Flower Moon

Chapter 256 Another murder

A house that has passed away may not be comfortable to live in. Moreover, the deceased person was still Tao Yue'er's best friend, so Tao Yue'er would not be in a good mood.

Everyone thought that Tao Yue'er would agree to Ji Hanyu, but unexpectedly, Tao Yue'er was silent for a moment and then shook her head: "No need."

After Tao Yue'er finished speaking, she turned around and walked into the room. No one answered her. And her cold and indifferent appearance seemed to be a completely different person.

"Was she beaten stupid?" Bai Xiangjing couldn't help but ask Ji Hanyu.

They had known Tao Yue'er for many years, and it seemed that she always had a shameless and heartless smile on her face. She was gentle and flattering to everyone, and would not get angry with anyone. Why now...she seems to be a different person.

Not sad or sad, but a kind of anger... She seemed to be angry.

In the second half of the night, many guards were added to each house. They were from General Tunan's military camp. Each one was wearing armor, with their facial features buried in hard steel, and even their eyes could not be seen. It's like one statue after another, making people uncomfortable.

Since the murder occurred in Tao Yue'er's house, General Tunan personally took charge, and guards also stood outside Tao Yue'er's house. This made her feel particularly uncomfortable.

She wanted to see Shentu, but it seemed that as long as there were outsiders here, he would not show up.

Shentu is the person who has stayed here the longest, and he knows best what happened to Chen Qiubi. And Tao Yue'er had never doubted that Shentu would be the one who killed Chen Qiubi, because all his limbs were chopped off, and even if he had the intention, he didn't have the ability.

In fact, Tao Yue'er already knew who the murderer was, but Shentu seemed to be the only person she could communicate with and trust now, and she wanted to meet him.

"When will they leave?" Tao Yue'er asked General Tunan.

General Tunan asked back: "Do you feel bad that we are here to protect you?"

"Not good." Tao Yue'er replied resolutely.

"why?"

"Because I don't need anyone to protect me." Tao Yue'er was uncharacteristically uncharacteristic. She didn't have any of the weakness in the past. Her whole person exuded an extremely fierce aura, without anger or self-power.

Tunan was oppressed by Tao Yue'er's momentum for a moment, but quickly reacted.

She was just a mortal in the lower world, and he had no reason to be afraid of her.

"Sorry, I was ordered to stay and cannot leave."

"Whose order?" Tao Yue'er stared at him tightly without mercy.

"Of course..." Tunan wanted to say that he was ordered by the Immortal Master, but after thinking about it, the Immortal Master did not make it clear, so he could only say: "By the order of Chang Pei Diji."

"Chang Pei Diji has no right to interfere in the backyard. This is my room. Please leave." Tao Yue'er said coldly.

Tunan didn't expect that Tao Yue'er would still have the strength to quarrel with them after being beaten with a stick for thirty times, and he didn't expect that she would have such a tough temper. This time she was in trouble.

It was indeed his first time to enter the inner courtyard. In the inner courtyard, the owners of each house had the highest say. However, there was a murder in Tao Yue'er's house and it was so sensitive that he couldn't leave or stay for a while. no.

Just then, a scream pierced the night sky. In the darkness, the roars belonging to men made the silent night no longer peaceful.

"It's Chang Yu's house!" General Tunan reacted quickly and was the first to rush out.

"Don't move!" Just as Tao Yuer'er was about to walk out, Tunan stopped her.

"Keep an eye on her and don't let her run around. It's not peaceful tonight, I'm afraid it's not over yet." "I'm right under your nose. Could it be that I did something evil?"

"Who knows. At this time, please don't run around!"

The armored guards blocked Tao Yue'er's way. Tao Yue'er did not insist and simply retreated into the house and watched Tunan leave.

In the heavy snowfall, General Tunan's figure quickly disappeared into the snow.

Tao Yue'er returned to the courtyard, and the armored guards behind her followed her closely. Until she returned to her room, they still had no intention of leaving.

"Is it possible that you want to sleep in the same room with me?" Tao Yuer asked them.

One of the guards left quickly, but the other one stared at Tao Yue'er for a while, and then turned around and left after being pulled by another person.

There were no footsteps in the corridor. Thinking of it, they just stood guard at the door and did not leave.

The world outside the window was noisy all the time, and the sound of armored troops walking back and forth was non-stop. I guess something big happened in Chang Yu's house.

Thinking that she was too seriously injured during the day, Tao Yue'er still fell asleep in such a noisy environment. When she opened her eyes again, it was already noon the next day. The sun was shining high, and it was particularly dazzling against the backdrop of white snow. Even when she was in the house, she was so blinded by the sunlight outside the window that she couldn't open her eyes.

"What time is it?" Tao Yuer asked.

Soon, the armored guard's deep but emotionless voice came from outside the house: "It's noon."

"Is General Tunan back?" Tao Yue'er asked.

"Never."

Tunan went away all night and hasn't come back yet. It's hard to imagine what happened in Chang Yu's yard. But according to Tao Yue'er's guess, Chang Yu probably wouldn't die, or was injured at most.

Tao Yue'er's conjecture was finally proved in the evening. General Tunan brought this news back when he led people on an inspection tour. He told Tao Yue'er: "Chang Yu thought it was because of Chen Qiubi that he became vigilant. Although the two guards died, Chang Yu was just affected by it. The injury is nothing serious, just rest for a few days. Your houses have been heavily guarded in the past few days, so you should be able to rest assured tonight."

After hearing this, Tao Yue'er said calmly: "Don't worry, someone will die tonight."

Tao Yue'er's words were somewhat alarmist, and General Tunan sounded a little alarmed.

"Stop talking nonsense! There has been enough chaos these days, so don't add to it." General Tunan really didn't have a good look at this man who had been beaten thirty times by the Immortal Master.

She was an unpleasant servant boy who would never be favored by the Immortal Lord. She was a person destined to have no future, and her mouth was so poisonous. He wished he could throw her into the underworld right now! I don’t know where she got the confidence to be so arrogant.

Tunan rolled his eyes and left.

That night, the weather was calm and there was no sound. But Tao Yue'er felt that the quieter it was, the bigger the matter was.

Sure enough, early the next morning, the people who went to serve found Bai Xiangjing dead tragically in the house, and his death method was exactly the same as Chen Qiubi.

At this time, General Tunan had one head and three heads, and the first suspect that came to mind was Tao Yue'er.

"Say! Why do you say someone died last night?!"

I've been sick for a long time~ I'm sorry, dear kids, I will update to the end as soon as possible!
