After she became a county magistrate, she took the ghost to investigate the case

After hearing this, Li Siqi immediately looked enlightened. No wonder he always felt some of Xu Yingying's behaviors were a little strange.

Like a...sissy?

Seeing that Li Siqi did not ask any more questions, Xu Yingying thought she had successfully fooled him and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

The two were walking in the yard, but after only a few steps, Xu Yingying saw a group of female ghosts running towards her.

As soon as they came over, they kept surrounding Xu Yingying and Li Siqi and crying.

"Oh my god, my Lord, she died such a tragic death! I was six months pregnant, and yet there were two victims! They also threw my body into the lotus pond! My body is still warm to this day!"

"Sir, I have parents and children to take care of, and I'm already married to someone else. I didn't expect that bastard Shen Baiting would still jerk me off and defile me."

"Sir, you have to help me! Not only was I brutally murdered by Shen Baiting, he also hid my body in the wall of his house."

……

When Xu Yingying heard this, her face suddenly changed.

Hiding a body in the walls of your own room?

Damn, isn't this a blatant perversion?

It would not do to let Shen Baiting indulge himself like this, so she quickly said to Li Siqi beside her: "Go and call Wu Da over to me."

Li Siqi was a little overwhelmed by Xu Yingying's sudden words, but he still nodded and agreed: "Okay."

After a while, Wu Da appeared in front of Xu Yingying.

"Sir, what important matter do you want to tell me?" Wu Da asked Li Siqi respectfully.

Xu Yingying said to Wu Da very seriously: "Think of a way to see if you can send someone to approach the Shen family. If there is a chance, go and investigate if there is anything strange in Shen Baiting's room."

"Yes, sir." Wu Da said and then stepped back.

Li Siqi was a little confused by Xu Yingying's behavior. He asked curiously, "What's wrong? Why did you suddenly go to investigate Shen Baiting's house? Is there anything strange?"

Hearing this, Xu Yingying said vaguely: "Nothing, I just think that with Shen Baiting's personality, there must be a lot of girls hiding in the house. I'll ask someone to see if I can find out."

She couldn't possibly tell Li Siqi that these female ghosts told her that Shen Baiting hid the bodies of those women in the walls of his room!

That would definitely make you look like a lunatic.

Thinking of this, Xu Yingying showed a helpless expression. Only she could see these female ghosts. Even if she told others about it, most likely no one would believe it.

Li Siqi nodded thoughtfully and said, "Oh, so that's how it is!"

Afternoon, in the study.

Xu Yingying was looking at the book in her hand intently.

"Knock, knock, knock--" Suddenly a knock on the door interrupted her.

"Who!"

Wu Da's voice came from outside the room: "Sir, it's me."

"come in!"

Hearing this, Xu Yingying put down the book and looked at Wu Dadao anxiously: "Have you found out what I asked you to investigate?"

Wu Da was embarrassed when he heard this, and said helplessly: "Sir, I came here to report this matter. The people we sent to inquire about the news were driven out by the servants of the Shen family."

"The Shen family seemed to have figured out that they were from our county government. Not only did they not give us face, they also mocked our men in a sarcastic way."

After Wu Da finished speaking, he glanced at Xu Yingying cautiously.

Xu Yingying didn't feel much after hearing this. After all, in her opinion, the people in the Shen family were not fools, and the problem would definitely not be solved so easily. She still had to find another opportunity to investigate.

"Okay, you go down first! I will find another way to deal with this matter later." Xu Yingying held her forehead and waved to Wu Da.

night.

As soon as Xu Yingying lay down on the bed and closed her eyes, she felt an itchy sensation on her face.

She looked up and her heartbeat suddenly slowed down.

Good fellow! A female ghost in green clothes was hanging upside down on the beam at some point, and this female ghost was Taohua.

As for the itchiness that Xu Yingying felt on her head, it was the feeling of the female ghost's hair brushing across her face.

"what--"

In an instant, Xu Yingying's screams like a pig being slaughtered were heard in the room.

At the same time, the door of Xu Yingying's room was quickly pushed open. Wu Da took out his sword and looked around hurriedly, "Sir, what happened?"

Wu Da's voice brought Xu Yingying back to her senses.

"It's okay. I just had a nightmare." Xu Yingying waved her hand.

"That's good. I'll take my leave now." Wu Da bowed to Xu Yingying.

Having said that, he walked out.

After seeing the door slam shut with a creak, Xu Yingying's face suddenly became long, and she looked at the peach blossom hanging upside down on the beam with great displeasure and said coldly, "Aren't you coming down yet?"

"Don't you know that scaring people can kill them, and ghosts can kill them even more? I have no desire or hatred towards you, so why do you treat me like this?"

Taohua saw that Xu Yingying was angry and knew that she had done something wrong. She immediately floated down from the beam, stood beside Xu Yingying and whispered, "I'm sorry."

Xu Yingying's anger immediately subsided when she saw her like this, so she got straight to the point and asked, "Do you have something to talk to me about?"

Taohua's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she nodded quickly and said, "Yes."

"The murderer who killed you has been brought to justice. I wonder if there is anything else you want my help with?" Xu Yingying said puzzledly.

Taohua sighed helplessly when she heard this, "That's true, but I want to go home to see my mother. I lost my parents when I was young and she raised me up alone, and now this has happened to me."

"She is old, and I'm afraid her body won't be able to take it!" Taohua said to Xu Yingying earnestly.

Xu Yingying felt the same way after hearing this, so she suddenly had an idea and said, "How about this! I'll go to your house tomorrow to check on your mother and comfort her, and you can hang on to my umbrella and go with me to your house. Do you think this is feasible?"

After hearing this, Taohua looked at Xu Yingying with shining eyes. Her originally white eyes actually had a few drops of liquid in them. "Sir, thank you. You treat me like this. I don't know how to repay you."

Little did she know that Taohua's current appearance made her look even more eerie and weird in Xu Yingying's eyes.

Xu Yingying smiled reluctantly, "It's okay. This is what I should do. If you really appreciate me, don't show up without saying a word and scare me next time."

"Hehehe, okay, I'll remember this and will never do such a thing again next time." Taohua stretched out her hand and swore to the sky.

"Okay, okay, ancestor, can I go to your house early tomorrow morning? It's very late now, can you let me have a good sleep?" Xu Yingying said to Taohua with sleepy eyes.

"My lord, please go to sleep! I will take my leave now."

After Xu Yingying said goodbye to Taohua, she fell on the bed and fell asleep.

Early the next morning, Xu Yingying was awakened by Taohua.

"Sir~"

"grown ups?"

"Sir! It's already morning, when are you coming to my house~"
