After Descending the Mountain, Seven Big Brothers Spoil Me

Chapter 1088 Zhouzhou: Professional Grave Digger for a Century

No way.

Qin Bei charged forward without hesitation.

Zhouzhou instinctively took a step aside, and at the same time, Qin Ren and the rest of the children behind her subtly moved a couple of steps back as well.

Qin Bei stumbled and fell flat on his face with a loud "smack," completely dazed for a moment.

It took him quite a while to regain his senses, and when he looked up, he saw all six brothers and his sister standing around, but not a single one of them offered to help him up!

Qin Nan sighed regretfully when he saw that Qin Bei wasn't injured, just a little dirty. "What a pity. It was such a perfect opportunity."

Qin Bei, furious, scrambled to his feet, ready to confront them, but just then, Qin Lie shot him a cold glance, causing him to swallow his words immediately.

Qin Lie turned his gaze toward Zhouzhou, noticing something was off in her expression. His brows furrowed. "What's wrong?"

Zhouzhou pursed her lips slightly, took a step in a certain direction, signaling that she was heading somewhere.

Qin Dong's nose twitched, his eyes narrowing.

He smelled a stench.

As for the source...

His expression stiffened, and he followed Zhouzhou.

Soon, the two stopped at a particular spot.

Qin Xi followed closely, observed the soil on the ground, and said, "The top layer of soil seems off, it's been disturbed. Someone dug here."

Qin Bei approached, puzzled. "Really? It all looks the same to me."

Qin Nan sneered, "If you could even notice it, then it must be really obvious."

"You!"

As the two began to argue again, Qin Ren frowned at them. "Shut up."

The two fell silent immediately, exchanging a glance of mutual defiance.

"There's a body under the soil," Qin Dong sniffed, confirming.

Qin Xi glanced at him and said, "If Third Brother says there is, then there definitely is. His sense of smell is the best. We in the police force even call him the human police dog in private."

As soon as the words left his mouth, Qin Dong's eyes flicked toward him.

Qin Xi grinned at him. "It's a compliment."

Qin Dong dismissed him with a faint look and then turned to Zhouzhou. "Do you need to call anyone to help?"

Zhouzhou shook her head. "No need, Third Brother. You're a forensic expert, Fourth Brother and Second Uncle are both police officers. With all of you here, we're good."

Qin Dong asked, "Then what about the body?"

"I'll take care of it!" Zhouzhou slapped her chest confidently and then pulled a small shovel from her bag.

Her sudden action took everyone by surprise, and they couldn't help but look again at her bag.

His fear was almost excessive.

Qin Xu shook his head and went to help out.

Meanwhile, Zhouzhou continued circling around, hoping to locate the spirit.

While Third Brother and the others were conversing with the body using their scalpel, she figured her task would be simpler.

However, before she could find the spirit, her steps stopped.

She sniffed the air, looked at the dirt beneath her feet, and then glanced toward another nearby spot. Her brows furrowed tightly.

"Second Uncle," she called, turning to Qin Xu.

Qin Xu approached her and, seeing her serious expression, asked, "What's wrong?"

Zhouzhou didn't say anything but walked over to one side, lowering her head to examine the soil beneath her feet.

Qin Xu looked down and instantly felt a chilling sensation. His face darkened.

They exchanged a glance, and quickly made a decision. They would split up and search the area.

After four hours, the two had practically turned the whole mountain upside down. When they returned, their expressions were grim, their faces pale.

"Qin Xi, come help us," Qin Xu said in a low voice.

"Coming," Qin Xi responded, and ran over. Seeing their faces, he asked in confusion, "What happened?"

"There's more than one body here."

"What?" Qin Xi froze for a moment.

However, Zhouzhou's next words made his face change immediately.

"Second Uncle and I found six more."

That brought the total to seven bodies.

Moreover, each body was buried similarly, with grass growing on top.

The grass was all the same height, and she couldn't help but suspect that someone had intentionally planted the seeds there.

It made her feel like it was all the work of one person.

Qin Xu had the same thought.

He took a deep breath and said, "Let's dig them up first."

"This situation is too serious; we need to inform the local police."

If it had only been one body, they might have handled it on their own, but with seven, and who knew how many more there might be, it was clear that the local police would have a better understanding of the case.

With that, he made a call.

Zhouzhou and Qin Xi also picked up their tools and got to work.

When Grandpa and Grandma Qin learned about the situation, they both gasped in shock. Their faces drained of color. Seven bodies!

How could there be so many?
