Kill the sadistic male protagonist and become the emperor

Chapter 154 The Mute Judge

The man's blood boiled and he took a few steps back unsteadily. Then he forced himself to steady himself, picked up the food tray and was about to smash it at Ji Ying.

The moment the man picked up the food tray, Ji Ying had already made up his mind. He pulled out a kitchen knife from his hind legs, where he had been kneeling, and swung it wildly in front of him.

The blade of the knife was deeply embedded in the food table. The man was frightened by the scene before him. He looked at Ji Ying in horror: "How dare you?!"

He wanted to snatch the kitchen knife from Ji Ying's hand, but he was no match for someone who worked all day.

Ji Ying held the kitchen knife tightly in both hands, raised it to his chest, and said sternly: "Don't come over here!"

The man didn't believe that Ji Ying, who was usually as timid as a mouse and submissive, would really dare to hurt him. He picked up the food tray and smashed it at Ji Ying again. He was determined to beat this ignorant woman to death today.

"boom--"

The sound of a kitchen knife hitting bone suddenly rang out. The knife wound on the man's left arm was so deep that the bone was visible. He fell to his knees due to the severe pain.

He was exhausted and fell to the ground sideways, his blood staining the dirt ground dark red.

It was the first time that Ji Ying saw so much blood and she was terrified. She had originally intended to scare the man with the knife.

Just when she was at a loss, hurried footsteps suddenly came from outside the door.

More than one person!

Ji Ying looked at the mess on the floor and quickly hid behind the kitchen door. She couldn't let others see her hurting anyone with a knife.

Seeing Ji Ying panic, the man used up his last bit of strength to yell, "Help! Someone's killing me!"

There was a knock on the door, and Ji Ying slid to the ground, tears streaming down her face.

It's over, it's over.

"Ji Ying, open the door, I'm Ren Baozhi." Ren Baozhi's voice came from outside the door.

Ji Ying opened her eyes wide in disbelief. She forced herself to get up and looked out through the crack in the door. It was indeed the group of people from the female newspaper.

"Jiying," Ren Baozhi's voice came through the door, "Don't be afraid, we are here to help you."

Ren Lanyue's anxious voice followed: "Madam Ji, open the door quickly, or we might be discovered by others if we are any later."

This sentence revealed the deepest fear in Ji Ying's heart, and she finally opened the door tremblingly.

As soon as she entered the room, Ren Baozhi picked up the overturned food tray and knocked the still screaming man unconscious.

Ji Ying is an old customer of the Women's Newspaper. She comes to the newspaper every day to read newspapers and novels. Not only that, she also often sends some vegetables she grows to the Women's Newspaper, so everyone is very familiar with her.

Although she rarely speaks on weekdays, she kept her head down the whole time today and was too silent. Her state was really not right.

After the tea party, Ren Baozhi and Ji Pingyue looked at each other. Ji Pingyue frowned and said, "Sister, I'm a little worried about Madam Ji."

Ren Baozhi didn't suspect anything and followed her with a few people.

After arriving, they lay on different trees and observed Ji Ying's every move with binoculars. Unexpectedly, blood was drawn as soon as the two men started fighting.

Ren Baozhi looked at the unconscious man with a serious expression: "Madam Ji, if this man wakes up, what are the chances of him reporting to the police, and what are the chances of him taking revenge?"

Ji Ying's lips trembled constantly. She rubbed her face and forced herself to calm down: "Ten...ten points."

After hearing this answer, everyone's expression changed.

Ren Baozhi pursed her lips tightly and said, "If you don't want to be dragged down by this man, then he must not be allowed to stay."

Madam Ji looked at the man deeply, feeling a strange feeling in her heart. She had never expected things to turn out like this.

She just wanted to let the man know that she had learned to resist and that she was no longer a slave who could be ordered around by anyone.

But how did things turn out like this?

Ren Baozhi frowned and said, "There's no time to think about it, Jiying?"

Ji Ying looked at the pool of blood on the ground and shed tears silently.

Ren Baozhi turned around indifferently: "Let's go first. If we are discovered, you and I will be accomplices."

"Sister, are we really going to ignore Madam Ji?" Ren Lanyue couldn't bear it and looked back frequently.

"She can't even make a decision on her own, so how can we force her to do it?"

Seeing that everyone was about to leave, Ji Ying crawled forward on her knees, grabbed Ren Baozhi's robe, and cried softly, "Save me, save me, I can't keep this man, please don't leave!"

Ren Baozhi lowered her eyes to look at the woman pleading at her feet, her voice cold: "I'll ask you again, have you really made up your mind?"

"Really, really! Please, my lady, I don't want to go to jail. From now on, all the food in my house will be given to you. All of it will be given to you. Please, my lady! Save me!"

"Okay, then take them to a slope in the mountains. It must be far away from any water source and in a secluded location. Dig a hole about six feet deep."

After saying this, she turned to look at Yundu and said, "Mother, you are always careful in your actions. Please help me take good care of them and make sure no one finds out."

Yundu's heart had been stuck in her throat since a while ago. When she heard Ren Baozhi calling her, her heart almost burst out. However, she quickly regained her composure and whispered, "I understand."

"Xiaoji," Ren Baozhi said, "stay here. Don't you want to be the county magistrate? Today, I will show you how the murderer destroyed the body."

Ji Pingyue was also greatly shocked today. It was true that she wanted to be a county magistrate, but what should she do if the murderer was her elder sister?

If you conceal it and don't report it, wouldn't you become an accomplice?

But a voice in her heart told her that they were doing the right thing because they had no other choice.

Although it was already the end of April, the nights in the mountains were still chilly. The treetops were cut by the wind, making bursts of shrill whimpers.

The thin crescent moon was also extremely bright, illuminating every corner of the mountain in great detail.

The moonlight shone through the dense branches and leaves, illuminating a place on the hillside where a roll of straw mat was thrown into a deep pit.

On the side, the shadows of several people were stretched extremely long.

The shadow twisted and grew hands, waving the shovel again and again, raising handfuls of yellow soil.

The wind, an accomplice who knew about it, concealed the dull sound of the shovel hitting the soil.

The moon is a mute judge, witnessing sin and watching coldly.

Until the deep pit was filled up and nothing unusual could be seen from the outside, everyone was exhausted and sat down on the ground dejectedly.

Some people looked up at the sky, some lowered their heads in thought, some had red eyes, and some had pale lips.

No one spoke, no one dared to speak.

The startled cry of a night bird in the mountains pierced the dead silence. Ji Ying's weak voice came with the wind: "Madam Ren, what have you done with him?"

Ren Baozhi said expressionlessly, "Before being buried, he was still alive."

After learning the truth, everyone didn't know what expression to make for a moment, and their faces were filled with numbness and depression.

Ji Pingyue shrank his feet and curled up into a small ball. It was because he was afraid to watch the bloody scene that his elder sister did not take action.

The night seemed to be getting darker.
