The fate was changed, the mistress of the Hou family was slapped in the face and made money to win

Chapter 753 Women's Academy Unknown

"Yi, Yiyu..."

Zhong Yixiu almost used both her hands and feet to crawl to Zhong Yiyu's body.

Looking at the lifeless corpse in front of her, Zhong Yixiu felt cold all over and her heart was filled with pain.

"No, this is impossible, how could this happen!"

Zhong Xingyun looked at Zhong Yixiu coldly. He had no place to vent the anger and pain in his heart. He raised his leg and kicked Zhong Yixiu hard.

"How dare you come here? It's all your fault!"

Zhong Yixiu was kicked to the ground, but she quickly got up again.

She seemed not to see Zhong Xingyun, but just stared at Zhong Yiyu lying on the ground.

"Yiyu, I'm your sister, don't scare me, wake up, please wake up!"

"Your sister is dead and will never wake up again! It's all because of you. If it weren't for you, how could things become like this!" Zhong Xingyun was furious. He pulled Zhong Yixiu up from the ground and raised his hand high to hit her. However, before the slap could land, he was stopped by Pei Zhaozhi.

"Let go!" Zhong Xingyun looked at Pei Zhaozhi viciously.

Pei Zhaozhi did not let go. "Minister Zhong, this matter cannot be blamed on Miss Zhong. I know you are sad, but you should not be so angry. Miss Zhong must be sad too."

"She is sad? How can she be sad? If it weren't for her, things wouldn't have turned out like this. It's all her fault."

"Minister Zhong, I have said before that it was the murderer who harmed people, not Miss Zhong. I understand that you have just lost your daughter and you are upset, but Zhong Yixiu is also your daughter, you shouldn't do this." Pei Zhaozhi said with a frown.

"Murderer?" Zhong Xingyun shook off Pei Zhaozhi's hand and looked at him angrily. "You keep talking about the murderer, but where is the murderer? As the Minister of Justice, you are responsible for investigating this case. You should catch the murderer and rescue my daughter, but what happened? Where is the murderer?"

Pei Zhaozhi looked ashamed, lowered his head and said, "It is true that we did not investigate the case well. If Minister Zhong wants to blame me, I have no complaints. It's just that..."

Pei Zhaozhi looked at Zhong Yixiu.

"Ms. Zhong has been very anxious these past few days. She even risked her life to find the murderer. Minister Zhong shouldn't treat her like this."

When she heard the words "risking her own life", Zhong's mother, who had been crying on Zhong Yiyu's body, finally raised her head and looked at Zhong Yixiu.

"Yixue, don't be confused. You can't do such a thing as putting yourself in danger. Your sister has already been in trouble. If something happens to you again, then mother will really die!"

Zhong Yixiu did not break free from Zhong Xingyun's hand, nor did she answer Zhong's mother's words. Her eyes remained on Zhong Yiyu's face.

"Father is right. It's all my fault. If it weren't for me, Yi Yu might not have gotten into trouble."

"It's good that you know it. Why did I give birth to such a jinx like you, a thing that harms people!" Zhong Xingyun looked at Zhong Yixiu fiercely. Although he didn't raise his hand again, he still threw her to the ground.

Zhong Yixue fell to the ground, still staring blankly at Zhong Yiyu, looking at the horrific wound on her neck, and murmured: "How painful it must be."

She remembered that Yi Yu was most afraid of pain since she was a child.

When she was a child, she and Yiyu followed their mother to learn needlework. Yiyu accidentally pricked her hand with a needle, and it hurt so much that she cried. Now she has such a big wound on her neck, how painful it must be...

Tears burst out, blurring everything in front of her eyes. Zhong Yixiu raised her hand and tightly covered her heart, feeling the guilt and pain there almost drowning her whole body.

This time, Feng Li found a total of five female corpses in the forest. Except for Zhong Yiyu, the other four were women who had disappeared around the imperial city before.

The woman's family members who got the news came one after another to identify the body. The entire day today, the Dali Temple was almost filled with cries of grief.

At nightfall.

All the bodies were taken back by their families.

The autopsy results of the five bodies were also compiled and handed over to Pei Zhaozhi.

"All five women died by having their throats slit. However, there were several wounds on their wrists. According to the coroner's examination, they must have been cut on the wrists and bled before they died." Pei Zhaozhi looked at the result in front of him with a serious expression.

"Cutting the wrists to let the blood flow?" Jiang Suining and Shen Yanxi looked at each other and both sensed something unusual.

Pei Zhaozhi took a deep breath, as if he smelled a faint smell of blood in the air.

"It seems that this is definitely not simple human trafficking. They kidnapped so many women and cut their wrists to let their blood. There must be other motives."

"I asked Feng Li, the forest is not remote and people often pass by it on weekdays. Burying the five bodies in the forest is not a proper solution." Shen Yanxi said.

Jiang Suining frowned, "You mean to say that the murderer might have deliberately buried the body in the forest and then let someone find it?"

"I'm just guessing. After all, there is no evidence for the time being." Shen Yanxi thought for a while, "However, more than a dozen women are missing, but only five bodies have been found. I don't know if the remaining people have not been found yet, or there is still a possibility that they are still alive."

"I hope it's the latter, but..."

Jiang Suining didn't finish the rest of his words, but they all knew it clearly in their hearts.

I'm afraid the hope of survival is very slim.

Pei Zhaozhi has already sent people to search around the forest and other places in the imperial city.

After one night, another burial site was discovered and six bodies were dug out.

When this news came out, everyone thought that the chances of survival for the remaining women who had not been discovered were naturally even smaller.

There was a lot of discussion in the imperial city.

The families of the victims cried bitterly.

In the court, Emperor Xiao was also furious and ordered the Ministry of Justice and the Dali Temple to find the murderer.

Just when the court was having a headache over this case, another piece of news suddenly spread:

Women should be obedient and stay at home, otherwise they will not be targeted by the murderer. Now, the most inappropriate thing in the imperial city is the women's academy, so the women in the women's academy may be the biggest target of the murderer.

The news spread very quickly and spread throughout the entire imperial city within a day or two.

Soon after, some people started to talk about the unknown status of the women's college. Their words showed dissatisfaction with the women's college and they believed that the women's college should be closed immediately.

"The victim is obviously a woman, but in the end they still blame her, saying it's because she's restless. It's ridiculous!" Wei Yao was very angry in the women's academy.

Lu Yan felt the same way, but in addition to being angry, she was more worried. "The news spread so quickly, I'm afraid someone is deliberately pushing it behind the scenes."
