The decent boss always wants to attack me

"what?"

Bai Qing was stunned, there was nothing but a piece of pink and green lotus leaves in the middle of the lake.

Chu Xiu pulled him and walked a few steps forward, pointing to a certain place in the lake: "That, the white one."

The young master squinted his eyes and took a closer look, and there seemed to be a white thing floating in the green lotus leaves, like a belt, or...

Bai Qing's eyes widened, it was a person.

He took a few steps forward quickly, ready to take off his clothes and jump into the lake to catch people, but the young man held him down and said, "I'll do it."

Chu Xiu stepped on the water and flew to the middle of the lake.

At this time, he didn't pay too much attention to these details, he was all about what happened to that person and whether he was still alive.

Although he knew very well in his heart that he hadn't heard anything for so long, and suddenly surfaced, the hope was slim.

When Chu Xiu brought him ashore, Bai Qing hurried over to have a look, but was suddenly dragged aside by the young man: "Don't look."

No one saw it, but he still vomited.

The strong rotten smell rushed into his nostrils. For a moment, he felt that his whole body was filled with this smell. The smell of corpses forced out all the things in the five internal organs temple that he sacrificed at noon.

I vomited until there was only bile left, and it was extremely painful.

Bai Qing, who was born in a peaceful age, had never seen a rotting corpse so close.

This taste, he will never forget.

He supported his knees with one hand, and when he had vomited enough, he took out a silk handkerchief to wipe his lips, and was extremely persistent in going to have a look.

Chu Xiu grabbed him and was also very persistent: "Don't look, the person has been dead for several days, and the body is so swollen that the five sense organs can't be seen clearly."

Bai Qing murmured: "I've been dead for several days..."

He glanced at the corpse from the corner of his eyes, and he could vaguely tell that it was a woman from the attire.

Chu Xiu looked at the sad eyes of the young master and hesitated for a moment.

He pursed his thin lips into a straight line, lowered his eyes and glanced at the woman again, and said in a deep voice, "Her cuffs are tattooed with plum blossoms."

Bai Qing raised his head suddenly, with an unpredictable expression on his face, he covered his nose and walked quickly to the female corpse to check her clothes carefully.

Chu Xiu couldn't help but said, "You...don't look at her face."

The young master didn't want to look at it either, but he couldn't help sweeping the face of the female corpse with his eyes. He didn't see the whole picture, but saw the long tongue with blood froth hanging limply on his chin.

His breathing stagnated, and the half of the air he sucked in seemed to be exhaled from her mouth.

Stinking, rotten, filthy, and sad.

Bai Qing covered his mouth and crouched to one side, and vomited again.

Nian Zimei is the family crest of the Baifu, and she is indeed from the Baifu.

Chu Xiu helped him up, and said in a low voice, "Go back first."

Bai Qing's bewildered young man dragged him back to the White Mansion, his mind was full of the long tongue full of foam and the upper lip turned upside down, it was only the lower half of his face, and he could not be seen as a person at all. Ferocious and terrible.

What a girl, how did she become like this.

"Twister plum..."

Recently, which maidservant has been missing in the White Mansion?

It was clearly summer, but he felt cold.

The boundless chill rushed towards him, Bai Qing seemed to be placed in a cold pool of ice cave, his hands and feet were cold, and his eyes seemed to be frozen by the cold, freezing and freezing.

The cold and moisture covered his limbs and bones, and the soft and overgrown seaweed wrapped around his heart bit by bit.

"Miss Cui'er has an accident at home. I'm afraid I won't be able to come back soon."

"Both parents are dead, I heard that they died of illness."

No, it can't be that coincidental.

Chu Xiu pulled his hand with a slight effort to draw the man's mind back.

He has been out of shape since the beginning, and his face has no color. I don't know if he was frightened by the female corpse or thought of something.

Bai Qing's reaction was beyond his expectation.

The man calmed down and showed Chu Xiu a comforting smile, the smile did not reach the bottom of the eyes, and did not show dimples.

It was far-fetched, and Chu Xiu didn't like it.

"arrive."

Young Master Bai didn't go in right away. He stood at the door and took several deep breaths. He didn't step into the door until the breath around him was completely settled and condensed into ice.

"Master, you are back."

Bai Qing ignored the servant girls who were saluting to him, and his voice was so cold that ice shards could fall out: "Call everyone to Jiwutang."

The housekeeper obviously didn't understand what he meant, and he said in a daze, "Young master, you want to..."

Bai squinted at him, and a cold sweat broke out on the housekeeper's back. He was about to deal with it carelessly, when he heard him repeat in a deep voice: "Yes, so, yes, people."

......

Within a moment, Ji Wutang was already full of people, unexpectedly, even Cheng Boru also came.

He looked up at the dark clouds in the sky, and another rainstorm was coming.

Bai Qing raised his eyebrows, picked out a few familiar ones from the black crowd, and asked them to bring back the female corpse by the lake first.

"I called you here today for no other reason. A female corpse was found in the lake next to the Wulai Pavilion. There was a family pattern on her clothes. This corpse..."

