Dong Yue and Lin Daniu held a simple funeral for the child.

It stands to reason that in such a situation as a child, the child cannot be buried immediately, but the child's mother insisted that they had no choice but to agree.

After finishing these, it was already dark.

Dong Yue looked at the woman who was kneeling in front of the grave and was still crying, her heart felt sour.

Seeing this scene, Lin Daniu couldn't say anything.

Leading the crowd to wait.

As the sky gradually darkened, he was still a little worried. If the tragedy happened again, wouldn't he

Just at this time, the woman fainted from grief.

Lin Daniu ordered the woman to be carried back first.

Originally, there were few men in the village, but now women are basically taking care of their children at home. There has been no news from men for several years, which is even more tormenting for the women at home. The ox arranged for a man to watch over the woman.

Dong Yue stood where she was, looking at the woman who was carried away, her heart trembled.

Watching the people walk away, when she was about to leave, she saw something fall from the lady's hand.

At first she saw something in Madam's hand, she didn't pay attention to it at first, but now it was getting dark, someone nearby lit a torch, the light from the torch made Dong Yue see that the falling thing seemed to be a piece of cloth, but... There are gold glitters on it.

These are all ordinary farmers. It is good enough to have enough food at home. How can there be such extravagant things?

Thinking, Dong Yue walked away from the crowd, she walked over to pick up the cloth that fell on the ground.

Pick it up and look, it should be torn from something.

"Ma'am?" Qing Lan also saw the difference in this piece of cloth.

Dong Yue looked over.

Qinglan explained, "This should be something from the palace."

Dong Yue carefully looked at the cloth in her hand, and then at Qing Lan.

Zuo Qing was also curious, how could Qinglan conclude that this cloth is from the palace?

Seeing no one around, Qinglan told what she knew.

"When I was in the Han family, I saw the eunuchs in the palace come to look for Mr. Han. The clothes on them are basically the same color as this piece of fabric, but I don't know what the pattern means?"

"How do you say it?" Dong Yue didn't know much about the imperial palace, and she didn't know much about Qing Lan's explanation.

"The servant girl knows that the ranks of the eunuchs in the palace are obvious, and their clothes and embroidery are also very different. The gold thread on it should be of a high rank."

Seeing this, Dong Yue put it away carefully.

Since it is something from the palace, how can a peasant woman have this thing?

Suddenly thought of the lost child?

Could it be that when someone started to attack a child, the child realized the danger and acted like this in a hurry?

Think about it, think it's possible.

Soon, Dong Yue set her sights on the child's mother.

Surely she could explain it to herself.

With doubts in my heart, I returned to Liu's house.

There was an unexpected situation today, which did not prevent the arrival of the child.

When Dong Yue returned to Liu's Mansion, Steward Li explained the situation in detail, and Dong Yue walked quickly to the Paradise.

Far away, bursts of laughter were heard.

When I came to the door, I saw a group of children playing with Liu Ru.

They were playing eagle and chicken.

Little children don't know the dangers around them. They can eat and have fun here, and they forget about homesickness.

After watching them play from a distance for a while, Dong Yue turned around and went into the kitchen without disturbing her.

I thought I should make something delicious for the children.

Entering the kitchen, Chen Ma had already brought the maids to get busy. Dong Yue walked in and was very satisfied with the prepared ingredients.

They can do well without directing.

When Chen Ma saw Madam coming, she quickly came to her, "Madam?"

"You have worked hard."

"Slaves don't work hard." Chen Ma replied with a smile.

"Prepare some small snacks, but not too many."

Dong Yue knew that the conditions of the farmers were not very good, and they suddenly ate too much, which was not easy to digest and was not conducive to the growth of children.

"Yes, the servant girl knows."

"Also, prepare some soup."

"Yes, ma'am."

Dong Yue told Chen Ma again, "Try to make steamed buns smaller these days, so that children can eat them more conveniently."

After Dong Yue explained and left, the maids in the kitchen surrounded Chen Ma, "Chen Ma, Madam is so kind!"

Chen Ma took a look at the maidservants, and took the opportunity to warn them, "Remember, our wife is kind-hearted, and we slaves should not be sorry to the master."

"Yes." The six servant girls answered in unison.

Mama Chen smiled.

She has a shallow relationship with the child, looking at the maids with these six signs, she treats them as her own daughters.

The more you look at it, the more satisfied you are.

Dong Yue returned to the backyard, took a simple hot bath, changed her clothes, held the torn piece of fabric in her hand, and looked at it carefully.

Not long after, Butler Li came and said that it was Catcher Ma.

Dong Yue immediately went to the front hall when she heard it.

In the front hall, Ma Tutou was walking back and forth anxiously. When he heard the movement and saw Dong Yue, he hurriedly took out the dossier that he ordered someone to copy not long ago.

"Madam, this is their file."

Dong Yue held it in her hand, and looked at it carefully.

A stack of papers was originally weightless, but Dong Yue knew that each piece of paper was a small life, and she suddenly felt heavy in her hands.

Looking at it again and again, her heart was extremely heavy.

Ma Tutou stood beside him without saying a word.

After Dong Yue finished reading, Ma Tutou asked, "Did Lady Dong find anything?"

"Can I see this job?"

Ma Tutou was a little embarrassed.

Stealing the dossier is no longer what it should be, goodbye Zuo Zuo, this matter cannot be covered up.

Thinking of Mr. Chen of Dali Temple, who is strict in handling affairs, he was alerted all over his body.

Dong Yue could see the embarrassment of this person. In fact, what she wanted to see was the children's bodies. Thinking of the children who were buried today, those children might have already been buried.

Death is already a misfortune, and she doesn't want to dig another grave.

"I want to know if so many cases are committed by the same person." Dong Yue saw his embarrassment and expressed her thoughts.

"Is it necessary to see Wu Zuo?"

Dong Yue thought for a while, then said, "It's better to see the corpse."

"It's easy." Ma Tutou heaved a sigh of relief.

"Not buried?"

"No, the case is not closed yet, and the children's bodies are placed on the village."

When Dong Yue heard this, she couldn't wait any longer, and told Qing Lan that she left with Zuo Qing and Ma Tutou.

On the way there, Ma Tutou gave a general idea, hoping that Dong Yue would be prepared. When he arrived at the village, Dong Yue didn't respond when he saw the corpses.

After seeing the bodies of several victims, she gave an affirmative answer, "There are three murderers."

"Miss Dong, are you sure?"

"Yeah." Dong Yue has always been serious about her professional field and such a serious matter.

Glancing at the cold corpses one by one, she touched her heart and couldn't control the tears from streaming down.

Zuo Qing's concentration was a little weaker, he took a few glances, then went outside and vomited wildly,

She didn't eat anything all day, she just retched.

Just after a little improvement, I suddenly heard footsteps in the distance.

Zuo Qing didn't care about anything else, and hurried in, "Ma'am, someone is here."
