Su Qing walked into the mortuary. The white spirit banner rustled in the wind, and the paper money on the ground flew all over the house. It was especially gloomy as if she had come to the netherworld.

There were a few thin wooden coffins in the courier station. The other coffins were parked at the side. Only one black wooden coffin was parked in the middle of the memorial hall. In front of the coffin was a brazier. The wind had blown away the ashes inside. Zhong Yong knelt in front of the coffin and cried loudly. Xiaoying was also crying beside the coffin.

Su Qing walked toward the coffin with difficulty. She clenched her fists tightly and suppressed the overwhelming sadness in her heart.

Ji Shuisheng rushed to the coffin. Under the dim light, he saw the G.o.dmother’s ghastly pale and bruised face.

Ji Shuisheng felt his heart being squeezed by a pair of big hands. He knelt in front of the coffin and kowtowed to Madam Li.

“G.o.dmother, your son came back late.”

Su Qing was calmer and more rational than them. Now was not the time to cry. She wiped her tears away and walked to the coffin to carefully examine her G.o.dmother’s body.

To save time, Su Qing instructed Xiao Qi, “Xiao Qi, investigate the cause of G.o.dmother’s death!

“A heavy object hit the back of the head. The skull was shattered, and there was internal bleeding.”

Xiao Qi was also very sad. After spending a few days with Madam Li, she liked Madam Li’s personality. She was always as gentle as the spring breeze and was his dearest grandmother.

Xiao Qi didn’t even show filial piety to her grandmother, and she died so miserably?

Wuuuu…

Xiao Qi lay on the system’s ground, covering her eyes and crying.

The back of her head was injured? Was she ambushed?

After Su Qing learned the cause of G.o.dmother’s death, she reached out and lifted her head. She touched the back of her head and found a huge b.u.mp with frozen blood.

“G.o.dmother was killed by someone hitting the back of her head.”

Su Qing said to Ji Shuisheng. Ji Shuisheng’s eyes were filled with anger as he stood up. He wanted to find Xing Ruhai and Qiu Yongkang to ask them who killed his G.o.dmother.

“I’ll go with you.”

Su Qing also wanted to find out who killed G.o.dmother, so she suggested going with Ji Shuisheng.

Ji Shuisheng saw Zhong Yong’s hammerhead pounding on the ground, and he said to Su Qing,

“Stay here and accompany Zhong Yong.”

Su Qing looked at Zhong Yong. The child was too upset. His head was bleeding from the kowtow, and he was still kowtowing. Was he trying to kill himself? “Zhong Yong, calm down.”

Su Qing went over to hold Zhong Yong back. Zhong Yong looked at Su Qing, crying pitifully like a child.

“Master, I don’t have a mother anymore. My mother is dead, sob… It’s all my fault. If 1 had stayed at home with her, Mother wouldn’t have died. It’s my fault. I’m unfilial.”

Zhong Yong raised his hand and slapped himself hard. He refused to stop even though the corner of his mouth was bleeding.

Su Qing grabbed his wrist and scolded him sternly,

“Can crying bring G.o.dmother back to life? We have to avenge her and not let G.o.dmother die silently.”

“Revenge, revenge, who killed my mother? Which b.a.s.t.a.r.d killed my mother?” Zhong Yong heard his master’s words and stopped hurting himself. He jumped up and ran out of the door. His thunderous roar resounded throughout Mo City. Ji Shuisheng could not stop his tears from flowing when he heard his good brother’s roar. He wiped his tears away and strode towards Qiu Yongkang’s house.

He handed Mo City over to Qiu Yongkang and Cheng Yu when he left. How did they manage the city?

Ji Shuisheng walked to Qiu Yongkang’s door and saw that the lights had been turned off. Thinking that Old Master Qiu was too old to be frightened, he retracted his raised hand and asked Cheng Yu about it.

He turned around and saw Qiu Yongkang dragging his tired feet back. Ji Shuisheng took two big steps forward to welcome him.

