Chapter 21 I am your retribution

Xie Shangqi was lying face down on the ground. When Lu turned him over, the skin on both sides of his face was half hanging on his cheekbones, covered in blood and a mangled mess. His eyes were wide open, and his eyeballs seemed to be about to fall out of their sockets. Lu was so scared that she almost fell to the ground.

"My dear? My dear!"

Lu stretched out her hand tremblingly, wanting to feel Xie Shangqi's breath, but was frightened by those devil-like eyes and dared not go any closer.

She ordered the nanny who was following her to go forward and see if the person was still alive.

Mammy gritted her teeth and stretched out her hand to quickly stroke the man's nose.

"No, no breath!"

Hearing this, Mrs. Lu almost fainted.

Is the sky going to fall?
She looked blank for a long time and didn't respond for a long time.

Naturally, he didn't notice that a figure quietly left as if without touching the ground.

"How could...how could this happen?"

Mrs. Lu murmured, still finding it hard to believe: "He was fine just now, how could he suddenly..." He died just like that?
fake.

This must all be fake.

She refused to accept reality.

The nanny next to her sobbed and said, "Madam, the master is gone. You have to make a decision quickly!"

"The old lady is still waiting for our reply."

"If I wait too long, I'm afraid..."

If Zhou comes over later and sees this scene and gets angry and does something bad, the Xie family will be in even greater sorrow.

Mrs. Lu tried to calm herself down, but she still couldn't control her panic.

Looking up, he saw Song Lan standing in the distance, and he instantly made a decision in his heart.

"Song Lan, it's you, isn't it? It's you! It's you who killed the master, and he is your uncle!"

Lu was about to wail about her injustice and try to put all the blame on Song Lan, wanting him to die at least a layer of skin peeled off.

She has lost her daughter.

Now she has lost her husband.

My son is not in the capital, and distant water cannot quench immediate thirst. I am afraid I can’t rely on him for the time being.

Lu looked at Song Lan suddenly with fierce eyes.

Then the only thing he could do was to find a way to scrape off a layer from this girl and use it as a support in the future.

Besides, if Song Lan became a murderer, who would care about those insignificant little jokes that Yu Yao played?

The fact that Song Lan killed his parents in public is enough to show how despicable his character is.

Yuyao was merely acting on behalf of Heaven.

After Lu thought about all this in her mind, her confidence increased immediately.

"Song Lan..."

Just as Lu was about to continue her aggressive attitude, she was suddenly interrupted by a scolding.

"Jingzhao Prefecture is investigating the case!"

"Please get out of the way, everyone!"

The leader glared at his deputy who was chanting beside him, then glanced at the faces of everyone present. With a serious expression, he took two steps forward with his sword, and said politely, "I am Jiao Bubai, the inspector of the left army of Jingzhao Prefecture."

He swept his eyes over the people present again and explained his purpose: "I received a report that someone was committing a crime in public in front of the Xie family residence in Que'er Lane, so I came here to investigate."

Mrs. Lu was panicked. Why did the people from Jingzhao Prefecture come? She didn't ask anyone to report the case.
She was so confused that she naturally did not notice that the person who had just left quietly had now returned to his original position and was standing there inconspicuously.

"is her!"

Lu came to her senses and immediately pointed at Song Lan, accusing her: "Song Lan! She killed my husband!"

"Sir, you have to make the decision for me! Sir!"

"My husband died tragically!"

Mrs. Lu cried and told of Xie Shangqi's miserable condition. His face was peeled off and his eyeballs were beaten out. It was so miserable and pitiful.

Jiao Bubai and the others looked at Xie Shangqi, who had been turned over and was lying on the ground with his body intact and without any obvious injuries, with subtle expressions on their faces.

Mrs. Lu was unaware of anything and was still pointing at Song Lan, cursing and accusing him.

"I didn't expect that my husband was soft-hearted and brought back to raise as a girl, but the girl turned out to be a wolf cub!" Song Lan stood there without saying a word, as if watching a clown, letting Lu jump up and down, throwing slander and accusing her of intentional parricide, which was unforgivable.

Jiao Bubai's gaze shifted to Song Lan following Lu's voice.

The girl was tall and slender, and the dim morning light sprinkled on her body, as if giving her a golden body.

Jiao Bubai couldn't help but admire: This girl is so pretty.

Also very emotionally stable.

It was as if the crazy woman in front of her who was crying and making a fuss was not the one who was cursing viciously. She remained calm, tolerant and peaceful.

Tsk...why would he use words like "tolerant and peaceful" to describe a lively girl in her prime?

Jiao Bubai felt disgusted with himself in his heart.

However, Song Lan did give him a very tolerant feeling at this time.

For example, when facing the unreasonable demands of the extreme elders at home, you are helpless and it is not easy to hit them directly, so you can only ignore it and pretend to be happy, just to please them.

So miserable.

Jiao Bubai hissed softly, feeling that Song Lan was a little pitiful.

It seems that this girl's parents died early, and she lives with her grandparents?

"Song Lan, aren't you afraid of retribution?" Lu's eyes widened and she scolded harshly.

As if she was really right.

"Aunt, not everyone who speaks louder is right. Please stop making a fuss."

Song Lan's eyes were calm.

"If there really is retribution in this world, bad guys wouldn't be so arrogant and proud, pointing fingers at the victims and cursing them."

She spoke clearly and without any emotion: "But I believe that I will be the one to pay the price for your evil deeds."

Lu stared at Song Lan intently and soon broke out in a cold sweat.

Because Song Lan didn't even open his mouth!

It's even far away from her!

But just now, she heard someone laughing in her ear, saying something like "I am the retribution for your evil deeds", and blowing in her ear.

The cold wind was chilly and Song Lan's voice was eerie.

Ah!
Mrs. Lu screamed uncontrollably, covering her ears, as if she had gone mad with fear.

"Sir, this family seems a little weird. They are talking nonsense and making a lot of noise. I wonder if they are crazy and hurting someone by accident?"

Jiao Bubai's deputy came closer to the man, looking a little worried.

"Take your men to the nearby households and ask if they heard anything or know any clues."

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a white-haired old man walking towards him.

He first bowed to the air, as if he was greeting someone.

He looked at Song Lan again and nodded slightly as a greeting.

Song Lan seemed surprised, and paused for two breaths before he came to his senses and slightly bent his knees in return.

The old man felt quite relieved.

Finally, his gaze fell on Lu, who was covering her ears, screaming and shouting that there was a ghost, Song Lan was a ghost, and Song Lan was an evil ghost. He snorted coldly and laughed in anger.

He looks like he looks down on others.

The old man waved his sleeves and walked past the door of Xie's house, heading straight for Jiao Bubai.

"Master Jiao."

He saluted and introduced himself with a serious expression: "I am the judge of the Dali Temple - Su Hezhi."

"Master Su."

Jiao Bubai confirmed the person's identity and quickly bowed in return.

Su Hezhi got straight to the point and said, "This morning, just before dawn, I heard the Xie family next door making a commotion, swearing at people with foul language. I was annoyed that my sweet dreams were disturbed, so I was about to go over to their house to argue, but as soon as I left the house, I saw the whole process of Mr. Xie's sudden death."

"Oh?"

Jiao Bubai raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Song Lan subconsciously.
