And Mu Yao just stepped forward to take a look, there was no surprise in his eyes, but he said as if he was in his chest: "Sure enough, it's you." ”

When the surrounding people heard this, they immediately shouted for Mu Yao to kill her.

Yue Qingli's eyes were also very calm when he looked at Mu Yao.

She had been suspicious of Mu Yao before, but now her suspicions were even deeper, and she asked directly, "What is me?"

The expression on Mu Yao's face was very cold: "Everyone is by your side, do you dare to say that you didn't kill it?"

The surrounding people shouted: "City Lord, what are you talking to this crazy woman, kill her directly!"

"Yes! Kill her!"

"Kill her!"

Mu Yao didn't want to drag it out, so he was about to step forward with his sword.

Then he was stopped by Jiang Yinchen.

Mu Yao's eyes were cold: "I forgot, you are in a gang!"

Jiang Yinchen's arrival made the shouts of the people in the city, who were originally angry, suddenly a lot smaller.

In particular, Xuan Rui glanced at them fiercely, and suddenly few people dared to speak out.

Xuan Rui stepped forward and helped Yue Qingli, who was still sitting on the ground, up.

Yue Qingli found that Xuan Rui's eyes were slightly red, so he said, "I'm fine." ”

Xuan Rui glared at her fiercely. It's just that the eyes are slightly red, and this kind of staring is completely different from the ferocity of staring at other people before.

Yue Qingli showed a pale smile on his face.

Mu Yao watched Yue Qingli being helped up, and asked, "Are you going to protect her?"

"I believe in her," Jiang Yinchen still had the same smile on his face as always, but the smile was very cold: "The murderer decided that it would not be her." ”

Mu Yao sneered: "Knowing people and knowing faces but not hearts, how can you confirm that she is not a murderer?"

Jiang Yinchen also smiled and said: "The city lord has seen such a stupid murderer, after killing someone, he is still lying next to the corpse waiting for someone to arrest him?"

As soon as he said this, many people around him began to whisper.

It stands to reason that this is very reasonable, after all, after the murderer killed someone before, there were only corpses, and there was no trace of the murderer at all, but why was someone lying next to him this time?

Mu Yao sneered: "If it weren't for her, can you tell me why she has blood on her hands?"

Yue Qingli looked at Mu Yao, but the figure of the man in black last night appeared in his mind.

She looked closely, and felt more and more that the figure of that person was somewhat similar to Mu Yao.

"I went out for a walk last night because I couldn't sleep, but I saw a man in black, who was the real murderer of so many people. Yue Qingli said.

The surrounding people were in an uproar.

Mu Yao's face was a little ugly: "You said that you saw the man in black, who can prove it?"

Yue Qingli said: "At that time, I was the only one who saw it, and no one else could prove it. ”

Mu Yao suddenly sneered: "You dare to say something that no one can prove?"

"What can't be said. Yue Qingli asked rhetorically: "Then I want to ask City Lord Mu Yao, where were you last night?"

Mu Yao said: "I am naturally handling official business in the City Lord's Mansion. ”

"Then who can prove it?" asked Yue Qingli.

Mu Yao was speechless for a moment, and then replied: "The family members and maids in my house can prove that I was in the house last night and didn't go out." ”

Yue Qingli said: "The city lord said this, doesn't it mean that in fact, the people in the mansion don't know if the city lord has been in the mansion all night. ”

Mu Yao suddenly reprimanded angrily: "I have been in the study all night, yesterday the next person saw me go in with their own eyes, and this morning they saw me come out with their own eyes, why can't this not prove that I have not been in the study all the time?"

"Are there anyone else in the study?" Yue Qingli asked again.

Mu Yao was suddenly annoyed: "Don't forget, the person who is suspected now is you, not me!"

Yue Qingli said, "But I suspect that the real murderer is you." ”

As soon as these words came out, people who originally felt that things were very confusing suddenly felt that things were even more complicated.

Mu Yao's face suddenly became even more ugly: "You suspect me, what evidence do you have?"

Jiang Yinchen said on the side: "Then the city lord suspects my junior sister, what evidence is there?"

Mu Yao sneered: "These things in the city only happened after you arrived. ”

"In this way, you want to push everything on us, is the city lord managing the entire Willow Leaf City so careless of human life?" Xuan Rui also sneered coldly on the side.

Originally, some people began to be suspicious of Yue Qingli and the others when Mu Yao said, "These things in the city only happened after you arrived", but when Xuan Rui said this, everyone began to feel that Mu Yao seemed to be quite strange.

At this moment, Yue Qingli walked straight to Mu Yao, and without waiting for Mu Yao to react, he grabbed his hand, and then rolled up his sleeve.

Mu Yao had a scar on his arm.

