The system jumped to me

"father!"

Not to jump off the stone bench, but to run incredibly fast.

Li Lianhua knelt down and opened her arms to catch Buwei.

"Did you protect your mother well?"

"Yes, I've been watching, and not a single hair of my mother's has fallen out."

Liu Ruiying's teasing gaze immediately fell upon her, but Hua Xiaozhou ignored the slight blush on her cheeks, raised her chin slightly, and looked indifferent.

"So, didn't I get you out of this predicament?" Fang Duobing turned to Hua Xiaozhou smugly, eager to claim credit.

"Does this count as repaying the favor from last night? It can only count as one, but your servant entered my room first, so that counts as one. I saved him the second time, and helped him relieve his pain the third time. You do the math yourself!"

"I...okay, it counts, it all counts." Fang Duobing was dejected for a moment, but quickly cheered up and asked Li Lianhua to help him investigate the case. After getting along with her before, he felt that Li Lianhua was quite capable, like a reclusive master. He was determined to seize the opportunity.

"Father, let's investigate too. I'm so curious and want to know the truth about the ghost killing people. Please!" Buwei hugged Li Lianhua's neck and shook her back and forth.

"Check, check, check, come down quickly, Dad's feeling a bit dizzy."

Not because they were on the ground, but because they were so happy they jumped up and down on the spot.

He's seven years old now, and he rarely asks his parents to hold him anymore. But he's encountered too many unusual things these past few days, so he needs a hug to give him courage. But the hug he just gave was just to coax his dad into giving him his permission.

He was extremely curious about such mysterious things. It would be fine if a person killed someone, but it was unacceptable if a ghost killed someone. He wanted to know how a ghost could kill someone.

He touched the small hidden dart in his sleeve. Just wait and see. Once he has learned all of his father's skills, he will go out and make his own way in the world. He will either make a name for himself through exams or through fighting. He, Li Buwei, will also become an extraordinary person!

No one present knew of this grand ambition.

Hua Xiaozhou actually agreed with Li Lianhua's investigation. She was also a bit curious, and since Yu Qiushuang might become one of her people in the future, helping Yu Qiushuang find out the truth could be considered a perk for her subordinate.

Liu Ruiying saved people and even risked her life to enter Yucheng. How could she not want to know the truth?

"That's great! Everyone agrees to join the investigation. Let's go, let's go perform an autopsy!"

Fang Duobing, like a leader of a picnic team, led his group to find the guards to see the corpse.

The guard led his men to the icehouse and then turned to leave.

"Wow, it's so fresh! It hasn't rotted at all. Can a ghost kill people with this kind of effect?"

Before Fang Duobing could get closer to check, Liu Ruiying, who was at the back, hurriedly stepped past the others and ran to the body.

The surrounding air was chilly, and the clothes on their bodies were icy cold.

"Mobilize internal energy to protect the body."

Instead of obeying orders, Li Lianhua checked the pulse to confirm that there was nothing wrong before she could focus her attention on examining the corpse.

Did you figure something out?

Fang Duobing followed behind Liu Ruiying and asked.

Liu Ruiying didn't speak, but turned to look at Hua Xiaozhou.

Can he be trusted?

"Who?" Fang Duobing felt that the question was nonsensical.

“Yes, the detectives at Baichuan Academy specialize in seeking justice,” Hua Xiaozhou replied.

"That's good, go ahead and do it!" Liu Ruiying took two steps back, making room for Hua Xiaozhou.

"What are you doing? What are you talking about?" Fang Duobing was completely puzzled. He couldn't understand a single word.

Li Lianhua and Buwei also looked puzzled, but they trusted Hua Xiaozhou and remained silent.

Hua Xiaozhou then took out the marrow incense from his purse, lit it, and held it under Yu Qiushuang's nose.

"What are you doing? Isn't this just for pain relief? She's dead!"
