Imperial Bodyguard Zhou was trying to be polite to Half-immortal Xie’s family members.
“Don’t be afraid, Young Lady. Your sister is accumulating good karma. It won’t be long before she gets the corpse buried.” Imperial Bodyguard Zhou comforted her.
Pei Wanyue’s chin was trembling, “Get it buried? But my elder sister didn’t even know him?”
“This is precisely the case. Because they don’t know each other, she couldn’t bear to see his corpse buried in the wilderness. Ms. Xie seems to know some feng shui techniques and wants to move it to a better place.” Imperial Bodyguard Zhou said again.
Pei Wanyue could not help but hold her breath.
‘She carried a corpse of a person she doesn’t know by her side?!
‘It was such a dirty and terrible thing…’
Pei Wanyue’s eyelids twitched, and she was so angry that she could not speak for a while.
Imperial Bodyguard Zhou smiled and began to evacuate the crowd. At this time, Pei Wanyue suddenly said, “It’s inappropriate for my sister to do this.”
Imperial Bodyguard Zhou looked back at her.
“Since it is a corpse in the wilderness, it should be handed over to the administrative office.” Pei Wanyue’s face went pale. “This person also has relatives. You should let the administrative office check his identity, find his family, and take his corpse back.”
Imperial Guard Zhou was a little surprised.
‘Yes indeed, this is the normal standard procedure.’
‘It is just that if he follows the standard procedure, it will be impossible to find the family members for this corpse in a short period of time. If this wild corpse has no other characteristics, it will most probably end up in a crematorium.’
‘Although the crematorium charity will take in the corpse, it cannot be left there for too long. After a long time, no one will claim it. In the end, it will be buried harshly or…
‘Be thrown into the mass grave.
‘It would be good if Half-immortal Xie wants to help bury this corpse.’
‘But if this girl wants to help find relatives for the corpse, it would be even a better idea.
With his Young Master identity, it would not be good for him to ignore this matter.
“This person has been dead for at least half a year. The possibility of finding a relative is very slim. Your elder sister found his corpse. Why don’t you wait for her to come back? Even if you want to report about it to the official, your elder sister has to come forward and provide some important clues.” Imperial Bodyguard Zhou said with a smile.
Pei Wanyue nodded, and she then pursed her lips in a somewhat embarrassed manner.
After a while, she said in a tangled voice, “But…I’m afraid that my elder sister is not willing to hand over the corpse.”
“I know. This is a human corpse, and it’s not some kind of treasure. Logically, there must be a reason why your elder sister would hide and deal with it in a different way, but… Your elder sister should have thought of reporting to the official, but she did not. She must have her own reasons, so… ”
Imperial Bodyguard Zhou was captivated hearing that.
‘Does that mean that there was a secret between Half-immortal Xie and the corpse, so she chose not to report it to the official?’
Imperial Bodyguard Zhou suddenly had a headache.
‘This person… Is she really Half-immortal Xie’s biological sister? Does she really hate her?’
“Let’s wait until your elder sister comes back.” Imperial Bodyguard Zhou insisted.
“This young sir is not an official, and it’s not up to you to decide right?” Pei Wanyue said softly, “It’s not good to let the administrative office think that we deliberately hid a corpse, so…”
Pei Wanyue finished speaking, looked at the crowd, and said, “Are there any strong men who are willing to help run the errands and inform an official to come?”
‘It is impossible that everyone in the inn are Xie Qiao’s acquaintances?’
Pei Wanyue also had alluring features but she was frightened just now. At this moment, she tried hard to be awe-inspiring, which made many people on the spot admire her.
“I’m going!” Someone volunteered himself.
Pei Wanyue thanked the person and he immediately ran out of the inn.
Imperial Guard Zhou and his other men were left dazed and confused.
Suddenly they realized that they were being looked down upon!
‘This young lady must have thought they were ordinary guests because they had not revealed their identity!’