He pondered for a moment in the middle of speaking, then turned his head and asked Chu Xiu in a low voice, "How many days?"

The boy leaned into his ear: "At least three days."

He raised his head and continued: "The body has sunk in the lake for at least three days. Now I want to know the personnel changes in the mansion and the whereabouts of those who left the mansion."

As soon as these words came out, Cheng Boru, who was standing beside him, was a little shaken, she said softly: "Qing'er, just leave these trivial matters to the housekeeper, and you don't have to be so laborious."

The servants all bowed their heads, all in a daze.

"It's not a trivial matter, it's a maid in my house."

is a living person.

He didn't look sideways: "Mother, if one day I sink into the lake and the body is found a few days later, will you say it's a trivial matter?"

Cheng Boru was so choked that he couldn't speak, he wanted to say a few words at first, but thought that he was going to Qiwumen soon, such a move would be beneficial to him, so he retreated and silenced.

Only Chu Xiu saw him seriously with piercing eyes.

"Old Li, the roster."

"Yes, sir."

You only need to check the list for nearly half a month, but you don't know who will be involved, so Bai Qing is standing here.If this matter is really investigated by other people in the mansion, he can already predict the sloppy ending.

Those who had nothing to do with this matter were dismissed by him, but most of them refused to leave, whether they were watching the excitement or really caring about the whole story, he didn't want to interfere too much.

Lao Li counted for a long time, his complexion became more and more strange, his bronze skin was wrinkled together, and he looked full of anxiety.

"Master, the summer month is the month of the month, and there are no servants to ask for leave, except for a few servants who left the mansion and didn't see them back, and then there is only Miss Tweety."

Bai Qing didn't speak, no one dared to say anything, they all quietly looked at the young master.

He was silent for a moment, then spoke again: "When did the servant leave the mansion?"

Old Li tremblingly said: "Go back to Master, five days ago."

.......

"Send me the detailed records about those servants, and ask the officer to examine the corpse. The more detailed the better."

He raised his eyelids and glanced at the crowd, and said a little tiredly, "It's all gone."

"Qing'er, your complexion is not very good, go back and rest first, as for the maids, I will find some smart ones for you, don't worry too much."

Bai Qing couldn't say anything when he saw Mrs. Cheng's worried expression. He had seen Cheng Puru's methods before, but it didn't mean he could be indifferent to the care of the original owner's mother, even though he didn't need such care.

He is not a saint and cannot change their thinking. The relationship between master and servant is deeply rooted in the eyes of people in this world.

He thanked and saluted with a distant but polite tone, and then went back to the house.

At this time, Bai Qing suddenly wanted to smoke.

He has no addiction to cigarettes, and he only lights one when he is in a bad mood. When he inhales the gas mixed with tar and nicotine into his lungs, he can often be quite quiet.

He casually tore off a pennisetum stalk and held it in his mouth. He had almost tore all the grass stalks outside the house these days.

The slender grass stalks were stamped with tooth marks one after another, and he chewed hard, as if venting his anger.

Chu Xiu sat beside him silently.

"Bai Qing..."

The eldest young master held the grass stalk in his mouth and looked at him with his hands behind his back, his eyes half downcast, his usually indifferent expression turned into radiant and sullen, inexplicably a bit gangster.

"how?"

The boy looked directly at him, and his tone was not as blunt as usual: "Don't think about it."

Bai Qing threw the grass stalk out, and fell on his back on the coral blanket with his hands as pillows: "I know it's Tweety."

"But she shouldn't be there. She's from Zhongzhou. When you go back, you should go out of Baifu and walk southwest, instead of appearing in Senhu, which is due north."

He stared straight at the beam, and murmured: "Tweety is not yet an adult, but a little girl in her teens, her life has just begun..."

Chu Xiu listened quietly to the young master's murmur, like a lucky baby, sitting obediently on the spot.

Bai Qing stopped talking, he stretched out his hand, his five fingers showed traces of crimson in the dark room, as if blood had gathered to the fingertips.

Suddenly there was a sound of footsteps outside the door.

Chu Xiu raised his head, and then disappeared into the room with a movement. When he came back, he had a few blue booklets with yellowing paper in his hand.

The eldest young master's face turned serious, and he sat up from the blanket with a force on his waist: "Bring it to me to have a look."

The blue booklet was quite old, and he flipped through a few pages, all of which were information on the origins of those people who left the mansion but did not return.There are several pieces of high-quality rice paper in the booklet, the ink stains are very fresh, it should be autopsy information.

The personal items recovered from the corpse clearly showed that the deceased was Tweety, and the time of death was about five days ago.

Bai Qing, who had already given himself a psychological hint, still had difficulty breathing when he saw the black and white words.

It's not just Tweety's death, but the last time those servants appeared was to transport Yexiang out of the mansion.

five days ago.

Yexiang car.

Bai Qing closed his eyes, he remembered the three men in cloth shirts, and he also remembered the half-person-high black wood carved Yexiang chariot.

There were severe strangulation marks on the neck and limbs of the corpse. The final cause of death was suffocation.

This is probably, kill first and then rape.

The torrential rain was pouring down, hitting the roof like hailstones.
