Ex-Wife is a Big Villainess

Deep into the night, the moonlight scattered down, and all was silent.

Because Qiuye’s wound had not healed, Jiang Shouzhong brought Xia He to the charity estate to look for the body of Zhang Que’er’s mother.

The government’s charity estate generally stored coffins or bones, with unprocessed bodies temporarily kept there, divided into the Taiping House and Changsheng House. The Taiping House held corpses, while the Changsheng House stored coffins.

Bodies involved in major cases were preserved in special caskets and placed in a separate cold storage until the case was completely closed and further processed.

According to Jiang Shouzhong’s understanding of the Nalan case, although the case was closed, the final filing of case files still required a period of review before it could be placed in the Archive Hall, and during this time, the body still needed to be preserved.

So its quick destruction puzzled Jiang Shouzhong.

The personnel guarding the charity estate were mostly older government officials, who were usually alone with no relatives, spending their days in this somber yard, occasionally making some money from relatives claiming bodies, leading easy and comfortable lives.

Jiang Shouzhong and Xia He avoided the guards and headed straight for the cold storage next to the Taiping House.

Compared to the cold storage in the Liushan Division made with special talismans, the charity estate’s morgue was just located in a cooler area, and upon entering, it lacked the bone-chilling cold of the Liushan Division’s storage.

Each body here was recorded by name.
