Detective Ghost Empress

227 A hoax

Can you all check my new book Hot Bloodsuckers’ Obsession? Pretty please.

” My beautiful hair,” Liu Fei Fei looked at the small patch on the back of her head, even though the small patch was not visible, Liu Fei Fei who was obsessed with her beauty noticed it at once. The second Liu Hui Ying took away her magic spell, Liu Fei Fei crawled over to where her body was lying in the coffin and then crouched by her own coffin as she shed tears of regret and blame. ” You ruined my beautiful face, if anyone sees this bald spot they will surely call me ugly.”

” Like they have been praising you till now,” Jia Li muttered under her breath as she examined the scrapes of skin that she has taken from Liu Fei Fei’s body under the microscope since Liu Fei Fei died with her head being pushed into the water, she wanted to see if the murder left anything behind.

While Jia Li was looking at the small scrapes of skin Liu Hui Ying was looking at the condition of Liu Fei Fei’s body. This was her first time taking such a close look at Liu Fei Fei’s body, she did not see Liu Fei Fei’s body earlier because Dowager Empress was right next to her, which was why she did not see the weirdness of the swelling of Liu Fei Fei’s body, Liu Hui Ying’s eyes glanced at the figure that was lying in the coffin and then carefully lifted Liu Fei Fei’s robe such that she could see her legs.

Her gaze dropped to Liu Fei Fei’s legs and her gaze turned sombre as she looked at Liu Fei Fei’s legs but as soon as she raised the white robe that Liu Fei Fei was wearing she heard a shriek behind her as Liu Fei Fei came running and then immediately caused her to drop the edge of the robe that she was holding in her hands.

” What…what are you doing? Why did you raise my robe?” Liu Fei Fei hasn’t forgotten how Liu Hui Ying tried to hit on her just a few hours ago which was why she did not think that the woman was trying to investigate her death at all, instead, she thought that Liu Hui Ying was trying to take advantage of her body when she could not move.

Liu Hui Ying was slightly annoyed when she saw that Liu Fei Fei interrupted her examination but when she noticed the wariness and subtle suspicion in Liu Fei Fei’s eyes she could not help but get amused, was this woman still thinking that she was interested in her?

If it was someone else then they might have used their heads to think that Liu Hui Ying was just trying to tease them but Liu Fei Fei whose narcissism did not know any limits really thought that Liu Hui Ying was interested in her which was why she was glaring at Liu Hui Ying like she was a perverted hooligan trying to take advantage of her dainty body.

” Are you really going to hide such a beautiful body from me?” Seeing that Liu Fei Fei has been fooled by her Liu Hui Ying couldn’t help but tease Liu Fei Fei a bit more as she looked at the latter and leaned her body closer to Liu Fei Fei’s soul. ” I couldn’t see you when you were alive, why don’t you let me take a closer look now that you are leaving me forever hmm?”

.....

” You…you…!” Liu Fei Fei was speechless, she did not understand whether or not she should call Liu Hui Ying a pervert or a monster who was lusting after a dead person but before she could say anything, she heard Jia Li speaking from behind.

” All right, that is enough teasing on your part today, Hui Ying,” Jia Li walked forward with the report that she has come up with and then stopped Liu Hui Ying who was teasing Liu Fei Fei like a bully. She glanced at Liu Hui Ying and then turned her gaze to Liu Fei Fei before saying, ” Don’t trust anything that she says, you will end up losing your life if you listen to her talk. Not that there is much but … you get what I am saying right? This was how she got all of us to work for her…make sure that you don’t fall for her antics.”

” You speak as if I am making you work for free,” Liu Hui Ying rolled her eyes as she walked over to where Jia Li left a very stunned Liu Fei Fei behind. ” I pay for everything that you three do, do you think that without me you three would have been able to stay in the human world for this long?”

Under Liu Hui Ying’s subtle reminder, Jia Li rolled her eyes but she did not say anything and then placed her report on the table that was sitting in the centre of the autopsy lab. ” I detected a few traces of nail colour,” she told Liu Hui Ying as she showed the small scraps of red colour that has been enlarged under the lens of the microscope. ” I think it is very clear that the person behind her death is one of the maids who work in her courtyard or any other maid who was sent from another courtyard.”

“How can you be so sure that it’s a maid? What if it’s a concubine?” Li Gang asked as he looked at the red dots in the middle of the pale skin molecules. ” What if it is one of the concubines? I mean you cannot deduce that it’s a maid just because there is some red nail colour left on the back of this one’s neck.” He tipped his chin at Liu Fei Fei who was still using her brain really hard.

” Because the quality of the red colour is really bad,” Jia Li replied calmly as she looked at the report. “It is not used by Concubines but the maids, I am certain that it was done by a maid.” After speaking she turned to look at Liu Hui Ying and asked, ” What do you think?”

Liu Hui Ying stared at the report with a blank expression before she spat only one word, “It’s a hoax.”
