[QTC] MBDT Chapter 1806

Feng Qing’s words were like daggers, piercing Yan Jin’s heart, leaving him speechless.

Clearly, Feng Qing’s words left him with no room for rebuttal.

Yan Jin noticed the scrutinizing gazes directed at him and panicked. His usual refined composure vanished.

He said urgently, “Don’t listen to his nonsense! I’m not the murderer, absolutely not!”

“Last night, after you went to find Bei Yutang, Gongsun Mingyue said she was afraid to sleep alone in her own room, so she asked to stay in my room. I thought she had just been traumatized, so I agreed. We both fell asleep quickly after we went to bed. When I woke up this morning, I saw a corpse. I really don’t know what happened during the night.”

Hearing about her situation, Bei Yutang couldn’t help but ask, “You brought me back to my room yesterday? What happened last night?”

Dr. Zhang replied, “Around 2 AM, Gongsun Mingyue screamed, waking everyone. When we went in, we found her injured and lying on the bed. She said she had been attacked by the murderer and, during the struggle, had scared him away.”

“We noticed you weren’t there and, fearing something might have happened to you, went to look for you. When we found you in the library, you were lying on the floor.”

“I was lying on the floor?” Bei Yutang frowned deeply.

“Yes. Is there a problem?” Dr. Zhang asked.

“No.”

How did she fall asleep?

No, she couldn’t possibly have fallen asleep. Even if she had, she would have woken up when they arrived. But they found her and carried her back to her room without her waking up at all. This was very suspicious.

Suddenly, Bei Yutang stood up and headed straight for the stairs.

Everyone was startled by her sudden action.

Watching her run up the stairs at breakneck speed, Feng Qing muttered, “Is she also possessed?”

“We can’t let her go alone.”

Fearing something might happen to her, the group followed Bei Yutang up to the third floor and into the library. They saw Bei Yutang with her head down, searching for something.

“Sister Bei, what are you looking for?” Li Mengmeng asked.

Bei Yutang ignored her, continuing to search the library meticulously, bit by bit, until she finally found a fine white powder in a corner.

She picked up the white powder and brought it to her nose, smelling it carefully.

Her guess was correct.

She hadn’t fallen asleep from exhaustion last night; she had been drugged.

She realized that she had been careless, and at the same time, she saw the terrifying nature of the person hiding behind it all.

“Sister Bei, what is that?” Li Mengmeng asked curiously.

Dr. Zhang squatted down, smeared the white powder on the carpet, and smelled it, but couldn’t identify what it was.

“Miss Bei, what is this?”

Everyone looked at her.

Bei Yutang stood up, her gaze sweeping over everyone.

“This is the powder from burning silkworm grass. The scent emitted when silkworm grass is burned is the same as the musk emanating from the bookshelves in the library. The two blend together, making it impossible to detect.”

“Silkworm grass? What is that? Is it poisonous?” Li Mengmeng asked hurriedly.

Dr. Zhang also looked bewildered. He understood Western medicine but not traditional Chinese medicine, and he didn’t know what silkworm grass was.
