Chapter 42: Ill-gotten Gains: Lai San died
A purple figure fell from the sky, standing on the black hilt with one foot, it was Zhang Hao who came in a hurry.
Lai San got up from the ground, looked at Zhang Hao who fell from the sky in horror, pointed at Zhang Hao, smacked his mouth, and exclaimed, "You ...... It's you! ”
Zhang Hao looked at Lai San, his eyes froze when he swept over his hand, and said coldly: "Hmph, it's me, don't you retreat quickly!" ”
Lai San was humiliated in public, and he was immediately furious, and he was angry with his guts, pointing his finger at Zhang Hao, and shouting: "I will kill him for my uncle!" ”
As soon as all the evil servants heard this, you look at me, I look at you, and then they all pulled out daggers from their waists and rushed towards Zhang Hao with a strange scream.
Zhang Hao snorted coldly, and was about to teach them some lessons, when suddenly Zhu Jiuwei screamed, jumped out, held a black sledgehammer, and smashed it towards the ground.
With a loud "boom", the granite floor was instantly torn apart and scattered.
All the evil servants were shocked, and were shocked by Zhu Jiu's abrupt hand, and they didn't dare to step forward again, and looked back at Lai San.
Lai San swallowed his saliva, he didn't expect this fat man who was lazy to eat and make on weekdays to be so powerful, not to mention Zhang Hao, who was even more impressive.
Lai San weighed left and right, glanced at Zhang Hao and Zhu Jiu viciously, didn't dare to stay any longer, and fled with his tail between his legs.
When everyone in Donghua Academy saw that they had driven Lai San away, they finally breathed a sigh of relief, and then looked at their great benefactors Zhang Hao and Zhu Jiu.
"Benefactor, thank you for saving me again, Li Yan is grateful!" Li Yan took all the junior brothers and sisters forward, bowed his hand to Zhang Hao, and thanked him.
Zhu Jiu stepped forward and said dissatisfiedly: "Li Yan, how can you favor one over the other and not thank me Lao Zhu?" ”
Li Yan was stunned, then laughed, and bowed his hand and thanked: "Thank you Zhu Gongzi!"
As soon as Zhu Jiu's hand flipped over, the black sledgehammer disappeared, and he muttered in his mouth: "Just thank you for a fart, not for any actual thing!"
Everyone saw Zhu Jiu's supernatural powers in their eyes, and they no longer dared to despise him. Li Yan didn't know what Zhu Jiu was referring to, so he couldn't help but turn his head to look at Zhang Hao.
Zhang Hao rolled his eyes secretly and pointed to his mouth.
Li Yan suddenly realized, and smiled boldly, and said: "Brother Zhu, wait a minute, I will set up a banquet in the city at noon, waiting for the two sons, what do you think, Master Zhu?"
When Zhu Jiu heard this, his round eyes shone brightly, touched his stomach, and said with a smile: "Haha, it's still Brother Li Yan!" As he spoke, Zhu Jiu touched his stomach, looked at everyone, smiled, and walked in the direction of the west.
Zhang Hao's old face flushed, seeing that the west where Zhu Jiu went was the location of the kitchen of Donghua Academy, this nerd must have heard the food, and the gluttonous insects moved again, so he went to the kitchen to steal food.
Everyone understands it, and they don't break it.
Li Yan laughed dryly, Zhang Hao was embarrassed, turned around and said loudly: "It's okay, it's all gone!"
The crowd dispersed in an uproar, leaving only Zhang Hao, Li Yan and Xie two sisters.
Zhang Hao suddenly seemed to remember something, and stepped forward and asked, "Brother Li, why did Lai San come to the door to make trouble today?"
Li Yan looked back at Xie Wanruo and said, "Hey, speaking of which, Lai San used to be the gardener of my Donghua Academy, responsible for the pruning of the trees in the academy, but I don't know why this Lai San suddenly had money, and he became bolder, so he entangled himself with what he never dreamed of before."
Zhang Hao's brows gradually wrinkled, his eyes bloomed with two divine lights, and he muttered: "No wonder Lai San's hand joints are bloated, I just said that he doesn't look like a rich man, he turned out to be a nouveau riche, that's right......"
Everyone was confused and didn't know why.
Li Yan couldn't help but step forward and said, "Benefactor, this ......"
Zhang Hao didn't care about it, muttering something that others didn't understand and went straight to his room.
Li Yan was about to stretch out his hand to call Zhang Hao, but Xie Wanru stepped forward to stop him, shook his head, and said, "Senior brother, this is how Zhang Gongzi thinks about things, don't bother him!"
Li Yan looked at Zhang Hao, then at Xie Wanru, and finally shook his head helplessly, and said, "Let's go, it's not too early, let's go to the drunken fairy to come to the restaurant to make a good banquet for Engong!"
The two sisters, Xie Wanru and Xie Wanruo, nodded and followed Li Yan.
Just after the three of them left, a figure flashed out from behind the door of Donghua Academy, dressed in white, handsome, but with a gloomy face, it was Qian Tao. Qian Tao looked at Li Yan and Zhang Hao in the two directions they were walking, his brows furrowed tightly, his eyes spewed a terrifying cold light, and he walked out quickly.
