Chapter 185 Xu Rou's Confidence
Chapter 185 Xu Rou's Confidence
Hibiscus Garden.
"Brother Zhao." Huang Ye walked closer, and Xiao Zhao lowered his voice: "One of our shop's clerks lives in a big mountain outside the city. He knows the most suitable place." He was talking about the burial place.
"Is it reliable?" In fact, Huang Ye didn't want more people to know about this. She was more inclined to throw the body into the river to make it look like a vendetta.
Xiao Zhao scratched his head: "He seems to be quite reliable, but I don't know what he will be like in the future."
"Then there's no need." Huang Ye didn't dare to bet on people's minds: "You didn't tell him, did you?"
"I just said I wanted to visit his home." Xiao Zhao is now doing things more steadily.
"That's good. Let's get them out now. I'll let Qingyuer get in the car and pretend that we're going out to visit relatives. After we get out of the city, find a fast-flowing river and throw them in. Just be careful not to be discovered." These two people are the trump cards in her hand at the moment, and the ones she trusts the most. She doesn't feel at ease using anyone else.
Xiao Zhao nodded, and Huang Ye welcomed him to the bedroom. Lu Dou followed behind in a panic. The young lady was too bold. How could this outsider enter the bedroom casually? She had to guard the door and not let anyone see her.
"Ludou, come in too." Hearing the lady calling her, Ludou walked in and closed the door. Suddenly, her mind went blank and she saw...
Green Bean rubbed his eyes. This time he was not mistaken. He saw Xiao Zhao dragging out a corpse wrapped in a quilt from under the young lady's bed. The corpse was covered in blood, with a hole on the face and one eye missing. It looked extremely terrifying.
Seeing that Lu Dou was incredulous but not particularly scared, Huang Ye was very satisfied. In order to be her Dou'er's maid, this kind of calmness was necessary.
"Lung Bean, go find a piece of cloth to wrap the body." The body was no longer bleeding, and the quilt was too thick to fit in the secret compartment of the carriage.
Although Lu Dou was a little panicked, she still responded and ran out. After a while, she brought back a piece of coarse cloth, which was prepared to be used as a rag in the small kitchen.
Green Bean spread the coarse cloth on the ground, Xiao Zhao and Hong Dou lifted the body and wrapped it on the rag: "Green Bean, guard the door in case someone suddenly comes back." Huang Ye ordered, and Green Bean ran to the gate of the garden. This mission was too important. It would be terrible if she was discovered, so she had to guard the door well.
Huang Ye sighed again, fortunately the killer was thin enough and it was not difficult to put him in the secret compartment of the carriage. Qing Yuer happened to come over at this time, holding some things for New Year's greetings in her hands. She bowed when she saw Huang Ye, then got on the carriage, which drove straight out of the gate and headed out of the city.
"Miss, will Xu Rou arrange someone to investigate? It will be terrible if she finds out." Hongdou asked Huangye. Although Ludou didn't understand what happened, he looked at Huangye worriedly after hearing what Hongdou said.
"This assassination was just something Xu Rou thought of on the spur of the moment. She didn't plan ahead, and she was too confident in her killer. She didn't even think about the possibility of failure, and..."
"The second branch of the Bo family has too low a status in the mansion, and she has no one to use. Even if she knows that the assassination has failed, she can't do anything." Huang Ye had thought of this a long time ago.
Changning Bofu.
Xu Rou got up early in the morning and walked around the room excitedly. The bitch Huang Ziye was dead last night and the news should be out soon. She never thought that the assassination would fail. For a killer from Wuyou Pavilion, killing a young lady was as easy as crushing an ant. Even if the girl next to her had some kung fu, she was just a wild one. What use could she be in front of the killer?
"Qiu Die, is there any news from outside?" Xu Rou didn't know how many times she had asked.
"Miss, no." Qiu Die said the same thing, but she was very nervous. Her benefactor was such a good person, she hoped nothing would happen to him.
"How do Nanny Li's people do their job? Didn't they go to the gate of the Huang Mansion to take a look?" Xu Rou was a little angry. Nanny Li was also useless. If there was no one else available, she would not have used her, and she would not be so anxiously waiting for news now.
"Could it be that the person failed to succeed?" Qiu Die guessed.
"Impossible, the killer from Wuyou Pavilion wouldn't be so useless." Xu Rou was very confident about this. It was possible that the Huang family was secretly hiding the news and was thinking of a solution.
"Or... I'll go and take a look myself." Qiu Die asked tentatively.
"You can't go. You are my personal maid. If someone finds you, it will be easy for people to associate you with me." With Qiu Die's performance last night in mind, Xu Rou spoke much more gently to Qiu Die.
"Then I'll go out and see if Nanny Li has returned." Qiu Die was not too disappointed. Xu Rou would not let her leave easily.
"Go ahead." It was almost time for lunch, and the news should have gotten out by now.
Qiu Die walked out from the back door and saw Qing Yuer's men wandering nearby. She pretended to find Nanny Li and went over to him, only to hear him say quickly and quietly, "The killer is dead, the lady is fine." Then he continued wandering around as if nothing had happened.
Qiu Die did not move. She had been worried since last night, fearing that something might have happened to her benefactor. She even thought that if her benefactor died, she would go to the government to report Xu Rou and make sure the whole city knew about it. She, Qiu Die, would not let her get away with it. At worst, she would die, and then she would go find her benefactor and have him stay by her side in the next life.
Nanny Li ran over from a distance, sweating profusely. She saw Qiu Die from afar and knew that the young lady was waiting for her news, but there was no movement in the Huang Mansion and she couldn't get in. Even if she could get in, she couldn't ask if the young lady was dead. She was afraid that she didn't want to live anymore.
"How's it going? Any news?" Seeing Nanny Li coming over, Qiu Die, who had come to her senses, asked her hypocritically. She felt relieved now and was especially kind to Nanny Li.
