Luo Cheng nodded and remembered this.

There were many bad people in this world. After they caught one, they encountered another one.

However, if they could capture one, there would be one less, so it wasn’t pointless.

Before meeting them, he had probably harmed countless people, so it was time to investigate.

Soon, Yan Fanyi was taken away.

Seeing that the matter was almost settled, the third prince, Ling Heng, turned his attention to the murder case.

With a wave of his hand, the personal guard behind him came forward and grabbed Dou Jun.

Dou Jun started to panic when the Seventh Prince and the Third Prince appeared.

Although his identity could make many people wary, the Third Prince wasn’t among them.

As for the Seventh Prince, he wouldn’t show him any mercy either.

“I, I, I didn’t kill anyone. It really wasn’t me! She killed herself. It had nothing to do with me!” Dou Jun defended himself while trembling under the Third Prince’s glare.

“You know how to speak human language now? When my sister-in-law was falsely accused, why didn’t you help her clear her name?! Their people will investigate the matter, so Dou Jun, you should follow the bailiffs obediently! If you’re really innocent, I believe the bailiffs will definitely give you justice!” Ling Heng said.

“No, no, no, I want to see my father! I didn’t kill anyone. I’m innocent. I want to see my father!” Dou Jun was unwilling to go to prison no matter what. At this moment, he wanted to look for his father.

However, how could Ling Heng let him do as he wished? He asked someone to arrest Dou Jun and send him to the station.

Of course, the deceased would also be sent to the government offices by the bailiffs.

When Li Xiaoran saw all this, she suddenly felt that something was wrong.

“There’s supposed to be someone else, but where is she?” Li Xiaoran asked in confusion.

Luo Cheng and Ling Heng looked over. They didn’t know who Li Xiaoran was talking about.

“There’s someone else! When this girl came in, she had a maid with her. That maid is missing!” Li Xiaoran quickly told them about this important clue. “There was a maid with the deceased?” When Luo Cheng heard this, he

immediately looked around. “Have any of you noticed that maid before?”

The others shook their heads in confusion. After all, they were all sitting in their seats drinking tea while talking, so they didn’t pay attention to their surroundings.

At this moment, the woman in red who had helped out previously said, “I saw that there was indeed a maid following her. However, that girl seemed to have been frightened and disappeared in the blink of an eye!”

The third prince, Ling Heng, realized that this maidservant was very important, so he immediately asked someone to look for her.

“Was there anything special about this maid?” After Luo Cheng thought about it for a moment, he asked Li Xiaoran.

After Li Xiaoran thought about it for a moment, she shook her head. “There was nothing special about him, and she had an ordinary appearance, the type you won’t be able to notice in the crowd!”

At this point, Li Xiaoran recalled again. “I can draw her portrait! Bring me paper and a burned wooden stick. The wooden stick can’t be too thick. It should be about the size of half a finger!”

Soon, Luo Cheng asked someone to prepare what Li Xiaoran wanted.

After tidying up the nearest wooden table, Li Xiaoran laid the drawing paper on the table and started drawing on it with a carbonized wooden stick sharpened with a knife.

Li Xiaoran was immersed in her memories. As she recalled her appearance, she began to draw.

After half an hour, a person who looked like a maid appeared on the paper.

After Ling Heng saw it, he was immediately shocked.

“I really didn’t expect you to be so good at drawing. You can draw people so vividly. With such a portrait, the government definitely won’t catch the wrong person in the future!”

Luo Cheng had seen Li Xiaoran’s drawing skills before, so he wasn’t surprised.

After the portrait was drawn, Li Xiaoran didn’t stop. Instead, she took another piece of paper and continued drawing.

After drawing a total of five portraits, Li Xiaoran stopped.

“These five portraits should be enough. We’ll keep one for ourselves and give the remaining four to the people from the government offices!” Li Xiaoran said.

“Give three copies to the government! I’ll take one copy with me! Since I encountered this matter, I naturally won’t ignore it!” Ling Heng said.

Li Xiaoran looked at Luo Cheng. Seeing her man nod, she knew that she could trust the Third Prince, so she gave him a copy of the portrait.

After the other bailiffs in the government saw the Seventh Prince’s abilities, they all became respectful.

Previously, there might have been people who looked down on the Seventh Prince’s consort, but now, their opinions had changed.

Anyone who could draw a person’s portrait to such a realistic extent was definitely a big shot!

Such a person could only be roped in and couldn’t be offended!

Soon, this murder case was taken over by the bailiffs.

Because this was the crime scene, everyone left their identities and evacuated in an orderly manner.

When she walked out of the teahouse, Li Xiaoran saw the woman in the red dress. She thought about it for a moment before walking over.

“Thank you for speaking up for us just now. I wonder what your name is? I want to be your friend!”

The woman in red was waiting for a carriage with a sword in her hand. When she heard Li Xiaoran’s voice, she turned around and revealed a strange smile.

“Do you know who I am? You don’t even know my identity, but you came to befriend me. Aren’t you afraid of regretting it in the future?” The woman in red said.

“I don’t make friends based on status. I befriend whoever I like! In that situation, only you stood up to help me. Just this alone is worth befriending you for!” Li Xiaoran replied with a smile.

“Alright, I won’t judge you by your status! If I told you that I’m a demoness that many young ladies in the capital avoid, would you still be willing to befriend me? How about this? Go back and tell the Seventh Prince to ask around about my reputation in the capital before deciding if you want to befriend me!” After the woman in red said this, she saw the carriage coming and flew into it.

“You haven’t told me where to find you. What’s your name?” Li Xiaoran asked anxiously.

“Your husband must know!” The woman in red said before she drove the carriage away.

After watching them leave, Li Xiaoran turned to look at her man.

“Husband!” Li Xiaoran shouted as she looked at Luo Cheng eagerly.

Luo Cheng quickly replied, “I’ll get someone to investigate immediately! It’s rare for you to take the initiative to befriend someone, so we can’t let her off!”

When Li Xiaoran heard this, she immediately laughed..
