A powerful figure from another world is assassinated and their body shrinks to the size of a child.
They are taken in by the Li family and become the center of everyone's adoration.
Li Wenyi nodded and said, "Be careful in the next few days and try not to leave the county government office. If there is any progress in this case, I will notify you in time."
"Thank you very much, sir." Ye Shuang said with a smile, then turned and left.
On the contrary, Yuwen Leng glanced at Ma Rencai before following Ye Shuang away.
Ye Shuang slowly walked out of the courtyard. Hearing Yuwen Leng following behind, she curled her lips and said, "I see you came with Ma Rencai today. How's it going?"
“We only chatted briefly, but I asked him to come to me if the yamen needed manpower so I could earn some extra money, and he agreed.” Yuwen Leng smiled, his eyes full of amusement. “Just as you said, I think Ma Rencai will do his best to help me find a job that can earn me some extra money.”
Ye Shuang glanced at Yuwen Leng and said, "In that case, we won't be able to use the mansion you bought. It seems we'll have to stay at the inn for a while longer."
Yuwen Leng was shocked: "Could it be that you had planned everything about the corpse in advance? Girl, you're amazing!"
As expected of a disciple of the Calculation Heaven Sect!
Ye Shuang glanced at him, her expression inscrutable. It was just a trivial matter; what was so remarkable about it? Li Wenyi happened to be the county magistrate, and there just happened to be a corpse in that house. She had merely brought the corpse back to light; whether it was a plan or not, it couldn't really be considered a plan, could it?
News of the floating corpse in the well spread quickly, causing a great stir in the otherwise peaceful town. The discovery of the corpse's identity further horrified everyone in town.
The corpse was none other than the former county magistrate, Lord Ren!
This is no small matter. Lord Ren was transferred to a lateral position, and there was no word from the county that he had not yet taken office. How come after so long, his body is here?
Even Ye Shuang was a little curious. Shouldn't this place be a hot potato? Shouldn't he be happy to be transferred to another post after getting rid of this county magistrate position? Is he really that reluctant to leave? Or is he unable to leave?
Is there anything in this county that she doesn't know?
Ye Shuang used her divine sense to search the entire county inch by inch. When she finally found a place in the county, she laughed mockingly. So that's how it is. No wonder she was killed as soon as she left. Even her body couldn't leave after death. The desire for power is blinding!
With the help of her divine sense, she roughly understood the cause and effect, but unfortunately she could not tell Li Wenyi, and could only let them investigate little by little.
This is a real problem for Ye Shuang and her group. The inn needs a lot of money every day. Even if they have a lot of money and can squander it as they please, they are afraid that they will be exposed in front of Li Wenyi and Ma Rencai.
Li Wenyi, considering that they were running low on funds, came to their door to discuss solutions: "The yamen needs a constable who knows martial arts, which would be very suitable for Guard Leng. But what would Miss Ye do?"
How could Yuwen Leng dare to let Ye Shuang actually make money? He quickly said, "I suppose being a constable earns quite a bit of silver. My young lady doesn't spend much money in a month."
Ye Shuang looked at Li Wenyi with a smile and said, "Thank you for your kindness, Brother Li. I will do some needlework at home to sell, which should help supplement the family income."
Li Wenyi realized he had misspoke. A young lady like Ye Shuang, even if her family had fallen on hard times and she was reduced to this state, would still have guards protecting her. Why would she lower herself to show her face in public?
