Chapter 193: Prying Information from the Dead Men

As soon as Qin Miaoxi finished speaking, the fake yamen runner widened his eyes in horror and rushed towards the other two people uncontrollably, trying his best to chop them down with his sword.

He asked in horror: "What...what did you do to me?"

Qin Miaoxi attacked the other man in black and said coldly, "Since you want to kill me, you should be prepared to be killed in return. Two against two, fair!"

Suddenly there was chaos on the field. The men in black were obviously disrupted by her actions, and their sluggish bodies caused them to retreat step by step.

They were defeated by Qin Miaoxi in just three or four rounds, and all the weapons and poisons on them were wiped out.

Qin Miaoxi looked at the three people kneeling in front of her with satisfaction. She looked at the poison pills taken out of their mouths and clicked her tongue twice: "I didn't expect you were still death warriors. Is this all you can do?"

The three of them fell to the ground like dead pigs, without any strength to resist, and even death was difficult for them.

She slowly walked up to the bailiff, squatted down, and gently lifted his chin with her dagger. "Tell me, who sent you here? Who is behind this human sacrifice case?"

The fake yamen runner gritted his teeth and refused to speak.

Qin Miaoxi was not in a hurry, she just raised her knife and slashed.

"what!"

A scream that resounded through the sky came from beside him, and the dagger in Qin Miaoxi's hand pierced the other person's heart fiercely, and hot blood splattered on the face of the fake yamen runner.

"You...you actually killed someone!"

Qin Miaoxi was amused by his words, "You all want to kill me, why can't I kill you back?"

The fake yamen runner's face turned pale instantly, beads of sweat the size of beans oozed out of his forehead, and his body trembled slightly with fear.

He looked at the lifeless bodies of his companions beside him, a low whimper came from his throat, but he still clenched his teeth. They were dead men and could not utter a word.

Qin Miaoxi sneered and tapped his face lightly with the dagger in her hand. "Do you think I can't do anything to you if you don't say anything?"

Her voice was soft, yet held a chilling menace.

She slowly stood up, her eyes swept over the two remaining people, and said indifferently: "Whoever speaks first will live. Otherwise, he will suffer the same fate as you."

One of the men in black had a flickering look in his eyes, and it was obvious that he was beginning to waver.

However, before he could open his mouth, the fake yamen runner suddenly shouted, "Shut up! Don't forget your master's methods! You'll die if you tell him!"

Qin Miaoxi's eyes flashed with a hint of coldness when she heard this. She squatted down, looking the fake yamen runner in the eye, and said with a hint of sarcasm, "Oh? It seems your master is even more terrifying than me? Then I want to see who is more powerful, his methods, or my sword."

Before she finished her words, the dagger in her hand had already slashed across the fake yamen runner's arm, and blood gushed out instantly.

The fake yamen runner groaned, but still bit his lips tightly, refusing to scream. Instead, he sneered, "What's the point of your ability?"

Qin Miaoxi's lips curled up, her smile growing stronger, a playful glint in her eyes: "You are indeed a man of steel, with backbone! I just don't know if you can still be so tough later. I'll wait and see."

She stood up and walked to the other man in black, gently placing the dagger against his throat. She said nonchalantly, "What about you? Do you want to try my methods too?"

The man in black was trembling all over, his eyes full of fear.

He opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but was interrupted by the fake yamen runner's roar: "If you dare to say it, I will kill you first!"

But just as he finished speaking, he suddenly burst into laughter, and blood gushed out of his arm again, "You...what did you do to me again?"

Qin Miaoxi suddenly realized, "Oh! I just applied some bleeding medicine on you, you don't have to be too grateful to me."

The fake yamen runner laughed even louder, "Thank you for listening to me."

Qin Miaoxi's smile deepened. "Oh, by the way, I forgot to tell you one thing. If people laugh for a long time, they will die! I've never seen anyone die from laughing before, so today I can finally open my eyes."

The fake bailiff wanted to tear her into pieces at this moment, but his uncontrollable laughter made him collapse and despair.

