"Being tortured to death?"

Mu Jingchen felt strange, and asked again: "Who did it?"

The people under him shook their heads again.

"It's not clear. When Cheng Cui's body was found, there was no one else around, so we don't know who did it."

Regarding this, Shao Ming speculated: "Could it be that Cheng Cui offended too many people in the town, and that's why he was murdered?"

Mu Jingchen had no interest in the cause of her death and did not continue the topic.

"Does Officer Meng know about this?"

"Officer Meng's people have already brought the body back."

"Then don't worry about it, he will take care of the rest."

Cheng Cui's death was beyond his expectation, but it still calmed down the anger in his heart, but he couldn't solve her venting anger for Liyue with his own hands, which is always a bit regrettable.

Now he is all focused on Liyue, he doesn't want to pay attention to these irrelevant people at all, he just asked a few casually, and then went back to the room to rest.

Huangfu Liyue slept through the night, and when she woke up the next day she felt much better, and her head was no longer so groggy.

She still has no memory of what happened when she suddenly fainted yesterday, and she can't even remember anything.

Just in case, the first thing she did after waking up was to feel her own pulse.

After confirming that there is nothing wrong with the body and the baby in the stomach is safe, I feel relieved.

After getting up and getting dressed, she went to the window to get some air, but saw several people gathered in the street downstairs.

As they walked forward, they were still discussing something enthusiastically.

One of them had a loud voice, so she could hear it clearly from upstairs.

"I heard that Cheng Cui was found last night, in the temple to the west of our town."

"Really? This conscientious woman has finally been arrested. Ever since I found out that she was the culprit of the disappearance case, I have raised my heart. I am afraid that she will come back to the town and cause harm to others. Now it's all right. Finally, I don't have to worry about it." gone."

"Who isn't? Ever since I knew she did those things, I feel terrified when I pass this hotel now!"

Listening to the discussion of several people, Huangfu Liyue immediately opened the door and asked the two people who were waiting at the door for confirmation.

"Has Cheng Cui been caught yet?"

Just as the two were about to answer, Mu Jingchen walked over and replied, "That's right, I've already caught it, just last night."

She breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "I've finally been caught. I've been worried for the past few days, fearing that she would escape from the ancient town and harm others."

Mu Jingchen put his palm on her shoulder and patted her twice.

"Relax, she's dead, and she can't harm others anymore."

"She's dead?"

When she heard the news of Cheng Cui's death, she was slightly surprised, and then asked, "How did you die?"

Mu Jingchen shook his head and said, "I'm not sure, when someone finds her, she's already a corpse."

She felt very strange about this.

"It's fine, how could she just die like this?"

"More than that, I heard that the death is horrific, and he should have been abused before his death."

Listening to his description, she became even more curious.

Just as he was about to say something, Shao Ming rushed to report: "Boss, madam, the people we sent to arrest Cheng Cui have returned, and they have brought back Cheng Cui's son and daughter-in-law."

After hearing this, Mu Jingchen and Huangfu Liyue looked downstairs.

Tian Jingui and Wu Guixiang stood there stiffly, their eyes full of uneasiness and panic.

Both of them were ashamed, and one could tell at a glance that they must have suffered a lot in the past few days.

Mu Jingchen and Huangfu Liyue came downstairs.

Seeing them in such a panic, Huangfu Liyue asked, "Have you been in that cave all these days?"

Tian Jingui looked at her timidly, without answering.

Wu Guixiang got acquainted with her somewhat, nodded and replied: "Yes, we have been inside all the time, but the dry food has been eaten these two days, and I was really hungry, so I went out with Jingui to find something to eat, unexpectedly I met them and was brought back."

As she spoke, she looked at Mu Jingchen's subordinates.

Mu Jingchen's subordinates confirmed: "When we found them, they were digging wild vegetables not far from the cave exit to satisfy their hunger, so we brought them back directly."

Speaking of this, Wu Guixiang swallowed dryly, and asked cautiously: "Girl, we haven't eaten for two days, is there anything to give us a cushion?"

Huangfu Liyue said to Shao Ming: "Go get them something to eat."

Shao Ming didn't move his feet, and his expression was extremely reluctant.

"Ma'am, they are Cheng Cui's son and daughter-in-law. Cheng Cui almost killed you before, do you still want to feed them?"

"One size fits all, they didn't hurt me."

Huangfu Liyue had clear grievances and grudges, so Shao Ming couldn't say anything more, so he ordered someone to bring some leftovers.

Tian Jingui and the two were extremely hungry, and the moment they saw the food, they didn't care about the food, and stuffed the food into their mouths hungrily.

Huangfu Liyue was not in a hurry, she sat on the sidelines and waited until they finished eating, before asking: "Guixiang, have you seen your mother-in-law since we parted that day?"

"No."

Thinking of the situation that day, Wu Guixiang felt lingering fear: "After Jingui took me away that day, my mother-in-law never showed up again, and the two of us didn't dare to walk around in that cave. Don’t dare to come out of that cave.”

After finishing speaking, she looked Huangfu Liyue up and down, and said in astonishment: "Girl, I was still worried about you after I left that day. I didn't expect you to escape from my mother-in-law and stand here safely."

Huangfu Liyue smiled slightly.

"Speaking of which, I have to thank you for being safe. If you hadn't helped me delay that day, I might not have been killed by your mother-in-law, and I would have died of poison."

Wu Guixiang smiled embarrassedly: "I actually didn't help you much."

While the two were talking, a group of men in uniform walked in.

The leading man said very politely: "Mr. Mu, Mrs. Mu, excuse me. Officer Meng heard that Cheng Cui's family members have been found, so he specially sent me to arrest them."

Hearing this, Wu Guixiang hurriedly hid behind Huangfu Liyue: "Girl, help me, you know, those things were done by my mother-in-law, I have never harmed anyone."

Huangfu Liyue testified for her: "This police officer, although she is Cheng Cui's daughter-in-law, did not take part in this incident, and she helped me escape in times of crisis, so please help me convey this to Police Officer Meng. .”

The man hesitated.

After hesitating for a moment, he said: "Mrs. Mu, this matter involves many lives. The circumstances are serious and the matter is of great importance. She is also a relative closely related to Cheng Cui. If you want to vouch for her, please come back with me." Let’s go and explain to Police Officer Meng in person.”

Before Huangfu Liyue could reply, Wu Guixiang held her hand tightly.

"Girl, help me, I didn't harm anyone, I don't want to go to jail..."
