However, halfway through, a constable chased after them. “A/Iiss Chu, the county magistrate sent me to ask you to go over and take a look.”

Chu Qingzhi frowned, not really wanting to go. “What’s there to look at?”

The constable said anxiously, “That student died too strangely. No one could tell the reason.”

Chu Qingzhi did not want to let the county magistrate down, so she compromised. “Then let’s go.”

She turned around and was about to leave when she heard Chu Third’s voice. “Fifth Sister, wait.”

Chu Qingzhi turned around and saw Chu Third riding over with a constable. “Third Brother, why are you here?”

Chu Third got off the horse and explained, “The county magistrate sent a constable to look for you. I was worried that something might have happened to you, so I came to check.”

Chu Qingzhi smiled at him. “I’m fine. I’m going back to school now. Come with me.”

Chu Third replied, “Okay.”

The constable brought Chu Qingzhi to the county magistrate standing in front of the dormitory. “Lord, Miss Chu is here.”

Yunfei School was comparable to the Imperial College. When something so serious happened, he did not dare to be negligent. As the county magistrate, he rushed over at once.

At this moment, looking at everything in front of him, he felt flustered.

Shuiyun County had always been very peaceful and there were almost no major cases. He prayed devoutly to the heavens to bless Shuiyun County so that he could be the county magistrate for a few more years.

“Miss Chu, 1 know you’re very smart and have high medical skills. Take a look at how Tan Maozhi died.”

Chu Qingzhi sighed in her heart and agreed. “Okay.”

The dormitory in the school was provided for students who were far away from home or who wanted to stay voluntarily. There were two people in each dormitory. It was spacious, simple, and bright. There was a bed, desk, and wardrobe. The conditions were not bad.

The dormitory where the case took place was the fifth one in the third row.

This dormitory was occupied by Tan Maozhi and Liu Yuanping.

The person who screamed was Liu Yuanping, and the person who died was Tan Maozhi.

Chu Qingzhi walked towards the dorm.

The first crime scene was sealed. People were surrounding outside. Other than the constables, no one was allowed to enter.

Liu Yuanping sat on the flower bed outside the dormitory. His classmate had brought him a glass of water, but he was still in a daze and was trembling.

The dean of the school was also here. When he saw Chu Qingzhi, he looked extremely surprised.

This girl… He smiled. It seemed that she was very knowledgeable.

He didn’t say anything and just watched quietly.

Chu Qingzhi walked to the door and waved at Chu Third. “Third Brother, come and help me.”

Now, only Chu Third and Chu Eighth hadn’t found a direction in life. She had been observing them. During this period, she realized that Chu Third had a pair of sharp eyes and could always see things that others couldn’t. Moreover, his deduction ability was very strong. Solving cases was very suitable for him.

When Chu Third heard that, he hurriedly walked over. “Fifth Sister, what do you need me to do?”

Chu Qingzhi looked around the room. “Observe the room and don’t let go of any clues. Tell me everything you see.”

Chu Third nodded. “Okay.”

The room was very clean and tidy. It could be said to be spotless.

After entering, there were two desks placed side by side opposite the door. There was a bed against the wall on both sides, a wardrobe next to the bed, some worthless calligraphy and paintings on the wall, and some daily necessities.

Tan Maozhi was lying on his side by the desk. His eyes were closed, and he looked peaceful. It was hard to tell if he was dead or alive.

As he observed, Chu Third walked in.

Bao Linjiang ran over and handed Chu Qingzhi a pair of gloves. “Master, these are new gloves. Put them on.”

Chu Qingzhi couldn’t help but want to praise Bao Linjiang for being considerate. “Go and ask Liu Yuanping about Tan Maozhi’s daily schedule.”

Bao Linjiang immediately agreed. “Master, I’ll go immediately.”

Chu Qingzhi entered the room to check the cause of Tan Maozhi’s death.

She put on the gloves and reached out to press Tan Maozhi’s body a few times. Then, she frowned.

This person died of cardiac arrest…

He did not have a heart disease, and his heart had not been seriously injured or poisoned. To put it simply, he died in his sleep.

This was too strange!

The head constable walked over. He was a young man in his early thirties. He looked very steady and had a serious expression. “Miss Chu, did you see the cause of death?”

Chu Qingzhi said honestly, “He suddenly died in his sleep. He wasn’t poisoned, frightened, or suffered any external injuries.”

The head constable glanced at Chu Qingzhi suspiciously. This kind of death was unheard of. Was she talking nonsense?

The head constable asked, “Is this a suicide? Or a homicide?”

Chu Qingzhi shook her head slowly. “I don’t know yet, so i can’t answer this question.”

The head constable was very disappointed. It seemed that this girl was not as powerful as she was rumored to be. Hence, he did not speak to Chu Qingzhi anymore and went to report the situation to the county magistrate.

Chu Qingzhi’s interest was piqued by this case. There were very few things in this world that she did not know, which meant that this case was not simple. Initially, she did not want to care, but now, she had to get to the bottom of it.

As she thought about it, she suddenly smelled a fragrance. The fragrance was extremely faint. It was a compound fragrance that contained cloves, jasmine, and patchouli. These three fragrances were very relaxing.

She followed the fragrance to Tan Maozhi’s bed.

Upon closer inspection, she realized that the fragrance was coming from Tan Maozhi’s bed. The bedsheets, blankets, pillows, and bed curtains all had such a fragrance.

In this era, soap was usually used to wash clothes. It should be the fragrance of soap. Why was it this fragrance though?

Chu Third walked over. “Fifth Sister, what are you smelling?”

“A fragrance.” Chu Qingzhi looked at Chu Third. “Third Brother, do you smell it?”

Chu Third shook his head. “No.”

Chu Qingzhi said, “Smell it carefully again.” The fragrance was very faint. If one didn’t pay attention, they might not be able to smell it.

Chu Third took a while to smell it. “Fifth Sister, 1 can smell it, but this fragrance shouldn’t be poisonous, right?”

Chu Qingzhi said, “It’s not poisonous, but Third Brother, you can’t miss a single detail when solving a case. Otherwise, your judgment will very likely be off from the truth.”

Chu Third nodded seriously. “Fifth Sister, i understand.”

Chu Qingzhi asked, “Third Brother, did you find anything?”

Chu Third brought Chu Qingzhi under the beam in the middle of the room. He pointed at it and said, “Fifth Sister, look. There’s a mark there. It looks like it was left behind by a very thin thread.”

Chu Qingzhi looked up. The beams were usually covered in dust, but that area, which was about an inch wide, was very clean. This was definitely abnormal.

She walked out and flew to the roof. There were signs of the tiles being moved. “Someone has been in and out from the roof.”

Chu Qingzhi flew to the ground. “Lord, there are traces of movement on the roof tiles. i suspect that someone might have entered the room from the roof and killed Tan Maozhi..”
