Chapter 774: Throw Her Out
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Master Dong’s face was pale and his entire body felt uncomfortable.
Among this group of people, there was a coroner who directly went forward to examine the body.
At this moment, Dong Xiyun had also received the news. She could not help but feel a little nervous. She tugged on the handkerchief with both hands and was absent-minded.
“That boorish man from the Xie family…” He actually came over personally to investigate the case?!
Their family had not reported the case yet. Her father was too foolish to not stop him!
“First Young Lady Dong, Young Lady Xie seems to be here too.” The maid servant who came in later said to Dong Xiyun.
When Dong Xiyun heard that, she said angrily, “Why is she here?! She’s a young lady who hasn’t been married yet, and she’s out investigating the case with her elder brother and the Crown Prince. Isn’t she shameless?!”
After saying that, Dong Xiyun tried to restrain herself.
She could not panic. She could not panic.
So what if she was investigating a case?
Her sister had hanged herself. Even if the coroner came, he would not be able to find anything wrong with her!
As for what was inside her stomach, it was even more difficult to find out. She did not use poison!
After Dong Xiyun calmed down, she changed into a set of plain clothes and went to her sister’s side.
After entering the house, she heard the coroner say, “There are no other fatal wounds on Young Lady Dong’s body. There’s only one ligature mark on her neck. Judging from that, she did hang herself. Also, there’s no poison in her mouth and nose…”
Hearing this, Dong Xiyun’s face relaxed. She stepped in, and tears poured down her face. She said to Xie Qiao, “Young Lady Xie… M-My sister will never come back… I really don’t understand why she did this!”
As she said this, she threw herself at Xie Qiao, as if asking for a hug.
Xie Qiao took a big step and suddenly retreated.
The moment she saw her, her expression changed as well.
It was as if there was a bloody mouth on Dong Xiyun’s head. The ghoul’s evil energy soared into the sky, and her gaze was murderous. She looked as if she had gone mad as she wrapped her arms around Dong Xiyun’s neck.
It was her.
The Dong family’s… Second Young Lady.
Xie Qiao let out a sigh of relief. She was a little sad.
Not long ago, she was still a delicate young lady. She was good-looking and had a pleasant voice. She was delicate and lovable, but now, she had actually become a terrifying ghoul.
Her feet were off the ground, and her expression was vicious. She did not look like herself when she was alive at all.
Xie Qiao’s heart palpitated. She could not help but feel that her breathing was a little tight. She could not help but press on her chest.
Behind him, the Crown Prince suddenly supported her.
Zhao Xuanjing saw that Xie Qiao’s expression was particularly terrible. In an instant, his anger rose. He berated Dong Xiyun coldly, “Get lost! Zhou Weizong, throw her ten steps away!”
Zhou Weizong knew that the situation was urgent when he heard the Crown Prince’s tone.
He immediately made a move, not showing face at all.
Dong Xiyun fell heavily after being dragged and thrown. Master Dong quickly chased after her and asked someone to help his daughter up. Then, he dared not say anything.
“How do you feel? Are you better? Are you angry or did you choke?” Zhao Xuanjing was also a little anxious.
Xie Qiao’s body was already much better. The sudden weakness was all because of Dong Xiyun!
Xie Qiao frowned a few times. After the discomfort in her heart subsided, she said helplessly, “It’s the… energy around her that makes me uncomfortable.”
As there were other people from the criminal division, Xie Qiao could not directly say that it was a ghoul.
However, Zhao Xuanjing and Xie Pinggang both understood.
“Is it… that person?” Xie Pinggang asked with underlying meaning.
Xie Qiao nodded.
Xie Pinggang looked at the corpse lying on the bed and could not imagine what it would be like for such a delicate young lady to become a ghoul.
“You’re too timid.” Xie Pinggang seemed to dislike her, but he felt helpless. “Why don’t you and His Highness go to the hall to rest? I’ll take care of this.”
Xie Qiao shook her head.
Dong Yiyun had just died today, and her resentment was already so strong. If…. she still could not figure it out in the first seven days, her obsession would probably become deeper and deeper, and she would really become a vengeful spirit.
