Detective Ghost Empress

284 Decapitated

Seeing that Liu Fei Fei have calmed down, Liu Hui Ying turned her attention to Ji Meng. She really could not stand his smug face and almost slapped the man, was he really this smug because he got caught and killed three women? No, he was smug because he thought that he was very smart and made everyone chase after him.

He who has been nothing but an invisible person in his house ignored by all actually caused the entire imperial palace to turn upside down, the reason was just as simple. In his head what he did was not wrong —— after all, Liu Fei Fei killed someone and Consort Su was in cahoots with her when they were drowning the maid called Xiao Bai, so what if he killed them?

Slapping him was not enough, since he thought that he was justified in what he did, then why not rip the last shred of hope in his heart?

” Do you think that after doing this you will go to heaven?” Liu Hui Ying asked as she looked down at the man, who smiled and nodded. ” Yes, I killed someone who killed an innocent woman, no matter what… even if I tortured her there is nothing wrong with it because I was right till the end.”

” Wrong,” she opened her hands behind her when she felt a cold breeze waft past her and then caught hold of the old letters that Jia Li has brought with her and then turned to look at the man as she brought those letters in front of her. ” Do you know what these are?”

For the first time, she noticed genuine confusion cover Ji Meng’s eyes and then opened the letter that she asked Jia Li to bring over with her and said, ” The little white moonlight of yours was nothing but a shallow woman, she stayed with you only because someone asked her to but the truth was that she was already in love with the physician who worked in Zhang family as for you … I don’t know where you really fit in the equation.”

” You are lying.” Ji Meng’s psychology has been always simple, when he was dragged to the Ji family by his mother and was pushed around by his legitimate siblings, he started to firmly believe that he was the one who was in the right while everyone else was in the wrong.

Slowly, he started to incline towards the idea of getting justice by taking the evil ones down. He could not attack his brothers who were always surrounded by guards and were heavily protected which was why he turned his attention to Liu Fei Fei and Su Xuelo, he thought that the two women were the ones who killed the woman whom he loved with all his heart and they were the ones who ruined her, so it was only right for him to kill them.

Once this idea morphed in his head, he started to make plans —— but when he killed Liu Fei Fei and caused everyone’s attention to turn in his direction, he was exhilarated.

.....

He was overjoyed with the fact that everyone was finally chasing after him, not his elder brother who was the head of the crime investigation department nor the younger one who became the top scholar in the country but him.

And with his stubborn belief that what he was doing was right, he thought that he was doing the right thing but now this man was telling him that he was not in the right? How was that even possible?

Ji Meng immediately shook his head and glared at the man as he said, ” You are lying to me!”

He shouted at Liu Hui Ying, who only dropped the letter that she was holding in her hands to Ji Meng and said coldly, ” Read it before you speak.”

Ji Meng stared at the man in front of him with a cold glint in his eyes but he still picked up the letter and started reading, the more he read …the more his eyes widened and before he even finished reading the letter he turned to look at Ji Mo and opened his mouth wanting to say something——

But before he could say a word, Ji Mo who understood his gaze immediately looked at the man who was behind Ji Mo and nodded. The man understood Ji Mo’s sign and before anyone could comprehend what was happening—— a wretched scream echoed in the building of the crime investigation department.

Liu Hui Ying who was the closest to Ji Meng almost got slashed by the sword that appeared out of nowhere and because she was not prepared she almost stumbled back and fell on her bottom but then someone caught her wrist which was covered with her sleeve and pulled her back.

Liu Hui Ying’s face got buried in a soft fabric with a familiar scent and she blinked her eyes not understanding what happened but then she smelled the scent of blood and understood what happened just now.

She pushed Zhai Tianyu away from her and turned to look at the man who has cut Ji Meng’s head off after glaring at Zhai Tianyu who was standing beside him. She turned to look at the decapitated body and the blood spilling out of the neck of Ji Meng and pursed her lips, she did not expect that the Ji family will be so ruthless while abandoning a chess piece that they have used.

Now that Ji Meng was dead no matter what she said nothing will change after all Ji Meng was gone and who was going to confess the rest of the truth? It was not that she could summon Ji Meng’s soul right?

Liu Hui Ying looked at the two figures dressed in black and white robes dragging a soul that hardly looked human with dark fumes covering its entire existence and clenched her fists. There was no way she will ever be able to find out how Ji Meng was twisted this badly by the Ji family but even so!

No one will be able to deny that the man killed Ji Meng because Ji Mo was worried that Ji Meng will say something in front of others!
