Chapter 52: The Counterattack of Madam Black Cat (10)
Translator: Guy Gone Bad
As Ji Yue instructed, Nangong Ze called the police and ordered that no one could get near to Xiaomei’s body.

When Ji Yue went back to the main building holding Xia Liang in his arms, the policemen were already there doing their evidence collection job.

After doing all sorts of basic analysis, the police ruled out the possibility of suicide or accidental death.

So there was only one possibility left—murder!

Obviously she was murdered by someone in the manor.

All people in the manor were suspects. They had to give their alibi and take witness statement one by one.

Except for more than 40 servants in the manor, there were a few masters of Nangong family. It took quite some time to finish all the investigations.

Ji Yue stood next to the police when they asked questions.

He didn’t ask questions but he listened attentively, unlike the police who wrote down all the details about the questions that they asked.

He stood there quietly, rubbing his chin and staring at their faces, tapping his finger on his arm.

But Xia Liang was surprised that he could memorize everything all the servants said, even though he didn’t write a single word down on a notebook or something.

He had an extraordinary memory as she did.

He also asked a couple of questions from time to time and each time he asked, he got right to the point and discovered the contradictive places between the servants’ statements.

Some servants made little lies because of some personal reasons but Ji Yue could see all them through finally.

After some got exposed on spot, no one dared to tell any lies.

The policemen who cooperated with him were all amazed by his skills and looked him with admiration in their eyes.

Even though he was snuggled by a black cat all the time, he was still like a hero to them.

Yes. Xia Liang stuck with Ji Yue the whole time. No one could chase her away.

The policemen tried to take her away in the beginning but Ji Yue stopped them.

Xia Liang now had a better impression on Ji Yue. So she was more determined toride on Ji Yue’s coattails..

In others’ eyes, she was obviously Ji Yue’s ankle pendant. But she just had no idea herself.

Xia Liang focused on analyzing all the conversations during the investigations and tried to find a breakthrough.

And she wanted to find if she could find a man in black but failed.

It was not until two hours later that the first round of investigation was over.

Xia Liang was disappointed that she got noting important from it. Those servants either witnessed for one another and provided each other with an alibi, or they had no motivation at all.

There was no progress in the case for then.



The already overcast Nangong family now became kind of spooky due to Xiaomei’s death.


Everyone was paranoid and looked around while they walked around. They might be startled to scream only because of a common noise.

Some maids even cried in front of Nangong Ze and begged to quit and let them go.

Because they didn’t want to be killed like Xiaomei.

Of course Nangong Ze would not agree. Now was the emergency period. Anyone would be the suspect. He might set free the real murderer this way.

It was 10pm in Ji Yue’s room.

“Liang, come here. Let me give you a bath. Then we can go to bed together. All right?” Ji Yue rubbed Xia Liang who was lying on his lap yawning.

Xia Liang got excited because finally he was going to bed.

She finally had a chance to sneak out if he went to bed.

She tried so many times to go out earlier this evening. But Ji Yue stopped her every time and took her back and then held her in his arms.

He even warned her not to go out.

Xia Liang struggled a bit at the beginning but later she started to doze off on Ji Yue’s lap because his arms were so warm that she couldn’t resist.
