Chapter 44: Clues
Killing people is not enough, how can you punish people and destroy people's desires.
If it is a normal revenge in the rivers and lakes, Xia Fan is too lazy to meddle with it, but there is a debtor and a master, and if he is looking for revenge, it will be outrageous to destroy people, unless everyone is full of evil people.
And the murderers who committed the tragedy of destroying the door one after another in Fu'an County have undoubtedly reached the point of extinction of humanity, the bad killing, the good killing, as long as it is a powerful family, I will kill it.
He knew that this kind of situation would indeed happen if the social class contradictions intensified to a certain extent, and if the world was like this, Xia Fan would naturally stand by and watch, because this was already a historical tide that no human could resist.
The question is what about the murderer who destroyed the door?
Is the other party a monster created by social class contradictions, or a murderer with ulterior motives?
Xia Fan wanted to know the answer.
Early the next morning.
Xia Fan and Shi Xiaofei went to the scene of the murder together.
"Virtuous heirloom. ”
Standing in front of a vermilion gate with a seal, Xia Fan looked up at the four big characters written on the door plaque, and read it softly in his mouth.
"Seniors, juniors have inquired, the owner of this mansion is surnamed Gong, and he is a well-known local family in Fu'an County, but unfortunately four days ago, hundreds of people from the other party's entire clan were poisoned, and none of them were spared. ”
Shi Xiaofei sighed beside him.
"Haven't the local powerful people found any clues about the murderer these days?"
With that, Xia Fan turned around and walked towards the other side of the street as if nothing had happened.
"Seniors, juniors can't inquire about this kind of news. Shi Xiaofei said helplessly. And even if the local powerful clan finds out the clues, it is impossible to leak them out, so as not to startle the snake and arouse the vigilance of the murderer. ”
Walking and walking, Xia Fan suddenly turned into a narrow alley, Shi Xiaofei followed behind him, and he didn't know where Xia Fan wanted to take him for a while, but halfway through, Xia Fan suddenly stopped.
"Come out. ”
He turned around and said calmly.
"Your Excellency is really perceptive, I didn't expect to find out in the morning. ”
As soon as the words fell, a young man in a black power suit walked out of the wall door.
"When I was looking at the door plaque in front of the mansion, I noticed that someone was spying nearby, and you must have sent someone from the local powerful clan, right?"
Xia Fan glanced at the slender and extraordinary young man in front of him and said.
"Exactly!" the young man arched his hand at Xia Fan as if he didn't care. "In the lower Minshan faction, dare to ask Your Excellency's surname?"
"Xia Fan. ”
Xia Fan said coldly.
"My name is Shi Xiaofei!"
Shi Xiaofei beside him introduced himself at the same time.
"Xia Fan?"
The young man frowned, perhaps dissatisfied with Xia Fan for not reporting his origin, or perhaps he couldn't remember that there was such a person in the rivers and lakes.
He is quite confident in his own strength, and if the other party is really a nobody, it is impossible for the other party to detect his tracking.
But the rivers and lakes are so big, there is never a shortage of unknown talents.
So the young man was not overly entangled, but he had an inexplicable sense of familiarity after hearing Shi Xiaofei's name.
"Tell me why you're following us. ”
But then Xia Fan interrupted his thinking with a loud voice.
"Of course, I suspect that the two of them are related to the real culprit of the destruction of the door during this time. Dynn said with a look of course.
"I remember that the murderer did like to return to the scene of the crime after committing the crime, but I think you are mistaken, the two of us only came to Fu'an County yesterday, and you can verify this from the guards who were in charge of the investigation at the city gate at the time. ”
Xia Fan said calmly.
"So you're misunderstanding the two of you?" said Dinn disapprovingly.
"I understand your eagerness to chase the murderer, if it were me, maybe I would have made the same choice. Xia Fan said lightly. "But you've got it in the wrong direction. ”
"Why did Your Excellency say that?" Ding En's expression suddenly turned right.
"I guess you've tried your best to track it down so far, but you haven't found anything, right?" Xia Fan asked instead of answering.
"How did Your Excellency guess?" said Dinn with a serious expression.
"Because if there was a gain, you wouldn't be here, and you wouldn't have come to us with the mentality that you'd rather kill mistakes than let go. ”
Xia Fan's meaning is self-evident.
"I see. Dynn said thoughtfully. "Then dare to ask your Excellency why you claim that we are looking in the wrong direction?"
"Before that, I have a question that you need to answer me. Xia Fan said. "Before the tragedy of the Gong family, were you already tracking down the murderer?"
"It is true. Dynn didn't hide it. "It's a pity that we didn't take any precautions to prevent the murderer, but we still succeeded in poisoning the palace family, and we all feel deeply guilty for this. ”
"Since the murderers have committed massacres in Fu'an County one after another, it shows that the other party has no intention of giving up, presumably you have also thought about taking advantage of this and secretly laying traps and waiting for the other party to fall into the net?" Xia Fan asked seemingly casually.
"Your Excellency is right, we did have this arrangement, but the results have all ended in failure. Dynn said with a look of regret.
"How many people were in the know at that time?" Xia Fan immediately asked.
"Except for the heads of various families, there are only about a dozen people including me. Dynn said without thinking.
"So, have you ever thought about a question?" Xia Fan suddenly showed an intriguing smile. "Suppose the murderer is among you?"
"Your Excellency means ......"
When Ding En heard this, his face changed instantly.
"Okay, if the murderer is really between you, I guess you don't need me to teach you how to find the murderer, right?"
After speaking, Xia Fan turned around and ignored the other party and left directly.
"Your Excellency!"
By the time Ding En reacted, Xia Fan and Shi Xiaofei had already disappeared into the alley.
"Senior, is what you just said true? Is it really possible that the murderer is someone inside them?"
Shi Xiaofei, who had been silent during the period, finally couldn't help but ask.
"I don't know, I'm just talking nonsense. Xia Fan said casually. "Anyway, TV dramas are generally played like this, and there is a saying that there is an inner ghost among us. ”
TV series?
"Senior, aren't you afraid that you've guessed wrong?" Shi Xiaofei shook off the distracting thoughts that came out of his mind.
"If you guess wrong, you guess wrong. Xia Fan didn't care. "After all, I'm not Sherlock Holmes, not even a 10,000-year-old elementary school student, except for even guessing, do you really think I have the ability to solve cases?"
"Then senior, why did you come out today?" Shi Xiaofei said confusedly.
"Shop more, walk more, ask more. ”
Xia Fan walked leisurely on the street.
"Didn't that fool just now make me say a lot of things?"
