Chapter 42: Murder and Silence

Lin Fan and others, under the leadership of Xu Fengnian, walked into the cottage, and finally came to the hall, only to see a plaque in the center of the hall, with three big characters on it.

Good guy, if there were not any less pillars outside, and there was no banner for Tianxingdao, otherwise Lin Fan would have thought that he had arrived at Liangshan.

"A few people, please wait here, Qian Bolin, you go and call Tian Hu over." After Xu Fengnian invited a few people to sit down, he ordered the deputy gang leader to find Tian Hu, and Qian Bolin answered, turned around and left Zhongyi Hall.

In less than a cup of tea, Qian Bolin walked back with a frown, and whispered in Xu Fengnian's ear: "The doors and windows of Tian Hu's room are locked from the inside, and no one will pay attention to him no matter how he greets him." ”

"Is this reasonable, and now it has become a turtle with a shrunken head? Did any of you reveal the news to him? Xu Fengnian said angrily, saying that he took Ling Yan and others to the residential area of the cottage, and came to the door of Tian Hu's room, and saw that the doors and windows were locked from the inside, Xu Fengnian was furious and kicked the door open.

When everyone walked into the room, they found Tian Hu lying alone on the table and seemed to be in a coma, Qian Bolin ran forward quickly, checked Tian Hu's situation, and then showed a look of horror on his face, and said with difficulty that he was dead.

"Did you commit suicide in fear of sin?" Lingsha asked suspiciously.

"If you come out to resist, I will look up to him." Jiang Yun said disdainfully.

Cheng Pu grinned and said, "Second Senior Brother, you just said that your hands are itchy, are you unwilling to fight if you don't succeed?" ”

"I don't think my hands are itchy, it's yours who are itching!" Jiang Yun glared at Cheng Pu and said.

Zi Xuan checked the room and found that except for the door being kicked open, there were no other signs of damage to the doors and windows, and frowned: "It seems that there is no other exit, it shouldn't be that someone killed him, otherwise how did the murderer get out?" It's impossible to disappear into thin air. ”

"Could it be a murder in a closed room?" Lin Fan blurted out.

"It's strange, how can suicide drug yourself?" Cheng Pu walked to Tian Hu's table and found that the liquid left in the teacup that had been drunk contained drugs.

Ling Yan carefully examined Tian Hu's corpse, and found that the corpse was soft and had body temperature, it should have just died, there was ringworm on the skin of the corpse, and there were many scratches left by scratches left on it, but there were no other external injuries, and after examining his mouth, he concluded that Tian Hu should have been poisoned.

"How could this be, just like this, Brother Tian Hu was separated from our yin and yang." Qian Berlin sighed sadly.

Xu Fengnian arched his hand towards Ling Yan in shame and said: "Ling Zhutou, it seems that this matter can't be investigated, you can take this person's body away, Xu will rectify the gang in the near future, and it will not cause similar incidents to happen again, you think this is good." ”

"Don't jump to conclusions." Ling Yan suddenly smiled weirdly, stared at Qian Berlin with straight eyes, and continued: "Tian Hu, who originally found your gang, has indeed found the end, and the rest are all small fish and shrimp, when Tian Hu summons everything, you can dispose of it yourself, or hand it over to me, but now that he is dead, this matter will be interesting." ”

"What do you mean by that?" Xu Fengnian asked puzzled.

What else does it mean, it means that the mastermind behind the scenes is not this Tian Hu, but someone else, Tian Hu is obviously killed, a person who wants to commit suicide in fear of sin, how can he drug himself? It's not a painkiller, so the new machine digs a black head. ”

Lin Fan said proudly, and suddenly saw everyone looking at him in astonishment, and hurriedly changed his words: "So there is only one truth, but the truth of this matter, we have to let Deputy Gang Leader Qian tell us about it, he is playing with the light and the dark." ”

"That's right, it was you who killed Tian Hu, the deputy gang leader might as well tell us about it." Ling Yan glanced at Lin Fan approvingly, and then said affirmatively.

Qian Bolin was stunned for a moment, and said angrily: "You guys don't talk nonsense, how could I kill Brother Tian Hu?" ”

"The motive, of course, is because the mastermind behind this child abduction and trafficking case is not the owner of Tianhu Altar, but you, the deputy gang leader, and you want to kill him." Ling Yan explained confidently.

Qian Berlin laughed angrily and asked, "Oh? Tell me how I killed him and ran out with the doors and windows locked from the inside. ”

"When the Xu gang leader asked you to summon Tian Hu, you planned to kill him, but you didn't want to expose yourself, so you came to his room, drugged him in his teacup, and then didn't know what to say to him, coaxed him to lock the doors and windows in the room and hid, and when we came, Tian Hu was drugged and lay on the table, but in fact he didn't die, you pretended to come forward to check his situation, but in fact killed him, so that he pretended to commit suicide in fear of crime, or murder in a secret room, to achieve the purpose of confusing the public. As for your method of killing, it should have been to pierce him with a small hidden weapon coated with poison, such as a silver needle, because he had ringworm, a large area of scratches on his body, and the broken skin and oozing blood covered the small wounds, so it seemed that there were no other external injuries. Ling Yan explained.

