174. Extraordinary wills

This is actually a rather insidious and vicious murder method, because in this way, when Lin Ruo dies of poison, the murderer does not have to appear next to the victim, so it is less likely to arouse suspicion.

It can be seen from this that the person who came to Tian Chunda this time is not an ordinary person.

The day after Lin Ruo's tragic death, a visitor from Tian Chunda came to the Red Leaf Hotel.

When Tian Chunda took the business card with the words "Gu Gong" written on it from the waitress, he couldn't help but squint his eyes.

Gu Gong is the director of Gu Gong Law Firm, the legal counsel of Hong Li's family, and the person who keeps Hong Li's will.

Thinking of this, Tian Chunda couldn't help but feel a burst of heartbeat, and he immediately ordered the waitress to bring the guests in.

Lawyer Gu Gong soon arrived, he was a gentleman with a slightly dark complexion and a serious expression, and he was sixty years old.

He observed Tian Chunda with professional acumen on the one hand, and on the other hand, he simply greeted him and apologized for his sudden visit.

Tian Chunda habitually smiled and said, "No, don't take it to heart...... Actually, I was surprised when that happened yesterday, and I believe you should be even more surprised! ”

"Yes, this incident is so unexpected that I doubt its authenticity, but, in fact, I have come to visit you today for this purpose."

"Really?"

"The local police station told me just now, I heard that Lin Ruo entrusted you to conduct some kind of investigation?"

Tian Chunda nodded.

"That's it! Did he entrust you by letter? ”

"Well, yes, it's a pity that I haven't seen Mr. Lin Ruo yet, he was killed, so I don't know the details."

"Well, yes!"

Tian Chunda stared at lawyer Gu Gong and asked slowly:

"Mr. Gu Gong, are you the legal counsel of the Hong Li family?"

"That's right."

"So, you have a responsibility to protect the reputation of the Hong Li family?"

"Of course."

"Actually, Mr. Gu Gong."

Tian Chunda suddenly lowered his voice and said: "I am also thinking about the reputation of the Hong Li family, so I didn't tell the outside world about it. ”

As Tian Chunda spoke, he took out the letter sent by Lin Ruo, and paid close attention to the expression on Lawyer Gu Gong's face when he read the letter.

I saw that lawyer Gu Gong showed a rather surprised look, not only did cold sweat break out on his forehead, but even the hand holding the letter trembled.

"Mr. Gu Gong, do you have any opinion on the contents of this letter?"

Lawyer Gu Gong was asked by Tian Chunda, and his shoulders immediately trembled, as if he was very frightened.

"I think this letter is really incredible, even if something big is about to happen to the Hong Li family, how could Mr. Lin Ruo know in advance? And why is he so convinced? Mr. Gu Gong, do you have any thoughts on this matter? ”

"This ......"

Lawyer Gu Gong's expression was cloudy, and it seemed that he knew something, but he didn't know whether to say it or not.

Tian Chunda hurriedly leaned forward and said:

"Mr. Gu Gong, don't you really know about Mr. Lin Ruo's commission of my investigation?"

"I don't know, but now that I think about it, Lin Ruo's words and deeds a few days ago were indeed a little abnormal, and he seemed to be very nervous and scared......"

"Afraid of what?"

"This ...... After Lin Ruo was killed, it was the first time I thought about it......"

Lawyer Gu Gong looked like he wanted to speak and stopped.

"Do you know what he's afraid of?"

Finally, lawyer Gu Gong made up his mind and said to Tian Chunda: "It should be about Mr. Hong Li's will!" ”

"Oh, a will? What's going on? ”

"The will has been locked in the safe of my office, and after Lin Ruo was killed yesterday, I suddenly felt uneasy, so I checked the safe, but found that someone seemed to have peeked at the will."

When Tian Chunda heard this, he couldn't help but be a little surprised, and hurriedly asked, "Someone peeked at the will?" ”

Lawyer Gu Gong nodded gloomily, and then said: "Since Zuo Qing is coming back soon, this will will actually be made public sooner or later, what I'm worried about is that when this will is made public, will there be any commotion......

"Is there anything unusual about this will?"

"Very unusual!"

Lawyer Gu Gong said categorically: "This will is simply unusual, as if it is intended to provoke mutual hatred among the bereaved families. I tried to dissuade Mr. Hong Li from doing this, but he insisted on it......"

"Can you tell me some of the contents of the will?"

"No, no!"

Lawyer Gu Gong waved his hand and said, "I must not do this. Because Mr. Hong Li said that the contents of the will should never be made public before Zuo Qing returned home, he ......"

"I understand, and since that's the case, I won't ask any more. However, you said that someone seemed to have peeked at the will, and I think only the surviving family of the Hong Li family should be interested in the contents of the will, so it may not be difficult to find out who secretly opened the safe. ”

"No, I don't think they'll have any chance of opening the safe. However, it could also be that someone bribed Lin Ruo, because only he had the means to open the safe. Presumably, Lin Ruo later probably found out that the contents of the will would bring disaster to Hong Li's family, so he was so worried and afraid. ”

"Why does this will bring disaster to the Hongli family?"

"Do you remember a strange thing that happened on the lake yesterday......"

Lawyer Gu Gong glanced at Tian Chunda meaningfully.

Hearing this, Tian Chunda raised his head.

"Ahh The boat thing ......"

"Yes, I heard you also investigated that small boat......"

"Well, I've checked, and the bottom of the boat has indeed been tampered with, and the hole has been plugged with lead powder. According to this situation, Zhu Shi's name probably also appeared in the will? ”

"You're right, she does have a very important place in the will. Frankly speaking, as long as she doesn't die, she has the right to decide who is the successor of the Hong Li family. ”

Tian Chunda couldn't help but think of the peerless beauty in his mind.

What kind of fate did Hong Li arrange for that holy and unparalleled beauty? At this moment, Tian Chunda seemed to see the small boat that was submerged in the lake under the sunset, and behind Zhu Shi on the boat, there was a huge black hand, slowly reaching towards her......

*******

Two weeks after Tian Chun arrived at the Red Leaf Valley, on November 1, 201x, the Red Leaf Valley was filled with tension early in the morning.

This is because Zuo Qing, the grandson of Hong Li's parents, who returned from abroad, returned home late last night accompanied by his mother Hong Xiangsong.

It is undeniable that the prosperity of Momiji Valley is closely related to the fate of Hongli.

Hong Li's family is prosperous, and the Red Leaf Valley will also be stained.

In the past, Hongye Valley was a cold, surrounded by mountains, and a small lakeside village with little agricultural products, and the reason why it developed from a population of more than 100,000 to the current urban form is entirely due to the development of Hongli Group here.
