She pushed the door open.
A wave of deathly stillness hit her in the face.
Mu Qiulan had just died not more than two hours ago.
But there wasn't much stench in the room.
But …..
The moment Ye Qing Luo opened the door.
She sensed an inexplicable chill.
That kind of chill was a little like evil yin qi.
But in the blink of an eye, it disappeared.
It was as if what he had just felt was nothing more than an illusion.
Ye Qing Luo frowned slightly as she glanced sideways at the judicial officer standing behind her.
The judicial officer's expression didn't change at all.
As though he hadn't sensed anything amiss.
Seeing Ye Qing Luo's gaze, the judicial officer asked coldly, "Miss Ye, have you discovered something?"
Ye Qing Luo carefully sized up the judicial officer again.
The judicial officer indeed didn't seem to have sensed the gust of Yin qi earlier.
Ye Qing Luo retracted her gaze and shook her head as she turned her attention back to the room.
It was afternoon and there was plenty of light.
But there was a white candle lit in the room and the flame was flickering.
The faintly swaying shadows made the entire room look a little more gloomy.
Ye Qing Luo walked slowly.
Her gaze wandered around.
She walked all the way to the inner hall, which was the sleeping room.
Mu Qiulan was lying on the bed but her legs were slightly bent and stretched out by the side of the bed.
She was lying on her back and the posture of her arms was twisted.
Ye Qing Luo saw the piece of jade pendant in Mu Qiulan's hand.
The emerald green jade pendant was sparkling with a sparkling light.
Ye Qing Luo walked forward and stretched out her hand to pick up the jade pendant.
The judicial officer's sleeves moved and an invisible Profound Energy stopped Ye Qing Luo's hand, "What are you trying to do?!"
"Dirty." Ye Qing Luo shot a glance at the judicial officer and took a step back, "This jade pendant was given to me by Ah Xuan, if she touches it, it will be dirty."
Following that, she said indifferently, "This jade pendant is merely a tool to draw your attention to me. Now that I'm standing here, this thing should be returned to its rightful owner right?"
"You mean, someone is using this jade pendant to frame you?" The judicial officer's eyes were filled with ridicule.
Ye Qing Luo raised her brows: "It doesn't matter if you believe it or not, I don't care. But …. if someone really framed me, then your Ling Long Palace is merely a chess piece in their hands."
The Grand Judge pursed his lips and did not speak again.
A pair of gloomy eyes flickered with a cold light under the flickering candlelight.
Ye Qing Luo chuckled as she stepped aside, "Grand Judicial Magistrate doesn't trust me, so I'll have to trouble Grand Judicial Magistrate to bring the jade pendant over personally."
The Grand Judge's face darkened and he didn't say a word.
"I'm sure Ah Xuan wouldn't wish for the thing he gave me to be in the hands of a corpse …. for such a long time right?" Ye Qing Luo wasn't in a hurry as she shot a glance at her with a smile which didn't look like a smile.
The Grand Judge's face twitched. He suppressed his anger and sneered.
Then, he strode toward Mu Qiulan.
He bent down and took out the jade pendant!
The jade pendant felt cold in his hand.
The raging anger in his chest seemed to be soothed by this cold feeling.
She clenched the jade pendant tightly as her gaze swept up and down.
After confirming that there wasn't any unknown aura or clues on the jade pendant, he then threw it to Ye Qing Luo.
Ye Qing Luo raised her hand and caught the jade pendant.
She took out a handkerchief and wrapped the jade pendant before putting it into the Azure Dew Bracelet.
