A female coroner arrived at the Jingzhao Prefecture.

Chapter 88: Having evil intentions
"Alright, that saves Liu a lot of trouble, no need to look for anyone." Jiang Zhan breathed a sigh of relief, finally solving a mystery.

Mu Qingcheng was not at ease. She continued, "Where was the place you and Li Yunyao originally planned to dispose of the body? How did you dispose of it? Did you dispose of the body alone, or did you have someone else help you?"

“Our original plan was to dispose of the body at the northwest temple gate. I just carried her there and placed her on the steps in front of the temple gate. I could do this by myself without any help.”

Liu Xiao's expression turned cold, and he subconsciously clenched his fists. "The real culprit who disposed of the body not only knew where I was going to dump it, but also upgraded his methods!"

"Clearly, the real culprit thinks your body disposal plan is too conservative." A guess flashed through Mu Qingcheng's mind. "Substituting one thing for another can not only help you expand the case's influence infinitely, but also take the blame for abandoning a corpse for you, Liu Xiao. Tell me, who exactly is so concerned about you?"

Liu Xiao's expression hardened. "Could it be Yi Yi?" After saying that, he shook his head again, his eyes full of disbelief. "Impossible. Yi Yi is just a delicate woman. How could she have the strength to do these things?"

Mu Qingcheng paused, then offered a meaningful reminder: "Not necessarily. Huang Yiyi may not be without strength, and she may not be someone else."

Liu Xiao's eyes widened. "What does this mean?"

While adjusting his sleeves, Song Shuyu said, "Young Master Liu, no wonder you need to ask for outside help. Your brain really isn't up to par."

Mu Qingcheng almost burst out laughing. She thought the man was a kind and gentle person who wouldn't speak harshly to others, but she didn't expect him to be so shrewish and merciless.

Liu Xiao was embarrassed, but since he needed their help, he had no choice but to back down. So he bowed and said, "Lord Song, I'm often blinded by my own involvement. Sometimes I can't see things clearly, and sometimes I don't want to believe it. But right now, I just want the truth. Otherwise, I won't be able to sleep peacefully for even a day. Compared to the great talents of Lord Song and Counselor Mu, I am indeed foolish. Apart from knowing some unorthodox skills like disguise and mechanical manipulation, I haven't read many books. I'm sorry to have made a fool of myself in front of you all!"

Upon hearing this, Mu Qingcheng's heart stirred. "Liu Xiao, who taught you your disguise and mechanical skills?"

Liu Xiao replied, "It was passed down from my father."

"And martial arts?" "Yes."

Mu Qingcheng seemed to be deep in thought.

“Young Master Liu does have some intelligence, but not much,” Song Shuyu gave a fair assessment, then changed the subject, “No matter what your reasons were for kidnapping Granny Yang and setting up traps to coerce Counselor Mu, you cannot escape this crime. Jiang Zhan, take him back and we will hold a trial at a later date.”

"Yes!"

Jiang Zhan tied Liu Xiao and Granny Yang to the same rope and escorted them outside.

Just as they were about to leave the hospital, Mu Qingcheng suddenly called out in a certain direction, "Liu Pei!"

Grandma Yang, who was walking at the back, suddenly turned around, and the panic that flashed in her eyes for a moment did not escape Mu Qingcheng's eyes!
Liu Xiao looked around, completely bewildered. "Big brother? Where's my big brother?"

"My lord, do you remember when the eldest son, Liu Pei, appeared in the dreams of Sanhu and the short, fat man? Could it be that the reason there was no body in the coffin is because the corpse ran back to the Liu family in the middle of the night to appear in their dreams?"

As Mu Qingcheng spoke with Song Shuyu, her eyes were fixed on Granny Yang like sharp blades, taking in every subtle reaction from her.

Nervousness, guilt, and confusion all revealed ulterior motives.
