~ Cannot see the horizon our back s

Brother Huai Yin!

It has been a long time.

Sit.

I want to have a talk with you.

I wish to become a minister.

Why?

I have fallen in love with a maiden.

But by her side is an overbearing man.

He is young and talented, from very good family I...

You want to be compared to him.

You have a pure, unsoiled temperament,

you will be damaged very soon if you enter the complicated world of the court.

But if I have the ability to protect that girl...

When there is mutual affection shared, their determination will be unwavering.

But if you become obsessed in an unrequited love, it will only hurt her and yourself.

I understand now.

Thank you Brother Huai Yin.

We are officials investigating a case. May I ask...

Bai Yi?

Why are you here?

If you're here, then Lord Xiao is here too.

If Lord Xiao is here..

Miss Ran must be here too!

No wonder I couldn't find her! Turns out she was in the mountains!

Because wherever fox is, there will be a dead body.

Someone died here?

Where?

In the mountain round the back.

Oh yes I want to ask if you've seen a snow demon before?

This civilian has not seen any.

I am on a case, can you not cause trouble?

I am feeling faint. Truly.

You'll be fine after fox inserts a needle in you.

That is so true! Brother Bai, where is Miss Ran now?

She is confined in Yingmei manor right now by His Lordship.

Yingmei manor?

Brother Huai Yin, I have a matter to attend,

I will visit you another day!

Apologies for the intrusion.

Let's go.

Do not touch me or I will beat you

Miss Wan Lv, I am looking for you.

And worried I would disturb Miss Ran's peace.

Your Miss Ran is confined within the manor right now by His Lordship

so she is resting in her room.

That is good then.

Miss Wan Lv.

I want to ask you,

what does Miss Ran like?

Money, wine, she likes both of them.

Is Miss Ran such a vulgar woman?

Vulgar?

My Miss also has an interest that is unique and not vulgar.

What is it?

She likes to collect the hair on corpses.

Why is it you again?

Ruining my plan again!

Move it!

You are resting here?

I came to arrest the killer.

Sleeping on brushwood tasting hardship guarding the stump to wait for the rabbit,*

Great!

Why are you here for?

For the smile of a beauty.

The fox?

The fox.

Your Lord likes her too.

-I can help you. -Good.

You should be helping Your Lord why are you helping me?

Because His Lordship is the most important person in my life.

I cannot let his lordship be harmed by a villain.

That fox is a silver tongued beast in human clothing.

She is using examining bodies as an excuse to get close to him

but in truth she is after my Lord.

I will not let that fox get the man and the money.

Is Miss Ran as terrible as you describe her to be?

I think it was Your Lord who is always like a fly going...

around my Miss Ran.

Your Lord has questionable intentions here!

My Lord is a hero in my heart!

It's impossible for my Lord to have questionable intentions!

Your Lord is not as amazing as Miss Ran who knows how to examine bodies!

At most, that fox only knows how to play with knives.

and play with decomposing bodies.

To me, at most she is a cook.

Then has your Lordship found a snow demon?

You!

No?

It was because of that examiner.

When that examiner heard i was the work of an animal

and when he heard about the snow demon in the mountains

he completely believed in the tale.

But My Lord never believes in myths and tales.

And my Miss Ran does not believe it either.

She is highly skilled, has nimble fingers and loves examining bodies,

as long as she is involved, she will definitely find leads.

My Lord likes solving cases.

Only the examiner is poorly skilled.

My Lord can only investigate it himself it really is difficult.

I do not know how to help His Lordship.

Miss Ran likes examining bodies but there are none for her to examine.

If I can give her a chance to pick up her tools and examine bodies again

perhaps she will look at me through a different light.

You can even lose the heirloom Mistress left you.

Miss can you be more careful?

I clearly placed it in my luggage.

Miss apart from examining bodies,

you are like an idiot in other areas.

Could I have left it at the ancillary building?

I cannot lose it.

Is your Miss around?

Miss, Team leader Bai is looking for you.

What is wrong?

Err...Sang Chen has passed out in the antechamber.

Antechamber?

Doesn't the antechamber contain a...

Surely he was not that foolish?

Speak

What good things did you do behind my back now?

Sang Chen asked me what you liked

so I joked with him and told him you like to collect the hair of bodies.

I didn't expect he..

Your punishment is to clean the knives!

Miss! You always bully me!

His pulse is undamaged, his breathing is regular

He doesn't seem to be ill.

Look at what that is.

Hurts! Hurts! This is an absolute..

When all rabbits die, the dog is cooked*.

Not right, that is the incorrect term.

You rubbed the incense on the mouth of the corpse.

You play dead in front of me?

Whose idea was it?

Miss Ran it was actually...

Was it the idea of the rabbit,

or the idea of you, the loyal puppy?

When that examiner heard there was a snow demon on the mountain

he was scared to death!

Such a coward! How could he call himself an examiner?

