My Lady Is Not A Demon

Chapter 103 The Storm Before Dawn!

madman!

After recovering, Chen Mu cursed secretly, rushed to the window and leaned out to check.

Seeing Xue Caiqing lying on the ground for unknown circumstances, he gritted his teeth and jumped out of the window, using his toes a little harder to jump on the extended window sill on the second floor with the help of the raised stone slab outside the window, and once again borrowed force to roll and fall to the ground.

At this time, pedestrians on the street gradually surrounded.

The sharp cry for help just caught everyone's attention. Before they could react, they saw Xue Caiqing, who was panicked, jumped from the third floor and fell heavily to the ground.

Although the grass was light, it still fell hard, and the white forehead was cut by a sharp stone edge, and blood gushed out.

People were all stunned by this scene.

Especially seeing Chen Mu jumping out of the window on the third floor, the expressions of the people were even more weird, thinking of a bad plot.

"Help...help...help!"

Seeing Chen Mu jumped down, Xue Caiqing grabbed the flap with his hands, and the scattered green silk was quite embarrassed with grass clippings.

She dragged her body back desperately, hissing for help, feeling sad. The red blood dripped down the forehead, dyed with white gauze, like a fascinating blooming rose.

Hearing the movement, the old bustard ran up to the room on the third floor, and saw the chaos of the room, but Xue Caiqing and Chen Mu were the only ones who were heartbroken. He hurriedly ran to the window to check, and he almost fainted on the spot.

"What are you doing Chen Catching?!"

The old bustard's voice was sharp and almost deformed, and he couldn't care about continuing to scold him and hurried downstairs to stop Chen Mu's "violence".

Yun Zhiyue who came together was also a little confused.

She was a little slender and leaped out of the window like a finches, and fell to the ground, protecting her in front of Xue Caiqing: "Chen Mu, are you crazy!"

Chen Mu calmed down amidst the scolding.

He scanned the onlookers, staring at Xue Caiqing with cold eyes: "Is it worth it? Is it worth it to protect a scumbag who has betrayed you?"

Xue Caiqing just kept moving back, her eyes full of fear.

This situation can easily lead people to think that Chen Mu did something extraordinary to a woman, causing the woman to make such a desperate move.

Especially the other party is a very popular courtesan in Qingyu County!

"Caiqing!"

The old bustard, who rushed out of the door very quickly, saw Xue Caiqing, who was stained with blood, turned pale with fright. He ran to hold the woman in his arms and glared at Chen Mu:

"Chen catches the head, what are you doing? I knew that you were going to be unruly to Caiqing. I said nothing would let you in. You wait, I will complain to Master Gao. Today so many people are watching, you Don't want to deny!"

The crowd onlookers was also whispering.

If it weren't for the good character Chen Mu had accumulated on weekdays, I'm afraid he would have been accused and insulted long ago.

"You are great, I admit it."

Chen Mu gave Xue Caiqing a thumbs up.

He knew that he was put on by this woman, and if he continued to ask questions, he would undoubtedly cause unnecessary trouble.

After speaking, he turned and left.

After the recollection, Yun Zhiyue gave Xue Caiqing a deep look and left with Chen Mu.

...

On a secluded street.

Chen Mu, with a stern look, thought about the consequences of Xue Caiqing's "frame-up" while combing through the information of the case.

Xue Caiqing's response was indeed something he hadn't expected.

After such a fuss, it will inevitably cause heated discussion. It is basically impossible to continue to pry out something from her mouth. It can only be said that this woman is crazy enough.

Although it was put together, it also reflected that she played a very important role in this case.

Why did she try to hide that man?

Is the rest of the feelings over?

Or is it that she and the man actually caused the Ju Chunlou tragedy? Afraid of getting angry?

"Hey, sorry just now, I really thought you bullied her."

Yun Zhiyue patted Chen Mu on the shoulder and said apologetically, "That woman is too ruthless. I guess everyone now thinks that you want to force her."

"Don't blame you, if the bystander is replaced by me, I will also be biased towards Xue Caiqing."

Chen Mu shook his head and said with a wry smile.

This is the advantage brought by the weak. When the truth is not clear, people will always favor the weak.

Especially the other party is an extremely beautiful woman.

"What should I do now?" Yun Zhiyue asked.

"It's scaring the snake."

Chen Mu rubbed his eyebrows and said lightly, "Xue Caiqing's trouble is not only hopeless to interrogate her, I am afraid that people hiding in the dark will also understand the progress of our current investigation, which is a headache."

