Sun and Moon Are Wrong: Traveling Through Time from Under One Person

Chapter 298 Analysis

Er Guo looked serious and introduced to everyone: "Everyone, in this case of the newly married wife of Wang from the west of the city, they were originally an enviable pair of childhood sweethearts.

Wang Wu is the descendant of a blacksmith and is honest and hardworking. Xiao Huan is a tofu beauty who is hardworking and beautiful.

They had known each other since childhood and had a deep affection for each other, and they thought they would have a happy marriage.

On the wedding day, Xiao Huan suddenly increased the price of the betrothal gift that had been agreed upon in advance, and Wang Wu's parents had no choice but to mortgage their ancestral blacksmith shop to complete the marriage.

He thought that Xiao Huan's family coveted the blacksmith shop, but after the marriage, Xiao Huan gave her own shop as a dowry, and the blacksmith shop returned to Wang Wu's hands.

However, on the wedding night, Wang Wu got drunk and was so ashamed of the betrothal gift that he beat Xiao Huan to death.

Wang Wu was soon arrested and executed.

Originally, the matter would have ended here, but after Wang Wu's death, both families felt that they were wrong to cause such a disaster, so they bought a tomb together and buried the couple together.

But when the funeral procession was held, the skin of both of them disappeared. The above is all I have found out.

After hearing this, Meng Ning frowned and was shocked. When I was exorcising the demon in the lake, the evil corpse told this story to Zhang Yingcai.

And from what Erguo said, this case was indeed not committed by the evil corpse, but she later got involved and took away the faces of the two people involved in the case.

It seems that this corpse has an almost paranoid madness regarding matters between men and women.

Upon hearing this, Ma Chao nodded slightly, indicating that he understood.

Then, he looked at Hao Guang and said, "Hao Guang, then go on and tell me what the results of your investigation today are."

Hao Guang said: "What I am investigating today is the death of the new lover of Widow Li, the daughter of a wealthy businessman in the south of the city.

In general, the widow Li's new lover abandoned his original wife for money and lived off her."

Ma Chao asked, "Tell me in detail."

Hao Guang cleared his throat and said, "This Widow Li was originally the daughter of a wealthy businessman in the south of the city, and she became a widow at a young age.

She took care of the household affairs by herself, and Zhao San delivered food to her home regularly. After a few visits, the two gradually became familiar with each other.

Zhao San was eloquent and could often make Widow Li smile.

Although Widow Li had a huge fortune, she often felt lonely.

After a while, Widow Li thought she had met someone who truly loved her, so she accepted Zhao San.

Zhao San had a wife who had been with him through thick and thin. After this incident, his wife could not bear her husband's affair and the humiliation she felt, so she hanged herself in the middle of the night.

Zhao San was very happy to hear the news, but he hadn't time to celebrate yet.

The next day, his body was discovered by outsiders, his face peeled off, and his death was extremely horrific. "

After Hao Guang finished speaking, everyone present looked at each other and began to praise the behavior of the mysterious evil corpse.

Erguo said excitedly: "This evil corpse did a good job! Zhao San was so unfaithful and heartless, he deserved this fate!"

Miao Qingqing also nodded in agreement: "That's right, people like this should be punished. The evil corpse's actions are to enforce justice on behalf of heaven."

Ma Chao coughed lightly and said, "Don't jump to conclusions so easily. Even if this person is guilty, he should be judged by the law. This evil corpse kills and skins people at will. His behavior is weird and there must be a conspiracy."

After that, Ma Chao turned his gaze to Xiao Hai and said, "Xiao Hai, tell us about your investigation."

Haishan responded, then pouted his lips and said, "I am investigating the death of the master of the Chuibing Du family.

This case is very simple. Du Dalang, the head of the Du family, works hard to make a living and is under great pressure, but he earns very little money.

His wife was quite dissatisfied with this and scolded him. Du Dalang felt depressed and went to Shili Waterside Pavilion to drink to relieve his sorrow.

