Working part-time as a wife is too busy

Chapter 99: Bone Tracing (2)
At this time, the skeleton in Gu Xiaoya's hand had a rough shape, and it had turned into a simple prototype of a human face, and the softness of a woman's face could already be seen.

"This is a woman!" Unexpectedly, the clay of the clay sculpture could be used in such a way. Rong Yao also sat on the side watching curiously, marveling at Gu Xiaoya's ingenious technique.

"Well! Her eyes and nose need to be fine-tuned, and the eye sockets are a little deeper. I think this is a very beautiful woman." Although it is only a prototype now, the general appearance of the woman can already be seen. Just a little more adjustment in the details, the whole face will become clear.

Rong Yao didn't bother Gu Xiaoya any more, and sat quietly aside, while Gu Xiaoya looked at him and smiled slightly, continuing to focus on the unfinished product.

The night is getting darker, but the lights in the room are getting brighter and brighter. It is so quiet that even the wind is not willing to disturb it, until a woman chuckled and said: "Okay, it's her!"

Seeing the satisfied and confident smile on Gu Xiaoya's face, Rong Yao's face was also full of smiles instantly, but when he turned to the head that had fully revealed its original face, the smile on his face slowly disappeared.

Gu Xiaoya also noticed Rong Yao's strange expression, pointing at the fully recovered woman's head in puzzlement, she looked at him and asked, "Do you know her?"

Rong Yao shook his head slightly, but there was still doubt in his eyes. He glanced at the woman's face again and said, "I don't know this woman, but I feel very familiar, as if I have seen it somewhere. However, there are some Different, this one is too young."

The woman who recovered her original appearance looked only fifteen or sixteen years old, and she had a beautiful face. Rong Yao spent most of his time in the military camp, and there were not many women who could impress him.

"What do you mean by that? Could it be that the people you have met are very old, but they are somewhat similar to this woman, maybe they are mother and daughter?" Gu Xiaoya reminded.

Now that the woman's appearance has been restored, all that remains is to use this appearance to determine her identity. If Rong Yao has seen a similar appearance, it means that there is a clue. The woman was killed by someone.

"I'm not sure yet. In this way, I will draw this woman's appearance and ask my people to check it for you!" Rong Yao was about to get up to draw it with a pen and paper, but was stopped by Gu Xiaoya .

"Let me draw!" Gu Xiaoya found out the charcoal sticks and paper she had asked Xuemei to keep, and then began to draw carefully one stroke at a time, while Rong Yao stood behind her, watching her draw a few strokes The woman's appearance was roughly drawn, and then after a few strokes, the woman's face appeared vividly on the paper, as if it had been rubbed out.

Gu Xiaoya drew several pictures in a row, gave Rong Yao two pictures, and she planned to hand over the other few pictures to Leng Yan tomorrow for investigation.At this time, the sky was almost dawn, and the two people who hadn't closed their eyes all night didn't feel tired at all.

"Ya'er, I'll let someone hand over these things to Leng Yan. You wash up first, then go to bed and rest. I promise to find out who this woman is as soon as possible." Although Gu Xiaoya's spirit is not bad, the circles under her eyes It was dark and looked haggard.

"Okay, then I'll leave it to you." At present, what I have to do has been done, and the rest is up to Rong Yao and Yan Yan, but when she turned around, Gu Xiaoya remembered another thing. When the portrait was about to leave, she called to him again and said, "Rong Yao, wait a minute, I still need your help with something."

"What, you say?" Rong Yao wished that Gu Xiaoya would think of looking for him whenever she had something to do, which meant that Gu Xiaoya, who was very capable, had already learned to rely on him.

Gu Xiaoya turned around and walked to her dressing table, and then took out a letter from a hidden compartment, which was the evidence that Leng Yan handed her that day about the murder of her parents.

She handed the letter to Rong Yao, and said to him with a kind of trust that she had never had before: "This is a handwritten letter from the murderer who wanted to kill my parents back then. It just takes some time to come out, but now I don't want to waste time, can you help me find out who wrote this letter?"

Rong Yao took the letter, looked at her and said firmly: "Leave this matter to me, and I will give you an answer as soon as possible."

"Thank you!" Gu Xiaoya looked at him and smiled.

Unexpectedly, Rong Yao suddenly lowered his head and kissed her cheek quickly. Seeing that Gu Xiaoya was only slightly surprised but not disgusted, he explained with a smile: "I said that if you say 'thank you' to me again in the future, I will definitely I will punish you. However, it’s okay if you say it a few more times.”

Seeing the evil smile on Rong Yao's face, Gu Xiaoya felt her face burning up. In the past, when she couldn't see her feelings for Rong Yao clearly, she would be misled by some wrong information, and it was difficult to accept his kind of Meng Lang's behavior, but now She already planned to try to accept him, just like a young girl in love, her face blushed according to her body's instinct.

Rong Yao thought that he would never have the opportunity to see this kind of "shyness" from Gu Xiaoya's face in his life. It turns out that no matter how strong a woman is, she also has a gentle and shy side of a little woman. It just depends on whether she is willing to be in front of you. It's just a show, so does her current performance mean that she treats herself differently?

Rong Yao, who had no experience in love at all, was at a loss and didn't know what to do. He even became a little shy, and covered up his embarrassment with a "cough", and said "I'll go to work first", and walked quickly like running away left.

Seeing the back of Rong Yao leaving in embarrassment, Gu Xiaoya suddenly smiled, and this smile was even more coquettish, stunned Xuemei and Qingxin who came to bring her water, both of them were confused. Thinking about it, it seems that although the things they thought didn't happen that night, the relationship between Gu Xiaoya and Rong Yao seems to be more intimate and ambiguous.

Soon Leng Yan received a portrait sent by someone from Rong Yao, and then he picked up the portrait and went to Mingxu Palace first. After all, this unknown woman's skeleton was found in the Ziwei Garden of Mingxu Palace.

Because of the two incidents of homicide and the discovery of the dead body in Ziwei Garden, Princess Mingxu was called to the front of the palace by the old prince and Prince Mingxu as soon as she returned to the palace to inquire carefully about what happened.

Princess Mingxu told the two of them without any concealment about everything that happened in Ziwei Garden, including Leng Yan, Gu Xiaoya, the details of on-the-spot autopsy, investigation, and settlement. Although the murder had nothing to do with Mingxu Palace, it happened in Ziwei Garden after all In the garden, the old prince always felt that things were not that simple.
