The mind-reading coroner drove the court crazy

Qin Miaoxi frowned and was about to step forward when she suddenly heard Lu Laosan's hoarse and loud scream from inside the house.

Immediately afterwards, Lu Laosan was seen staggering and crawling out of the house. His face was as pale as paper and he was extremely terrified. His fingers trembled as he pointed towards the bedroom. His throat seemed to be blocked, and only a "gurgling" sound was left. He couldn't utter a complete word.

Qin Miaoxi just glanced at him lightly and walked straight into the house without hesitation.

At this moment, Liang Hongkai heard the noise and hurried over. Seeing Lu Laosan's appearance, he stepped forward, grabbed him by the collar, and asked in a stern voice, "What on earth happened in the room?"

Lu Laosan gasped for breath and took two deep breaths before finally recovering some strength. He shouted at the top of his voice, "Dead...dead, Li is really dead!"

Liang Hongkai frowned and looked at the yamen runners behind him with confusion.

Seeing this, the yamen runners hurriedly explained the ambiguous words that Lu Laoer had just said.

Upon hearing that Lu Lao Er knew about the death but kept it a secret, Liang Hongkai's eyes instantly turned cold, a gleam of cold light flashing. He immediately said in a deep voice, "Secure Lu Lao Er. I will personally interrogate him later."

After saying that, he shook off Lu Lao San and strode into the house.

In the quiet room, Qin Miaoxi stood gracefully in front of the bed, her eyes fixed on Li's corpse in front of her.

Li's body slumped in a twisted position beside the bed, her head drooping limply. Her face seemed coated in a pale, frosted layer, devoid of any color. Her limbs were stretched out wildly, her clothes tattered and torn, as if she had endured a ferocious struggle. Even more terrifying was her wide-open eyes, as big as copper bells, their terror and resentment threatening to burst forth as she stared into the void, her eyes open in death.

Liang Hongkai stood tall beside Qin Miaoxi, his brows furrowed as his gaze darted back and forth over Li's corpse, muttering, "Suicide? Or homicide?"

The voice was low and echoed in the eerily quiet house, like muffled thunder.

Qin Miaoxi seemed not to hear. She took light steps and slowly approached the corpse, each step seeming to be filled with heavy thoughts.

She knelt down and gently placed her bare hand on Li's cold wrist. After a moment, she carefully examined her face and pupils, and said, "The body is stiff, the face is as pale as paper, and the pupils are completely dilated. Based on this, it can be inferred that the deceased has been dead for six hours."

She parted her red lips slightly, her tone was cold, like the frosty wind on a cold night, and every word she spoke was like ice beads falling to the ground, with great certainty.

"Then what was the cause of death?"

Liang Hongkai followed up with a question, his eyes sharp as he stared at the corpse.

Qin Miaoxi was about to reach for Li's clothes to check for any other injuries when she suddenly stopped. Her fingers trembled slightly as she gently brushed aside Li's messy hair and slowly moved her hand to her neck.

On the white but lifeless neck, there were two shocking tooth marks, which looked particularly eerie in the dim light.

Seeing this scene, Liang Hongkai couldn't help but gasp. His brows twisted into the shape of a "川" character, his eyes filled with shock and realization. He then muttered to himself, "As expected, she was also tragically sucked to death here."

For a moment, the air in the room seemed to be frozen by this heavy truth.

The image of Lu Lao Er outside the door suddenly flashed through his mind, and anger suddenly rose to his throat. Without saying a word, he rushed out with big strides.

In the blink of an eye, he came to Lu Lao Er, his eyes wide open and he asked in a stern voice, "Li is dead, why are you trying to hide it?"

A trace of panic flashed across Lu Lao Er's face, and he quickly waved his hands and said, "I don't have any."

"Humph!" He snorted coldly, his eyes full of suspicion, "Could it be that you are the murderer who killed her?"

"It's ridiculous, it's sheer nonsense!" Lu Lao Er was so panicked that his voice changed.

"Then why did you conceal the news of Li's death?"

