Dong Huiying was also stunned for a mont, "Sister Fang?"
It truly was a coincidence, the Female Yan Officer Fang Lanshan actually lived here.
Recently, Fang Lanshan had been in high spirits due to auspicious events. Officer Han and the Departnt of Surveillance’s Official Pang had always been at odds. She had previously worked under Official Pang and had later been transferred to Officer Han’s supervision. She had thought that it would be difficult to gain favor under Officer Han, but due to her competent work, she unexpectedly received his appreciation and was even promoted to arrest officer.
"To be honest, my husband was abducted by soone, and there were witnesses who claid that he was brought here."
Fang Lanshan was taken aback. Just then, the acrid smoke beca suffocating, and suddenly soone shouted out loud. "Oh no, there’s a fire, quickly, soone co put out the fire!"
...
The blaze raged fiercely, and after the fire was extinguished, two charred bodies were carried out.
"Poor Little Qing; she lost her mother at a young age and was sold by her father into the Sky Blue Building. She had finally redeed herself, and now this tragedy befalls her?"
"And who is this other person? This body is tall, and the face is unrecognizable due to being charred, but the fra looks big; however, it seems to be a man?"
Dong Huiying pursed her lips.
She thought of the flirtatious Liang Shujun, rembered his kisses, his playful grin, and the look on his face when he was hurt, as well as their interactions over the past few days. Her mind reeled for a mont, and her figure wavered, almost collapsing to the ground.
The burning house belonged to a Young Servant of the Sky Blue Building. Coincidentally, among the two charred bodies, one – even with its unrecognizable features – was roughly the sa size as Liang Shujun.
How could it be such a coincidence?
Why did this place suddenly catch fire?
Dong Huiying bit her lip, unwilling to believe in her heart. Wasn’t this person who was full of life just this morning, now dead? Burnt to death?
No, that’s not right!
She suddenly rushed toward the charred body, staring at its right hand. This person’s right hand was deford; this was not Liang Shujun!
"Miss Dong..." Officer Fang approached Dong Huiying from behind, wanting to offer words of sympathy for her loss, but seeing Dong Huiying’s expression, she couldn’t bring herself to speak.
The most dreadful thing for people is the parting of life and death; if it were to happen to herself, she probably would not be able to bear it either.
"He’s not dead!"
Dong Huiying’s eyes shone brightly, "It’s good if he’s not dead. This body is not Shujun’s. This male corpse has a deford right hand, and it also emits a foul stench, indicating that it has been decaying for at least two days. And look at this one, there is a lot of soil in his ears. If I’m not mistaken, these two bodies were buried several days ago, but were dug up by soone for so reason, resulting in them becoming what we see now, charred remains!"
Fang Lanshan was also shocked, "This must be reported to the officer."
Dong Huiying narrowed her eyes, her thoughts were clear, yet her expression held so confusion.
Who did this, and why go through such great lengths?
Fang Lanshan summoned the Coroner to examine the bodies, and the findings were much the sa as what Dong Huiying had speculated.
One of the bodies had been dead for six days, and the other for eight days.
Officer Han ordered a thorough investigation into the case. Fang Lanshan, along with several Female Yan Officers, started making inquiries everywhere, trying to ascertain the identities of the charred corpses. At that mont, Dong Huiying approached Fang Lanshan.
"I want to examine the bodies!"
"What?"
This really gave Fang Lanshan quite a shock.
"Miss Xiao Dong, this... this is against convention, and besides..." She sized up Dong Huiying from head to toe.
The young girl looked too young, too tender, like a girl who had not yet co of age, and here she was, wanting to deal with the dead—was she not afraid?
