Detective Ghost Empress-Chapter 445: I know who killed her ——1

" You are back?" Jia Li glanced at Xiao Lin who was looking like a withered rose and could not help but ask in a curious voice as she looked at her charred hair and the clothes which Xiao Lin was wearing. " Was the shock enough to wake you up? Or do you need another one?"

Xiao Lin looked at Jia Li with a sullen look on her face and then asked with an aggrieved voice, " If you knew then why did you not tell me this earlier? It hurts so bad, I thought that I was dying all over again."

" Is that so? I forgot that it hurts that bad," was all Jia Li said as she spoke about the pain which Xiao Lin went through which caused Xiao Lin's mouth to drop in surprise as she looked at Jia Li with disbelief written on her face as she raised her hand and then pointed at the latter before saying, " You…you deliberately…"

Jia Li smiled and then patted Xiao Lin on the back as she said with a jolly voice, " I once ran away from Liu Hui Ying as well when she stopped me from going to see the movie of my favourite actor. I received a shock as well, it was really humiliating to the max, I tell you."

" So you…." Xiao Lin was quaking with anger as she realised that the reason Jia Li let go of her was not that she was being caring like a senior towards her but instead, she did it because she wanted someone to fall in the same pit as her! Shameless!

" Welcome to the group!" Jia Li hugged Xiao Lin by her shoulders but before the latter could say anything they were interrupted by Li Gang who glared at them and then said,

" A little help here? I am the only one who is digging this grave!" He pointed to the pit in which he was standing while glaring at the two women with sharp daggers in his eyes.

" I am digging as well," Zhai Tianyu interrupted as he looked at the ghost man who turned to look at him with a sullen look on his face as he said, "Your majesty, the kind of digging you are doing… will take years for to dig to the bottom of this grave! You better not touch anything!" Li Gang furiously snapped at Zhai Tianyu as he looked at the shiny robe which Zhai Tianyu was wearing.

For the sake of not dirtying the robe the latter was not even digging properly making Li Gang do all the digging, how can they dig his grave before morning like that?

" I cannot dirty this honourable robe," seeing that the latter was looking at the robe which he was wearing Zhai Tianyu tried to explain it but that only made Li Gang annoyed as the latter snarled and said, " Which is why I am saying not to dig! Get out! You are wasting my time, even Hui Ying will not be as girly as you."

As he spoke he turned to look at Liu Hui Ying who sighed and then said, " Fine, I will do it." Even she was in a hurry since they needed to go back to the hunting grounds lest someone doubts what they were doing.

Liu Hui Ying stretched out her hands as she held them in front of Zhai Tianyu and said, " Your esteemed majesty, I think that you are feeling a bit queasy because of this odd job of digging a grave, why don't you step aside?" That way she will be able to do a better job.

" How can I let you do that, your majesty?" Zhai Tianyu felt awkward when he heard his wife say that she will dig the grave. Though he was indeed feeling a bit queasy thinking that there was another body buried under this grave which was marked for a dead rabbit.

In fact, he felt a bit squeamish when he saw the rotting corpse of the rabbit but Liu Hui Ying who was standing behind him easily placed the rabbit to the side making him question his manliness all over again. fгeewebnovёl.com

" You stay behind, my queen… I will do it," as he spoke Zhai Tianyu took off his robe which was embroidered with dragon and handed it to Liu Hui Ying before requesting in a polite voice, " Please keep it untainted, this robe is a representation of my image."

Though Liu Hui Ying thought that it was too much of a bother but when she saw that it mattered a bit too much for Zhai Tianyu she agreed silently before taking the robe from his hands.

Only then did Zhai Tinayu roll his sleeves and started to dig the ground with renewed energy.

This time Li Gang and Zhai Tianyu did a much better job as they soon dug more than eight feet before Li Gang's hoe which he was holding in his hands with the help of Liu Hui Ying's spiritual energy smashed against something hard and turned to look at Liu Hui Ying who was standing on top of the pit which they have dug and said, " There is a coffin under here."

" Wipe the dirt off the coffin," said Liu Hui Ying as she looked at the surface which was flatter than the ones which were surrounding it.

Zhai Tianyu was not used to doing something like this but he still crouched down after Li Gang and wiped the dust off the coffin however just as they cleaned the surface of the coffin, they were stopped by Liu Hui Ying.

" Leave it …." Her voice was solemn as she looked at the coffin which was covered with talismans, these talismans were different from the ones which Liu Hui Ying used, instead they were white in colour with red inscriptions written on them, Zhai Tianyu did not understand what was written on them but then he heard Liu Hui Ying say, " This is the coffin of a woman who was killed by a man ….forcefully."

Though she did not say anything more Zhai Tianyu understood what she was saying and unconsciously took a step away from the coffin when he realised what the poor woman went through when she was alive.

" Leave her alone," Liu Hui Ying's voice was sympathetic as she whipped out a talisman which morphed into the white flower she handed to Liu Fei Fei and Zhai Tianyu's aunt before throwing it on the coffin. " Leave her at peace since she could not when she was alive …. As for who is behind the killings, I have an idea."
