Chapter 226: Looking for the Corpse
"That should be it. Haha, you won't be scared after knowing that, right?" Tie Wandao said with a smile.
"There's nothing to be afraid of. It's not like I haven't killed anyone before. What's more, she just chose to sing the song of the Blue-Armored Man. There's nothing to be afraid of even if this person who deserves to die turns into a ghost!" Dong Su knew that Tie Wandao liked to hear words that mocked the Blue-Armored Man, so he said this on purpose.
The two talked about something else. Tie Wandao had to stay in the conference room to deal with other matters, so Dong Su was about to leave.
When Dong Su opened the door of the conference room, a figure appeared in front of him - this person was Tie Jinjue.
Dong Su didn't expect that there would be someone at the door when he opened it. In addition, he thought Tie Jinjue had just left Bakong Palace. Therefore, when he first saw Tie Jinjue, he felt it was very abrupt. But he immediately came to his senses and greeted Tie Jinjue respectfully.
Hearing Dong Su greet Tie Jinjue, Tie Wandao in the conference room also felt a little strange - Tie Jinjue was still at the door?
It turned out that when Tie Jinjue discussed things with Tie Wandao before, he used a piece of paper to make notes, but when he left, he forgot the piece of paper with all the things recorded in the conference room. After Dong Su entered the conference room, Tie Jinjue did leave the Bakong Palace, but when he found that the piece of paper with important things recorded was not brought out, he returned to the conference room to look for it. When he arrived at the door of the conference room again, Dong Su was reporting to Tie Wandao that he had killed the blue-armored man, so he listened outside the door. When he heard Tie Wandao mention that Muxi Pavilion had imprisoned a woman, he remembered a lot of old things, and he looked sad for a while, and then clenched his fists tightly. He had been concentrating on listening to the two people in the conference room no longer talking about that matter, but his thoughts could not be retracted immediately. The moment Dong Su opened the door of the conference room, he just came back to his senses from the state of deep thought.
Dong Su greeted him and left. After he went in to get the paper that recorded the important matters, he also left the Bakong Palace.
Chapter 48
At the second watch that night, the wind was strong.
Qin Ding tiptoed towards Muxi Pavilion. He was very careful along the way, always watching to see if anyone was following him.
After entering the Muxi Pavilion, he lit a candle after making sure that he was the only one around.
Since he was acting alone, and he was going to Muxi Pavilion, a place that seemed gloomy even during the day, and he was looking for a corpse, and he needed to take the corpse out after finding it, so he couldn't help but feel fear. The wind outside made a strange sound, and he didn't know what the corpse he was looking for had been treated like when it died, and he felt a chill on his back. What if there was a sudden piercing scream in Muxi Pavilion? What if the corpse covered in blood suddenly stood up? What if there was a hand reaching out from behind? He couldn't help but imagine many situations, and the more he imagined, the more frightened he felt, but he had some difficulty controlling his thoughts. So, when he took the candle to shine in the basement, he squinted at first, and then opened his eyes little by little, so as not to let the tragic state of the corpse appear clearly in his eyes all at once.
He saw the large shadow of a hand on the wall, but he did not see the body.
Qin Ding was shocked - where is the body? Could a dead body move on its own?
It turned out that the shadow of the hand on the wall was the shadow of his own left hand. He was holding the candle with his right hand, and the position of his left hand at that time was just right for the candlelight to cast a shadow on the basement wall.