"You are talking nonsense, this is all your speculation, do you have evidence?" Qian Berlin defended unrelentingly.

"Evidence? You haven't left since you came in, and the murder weapon I wanted to use to commit the murder should still be on you now, do you need me to search you? Ling Yan said impatiently.

Seeing that the matter was revealed, Qian Bolin simply stopped pretending, he threw out the silver needle from between his fingers and threw it on the table.

"It's really you! How could you do such a heart-wrenching thing. Xu Fengnian looked at Qian Berlin in disbelief and said in a deep voice.

"Am I mad? Hahaha" Qian Bolin laughed unscrupulously, "You are high, you are amazing, why don't you mention Qinggao when you drink wine and eat meat?" As a member of the beggar gang, how long has it been since you have gone out to beg? If you don't know how expensive firewood and rice are, now the gang is under your control, and there are ten people in a sub-altar, and nine of them are leaders, and there is only one gang, and one person has to feed nine people, and you eat him and drink him, and now the other way around, which one is crazy about work? Besides, what is the most important thing in the mixed rivers and lakes? It's silver! Why do we beggars always have a low status? As long as we have money, we can become the first gang, as long as we have money, we will no longer be bullied, since ancient times, we have become kings and defeated criminals, and even the emperor was born as a thief before he started, why should we ......."

Before Qian Bolin finished speaking, he was killed by Xu Fengnian with a palm, Xu Fengnian whispered in Qian Bolin's ear with regret on his face: "Brother, if you don't say some things, there is still room for negotiation in the matter, and if you say it, you will die." ”

.........

On the way back, Lin Fan had been dull and silent, and when he arrived at the mansion, when he was about to separate, he couldn't help but ask Ling Yan to catch his head, is the matter really over? Only the innocent of the remnant? After killing only one mastermind, will the same thing really not happen again in the future?

However, he received a positive reply that child abduction and mutilation would still happen in the future, but after this incident, all the cunning and vicious criminals would be much more restrained.

Lin Fan was a little puzzled, in that case, why didn't he uproot the beggar gang? Ling Yan caught his head and told him, not to mention that the disciples of the beggar gang are all over the world, it is not easy to exterminate them, just moving a beggar gang will cause the martial arts people to hate the same enemy, and then the world will be divided again, and the world will be completely chaotic.

Chivalry is forbidden by martial arts, and the court has always hated the people of the rivers and lakes, and has to find a way to coexist with them.

This topic is too heavy, Lin Fan didn't continue to talk about it, this kind of headache should be left to the upper-level bigwigs to consider. At night, Lin Fan went to Jinfeng Tower alone, but still didn't see Miss Tao'er, and heard the maid say that she went out and didn't return.

Lin Fan bought some snacks along the road, went out of the city to the outer house of the peach girl, still did not see the peach girl, left the food to the child, returned to the Hangzhou inn, and unconsciously came out for a while, and now it is time to go back to the teacher.

It's just that I don't know when I will have the opportunity to come again, I haven't had time to thank Miss Tao'er in person, Lin Fan faintly feels some regret in his heart, whether it is a regret that he didn't have a chance to say thank you, or a regret that he didn't have a chance to see Tao'er again, he himself can't tell.

The next day, two members of the Giant Whale Gang were guarding the door, and suddenly saw a few people coming over, and they were about to break inside without saying a word, but the two hurriedly stopped: "How many people have a post?" ”

Cheng Pu put the Qi Mei stick on his shoulder, put his hands on the stick, and said with a smile: "There is no goodbye, but there is a big slap." As he spoke, he slapped his head and face, and slapped the two members guarding the door.

The two of them were furious and wanted to attack Cheng Pu, but they were knocked unconscious by him one by one, and then several people rushed into the courtyard, and when the members of the Giant Whale Gang saw this, they quickly surrounded them, Lin Fan felt that the enemy was tricky, but it was not the enemy of Zixuan and others, and several people fought all the way, and after a while, they arrived at the door of the main hall.

Zhuo Lengchan heard the movement outside and walked out with five of his subordinates, while Zhuo Yilong followed behind a few people.

"A few of them are too presumptuous." Zhuo Lengchan asked fiercely.

"Zhuo gang leader, there is a debtor who is wronged, I have a blood feud with Ling Anshi, you hand over the person today, and we will be cleared from now on." Lin Fan looked at Zhuo Yilong's face and took the initiative to take a step back.

"Joke, the members of the gang will hand it over casually, what prestige does my Giant Whale Gang have?" Zhuo Lengchan replied bluntly.

"Master once said, the more you think about it for a while, the more angry you become, the more you think about it when you take a step back, the more you lose, the purpose of our Xiaoyao Valley is to repay if there is revenge, you besiege and kill my little junior brother, if you don't get it back, what face do you let us go back to the master?" Jiang Yun spat on the ground and said angrily.

"In that case, there's nothing more to say, do it!" Zhuo Lengchan roared angrily, and then punched Zi Xuan, who was taking the lead.
