Black Fairy, the master is a female ghost

Chapter 302: Victim Miss Qin

After having dinner with Zhu Tianpeng, Lu Xunhuan took Qingxia back to Xialou, with Captain Ma and Pan Long following from a distance.

After returning, the four of them discussed the latest situation in the pavilion in the backyard as usual.

Captain Ma said, "According to Qingxia, those people on the Immortal Friends Association's roster have been ruled out. Supreme Jade, where are you going to start next?"

Lu Xun Huan asked, "Do you have an excuse to go to Baihemen?"

Captain Ma asked, "Why go to Baihemen? Could it be that the thief came from Baihemen?"

Lu Xunhuan nodded slightly. "Based on the fact that the victims were all tall, I've asked President Zhu about this."

"There is a woman in the White Crane Sect, now thirty-eight years old, surnamed Ye. Fourteen years ago, she came to Changzhou City to participate in the Immortal Martial Arts Competition."

Captain Ma said: "There may be more than one tall woman in the immortal sect. What if it's not her?"

He stroked his short beard and said, "Oh, if this gets wrong, it will be very embarrassing. I'm afraid that woman surnamed Ye from the White Crane Sect will kick you off the mountain."

Lu Xunhuan said, "We can only eliminate them one by one."

Captain Ma pondered for a moment and said, "You two should go visit other victims tomorrow and see if you can get more new clues."

Pan Long interrupted, "It would be nice if we could collect another two hundred taels of silver from each family, right, Captain?"

Captain Ma knocked him on the head and said, "You big-headed devil."

He said to Lu Xunhuan, "As for the woman surnamed Ye from Baihemen, it would be great if you could visit her, but you have to come up with the best excuse and reason."

"If you go there rashly, they'll turn you away. Before you come up with a solution, go visit other victims first."

Lu Xunhuan nodded: "Okay."

On the second day, Qingxia took Lu Xunhuan to a wealthy family in the city.

When the servant opened the door, he saw the two men's clothes and asked, "Are you here to investigate the thief's case?"

Lu Xun Huan nodded: "Yes, is your master here?"

The servant said, "The young lady has been sent back to her parents' home. The master and the young master don't want to talk about this matter anymore. You can leave now."

As he spoke, he was about to close the door.

Lu Xun Huan quickly held the door open: "Wait, do you know the address of the young lady's family?"

The servant nodded: "I know. It was a few of us who took her back. She is at the Qin family in a certain mansion on a certain street in South City."

Lu Xunhuan said "thank you" and then turned to Qingxia and said, "Let's go to South City."

The young lady's family is also a wealthy family in the city.

As the saying goes, a match made in heaven, a rich girl marrying a rich boy, was originally a good marriage.

However, because of this incident, her marriage broke down, she was divorced, and sent back to her parents' home.

The two of them rushed to the gate of the young lady's parents' home in the south of the city and knocked on the door.

A man in his forties opened the door, saw the clothes the two were wearing, and said, "What a coincidence! I was just about to come look for you."

Lu Xun Huan knew that this was probably the master of the Qin family. He bowed and said, "It's fate that we have met. Let's talk inside."

The man in his forties gestured, "Please."

In the living room, after the three of them sat down, a woman in her late forties hurried over.

She said to the two men, "Two heroes of Xialou, we cannot swallow this insult."

"So please, Xialou, please catch that thief at all costs. Money is not a problem. As long as you can get justice for my daughter, you can ask for any amount."

Lu Xun Huan said, "Master Qin, Madam Qin, we heard that Miss Qin was sent back to her parents' home. We are quite upset. She has done nothing wrong. She is also a victim."

Madam Qin nodded. "Yes, my daughter has done nothing wrong. They are so heartless and ruthless."

Lu Xun Huan said, "Madam, please don't get excited. We are just here to ask if you want us to help. If you want us to help, we will investigate the case. If you don't want us to help, we can't let ourselves get into trouble."

Madam Qin said hurriedly, "Yes, we must catch the thief and tear him into pieces. Only then will we be able to relieve the hatred in our hearts."

Lu Xun Huan touched his chin and said, "Well... can we talk about the price? If the price is right, we can start work immediately."

Master Qin asked, "Money is not a problem, but can you guarantee that you will catch the thief?"

Lu Xun Huan said, "The price is agreed. We'll do the work first and pay later. We won't charge a penny if we don't catch the thief."

Mrs. Qin nodded: "Okay, okay, this is fair, then..."

"By the way, may I know your names?"

Lu Xun Huan introduced Qing Xia to him: "This is Fairy Qing Xia, our Xia Lou's top-ranked crime solver. Although she doesn't like to talk, she can often make significant progress in the case based on unexpected details."

