Chapter 146: Tianming Pavilion Incident Book - A Bloody Case Caused by a Copper Coin
The man who came this time was of medium build, with a big head and thick neck.
As soon as he entered the room, his eyes were glued to Mu Hongling who came forward to greet him. He was stunned for a moment until he saw the scar on her face, and then he touched his chin with a meaningful look on his face.
A trace of disgust flashed across Mu Hongling's eyes, but her expression remained unchanged:
"Sir, are you here to ask for divination?"
The man walked forward with a playful smile and stretched out his hand towards Mu Hongling's slender waist:
"Yes, my little beauty, how about you help your brother to tell his fortune?"
Mu Hongling took a wrong step to avoid it and said calmly:
"The one who has the ability to tell fortunes is not me, but our Pavilion Master Qingyun Zhenren. Please follow me, sir."
The man's attack was in vain, and a bit of anger appeared on his face:
"What's wrong with touching me? You little bitch, are you giving me face? With your ugly face, it's your blessing that I'm willing to touch you. Don't be so shameless!"
As he said that, he walked forward and tried to touch Mu Hongling again.
Suddenly, a figure rushed over and stood in front of Mu Hongling, punching the man from top to bottom, knocking him to the ground with a "bang".
Qing Jue put one hand on his waist and pointed at him and cursed:
"What the hell! He looks like a toad and wants to make moves on Sister Hong Ling!"
"Who the hell dares...ah!"
The man stood up, cursing, but Qingjue stepped on his hand and he screamed.
"Try to curse me again if you dare? I'll cut off your tongue!"
"I don't dare, I don't dare, I was just joking, please spare me! I'm leaving now!"
The man suppressed the hatred in his heart and begged for mercy in a low voice.
As long as you have the green mountains, you will never run out of firewood. Let’s not bother with this pretty boy for now. We’ll settle the score later!
Seeing him begging for mercy, Qingjue let go of his feet and let him stand up.
The man was about to turn around when suddenly a clear voice came from upstairs:
"Don't you want to ask for divination? Bring him over here."
When he looked up, he saw a stunningly beautiful woman standing by the railing.
The man's eyes widened, he quickly wiped his saliva and said with a smile:
"Yes, yes, I'm here to ask for divination."
Qingjue widened his eyes:
"No, Pavilion Master, are you going to count this kind of person too?"
"In this Tianming Pavilion, anyone who can enter is destined to come in. There is no reason to refuse guests." Yun Qingqing raised the corners of her lips with a meaningful arc, glanced at the man lightly, turned around and walked into the room.
The man smiled triumphantly:
"Hey, did you hear that? Your Pavilion Master has spoken, why don't you lead the way!"
"Are you blind? The door is right above, can't you walk by yourself?" Qingjue rolled his eyes fiercely, turned around and walked away angrily.
Mu Hongling shook her head and said calmly:
"Come with me."
This time the man followed her obediently and came in front of Yun Qingqing.
"Tell me, what do you want to be?" Yun Qingqing asked expressionlessly, ignoring the man's frivolous look.
The man laughed:
"Whatever! I just wandered over here and suddenly found a fortune-telling shop, so I came in to have some fun. You can decide what you think I'm suitable for, and that's up to you!"
"Okay, then I'll read your face, but if the divination is not negative, how much are you willing to pay?"
The man's eyes rolled around, he rummaged through his pockets and slapped them on the table:
"One copper coin, can it be counted?"
"Can."
Yun Qingqing curled her lips slightly and said while looking at his face.
"Your whites of your eyes are all around you, your peaks are standing alone, your nose is deep and furrowed, and your cheekbones are exposed. This indicates that you are selfish and violent. Your mouth is protruding and the corners of your mouth are drooping. You are very likely to stab someone in the back."
The man's face changed:
"Nonsense! I think you don't know anything at all and you are just trying to cheat people!"
Yun Qingqing remained unmoved and continued:
"Your temples are dark blue, a sign of imprisonment. Your eyebrows are short and thick with reverse hairs, and your eyes are evil. All these features indicate that you have killed someone, and it was recently."
"I advise you to surrender as soon as possible. Maybe you can get a lighter sentence. Otherwise, you will be executed soon."
"Bullshit!" The man slammed the table and stood up, saying angrily, "How dare you, woman, frame me? I must..."
Before he could finish his words, the door was suddenly pushed open, and a dark-skinned young man dressed in the clothes of a constable rushed in, followed by two yamen runners and a girl from Tianming Pavilion who was responsible for leading the way.
"Someone reported that a murderer was found here. Come with me to the government office!"
The person who came was the black-skinned constable, Yan Haochu.
When the man saw the police uniform on him, his face changed and he denied it on the spot:
"Sir, you can't listen to this little girl's one-sided words! I have always been law-abiding, how could I have committed a crime!"
Yan Haochu glanced at him, strode towards Yun Qingqing, and bowed to her:
"Master Qingyun, is this the person?"
Seeing Yun Qingqing nod, he waved his hand:
"Take him up!"
Two officers immediately rushed over and held the man on the left and right. The man struggled in panic and said:
"Why are you arresting me? Don't the government arrest people without evidence? I don't accept it! I want to appeal!"
Yun Qingqing sneered, pinched her fingers on the spot, and said to Yan Haochu:
"There is a dry well hidden under the weeds in his backyard. You can send someone to check it out."
The man had a look of discontent and indignation just now, but his expression turned pale when he heard these words.
"No... Sir, there is a dry well in my backyard, but, but you know that since it is a dry well, I usually don't check it! Even if I find something in it, it definitely wasn't done by me!"
"Someone must be trying to frame me...Yes, that's definitely the case!"
His eyes darted around, and suddenly he looked at Yun Qingqing with sudden realization:
"I don't even know this woman. How does she know what my family is like? And how can she accuse me of murder without any evidence?"
"She must have been hired by my enemy to frame me! If there really was something in the dry well, she must have done it secretly when I was not paying attention! Sir, please arrest her and interrogate her!"
"Sir, I am innocent. You must stand up for me!"
Yan Haochu frowned and turned to Yun Qingqing:
"I'm afraid this guy won't cry until he sees the coffin. Master, can you figure out any evidence to prove his crime?"
Yun Qingqing nodded and pinched her fingers:
"The evil spirit is hiding in the east. Take your men to the east room of his house and search it carefully. The murder weapon must be there, and it is something he usually uses."
"Also, this person committed the crime for money. All you need to do is find out the identity of the deceased and contact his family to find out what property he lost. You will find evidence in the criminal's home."
"You...how do you know everything..." After hearing her words, the man's legs went limp and he fell to the ground.
Yan Haochu sneered:
"Have you heard about the serial murder case that was solved a few days ago? It was Master Qingyun who helped solve it with his amazing foresight! What does your little trick count for?"
The man regretted it so much that his intestines turned green. He just happened to see this shop while shopping, so why was he so obsessed with fortune-telling?
He was just thinking about making a windfall, and was in such a good mood that he wanted to calculate whether his fortune was good recently, but he ended up including himself in the calculation!
The bailiffs escorted the dejected suspect away.
Yan Haochu fell behind a few steps and turned back to ask:
"Master, what do you think of my current fortune?"
The talisman that Yun Qingqing gave him last time was still intact, and he hadn't encountered any bad luck recently. But she had said before that his fortune was fluctuating between good and bad luck, so he was still unsure and wanted to confirm it again.
Yun Qingqing smiled calmly:
"If it weren't you who came here today, I would have to go to the government office with you and spend a lot of time talking. I'll just give you a suggestion for free."
