Xiao family compound. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Although the sun was shining outside, the atmosphere in the antique study room was extremely oppressive and dreary.

Xiao Dongping, the contemporary helmsman of the Xiao family, had a gloomy face, walking around with his hands behind his back and a muffled voice, and more than a dozen men and women around him were standing or sitting, and they didn't dare to come out.

After a while, an old forensic doctor with half-bald hair hurriedly walked in, and everyone's attention was immediately focused on him.

"Professor Zhu, have there been any results from the autopsy?" the head of the Xiao family stared at him and asked in a deep voice.

The old forensic doctor nodded and said, "According to the appraisal results just obtained, Your Excellency Xiao Tong ...... It seems that it was because of acute blood poisoning, so he lost his life in a very short period of time!"

"Acute blood poisoning?" the people in the study looked at each other, surprised by this answer.

A fashionably dressed middle-aged woman questioned: "As far as I know, although the consequences of this disease are serious, it is not so bad that there is no chance of rescue, not to mention that Xiao Tong, a child who has always been healthy, how could he suffer from this disease inexplicably?"

Another man also said: "That's right, Xiao Tong won't get sick for no reason, and there is no warning in advance! Since something happened, there must be an unusual reason." ”

The old forensic doctor explained: "It's just that the symptoms look somewhat similar. To be precise, we detected a special toxin of unknown composition in the blood of His Excellency Xiao Tong, which caused the red blood cells to lose their normal function and undergo abnormal mass division and proliferation, blocking the blood vessels in the brain, thus causing ischemia and death of brain tissue!"

Xiao Dongping's face changed, and he said, "Toxin? That is, someone is going to assassinate Xiao Tong? Who did it?"

Forensic Doctor Zhu spread his hands and said helplessly: "The composition of this toxin is very strange, almost nothing to do with any known biological and chemical substances, I have never seen this kind of thing in my life in this industry!"

"At present, the only thing that can be confirmed is that this thing cannot be spread through airborne transmission, and it must enter the human body with the help of food, drinks and other mediums to have its effect, or it can be injected into the body. And it seems to have a period of incubation. ”

Xiao Dongping's face was cloudy, and he groaned for a while without speaking.

There was a sound of hurried footsteps in high heels outside, Xiao Mengying rushed in like a gust of wind, and saw that the main relatives in the room had arrived, and asked in a trembling voice: "Dad, what's going on?" Xiao Tong ...... Why did he ...... all of a sudden?"

She learned the bad news in the morning and rushed back from the imperial capital by urgent charter flight.

Xiao Dongping looked at his daughter, his face softened slightly, and briefly recounted the results of the forensic analysis.

"Could it be...... What did he do?" Xiao Mengying muttered as her face turned pale.

is such a younger brother, and compared with other cousins and sisters in the family, this relationship is naturally closer. And she also counted on helping Xiao Tong win the qualification of the heir of the head of the family, and she was able to share the rights of the family's top leaders, but now it has come to naught.

Xiao Dongping looked at his daughter for a few seconds with cold eyes, and suddenly said, "You all go out first, Mengying stays." ”

The prestige of the head of the family was obviously extremely high, and everyone had no objection to his orders, and they got up and withdrew one after another.

When the door of the study was closed, Xiao Dongping stared at her and asked slowly, "Say, what's going on?"

"I don't know. Xiao Mengying said blankly.

"I don't know, huh!"

Xiao Dongping sneered, and suddenly said, "A few months ago, did you secretly instruct someone to attack the Wei family's kid?"

"This ......" Xiao Mengying wanted to deny it, but when she touched her father's cold gaze, she finally nodded a little weakly.

"Sure enough, you made a stupid thing!"

Xiao Dong's face turned blue with anger, and he pointed at her and reprimanded her fiercely: "I have long reminded you to use your brain more when considering things, don't always think about opportunism and playing side ways......!

Xiao Mengying was scolded by her father so white that she bit her lip and didn't say a word, tears rolling in her eyes.

