Chapter 154: Suspicion
Xiong Qiang took a sip of wine, glanced at Tang Bao'er, and said, "Miss Tang, you are the future helmsman of the Tang Sect, don't you think it's too naΓ―ve to say that?"
"Xiong Qiang, you ......"
"The murderer who killed Tang Yu is not my master!" Xiong Qiang ignored Tang Ping'er's willow eyebrows, and didn't want to dwell on this matter anymore, but just said what he wanted to say to Tang Men in his heart.
"The evidence is conclusive, Xiong Qiang, you don't have to be cunning, not to mention that if it wasn't your master Xiaoyaozi, then why did he hide it?" Tang Bao'er said.
"Is the evidence conclusive? You just rely on the words left by the boss of Jinyu Restaurant when he died, but if you believe me, I have more conclusive evidence to prove that Tang Yu was not killed by my master. β
"Hmph!" Tang Bao'er glanced at Xiong Qiang coldly, and snorted coldly, obviously Xiong Qiang's testimony, she would never believe it.
But despite this, Xiong Qiang still said: "When Tang Yu died, my master and I never went to Jinyu Restaurant at all, just like when the Yunyan Daoist of Wudang Mountain was killed by me in Evil Wolf Ridge, I also didn't go to Evil Wolf Ridge at all. β
Seeing Tang Pai'er's disdain, Xiong Qiang also knew that it was impossible for Tang Pai'er to believe his testimony, but he didn't care, this was already in his expectation, and continued: "Although I don't know who the murderer of Tang Yu is, I have the object of suspicion. β
"Who? I'd be interested to hear it. It was Tang Tong who spoke, and he, who had been silent all along, suddenly became very interested in Xiong Qiang's words.
Tang Tong's sudden answer made Xiong Qiang look at him more, but soon he continued to look at his wine bowl, and said lightly: "If you give me half a year, I will find sufficient evidence to prove the real murderer of Tang Yu." β
"Half a year?Xiong Qiang, do you think my Tang Sect is so easy to fool?I think you're trying to delay time!" Tang Tong said with a smile.
Seeing through by Tang Tong at a glance, Xiong Qiang also smiled slightly, in such a short time, he may not be able to really find the murderer, after all, so far, the only clue is that the person who killed Tang Yu's chief should be someone who is familiar with Tang Yu. The words with Tang Bao'er were indeed just a procrastination.
"Hehe, as I said, I just remembered a suspicious person, so it will take me half a year to verify. β
"Since you have the object of suspicion, why don't you say it, let my Tang Sect also know it, maybe my Tang Sect can also check it. Tang Tong asked again.
"I think you also know that Manager Tang Yu should be a familiar person, who was caught off guard and was killed by a sneak attack. And for those who are familiar with Tang Yu's manager, my master Xiaoyaozi is indeed one, but that night, I was with my master, and it was impossible for him to kill Tang Yu again.
So I can only say that although the evidence left by Boss Qian points to my master Xiaoyaozi, I can be sure that that Xiaoyaozi is fake, in short, my master was framed. β
"I'm afraid that no one else can prove that Xiaoyaozi was not at the scene of the murder that night, right?" Tang Tong said.
"Yes, he and Xiaoyaozi are the same thing, how can you believe his words? Miss, Manager Tang, I don't think I need to talk nonsense with him, take him down. The Tang Sect disciple said angrily.
Tang Bao'er shook her hand to stop the noise of the disciples, in the Wumeng Valley, with her understanding of Xiong Qiang, although this person is hateful, but he is definitely not the kind of person who is a great traitor, although his words cannot be fully believed, but it is not completely credible.
Xiong Qiang said slowly: "I know you won't believe my words, and I can't be sure who the real murderer is for the time being, but just based on the line left by Boss Qian, it is too arbitrary to say that the murderer is my master, right? After all, the people who really know the truth, Tang Yu and Boss Qian, are dead, what if the line left by Boss Qian was forged by someone after his death?"
"Do you think that my Tang Sect is so easy to fool? What you guessed, we have already compared it through Boss Qian's previous handwriting, and my Tang Sect can be sure that the line of blood is indeed written by Boss Qian. Tang Tong said.
"Even so, the Jinyu Restaurant is the intelligence collection center of your Tang Sect in Jining, and it can be called the most secret place of your Tang Sect in Jining, right? If it weren't for the people of the Tang Sect, I'm afraid that even if my master Xiaoyaozi was the tenth killer in the rivers and lakes, I am afraid it would be difficult to find out that Tang Yu was in the secret room of the Jinyu Restaurant that night without alarming any Tang Sect's eyes and ears, right?"
Tang Tong and Tang Bao'er were both stunned, except for the internal high-level of the Tang Gate, the place where Tang Yu died, it is indeed difficult for outsiders to know.
"Hmph, do you want to tell me that Xiaoyaozi doesn't know about my secret contact point of the Tang Sect? But he is the tenth killer in the rivers and lakes, the first killer of the dark river back then, it may not be particularly difficult to find this place, right?"
"If you are so sure that my master is so omnipotent, then I have nothing else to say. It's just that, compared to my master, I think those high-level people in your Tang Sect will definitely know better than my master, right?"
Tang Bao'er, who was listening quietly on the side, also frowned slightly, she was also a dexterous person, and she had already heard some clues from the conversation between Xiong Qiang and Tang Tong.
