After hearing Yue Linze’s question, the coroner observed for a while and kept shaking his head: “I’m not quite sure about this. It seems we need to examine it carefully. But first, we should inform the Zhou family and see what they plan to do.”
“So can we leave now?” Yue Linze asked earnestly, clearly terrified.
The coroner chuckled: “Yes, City Lord, you can go…”
Before he could finish the last syllable, Yue Linze had already dragged Tao Yu outside, running far before stopping and looking at her with lingering fear: “Aren’t you scared?
Just a dead person, what’s there to be afraid of? It’s not like they’ll get up and bite us,” Tao Yu said with a laugh. Seeing the admiring look in Yue Linze’s eyes after hearing her words, she thought to herself with a sense of vicissitude that nothing could be as scary as the life-sized porcelain doll from a previous world.
Yue Linze’s eyes were still slightly moist, and he looked softly at Tao Yu, laughing after a while: “My wife is truly amazing, afraid of nothing.”
“Yes, not afraid. There’s nothing to be afraid of,” Tao Yu saw the naive innocence in his eyes and couldn’t help softening her attitude, holding his hand as they walked out. “If you encounter something scary in the future, come discuss it with me, okay?”
Now it seemed impossible to stay and have the coroner examine the body. She would have to find an opportunity to come back and examine it separately to see what the cause of death was. Until now, she still felt that Zhou Ying’s death in this world and the deaths of several alternate personalities were somehow deeply connected. Until she could clarify this, she would not be at peace.
Yue Linze responded with a slight excitement: “I previously wanted to become a monk, but my mother-in-law and others were absolutely against it. I didn’t know why, but now I finally understand.”
“Why?” Tao Yu raised an eyebrow.
Yue Linze smiled sheepishly, with two blushes on his face: “Because if I became a monk, I couldn’t get married. But having a wife is the happiest thing in this world. They love me and want me to be happy, so they wanted me to do otherwise.”
