Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Chu Qingzhi pointed out a point in Second Master Tan’s words. “You just said that Old Master Tan is biased towards his eldest son and doesn’t value his third son as much?”

A hint of sadness flashed across Second Master Tan’s eyes before he returned to his flirtatious self. “Yes, my father only likes Eldest Brother. He doesn’t like Third Brother and I very much.”

Chu Qingzhi glanced at Second Master Tan and walked out of the house to the room where the constable was asking questions.

Chu Xujin and Tao Yizhou stood at the side and listened to the constable’s interrogation seriously. Their attitude towards learning was not bad.

She took a look and went to the mortuary. She planned to see Tan Maozhi’s corpse again.

There was only the coroner and his disciple in the mortuary. They looked very depressed. In all their years as coroners, they had never seen such a strange death.

Chu Qingzhi walked forward and said politely, “Sir, did you find any clues?”

The coroner was an old man in his fifties. He had been a coroner all his life and was very experienced. However, at this moment, he frowned. “It’s not a good place to be. Miss, you should go out and wait for news.”

Chu Qingzhi said calmly, “It’s fine. I don’t mind.”

The coroner glanced at Chu Qingzhi. “Miss, your medical skills are brilliant. Did you find anything strange?”

“Before Tan Maozhi died, he lit fleeceflower stems. His body has been exposed to Red Soft Jade for a long time…” Chu Qingzhi took out a rouge box and handed it to the coroner. “This is Red Soft Jade. Sir, take a look.”

The coroner dipped his finger into Red Soft Jade and sniffed it. “Have you lit it?”

Chu Qingzhi was stunned. That’s right. Substances would change forms after they were burned. She forgot about this. “I’ll light it now.”

After the Red Soft Jade was lit, wisps of smoke came out. She fanned it with her hand to smell it.

The fragrance was sweet but not greasy. It could speed up the blood flow and make people excited. It was a good incense.

This fragrance was confirmed to be fine, but Chu Qingzhi’s brows did not relax.

Nothing was wrong, but the mystery had not been solved. This meant that there was something that she didn’t notice. contemporary romance

Chu Qingzhi said to the coroner, “Sir, I’m sure there’s no problem with the incense.”

The coroner nodded, his expression unchanged. “Miss, please excuse me. I’m going to cut open Tan Maozhi’s stomach and see his organs.”

Chu Qingzhi also wanted to take a look, so she said, “Sir, just do the autopsy. Don’t worry about me.”

The coroner’s expression finally changed. He looked up at Chu Qingzhi. “The scene is going to be very bloody. Aren’t you afraid?”

Chu Qingzhi waved her hand. “I’m not afraid. Do it.”

How could she be afraid? The last thing she was afraid of was corpses. Only by turning into a corpse would people stop harming others.

Chu Qingzhi hugged her arms and watched with interest…

During the process, the little disciple stole glances at Chu Qingzhi a few times. Why was she so calm? Was she really a girl? Was this what his master meant by one should not judge a book by its cover?

As the organs were removed one by one, the little disciple couldn’t endure it anymore. He ran out and started vomiting.

Chu Qingzhi still had a natural and calm expression.

The coroner and his disciple were speechless.

Suddenly, Chu Qingzhi pointed at Tan Maozhi’s fist-sized heart and frowned. “His heart has shrunk.”

A trace of surprise flashed across the coroner’s eyes. This heart was indeed too small. “Indeed, with Tan Maozhi’s height and weight, his heart should be twice as big as this.”

Chu Qingzhi thought about it and said slowly, “The blood flow in the body is suppressed and slowed down for a long time, which is why the heart shrunk…”

Chu Qingzhi took the silver needle from the coroner and inserted it into Tan Maozhi’s heart. The silver needle turned brown. “It’s poisonous!”

She took a few more silver needles and inserted them into other organs. The silver needles did not change color.

Chu Qingzhi felt that her knowledge had been challenged. There was no poison in other organs except the heart. Why?

The way he died was really too bizarre!

Chu Qingzhi asked humbly, “Sir, have you seen this phenomenon in the past?”

The coroner shook his head slowly. “This is the first time I’ve seen this. It’s really eye-opening.”

Sigh-

Chu Qingzhi sighed in her heart and left the mortuary, walking towards the interrogation room. She could go home for dinner after asking Third Master Tan.

When she arrived at the interrogation room, Chu Qingzhi whispered to the head constable, “Go and investigate Red Crane’s background? Also, how did she end up becoming a servant girl in the Tan family.”

The head constable cupped his hands. “Yes.”

Third Master Tan was already sitting on the chair. He was thin and tall, and his expression was dejected. He looked like the kind of person who was locked in a dark room for a long time and did not see the light of day. He was exuding gloom.

Chu Qingzhi sent a small ball of light into Third Master Tan’s body and asked, “Do you hate Tan Ming very much?”

Third Master Tan’s expression immediately twisted. He gritted his teeth and said, “I don’t just hate him. I wanted him dead.”

Chu Qingzhi asked, “Why do you hate him?”

Third Master Tan’s eyes were red with anger, as if he had suffered a great humiliation. “Not only did he snatch the woman I love, but he also stole my father’s love. Shouldn’t 1 hate him?”

Chu Qingzhi said calmly, “So you killed him!”

Third Master Tan seemed to have heard a joke and laughed out loud. Then, he asked gloomily, “Why would I kill Eldest Brother?”

Chu Qingzhi’s tone was very oppressive. “Do you know who killed him?”

Third Master Tan said like a lunatic, “I know!”

Chu Qingzhi asked in a heavier tone, “Who?”

Third Master Tan struggled in his heart. Suddenly, his eyes widened and he said, “My mother! You didn’t expect this, did you?!”

Chu Qingzhi was stunned.

The Tan family was really a mess!!!

She frowned. “Why did your mother kill Tan Ming?”

Third Master Tan said in a mad tone, “Tan Ming was the child of my father and my aunt. My father was so despicable. At that time, my mother and my aunt gave birth on the same day. In the end, my real eldest brother died when he was born. Not only was my father not sad, he even brought my aunt’s child back to replace my real eldest brother.”

“When my mother found out the truth, in order to take revenge on my father, she killed Tan Ming. She killed him.. Hahaha!!!”
