Chapter 314: The Real Murderer

Long Chen rode to Mozhai. Bai Anning and Shen Tianhe had already arrived, and the police cordoned off the surrounding area.

"Where's Momei?"

Long Chen dismounted and asked.

When the people watching the excitement saw Long Chen coming, they all pointed at him privately, but Long Chen didn't bother to pay attention.

Bai Anning came over immediately and said: "She is dead and burnt to black. If she can be identified, it is her."

Last night, Mo's house suddenly caught fire, and Mo Mei was burned to death.

"Are there any survivors?"

Long Chen asked.

Shen Tianhe said: "There is only one boy over there."

Long Chen turned around and looked over. It was the boy who opened the door last night.

This boy was wrapped in an adult's clothes and had adult shoes on his feet, which were obviously given to him by Shen Tianhe.

"Have you eaten yet?"

Long Chen squatted down and wiped the dark stuff on the boy's face.

The boy looked at the house that was burned to ashes, shook his head in confusion, and nodded again.

Long Chen knew that this was due to excessive fright.

After dragging the boy to a breakfast shop on the street and sitting down, Long Chen ordered two bowls of mutton noodle soup.

When the boss saw Long Chen, his face looked a little ugly, and he immediately made two bowls and brought them over.

When the guests next to him saw Long Chen, they all dropped their copper coins and left.

Long Chen picked up the chopsticks to eat the noodles and said, "Eat it, it won't be cold when you're full."

The boy stupidly picked up the chopsticks, and without caring whether they were hot or not, picked up the noodles and put them in his mouth.

After finishing the noodles and the soup, the boy looked much better.

Long Chen put down his chopsticks and asked, "What happened last night?"

The boy replied: "I got up to pee at night and saw that Aunt Mo's room was on fire. I shouted that it was on fire, but no one paid attention to me. They were all burned to death."

Long Chen asked: "Are they all asleep? Why is no one paying attention to you?"

The boy shook his head and said, "I don't know, I sleep in the woodshed."

Long Chen asked again: "Did you see anyone?"

The boy still shook his head.

As soon as Long Chen found out about Mo Mei, he was killed and silenced. This shows that Long Chen's investigation was correct. The information about those women came from Mo Mei, and the murderer was destroying the clues.

"Are everyone in the house dead?"

Long Chen asked.

The boy shook his head and said, "I don't know."

This answer is normal, the scene is still being cleaned up, and many people were burned beyond recognition, even the servant could not recognize them.

"How long have you been following Aunt Mo?"

The boy counted the time and said, "About three years."

Long Chen asked: "In the past three years, is there anyone who had a good relationship with her and then left recently?"

The boy thought for a while and said, "I have a sister who studied midwifery with Aunt Mo and left some time ago."

Long Chen asked: "Where did you go?"

The boy shook his head and said, "I don't know. I just heard Aunt Mo mention it and said that she seemed to have entered the palace."

Entered the palace?

"Can you remember her face clearly?"

The boy immediately said: "Yes, she is very beautiful, very beautiful."

Long Chen immediately found Shen Tianhe and asked him to find the painter from the Yamen.

The Ministry of Punishment has professional painters who can draw images of wanted criminals.

Not long after, the painter came and drew a picture according to the boy's description.

"Yushi Bai, please leave this child to you. I will check whether this woman is still in the palace."

Bai Anning said: "Don't worry, sir, I will take good care of you."

Long Chen took the portrait and immediately returned to the palace.

When they arrived at Qiuxing Hall, Long Chen found Xiang Ning, Xiao'e and Xiao Daiyu.

"Do you know this person?"

Long Chen spread the portrait on the table.

Xiao'e recognized the person in the portrait at a glance and said, "Isn't this Nangong's Shuangshuang?"

Xiao Daiyu identified it carefully and said, "Yes, it's Shuangshuang!"

Xiang Ning also recognized her and asked, "Sir, why did you draw Shuangshuang's portrait? You don't... have a crush on her, do you?"

Long Chen had no time to joke and asked: "Are you sure?"

The three of them nodded seriously and said, "Yes, it's Shuangshuang!"

Long Chen immediately collected the portrait and headed to Nangong.

When I arrived at the door, I met Shangguan Xue head-on.

"General Long, why do you have time to come to our place?"

Shangguan Xue looked at Long Chen with a strange look.

Shangguan Xue must have some opinions when the body of Nangong's maid was dug up by Long Chen.

"I have something important to do and want to see Her Royal Highness the Princess."

Shangguanxue couldn't resist, so she said, "General, wait a moment and let me report."

Not long after, Shangguan Xue came out and said, "Princess, I have an invitation."

Long Chen followed Shangguan Xue into Di Xingwan's room. She was painting, and Tianze was accompanying her.

"Meet the princess."

Long Chen bowed.

When Di Xing saw Long Chen in the evening, he laughed and said, "How come General Long has time to come to my Nangong?"

