70: The Soldier King's Supernatural Wife, Three Babies in One Child

"See you!"

Lu Chaoyan smiled and nodded, then she and Zhou Sen carried seven cakes, paid the bill and left.

When getting in the car, she locked Zhou Sen out and said, "You go back by yourself."

"How can you be like this? You just throw it away after using it!"

Zhou Sen glared at Lu Chaoyan fiercely.

Lu Chaoyan smiled and started the car. "Because you are a daily disposable, study hard and strive to get the top score in the country in a month. Bye."

Looking at the luxury car driving away, Zhou Sen took out the three thousand foreign currencies given by Lu Chaoyan, ran to a dark alley, and exchanged them for national currency.

When Lu Chaoyan was leaving, she entered the space halfway, packed up all the clothes and shoes she bought, went to the post office, and sent them back to Sister Lu Eldest and Sister Lu Second.

When I got home again, it was already past two in the afternoon.

After distributing the cake to Xu Jing, Zuo Xianping, Hong Qingshan and seven others, Lu Chaoyan took the children to take a nap, but in fact she entered the space.

After carefully going through Zhou Zhongyun's investigation materials, he found that all the materials he had found before only had a beginning but no end.

It was as if there was someone beside him who saw everything and erased all the clues behind him.

The clues found this year were much more detailed, but they all pointed to Qi Shiyun in the end, except for one thing: Lin Fangrou was hit and killed by a large truck in the factory next to the hospital.

The driver confessed his crime without much resistance.

And then his family did not beg for mercy.

Not long after, his family moved away from the imperial capital and returned to their hometown in the countryside. They were bitten by mosquitoes and contracted dengue fever, and all died.

Zhou Zhongyun felt that it was unreasonable that out of so many people in the village, only their family got sick and died.

After a careful investigation, he found that the driver had gone to the hospital three times for medical treatment before the accident.

One of the times was when Pei Huaijin showed it to him, and the two of them stayed alone in the room for half an hour.

As a hospital director, even if he has to diagnose and treat patients, it is impossible for him to do it himself without even using a nurse.

This made him suspect that there was something wrong between Pei Huaijin and the driver.

Lu Chaoyan also felt that it was unreasonable. Everyone's physical fitness was different. Even if their whole family was infected with dengue fever, they would die at different time periods due to their body's disease resistance and latent period.

It is absolutely impossible for them to fall ill and die at the same time.

The only possible reason is that someone injected them with a strong dengue virus. Unfortunately, their bodies were burned and no one can find out what happened.

However, in either case, it was confirmed that the man in black who harmed Mu Bangning was a cruel and ruthless person.

Even if it wasn't for Mu Bangning, she would find him.

When I came out of the space, it was already dark. Jinianci didn't come over tonight, so the dinner was simple.

Mutton soup with hotpot buns and three vegetables.

After eating and drinking, I took the three babies into the space and slept until midnight, then came out again.

She was dressed in black and wearing a black hat and went to Pei Huaijin's house.

She released her special power, looked around, and seeing no one around, she put on medical leather gloves, found a foothold in the backyard, jumped lightly, and went in.

Then, use wire to hook open the door lock.

The layout of the first floor is very simple, with a living room, kitchen, study, large bedroom and a bathroom in the corner.

She first entered the large study, where the items were simple and elegant. The bookshelves were filled with medical books, medical records and notes, and there was also a small bed.

Lu Chaoyan took out a flashlight and shone it around. Finding no dust, she put on a new pair of gloves and searched for clues in the study.

Just as she expected, there were no clues.

She went to the bedroom on the first floor again. Wen Ai was sleeping on the bed. Her face was pale and the chloasma on both sides of her nose were particularly obvious because she had removed her makeup.

Lu Chaoyan took her into Bai Yuan's space and searched the drawers of the wardrobe. There were only some women's clothes, jewelry and banknotes, but no men's belongings.

Finding no evidence, she took out Wen Ai and went upstairs.

There were three rooms upstairs. She first went into the two unoccupied rooms, one of which was a small bedroom with nothing in it except a bed and a wardrobe.

The other room was very simple. It was where Pei Qinyao lived. There were few clothes and no valuable accessories in it, only piles of medical books.

After searching, Lu Chaoyan went to the room of Pei Qinyao's younger brother Pei Jun.

He is the same age as Lu Hanqing, seventeen years old this year.

Ji Nian Ci said he had severe urticaria, the kind that cannot be cured.

Because of this illness, he was almost unwilling to go out and stayed at home most of the time. Wen Ai also did not go anywhere and stayed at home with him all day.

There were only some comic books in his room to pass the time.

After searching around, Lu Chaoyan found a yellowed sketchbook in the small compartment under the bed.

The corners of the sketchbook were all torn.

Lu Chaoyan picked it up casually, flipped through it for a few seconds, and smiled in surprise.

"This little brat actually likes this kind of book."

The book tells the story of two scholars in ancient times who grew up together, went to school together, passed the imperial examinations together, and got married and had children together.

The two families lived next to each other, with a close relationship and no distinction between them.

When they died, the two asked their descendants to bury them together.

At the end of the story, their wives realized that they were actually in love.

Marrying them is just to cover up the eyes of the world and to proliferate the family.

The two wives finally understood that their husbands had not touched them since they became pregnant, not because they were indifferent, but because they often slept together and lived in their own world of two.

