“Was it you?

“It must be you!

“We trusted you so much and gave you a good daughter, but in the end, we got a cold corpse. Heavens, this is going to take my lif?

“Give me back my daughter, give me back my daughter, I’ll fight it out with you~”

Old Lady Sun cried as she rushed towards MO Ruyue. Gu Ying shot forward to block MO Ruyue. The other three guards behind MO Ruyue also immediately protected her.

“You don’t have to cry. We’ve already reported it to the authorities. The authorities will investigate how your daughter died, but before that, please don’t spout nonsense.”

“It was you. Yesterday, it was you who pushed my daughter into the water, and today, she is in such a terrible situation. My darling…”

Old Lady Sun would bite whoever she caught.

MO Ruyue heard Old Lady Sun pointing at Gu Ying’s nose and scolding him for what had happened yesterday. Didn’t Sun Nu’s parents arrive just now, so how did they know what had happened in the village yesterday?

NO!

Of course, MO Ruyue wasn’t the only one who noticed this. Gu Ying also noticed this.

“You were still at home yesterday. I was the one who sent someone to call you over. We’re clearly separated by a mountain, but you all saw what happened in the village yesterday.”

“Since you saw Gu Ying pushing her into the water yesterday, you should have seen how she died before!”

How could Gu Ying let Old Lady Sun get close to him? He didn’t need to do anything. The three guards separated Old Lady Sun.

These three guards were tall and strong. No matter how strong Old Lady Sun was, she did not dare to force them, but her daughter could not die in vain.

Old Lady Sun turned back and wailed on her daughter’s corpse, crying and cursing.

When the students at the hospital heard that something had happened here, they came over and saw that Sun Nu was dead. All of them were so scared that their faces turned pale, and they all huddled together.

MO Ruyue ordered the guards to keep the scene under control so that no one else could touch the deceased.

Sun Nu’s parents were furious and sad at this moment. How could they listen to them? Their daughter was dead now, and she was lying there and not letting them restrain themselves. What right did they have?

That was their daughter!

“Knock them unconscious.”

Upon hearing MO Ruyue’s words, the guard immediately went forward and gave Old Lady Sun and Old Man Sun a hand knife each. The two of them fainted on the ground.

Not long after, County Magistrate Wu came over with his official. He was

clearly riding a horse, but he was sweating as he ran, as if the horse had ridden him here.

He had no choice. MO Ruyue’s status was different now. She was a princess, and a murder had happened in the village where the princess lived. If he was not careful, he would lose his head.

Given his relationship with MO Ruyue, he did not want anything to happen in their village to implicate him. Moreover, the entire Lianshan County was MO Ruyue’s fief. If he was not doing well, his subordinates would not be doing well either!

“Let the coroner do an autopsy on the spot.”

“I found a strangulation mark on her neck. I’ll let the coroner examine the rest carefully. ”

Since MO Ruyue had spoken, how could County Magistrate Wu not allow it?

However, there were still some concerns about the body examination. The deceased was the most important. Besides, Sun Nu was a woman. MO Ruyue sent someone home to bring over some unwanted bedsheets and surrounded the scene so that the coroner could examine it with peace of mind.

Not long after, the coroner finished the preliminary autopsy. If she wanted to be more careful, she would have to open her stomach to see if she had been poisoned. This was not easy to do here. She had to take it to the government office.

The coroner tidied up the corpse and asked someone to remove the bedsheet. He told County Magistrate Wu this, and County Magistrate Wu motioned for the coroner to announce the autopsy results in public.

“The deceased was defiled when she was alive and strangled to death. She struggled strongly when she died.”

As he spoke, the coroner raised Sun Nu’s hands for others to see.

“The victim’s fingernails had the flesh of the perpetrator.”

“The deceased was thrown into the water after death and soaked in the water for less than two hours.”

Everyone was shocked when they heard the coroner’s autopsy results.

Who did such a wicked thing to defile a girl, kill her, and throw her into the pond!

In other words, Sun Nu had been dead for at most two hours.

She had soaked in the water for two hours, but the flesh under her fingernails had not been washed away by the water. From this, it could be seen that she had used all her strength to remove a lot of flesh.

According to this characteristic, the murderer’s scope was much smaller. The scratches on the murderer’s body must be very heavy.

Sun Nu’s body could not be left by the pond like this. The villagers were also in a state of panic.

At this moment, Sun Nu’s parents had already woken up. The moment they woke up, they immediately started crying again.

Seeing that the county magistrate had actually come over, they knelt down in front of County Magistrate Wu.

“Master, you must help our daughter…”

“This official will definitely find out the murderer and give justice to the deceased. You guys go home first. This matter will be difficult for a while.”

It was also a tragic thing for County Magistrate Wu to send off Sun Nu’s parents.

Sun Nu’s parents immediately became anxious when they saw County Magistrate Wu’s reaction. The two of them pointed at Gu Ying anxiously.

“It’s him, it’s him! He’s the murderer!”

“Please be careful with your words.”

“We can’t take action just because you said so. We have to get evidence step by step before we could arrest someone and determine the culprit.”

However, no matter what County Magistrate Wu said, Sun Nu’s parents insisted that the murderer was Gu Ying.

“I’m willing to let the county magistrate examine myself.”

“Since the victim’s fingernails had the criminal’s flesh, then he would have to check if there are any scratches on my body.”

Gu Ying was very frank in front of everyone. He was very angry. He had just gotten along with MO Ruyue, and now he had encountered such a troublesome matter.

The murderer had better not fall into his hands, otherwise…

The other old men in the village felt that Gu Ying’s words made sense, so they all nodded and expressed their willingness to cooperate with County Magistrate Wu to check his body.

He didn’t want to be mistaken as the murderer.

There was definitely no murderer in the village.

They were all men, so when they were checking, they even let Sun Nu’s tather personally watch from the side.

“How could it not be him?”

But the truth was the truth.

Gu Ying and County Magistrate Wu had the same thoughts. They had to catch the murderer. This was MO Ruyue’s territory. She had only been a princess for a short time and was already facing such a situation. If she did not handle it well, it was inevitable that someone would make a fuss about it.

This criminal had killed Sun Nu in order to frame them. It was obvious that he was targeting them. If he was targeting them, then so be it. It was unforgivable to joke around with human lives.

This was simply intolerable!

If he was caught, he had to be executed on the spot.

County Magistrate Wu sent out two teams of officers to search the other villages. He himself led a few other officers to search the house where Sun Nu lived, hoping to find any clues.

This investigation really allowed him to find some clues. In Sun Nu’s blanket, he found a ball of paper. On the ball of paper, the words ‘Meet me under the willow tree at midnight’ were written.

This was a huge breakthrough. He just needed to find the person who wrote this paper ball.

The girls in the medical school were all interrogated about the people or things that Sun Nu had come into contact with.

At the same time, Sun Nu’s parents were also under strict supervision. These two people were also very suspicious.

On the surface, they were afraid that they would do something stupid because of the loss of their beloved daughter, but in reality, they were under supervision.

These two people had just arrived at West River Village this morning, but they knew everything that had happened in West River Village the day before. This was very strange.

However, the old couple insisted that Gu Ying was the murderer and did not say anything else.

If they were asked how they knew what happened in the village yesterday, they would say that they heard it from others..