Long Chen smiled and said: "I've always wanted to come, but I just couldn't find the time."

Emperor Xingwan put down his paintbrush and said with a sweet smile: "Is it because Fourth Sister refused to let me go?"

Long Chen smiled awkwardly and did not answer this question.

Tianze next to him always smiled and greeted Long Chen very politely.

"Why did you come to my place today?"

Di Xingwan stopped smiling and started talking about business.

The maid in her palace died in Qiuxing Palace. Emperor Xingwan has not told Long Chen about this matter.

Although Emperor Xingwan did not believe that Long Chen was the murderer, his palace maid died in Long Chen's courtyard. This matter must be explained, otherwise he would not be able to give an explanation to his servants.

"There is indeed something that the princess needs help with."

Long Chen took out the portrait and said: "I am assisting the Metropolitan Procuratorate in thoroughly investigating the flower-picking devil case. This Shuangshuang is an important witness. She is here with the princess. I want to see her."

Tianze's expression changed slightly, but then he calmed down.

Emperor Xingwan asked: "You mean, the murderer is this Shuangshuang?"

Long Chen told the truth: "There are serious suspicions, but I'm not sure. We can only know after interrogation."

Di Xingwan looked gloomy and said coldly: "Bring her here!"

Li Tianze wanted to go out, but was stopped by Di Xingwan's gaze.

Shangguanxue immediately went out to look for someone.

Not long after, a pretty palace maid came in and said, "I would like to pay my respects to Your Highness, Your Majesty."

Long Chen looked at Shuangshuang carefully. She had apricot eyes and peach cheeks and a graceful figure. She was indeed a beauty. No wonder the boy said she was beautiful.

Everyone in the room left, only Di Xingwan and Long Chen were left, not even Li Tianze could stay.

"Shuangshuang, General Long has something to ask you, and you must answer truthfully."

Di Xingwan's voice was cold and stern.

Shuangshuang hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed: "I don't know what mistake I have made. Please tell me, Princess."

Emperor Xingwan looked at Long Chen and motioned for Long Chen to interrogate him.

Long Chen nodded and asked, "Have you ever studied martial arts with Wenpo Momei from the north of the city?"

Shuangshuang's delicate body trembled and she replied: "Yes..."

Long Chen continued to ask: "Have you read Po Wen's birthday booklet?"

Shuangshuang's body was trembling and she didn't dare to reply.

Emperor Xingwan scolded angrily: "How dare you speak harshly, you humble servant!"

Shuangshuang knelt on the ground, crawled, and shrank into a little white rabbit. She was trembling all over, but she didn't speak.

Emperor Xingwan was furious: "There is indeed something wrong with this humble servant! How dare you commit murder under the eyes of this princess! General Long, I leave this girl to you!"

Long Chen nodded and said: "Thank you for your trust, princess. However, this matter is very important, so we still need to ask the Ministry of Punishment and the Metropolitan Procuratorate to enter the palace secretly to bring people in. My current status is not suitable either."

It's better to keep business private. Long Chen is also a suspect. It's not appropriate for him to take both of them away.

Di Xingwan sighed slightly. A few days ago, people from the Yamen entered Di Luoxi's bedroom, and now her bedroom has to be like this, which makes her feel very uncomfortable.

"Forget it, let's let the Metropolitan Procuratorate and the Ministry of Punishment pick up the person."

Emperor Xingwan shouted: "Xue'er!"

Shangguan Xue pushed the door in from outside and said, "Princess."

Emperor Xingwan said reluctantly: "Go to the Metropolitan Procuratorate to inform Yushi Bai and ask him to come in and pick up the person."

Shangguan Xue's heart skipped a beat. Although she had been mentally prepared just now, if she really wanted to take Shuangshuang away, the matter would be serious.

"yes!"

Shangguanxue turned around to leave, but Shuangshuang suddenly fell to the ground beside her, with black blood flowing from her mouth and nose.

"Princess, be careful!"

Shangguan Xue protected in front of Di Xingwan.

Long Chen leaned over to check and found that Shuangshuang had committed suicide by taking poison.

Li Tianze and his gang rushed in and shouted: "Here comes an assassin!"

The palace soon exploded, and everyone said that Shuangshuang was the murderer. She had killed several Ruyans, and she had also killed the people outside the palace.

People from the Metropolitan Procuratorate and the Ministry of Criminal Justice are also here. Shuangshuang is involved in the flower-picking devil's case, so they must come.

The body was transported to the Metropolitan Procuratorate for autopsy. It was found that Shuangshuang's death was caused by taking a highly toxic substance.

This girl already had poison in her mouth when she walked in. She knew the matter was about to be exposed.

After searching for so long, we finally found important clues related to the murderer, but unfortunately they were broken again.

In the back office of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, Long Chen sat in the room and continued to read the files, when Bai Anning came in from outside.

"General Long, I have something I want to discuss with you."

"Censor Bai, please speak!"

Bai Anning hesitated, but said it anyway.
