The White Mountain Island was the largest county in the southeast region of the Immortal Swallow Country. There were a total of four counties in the entire country, and the one closest to the two rivers, West Jin County, was the most barren. org

There were a total of one hundred and twenty-one villages under the jurisdiction of the Western District. Regardless of whether it was Blackwater Village or Cyan Three Village, they were both among the most unremarkable.

There weren't many taxes, nor were there many commoners. However, since they were close to the coast, they could still be considered to be in a good position. At the very least, they had not yet defaulted on the annual taxes.

When the corpse was sent to the yamen, County Magistrate Song did not feel that it was a big deal, but he still requested the legal medical expert to examine the corpse according to the rules.

Actually, when County Magistrate Song first laid eyes on Huang Erbao's corpse, he already knew that he had hanged himself for no other reason than that the red ring around his neck was clearly from hanging himself. The young lady of today, even if she felt a bit pressured, she would still want to die.

This Huang Erbao had clearly walked into a dead end. Although he didn't know what gave her a life of ease, since she was already dead, there was no need to pursue this matter any further. org

Even when legal medical expert was conducting an autopsy, she still had time to think about whether it would be better to eat water and cook meat after lunch, or to fry green fish.

And it was just as he had expected.

After a short time of autopsy, the experienced legal medical expert gave a definite answer. Right, it was suicide.

County Magistrate Song muttered "as expected" in his heart. At the same time, he picked up the wood to make a decision... However, the villagers of Bai San Village were in an uproar.

The following developments made County Magistrate Song, who had an old arm and an old leg, very tired.

After that, they pushed out a little boy who was younger than the youngest son of the Song Family. That little boy had been talking for a whole two hours, and finally forced the Song Family to give a thorough investigation!

County Magistrate Song was very angry. You want to investigate just like that? Who was the official and who was the citizen?

Then, County Magistrate Song almost understood what it meant to force the citizens to rebel...

Yes, the villagers from Cyan Village had caused a huge ruckus. They had even passed on a note at the county yamen saying that the county magistrate was not doing anything, and that they were complaining about the flying moon and the flying frost, causing them to die with grievances.

He even said that he would put Huang Erbao's corpse in front of the county's yamen's main entrance to incite the masses. He even told people everywhere that if Huang Erbao's number seven came back to seek revenge, he would look for the people from the yamen!

County Magistrate Song was so furious that he wanted nothing more than to capture these troublesome citizens!

However, he was smart. If he caught him, he would run. If he chased him again, he might as well sit on the street and not get up. He cried and howled, attracting even more passers-by to point at him.

In the end, he had been a lover of feathers for twelve years, and now, he was ready to send his regards in another two years. Thus, he didn't dare to use this piece of porcelain to touch the vats, and so he agreed to take a look.

Although it was a investigation, due to the discomfort in his heart, County Magistrate Song did not do any actual work. He did not even send a single bailiff. It was clear that he was going to use the "drag" character.

However, what was even worse was that the talkative little boy, the rascal whom the people of Third Village had called "Brother Liu", did not need the help of the bailiffs nor the authority of the yamen. As soon as the county magistrate relented, he brought a group of people to investigate.

After a few days, he really did find out that Huang Erbao was related to outer sect disciple Sun's Second Young Master.

That relationship.

But Steward Sun was an "old friend" of his, so County Magistrate Song didn't dare to stand idly by. He had to ask.

However, he could not simply remove the Sun family's suspicion. He could only wait and see. He planned to lend the Sun family a helping hand when he had the chance.

While County Magistrate Song was thinking about the collusion between the officials and the village, Little Brother Liu brought dozens of villagers to stir up the Sun family. In the end, they found Second Young Master Sun's corpse.

When it came to the life of the Sun family's young master, County Magistrate Song finally realized the seriousness of the situation. On one side was the village of Bai San forcing him to give Huang Erbao justice, and on the other side was the outer sect's rich Sun merchants crying as they wanted him to find the real culprit for their son.

County Magistrate Song's head was one and his two heads were big. Then, his precise gaze fell upon the little boy who was called "Little Spirit Child".

Perhaps, this child really could discover something?

With this thought in mind, County Magistrate Song couldn't wait any longer. He changed his attitude towards dueling and started to seriously try to get close to the little boy.

In the end, he was still a child, so he could easily let bygones be bygones and reveal a lot of clues to him.

County Magistrate Song was very happy. He felt that everything was moving in the right direction and that the case would be solved soon.

However, at this time, that little brat came to the yamen again. The first thing he said to him was: "Lord Magistrate, I've found another corpse. It will be delivered tomorrow morning. Go find someone to receive it."

"What?" County Magistrate Song was dumbfounded. His voice trembled a little: "Little Ancestor, what do you think happened this time?"

"Last night, there was a person who died on top of the mountain, which is the mountain behind our Blackwater Village. The victim's name is Gao Huai, a resident of Four Seasons Village, but he left the village a long time ago to earn a living in the county."

"Takashimoto Shizuka?" His private life had always been rather chaotic, so the Song County's magistrate's eyes bulged out immediately. "He's dead?"

The fair boy looked at him and raised his eyebrows. "Just now, I went to the Sun family and received news that when that Gao Huai and Sun Erxiao were alive, their relationship seemed to be very good."

Of course, Second Young Master Sun was also a courtesan. There were a lot of high school juniors.

He then asked, "Could it be that you want to say that the death of Gao Huai was also related to the previous two murders?"

"Who knows?" The little boy smacked his lips and said with a meaningful tone, "The people I know just happen to die back and forth. The probability of coincidence isn't high, and Gao Huai's death is only slightly better than Sun Ergou's."

County Magistrate Song immediately thought of Second Young Master Sun's meaty appearance and his face turned pale.

The little boy continued, "I have some thoughts. Is the county magistrate free right now?"

County Magistrate Song, who had already left the hall and was planning to take his concubine back home, paused for a moment before he finally nodded his head dryly, "Yes, I'm free."
