Chapter 532: What Happened
As soon as she entered the door, the Sixth Miss almost fell to the ground. Seeing Madam Hou lying on the ground with a hemp rope around her neck and not reacting at all, her tears immediately fell.
Shu Yu took a few steps forward and reached out to touch her neck. Then, she heaved a sigh of relief.
“It’s fine. She’s still alive. She just fainted.”
The two officers also rushed forward and pinched her philtrum to wake her up.
Madam Hou was still a little confused. She subconsciously reached out to touch the back of her neck where she had been hit and let out a soft hiss in pain.
The Sixth Young Lady ran over in a flurry and hugged her. “Mother, Mother, you’re alright. You’re alright.”
She was scared to death just now.
Madam Hou was startled and finally reacted. Then, as if she had thought of something, her face turned pale and she quickly reached out to hug the Sixth Young Lady, breathing heavily.
After she had calmed down for a while, she raised her head and saw Shu Yu and two officers standing at the side.
Seeing that she was fine, the officer asked, “Madam Hou, what exactly happened just now? Who was that person? Why did he want to kill you?”
Madam Hou opened her mouth. At this moment, a few people walked over from outside the house.
At the front were the leading officer and one of the experts who had fought with the black-clothed men just now.
The other person seemed to have left with the man in black.
Shu Yu subconsciously retreated to the side, but the leader of the officers asked her to go with Madam Hou and tell her the whole story.
Madam Hou had already regained her senses. Hearing this, she immediately said, “I woke up in the middle of the night to go to the toilet. When I came back, I had just turned around the corner of the wall when I saw that black-clothed person climb down from the wall. I happened to be right in front of him. I don’t think he’s a good person. I just called for help and was knocked unconscious by him.”
As she spoke, Madam Hou glanced at the officer beside her.
She had indeed met with the officer in private. After speaking, she had indeed gone to the outhouse.
Who knew that when she came out of the latrine, she would bump into a murderer who had climbed over the wall? She was unlucky.
She didn’t know what happened after Madam Hou was knocked unconscious, but Shu Yu repeated what she saw.
That was probably it.
When Madam Hou heard that the man in black wanted to make it look like she committed suicide to avoid punishment, she immediately felt a lingering fear. She quickly pulled Shu Yu’s hand and said, “Fortunately, Third Miss is here. Fortunately, you are here. Otherwise, I would have lost my life.”
Shu Yu laughed dryly. She had almost lost her life.
She silently clenched the bead in her hand, not knowing if Meng Yunzheng had left.
After hearing this, the leading officer nodded and said, “We know about this. Alright, since you’re fine, go back to your room and rest. Don’t go out too often.”
He should also know about the matter between Madam Hou and the other officer. After saying this, he glared at the officer.
Shu Yu stood up and supported the Sixth Miss Madam Hou as they walked out of the room.
The three of them let out a long sigh when they returned to the shared room.
Madam Hou thanked Shu Yu gratefully. Shu Yu waved her hand and prepared to sleep.
After such a torment, it was already very late. If she didn’t sleep now, she wouldn’t be able to wake up tomorrow.
Shu Yu didn’t care. It was the same even if she slept in the car. The one who should be worried was Madam Hou.
However, Madam Hou had narrowly escaped death just now, so she could not fall asleep no matter what.
She only gently patted the Sixth Young Lady’s back. When the two people in the room had fallen asleep, she was still very awake.
