Chapter 103: You Are the Murderer
“Secretary Liu, this is the murderer.”
The muscular man called Xiao Zhu said to the middle-aged woman. The woman looked at Yun Qin with a complicated expression.
Yun Qin once again realized that the middle-aged woman’s wrist also didn’t have a black ghost mark.
Presumably, this secretary Liu was on the same side as the village chief.
“Mr. Nong, take a look. Is this woman the person who wanted to kill you just now?”
Secretary Liu turned her head and said to the old man.
Yun Qin stood in front of the old man magnanimously. She did not believe that since she was the person who saved him, he couldn’t possibly accuse her of being the murderer.
The old man narrowed his eyes and sized up Yun Qin. Then, he said, “Yes, yes, it seems to be her.”
“What nonsense are you talking about?” Yun Qin frowned and said, “The person who tried to kill you was a person wearing white clothes. I was the one who saved you!”
“I saw you…”
“And you saw me when you woke up. If I really wanted to kill you, why would I bother to save you?”
The old man hid back for a while. Secretary Liu immediately blocked in front of Yun Qin and blamed her, “I don’t care if you are a suspect or not. Is this your attitude when talking to an elder?”
Yun Qin felt aggrieved by the sudden accusation. She didn’t expect that the old man would accuse her to be the murderer when she saved him. So she said, “He’s too old to see clearly and blames me for being a murderer? Are you guys being reasonable?”
However, the village chief didn’t give them the chance to continue confronting each other. He said coldly, “Alright, the victim already identified you. Don’t quibble. Xiao Zhu, tie her up first and we’ll send her to the police station in the morning.”
Seeing that the matter was settled, Yun Qin let out a breath. She did not want to go to the police station before everything was clarified. A plan suddenly appeared in her mind, she said, “Fine, let’s go to the police station. After all, I suspect that you guys killed my sister!”
Hearing this, everyone present was stunned. Xiao Zhu, who was at the side, was the first to gasp. As if he had thought of something, he turned his head and exclaimed, “Village chief, that woman is…”
However, the village chief glared at him and interrupted Xiao Zhu from continuing. He asked meaningfully, “Oh? Your sister?”
Yun Qin knew that she had something on the village chief now. She immediately calmed down, she said, “My sister came to your village a few days ago and disappeared after that! My sister came to me in a dream and said she drowned in the well because of you. That’s why I came here!”
Secretary Liu rolled her eyes, and a smile appeared on her face. She said, “Come, this may be a misunderstanding. Let’s sit down and talk.”
The three men at the side all looked terrified. They usually worked for the village chief. They saw what the female corpse in the well looked like. It was indeed a strange death.
Now, her sister came to their door and even said that they were murderers. How could they not feel guilty?
As the village chief’s helpers, they could get in trouble for not reporting the death, right?
Seeing that everyone was nervous, the village chief coughed lightly and said, “There’s a misunderstanding. Come, take a closer look at this little girl again and see if she’s the murderer?”
Thus, the old man once again came closer and carefully studied Yun Qin’s appearance. Her facial features were exquisite, and her delicate crescent eyes did not look like the murderer the more he looked at her.
“This… doesn’t seem to be the case.”
The old man glanced at the village chief and answered carefully.
Seeing the old man recant his statement so easily, Yun Qin sneered in her heart. It turned out that the old man she saved was not a good person either, since he followed the village chief’s orders.
The village chief was anxious to find an excuse to control her when he saw her at the well. What was his reason?
Was it because he was afraid that the body found in the well would be exposed? Or was he afraid that word of a female ghost would spread?
“If not, then who is the murderer…”
Secretary Liu could no longer maintain her smile and said with difficulty.
“You all can leave. I want to talk to her alone.”
The village chief scanned the crowd and said with a frown.
So he wants to force a confession now? The corner of Yun Qin’s mouth curled slightly. She couldn’t wait to do so.
“Ah… Alright.”
Secretary Liu hesitated for a moment. She glanced at Yun Qin uneasily, but she still obediently led everyone out.
After everyone left, the village chief sneered and said, “Still pretending?”
Yun Qin thought that he was still talking about the female ghost killing people, so she directly ignored him and reminded him, “You must know about my sister, right?”
She meant that she also had something on the village chief, so it would be wise for the village chief not to be so arrogant.
However, when Yun Qin mentioned it, the village chief seemed to have eaten gunpowder. He walked up to her aggressively and stared at Yun Qin, “Do you think I don’t Know? You are not her sister at all…”
Seeing the village chief approach her, Yun Qin took the opportunity to activate her “Insight” skill, and a scene instantly appeared in front of her.
The village chief, who did not have so many wrinkles on his face and did not have white hair, forced a beautiful woman in tattered clothes to the side of the well. The woman trembled as she reprimanded him. In the end, the village chief pushed her into the well.
