Chapter 183 Drinking Human Blood
Yu Zi didn't expect that the princess was still willing to talk to her. It seemed that the princess was really open about everything.
"I am fine, but the master saw some images and has been ill since then."
Out of curiosity, Shi Shuang asked her to sit down, "What kind of scene could make Master Shi sick?"
I looked around and saw no one was looking at me.
Yu Zi leaned forward and whispered, "A few days ago, the master saw a suspicious woman and followed her. Unexpectedly, the woman returned home, took off her veil, her face was ulcerated, and she even drank blood..."
A gust of wind blew by, and several people felt a chill on their backs.
She continued, "The master endured the discomfort and went home, but he collapsed in front of the mansion gate and he hasn't recovered yet."
After a moment, Shi Shuang took a sip of tea and calmed herself down. She asked in confusion, "Is it so strange? Lord Shi didn't send anyone to investigate? Who is that woman?"
"Gone." Yu Zi sighed, "They said it wasn't blood, but a medicine. The woman was also disfigured. I guess the master must have made a mistake. It was late that day. I guess he scared himself."
"It's possible." Shi Shuang nodded.
The two chatted briefly for a while and then parted ways.
Suddenly, the soldiers dispersed the crowd, and Wu An rode out on a tall horse, galloping through the crowd and rushing towards the West City. Shi Shuang saw it, she touched her chin and murmured, "Wu An is back."
Gardenia said, "Lord Wu seems to have something important to say."
Jiusu nodded, probably because a murder had occurred. Suddenly, as if he had thought of something, he smiled and said, "I almost forgot that Lord Wu is the Minister of the Dali Temple and wants to investigate the case. It seems that we have to find someone else to manage the post station."
Gardenia recommended: "What do you think of the first and third bosses, young lady?"
"Yeah! Sure." Jiusu nodded happily. "These two people ask me to arrange work for them every day. The post station has to run back and forth, and we meet all kinds of people. Maybe someone will even rob us. They can just serve as a deterrent."
In the yard, the boss and the third in command were arguing.
The Third Master: "Are you really capable? If you can't play chess, I'll go find some old men to play with. They are much better than you."
"No, we can't look for it." The big boss said seriously, "Don't underestimate me, maybe I will win soon."
Win? Impossible.
When the third in command had nothing to do, she would play chess. At first, no one in the mountain village could beat her.
The two of them had excellent hearing, and when they heard someone coming in, they looked over at the same time.
The third master said excitedly: "Miss!"
"How are you lately? Hmm, you seem to have gained weight." Shi Shuang took her hand and looked her up and down, teasing honestly.
The Third Master covered his face and sighed, "Indeed, who can I blame? There are too many talented people around the young lady. They look down on us and don't let us help. We can only grow fat at home."
Listen to this.
Shi Shuang smiled and said, "I am here now, am I not?"
They smiled at each other, quickly put away the chess pieces on the table, and served good tea and cakes instead.
The Third Master said expectantly, "Miss, what kind of work are you going to assign me? I promise that I can do any dirty or strenuous work, as long as I am not free. I am almost dead from idleness here."
Shi Shuang asked: "Qiu'er, don't worry, have you heard of express delivery recently?"
"I've heard of it." The Third Master nodded. "I also asked about it. It's a pity that we can't send express to Qingyuan County. Hmm? Miss, are you going to let us be responsible for the express delivery?"
Shi Shuang snapped his fingers, "Smart."
She praised and took out the plan.
"The post station has only opened a special line from Shengjing to Shuicheng. This will be implemented across the country. Do you think it is up to the task?"
The boss didn't dare to make big promises, as this was a nationwide matter. He and Qiu'er read the plan first.
He nodded excitedly, "Miss, I think this mission is specially prepared for the two of us. Don't be afraid of being laughed at by you, I have friends all over the place who can help me when the time comes."
If they can deliver the express from the northernmost part to the southernmost part within five days, then their lives will not be in vain!
Shi Shuang breathed a sigh of relief. "Okay, I'll leave it to you. Don't fight or make trouble. Handle everything with your strength and ability. If there is any accident, tell me as soon as possible."
The Third Master assured, "Miss, don't worry, we are all past the age of showing off, and we won't be reckless."
Shi Shuang was still relieved about the two of them.
The eldest boss looks rough, but he is actually very delicate inside. The third boss is very courageous, but also very emotional.

At night, Shi Shuang didn't dare to wear pajamas again. Zhizi, the little rascal, actually didn't keep her promise. Humph, while eating, she looked at the absent-minded man and went back to the dormitory to ask.
"What happened?"
"A bizarre incident occurred." Xie Wei frowned and said, "There was a murder case in Shengjing, and several missing persons cases. Lord Wu was very busy. I went to see the body, and it was murdered."
Shi Shuang recalled that she asked, "If he was murdered, it is most likely a revenge killing?"
Xie Wei shook his head and told her about the case. He guessed, "At first, I guessed it was a murder of passion, but after investigating, I found that this woman had a stable temperament, was friendly to others, had no contact with any men, and had never offended anyone."
Hearing this, Shi Shuang asked, "How did the person die?"
"Bleeding to death." After Xie Yan finished speaking, he saw panic in his wife's eyes. He shook his head and dismissed the case, saying softly, "Okay, this matter is under Wu An's jurisdiction. Let's not think too much. It's late at night, and it's time to rest."
I was somewhat scared when I heard about the murder.
Shi Shuang nestled in the man's arms all night and didn't sleep well. She only dared to fall asleep when the sky was slightly bright, as if the day could dispel the night and drive away all the bad guys.
"Huh." She stretched.
Gardenia whispered, "Miss, my son-in-law sent a letter saying that he will not be back for lunch. Lord Wu has asked him to investigate a murder case."
Shi Shuang's appetite decreased, so she picked up the osmanthus cake, took a bite and asked.
"Hasn't the murder case yesterday been solved yet?"
"I heard there's a new murder case." Seeing the young lady's curiosity, Gardenia told her what she had heard. "The deceased was found by the river. When he was fished out, he was already soaked and white, with countless knife marks on his body."
Shi Shuang said without hesitation: "Bleeding to death?"
Gardenia nodded.
Shi Shuang patted the debris on his hands, put on his coat, and said, "Where is the crime scene? Prepare your horses, I'll go take a look."
The body has been brought back, and the family members of the deceased have also been found. They knelt on the ground and cried. They didn't say anything when asked, but just said, "You died so tragically" and "Why did you die like this?"
Xie Wei saw her and took off his gloves to block her view of the corpse.
The death was so tragic that it was easy to be scared.
"A Shuang, why are you here?"
"Let me take a look, maybe I can help." Shi Shuang looked over and was immediately startled. There were several cuts on her wrist. "This, this must be painful."
