However, thinking about it, even a six year old child could solve the case with a post-mortem examination. Although this young master looked like an embroidered pillow, he was still an adult after all. Perhaps this person really did have some ability.

However, the short-handed boy did not accept this statement. He jumped up and emphasized, "Not a helper, but a chief investigator!"

Xiaoli thought that with their current economic environment, her mother would talk about salary first.

Frowning slightly, Liu Wei still walked over, and only instructed her son to open the window.

The weather in the early autumn wasn't that bad, but because of the continuous autumn rain, the wooden houses would easily reek if it rained outside. As a result, not only did the corpses stink, there was also a musty smell that couldn't be ignored.

Xiaoli went over to open the window and saw that County Governor Song had also followed them outside, so she invited him in to have a look.

County Magistrate Song came in with a handkerchief over his nose and stopped by the door.

Four corpses, from left to right, Huang Erbao, Sun Jian, Gao Huai, and Sun Tong.

Huang Erbao's corpse had been delivered to the yamen half a month ago and was placed in a warm climate. Currently, it was more than half decayed.

Sun Yiyi's corpse was taken back by the Sun family members. After beating the ice coffin and staying still for a long time, if it wasn't for Sun Tong's accident this time, the Sun family definitely wouldn't have handed the coffin over to the county magistrate.

However, Sun Jian's corpse looked nothing much. A few lumps of meat paste were stored in three large bowls.

Then there was the corpse of Takashimoto Shizuka and the corpse of Sun Tong.

Takashimoto Shizuka's one was more or less the same as Huang Erbao's; it was half rotten. Sun Tong, on the other hand, was quite fresh and had even fried it before. Not to mention that it didn't rot, it even smelled like grilled meat.

Smelling it, Liu Wei felt a little hungry, she turned and said to Xiaoli: "Go buy some food." They didn't come out for breakfast.

Xiaoli, on the other hand, was very familiar with the route, and immediately said: "The yamen's kitchen is always cooking in the morning, I'll go get it!" As she spoke, she slipped away.

County Magistrate Song thought for himself as he stood at the door. What did food have to do with corpses? What food would help the autopsy?

After thinking for a long time, he could not think of a reason. However, because he was not familiar with this young master, and he could not blindly ask about disturbing the other party's autopsy, he decided to wait for the little spirit child to return and ask her about it.

After a while, Xiaoli came back with two buns and two bowls of porridge.

County Magistrate Song's gaze was fixated on the two dishes as he stared fixedly at them.

Then, he saw the young master fiddling with Sun Tong's corpse, taking out a handkerchief from his bosom and wiping his hands. Then, he took the bowl of porridge, raised his head and took a sip, then picked up a bun with his chopsticks and nibbled on it.

County Official Song, "…"

Looking back at the little spirit child and seeing that the young noble had eaten, he happily opened his mouth to eat as well. As he ate, he walked up to the wooden bed where Sun Tong's corpse was lying.

County Magistrate Song couldn't hold it in. He covered his mouth and threw up while leaning against the wall.

When Xiaoli heard the commotion, he took the bowl and went out to have a look. After she saw everything, she said with disdain, "So dirty, I don't want to eat anymore." After saying that, she placed the steamed bun and bowl of porridge at the door before entering the room unhappily.

In the end, County Magistrate Song did not dare to enter again. He stood outside the courtyard with a pale face and lips. He was rubbing his eyebrows and groaning as if he was in great pain.

After a while, the two fiends came out. After they came out, they even closed the firewood door affectionately.

"County Magistrate Song, we're going to the dyeing workshop. Are you going?" Xiaoli asked crisply.

County Magistrate Song looked weak as he waved his hand, "I don't want to move. I feel nauseous, uncomfortable, and stuffy."

Xiaoli then went over and pinched his wrist to probe, and then said: "There's nothing major wrong, just make some cool tea and drink two bowls."

County Official Song nodded with a pale face, he raised his eyes and looked at the young noble again, and asked Xiaoli in the end, "What did you see? Is there a direction to Young Master Sun's case? "

Xiaoli immediately laughed, "I do, I do. My mother will know when she sees it!"

County Magistrate Song was stunned for a moment. He made sure that he didn't hear anything. Then, he suddenly jumped up and pointed at the white-clothed gongzi, "Your mother?"

Xiaoli nodded her head strongly: "Yes, yes, my mother!"

Liu Wei saw that they still had a little more to talk, so she said: "You guys continue to chat, how do you want the kitchen to leave?" A steamed bun and a bowl of porridge was not enough to fill one's stomach.

Xiaoli immediately led the way for his mother. She still wanted to go with his mother, but County Commander Song didn't let him go, so he pulled him along and chattered some questions. Xiaoli could only allow his mother to go first, while she stayed behind to explain things to County Marshal Song.

After a while, his mother came over again.

Liu Wei took three more buns and wrapped them in oil paper, then asked her son: "Can we go now?"

Xiaoli immediately said: "It's done, it's done, the cloth shop is on the west street!"

Watching the two of them leave, County Magistrate Song was stunned. He was still reminiscing about the shock he had just faced. After a long while, he wiped his face and staggered back to his study.

On the other side, Zhong Ziyu and Wei Chou who had been waiting at the inn for an entire night, but did not see Liu Wei coming back, could not sit still any longer.

Logically speaking, they should have escaped the tigress with their lives and parted ways with her.

However, it was clear that the two had no intention of leaving.

Wei Chou was still thinking about the little boy who bumped into him yesterday. Was that person Liu Xiaoli?

Zhong Ziyu was wholeheartedly concerned about Liu Wei's plan, search through the sea, and so on.

After a final round of discussion, the two decided to make another trip to the inn where Lady Yun settled down. However, as soon as they arrived at the door, Wei Chou did not enter, but instead said, "Go and ask, I'll be waiting for you at the door."

Zhong Ziyu was puzzled: "Why?"

Wei Chou replied, "Because …"

Before he could finish his words, he heard a high-spirited female voice from the inn: "Hawthorn Sugar! Hawthorn Sugar Man! Hawthorn Sugar Man! "

Wei Chou's face instantly turned white.