Qin Miaoxi raised her eyebrows and turned to look at the dumbfounded man in black. "Come on, come on, I will never be partial to one person over another. Whatever he has, you must have too."

She smiled faintly and approached: "Do you think I can't find out if you don't tell me? Since you dare to attack me, you should know that I have never been a lamb to be slaughtered."

After saying that, the sharp dagger was already placed on his neck. With just a slight force, a blood mark immediately oozed out of the black-clothed man's neck.

The man in black was still hesitating when at this moment the sound of hurried horse hooves came from afar.

Qin Miaoxi saw someone on horseback galloping towards them in the distance. She raised the corners of her lips slightly and whispered to the man in black, "You don't have much chance. When they arrive, you won't even have the chance to speak."

The man in black felt like he was being stared at by a venomous snake. He finally broke down and begged for mercy, "No, I'll tell you, I'll tell you! It's... it's Lord Zhao! He sent us here! He's the one behind the human sacrifice!"

Qin Miaoxi was slightly stunned at first. She thought the person behind it would be Cui Zhibao, but she didn't expect it to be the editor. But how could a seventh-rank official do so many things?

Upon hearing this, the fake yamen runner's eyes were bloodshot and he roared, "Traitor! The master will not let you go!"

Qin Miaoxi sneered and stabbed the fake yamen runner's chest with the dagger in her hand without hesitation, ending his roar.

She stood up, dusted off her hands, and kicked the man in black on the back of the neck. He rolled his eyes instantly and fainted on the spot.

"Traitor? Your master will be with you soon."

Having killed so many people, only by paying with one's own life can the resentment of the dead be appeased.

The sound of horse hooves was getting closer and closer. Qin Miaoxi looked up but froze in her tracks, staring at the man in the moonlight in astonishment. "Why are you back?"

The man jumped down from the wall, the moonlight shining on his face. It was Lu Qingchen who had left the capital to serve the emperor.

He walked up to Qin Miaoxi with a playful smile and said, "Everything has been arranged. I will officially return to Beijing in a few days. I heard that you were troubled by the case, so I came back to help you!"

Qin Miaoxi pursed her lips and said unnaturally: "Who are you listening to..."

But Lu Qingchen looked at the three people lying on the ground and subconsciously explained: "I didn't kill anyone, they were all dead men, so I..."

Lu Qingchen looked at her worriedly, "Are you okay?"

Qin Miaoxi obviously didn't expect him to ask this, and replied in a daze: "I'm fine."

"I'm glad they're all okay. I know they're still alive."

Lu Qingchen comforted them with a smile. Although the two were covered in blood, he was keenly aware of their weak breathing. He knew that Qin Miaoxi was an excellent doctor, and it would not be difficult for her to create the illusion of being killed.

Qin Miaoxi felt as if her heart was scratched by a cat's claws, it was itchy, that was the feeling of being trusted.

In order to make the assassin speak, she pretended to pierce the man's heart, but in fact she did not hurt the vital parts. Everything was just a means to confuse them.

"Have you found out the murderer?" Although Lu Qingchen asked this, he did not hold out any hope. It was extremely difficult to pry information out of the dead man's mouth. He was afraid that he had committed suicide by taking poison before he could even say a word.

Qin Miaoxi smiled brightly, "I found out it was Editor Zhao."

"Ah? You actually asked that." Lu Qingchen looked at her in shock and asked curiously, "What method did you use?"

"Laugh! They'll talk when they've laughed enough."

? ?

What a weird answer.

"Can you drive a carriage?"

Lu Qingchen patted his chest and said, "Of course, I am the most almighty and knowledgeable dandy in Jingzhao."

"That's good. You can drive later."

As she spoke, Qin Miaoxi asked him to stuff the three people into the carriage. Although the three people would not die for the time being, as important witnesses, they still needed to go through the procedures.

Lu Qingchen: "..."

Did he rush back just to be a coachman?

But seeing Qin Miaoxi's tired look, forget it! I can only pamper my wife myself, and her career will be protected by her.

Lu Qingchen drove the carriage and galloped towards the capital. It was time to settle this case.
