2153 A strange place
Xinxin, I’ll go get my toolbox! Zheng Qiu went to get his things after saying that.
The accommodation for them had just been arranged. Zheng Qiu had checked the items for the Prince of Dong Lin and placed them in the living quarters.
Because Gu Xin was speaking in the main hall, the two of them didn’t live too far away from each other.
“Is the state of death very terrifying?” Gu Xin asked as she realized that he gang’s expression was a little off.
Previously, in the case of the Wang family Village’s extermination, the way the Wang family’s female members died was also somewhat terrifying. However, at that time, he gang had been quite normal. Now, with this expression, it was likely that the way they died was somewhat terrifying.
“There are some. I wasn’t frightened by the state of death, I was just shocked by the murderer!” He gang said.
Zheng Qiu soon arrived with his luggage. Seeing this, Gu Xin called he gang over to talk to him as they walked.
“The kitchen sent some food to master Bai’s courtyard. Not long after he entered, he heard grandmother Bai’s scream. I happened to be there, and when I went in, I saw young master Bai lying on the bed in a strange posture. Madam Bai had fainted from fear. I went forward to check, and young master Bai was no longer breathing. This subordinate rushed over to find third miss. On the way back, I was thinking that after returning from the mourning hall, there were only the family of three in master Bai’s courtyard, plus a nanny, four maidservants, and an errand boy. No one had entered or left the courtyard since the afternoon. However, the way master Bai had died was obviously not something he could have done. He had definitely been killed. But there are five soldiers and five bailiffs standing guard outside the courtyard. Where did the murderer go?” He gang said as he walked.
“He died in bed? Was the person who delivered the food from the Wang Residence’s kitchen?” Gu Xin asked.
“Yes, I am. The Butler had arranged for a total of five people to deliver the meals. Those who delivered the food to the eldest branch first sent it to the crown prince’s wife and fourth miss Bai’s room, and then sent it to eldest young master Bai’s room.” He gang said.
Fourth miss Bai was the daughter of the Donglin Prince’s family, Bai Shiying. She was 16 years old this year. Gu Xin had a good impression of this lady as she looked very mature. She also heard from the crown prince’s wife that when she was sick, this lady had been by her side taking care of her.
Gu Xin liked this kind of filial and sensible child.
The housekeeper arranged for five people to deliver the food. Coincidentally, there were five siblings in the Prince of Donglin’s residence. Because the princess Consort was a vegetarian, there was a small kitchen in the small Buddha Hall. Usually, the princess Consort did not eat in the large kitchen in the residence.
Gu Xin did not ask any further.
He gang had also rushed over to look for Gu Xin after he found out that Bai Shijie had died, so he did not know much.
Soon, they arrived at the courtyard of the eldest branch, Bai Shijie.
Constable Gao was already waiting at the gate, and more people were gathering around the yard.
When he saw Gu Xin and the rest coming over, Constable Gao stepped forward and saluted them.
Gu Xin asked,’is grandma Bai awake? There’s no movement inside, right?”
“Third miss, grandma Bai is awake.” Constable Gao replied. I didn’t order anyone to touch the things inside. It was just that when we found young master Bai, there was a bit of panic inside, and the bedside was a bit messy.”
Gu Xin nodded, ” bring some men and set up the stage. Xiao Qiu, get ready to do the autopsy. He gang, he Qiang, come in with me!”
“Yes!”
The few of them replied respectfully.
After entering the courtyard, Gu Xin could hear the sound of crying. It was even louder than the sound she heard outside.
Some children were crying, and some adults were crying. They were crying their hearts out, and there were two voices of persuasion, but it was useless.
