Chapter 1522: How Did You Make the Body Decompose?
The fact that the autopsy showed the corpse as several months old suggested that someone had used means to turn the body this way.
“What did you use to make the body decompose?” The policeman pressed Ning Shu.
Ning Shu: …
Ning Shu had some regrets inwardly for not handling this matter properly. It allowed Song Ruoxi to have the opportunity to do such a thing before she died.
So in the future, she must deal the fatal blow properly, and it must be crisp and clean.
Ning Shu said, “I’m only a suspect, not a murderer. I didn’t kill Song Ruoxi. You’d better re-investigate and have enough evidence to charge me with murder.”
Ning Shu wanted to say that Song Ruoxi was a ghost, but who would believe it?
The police eventually let Ning Shu go, but she wasn’t allowed to leave the city and could be called in for questioning at any time.
Ning Shu walked out of the police station and saw Xie Yiyuan leaning against the car.
“Well? What did the police ask you?” asked Xie Yiyuan.
Ning Shu got in the car and said, “From what they said, they think I killed Song Ruoxi.”
Xie Yiyuan said, “It’s okay. The Xie Family will help you out.”
“You guys might not even be able to keep your company, yet you still have time for me. Thank you,” said Ning Shu indifferently.
Xie Yiyuan suddenly said to Ning Shu, “Why don’t we get married?”
Ning Shu: Nutjob.
“I’m going to be the head of Mt. Mao; how could possibly I marry you?” Ning Shu said in a dignified and cold manner, “You just want me to help you see which employee of the company has a ghost following them around, don’t you?”
Xie Yiyuan touched his nose, causing Ning Shu to roll her eyes.
“The incident genuinely scared me, but if you marry me, I’ll help you this time,” said Xie Yiyuan.
Ning Shu grinned. He was truly a businessman. All his calculations were so perfect.
“I’m a Daoist priest. How could a Daoist priest get married? I should properly do my job and catch ghosts. Why should I get married?” Ning Shu sneered.
Xie Yiyuan wanted to bind Tao Qin with this marriage so that she could become a protective talisman for free.
Not long ago, he still was lamenting. ‘Oh, I admired Song Ruoxi at first sight and fell in love at the second. Song Ruoxi is the woman I want to spend my life with.’
Now he wished to marry her. Ning Shu just wanted to give him a big slap.
He was slapping himself in the face with his actions, yet he felt no pain.
And it was so perfunctory. Using something like this as a trade, what a disguised form of coercion.
Ha. Ha. Ha…
When Ning Shu smiled eerily, Xie Yiyuan swallowed a mouthful of saliva and didn’t mention the marriage again.
Back at the villa, the old man immediately welcomed Ning Shu and comforted her. “It’s fine. Master will handle this.”
Ning Shu looked at the old man with some suspicion. The old man could handle it?
“What’s that look? Your master made many acquaintances when he was young and was often the guest of the powerful and influential.” The old man saw his disciple looking at him suspiciously and immediately said, “I made some calls. I’m sure this matter will be settled soon.”
“If that doesn’t work, there’s still this damned old man.” The old man pointed at Martial Uncle Ge and said, “This old guy knows a lot of people too.”
Martial Uncle Ge coughed.
“What are you coughing for? Do you still want the Phantom King Core? This is something that this girl worked very hard to get,” said the old man in a bad mood.
Martial Uncle Ge said calmly, “She’s my junior; how could I not save her? I’ve already contacted someone. We’ll have news in a short while.”