Xin Dao: "Xiong Qiang's words sound reasonable, this secret room, except for a few managers of my Tang Sect and disciples with extremely high status in the Tang Sect, it is indeed difficult for ordinary people to access this place. If Xiaoyaozi is really put aside, then the murderer of my eldest brother may indeed be someone from within my Tang Sect. Moreover, after the eldest brother's accident, grandma has been reluctant to give the order for the Tang Sect disciples to chase and kill Xiaoyaozi, according to this inference, could it be that grandma has already guessed that Xiaoyaozi is not the real murderer? She has been standing still, has she already guessed that the person who killed my eldest brother is from my Tang Sect? If this is the case, then who is the most likely person in the Tang Sect to kill my eldest brother?"
Her mind was also spinning rapidly, and she secretly calculated several of the Tang Sect's chief managers in her heart. But when she thought of Tang Tong, she remembered a lot about Tang Tong's past.
Tang Tong, Tang Gong, Tang Yu, Tang Mo'er...... These people are all direct descendants of the Tang Sect, and they are all members of the Jinzi generation, and even Tang Tong's martial arts should be regarded as the strongest among these Jinzi generations, except for Tang Qi.
However, he didn't get any of the positions of the head of the Tang Sect's major houses, he and Tang Yu used to be the most powerful competitors of the head of the soul snatching room, but in the end, grandma handed over the chair to Tang Yu, and didn't even tell him why.
Soon after, the head of the hidden weapon room died, and almost the entire Tang Sect thought that he Tang Tong would naturally become the head of the hidden weapon room, but that Tang Gong was like a dark horse to kill, and in the fighting arena, he directly defeated him and became the head of the hidden weapon room.
Although Tang Tong is not dissatisfied on the surface, but if he is frustrated one after another, he will inevitably have resentment in his heart, maybe he is not Tang Qi's opponent, but Tang Yu is definitely not his opponent in terms of martial arts and resourcefulness, if he has personal anger and wants to win the position of chief manager in Tang Gate, then the best way is to let one of the chief managers die, so that among the golden characters of Tang Gate, he will no longer have an opponent, even if his grandmother doesn't like him, in order to block Tang Gate's leisurely mouth, she must also accept the reality, and the position of the head is handed over to himγ Among all the managers, Tang Yu, who has mediocre qualifications and the weakest martial arts, naturally became his top choice.
At the scene of Tang Yu's death, although there were a few hidden weapons cast by Tang Yu, a discerning person knew at a glance that these hidden weapons were cast under Tang Yu's unpreparedness, which shows that Tang Yu and the person who killed him should know each other. Obviously, Tang Tong meets this condition.
If the murderer is really Tang Tong, then why did Tang Tong blame Xiaoyaozi?
Thinking of this, Tang Bao'er suddenly frowned, and her face was a little ugly. Because, she thought of another thing, that is, she had heard her grandmother say that Tang Yu's mission that time was to find Xiaoyaozi on the order of her grandmother. Although she didn't know why her grandmother asked Tang Yu to find Xiaoyaozi, at least it showed that Tangmen had some kind of relationship with Xiaoyaozi.
Tang Yu found Xiaoyaozi, maybe there was some kind of unhappiness between him and Xiaoyaozi, Tang Tong just took this opportunity to kill Tang Yu, so as to blame Xiaoyaozi, which is a very logical thing.
Thinking of this, Tang Bao'er's heart was surging, and she suddenly felt that this Tang Tong was the real murderer of Tang Yu......
Just as Tang Bao'er's thoughts flew here, he only heard Tang Tong say angrily: "Speaking of which, you still want to push the murderer of Tang Yu on my disciple of the Tang Sect, what are your intentions?"
Xiong Qiang sneered and said, "Manager Tang, who can tell the truth of right and wrong in the world? You so arbitrarily think that the murderer is not from your Tang Sect, do you really know everyone in your Tang Sect?"
"You suspect that I am from the Tang Sect, at least you need some evidence!" Tang Tong said coldly.
"So I need time!"
Because Tang Bao'er suspected Tang Tong, she also asked tentatively: "So, do you have some clues before you think that someone from my Tang Sect did it?"
Xiong Qiang was noncommittal, he did have some clues, but these clues were too general, and he didn't have definite evidence.
Seeing Xiong Qiang's almost default appearance, Tang Bao'er was also secretly nervous, she had guessed that Tang Tong was a murderer, so would Xiong Qiang's answer be the same as hers?
At this time, Tang Tong blurted out and said, "Who is it?"
Looking at the expressions on the faces of the two, Xiong Qiang smiled slightly and said, "Give me some time, and I will let the truth come out." β
Tang Bao'er thought secretly in her heart, and she didn't know what she was thinking, but she saw her face change for a moment, and then she raised her voice a little and said: "Okay, Xiong Qiang, since you have this certainty, I will give you time to find out the real murderer, let my eldest brother Jiuquan look at it, and let your master take off the black cauldron." β
"When it comes to my master's innocence, I should do my best, but Miss Tang, there is one more thing I ask you to accept. β
"You say. β
"During this half year, I hope that the Tang Sect will not interfere in anything related to me. β
"As long as you don't provoke my Tang Sect, my Tang Sect will naturally not interfere in your affairs. Tang Bao'er said in a cold voice.
"That's good!"
"Miss, do you just let go of that surnamed Xiong?" said the Tang Sect disciple with some dissatisfaction.
"Within half a year, if Xiong Qiang hadn't taken the initiative to provoke him, I, the people of the Tang Sect, would not have fought with Xiong Qiang, did you understand?" Tang Biao'er said loudly.
"But Tang Yu's enmity ......"
"Don't you understand, and whoever commits a crime will be punished according to the rules of the door. β
"Yes!"
"Let's go!" After speaking, Tang Bao'er left calmly.
When Tang Tong turned around, he still glanced at Xiong Qiang suspiciously, and he didn't know what he was thinking, and then he followed Tang Bao'er down the restaurant