Liang Hongkai frowned, paused, and stared at Lu Laoer with a sharp gaze, "Do you know who the murderer is?"

For a moment, the air seemed to freeze and there was a dead silence.

At this moment, a woman who looked like a witch strode in. She was dressed in a black robe, a tall crown with strange runes painted on it, and a peach wood sword in her hand.

As soon as he entered the door, he raised his head, his nostrils almost pointing to the sky, and shouted at the top of his voice: "The yin energy here is extremely heavy, it seems that there are ghosts causing trouble, hurry up and command!"

It happened in a flash. She swung the peach wood sword in her hand violently, muttering something. In an instant, a blaze of fire rose from the place where the sword pointed. The flame burned fiercely in the air for a long time before gradually turning into a wisp of green smoke and dissipating into nothingness.

This sudden scene frightened Lu Lao Er and Lu Lao San so much that their legs went limp. They fell to their knees with a plop, banging their foreheads heavily on the ground, begging repeatedly: "Master, you must help us exorcise this evil spirit!"

"Yes! That drought demon has already slaughtered three people. It will definitely be our turn next time. You must save us!"

The witch raised her chin slightly, her eyes looking down at everyone from top to bottom with a hint of contempt, her tone full of arrogance: "Don't worry, even if it's this evil, it's not worth being afraid of."

Lu Laoer kowtowed reverently in a series of "bang bang bang" movements as if he had grabbed a life-saving straw. His forehead instantly became red and swollen, and he kept muttering words of gratitude.

Liang Hongkai looked at the appearance of Lu Laoer and the others and felt that it was ridiculous. Just as he was about to say something, he was suddenly met with the witch's fierce gaze.

In an instant, I felt a chill running down my spine, and I felt uncomfortable all over. Why did this old man look at me... so obscenely?

The witch gripped the peachwood sword tightly in both hands, suddenly raised it high, and pointed it at Li's bedroom. The muscles on her face were tense, her eyes were wide, and she shouted loudly: "The Mysterious Sect of Heaven and Earth, the root of all Qi. I have cultivated for countless eons to prove my supernatural powers. Within and outside the Three Realms, only the Tao is supreme. My body is radiant with golden light, illuminating me. All gods pay homage to me, commanding thunder and lightning. Ghosts and demons are terrified, and spirits and monsters lose their composure. The golden light will quickly appear to protect the real person."

As she chanted the spell, a gust of evil wind suddenly blew up from the surroundings, blowing straight towards Liang Hongkai and Lu Jia, so harshly that people could not open their eyes.

The three of them couldn't help but exclaim in amazement when they saw this. Even Liang Hongkai couldn't help but believe it. This witch really had some skills.

The witch approached Li's bedroom with steady steps. Her momentum was like a force of a thousand pounds, which made people nervous and dared not breathe.

When she arrived at the bedroom door, the witch swung the peach wood sword suddenly. The blade cut through the air, making a "woohoo" sound, as if declaring war on the evil spirits in the house.

She muttered to herself, "I am here today, ordered by Heaven, to defeat you. You, the drought lord, have wreaked havoc on the world and harmed lives. Your crimes are unforgivable! Leave this body immediately and I will spare your life. Otherwise, I will shatter your soul!"

After saying that, he kicked the bedroom door.

In an instant, a black shadow flew over their heads. Everyone was startled and subconsciously ducked to avoid it.

There was a deafening "bang" that made people's ears buzz.

Then, a figure slowly stepped out of the room, accompanied by a scolding voice: "Who is so rude here?"

Liang Hongkai subconsciously looked back quickly, and in an instant, his eyes widened with disbelief.

The witch was seen falling heavily into the ground in an extremely weird and awkward posture - with her legs spread out, her body deeply stuck in it, mud flying everywhere, and the scene was extremely weird.

At this moment, Qin Miaoxi stood at the door, facing the shocked gazes of Liang Hongkai and the Lu family. She looked bewildered, her clear eyes filled with confusion. She just asked blankly, "What's wrong?"
