Chapter 613 - 603: Until Death
Hearing Bi Xia’s words, Miss Wang was stunned. She paused for a moment before smiling and said, "Oh, this belt is stitched by me. I want Mr. Li to wear it, with my love, and marry me."Bi Xia smiled slowly after listening, she tugged at the belt. It was very tight, without any loose spot, and in the middle of the belt, there was a white jade pendant.
With a flash in his starry eyes, she raised her hand and pulled out the dagger that was inserted in ’Mr. Li’s’ abdomen, threw it on the ground, then loosened the belt and bit by bit pulled the clothes open.
Xu Renfei stared dumbfounded at Bi Xia’s actions, "Little Jiu’er, be more reserved. Although this ’Mr. Li’ looks good, he is still dead. Don’t be too reckless!"
Bi Xia paused, then slapped Xu Renfei on the head, "Get lost! Look, what is this?"
"What?"
Xu Renfei, holding his head, looked down in a daze, only to see that the abdomen was stained with blood, and in one spot, there was a knife wound where the dagger had gone in.
"Isn’t this just the place where he was stabbed?" Xu Renfei asked doubtfully.
Bi Xia ignored Xu Renfei and turned to Miss Wang’s little maid, "May I ask if this young lady can find me a wet towel or something of the sort?"
Miss Wang’s maid paused, "Oh! Alright, please wait a moment."
Saying so, she turned and walked out of the hall, then turned a corner and went into the control room.
"Hey, give me a towel!"
One of the men in the control room glanced at the little maid and said, "No!"
The little maid rubbed her nose, snorted coldly, took a rag from the table, then poured mineral water on it and turned around to leave the control room.
Everyone in the control room: ...
"Sir, here you go." The little maid walked up and handed the rag to Bi Xia. Unlike her wild behavior in the control room just now, she was now extremely gentle, making everyone in the control room twitch their mouths. This girl, ditching principles for appearance!
Bi Xia smiled slightly at the little maid and took the towel. Looking at the jade pendant on the belt, she pretended not to care and said, "This jade pendant is really beautiful, but it doesn’t quite match the outfit."
"Oh," Miss Wang’s maid said, "this jade pendant was originally a token of affection given to the young lady by the young master. The young lady cherishes it very much. She personally put it on him when they got married, saying it symbolized their destined love."
"I see, that’s really lovely," Bi Xia responded to the little maid, then turned to Xu Renfei and said, "Here, look at this."
Saying this, Bi Xia wiped the abdomen of ’Mr. Li’ with the towel under Xu Renfei’s gaze, exposing the skin covered in blood.
Xu Renfei’s eyes widened, "Holy shit!"
They saw the skin, originally stained red, now had a patch of purplish-green. In the middle of the purplish-green area, there was a tiny hole.
Xu Renfei swallowed and whispered to Bi Xia, "Is this really the cause of his poisoning?"
Bi Xia smiled and covered the wound, then turned her eyes to the people behind her. She saw two people’s faces change simultaneously, and they slowly stood up. Bi Xia said to Miss Wang, "Miss Wang, we might need to visit your room next. Can you lead the way?"
Miss Wang frowned at Bi Xia, "Do you think I killed my husband?"
Bi Xia shook her head, "Miss Wang, you misunderstand. This is just a routine check. After this, I will also need to check your maid’s and Housekeeper Wang’s rooms."
Miss Wang felt relieved after hearing this. She stepped back, "Please, sir."
Xu Renfei and Bi Xia walked behind, looking at the four people in front. Xu Renfei whispered to Bi Xia, "Do you already know how ’Mr. Li’ died?"
Bi Xia did not hide it and nodded, "Yes, I’ve already figured it out."
"Tell me, tell me."
Bi Xia curled her lips, "I’ll tell you once we get there. Oh, and once we’re in Miss Wang’s room, help me find something related to a green potion."
"Green..." Xu Renfei’s words trailed off, "You mean... poison?"
Bi Xia nodded, "That’s right, the poison that killed ’Mr. Li’."