However, the next day his face-peeled body was found in the river.

This is a typical case of an undead corpse, nothing much to say. It's just that this family is quite pitiful. The pillar of the family died suddenly, and the future livelihood of the mother and daughter is worrying.

I heard from Widow Du that she and her mother are planning to remarry, as this is the only way they can survive."

When everyone heard this, they sighed.

Erguo sighed, "This Du Dalang is really pitiful. Just because his wife complained a few words, he ended up like this."

Qingqing agreed, "Yes, but why did this evil corpse do such a cruel thing to him and even peel off his skin? It's really puzzling."

Ma Chao heard this, thought for a moment and then spoke to Meng Ning. "Xiao Ning, you are the only one left. Tell me what you saw and heard today."

Meng Ning nodded slightly, looking somewhat helpless: "What I am investigating today is the case of the mysterious death of Old Master Zhao in Zhaojiazhuang outside the city.

Before I went there, I thought it was the work of the undead evil corpse. But after a thorough investigation, I found that there was something else going on. "

When everyone heard this, they pricked up their ears and stared at Meng Ning.

Meng Ning continued, "It turns out that this old man Zhao was having an affair with his daughter-in-law, and was accidentally caught by his son.

The son was so angry that he accidentally killed his father. In order to cover up this scandal, he disguised himself as a vicious corpse.

Erguo said angrily: "This is something that goes against ethics and moral principles. It is simply outrageous."

Miao Qingqing sighed, "Poor Zhao's daughter-in-law, I don't know how she will cope with the future."

After hearing this, Ma Chao raised a question: "This matter has nothing to do with the undead corpse? Is it that someone is using his bad reputation to commit murder?"

Meng Ning nodded and said, "Yes, Master, what you said is correct. Someone is using the name of that evil corpse to commit serial crimes.

Anyway, the evil corpse will not kill people to make a living, but will suck their vitality into a mummy, so this will give others a good opportunity to fish in troubled waters."

After talking about the five cases, Ma Chao pondered for a moment, then glanced at Meng Ning and Haishan.

The two of them had a tacit understanding. Meng Ning immediately activated the soundproof room to seal off the place. Hai Shan also used his Penglai magical power to slow down the time around them to block out any sound.

After the two of them had released their restrictions, Ma Chao looked at everyone and spoke.

"I have already deduced this matter. The logic of the undead corpse harming people is disloyalty.

The hiding place of the undead corpse is the Ten-Li Waterside Pavilion in Yangzhou City.

No... let me be more precise, she is most likely living next door to us now!"

When these words were spoken, everyone was shocked and asked Ma Chao the reason. Then Ma Chao picked up the first file and began to slowly explain his explanation.

"The first case is the death of the geisha Xiao Zi. The files and Qing Qing's investigation both said that this woman led an immoral life and loved to cheat people for money.

But there are countless singing houses in this ten-mile waterside pavilion, and Xiao Zi is not the only one who cheated people out of their money, so why did she die alone?"

"Why?" everyone asked.

"Because she also cheated on love, and she cheated on more than one person. The love she cheated on was not just a casual one, but true love."

"True love?" Everyone wondered. They didn't understand why Master Ma Chao could determine that what Xiao Zi had deceived was true love.

"Because of hatred!" Ma Chao said resolutely: "Xiao Zi is from Shili Waterside, which is a place of prostitution.

All the guests who come here for pleasure are playboys. Even if they are cheated of their money, they just suffer in silence and consider themselves unlucky.

But Xiao Zi's guests were different. When they talked about Xiao Zi, every one of them hated her."

"And hatred... is a kind of true emotion. Only those who are moved by emotions and feelings will hate others."

"Oh..." Ma Chao said, and everyone nodded to show that they accepted his instruction.

Ma Chao obviously hadn't finished his words, "Then... the second thing is what Erguo is investigating, the case of Wang's newlywed wife's death."