……
Scenes flashed in Zhang Hao's mind.
Mr. Xie was killed, Li Yan was wrongfully imprisoned, and Lai San suddenly became rich......
"What's the connection?" Zhang Hao frowned, sitting at the head of the bed without moving.
This sitting was about an hour, and suddenly Zhang Hao's face changed greatly, and he flashed out of the door with a "whoosh", shouting: "Fatty, go quickly, something is going to happen!"
Zhu Jiuzheng was sleeping by himself, and was awakened by Zhang Hao's voice, and wanted to sleep again, but suddenly felt that something seemed to be wrong in Zhang Hao's voice, and instantly fell asleep, got up and rushed out, shouting: "Brother Hao, wait for me Lao Zhu!"
Zhang Hao and Zhu Jiu came to the main gate of Donghua Academy and were about to leave, when they suddenly heard someone calling for themselves, and couldn't help but look back.
"Zhang Gongzi, Zhang Gongzi...... Wait......"
"You're calling me?" Zhang Hao looked at the scholar in front of him, pointed to himself, and asked suspiciously.
The scholar-looking man nodded and said, "It's just calling Gongzi, Senior Brother Li Yan has booked a banquet in Drunken Immortal, and invited the two Gongzi over."
When Zhu Jiu heard this, his round eyes suddenly lit up, and he shouted: "Okay, okay, you let Li Yan stay for a while, and Brother Hao and I will go over immediately."
"Yes!"
As soon as the scholar arched his hand and was about to leave, Zhang Hao said, "Slow!"
The scholar paused, turned around and said respectfully: "Zhang Gongzi, what else do you have to order?"
Zhu Jiu "chuckled" in his heart, and the secret way was not good.
Sure enough, Zhang Hao said: "You go to sue Li Yan, we won't go, by the way, do you know where the three families of Nalai are?"
"Lai San?" The scholar was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Lai San lives on the street not far from Donghua Academy, and he only moved there recently!"
Zhang Hao's eyes narrowed, and he said, "You take the two of me quickly, and you will inform Li Yan later!" After speaking, no matter how the scholar reacted, he pulled him and ran out.
Zhu Jiu paused on the spot, and then followed dejectedly, and kept cursing in his mouth: "You pig-headed Lai San, but at this time, Brother Hao remembered you, it's really hard to die!"
After a while, Zhang Hao came to the outside of Lai San's mansion. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a mansion, the place where Lai San lives is the most prosperous part of Baili City, and this mansion is made of fine glazed tiles and flower rocks, and the momentum is extraordinary.
"Oh no, no, the lord is dead, the lord hanged himself!" Zhang Hao and the others were about to go in, when someone suddenly ran out and shouted.
When Zhang Hao heard this, his brows furrowed, and he grabbed the servant and asked in surprise: "What did you say, who died?"
The servant was already panicked at this time, and when he saw Zhang Hao asking, he also replied truthfully: "The master is dead, Lai San is dead, Lai San is dead, Lai San is dead......"
Zhang Hao put the servant down and muttered, "It's still a step too late!"
Immediately, Zhang Hao and Zhu Jiu walked straight to Lai Sanfuzhong, and the scholars who came with them didn't dare to stay longer, so they spread their legs and went to the drunken immortals, thinking that they were going to inform Li Yan about the matter.
At this time, there was already chaos in Lai's mansion, and Zhang Hao and others did not stop them from entering Lai's mansion.
This Lai San hanged himself to death, his long tongue was outstretched, his face was purple, his eyes were protruding, and his appearance was extremely terrifying.
When Zhu Jiu saw Lai San's appearance, his brain suddenly went numb with horror, his eyes widened, and he hid behind Zhang Hao with a strange scream.
Zhang Hao glanced at him angrily and said, "Fat man, what's so scary, it's just a dead corpse."
Zhu Jiu poked his head out, glanced at Lai San, and said with a strange smile: "Uh, that...... There's really nothing to be afraid of!"
With Zhang Hao here, Zhu Jiu's courage gradually grew, he looked back and forth on the ground, and suddenly his eyes lit up, and he shouted: "Brother Hao, my old Zhu has found out!"
When Zhang Hao heard this, he was also interested, smiled, and said, "Oh? What did you find?"
Zhu Jiu smiled, pointed to the chair on the ground, and said, "Brother Hao, look at this chair, it seems to be a little short!"
Zhang Hao laughed and said, "Fatty, it's really a bit of a doorway, but it's ......."
Zhu Jiu was stunned for a moment and said, "Uh, Brother Hao, but what?"
Zhang Hao flipped his hand, and with the cyan energy, he helped the chair on the ground under Lai San's feet.
Zhu Jiu's eyes straightened, and he exclaimed, "Brother Hao, this ...... Why can't Lai San's feet reach this chair!"
Zhang Hao nodded, touched his chin, and said, "It's really not enough, it's just that this Lai San is indeed dead!"
