"I'm not saying anything, Madam Qin, could you please not be so horrifying every time?"
The county magistrate who had just picked up the corpse strode into the backyard of the county government office. He had been holding back for a long time and couldn't help but complain:
"The people of Qingshui Town are almost scared to death by the two dead men standing on the road!"
Just kill people, but leaving two dead bodies standing on the road is very perverted!
As the county magistrate's complaints were heard, the strange and awkward atmosphere between Qin Yao and County Magistrate Song in the small room was broken.
Qin Yao: "Don't get me wrong, it's just this thing, it should be the important evidence you want."
Qin Yao stuffed the red bellyband into Song Zhang's hand, clapped her hands, opened the door and went out.
She was really afraid that if she stayed for one more second, Song Zhang would dig a hole in the floor tiles of the county government office.
But then I thought about it again, and suddenly I saw a woman taking out a bellyband from her arms and preparing to stuff it into my hand. The scene was really scary.
Qin Yao shrugged, she understood.
Seeing the county magistrate walking in angrily, Qin Yao explained seriously:
"I didn't intentionally place the dead on the road, they just died too quickly to fall down in time."
The angry county magistrate: "."
Suddenly I felt deflated.
Seeing Song Zhang coming out of the hut with a strange look on his face, the county magistrate nodded to Qin Yao to express his apology, walked forward and reported the situation on his side to Song Zhang.
Song Zhang became curious again and wanted to go and see the fifteen killers.
The county magistrate recalled how he had vomited after watching it twice before, and advised: "It's already late today, why don't you watch it tomorrow?"
Song Zhang: No, he wants to see it now.
Seeing that he could not persuade him, the county magistrate just let him go.
Qin Yao and Yin Le stayed in the small hall and did not follow them. What's so good about a dead body, especially since she was the one who killed him.
As for the true appearance of those killers, she was not interested.
Soon, Song Zhanghe, the county magistrate, came back. His face was a little pale. His nerves were numbed by the repeated stimulation, but he did not vomit today.
This is a huge improvement, Song Zhang thought excitedly.
It was already very late, and even the strongest man in the county could not bear it any longer. He looked exhausted and took his leave first.
Song Zhang brought Qin Yao and Yin Le to his home.
The county magistrate’s wife is three years older than County Magistrate Song and is thirty-five this year.
The parents of the two families were close friends and they arranged a marriage for their child before he was born, agreeing that if it was a boy and a girl, they would get married in the future.
Unexpectedly, the county magistrate's wife was born first, and Song Zhang was born three years later.
But the two grew up together, and with their parents' matchmaking, their relationship is naturally special.
The affection between this childhood sweetheart couple is stronger than that of other couples. Privately, Song Zhang calls his wife "sister" and his wife calls Song Zhang "brother".
The last time Qin Yao sent the county magistrate back to the city and went to his house for a short visit, this middle-aged couple forced her to eat a lot of dog food. After she finished a cup of tea, they immediately slipped away.
The county magistrate's wife was generous and cheerful. She warmly entertained Qin Yao and Yin Le, arranged a guest room for them, and thoughtfully asked someone to prepare hot water for them to bathe.
Seeing that Qin Yao's clothes were dirty, she asked her daughter to take a set of her skirts and give it to Qin Yao to change.
The county magistrate and his wife got married early, and their eldest daughter is now fifteen years old.
Miss Song inherited her father's appearance and figure. She has a very heroic look and a tall stature. Her height is about the same as Qin Yao's.
Her clothes fit Qin Yao perfectly.
It was this goose yellow silk dress that made Qin Yao feel a little restrained.
It's too soft and delicate. I don't dare to wear it to kill people. I can't bear to let blood stain this beautiful dress!
The cry of an owl was heard outside the window. It was already midnight and Qin Yao was feeling sleepy. She put on her soft girlish clothes, covered herself with the quilt that the county magistrate's wife had scented with incense, and fell into a sound sleep.
Qin Yao got up at dawn the next day.
When you are a guest at someone else's house, you can't stay in bed like you do at home.
Song Zhang and Yin Le also got up early, and were talking in the flower hall accompanied by the county magistrate's wife.
Song Zhang explained the current situation to Yin Le in just a few words so that she could have a clear idea.
Because he was in a cozy flower hall and the county magistrate's wife was there to comfort him, Yin Le didn't feel like he was being interrogated at all. He completely relaxed and built up trust in the official in front of him.
Yin Le said: "As long as I know something, I will tell you everything I know."
"Okay!" Song Zhang said with relief: "With Miss Yue Niang's words, I feel relieved."
"But." He frowned, changed the subject, and sighed helplessly: "If only the poor women rescued from the brothel could be like you, Miss Yue Niang."
The rescued women were hesitant about their experiences in the brothel because they were concerned about their reputation and were unwilling to stand in court and be scrutinized.
Therefore, now Song Zhang has only Yin Le, the victim who is willing to testify in court.
Of course, the situation today is very different from yesterday.
With the poem written on the bellyband, the people behind Concubine Pan may not necessarily protect her.
Anyone who claims to be a clean civil servant will never allow their reputation to be damaged in the slightest.
Qin Yao came to the flower hall and saw Song Zhang looking very confident. She asked curiously:
"Sir, who is the person who wrote the poem?"
When Song Zhang heard the voice, he looked up and almost thought he had recognized the wrong person.
Is this girl in a delicate goose yellow silk dress Qin Yao who killed fifteen professional killers?
The county magistrate's wife stood up in surprise and said with a smile: "This dress looks really good on you, Yao Niang!"
Qin Yao smiled generously. She also thought it was very good. Apart from the delicate material, it was really beautiful.
Later, she could take out the silk cloth at home and ask her second sister-in-law to make her a fresher dress to wear.
Song Zhang suddenly remembered that Qin Yao was only twenty-one years old this year, not much older than his eldest daughter.
It was magical. In the past, he always felt like he was talking to a mature woman of the same age.
I forgot her real age.
But the focus now is not this. The case has not been concluded yet, and there are still many things to do before the trial begins.
Song Zhang did not directly answer Qin Yao's question. He said cryptically, "With this thing, no one will make it difficult for the Kaiyang County government to investigate Lady Pan."
Qin Yao nodded and understood that this Zhao Da was the protective umbrella for Lady Pan.
Seeing that Qin Yao had no intention of continuing to follow him, Song Zhang called Yin Le and the two of them went straight to the county government office.
He wanted to take Yin Le to persuade the rescued women, hoping that they could stand up and speak for themselves and let Concubine Pan get the punishment she deserved.
Moreover, several female corpses were dug up yesterday. One of them should be familiar to Yin Le, as she was the former courtesan Shaoyao.
According to the results of the examination conducted by Coroner Wang, there were not only a large amount of aphrodisiac residues in Shaoyao's body, but also a lot of highly toxic arsenic powder.
Moreover, on the night Yin Le escaped, Shaoyao was already two months pregnant.
As for whether she knew she was pregnant at the time, it is impossible to verify now that she is dead. (End of this chapter)
