Chapter 1517: Chapter 1517: The corpse, yet will expose them

"Yes, let’s first check out those two outside," Lin Caisang nodded.

As they spoke, the two of them headed outside, and the two walking corpses had already stood up. Although their bodies were bound, their feet were still moving.

Even if they could not take big steps, they still attempted to move step by step towards the outside.

But Sui Zimo had locked the courtyard door upon entering, so naturally, those two walking corpses couldn’t escape.

His eyes sharpened, and he swiftly flashed in front of the two, bringing them back.

"Sang’er."

"Mm."

Seeing Sui Zimo’s gaze turn to her, Lin Caisang immediately responded and walked over.

"Apart from their hearts being gone, I really can’t find anything else wrong with these two," Lin Caisang eventually gave up her examination of the pair and looked up to tell Sui Zimo.

Yes, these two people, she had drawn their blood, normal; checked their pulses, normal; their breathing and everything else was normal as well.

Everything was normal, except their hearts were gone.

"Sang’er."

After pondering for a long time, Sui Zimo finally looked at Lin Caisang and spoke.

"When you were dissecting that corpse earlier, did you notice anything?" he asked.

"Notice something? No, wasn’t it just that their hearts were gone?" Lin Caisang replied.

But actually, during the dissection, she had felt that something was off, just that she couldn’t recall what it was at the moment.

"There wasn’t much blood," Sui Zimo said coldly.

At his words, Lin Caisang’s eyes lit up.

Yes, she had felt it strange when dissecting; the bodies were still warm. How could there have been so little blood, practically none?

And those two corpses were unusually pale, not as if they had been lying for a long time but rather like... they had lost too much blood.

"I understand now!"

She raised her hand, her index finger pointing at Sui Zimo.

The two of them rushed towards the room with the two corpses, but...

"Where are the corpses?"

The two bodies that should have been lying properly on the wooden boards were nowhere to be seen; all that remained was for Lin Caisang and Sui Zimo to stare at each other in bewilderment.

"They’ve been stolen," Sui Zimo said with a stern face.

It seemed the Demon Clan was not to be underestimated. Under their very noses, someone had managed to steal away the two corpses without a trace.

"Then..."

Lin Caisang immediately walked a few steps towards the door and looked at the two walking corpses in the courtyard.

They were still in the courtyard, taking their tiny shambling steps.

"They... are still here."

She looked at Sui Zimo with some astonishment.

These people didn’t take the living walking corpses back but chose to stealthily take away two dead bodies. What was the reasoning behind that?

"Living people can’t be harmed, but the corpses could expose them," Sui Zimo said with a cold expression.

Upon hearing his words, Lin Caisang understood.

Yes, just like before, she could leave the two walking corpses in the courtyard while she went to dissect a body in the room.

Because, in their eyes, the walking corpses were still salvageable, but the bodies could be manipulated however she wished.

After all, if one didn’t thoroughly research the strange phenomena here, how would they know what to do next, right?

"So they took these corpses back..."

She stopped mid-sentence, her mouth twitching forcefully as she recalled the scene she had witnessed in those five courtyards.

The walking corpses were grabbing handfuls of food and meat, stuffing it into their mouths.