How could he believe in such rumors?

So you tricked me to come here so you could ask me to examine the body for Your Lord?

But I can pay you.

I can give you my entire month's salary!

Although I like money but I have scruples.

Unlike your Lord who confined me here

without a proper reason.

Right now I am a female prisoner of Your Lord.

So...there is nothing I can do.

My Lord has always been kind to you how can you abandon him at his time of need?

Kind?

His pay is quite generous.

But his actions..

is no different from human waste!

I forbid you to call His Lordship that!

It was Your Lord who took me to a crime scene using a fake wedding.

Causing my Father to break all ties from

And then using an investigation as an excuse to trick me into entering Guo Fu's den of debauchery.

Causing me to almost lose my chastity!

Because of Your Lord,

my reputation was in tatters!

That day, His Lordship knew that you didn't want to marry into the Su family

that was why he tried to save you through a wedding.

Such a nice front you used.

But we all know what the truth is.

It was His Lordship who told Su Fu to come and save you.

As soon as you went in he was extremely worried about you.

Not only did he stop the plan and rush inside to save you

And because he knew Guo Fu has that jade sea

that was why he told me to inform Su Fu to come and save you.

It was he who told Su Fu?

That's right, didn't Su Fu tell you?

His Lord never likes to explain his actions.

Let's put aside that he was struck by you unfairly.

He likes to uphold justice for others

yet he was treated unjustly by you for no reason!

I owe him that slap.

I will return it to him now.

You mean... you are willing to examine the body for him?

Please leave I wish for some peace alone.

Sure.

Why are you so good for nothing? We agreed to work together

yet I have to carry you out again.

Mouth and eyes are open.

Both of his hands are in clenched in fists.

His neck... his arms...his legs...

all the wounds on the exposed skin are long and thin in shape.

The first half is thin and long.

but the other half has a puncture wound.

His back...also has similar wounds.

It does resemble scratch marks left by a clawed animal.

There are teeth marks by the neck.

Coming from top to bottom.

Length 2 inches.

Width 3 inches.

The shape of the teeth are different from a human's.

Depth is at least 2 inches.

The body is dry and deflated.

The skin is a dark Grey color.

And there are bruises throughout the body.

It does indeed loo as if he was sucked dry of blood.

Could it truly be...a snow demon?

There really is dark purple blood within his oral cavity.

Only that rabbit and loyal puppy tainted it with a different color

that was why I was unable to discover it right away.

And there is blood within his ears too.

The blood is dark purple here too.

After this body was poisoned

he was sucked dry of his blood.

Irregular specks of white fluid.

According to my investigation the victim is called Zhou Jin.

He was the son of a landowner.

Since young, he and his neighbor Feng Yuling had been close

but because their families opposed the match so they eloped a day ago.

There is another woman?

There was only Zhou Jin at the scene, where did Feng Yuling go?

I am unsure too.

But my guess is, could she have been frightened off when the

snow demon appeared?

As an official,

how can you believe tales like that?

I feel ashamed.

Only I do not understand how the body was sucked dry of blood.

Could Feng Yuling have committed this crime because of the resentment that

stemmed from hatred.

But this seems to be properly planned.

It seems this Feng Yuling is a key part of this.

We must find her.

What has Guo Fu been doing?

His movements are normal, and I have investigated everyone he has contact with. There is nothing suspicious.

But I discovered that there seems to be other people who have their eyes on Guo Fu too.

I have ordered my men to investigate them.

It seems like this Guo Fu is not simple.

Why is the door open?

Where are the guards?

How did I end up sleepwalking here? So tired, I'm going to sleep.

Xiao fish! I told you I'm here because I sleepwalked.

Alright, I'll tell you, I did examine the body.

But if was your woof woof who examined it for me.

My Lord

Where did the body go?

The snow demon came.

In the future without my orders I forbid you from examining the body.

Your cowardly medical examiner has resigned from his position.

How could he say something as ridiculous as it was the work of a snow demon?

He really is the shame of the medical examining field!

But.... although the body has disappeared

but I risked my life just now to finish examining the body.

You don't seem to understand what I said?

The victim's blood was sucked dry.

And there are traces of bite and claw marks from and animal all over his body.

But before his blood was sucked dry,

he was already poisoned.

What was the poison?

Not sure yet.

He was engaged in sexual activity before his death.

How did you know?

I examined his lower body part.

It's covered with splatters of semen.

Bai Yi.

Here.

Lock her up in the room!

Xiao fish, first it was confinement in the manor,

now I'm confined in my room?

-The snow demon is here! You don't dare to touch it but me! -Shut up.

-You really are a den of rats and snakes! -Shut up!

Xiao fish

You locked up Ran Yan?

On the surface,

you restricted her movements,

in reality,

you wish to protect her.

Master Su,

this is the vegetable pancake you ordered.

I did not expect your taste...to be like mine.

Ever considered changing your taste?

I like to persist to the end.

