Zombie girl reborn

Chapter 28 Spy on My Tools
When they returned to the county magistrate's mansion, it was pitch black and everyone had already fallen asleep.

After Fuyu sent me back to my room, she also went back to her own room.

After staying in the well for so long, my clothes are still wet, but the strange thing is that I don't feel cold at all.

This feeling seems to have been there since Fuyu brought me out of the well, and I didn't feel cold during the journey just now.

It wasn't until I took off all the wet clothes that I discovered the reason.

The jade pendant on the chest lit up at some point, and it shone red like a flame in the night. I remember that this fire-shaped jade pendant has the effect of warming and nourishing the body, so I would not feel cold.

It was the first time I saw this thing glowing. I couldn't help but hold it gently. It was indeed very warm, as if exuding human body temperature.

Suddenly, he inexplicably remembered the body temperature of Fuyu, which seemed to be taken from him.

Speaking of which, this thing belongs to him, and it's normal to have a body temperature similar to his, but when I think it's his thing, I always have the urge to throw it away.

In order to monitor me, he used to hang a dog chain around my neck. I didn’t know it at first, but I thought it was a treasure.

It turned out later that this was just a tool he used to monitor me. My every move was in his eyes, and he might see me as a drama every day.

I don't know if this jade pendant has the effect of this kind of monitoring. If there is, I will crush it into fine pieces immediately.

My hands were constantly tightening, and when the hatred was in my heart, sister's words suddenly rang in my ears. "This jade pendant has been with me for many years, and I think it has spirituality, so let it guard you by my side!"

By the way, this thing was given to me by my elder sister, so I just ruined it, wouldn't it be a waste of her efforts.

I hurriedly stopped, put it back on my chest, and hid it under my clothes.

Since he kept this thing, he had to be more careful in the future, not to show any cheating feet, so as not to die in the hands of the monk, but to die in his hands again.

***
The next day, just after dawn, we set off to Zhang Butcher's house to open the coffin.

On the way, I told them everything about last night. Of course, I mentioned the part about Fuyu, and only said that he appeared and saved me.

Gongsun Yun kept a cold face as usual, and blamed me for making my own decisions. What I did was really wrong, so I didn't refute, just obediently listened to his reprimand and responded well.

But Xu Qingyuan didn't sneer anymore, he took my pulse seriously, and reminded me not to mess around in the future after it was all right.

Because I set a trap for that person yesterday, after we discussed it, we sent someone to the inn to see if the mistress or other helpers were there.

On this side, we still acted according to the original plan and opened the tombs of Zhang Tu, his wife and their children.

Xu Qingyuan carefully inspected the two corpses. They were consistent with Zhang Tufu's wife and son in all aspects. One was a 37-year-old woman and the other was a 15-year-old boy.

Only bones remained of the two corpses, so other details were also difficult to identify. Judging from this, there was nothing wrong with the two corpses, and nothing could be found.

I heard that the people who investigated the case before also considered this clue, but they ruled out this possibility after reading the records of Wu's work. After all, how can a dead person kill someone, and he didn't become a ghost.

The clues are broken here. Although the man came here yesterday, he did not leave any evidence. If we can't prove his relationship with Zhang Butcher's family, we have no reason to arrest him for inspection.

When everyone was at a loss, Xu Qingyuan, who had been fiddling around for a long time, suddenly said, "We guessed right, this male corpse is not Zhang Butcher's son!"