Yue Qingli looked at the scar, and the expression on his face remained unchanged: "Lord City Lord, can you tell me, how did this scar come from?"

Mu Yao's face changed. He remembered that he had already taken care of the scar yesterday, why did it appear again?

Yesterday, he found that he was left with a scar on his body by Yue Qingli, so he used medicine to heal the injury, and then directly removed the scar, it stands to reason that he also dealt with it like this before, and there was no problem, why is it now......

He raised his head sharply and looked at Yue Qingli: "You did it?"

A smile slowly appeared on Yue Qingli's face: "I remember that when I fought with a man in black yesterday, I left such a scar on that person's hand. ”

Mu Yao's face suddenly became even more ugly.

For a while, the bazaar was chaotic, and everyone was talking about it, and no one knew what was going on.

Jiang Yinchen asked on the side: "I don't know if City Lord Mu can answer, why did the scars left by my junior sister when she fought with the man in black appear on the hands of the City Lord?"

At this moment, a figure suddenly came out of the crowd, it was Ruoshui.

As soon as Ruoshui came over, he protected Mu Yao: "He didn't kill people." ”

The crowd was in an uproar.

Someone recognized Ruoshui: "Isn't she the Oiran of Wanhualou?"

"Yes, yes, that's her, how did she get out?"

"It has something to do with Ruoshui, too?"

Mu Yao was suddenly annoyed, and he pushed Ruoshui: "What are you doing when you come out?"

Ruoshui turned to look at him: "Mu Yao, we have already done something wrong, don't continue to be wrong, okay?"

Mu Yao's face was very ugly: "What do you want to do?"

Ruoshui's face was full of tears, crying pitifully. "Confess, Mu Yao, please let us go. ”

Mu Yao said fiercely: "What is there to say!"

Seeing this, Yue Qingli asked, "So, you killed all the people?"

Ruoshui nodded: "I killed it, I killed everyone, and it has nothing to do with Mu Yao." Mu Yao, he was just worried that you would find out about me, so he thought about making you a murderer, so maybe you could leave, and no one would ever know the truth about these things. ”

Mu Yao didn't want to say anything at the moment.

The person he cared about had already stepped up on his own, but he couldn't do anything.

Jiang Yinchen asked, "How did you kill those people?"

The tears on Ruoshui's face slipped down one by one: "Those people, those people, are just hypocrites who are greedy for beauty and brought me back to my home, so I killed them directly." ”

Yue Qingli's eyes were a little unbearable: "Why did you kill them so cruelly?"

There was a hint of fierceness in Ruoshui's eyes: "Those people, they don't deserve to live in the world at all!"

In fact, in the past few days, in order to investigate the murderer, Yue Qingli and the others also knew what kind of people these dead people were.

The first person to die was originally in the middle of the road, but because he climbed into a rich family and asked to marry the daughter of the family, the situation in the family began to improve.

But after he married that young lady, he didn't cherish it well, and he had to go to the Qinglou every day.

After the young lady married a woman, she found out that she was marrying such a person, and then committed suicide by hanging.

And the second person who died directly forced a father and daughter from a poor family to death. These two people really deserve to die.

"They deserve to die, but why did you kill them with such cruel means?" Yue Qingli asked.

"Anyway, it's all going to die, what's the difference between being cruel and not being cruel?" Ruoshui replied softly.

"What about the little maid and the maid?" Yue Qingli asked again, "How innocent are they, why do you want to kill them?"

The death of the little maid and the maid was the most unacceptable to Yue Qingli.

Originally, there was something wrong with the private meeting between the two, but after leaving Mu Mansion and Willow Leaf City, they could have lived a very happy life, why should they be killed?

Ruoshui replied softly, "Because, they have ruined the reputation of the Mu Mansion. ”

The previous Mu Mansion had an excellent reputation in the entire Willow Leaf City. But since that ugly incident was exposed, many people have been very disrespectful to Mu Fu in their words. Why can't such a person who ruined the reputation of Mu Mansion die?

"It's just fame. Yue Qingli said: "In your eyes, is reputation more important than human life?"

Ruoshui replied softly: "I don't care about the reputation of others, but they are destroying the reputation of Mu Mansion, how can I not mind?"

Such words have changed many people's views on Ruoshui.

And when Mu Yao heard Ruoshui say so much, his eyes were full of pain: "Why do you want to stand up? Why do you want to admit it?"

Obviously, the person they suspect is him, and the person who exposes the stuff is also him, as long as you hide in Wanhualou, as long as you don't take the initiative to stand up, won't it be fine? Why do you still have to stand up?

Ruoshui heard his voice and raised his head to look at him, his eyes full of affection: "If it's not there, what's the point of me being alone?"

Ruoshui looked at Yue Qingli and begged in a low voice: "I did all this, it has nothing to do with Mu Yao, I beg you, let him go." ”