Zhu Jiu leaned down and compared the distance between Lai San's feet and the chair, and finally stood up and exclaimed, "Brother Hao, this is ...... That's not right, Lai San's feet are at least a palm's length from the stool, he ...... How did he kill himself?"
The corners of Zhang Hao's mouth curled, revealing his signature smile, and said, "Yes, this shows that Lai San did not commit suicide, but killed him!"
"He kills!" Zhu Jiuyi jumped high and looked around, looking vigilant.
"Fatty, do you remember that water ghost?" Zhang Hao said to Zhu Jiu.
Zhu Jiu was stunned, grabbed Zhang Hao, and said in a trembling voice: "Brother Hao, you ...... Are you saying that Lai San was killed by the water ghost?"
Zhang Hao nodded and said: "** Don't leave ten, you look at the extremely cold air around you, obviously extraordinary people, the same as Mr. Xie's death, I'm afraid it is inseparable from that water ghost!"
Zhu Jiu's face twitched, and he said, "Brother Hao, that water ghost...... Who the hell is the water ghost?"
Zhang Hao didn't speak, his eyes swept around, and he said lightly: "Hey, what is that?"
Zhu Jiu took the opportunity to look at it and said, "Brother Hao, it's a letter!" As he spoke, Zhu Jiu took out an envelope from under the tea set and handed it to Zhang Hao.
Zhang Hao took it, opened the envelope, spread it out, and at a glance, the three big characters of "confession" came into his eyes.
"The sinner Lai San, because he coveted Miss Xie Er's beauty like a girl, peeped at Miss Xie Er twice three times, and when he peeped at Miss Wanru once, he was accidentally broken by Mr. Xie and called into the study. The villain knows that he is guilty of a deep sin, and today he committed suicide by hanging a beam, to thank the old gentleman for his spirit in the sky!"
"Brother Hao, according to what you say, this confession is naturally fake?" Zhu Jiu pointed to the confession in Zhang Hao's hand and said.
"Hmph, I'm afraid this is the murderer's plan again, I'm afraid that the matter will be exposed, and the murder will be extinguished!" Zhang Hao's eyes flashed with fine light.
"Damn, this murderer first framed Li Yan, and this time he didn't even let go of the dead, it's really hateful!" Zhu Jiuyuan's eyes widened, and he snorted angrily.
"Get out of the way, get out of the way!"
At this moment, a pair of officials rushed in, and the person at the head was Tieyuan.
When Tie Yuan saw Zhang Hao and Zhu Jiu, he hurriedly arched his hand and said: "It turned out to be Zhang Gongzi and Zhu Gongzi, Tie Yuan was rude!"
Zhang Hao smiled faintly and replied: "It's more polite to catch the head of the iron head!"
Tie Yuan nodded lightly to Zhang Hao, looked back at Lai San, shook his head helplessly, and said, "Hey, this Lai San is also a blessed person, he just made a windfall, but he lost his life for no reason, it's really sad!"
Zhang Hao's eyes narrowed and said, "Hmph, you have to pay the price for taking ill-gotten gains!"
Tie Yuan was taken aback and said, "Zhang Gongzi, you ...... Are you saying that Lai San did not commit suicide, but he killed him?"
Zhang Hao nodded noncommittally and said, "Tie Zhutou, I still have something to do, so I won't bother and say goodbye!"
Tie Yuan hurriedly arched his hand and said: "Son, please take care of yourself, Tie Yuan still has official business, it is inconvenient to send him off, please forgive Zhang Gongzi!"
Zhang Hao shook his head slightly and said, "You're polite!" With that, he and Zhu Jiu walked out.
As soon as Zhang Hao and Zhu Jiu went out, Zhang Hao suddenly paused and said, "Fatty, why haven't you seen seven killings recently?"
Zhu Jiuyi said, "Well, it seems that I haven't seen this femme fatale for a long time!"
Zhang Hao has been busy investigating the case in the past few days, but he forgot about the seven murders for a while, and when he thought about it at this time, he couldn't help but be a little worried.
Zhu Jiu saw Zhang Hao's brows furrowed, and couldn't help but comfort: "Brother Hao, that femme fatale is much deeper than you and me, and besides, she is not a person who can suffer, so don't worry about it!"
Zhang Hao nodded and said, "Yes!"
At this moment, Li Yan's hurried voice sounded.
"Engong, I heard that Lai San died?"
Zhang Hao nodded and said, "Well, Lai San is indeed dead!"
When Li Yan got Zhang Hao's confirmation, he actually laughed out loud and shouted: "Haha, it's really a cycle of heavenly principles, retribution is not happy, this is all the bad things that have been done, and he should have died a long time ago!"
Zhang Hao shook his head slightly, thinking in his heart: "This Li Yan is broad by nature, he will say whatever he thinks, I'm afraid he will cause more trouble in the future!"
Li Yan saw Zhang Hao's brows furrowed, and said, "Gongzi Zhang, you ...... What's wrong with you?"
Zhang Hao looked at Li Yan and said with a frown: "That Lai San suddenly became rich, it must be related to the cause of Mr. Xie's death, I just thought from here, Lai San was killed again, and now the clues are broken, and the case is becoming more and more confusing!"