Miss Su my Miss asked me to deliver you your clothes I washed.

I am busy, I bid my leave.

When it rained the other day, she was soaked to the skin.

so I got her to change into my clothes.

Soaked to the skin will damage her health.

It's natural she would change into clean clothes.

Please hand this to Ran Yan.

Please return this to Ran Yan for me. She left it...on my bed that day.

The Master has an unpredictable mood.

One minute he's aloof and put's on his minister attitude.

The next he is quite friendly and easy going.

The loyal puppy

One minute he is reasonable.

The next he tries to shrug off his debt to me.

Like Master like servant.

It's the snake demon.

Open the door! Open the door!

Snow demon! Snow demon!

What is this scent?

Sister Yin,

what's wrong?

Are you alright?

Your shoulder!

Why are you so disobedient? Didn't I tell you to not leave your room?

You forbid me from leaving!

-I will go anywhere I like! -You!

But....I only came out because I smelled a scent.

They were under the spell of a hallucinogen.

You investigate it, I will find the snow demon

Bai Yi.

Get someone to check the food and water.

Yes.

My Lord, we found a body round the back.

The name of the victim is Xu Kun.

And is staying at the manor with a girl named Xia Wu Xuang.

But...why is he dead here?

The condition of his body is the same as our previous victim.

And there are traces of animal bites on his body

His ears and mouth has blood he was also poisoned.

Perhaps he was not here before.

Only when he saw the snow demon,

he hid in this place.

But did not expect he would be killed by the snow demon.

Only this time...

he was not completely sucked dry.

Let go.

Fox. Men are lecherous over women.

What? You are lecherous too?

Have you not seen enough?

Do not take advantage of me.

This kind of ivy leaf is poisonous.

If you touch it, you will be poisoned.

What kind of ivy is it from?

This is thunder god vine.

It seems like both victims were poisoned by this vine.

What is the length and depth of the wounds on the neck of the corpse?

Length 2 inches.

Width 3 inches.

It's a complete match.

The snow demon did not suck his blood dry.

But someone pretended to be the snow demon.

Finally they used the thunder god vine to remove all the blood from the body.

It's a shame that we came too quickly.

So not all the blood managed to flow out of the orifices.

This killer first gave us a hallucinogen.

So that we can see snow demons appearing creating chaos.

Then lured Xu Qun here

and executing the murder.

It seems that the killer is familiar with the Yingmei manor.

Perhaps....they are from the manor.

But who is it?

My Lord after investigating this meal,

I discovered that it contains devil's snare which causes illusions

Who...cooked this meal?

In reply to Your Lordship, it is Li Yuan our cook.

Was she around when I was taking me meal?

I have not seen her since this morning.

My Lord, the easiest person to put this in our food

is the cook.

She will not do such a thing!

Whether she will or not,

we will know when we arrest her!

What was written on the letter?

Nothing much.

My Lord.

Found a packet of powder.

This...

This...

My Lord do you have a headache again?

Why is he so badly injured?

I am fine.

Help me to my room.

Yes.

You...what do you want?

I am here to deliver your medicine.

Sit up, I will put some medicine on your wound.

Bai Yi has tended my wound already.

It's still bleeding.

Bai Yi's medicine is no good. Only mine is.

Remove your clothes.

[What Liu Can was looking for is in my hands, come meet me in the pagoda tree forest on the hill behind us tomorrow at 9pm)

What is taking you so long?

All done, coming.

It may hurt a little.

Try and endure it.

I have experienced almost everything. This wound is nothing...

Do you repay your debts in this way?

I, fox always knows to repay her debts.

All done. I will leave now.

Go get some rest.

Be careful of Ran Yan.

Fox I only set this up to test you.

I hope you are innocent.

Where did my bracelet go?

Strange...

why can I smell the scent of the snow demon here

It looks like this table is often moved around.

Why was it moved frequently?

Save me

Are you alright?

I am afraid of the dark.

I cannot breathe.

Why are you here?

Last time..

did Xiao Song tell you

to go to the wrestling venue to save me?

Thank you.

For saving me once more.

As long as we find the pearl...

will you be able to exchange it for...

your Mother's body?

I also...

I am also trying to find my Mother too.

I have not been able to..

find my Mother's body even now.

When my Mother passed away,

everyone said

that I was the one who caused my Mother to die.

We are very

Xiao Song discovered a letter in Li Yuan's room.

Written on the letter was

I have what Liu Can was searching for,

tomorrow at 9pm,

meet me by the pagoda tree.

Why did you tell me?

Because of your mother.

When I was playing the Bili* just now,

there were echoes coming from in front, behind and left.

There were no echoes on the right.

the exit is on the right.

The snow demon left and entered the manor through this way?

We've searched the entire manor,

but why can we not find Li Yuan?

Where is Li Yuan hiding herself?

And how did she manage to take Xia Wuxuang away?

Bai Yi.
