Chapter 431： three murderers

Chapter 431 Three murderers

Dong Yue and Lin Daniu held a simple funeral for the child.

Logically speaking, in a situation like the child's, the child could not be buried immediately, but the child's mother insisted that they had no choice but to agree.

After finishing these, it was already dark.

Dong Yue looked at the woman who was kneeling in front of the grave and was still crying, her heart felt sour.

Lin Daniu couldn't say anything when he saw this scene.

led the crowd to wait.

As the sky gradually darkened, he was still a little worried. If the tragedy happened again, wouldn’t it be

Just at this time, the woman fainted from grief.

Lin Daniu ordered the woman to be carried back first.

Originally, there were few men in the village, but now women are basically taking care of their children at home. There has been no news from men for several years, and it is even more tormenting for the women at home. The ox arranged for a man to watch over the woman.

Dong Yue stood where she was, looking at the woman who was carried away, her heart trembled.

Watching the people walk away, when she was about to leave, she saw something falling from the lady's hand.

At first she saw something in Madam's hand, she didn't pay attention to it at first, but now it was getting dark, and someone nearby lit a torch, the light from the torch made Dong Yue see that the falling thing seemed to be a piece of cloth, but... the top of the cloth There is a flash of gold.

Here are all ordinary farmers. It is not bad to have enough food at home. How can there be such extravagant things?

Thinking, Dong Yue walked away from the crowd, she walked over to pick up the cloth that fell on the ground.

Pick it up and look, it should be torn from something.

"Ma'am?" Qing Lan also saw the difference in this piece of cloth.

Dong Yue looked over.

Qing Lan explained, "This should be something from the palace."

Dong Yue carefully looked at the cloth in her hand, then at Qinglan.

Zuo Qing was also curious, how could Qing Lan conclude that this cloth is from the palace?

Qinglan saw no one around, so she told what she knew.

"When I was in Han's house, I saw the eunuchs in the palace come to look for Mr. Han. The clothes on them are basically the same color as this piece of fabric, but I don't know what the pattern means?"

"How do you say it?" Dong Yue didn't know much about the imperial palace, and she didn't know much about Qing Lan's explanation.

"The slaves know that the ranks of the eunuchs in the palace are obvious. There are also big differences in their clothes and embroidery. The gold thread on it should be of a high rank."

Dong Yue saw this and put it away carefully.

Since it is something from the palace, how could a peasant woman have this thing?

Suddenly thought of the lost child?

Could it be that when someone started to attack a child, the child found danger and made such an action out of desperation?

Think about it, think it's possible.

Soon, Dong Yue set her sights on the child's mother.

She must be able to explain to herself.

With doubts in my heart, I returned to the Liu residence.

There was an unexpected situation today, which did not prevent the arrival of the child.

Dong Yue returned to the Liu Mansion, butler Li explained the situation in detail, and Dong Yue walked quickly to the Paradise.

Far away, bursts of laughter were heard.

When I came to the door, I saw a group of children playing with Liu Ru.

They were playing eagle and chicken.

Little children don’t know the dangers around them. There is food here, and they can have fun. They forget about homesickness.

Watching them play from a distance for a while, Dong Yue didn't bother, turned and went into the kitchen.

I thought I should make some delicious food for the children.

Entering the kitchen, Chen Ma has already started to get busy with her maids. Dong Yue walked in and was very satisfied when she saw the prepared ingredients.

They can do well without directing.

When Madam Chen saw Madam coming, she quickly came to her, "Madam?"

"You have worked hard."

"Slaves don't work hard." Chen Ma replied with a smile.

"Prepare some more snacks, but not too many."

Dong Yue knew that the conditions of the farmers were not very good, and they suddenly ate too much, which was not easy to digest and was not conducive to the growth of children.

"Yes, the servant girl knows."

"Also, prepare some soup."

"Yes, ma'am."

Dong Yue told Chen Ma again, "Try to make the steamed buns smaller these days, so that children can eat them more conveniently."

Dong Yue told her to leave, and the maids in the kitchen surrounded Chen Ma, "Chen Ma, Madam is so kind!"

Chen Ma took a look at the maidservants and took the opportunity to warn them, "Remember, it is our wife who is kind-hearted. We slaves should not be sorry to the master."

"Yes." The six maids answered in unison.

Mother Chen smiled when she saw it.

She has a shallow relationship with the child, looking at the maids with these six signs, she treats them as her own daughters.

The more you look at it, the more satisfied you will be.

Dong Yue returned to the backyard, simply took a hot bath, changed her clothes, held the torn piece of fabric in her hand, and looked at it carefully.

Not long after, Steward Li came and said that the horse catcher had arrived.

Dong Yue immediately went to the front hall when she heard it.

Going to the front hall, Ma Tutou was walking back and forth anxiously. When he heard the movement and saw Dong Yue, he hurriedly took out the dossier that he ordered someone to copy not long ago.

"Madam, this is their file."

Dong Yue held it in her hand and looked at it carefully.

A stack of papers was originally weightless, but Dong Yue knew that each piece of paper was a small life, and she suddenly felt heavy in her hands.

Looked and looked again, her heart was extremely heavy.

Ma Tuotou stood beside him without saying a word.

After Dong Yue finished reading, Ma Tutou asked, "Did Lady Dong find anything?"

"Can I meet this author?"

Ma Tutou was a little embarrassed.

Stealing the dossier is no longer what it should be, goodbye Zuo Zuo, this matter cannot be covered up.

Thinking of Mr. Chen from Dali Temple, who is strict in handling affairs, he was alerted all over his body.

Dong Yue could see the embarrassment of this person. In fact, what she wanted to see was the dead bodies of the children. Thinking of the children who were buried today, those children might have already been buried.

Death is already unfortunate, and she doesn't want to dig a grave anymore.

"I want to know if so many cases are committed by the same person." Dong Yue saw his embarrassment and expressed her thoughts.

"Is it necessary to see the author?"

Dong Yue thought for a while, then said, "It's better to see the corpse."

"It's easy to handle." Ma Tutou heaved a sigh of relief.

"Not buried?"

"No, the case is not closed yet, and the children's bodies are placed on the village."

When Dong Yue heard this, she couldn't wait any longer, so she told Qinglan that she left with Zuo Qing and Ma Tutou.

On the way there, Ma Tutou gave a general idea, hoping that Dong Yue would be prepared. When he arrived at the village, Dong Yue didn't respond when he saw the corpses.

After looking at the corpses of several victims, she gave an affirmative answer, "There are three murderers."

"Miss Dong, are you sure?"

"Yes." Dong Yue has always been serious about her professional field and such a serious matter.

Glancing at the cold corpses one by one, she touched the bottom of her heart, and couldn't control her tears from streaming down.

Zuo Qing’s concentration was a little weaker, so he took a few glances, then went outside to vomit,

She didn't eat anything all day, she just retched.

Just getting better, I suddenly heard footsteps in the distance.

Zuo Qing didn't care about anything else, and hurried in, "Ma'am, someone is here."