“Yongkang, how did G.o.dmother die?”

Qiu Yongkang was unsure what he was thinking, but he was shocked by Ji Shuisheng’s sudden appearance. He only heaved a sigh of relief when he saw it was Ji Shuisheng.

“Shuisheng, you’re finally back.”

Qiu Yongkang looked at Ji Shuisheng as if he had found his savior and held his arms excitedly.

“How did G.o.dmother die?”

Ji Shuisheng did not have time for small talk and asked anxiously.

” 1 don’t know. There were three murder cases in the city two days ago and yesterday. One was a p.a.w.nshop owner, one was a refugee who just moved to Mo City, and the last was your G.o.dmother. A sharp weapon hit them in the back of the head. Commander Cheng and 1 guessed that it was the group of refugees who had recently entered the city who couldn’t survive and came out to rob. Unfortunately, your G.o.dmother became a target.”

Qiu Yongkang’s voice was very heavy. It was obvious that he was also very sad. He returned late because he discussed this with Cheng Yushan and Xing Ruhai. Qiu Yongkang lowered his head in self-reproach,”

“Shuisheng, I’m sorry. You handed Mo City to me to manage, but 1 didn’t handle it well.”

“Let’s not talk about this first. Tell me where G.o.dmother was killed. She was a woman who didn’t even go out. How did she encounter this unexpected disaster?”

Ji Shuisheng stopped Qiu Yongkang from apologizing. It was useless to apologize now; he had to find the truth.

“In the alley by the winery.”

Qiu Yongkang took a deep breath and explained the situation when Madam Li was discovered.

“Yesterday morning, someone pa.s.sed by the alley and saw your G.o.dmother lying in a pool of blood. When we rushed over, we found that her body had already stiffened. It seemed that she had been dead for a while. Many people watching the show destroyed the scene so we couldn’t find any useful clues.” “Winery? Why did G.o.dmother go to the winery?”

Ji Shuisheng didn’t understand. Su Qing had already moved the winery away; it was only an empty house now. Why did G.o.dmother still go there?

Qiu Yongkang shook his head,

“I don’t know either. I’m afraid only your G.o.dmother knows. Maybe she wants to go over and take a look at Su Qing? Or perhaps she hoped that Su Qing would return to open the winery?”

“Are the other two corpses also at the mortuary?”

Su Qing’s voice sounded from behind Qiu Yongkang.

Qiu Yongkang turned to look at Su Qing and nodded,

“Yes, they’re all at the mortuary! We bought Zhong Yongniang’s coffin separately. It’s different from the other coffins. However, the conditions in Mo City are limited, so we only bought a black wooden coffin.”

Su Qing glanced at him and saw Qiu Yongkang’s self-reproach and exhaustion. He had also lost a lot of weight. It was obvious that this matter had taken a toll on him.

“Thank you, Yongkang.”

Ji Shuisheng patted Yongkang’s shoulder. Yongkang was thoughtful enough to buy his G.o.dmother a coffin so she wouldn’t die too miserably.

“It’s all my fault for not looking after the place.”

Yongkang lowered his head in guilt. He looked very sad, and his voice was choked with sobs.

“How am I going to explain this to Zhong Yong?”

“No one wants to. Go back and rest first!”

Ji Shuisheng comforted Yongkang. No one could have prevented this. He would not have left if he had known that his G.o.dmother would be in danger.

“Alright, you guys rest early too.”

Qiu Yongkang nodded. He really couldn’t take it anymore.

On the way back to the memorial hall, Su Qing and Ji Shuisheng did not speak. Su Qing blamed herself and regretted taking Zhong Yong away. His G.o.dmother would not have died if he had not taken him away.

“Shuisheng, why did G.o.dmother go to the winery?”

Su Qing couldn’t understand. She had already returned and stayed at G.o.dmother’s house for a night. G.o.dmother couldn’t have gone to the winery to look at things and think of her..
