Chapter 165 Tasteless
"vomit--"
When Zhan Luochen saw the white bones and corpses, he couldn't control his nausea and quickly turned around and ran out.
Jiang Yunxi walked over directly. Some of the corpses had completely rotted away, leaving only bones. Some were completely rotten, some were moderately rotten, and some were just beginning to rot.
These corpses all had one thing in common: their faces were peeled off, their clothes were intact, and there were no wounds on their bodies.
"All of you get out. The bodies are rotting and have too many bacteria." Jiang Yunxi said. She wanted to carefully examine the bodies. There were more than a dozen young women. Who could be so cruel?
Without exception, they all died in agony.
Those who killed them were so cruel.
"What about you?" Zhan Beiyuan frowned.
"I'll cover my mouth and nose with a handkerchief." Jiang Yunxi took out the handkerchief she carried with her and tied it around her face. She had to be careful as she was going to get closer for the inspection.
Zhan Beiyuan signaled Qu Xinwen to go out.
Qu Xinwen left quickly.
Zhan Beiyuan took out a handkerchief and covered his mouth and nose, "I am here to watch your examination."
Jiang Yunxi: “…”
She said nothing more and concentrated on examining the bodies on the ground. They were neatly placed in this room after death. It seemed that the murderer knew that no one usually came here, so he dared to be so unscrupulous.
If Zhan Luochen hadn't bought this house, who knows when these bodies would have been discovered.
Jiang Yunxi was very quick. She stood up, glanced at Zhan Beiyuan, and gestured to leave.
The two of them went out quickly.
Zhan Luochen saw them coming out and hurried forward, "Are you checking the bodies inside?"
Jiang Yunxi took off the handkerchief on her face and asked, "Do you feel anything strange?"
Zhan Luochen shook his head, "I can't tell."
"There is no smell of decay." Zhan Beiyuan said. He had seen rotten corpses before, but the smell was there before he got close. But he didn't smell it in the house just now.
Jiang Yunxi gave him an admiring look. "That's right, there's no smell at all. Whoever killed them must have used something to keep the bodies from smelling bad, otherwise people nearby would have smelled it long ago."
"What is so powerful?" Zhan Luochen asked curiously.
"I don't know." Jiang Yunxi shrugged. She didn't find anything on the bodies when she checked them just now.
Zhan Luochen: "..."
Jiang Yunxi looked at Qu Xinwen and said, "Sir Qu, don't move the bodies yet. Send someone to guard this place. I'll come back to check later."
Qu Xinwen: "Okay."
He listened to her.
"They have lost their reputations. Can we find out their backgrounds?" Jiang Yunxi asked.
"Let Lord Qu go back to the government office first to see if anyone has reported a missing woman in the family. If so, you can ask those who reported the case to come and confirm." Zhan Beiyuan said.
If no one reports the crime, it will be difficult to investigate.
"I will investigate immediately after I return." Qu Xinwen said seriously. More than a dozen bodies are not a small number. In recent months, it seems that no one else has come to the Jingzhao Yinfu to report that a woman is missing.
Previously, there was only the case of missing children in Futianfang.
"How did Yu Qingwan know for sure?" Jiang Yunxi asked.
"The Sixth Prince sent someone to the Jingzhao Yin Mansion to report the case. When I arrived, I saw that it was a young woman dressed in luxurious clothes. Thinking that the daughter of the Minister of Revenue was missing, I asked him to come over. Only then did I confirm that it was Miss Yu."
Qu Xinwen said quickly.
Otherwise, without a face, they wouldn't be able to recognize it.
Jiang Yunxi nodded and walked outside. When they reached the large garden outside, they saw a group of people crying in the distance. They should be from the Yu family.
They walked over.
"Qingwan, my daughter, who is so heartless as to hurt you like this? My poor daughter..." Mrs. Yu cried bitterly while holding Yu Qingwan's body.
When she disappeared, she felt uneasy. She couldn't eat or sleep well in the past few days and her heart was always in her throat.
Unexpectedly, the next news was her death.
She was still so young and unmarried. Just a few days ago, he was hugging her and acting coquettishly, saying nice things to make her happy. I didn't expect that they would be separated forever in just a few days.
The other women nearby were crying in pain, some of them looked pale, probably because they were frightened by Yu Qingwan's death.
"When did Yu Qingwan disappear?" Jiang Yunxi asked.
"She suddenly disappeared after going out the afternoon before yesterday. Miss Jiang, can you help find the murderer who killed my daughter? As long as you find him, the Yu family will reward you handsomely." Yu Yong stood up and said.
He knew Jiang Yunxi.
Her return to the capital caused such a sensation that it was hard not to know about it.
"Uncle Yu, why did you ask her to investigate? Qingwan is gentle and never argues with others. Last time, she had an argument with Jiang Yunxi in the shop." Lin Weiwei walked over quickly.
When she saw Yu Qingwan's face, she was so frightened that her face turned pale. She subconsciously took several steps back, feeling indescribable fear in her heart.
When she learned of Yu Qingwan's death, she came over immediately.
Jiang Yunxi looked at her and asked, "How do you know we had a fight?"
"Qingwan and I are close friends, and she told me." Lin Weiwei said with a pale face, feeling scared and sad. She didn't expect that Yu Qingwan would be killed suddenly, and die so tragically.
"It seems that she caused trouble to me last time in order to stand up for you. Why, do you suspect that I killed her?" Jiang Yunxi smiled faintly.
Lin Weiwei naturally didn't dare to say that. "I only know that you had an argument. As for who killed Qingwan, I believe the Jingzhao Yinfu will find out and will definitely not let the murderer go."
Jiang Yunxi didn't bother to argue with her. She looked at Yu Yong and said, "There are more than a dozen female corpses inside. Prince Han and I will do our best to investigate. Was there anything unusual before Yu Qingwan disappeared?"
"It seems not. She usually stays at home and occasionally goes out to meet other noble ladies. The day before yesterday afternoon, she went out by herself without taking her maid, and she never came back." Yu Yong said with tears in his eyes.
"She wouldn't go out alone for no reason. Lord Qu, please ask Yu Qingwan's maid to see if she knows anything about it." Jiang Yunxi said to Qu Xinwen.
"Okay." Qu Xinwen responded.
Lin Weiwei's heart sank. Lord Qu from Jingzhao Yinfu actually listened to Jiang Yunxi so much.
Jiang Yunxi turned and left.
Zhan Beiyuan followed.
"Miss Jiang, when can those corpses be moved?" Zhan Luochen asked as he caught up.
"Wait until we get some clues."
"When?"
"have no idea."
Zhan Luochen: "..."
Out of the yard.
Jiang Yunxi turned around and looked at the deserted mansion. She did not sense any evil aura inside, nor did she find Yu Qingwan's soul, but she still could not understand why the murderer took the faces of so many young women.
"Uncle, do you think the murderer is a pervert who specializes in taking people's faces?" Zhan Luochen shuddered when he said this.
"Let's go?" Zhan Beiyuan looked at Jiang Yunxi.
"Okay." Jiang Yunxi said and left.
Zhan Luochen: "..."
After walking for a while, Zhan Beiyuan said, "They all have the appearance of young women. You said that Concubine Li looks young, isn't it..."
