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

Xu Yingying was amused by Li Siqi's words.

Li Siqi felt relieved when he saw Xu Yingying calm down.

In fact, after the incident where he couldn't leave the county town, Li Siqi developed a strong curiosity about Xu Yingying.

Although he still refused to admit that there were ghosts in this world, he had a vague feeling in his heart that Xu Yingying might really be able to see ghosts, so he wanted to stay with Xu Yingying to see if she really had this ability.

Xu Yingying actually also developed a strong curiosity about Li Siqi.

The reason why she tried her best to let Li Siqi stay was firstly because she wanted to personally cure the cold poison in Li Siqi's body. Secondly, after spending these days together, Xu Yingying felt that Li Siqi also had a secret that he could not tell anyone, but he just didn't tell her.

"How about this! I'll come and give you another acupuncture tomorrow morning to remove the cold poison!" Xu Yingying said to Li Siqi as if she had thought of something.

"Okay." Li Siqi nodded.

Early the next morning.

Xu Yingying brought her tools to Li Siqi's room.

Li Yiping also came. While observing Li Siqi's various reactions, he directed Xu Yingying to give Li Siqi acupuncture.

"Take the thinnest needle and prick him there." Li Yiping commanded.

Seeing that Xu Yingying had inserted the needle accurately, Li Yiping nodded with satisfaction and said, "Okay, take another thicker needle and insert it into his neck."

"Is it here?" Xu Yingying asked in a low voice, pointing to a certain spot on Li Siqi's back.

"A little further down."

"Yes! It's here!" Li Yiping said.

Xu Yingying performed very well this time. Although she was still not that skilled in acupuncture, Li Siqi cooperated with her very well and did not resist or move around. After a while, Xu Yingying finished the acupuncture.

"Okay." Xu Yingying took a deep breath and wiped the sweat from her forehead with her sleeve, feeling relieved.

Hearing the sound, Li Siqi climbed up from the bed and put on his clothes. This time the acupuncture was different from the last time. After the acupuncture, Li Siqi felt a sense of relaxation all over his body and felt extremely comfortable.

It seems that the acupuncture was effective this time.

Li Siqi couldn't help but thank Xu Yingying sincerely: "Thank you."

When Xu Yingying heard this, she waved her hand and said nonchalantly, "It's just a small matter, not worth mentioning."

At that moment, the gentle sunlight outside the window shone on Xu Yingying's face, and Xu Yingying's whole body radiated a faint golden light, like a fairy descending from heaven.

Li Siqi's breathing slowed down.

"I still have things to deal with, so I'll leave first." Without waiting for Li Siqi to reply, Xu Yingying left Li Siqi's room carrying the medicine box on her back.

Only Li Siqi could not calm down for a long time as he watched Xu Yingying leave.

He is such a good man! But... he is a boy. Or a girl...

A look of regret flashed across Li Siqi's face.

Forget it.

What am I thinking?

When Li Siqi realized how ridiculous his thoughts were, he quickly shook his head to clear these messy thoughts from his mind.

At the same time, Li Siqi felt extremely ashamed of his previous behavior of doubting Xu Yingying.

In this way, Li Siqi lived in the Li Mansion again.

Good things come in pairs. There has been new progress in the Camellia Institute's investigation into the ill-fated mandarin ducks.

In the study, Camellia brought a female ghost that Xu Yingying had seen to Xu Yingying.

"Go ahead! Report your identity and what you know about the case to the adults." Camellia said lightly.

The female ghost began to tell Xu Yingying her life story in tears.

"Hello, sir. My name is Zhang Xiaomei, and I am Zhang Xiaohui's elder sister."

Xu Yingying's eyes flashed with surprise when she heard this. "Didn't Zhang Xiaohui say that she was an only child?"

Camellia immediately explained: "After a person turns into a ghost, some ghosts will have some deviations in their memory, some ghosts will not remember anything at all, and some ghosts will lose their sanity due to their own evil spirits, resulting in some disordered memories."

Xu Yingying nodded and said, "So that's how it is."

Xu Yingying turned to Zhang Xiaomei and said, "Go on."

Zhang Xiaomei continued, "Originally, Fang Dongyuan and I were the first to know each other and we were in love, but Fang Dongyuan is a scumbag who doesn't keep his word and loves to deceive girls."

"When he and I ran out to meet secretly, he accidentally ran into my sister, and then asked his family to ask for my sister's hand in marriage. I was unwilling to accept this, so I killed my sister when she wasn't paying attention and then dumped her body in the well."

Xu Yingying frowned slightly when she heard this, "Did you kill Fang Dongyuan too?"

Zhang Xiaomei nodded and said, "Yes, how could I watch a scumbag who had let me down marry my own sister happily? So I tricked him into coming out. At first he was reluctant to come out with me, but later I told him that this was the last time we would meet in private, and Fang Dongyuan came out reluctantly."

"What about you? How did you die?" Xu Yingying asked.

"I felt that I had killed two people, and many people in the community had seen me and Fang Dongyuan meeting in a teahouse. So I knew I could not escape the punishment of the law, so I jumped into the well and committed suicide." Zhang Xiaomei said helplessly.

"You also jumped into the well? Then why didn't I hear that your body was found or salvaged today?" A hint of surprise flashed in Xu Yingying's eyes.

"The woman's body is in my Zhang family's own pond." Zhang Xiaomei said frankly.

"Okay, I understand." Xu Yingying nodded.

After that, she waved her hand and called Wu Da over, and instructed him: "Go to Zhang's house and inform Zhang Xiaohui's father to salvage the pond in the mansion. His eldest daughter's body should be in his own pond."

Wu Da couldn't help but open his mouth wide when he heard the voice, and was very surprised, "How did you know that the body of Zhang's eldest daughter was in their pool?"

Seeing this, Xu Yingying had no choice but to bite the bullet and said, "I know a little bit about divination. I just divined it myself, and then I wanted to try it out to see if it's true."

"Oh, so that's how it is. Your Excellency is really awesome." Upon hearing the voice, Wu Da looked at Xu Yingying with shining eyes, his eyes full of admiration.

"Okay, okay, go quickly! We can discuss these trivial things after the case is closed and we have time." Xu Yingying urged.

"Yes, my lord."

A quarter of an hour later.

Wu Da rushed in from outside in a hurry, "Sir, we really, really found the body of Zhang Xiaohui's sister."

At the same time, Zhang's father, who had lost two daughters in a row and was extremely haggard, also came to the yamen.

"Sir, please tell me what's going on!" Zhang's father said with a broken heart. At the same time, he seemed to have aged by ten years overnight.

Seeing this, Xu Yingying sighed helplessly and told Zhang's father the whole story.

"Fang Dongyuan actually hooked up with your eldest daughter at the beginning. The two of them often met in teahouses. Fang Dongyuan also promised that he would marry your eldest daughter. After a while, the two of them had a relationship."

"But Fang Dongyuan accidentally discovered the more beautiful second daughter, and then he broke the contract and betrothed the second daughter to your family. This behavior undoubtedly angered your eldest daughter, and Zhang Xiaomei killed both Fang Dongyuan and Zhang Xiaohui. Then, knowing that she could not escape the disaster, she also jumped into the lake and committed suicide."
