Chapter 69 Pretend to be a ghost

Chapter 69 Pretending to be a ghost

Leng Moran glanced at her, ignored her expectant gaze, and said to the government servant beside him: "Take me to see Magistrate Song."

The yamen servant quickly and politely led the way.

Xiao Xixi curled her lips and felt unhappy, but she still followed silently.

When he saw Magistrate Song, Leng Moran handed him the portrait: "Check this person."

Magistrate Song did not ask any further questions and immediately ordered his men to investigate.

Leng Moran glanced at him and thought that the investigation should be quick, so he simply sat aside and waited for the news.

Magistrate Song was still restless at first, but when he saw that Leng Moran was really sitting and waiting, he gradually relaxed and began to handle official duties.

Xiao Xixi also learned how to dye tea with cold ink and wait.

Half an hour later, the yamen officer came back with the news and had checked Hai Daquan thoroughly.

He was just an idle young man in the village. He had no father or mother. He grew up eating the food of hundreds of families. He didn't cultivate the land properly. When he had no food, he went to help other people's homes and made ends meet.

Because there were no elders to take care of me, I didn't care about it, and I had no savings in my twenties. The house was dilapidated and not repaired, so I was left to eat and die.

In addition to this basic information, the government officials also found out that Hai Daquan often went to temples to offer incense and that he believed in gods and Buddhas.

After hearing this, County Magistrate Song asked cautiously: "Master Xiao, has Hai Daquan committed a crime?"

Leng Moran said: "We are still not sure yet. Please cooperate with me to find out the matter."

Magistrate Song immediately said: "Easy to say, easy to say. I wonder what Mr. Xiao will tell me to do?"

Leng Moran glanced at Xiao Xixi, who was holding a teacup and sipping tea.

Xiao Xixi noticed his gaze and looked back blankly, feeling a bad premonition.

What is the dog man planning?

In the middle of the night, a crescent moon hangs high in the sky, and Hexi Village is so quiet that only the rustling wind and the chirping of insects can be heard.

The three of them stood outside the decaying courtyard wall of the Hai Da family.

Xiao Xixi looked down helplessly at her long hair scattered in front of her body, and her clothes that were white and shiny under the moonlight.

"Can I really do this?" Xiao Xixi fiddled with her hair and asked uncomfortably.

Leng Moran looked at her, quite satisfied with his work, "Not bad, it's quite scary."

Xiao Xixi was too lazy to ask him again, but asked Feng Yan: "What do you think?"

Feng Yan looked at Leng Moran, then at Xiao Xixi, and chose to follow his prince's wishes and said: "Scary."

Xiao Xixi still felt unsure and asked again: "Are you really sure that Hai Daquan will be afraid? If he is not afraid, I will be in danger. I am a little girl with no power to restrain a chicken."

Leng Moran ignored her panic and said: "Don't worry, Feng Yan and I are guarding outside the window. If you are in danger, we will save you in time."

Xiao Xixi sighed and chose to give up the struggle. It is better to expect a dog man to feel sorry for her than to expect a pig to climb a tree. "Okay, then I'll go in."

She took a lamp from Feng Yan's hand and stepped over the collapsed courtyard wall. She even thought that such a courtyard wall should be kept for the New Year if it is not repaired.

The two people behind him followed silently.

Xiao Xixi walked to the door and pushed it tentatively.

The door actually opened and made a creaking sound.

Xiao Xixi: "..." Even the door bolt is a decoration.

Aren't you afraid of being stolen?

When I walked into the room, I realized that it could be described as a house with bare walls.

There is really no fear of being stolen, and even if a thief comes in, he will worry that there is no room to attack.

She took the lamp, walked to the bed, and looked at Hai Daquan, who was lying on the bed with his arms stretched out.

She turned to look at the two people standing outside the window, looked away helplessly, and raised her hand to pat Hai Daquan on the shoulder.

Hai Daquan moved, and Xiao Xixi immediately put the lamp in position, preparing to pretend to be a ghost and scare people.

As a result, the person on the bed just turned over and continued to sleep soundly.

After a false shot, Xiao Xixi lost her patience, raised her hand and slapped Hai Daquan twice on the face.

Hai Daquan was stunned. When he opened his eyes sleepily, he saw a woman in white with loose hair appearing in front of him.

Xiao Xixi put the lamp in front of her, shining the hair on her face, and asked in a faint voice: "Hai Daquan, why do you want to harm me?"

Hai Daquan completely recovered from his sleep and shrank his body towards the corner of the bed, "Who are you?"

"You killed me, so you don't remember me?"

Xiao Xixi's voice was not similar to Xinghua's, but Hai Daquan had just woken up at this time, and it was in the middle of the night, so he was very scared.

"Xinghua, I didn't mean to hurt you. I didn't mean it."

Xiao Xixi's heart sank, this person was really a murderer, he confessed so easily.

She sneered, and the laughter seemed even longer in the silent night, making Hai Da's whole body tremble.

"You hurt me and you said you didn't mean it?"

Hai Daquan was frightened and cried: "Xinghua, if you weren't with Tiejiang Hu, how could I accidentally hurt you! How can I be inferior to Tiejiang Hu? You actually chose him over me."

Xiao Xixi took a look at Hai Daquan, who was short and thin, with dark and rough skin, and didn't look very good...

Where did he get the courage to think that he was better than Tiejiang Hu?

External conditions and internal conditions are nowhere better than good?

Xiao Xixi almost got into trouble, so she adjusted her mood and said: "I died unjustly, and since you don't repent, then I will take you away with me."

As he said that, he moved closer and pinched his neck.

Hai Daquan immediately covered his face: "Xinghua, please forgive me. How much paper money will I give you? Please forgive me."

Having achieved his goal, Leng Moran did not delay any further and asked Feng Yan to bring Xiao Xixi out.

Hai Daquan was sobbing, and when he saw that there was no movement around him, he looked up again, and there was no one in front of him.

He thought it was an hallucination and bravely stood up. However, he found a basket of paper money outside the door and was so frightened that he sat down on the ground.

After the three of them walked away, Xiao Xixi still had some unfinished thoughts.

"I want to say a few more words."

"The words have already been laid out. If you say more, it will be easy to reveal the truth."

Xiao Xixi couldn't help but sigh: "Okay, I can finally have a good sleep when I go back."

Leng Moran said expressionlessly: "Hai Daquan should go to the crime scene tomorrow morning to burn paper money for Xinghua."

"Why tomorrow morning?"

"He is timid and does not dare to go out and burn paper money in the middle of the night. But he feels guilty and does not dare to be seen. So at dawn tomorrow, he will most likely go to the place where Xinghua was killed to burn paper money."

"What if he burns it in his yard now?"

Leng Moran looked at her like an idiot, "Do you think he still wants to see Xinghua in his yard?"

Xiao Xixi immediately shook her head, "I understand, are we going to guard it?"

"No, the Yamen has sent someone over. We can just wait for the news tomorrow."

Back at the rented yard, Leng Moran ordered Feng Yan to boil water. Xiao Xixi looked at him in white clothes with her hair loose.

Leng Moran coughed lightly: "You can go take a shower and change clothes later to get rid of bad luck."

Xiao Xixi didn't expect that Leng Moran would still care about her, and she couldn't hide the surprise in her eyes, "Thank you for your concern, husband!"

Leng Moran, who saw her voice, couldn't help but wonder, was his impression in her heart so bad?
