Chapter 84 It wasn't her who killed him, it was her sister
Jiusu then asked about the cause of Miao Paner's family's death.
They couldn't give a definite answer, so she suppressed her doubts and asked, "Is Miao Pan'er close to you? Does she have any friends?"
The woman said, "She's always home alone. When she's bullied, she won't talk or communicate. On weekdays, when we call her, she runs away like a rabbit. I still don't believe she killed anyone."
Someone added: "However, there was once a man who was getting along well with Miao Pan'er and they almost got married. Unfortunately, Miao Pan'er found out that he was dating a woman. Since then, Miao Pan'er no longer trusts men. She must have been deeply hurt."
"Even more coincidentally, the man died the next day." After she finished speaking, her heart skipped a beat as she speculated in fear, "Could this also be Miao Pan'er's murder?"
“…”
The prefect was rescued from the secret passage. He shed two lines of tears, knelt on the ground, grabbed the corner of Yang Xu's clothes, and cried out: "My lord, I have a miserable life. I was almost killed by a violent murderer. He is so terrible, like a devil..."
Yang Xu rubbed his brows and soothed him patiently.
"Sir Wei, I know you've been wronged. I will definitely tell His Majesty about your contributions."
"Thank you, sir. Woo woo woo..." The prefect wiped his tears and slowly stood up. He tilted his head and saw the seriously injured girl. He asked with pity, "Were you also captured? But why did the murderer start killing women?"
Miao Paner showed her bloody teeth.
The prefect smiled back awkwardly, "Are you okay?"
"Mr. Prefect." Jiusu floated over and said softly, "Is it possible that Miao Pan'er is the murderer?"
The prefect gasped, pointed in disbelief, and asked, "She? She's the murderer? It seemed like... I heard a woman's voice. Oh my god, it's you, little bitch, who wants to kill me? Come on, come here."
Originally, Miao Pan'er was very calm, but when she heard the provocation, she kept struggling to break free from the comfortable ropes on her body and rushed towards the prefect.
"Kill you!"
"Ah! Murder!" The prefect was so frightened that he ran to Yang Xu's side and hid behind him in fear, "Sir, she wants to kill me."
Yang Xu put his hands behind his back and frowned.
"Master Wei, just don't provoke him."
Miao Pan'er was escorted out, chained. She looked up at her neighbors, three or four meters away. She opened her mouth, but saw them retreating in fear. Some children were so frightened that they started to cry. "Haha."
A sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth, and his heart, which had just softened, immediately hardened again.
This group of people deserve to die.
Jia Chun stopped his wife and could only protect her, "I'm not dead, am I? Stop crying, let's go home and be obedient."
He was really afraid that this devil woman would go crazy and hurt his wife.
The woman, with tears in her eyes, angrily said, "Why did you kill my man, you devil!"
Miao Pan'er recognized Jia Chun, the man she had carefully provoked. She looked at the woman, a strange look in her eyes. She licked the wound at the corner of her mouth and said, "He drinks and doesn't come home, leaving you and the child at home. He's not a good man, nor a good father. I'll kill him and set you free. Isn't that good?"
The woman yelled, "He's a good man and a good father. Who are you to make decisions for us? Because of you, I almost lost my man, and my child almost lost his father! He went out drinking and talking business, working himself to death every day to make money to support the family, and yet he almost died at your hands!"
A pregnant woman rushed out from the crowd. Her name was Hong Lan, and she was the wife of the previous deceased.
Hong Lan grabbed Miao Pan'er by the collar and shook her non-stop. Not feeling satisfied enough, she started beating her harder, "Why don't you just die!"
Mrs. Jia also went up to beat him, and the families of other victims also swarmed over.
Yang Xu frowned, "Quick, separate them quickly. The murderer is injured, but she's still in danger. Be careful, she might go berserk."
The guards separated Miao Pan'er and the victim, standing in the middle for fear of another conflict, while Yang Xu stood aside and watched quietly. He had been investigating cases for many years and thought his heart would become cold, but every time he saw such a scene.
It will still be very uncomfortable.
And always hate the murderer.
A hint of sadness lingered between Yang Xu's brows. He said in a deep voice, "Their family members have passed away. Let them vent their anger. Send the prefect back to rest, and personally go and take his wife home."
On the side, Jiusu shook his head and said, "Some are scumbags, but their crimes don't deserve the death penalty. They have destroyed several families."
"Yeah." Jiang Jing pursed his lips and thought for a long time, not knowing what to say. Some things have already happened and cannot be comforted or evaluated. If he can get through it, maybe he can survive.
Or perhaps, the Jiang family, exiled, once lived in darkness. Initially, the four members of the family contemplated death, but their family members by their side wouldn't allow them to. What held them together? Perhaps it was family? If the family fell apart, how would they survive?
The two looked at each other and looked towards the place where the quarrel was happening in front.
Hong Lan gasped for breath, clutching her stomach, her face pale as she collapsed to the ground. She asked desperately, "Why did you kill my man? He's such a good man, and my baby is about to be born. How are you going to let us live? How can you, a little girl, be so cruel?"
Miao Paner didn't understand.
Why are these women so stupid? They cry even though the man deserves to die.
She said calmly: "Your man was talking to another woman at night, so he deserves to die. I killed him to help you vent your anger, isn't that good?"
The girl called 'the other woman' also came.
The girl helped Hong Lan up. Wiping her tears, she said in disbelief, "Kui Ge only asked me to borrow some money because my sister-in-law was about to give birth and needed to prepare things. And you killed Kui Ge without knowing right or wrong. You are simply insane!"
The better a man treats Hong Lan, the more painful her heart becomes.
"Wow, my parents are dead, and you're dead too. You left me and my child and just left like that. How are we supposed to live..."
The cries continued, and Mrs. Jia couldn't help but feel relieved. She looked at Hong Lan, felt pity for her, helped her up and said, "I will buy you a maid to serve you, and I will give you money to support your children's education. Don't cry, it's not good for your health."
"Thank you...thank you..." Hong Lan said with a choked voice.
——
In the prison.
The county magistrate rubbed his beard in embarrassment, looking at the woman huddled in the corner. He didn't know what to do. He could only go to Lord Yang and say, "Miao Pan'er, you seem different now. You're not as impatient anymore, and you're afraid of everyone you see. It's like you're not the arrogant murderer from last night."
Yang Xu said, "She must be faking it! Was she tortured?"
The county magistrate nodded, handed over the record of the conversation, and sighed.
"She doesn't look like she's pretending, like she really didn't do these things. Oh, by the way, she also said that it wasn't her who killed him, but her sister."