There are a lot of passages describing the love between two scholars, which is really satisfying from a reader's perspective.

Lu Chaoyan closed the book and put it back, unable to suppress the smile.

What expression would the serious Pei Qinyao have if she knew that her brother liked this tune?

Having gained nothing, Lu Chaoyan left the Pei family and looked towards Li Mingxiu's house next door.

He climbed over the wall again.

There was no one in the room, not even Uncle Yang. Lu Chaoyan searched upstairs and downstairs, but still found no clues.

After returning home, it was past three in the morning, when it was time for a good night's sleep, so Lu Chaoyan simply went to the Li family's old house.

It is also an ancient three-courtyard house, even more spacious and grander than the one where Lu Chaoyan lives.

In his early years, Li Boyang, the old man of the Li family, married Shu Youjun, who gave birth to Li Mingjue and Li Mingxiu. Not long after that, he took Qi Shiyun as his second wife, who gave birth to a daughter, Li Qing, and a son, Li Mingxuan.

Shu Youjun, who had received higher education, could not stand such a life and died of depression.

Therefore, her two sons did not have a good relationship with Li Boyang.

Li Mingjue and Li Mingxiu do not live in the old house and only come back during festivals.

However, Li Qingheng had to study medicine with his grandfather Li Boyang and lived in the old house all year round.

In the backyard of the third courtyard lived the family of six of Li Boyang's youngest son Li Mingxuan. The three main rooms in the middle courtyard were Li Boyang's bedroom, living room and study.

The east wing belongs to Li Mingjue, the west wing belongs to Li Mingxiu, and the front yard used to be the residence of Li family apprentices and servants.

Later, it was converted into a living room for receiving guests and the Li family clinic.

Because of the Li family's reputation as a miraculous doctor, the clinic's business is pretty good. Li Boyang is busy with four apprentices every day and is still too busy to handle it.

This time, Lu Chaoyan entered through the main gate and went to the Li family clinic first. There were two large pharmacies, one for seeing patients and dispensing medicine, and the other for boiling medicine and making pills. It looked quite large.

Lu Chaoyan searched around but didn't find any useful evidence. However, she found a bottle of fake medicine in the pharmacy with the same formula as her life-saving pills.

Could it be that Li Boyang changed the medicine? I wonder if it was a collaboration with Li Mingxiu or if it was done by him alone?

Lu Chaoyan did not take the medicine and went to the west wing of the central courtyard.

The north bedroom of the two bedrooms was empty and the furniture in the room was covered with dust.

In the south bedroom, Li Qingheng's clothes, books and other things were placed.

Lu Chaoyan searched through his things but found nothing, but did see a diary.

It wrote that he liked someone, but didn't mention the name and no one knew who it was.

Lu Chaoyan went to the east wing again, and saw that Li Mingjue's family's clothes, decorations and ornaments were still there.

There were no clues either, so Lu Chaoyan sneaked into the room of Mr. Li Boyang, the east bedroom in the main house.

What caught my eye was a three-story step-out bed with lifelike carvings on it.

In the square next to the bed, there was a person lying there to keep him company at night.

The large carved wardrobe against the wall, the treasure cabinet, the tables and chairs, each one is made of the finest rosewood, and is simply magnificent.

This should all be Shu Youjun’s dowry.

It is said that in ancient times, when a daughter got married, she would take everything she would need for the rest of her life with her so that she would not be wronged by her husband's family.

Lu Chaoyan felt that she didn’t know whether she would be wronged or not. Once she died, all the good things would be enjoyed by her husband’s family.

She put Li Boyang and the night attendant into the space and began to search the house, but there was no clue that Mu Bangning was murdered.

Instead, under the floor behind the bed, I found a box of ancient medical books hidden tightly together.

She glanced through it briefly and found that all it recorded were unorthodox methods of saving people.

Among them, there is a soothing needle. It is said in the book that using it occasionally can calm a crazy person. But if it is used too many times, the person will become like a person with amnesia and become stupid and dazed.

Especially after being injected for a month in a row, a healthy person will become a living dead. Even if his eyes are open, he will have no perception of the outside world.

This reminded Lu Chaoyan of Mr. Mu. Maybe he didn't have Alzheimer's disease, but someone gave him this soul-soothing injection after Mu Bangning passed away.

And Qi Shiyun, she must have been injected with a soul-soothing needle, which turned her into a living dead.

I think the person who gave them the injections was most likely the man in black.

She could start by checking the people the two had the most contact with.

Lu Chaoyan quickly filtered through her mind and realized that the people they had the most contact with were Li Mingxiu and Pei Huaijin.

But if Li Mingxiu wanted to harm Mr. Mu, why did he take care of him for more than ten years?

He had never given him a soothing injection before, but now that Mu Bangning was gone, he attacked Mu Lao again, which was very unreasonable.

Could it be that after Mu Bangning left, Mr. Mu discovered some secret?

Or did Li Mingxiu know that she was coming to the imperial capital and was afraid that she would learn something from Mr. Mu?

But, he is not afraid of Mu Bangning, so why should he be afraid of her?

It's really unreasonable.

Maybe it was Pei Huaijin who did it?

After all, he lived so close to Li Mingxiu, so it would be easy for him to take action against Mr. Mu.

It would be easy to attack Qi Shiyun in the hospital.