Xiao Dongping does have reason to be angry, the circle of the upper class has its own rules of the game, no matter how many dirty contradictions there are in private, many families or forces still have to abide by the bottom line of principles on the surface, and there can be no behavior that is too out of line.

Methods that cannot be put on the table, such as assassination and framing, are the most taboo among those in power. After all, if you do the first year of junior high school, others will do the fifteenth. It's nothing more than who has more money!

Once the normal rules of the game in the entire circle are destroyed, and everyone is in danger, everyone doesn't have to do anything else, and each of them raises a group of masters to kill each other!

Therefore, unless there is a major conflict of interest that is vital to life and death, or when they are cornered, no one will easily take risks and risk the consequences of being rejected and hostile by the entire upper circle to use this method against their enemies.

What's more, there are still state organs staring at it, and today's Chinese government is extremely strong and has extremely strong control over the domestic situation, and no matter how big the family or power is, it is impossible to have the capital to challenge the state apparatus.

Therefore, for an old opponent like the Wei family, although the senior management of the Xiao family was extremely angry and dissatisfied, they did not intend to take such means to break the rules of the game, and could only fight back within the scope of the rules.

However, the young and vigorous Xiao Mengying sister and brother didn't think about it so much, in order to make some achievements as soon as possible to prove themselves in front of the elders, the sister and brother came up with such a bad idea that they thought they were clever.

Needless to say, what happened later, the matter was revealed, the Wei family has enough evidence in their hands, and they are recently appealing to the higher-level forces through some channels, so it can be predicted that the Xiao family's next days will not be very easy.

Xiao Dongping scolded for a while before stopping, grabbed the already cold tea cup on the table, opened it and drank a few sips, and said hatefully: "You don't have to stay at home, just roll me to the Americas immediately, live for a year and a half, and come back when the wind passes!"

Xiao Mengying nodded honestly, thought about it and asked boldly, "That's ...... What about my brother's affairs? The Wei family is too ruthless, we ......"

"The situation is not in our favor now, no matter what kind of thoughts you have, we can only endure it at the moment!" Xiao Dongping gritted his teeth and said: "Sooner or later, this account will have to be recovered from them!"

scolded and scolded, but after all, these two sisters and brothers are the flesh and blood of the head of the family, so it is impossible for Xiao Dongping to face outsiders.

It's just that Xiao Tong's cause of death is too bizarre, and he died in his own family, which has nothing to do with the Wei family on the surface, so even if the Xiao family believes that the Wei family did it, they can't come up with a little convincing evidence.

The Wei family has evidence in their hands but the Xiao family does not, which means that in front of the superiors in the circle, the Xiao family will become extremely passive, and in order to calm down the matter, it is indispensable to come up with a lot of benefits to fight up and down.

So no matter how big the dissatisfaction is, Xiao Dongping can only endure this evil breath and look for an opportunity to fight back in the future.

……

“…… Xiao Tong's funeral will be held in three days, and there is no unusual behavior on the part of the Xiao family's higher-ups. ”

In the sports car, Wei Lingyun drove while facing the stunning girl next to him and said: "It's that Xiao Mengying, I heard that she was reprimanded by her father behind closed doors, and she got on a flight to the Americas that night, and she didn't even plan to attend her brother's funeral." ”

Zhao Xinglan smiled indifferently and said, "The helmsman of the Xiao family looks very shrewd!"

Wei Lingyun muttered: "I think so too, maybe he is afraid that his daughter will also have an accident, so he sent her away so urgently, and will come back when the rumor passes." ”

Zhao Xinglan smiled and said nothing, sure enough, the head of the Xiao family still has a brain, although he can't figure out the cause of his son's death, but based on his rich experience and intuition, he made the most accurate decision so far, thus temporarily saving his daughter's life.

After all, the current Mother Emperor Battle Split has not yet been able to take any action against the Americas on the other side of the ocean, so it can only let that Xiao Mengying live for a while.
