Chapter 229 - 229 Killed after getting tortured: Cannot remember anything!
Liu Fei Fei was stunned when she was scolded by Liu Hui Ying, she wanted to say something to her but then she stopped herself and turned to look at her body that was lying in the coffin. She really couldn’t remember getting kidnapped, all she knew was that her face was pushed into the water and then she lost her life apart from that she did not know anything else.
When Nanny Cheng said that she saw her body in the pond, she thought that she has been killed by someone who pushed her body into the pond from behind after killing her but now that her body was covered in bruises and rope marks, the truth she knew about her death seemed to be contradicting itself.
” How is this possible?” Liu Fei Fei murmured as she tried to remember what happened to her but all she remembered was her head getting shoved inside the water and nothing else. She did remember that she has been pushed under the surface of the water and that she could not fight her captor but other than that she did not remember anything else and that made her feel really at loss, what was she supposed to do? Now, who was she going to pin the blame for her death?
Liu Hui Ying was not at all surprised by Liu Fei Fei’s actions, she already had a very good idea that the woman might have not remembered what happened to her before she died. Liu Fei Fei was not the first of her clients who did not have any memories of what happened to them before they were killed off, most of them were brutally tortured but since they wished to forget the trauma that happened to them while they were alive, their soul naturally forgot the major part of the murder.
However, in midst of being killed they would also feel a heavy grudge towards the person who killed them which was why even though they forgot everything that happened to them, they would still go around looking for the person who killed them if not then how was it possible for anyone to explain as to why her sister who was a celestial master herself forgot the face of her killer and just turned hostile to every man that was in the vicinity closer to her.
” You were most likely killed very slowly,” Liu Hui Ying told Liu Fei Fei as she pointed to Liu Fei Fei’s feet which looked more swollen than the other part of her body, without the proper pieces of equipment it was impossible to tell when was the right time of Liu Fei Fei’s death and what was more there was also the fact that the Dowager Empress turned the entire case into that of a suicide which was why Liu Fei Fei did not even receive the basic autopsy from the people in the judicial department.
With her hand pointing to Liu Fei Fei’s feet, Liu Hui Ying then pointed to her hands and then her upper body. ” As you can see, if you were to look carefully…you will realise that the swelling of your body slowly disappears as take a look at your upper body, don’t you think that this is weird? If you drowned completely then the swelling on your body should have been even but it’s not.”
“It’s more like as if your feet were left in water for far too long followed by your torso and then finally your upper half of the body that was left,” Liu Hui Ying pursed her lips as she picked up a tracing pencil that had a blunt edge instead of a sharp one and then skimmed the tip over the marks that were left on Liu Fei Fei’s wrist as she continued speaking, ” You were not pushed to the pond and died on the spot, you were most likely kidnapped in the night and then you were tied up and placed in a vessel that slowly got filled with water.”
.....
” That is why your feet are more swollen than your face,” Liu Hui Ying explained everything to Jia Li who was listening to her every word and then turned to look at Liu Fei Fei. ” You stayed in the water vessel for an entire night before you lost consciousness and once you lost your consciousness, your killer took you out brought you over to the edge of the pool and then pushed your head under the water before pushing you inside the pool to make it look like as if you were pushed inside.”
Liu Fei Fei’s head started to buzz if she was being honest, she did feel a bit stiff at the back of her neck as if she has been hurt severely but she took it as her getting killed now that she was listening to Liu Hui Ying’s words, she could not help but try to move her neck, as soon as she tried to move it in a circle she felt her neck make a weird creaking sound before it dangled lopsidedly on the side.
Her neck … was truly broken, and how else would it get broken? By being pushed into the water again and again with a force that was too much for her body to bear!
Her entire existence froze.
Why did she not remember something so important? How can she even forget something so important?
Liu Fei Fei felt that she was really stupid before she turned to look at Liu Hui Ying and asked, ” Then what about Nanny Cheng? She said that I was sleeping in my room in the morning before she woke me up and then left to get breakfast.”
” You did not notice it did you?” Liu Hui Ying was very calm as she turned to look at Liu Fei Fei who was slowly turning agitated. ” Nanny Cheng’s eyesight has been getting worse in the past few years, she can see but her vision is not clear, most probably the person who killed you took your spot and then mimicked your voice and actions to fool Nanny Cheng. With her deteriorating vision it is not a surprise that she failed to notice that you were missing.”
