Chapter 25 The Seventh Name

Su Liuyue picked up a file and asked, "Is Ping Shaoyin deliberately testing me? Could it be that Ping Shaoyin didn't notice such an obvious inappropriateness?"

Ping Shaoyin narrowed his eyes slightly, his super eyesight allowed him to see at once that the woman was holding a list. At this moment, she had folded the file and held it in the air, with the exposed side being the end of the file, where a name that was originally written on it had been crossed out with conspicuous red ink.

He had of course also read that file, which recorded the names of all the victims in the case fifteen years ago.

Su Liuyue said: "There are a total of seven names recorded here. The first six names are women who were killed fifteen years ago, and the last name has been crossed out. Although most of the writing has been covered, it can still be seen that this person's name is next to the word "女", so it should be a woman.

However, there is no other record of this person in other files! I guess that fifteen years ago, this woman was considered to be involved in this case by the investigators at the time, but later on, due to some reasons, her name was crossed out. "

As for why they thought she was related to the case and why her name was crossed out at the end, there are many possibilities.

Ping Shaoyin raised his eyebrows slightly, "Do you think that this inexplicable seventh person will be a breakthrough in the case?"

"do not know."

Su Liuyue shook her head, "But when investigating a case, we cannot miss any clues, especially something so obvious that cannot be missed.

Ping Shaoyin, I have finished reading all the files here, and I can go see Kang Langjun, who was Shaoyin of Jingzhao Prefecture back then."

As soon as she said this, even Feng Yang, who usually had no expression, looked at her in surprise.

She finished reading so many files so quickly?!
From the time she started watching till now, only...more than an hour has passed, right?
Su Liuyue seemed to see their surprise and curled her lips secretly, "These official documents are full of verbose and useless content. If you want to read them all word for word, you have to read until tomorrow morning."

Whether in modern times or ancient times, the working styles of official agencies are really similar.

Ping Shaoyin looked at her for a while with a half-smile in his eyes, then stood up and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Miss Su. I will ask Feng Yang to take you back later. Tomorrow morning, I will have someone pick you up at the Dali Temple."

go back?

Su Liuyue was so excited about investigating a case at the moment that she almost blurted out that she would go to the Dali Temple tonight. Fortunately, she held herself back in time.

If it were in the past, once she caught the truth, she would definitely investigate it without any hesitation and work overtime!
She glanced at Ping Shaoyin, bowed and said, "Okay, then I'll trouble Ping Shaoyin."

After saying that, he followed Feng Yang out of the room.

Ping Shaoyin had been standing there, watching her gradually walking away with his deep black eyes. His eyes were cold, but the corners of his mouth were slightly raised.

This woman was more interesting than he thought.

Just now, her face was clearly filled with a feeling of being unsatisfied.

As soon as Su Liuyue walked out of Jingzhao Mansion, she was startled to find Yun and Xue Chengyi standing in front of the gate of Jingzhao Mansion, walking back and forth with anxious looks on their faces.

The first person to discover Su Liuyue was Er Si. When Er Si saw her, her face lit up with joy and she shouted, "The girl is out!"

Yun and Xue Chengyi were stunned, and hurriedly walked to Su Liuyue, looking her up and down several times nervously. Yun even held her hand and asked anxiously: "Liuyue, are you okay? Were you bullied in there?!"

Su Liuyue couldn't help but look soft, and said, "Don't worry, aunt. I helped Lu Shaoyin of Jingzhao Prefecture investigate a case before. Lu Shaoyin invited me in this time because he wanted me to help him investigate another case."

Su Liuyue was somewhat suspicious of Ping Shaoyin and simply did not mention his name.

Yun and Xue Chengyi had just heard from Ersi and Eran about Su Liuyue helping Jingzhao Prefecture investigate a case. Although they were extremely shocked, they knew that now was not the time to ask further questions.

Xue Chengyi already had a premonition in his heart and couldn't help asking, "Which case is it?"

Su Liuyue looked at Xue Chengyi and said, "It's... the serial murder case of women that my eldest cousin was involved in. The case hasn't been solved yet, and I can't tell my uncle and aunt more details for the time being." Yun and Xue Chengyi were even more shocked and couldn't help but look at each other.

Su Liuyue was worried that they would ask too many questions, so she added, "I have been in Jingzhao Prefecture just now, reading the files related to this case. I am very tired. Tomorrow morning, I have to continue investigating the case. Uncle, aunt, I will definitely help my cousin clear his grievances. As for other matters, I will explain them to you after the case is over."

When Yun heard this, she suddenly felt anxious and distressed. Although she had a lot of questions, she couldn't bear to ask them.

Xue Chengyi looked at Su Liuyue deeply, and suddenly sighed, and said in a deep voice: "I didn't expect that my son was in trouble. I can't do anything by myself, and I need you, a little girl, to come forward.

My uncle is really useless..."

Su Liuyue was slightly stunned and said, "Uncle, don't think like that..."

Xue Chengyi shook his head and said, "Liu Yue, I'll leave your cousin in your care."

After saying that, he turned around and walked towards the carriage not far away with heavy steps.

Yun leaned close to Su Liuyue and whispered, "When your uncle came here just now, he was very anxious. He sent people to find some officials he had previously befriended, and even went to his superior Feng Zhongcheng to ask for help. You know, although your uncle is carefree, he still has some scholarly pride in his bones, and he won't easily ask for help.

However, when those people heard that this matter was related to the case of Jingzhao Prefecture, they avoided it as much as possible... Feng Zhongcheng didn't even see your uncle, your uncle must be heartbroken..."

Who in the entire Xinjing doesn't know who is in charge of Jingzhao Prefecture? At this critical juncture, who dares to come forward easily?

Su Liuyue pursed her lips slightly, and saw Yun's eyes red as she said, "Liuyue, although my uncle and aunt are too embarrassed to say this, your cousin can only rely on you now..."

If they were not incompetent, why would they need a woman like Liu Yue to do such a bloody and horrific task as investigating a case?

What's more, Jingzhao Prefecture actually let Liu Yue participate in such a serious case. Although Yun was not a member of the court, he instinctively felt that something was wrong.

But now, they have no other choice.

Su Liuyue quickly said in a soothing tone, "Don't worry, auntie. I'm going to be out early and back late investigating cases these days. For convenience, I'll stay at Xue's house these days. As for the Su family, I'll have to trouble you to talk to them."

"Oh! Let's leave this matter to my aunt."

Shao Yin Ping kept his promise. Early the next morning, he sent someone to pick up Su Liuyue. However, it was not Feng Yang who sent her there last night, but a yamen runner from Jingzhao Prefecture.

Seeing Su Liuyue coming out, the bailiff was slightly stunned.

The woman in front of me had her hair tied up in a bun and was wearing a sky-blue round-necked, narrow-sleeved gown. Her originally beautiful face, with this attire and special makeup, actually gave off a hint of heroic spirit.

At first glance, he is definitely a handsome young man!

But he just frowned and glanced twice, said nothing, and led the way.

After arriving at the Dali Temple, Feng Yang appeared. Like the yamen runner just now, he looked at Su Liuyue with some surprise, and then silently led the way.

No one knew how Feng Yang got there. They wandered around in the Dali Temple for a long time and finally arrived at the entrance of a secret dungeon. During this time, they didn't encounter anyone.

Feng Yang said "please" at the entrance of the dungeon and walked in first.

A thoughtful look flashed across Su Liuyue's eyes as she followed him.

After entering the dungeon, she couldn't help but be stunned.