Chen Mu's worries are not unreasonable.

When Zhang Awei, who was out of breath, found him and said that the county grandfather asked him to go to the Yamen, Chen Mu knew that things were going in a bad direction.

And this time, it was worse than he expected.

Sure enough, as soon as he entered the county government office, Gao Yuanchun showed his ability to throw cups again.

"Chen Mu, what are you doing? Didn't you ask you to investigate the case? Why did you run to bully another girl!"

Gao Yuanchun scolded Chen Mu with a cold face.

There was also Li Qianhu sitting in the lobby of the Yamen. At this moment, he stared at Chen Mu gloomily, his eyes almost wanting to kill.

Chen Mu was quite speechless to this guy.

This has been for several days, and he still treated him as if he was killing his father and his enemy. At this point, the city government didn't know how to get into the thousands of households before.

Chen Mu cupped fist smiled bitterly: "My lord, this is actually a misunderstanding."

"Misunderstand?"

Li Qianhu sneered, "So many people on the street can testify, and they say it's a misunderstanding? Anyway, it's also a yamen official, who actually molested him in broad daylight—"

Realizing that the word ‘good family’ was improperly used on Xue Caiqing, he immediately changed his words, “It’s really a big way to molest a woman in a brothel! Are you knowing the law and breaking the law? Come on, get me arrested!”

As soon as the voice fell, several Charon rushed into it.

Gao Yuanchun said hurriedly, "Master Thousands of households, maybe there is a real misunderstanding, it is better to let Chen Mu explain it first."

"What else can be explained!"

Li Qianhu said coldly, "Although I am here this time to catch the snake monster, I also have the responsibility to rectify some of the bad manners of the bureaucrats. Chen Mu relied that he was a head-catcher and insulted women. So many onlookers still need witnesses. Explain?"

"But he was entrusted by his majesty after all..."

"Your Majesty, the official has his own account!" Li Qianhu interrupted him coldly. "Besides, it's been so many days. The so-called God's capture hasn't even made any progress. It's really a sacred grace."

Gao Yuanchun's heart sank.

Judging from Li Qianhu's statement, it is estimated that the palace man had already spoken in secret, which was a fatal blow to Chen Mu's official career.

"My lord, I went to Ju Chunlou to investigate the case, and--"

Chen Mu looked directly at Li Qianhu, "Moreover, this case is about to be solved, only the last step is left."

"Really!" Gao Yuanchun's eyes lit up.

He still highly approves of Chen Mu's ability. If he says that the case is about to be solved, it means that the case has actually been solved.

Li Qianhu frowned and said nothing.

Chen Mu did not hide it, and told Gao Yuanchun one by one the clues and speculations he had discovered so far, deliberately omitting some of them.

After listening to Chen Mu's statement, let alone Gao Yuanchun, even Li Qianhu, who had been so cold and right, was dumbfounded.

For the first time, he looked at Chen Mu with amazement.

"In this way, this Xue Caiqing is very suspicious. If the person behind the scenes is pried out of her mouth, can he find the snake demon?"

A smile appeared at the corner of Li Qianhu's mouth, and he patted the armrest ‘pop’, got up and said, “I’ll catch her now!”

Shameless, this guy is obviously going to ‘rob’ Chen Mu’s results.

"Never!"

Gao Yuanchun hurriedly stopped him, "Now Miss Xue is injured because she was'forced' by Chen Mu. If she were to be arrested at this time, I am afraid it will cause dissatisfaction among the people. They will think that our government is oppressing the people with power."

Li Qianhu stayed in place, his face uncertain.

Rumors have been the most terrifying since ancient times. Fear has won people's hearts, but they can't control people's mouths. This is indeed worthy of caution.

"Besides, the boss behind this Ju Chunlou is not simple."

"Oh? How not easy?"

Li Qianhu came to be interested.

Gao Yuanchun dipped his finger in the tea, wrote a word on the table, and saw that Li Qianhu's pupils contracted.

"It's fine if it's other women, but Miss Xue is the top card of Ju Chunlou, so think twice."

Gao Yuanchun smiled bitterly.

Li Qianhu's face was ugly: "What should I do?"

Gao Yuanchun looked at Chen Mu: "Chen Mu, do you have other ways?"

"Have!"

Chen Mu took a deep breath and said lightly, "I didn't plan to use it originally, because it's too Venerable, but now I can only use this trick."

"What's the trick?"

"Digging the grave!"
