Chapter 87 The Sky Collapses

In just a stick of incense, Ye Linghan arrived.

Su Xing was surprised, but couldn't help but complain in his heart, was Ye Linghan here so quickly because he was concerned about the case, or was he afraid of being slapped in the face?

"Greetings, the Regent." Su Xing suppressed his inner complaints and bowed respectfully.

"What's the matter?" In addition to the usual coldness and impatience in Ye Linghan's eyes, there seemed to be something more that was not there usually.

When Su Xing saw Ye Linghan's gaze, he was like a mouse seeing a cat, and his confidence in finding the clues was immediately lost.

He reported in a timid and obedient manner: "Your Majesty, there is no problem with the cause of death of the deceased, but I heard from Lord Liu that the deceased had a serious head injury when he was a child, but I did not see any scars on the deceased's head, so I suspect..."

Ye Linghan narrowed his deep eyes slightly. He stared at Su Xing's fair and handsome face for a while before he said coldly: "Do you suspect that he is not Xia Yunjie?"

"Yes." Su Xing responded quickly.

Ye Linghan was silent for a moment, then looked around and asked unhappily, "Where's Liu Yan?"

"Master Liu, go to Xia's house and find a servant who knows the situation." Su Xing was afraid that Ye Linghan would blame Liu Yan for taking the initiative, so he clarified: "It was... I asked Master Liu to go."

Ye Linghan didn't understand why Su Xing emphasized this point at first, but after he understood, he sneered sarcastically: "You dare to order anyone around."

Su Xing trembled and hurriedly admitted his mistake: "I deserve to die! Please calm down, Regent!"

The situation was urgent at the time and he didn't think too much about it.

Now that I think about it, I should wait until Ye Linghan arrives before making any arrangements...

Ye Linghan didn't care about it anymore. He just snorted in displeasure, then walked to the corpse and looked at it carefully.

Su Xing didn't dare to disturb him, and quietly took a step back to make more space for Ye Linghan.

Suddenly, he saw Ye Linghan reaching out his hand towards the corpse's head. After a slight pause, he suddenly realized what Ye Linghan wanted to do.

"Prince Regent." Su Xing exclaimed, strode forward and said, "Let me do it, don't dirty your hands."

He couldn't bear to see such a beautiful hand touching the corpse.

Ye Linghan's slender fingers paused slightly, then he glanced at Su Xing meaningfully.

He didn't say anything, but slowly withdrew his hand.

"Please look, Regent." Su Xing had already parted the hair of the corpse and gradually showed it to Ye Linghan: "Lord Liu didn't say where the injury was specifically, so I..."

"On the left temple." Ye Ling interrupted coldly.

Su Xing was stunned and looked at Ye Linghan in disbelief.

He wanted to ask how you knew that, but Ye Linghan glared at him impatiently.

Su Xing was a little confused. Why was he glaring at him?

Seeing that the impatience in Ye Linghan's eyes was about to escalate, Su Xing finally reacted and quickly reached out to pull open the left side of the corpse's head.

Su Xing had checked long ago and knew there was nothing here, so he waited patiently for Ye Linghan to check.

Because the area to be inspected was small, the two men were standing very close to each other, with both of them bending over and lowering their heads. From a distance, it looked like the two of them were whispering with their heads put together.

Su Xing was able to remain calm at first, but Ye Linghan had not yet finished checking him, and coupled with the strong sense of oppression from Ye Linghan, Su Xing gradually couldn't hold on any longer.

Without moving his upper body, he quietly moved his feet to the side, and accidentally bumped into the foot of the morgue bed.

He suddenly lost his balance, and with no support for his hands, his upper body immediately fell towards Ye Linghan.

Su Xing was so frightened that he almost lost his soul. He tried every possible way and used all his strength to pull his body back, even using his mouth to exert force.

At this moment, Ye Linghan heard the noise and turned his head unhappily, and saw Su Xing pouting his moist red lips and looking at him...

Ye Linghan had never encountered such a situation before and was frozen.

As a result, Su Xing's red lips kissed Ye Linghan's cheek firmly...

For a moment, the world seemed to stand still...

Su Xing's eyes were wide open like a patient with hyperthyroidism, and the expression in his eyes changed constantly, from shock to disbelief, from horror to despair, and finally to dead silence.

Ye Linghan's expression was much simpler. He was stiff from beginning to end, as if someone had pressed his acupoints and he had no reaction at all.

Su Xing felt like the sky had fallen. He felt that now it was no longer a question of life or death, but rather how to face it?

The worst thing was that at this moment, his little heart, which had been staying well in his chest, suddenly started beating so fast as if it was risking its life!

The blood in the body suddenly accelerated, and from the face to the neck and even the whole body, it felt like it was being burned by fire.

God, he was willing to exchange his next life for a solution to this horrific situation.

Please God help him for once!

I don’t know if God heard Su Xing’s plea, but at this moment, Liu Yan rushed back from outside.

Fortunately, due to the angle, in Liu Yan's view, Su Xing and Ye Linghan looked like they were studying a problem around a corpse, and there was nothing unusual at all.

"Greetings, the Regent." Liu Yan was afraid of disturbing Ye Linghan and the others, so his tone was careful and cautious.

As if they had discussed it beforehand, Su Xing and Ye Linghan leaned back at the same time, and then each took a step back.

However, Su Xing quickly lowered his head and pinched the flesh of his thighs tightly with both hands to prevent himself from fainting.

Ye Linghan lowered his eyes for a moment, then turned to look at Liu Yan: "Have you brought the person?"

Ye Linghan's voice sounded the same as usual at first, but if you listen carefully, you can find that the voice was a little hoarse the moment it came out...

"Reporting to the Regent." Liu Yan replied respectfully: "I have brought it, it is at the door."

After saying that, he raised his hand towards the door, and immediately a guard came in with three timid people.

"Greetings, Lord Regent..." The three of them knelt at the same time, their bodies and voices trembling.

Ye Linghan pointed at the oldest woman and asked, "Who are you to Xia Yunjie?"

The woman shuddered and kowtowed, saying, "Your Majesty, I was your wet nurse."

"Did you raise him?" Ye Linghan asked coldly.

"Yes..." The woman put her head on the ground and dared not raise it.

"Go and see if he is your son."

Although the woman was afraid, she dared not disobey. She kowtowed again, then hurriedly got up and stumbled towards the corpse.

The moment she saw the corpse, her tears immediately flowed out and she opened her mouth to cry bitterly.

But then she thought of something and hurriedly covered her mouth.

Because she was so sad, she lowered her head for a while before looking up at the corpse again and walking closer.

Su Xing gradually forgot about the shocking incident and focused his attention on the case.

He didn't know what conclusion the woman would draw, and he couldn't help but become nervous.

The sadness on the woman's face was so real that it didn't seem like an act. Especially when she saw the horrific wound on the corpse's chest, she could no longer control herself and burst into tears.

The woman reached out her trembling hand and gently stroked the dead man's face as if she was looking at her own child.

Suddenly, her hands froze.
