Chapter 10 The Corpses Are Dancing



Leng Lie heard that the voice following his boss was a woman's.

Late at night, a woman and her boss walked out of the B&B together. What a magical scene!

Moreover, Ren Tingxi also gave her a bag that looked like a tool bag that an electrician carries when going out, which was out of place with his suit and tie.

Every time he went out, carrying Lan Xiaolan's backpack had become a habit that Ren Tingxi couldn't change. It was just that before, it was mostly a school bag, but now it was a tool bag.

The dim light from the alley entrance cast a shadow on Lan Xiaolan. She had a neatly styled bun, wore a light grey T-shirt, dark blue jeans with dungarees, and a pair of waterproof black sneakers.

She wore no makeup at all, and her face was not made up at all. She was 168cm tall, not too tall, but of medium build. She looked very fresh and elegant.

Leng Leng's eyes lit up.

There are many women who walk around Ren Tingxi or pursue him. Some are tall and curvy; some are elegant and quiet after studying abroad; some are stunning and sensual in business occasions; and some are even cute and lovely.

But it was the first time that Leng Leng had seen Lan Xiaolan as ordinary and plain as this.

Ren Tingxi was carrying a backpack for a girl. This was the first time he had seen this.

Walking out of a hotel or B&B with a girl late at night was even more of a first time meeting her.

I didn't expect that the boss actually likes this type.

"You drive this car and follow us," Ren Tingxi knocked on the Lamborghini that Leng Leng drove over and said, "I'll take her and drive that one." He then pointed to the Audi that he drove when he came.

Ren Tingxi opened the passenger door of the Audi for Lan Xiaolan and invited her in. Then he sat in the driver's seat and drove towards the construction site.

It was the first time Leng Leng saw Ren Tingxi driving for someone else.

Moreover, that inconspicuous Audi is the boss's private car. On weekdays, it will never carry anyone other than Ren Tingxi himself.

Leng Leng himself had never ridden in Ren Tingxi's Audi. This unremarkable girl was actually invited by the boss to sit in the passenger seat of his most beloved car.

Who is this girl? She seems to be a very important person. She actually managed to win over his cold and unyielding boss.

It takes only a few minutes to drive to the construction site.

The previously excavated cemetery had only been cordoned off, but now it was surrounded by water barriers. The only entrance and exit was still guarded by police.

Ren Tingxi left the Lamborghini to Leng Leng and instructed, "You stay here and take Miss Lan back home after you're done. Remember, if anything happens, call me immediately."

"Don't worry, boss. I will inform you as soon as there is anything happening at the construction site."

"It's not about the construction site, it's about her." Ren Tingxi looked at Lan Xiaolan with a firm look: "If she loses a hair, you will resign."

Leng Lie shuddered with fear and wiped the sweat from his forehead. "Boss, is it okay for you to go to Mr. Cai's place alone at night?"

"I'm not a little white rabbit. I won't be taken away by the big bad wolf. What should I be afraid of?"

"Then who is the little white rabbit?"

"She's the little white rabbit that will be snatched away by the big bad wolf. You better follow me closely."

Lan Xiaolan came to the cemetery and saw twelve coffins arranged in three rows and four columns, neatly placed there.

Twelve bodies were dug out in one day, and the scene was quite spectacular.

After working all day, everyone went home to rest. Only Professor Bai and Hu Wenjuan were left to sort out the excavated artifacts and do some finishing work.

Lan Xiaolan jumped into the grave, turned on the light, and carefully observed each corpse.

"Xiaolan, why are you here?" Professor Bai was a little surprised to see Lan Xiaolan.

Hu Wenjuan glanced at Lan Xiaolan and said unhappily, "Everyone has been busy here all day, and you've just slept all day."

After hearing what Hu Wenjuan said, Lan Xiaolan lowered her head in shame.

Professor Bai patted her shoulder and said, "Don't say that. Last night you worked all night and exhumed three bodies by yourself. We only had ten people here and only exhumed nine. You're actually more efficient."

Lan Xiaolan smiled and said, "Professor, what's going on here?"

"There were twelve bodies in total, all women aged between 15 and 25. Each coffin contained several burial objects, but apart from some silver ingots, bamboo slips, and the Hetian jade ring you found, there were almost no other valuable artifacts."

Hu Wenjuan added: "Black melon and fruit seeds were found in coffins 7 to 11. Their appearance is consistent with the substances found in the lungs and abdomen of the corpses."

Lan Xiaolan picked up the transparent storage bag containing the black seed samples and took a look. "So, these girls all died of food poisoning, and the murder weapon was these seeds."

"That's true, but not entirely." Professor Bai took out the notebook where he recorded the detailed records of the corpses. "The fifth corpse, the human bones are intact, with no signs of poisoning."

"But..." Professor Bai sighed, "Her neck bones are broken. The forensic examination showed that this was an injury sustained during her lifetime."

"Then she was strangled to death," Lan Xiaolan said in shock. Professor Bai and Hu Wenjuan both nodded in agreement.

It was truly cruel. These young girls, at such a young age, were poisoned to death en masse. The only girl who hadn't eaten any poisonous fruit was strangled to death.
