Chapter 242 - 242 A clue



” What are you doing?” Earlier he came to question Liu Hui Ying the same question, he wanted to ask her what exactly was she doing to her brother but he could no longer ask the same question as domineeringly as he wanted to instead now he was looking at her like some little subordinate who could not understand what was going and could only look for his superiors.

Liu Hui Ying raised her head and turned to look at Zhai Heng before she pointed to herself and asked, ” Are you talking to me?”

” Can you see someone else here, your majesty?” Zhai Heng asked while a nerve throbbed in his forehead, this woman ….she was really too much clearly, the two of them were the only ‘living’ ones in this room, who else was he supposed to ask if not her?

” Oh, I thought with how much you hate me, you were asking my ghosts,” Liu Hui Ying casually replied as if she was talking about her assistants without the word ‘ghosts’ added in front of the very term….:)

Zhai Heng was speechless as he looked at the woman, though he has never made a secret of his dislike towards her but he has always been upfront about his feelings towards a lot of people but never has he seen someone so…. petty as her. Will she get constipated without dragging him down and answering his questions politely without the unusual sarcastic remarks?

” I was not asking the ghosts, your majesty,” even though he did not get the reply that he wanted, Zhai Heng still maintained basic cordiality on the surface as he repeated his question. ” I was asking you, what are you doing by sprinkling this powdery substance on the floor and using it to make the foot marks from the past few days appear? Are you going to look for the culprit with the help of these?”

He was curious as to how it was possible for Yin Zhu to look for the culprit with the help of the foot marks on the floor.

” Hmm, I am,” she responded without even looking in his direction as she placed her knuckles under her chin as she looked at the footmarks and continued speaking, ” The person who killed Liu Fei Fei was someone who stayed inside the room throughout the entire night before they killed Liu Fei Fei, which means they only went out the room just one time and that was to take Liu Fei Fei’s half unconscious body out and then push her into the lake, which meant that they never needed to walk back inside the room.”

.....

Zhai Heng has already heard about the in and outs of the matter, but he still could not believe that someone would kill a woman who was weak and vulnerable like this, no matter how arrogant and despicable Liu Fei Fei was, she was a human and no one deserved to be killed as such and that too in a manner that was so depressing and cruel.

” How can you be certain that the culprit never walked inside the room again, your majesty?” Zhai Heng questioned, he wanted to know how Liu Hui Ying came to that conclusion. If the person who killed Liu Fei Fei was a maid who worked in this very courtyard then it would only make sense for her to come inside and act like she was startled by the incident.

” Because, according to the testimony, the first person who saw Liu Fei Fei’s body was none other than nanny Cheng but Nanny Cheng is old and she does not seem to be strong enough to drag a body out and then shove Liu Fei Fei’s head inside the pond, even if she did it Liu Fei Fei would have been able to fight against her,” Liu Hui Ying carefully broke the entire incident in front of Zhai Heng while she continued to look at the foot marks on the floor.

She walked over to the trail of foot marks that only went out and did not return again inside the room and continued to speak, ” What’s more, you are not aware of the psychological mind play that goes inside the head of those who are willing to kill anyone for the sake of some benefits, revenge or any other motive behind their actions.”

” Do I even need to understand those criminals?” Zhai Heng looked at Liu Hui Ying with a mocking sneer, why will he even try to understand such filthy people who only knew how to ruin others’ life?

” You need to,” Liu Hui Ying, on the other hand, replied as she turned to look at him, the sky was slowly turning dark and the moon that was hiding under the glow of the setting sun was now shining up in the sky causing Liu Hui Ying’s figure to be illuminated by the silvery moonlight. ” If you don’t even understand how the mind of a killer works, then how are you going to draw conclusions regarding a case? When investigating something you need to think about the case in the same manner as the killer.”

She paused and then walked over to where the pond which was neither too big nor too small was and then crouched down as she followed the trail that was left behind by the killer and swiped her fingers on the wet grass before she said, ” Killers are naively arrogant, they only kill after going through their plans again and again before finally choosing to act on it. Their arrogance comes from the pride that their plan is wonderful, which is why ….” She pulled out an old hairpin that has been snapped into half, its red and old paint chipped and broken. Before she turned to look at Zhai Heng and added, ” They often miss the important things.”—————-
