The mind-reading coroner drove the court crazy

Chapter 12 Do you also quarrel with the dead?

Qin Miaoxi's heart tightened, her eyes flickering slightly as she said in a deep voice, "That's not important. The key is how a body that was buried just yesterday ended up in the cave, and why did it rot so quickly? The master said he died of illness, so why did it become strangled?"

At this moment, the questions in her mind seemed like a tangled mess, and she couldn't find a clue.

"That family obviously lied to you! Was he buried like this?"

This sentence made Qin Miaoxi silent, because she didn't see the specific appearance of the corpse.

When she was buried that day, the exposed skin of the body was covered with thick powder, and the coffin was closed after she recited the mantra for rebirth.

"Yesterday again?"

Lu Qingchen muttered to himself, "The three members of the Qian family died yesterday, and this decayed corpse was also buried yesterday. There shouldn't be any connection, right?"

He paused and continued, "By the way, you haven't told me who this body is?"

Qin Miaoxi was silent for a moment, "He is the son of Li Dazhuang from Su Village."

"We'll know if we just ask."

Lu Qingchen became inexplicably excited. It was his first time to participate in a case investigation. The feeling was very subtle and made him unable to stop.

Qin Miaoxi glanced at the sky. Night had already fallen. The deep night was as dark as ink. A bright moon hung high in the sky, and its cold light illuminated the road ahead.

"No, let's go back to the city first and go to the government office tomorrow."

She gave the captain a few instructions and walked straight out of the cave with Lu Qingchen.

However, after walking for a while, Lu Qingchen's legs and feet began to ache. He hurriedly called out to the woman in front of him, "Hey! You're not going back, are you?"

Lu Qingchen rubbed his trembling legs, his brows furrowed so tightly that they could pinch a fly to death.

Qin Miaoxi looked at the clearly visible cave entrance, and the corners of her mouth twitched uncontrollably twice, once again confirming that this spoiled young marquis was a weakling.

"Anyway, I'm not leaving."

After saying that, he pulled out a horse from somewhere, pressed his hand lightly on the horse's back, and his body instantly flew into the air, his clothes fluttering, and then he sat down on the saddle.

He stretched out his hand towards Qin Miaoxi and said, "Woman, come up."

Qin Miaoxi looked up at the sky speechlessly, then raised her hand and snapped her fingers.

Suddenly, a "da da da" sound came from the distant woods, and soon a white horse came to Qin Miaoxi.

She jumped onto the horse, her movements flowing smoothly and her posture graceful and elegant.

"Young Marquis, let's go!"

Qin Miaoxi cast a provocative look at him, but unexpectedly received an approving smile from Lu Qingchen.

She shouted in her heart: Tongzi, dig out his eyes for me.

Can't do it.

Then you turn off the mind reading function.

Can't do it.

Aren’t you a divine artifact from heaven? What can you do?

Sorry, I'm just a merit counter. If you can successfully solve the case this time, you can increase your life by thirty days.

Qin Miaoxi angrily complained in her heart: Don't force me, I am just a ruthless tool for solving cases.

The next day, Lu Qingchen arrived at the yamen early, but did not see the hypocritical woman.

"Where is Qin the coroner?"

The yamen runner glanced at the sun outside the door and said, "At this time, Qin the Coroner should be at the paper-making shop."

"How could she not come? She is dereliction of duty." Lu Qingchen complained dissatisfiedly.

The yamen runner gave him a strange look and said, "Coroner Qin isn't permanently stationed at the yamen. She collects the money by the hour."

Thinking of Qin Miaoxi's fawning look when she saw the silver, he asked in confusion: "Is that woman really short of silver?"

"Young Marquis, you don't know that Qin the Coroner is the famous Qin the Great Benefactor in Jingzhao."

Lu Qingchen was stunned, a look of absurd astonishment appeared on his face. "She opened a paper-making shop and worked as a coroner, just to make money for charity!?"

It is said that Mr. Qin donates a lot of money every year, and no matter how much money Qin Miaoxi has, it is not enough to donate!

The bailiff nodded in admiration, "Commander Qin is kind-hearted and cannot bear to see the poor suffer."

At this time, Liang Hongkai walked out from the inner hall. He yawned and looked up to meet Lu Qingchen's resentful gaze, which made his hair stand on end. What kind of tricks was this ancestor going to do?

"Master Liang, you should increase the money you give to everyone."

?

Liang Hongkai was confused as to why he had to face this inexplicable young marquis just after waking up.

He looked up and saw Qin Miaoxi walking slowly towards the door. He suddenly had a bad feeling and asked cautiously, "Why are you here so early?"

As the saying goes, one doesn't visit without a reason. After working together for so long, he still knows Qin Miaoxi's character very well.

Qin Miaoxi's eyes fell on the yamen runner, "I heard that you found new clues, so I came here to explain."

?

I can understand each sentence individually, but why don’t I understand what they mean when they are put together?

Qin Miaoxi turned to the yamen runner and smiled sincerely, "Brother Cha, it's your turn!"

"Before Miss Qian died..." The bailiff looked at her with admiration, but became hesitant when speaking, "she had an argument with Qin the coroner."

In an instant, the suspicion of murder shifted to Qin Miaoxi.

Lu Qingchen narrowed his eyes, "You have seen the deceased, why do you want to hide this?"
