"These earrings belong to Pei Yaolin, right?" Qiao Ruoxi asked.
Xu Xiangu was visibly stunned and turned away: "What makes you say that these earrings belong to Pei Yaolin? These earrings were left to me by my mother, give them back to me!"
"I can testify that these earrings belong to Yaolin, and my mother has a pair of identical earrings."
A deep voice, accompanied by a powerful aura, came from behind the crowd.
Everyone turned around to look.
Although the visitor was in a wheelchair, his appearance and aura were very eye-catching. His innate kingly temperament made people feel fear at first sight.
There was a young girl following him, and many people recognized her.
"Isn't this Ah Sheng's daughter, Big Girl?"
Ning Yimeng saw Xu Xiangu being pinned to the ground by the police and immediately rushed over: "Aunt Xu, what's wrong with you? Why are they arresting you?"
Xu Xiangu looked at Ning Yimeng and gritted her teeth, "Didn't I tell you to leave? The farther the better. Why did you come back? Have you forgotten what your mother told you? This is not the place for you!"
Ning Yimeng's eyes were red: "Aunt Xu, I came back with my uncle. With my uncle protecting me, no one can hurt me, don't worry."
Xu Xiangu was half-believing and half-doubting, and looked at Pei Yaozhou: "He is your mother's brother?"
Ning Yimeng nodded and looked at Qiao Ruoxi: "This is my aunt, they...they are all very nice to me."
At the end of her words, Ning Yimeng lowered her head.
Xu Xiangu looked at Qiao Ruoxi with complicated eyes. After a long moment, she seemed relieved and said, "Good, you finally found a family that truly treats you well. Now I can rest assured."
"Brother Zhuo, the fingerprints on Ning Xiaohu's necklace have been verified. We also found a toxic substance containing potassium cyanide at Ms. Xu's residence. We have taken it for testing, and we will soon be able to confirm whether it is the drug that killed the Ning family mother-in-law and daughter-in-law."
A policeman hurried over to report.
Zhuo Yanting was secretly surprised. He didn't expect that Qiao Ruoxi was right about everything he said.
A young girl who hasn't even graduated from college yet has better insight than a policeman like him. How amazing!
Everyone in Ningyuan Town looked at each other in bewilderment, but most people still refused to believe that Xu Xiangu, whom they had always revered as a demigod, would actually commit murder.
"No need for tests. I was the one who poisoned him and I was the one who killed him."
As soon as Xu Xiangu said this, the air seemed to freeze.
Everyone in Ningyuan Town widened their eyes.
Xu Xiangu burst into laughter. "Ningsheng's family has committed countless evil deeds. Not only did they kill Yaolin, they almost ruined Mengmeng's life. They deserved death. It's a pity that I couldn't kill Ningsheng as well!"
"It turns out that this was not the work of a ghost at all, it was murder!" someone in the crowd exclaimed.
Xu Xiangu's eyes flashed with cruelty, but she still smiled: "There is no such thing as a ghost. It's just the retribution for the sins I have committed."
Then, she pointed at the people in Ningyuan Town and said, "God is watching all the bad things you do. Just wait, you will all be punished!"
Xu Xiangu's words completely exposed the veil of Ningyuan Town.
Many people were so angry that they picked up whatever they had and threw it at Xu Xiangu.
Xu Xiangu, however, was not afraid at all, as if what was thrown at her was not rotten vegetable leaves and rotten eggs, but a baptism from heaven.
"Officer Zhuo." Qiao Ruoxi frowned and called out.
Zhuo Yanting was also stunned by the scene before him. It was not until he heard Qiao Ruoxi's words that he reacted. After a lot of hard work, he finally restored order and evacuated everyone in Ningyuan Town.
He wiped the sweat from his forehead and was just about to breathe a sigh of relief when he heard Xu Xiangu ask him.
"Officer Zhuo, I killed three people. Will the court sentence me to death?"
Zhuo Yanting heard about the evil deeds of Ning Sheng's family from Qiao Ruoxi, and learned of Xu Xiangu's original intention, and he felt a little soft-hearted.
So he said something to comfort her: "If you confess your crime and explain the circumstances, the judge may give you a life sentence at his discretion."
Xu Xiangu shook her head, her eyes far away: "Officer Zhuo, can you please help me speak up and ask the judge to sentence me to death?"
Zhuo Yanting was stunned. In his career as a policeman, he had only seen people trying to survive. This was the first time he saw a criminal who was determined to die.
"The conditions for becoming a ghost are very harsh. Do you think that if you die, you can become a ghost and continue to help Pei Yaolin avenge her, so that she will give up the idea of killing and avoid the punishment of being reduced to ashes?"
Hearing this, Xu Xiangu's body stiffened and she looked up at Qiao Ruoxi: "Why can't I become a fierce ghost? Tell me, how can I become a fierce ghost so that I can take Ning Sheng's life!"
Qiao Ruoxi didn't say anything, just looked at Xu Xiangu quietly.
Xu Xiangu suddenly took out a glass bottle covered with yellow paper from her waist and handed it to Qiao Ruoxi.
"There's something you want in here. If you're willing to tell me how to become a ghost, I'll give it to you!"
Qiao Ruoxi frowned: "You know what I'm looking for? Did Pei Yaolin tell you?"
Xu Xiangu didn't respond: "Don't worry about it, just tell me whether you want it or not."
"Where is Pei Yaolin? Is she the one who has been following me?" Qiao Ruoxi continued to ask.
Xu Xiangu held up the glass bottle high and said, "Once this glass bottle is smashed, the souls of everyone inside will be reduced to ashes. I only give you three seconds, 3..."
Qiao Ruoxi narrowed her eyes and said, "Give me the bottle, and I can assure you that Ning Yimeng will have no worries for the rest of her life."
Xu Xiangu stopped the countdown and after a while, she suddenly laughed: "Mrs. Pei is really a formidable businessman. She knows how to control a person."
"Mrs. Pei, please remember what you said."
Having said that, Xu Xiangu handed the glass bottle to Qiao Ruoxi and never said another word from then on.
…
The case was solved and everyone in Ningyuan Town breathed a sigh of relief.
However, the haze hanging over Ningyuan Town never dissipated.
The mayor was calculating the expenses of the past few days with a worried look on his face when he heard Ning Yaozu's voice coming from the yard.
"Mayor, are you home? I have something urgent to talk to you about!"
The mayor's eyes suddenly flashed. He was worried about money, and now the God of Wealth has come to his door. He hurried out to welcome Ning Yaozu in.
"Yaozu, I haven't seen you these past few days. Where have you been? How's your dad doing lately? The autumn harvest season is almost here. Has your dad followed up on that livestream sales pitch he mentioned last time?"
Ning Yaozu anxiously interrupted the mayor, "Mayor, I came to see you today because of my father. He disappeared three days ago and hasn't been home since."
"I've looked everywhere, but I can't find any trace of him..."
