Chapter 254: Autopsy

Translator: Henyee Translations | Editor: Henyee Translations

Old Madam Ning was inexplicably looking forward to the eldest branch paying for the funeral, but she did not expect a group of bailiffs to come.

“You’re Madam Liu, right?”

Old Madam Ning looked at the official nervously. “Yes, I’m…

Second Aunt Ning, who was pale but full of hatred, walked out from behind the bailiffs. “It’s her. She poisoned my man!”

When the villagers understood what he meant, they were all shocked. Old Madam Ning naturally refused to admit it. “What nonsense are you talking about? That’s my son. Why would I take his life?

She rolled her eyes. “Alright, I was wondering why there was a sudden mishap at home and you disappeared. I think you fled after committing murder and arson. When you realized that you couldn’t escape, you cried thief, right?”

The bailiff didn’t have the time to talk to them. “Go in and search.

The bailiff first followed Second Aunt Ning’s instructions and found the charred chicken in the corner of the chicken coop. However, this thing was already burned hard. No matter how good the coroner was, he probably wouldn’t be able to find anything.

Old Madam Ning was feeling smug when she saw the bailiffs walking towards

the mourning hall.

“What are you doing?”

The bailiff said concisely, “Autopsy.”

How could Old Madam Ning be willing? “My son died miserably enough. Do you

still want to disturb his peace after death? No, you can’t do that!”

The bailiffs’ strength was not something ordinary villagers could compare to. Moreover, Second Aunt Ning was swearing behind them. “I heard her poison my husband with my own ears. It’s definitely not wrong!”

The coroner inserted a silver needle into Second Uncle Ning’s stomach and slowly pulled it out while everyone held their breaths.

“It’s black! It’s black! It’s poisonous!” Second Aunt Ning cried and laughed, but Old Madam Ning said confidently, “Fengcai doesn’t want to implicate us. He already wants to die, so isn’t it normal for him to hang himself after taking the poison?”

Second Aunt Ning suddenly looked at the coroner. He was taking out some undigested food from Second Uncle Ning’s stomach and mixing several things with the things he took out to see the changes. He tried a few times but to no avail.

Selling the poison that killed snakes, insects, rats, and ants needed to be registered. If it was found to be arsenic or something, they could verify the murderer’s identity by asking the sales office who had bought it. However, why couldn’t this thing be verified?

Old Madam Ning was relieved. She had learned about the poisonous grass from a traveling doctor when she was young. Other than her, not to mention Fortune Village, even the old doctors in the county could not recognize it.

The bailiffs who went to the house to search did not find anything either. They were all proper officials and could not steal anything. Seeing that there were no suspicious items in the house, they could only give up.

Xiaoxiao’s eyes had long been covered by her brothers to prevent her from looking, but sometimes, she did not need to use her eyes.

[Baby, analyze the ingredients and see what poison Second Uncle has been poisoned with.]

The space received the order: [Analyzing, Master. The deceased took a plant called “Pennial Red” in the database. There’s even a pot of this in the Liu

Family’s house.]

Should she say that Old Madam Ning was bold because of her skills, or that she did not have a strong sense of aftermath?

Xiaoxiao suddenly sighed and said, “No matter who’s right or wrong here, we’re already here. Why don’t we go offer incense to Second Uncle and send him off on his last journey?”

Offering incense was an excuse. She only wanted to get closer. Knowing that she was already six meters away from the pot of grass, Xiaoxiao stopped in her tracks.

[Use Range Control. Target object, the rat in the corner.]

The old residence did not care about hygiene, and the insects and rats at home were never absent. Xiaoxiao chose the one closest to her and controlled it to run into the house to take a bite of the Pennial Red’s stem and leaves. Then, she pushed down the flower pot with all her might.

“Eh, what’s that sound?”

Seeing that some bailiffs were attracted by the noise, Xiaoxiao moved aside and continued to act as an unrelated passerby.

When it was her turn to light incense, she said to “Ning Xiaoxiao”, who could no longer come back, in her heart, “The person who killed you did not have a good ending after all.”

The incense burned and the smoke twisted and dissipated, as if someone was responding.

“Boss, there’s something strange here. A rat died in this house.”

Old Madam Ning’s expression changed drastically!

She originally thought that that thing might still be useful in the future. Since no one knew it, she only placed it in the house. Who would have thought that there would be rats to eat it? Now, she only hoped that the bailiffs would not think about it.

The chief of the bailiffs walked in. “What’s this? A pot of grass? Why did you put this grass in the house?”

Xiaoxiao glanced sideways. “Oh, that’s my Grandma’s baby. She has had it since

I was young. I usually put it outside to bask in the sun.” After saying that, she tried to activate the Range Control function again. Unexpectedly, the space told her heartlessly: [Master, the special function can only be used once a day.]

Tsk, the cooldown time was so long. She could not afford to play.

Fortunately, those who could follow County Magistrate Shen and be entrusted with important tasks were not ordinary people, especially his right-hand man who was sent to deal with Fortune Village today.

Bailiff Tang’s gaze darted between the rat and the potted plant. He made a prompt decision. “Bring them all back.”

Old Madam Ning panicked. “You’re here to take evidence. Why are you taking my grass?”

Bailiff Tang looked down at her coldly. “Whether it’s evidence or not, we’ll know when we bring it back for examination.

Xiaoxiao chimed in, “Grandma, you don’t have to worry. The genius doctor, that Second Uncle mentioned, lives in the county office. With him around, he will definitely clear your name!”

Old Madam Ning felt that she could see a cold arrow in Xiaoxiao’s gaze. She felt like her entire body was soaked in ice water.

What did she mean by “return your innocence”? She wanted her life, right?

No, she could not sit back and wait for death!

At the thought of this, Old Madam Ning rushed towards the strapping bailiff. She reached out to snatch the pot of Pennial Red. Then… then she was taken down.

Bailiff Tang raised the unidentified grass and looked coldly at Old Madam Ning, who was screaming in pain with her hands behind her back. “Mrs. Liu, have you ever heard of the saying ‘exposing yourself? You’re admitting it without asking.”

Although Madam Liu was ruthless, she was still a peasant woman who had never seen the world. She had never seen the methods of an official. When she was brought to court, she could not help but curse her former second daughter-in-law. “Do you think you’re free just like that? If you sue me, you’ll also be pulled away by the brokers to pay your debts. You might as well hide and live!”

Second Aunt Ning’s face was filled with hatred. “So what? Even if I have to be a slave and a prostitute for the rest of my life, I want you to pay with your life.” Old Madam Ning said angrily, “A life for a life? Who are you talking to? If you want to save your man, you could have reminded him when I fed him poisonous chicken soup. Why do you have to use such an afterthought?” Second Aunt Ning smiled even more mockingly than her. “Who said I wanted to take revenge for that heartless thing?

Old Madam Ning was stunned. Second Aunt Ning laughed out loud. “I’m taking revenge for myself and my child who didn’t get to see this world at this time. What has your heartless son’s death got to do with me? Let me tell you, not only do I have to watch him be poisoned to death by his biological mother, but the casino also said that they want to sell me to a brothel, right? Alright, I’ll make your son a cuckold even if he becomes a ghost!”

“I also want your entire family to suffer!”
