Chapter 293 - 293: Find the Grave

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

“Why can’t it be resolved? An eye for an eye, a life for a life, a debt for a debt! You’ve taken my son’s life, so you either give his life back or compensate me with money! I’m a poor, lonely widow, and my only son used to support me. Now that he’s gone, if you don’t compensate me, I’ll go to the county magistrate and file a complaint against you! I’ll accuse you of disregard for human life!”

She was fierce, her eyes red, and she seemed determined to go down with Su Yingxue.

But this only fueled Su Yingxue’s suspicion. She took a pen and paper, quickly wrote down two words, and presented them to the old lady. “Do you recognize these characters?”

The old lady, coming from a humble background and having endured many hardships, had never learned to read or write. She angrily tore the paper apart. “I don’t recognize them! Don’t think that knowing a few words will allow you to bully us! We’re not easy to bully! We’ll go tell Heavenly Lord.”

“Is that so?” Su Yingxue raised an eyebrow. Illiterate as she was, the old lady could still use words like disregard for human life.

This made Su Yingxue suspect that the old lady might indeed have a powerful protector.

She instructed Manager Qi to find the old lady a place to stay. Then, she and Zi Wei went to the village where the old lady lived to conduct an investigation.

Upon arriving in the village, Su Yingxue observed the dire poverty of the old lady’s home. The house was bare, and even the walls leaked wind. For a family in such a situation, a member suffering from tuberculosis was indeed a terrible catastrophe.

She couldn’t help but feel sympathy.

However, she couldn’t find the corpse of the old lady’s son in their home. She initially thought the old lady might be hiding it.

Searching the surroundings of the house, she couldn’t detect the smell of a corpse.

In contrast, Zi Wei disappeared for a while and then returned with information. “Found it.”

“Found the corpse?” Su Yingxue inquired.

Zi Wei nodded and led her to a hill outside the village. There were dozens of graves here. Most likely, the villagers had died and were buried here. Moreover, they were buried in an irregular pattern. Graves of all sizes were scattered all over the place.

Zi Wei brought her to a grave. There was no tombstone in this grave. There was a stick stuck in the grave, and a piece of cloth was wrapped around the stick. It looked lonely.

Pointing at the grave, Su Yingxue asked, “Is this the grave of the old lady’s son? How can you be sure?”

“The cloth on the grave is from her house.” Zi Wei still held a piece of cloth torn from a bedsheet in the old lady’s house. Su Yingxue compared it with the cloth on the stick and confirmed they were from the same piece.

She marveled, “You notice such small details?”

Zi Wei’s expression remained impassive as he replied, “Yes, for the most part.”

He was brief in his responses, but Su Yingxue understood that it was a fundamental skill for an assassin. When it came to tracking, investigating, and observing, Zi Wei excelled in being meticulous and quick.

She had only spent a short time in that room, yet Zi Wei found the grave of the old lady’s son promptly.

However, she couldn’t bring herself to desecrate someone else’s grave. It was an immoral act she couldn’t contemplate, even if she were capable of doing it.

Returning to the manor with Zi Wei, Su Yingxue couldn’t help but furrow her brows.

Zhilan came to tell her that Chu Yihan had sent someone over. He had let someone prepare a new dish tonight and invited Su Yingxue over to eat.

Although Su Yingxue was hungry, she was still thinking about the clinic and was not in the mood to go to Chu Yihan’s invitation.

Anticipating her response, Chu Yihan arrived at the Marquis’s Manor, his cold demeanor radiating authority. Without a word, he picked her up and took her to the Ninth Prince’s Mansion.

Su Yingxue sat in front of a table of delicacies and sighed helplessly. “Your Highness, I don’t have the mood to eat with you today.. The matter at the clinic hasn’t been resolved yet!”
