Chapter 82: Reckless Act: The Idiotic County Magistrate
As it turned out, the Heyang County’s magistrate was a brainless idiot. He believed the rumors in the street and thought that if he did not immediately cremate the remains of the girls whose blood had been sucked out, they would become zombies.
Before Wan Ziyang could reach the crime scene, the girls’ corpses had already been burned. All the eyewitnesses had also been killed. The magistrate, with the courage of his convictions, had argued to Wan Ziyang that he had gotten rid of the evil for the greater good.
Wan Ziyang had been so angry that he had almost killed the idiot with a slap. For now, the idiot magistrate was imprisoned in the Justice Department, but Wan Ziyang wanted him locked up for life.
“Did the Su Clan do it?” This was Ye Jiuge’s primary concern.
Wan Ziyang shook his head and said, “I could not find any concrete evidence that the Su Clan was responsible.”
Lately, Su Junqing had been as obedient as a baby. He had not stepped outside his residence, and the brothels and properties suspected to be connected to him were keeping a low profile. They had not bought or sold any small girls, and Wan Ziyang could not find a single clue.
Ye Jiuge frowned. Su Junqing was someone who planned rigorously. If he were deliberately hiding something, it would be even harder to obtain information to use against him.
Suddenly, Ye Jiuge thought of something. She immediately said, “Oh, the Elderly Lady Xu, who fought me in the palace yesterday, is a sorceress!”
“What?” Bai Songling was startled.