When Mrs. Qin looked at Qingxia, there was suddenly more trust in her eyes, as if Qingxia had become a little taller in her eyes.

Lu Xun Huan added, "I am Supreme Jade, from a great sect of immortals. I am very powerful. If I encounter a thief, he will never be able to escape."

Madam Qin looked at the sword in his hand and asked, "Could it be that you are holding a magical sword?"

Lu Xunhuan stood up, drew his sword, circulated his magical power, and lit it up.

The magic sword emits purple light, which looks very beautiful.

Madam Qin nodded: "He is indeed a master of the immortal family."

Lu Xun Huan sheathed his sword and sat down again. "Master Qin, Madam Qin, I'll give you one thousand taels of silver. I'll pay you once we catch the thief. How do you do that?"

Mrs. Qin said, "Okay, no problem. I can't let my good girl be so aggrieved. It's really infuriating."

Lu Xun Huan stood up again and said, "Now that the price is agreed, take us to see the young lady. We need to find the thief from the clues."

The lady then stood up and said to Mr. Qin, "Then I'll take them there, you can go and do your thing."

Master Qin also stood up and bowed, saying, "Thank you both for your help. I hope you can catch the thief as soon as possible."

Lu Xunhuan responded: "I will do my best."

Half a cup of tea later, the two men saw Miss Qin in her boudoir, looking lonely.

Madam Qin said, "Daughter, your parents have specially invited experts from the Xia Tower to find the thief. Tell them everything you know."

Miss Qin looked the two of them over and asked quietly, "Ask whatever you want to ask."

Lu Xunhuan said, "We need the time, place, people, and details of the incident."

Miss Qin looked up at Mrs. Qin, then lowered her head again.

"The time was a month and a half ago. The location was at my residence in the mansion over there, around midnight. The person was that thief..."

Madam Qin frowned and asked, "It's already ugly time, where is that stinky man?"

Lu Xun Huan said, "Madam, there are some things that the young lady may be embarrassed to say in front of her mother. In order to solve the case as quickly as possible and catch the thief, would you mind if you could step out for a while?"

Mrs. Qin nodded: "Okay."

After Madam Qin left, Lu Xun Huan asked, "Miss, where did the young master go at that time?"

Tears welled up in Miss Qin's eyes.

"We've been a little unhappy since we got married."

"There are some things I didn't tell my parents."

"He was secretly having an affair with several of the maids who served us. That night, we had a fight, and I guess he went to sleep in one of the maids' rooms."

Lu Xunhuan nodded: "And then?"

Miss Qin said: "I was angry and fell asleep alone. I was half asleep when someone took off my clothes and I woke up."

"I thought it was him, and thought, don't be angry anymore, just make peace and live a good life..."

"I……"

Lu Xunhuan said: "So, you thought that thief was your man..."

"So, when did you realize something was wrong?"

Miss Qin wiped her tears and said, "Suddenly someone pushed the door open and came in. The person suddenly stood up. In the darkness, I heard a noise and someone fell by the door."

"I was shocked and stood up quickly, then I heard my husband cursing at the door, 'Shameless whore, you're cheating on me, right?'"

"Then there was another muffled sound, and my husband stopped talking. Only then did I realize that the person before was not my husband..."

"I was so scared that my soul was about to be shattered. My legs were weak and I couldn't run at all. The thief turned around quickly and held me down again..."

Lu Xunhuan asked, "Did he curse anyone?"

Miss Qin nodded: "He spoke out, viciously, cursing at me and my senior sisters and brothers. I was so scared that I didn't dare to resist..."

Lu Xunhuan asked, "Are you injured?"

Miss Qin nodded: "Yes, the thief bit someone..."

Lu Xunhuan touched his chin.

"Besides that, are there any other details? For example, how old is the thief? Can you estimate it?"

Miss Qin said, "I can't see him in the dark, but judging by his voice, he should be in his thirties or forties. His hands are very rough, and he's not very tall, about the same height as my husband."

Qingxia asked from the side: "Didn't you feel his hands were rough at first?"

Miss Qin said: "I didn't think about it at first, so I didn't pay attention. Later, I was scared and woke up completely, then I felt it."

Qingxia asked again: "Are there any other details?"

Miss Qin thought for a moment and said, "His beard is very hard and prickly..."

Lu Xunhuan asked, "Do you feel that the man has a beard?"

Miss Qin nodded: "Yes."

Qingxia asked Lu Xunhuan, "Do you want to see the teeth marks?"

Miss Qin raised her eyes, obviously embarrassed: "No..."

Lu Xun Huan stood up and turned his back: "Look, you have to learn to judge the characteristics of the thief's teeth from the teeth marks."

Qingxia nodded: "Okay."

She said to Miss Qin, "He's turned his back. Let me see."

Miss Qin stood up and reached out to untie her belt.
