Chapter 246: Reencounter

Mo Li was surprised to see her picture in the drawer. She was confused. “So this has to do with me?”?No wonder Xiao Rui came looking for me but I’m certain I’ve not seen this man before.

“Is it possible that Nie Li is related to this chairman?” Xiao Rui phrased it as a question but there was accusation in his tone. He Sen, Zhuang Xin and Mo Li, they were all directly related to Nie Li. Of the 4, 2 were dead and 2 were still alive, and one of them had her picture inside the dead man’s desk.

“Why are you looking at me like that? I’ve been at school all these time. I don’t even have time for myself, much less this unknown man.” Mo Li thought Xiao Rui had lost his mind to have suspected her.

Xiao Rui turned his face away and he looked awkward. Then Mo Li realized Xiao Rui had another reason for being there. Xiao Rui probably had need of her. Mo Li thought about it and found it quite funny. Lu Xuan most likely had made the demand that he wouldn’t start the autopsy if Mo Li didn’t lead it.

“In that case, Officer Xiao, I’ll have to trouble you to request a leave of absence for me.” Mo Li said as she walked towards the school gate. In Xiao Rui’s car, Mo Li frowned as she scanned through the document.

“So do you know what Dian Tian Deng is?” Xiao Rui asked.

Mo Li waved the picture of the victim and said, “It’s a form of ancient chinese torture, it’s also called lightning a human candle. It’s a very cruel form of torture. The victim would be stripped naked and then wrapped in linen. They would then be immersed in an oil tank overnight. When the time is right, the victim would be tied to a wooden pole and he’d be lit with a fire source from his feet, forming a literal human candle.”

Kang Zhi who was driving shivered when he heard the description, he couldn’t believe someone would do something like this in modern time.

However… Mo Li didn’t really explain all the variation to this form of torture. There was another style of Dian Tian Deng. This was created by a group of bandits around the Sichuan area during the rule of RPC. The victim would have a hole drilled through their skull and then oil would be poured into it. Immediately after, the oil would be lit and the victim would die in extreme pain.

At the autopsy room, Lu Xuan and Qin Xuan were waiting for Mo Li.

Mo Li examined the chairman by the name of Dong Yun. He had the misfortune to have been subjected to both variations of Dian Tian Deng. There were burn marks on his skin and there was a hole on his skull.

“Now this is interesting… His blood oxygen content.” Mo Li commented as she looked at the autopsy records.

“Thank you so much, Mo Li! I really don’t know how to thank you!” An Wan looked at Mo Li excitedly. Mo Li had agreed to be in Like a Willow less than a week after An Wan called her.

Mo Li was actually doing this for her own personal reason. The case at 22 High School had to do with the legend of henna; and now this new case had to do with Dian Tian Deng. Mo Li believed they were related to Flower Appraisal. And the person at the centre of all these cases was Nie Li. Accepting the movie role was Mo Li’s way of getting close to her.

When Nie Li saw Mo Li, she didn’t say anything but a light, “Long time no see.” Nie Li arranged someone to bring An Wan to sign the contract with Huan Yu so Mo Li and Nie Li were the only ones left in the room.

“If you think about it, I witness your rise to fame. And to think, it all started with an accident… Speaking of, I heard that Dong Yun has died in an accident. Can you tell you something about my old friend? Have you found anything in the autopsy?”

Why would she know about this? Xiao Rui told me that they have kept Dong Yun’s death a secret. Could this woman really be related to Flower Appraisal??With this thought in mind, Mo Li said calmly, “I’m sorry but I can’t discuss the details of an ongoing case.”

Nie Li wanted to probe Mo Li for information but she didn’t expect that the girl to not give her face at all.
