Chapter 994: Perceiving the Anomaly

Soon, however, an assassination attempt, which surprised all of them, took place in a way that they had not expected.

Dayue is not for other reasons, but because of the current situation.

It is precisely because of their laxity and self-belief that Zheng Chengdan's subordinates will definitely not be so bold. And judging from the evidence they currently control, although Zheng Chengdan's power in this Jiangnan area is indeed far greater than they imagined.

But if it is serious, if he causes trouble in front of their noses and kills Shi Quan, the most important evidence, I am afraid that it will be too risky, and he will be afraid of this, and he will not dare to act rashly.

But it was also because of Zhuang Mingyue's overly calm thinking that they relaxed a little because of this. It was not because of this that they were able to pay too much attention to him in this shortest period of time and when Shi Quan was protected.

Only then did things happen in a direction they had never anticipated.

And because of such an incident, this is what will make it happen when it happens, even if they find out in hindsight, they don't have enough time to deal with it, which makes things beyond their expectations, and it happens.

It's not because of anything else, it's just that in this situation, for them.

The most important thing at the moment is naturally to take out the real evidence that can take Zheng Chengdan in one fell swoop, so that he can be convicted.

So when they weren't resting in the inn, they were negligent when the assassination happened.

Seeing that the inside of the house had been assassinated by the assassins, the blood flowing from the neck stained the whole person red, and Shi Quan, who had become a corpse.

Whether it was Zhuang Mingyue or Long Yuanxiu on the side, the faces of the two of them could be said to be extremely difficult to see.

The two of them didn't expect it anyway, under the condition that they had already arranged for Shi Quan, and the other identity was incognito.

It was still possible for the other party to find him, and he was still able to find this person in just a few days, and even took advantage of the fact that they were not in the inn to directly kill Shi Quan.

For them, the most important witness and evidence now is only one person, and the document signed with Zheng Chengdan in his hand, but now it is not only that this most important witness is dead, but even the document that is also extremely important to them is gone.

In this case, for them, it is naturally equivalent to completely losing all evidence. After all, when the other party is dead, it is impossible for them to be tough and force those charges that are real to Zheng Chengdan's head.

After all, in today's situation, if they really do this, it is equivalent to using their power to set those trumped-up charges against Zheng Chengdan.

It is inevitable that under the other party's other means, this matter will be spread out, so that everyone will be cold to the court.

"It's really a trick, and you dare to secretly make such a dead hand to Shi Quan in front of you and me!"

Zhuang Mingyue was looking at the corpse covered in blood, and the look on her face was really hard to see.

It's not just because Zheng Chengdan dared to attack Shi Quan directly in front of their noses, but also because of the current situation.

They can be sure that this group of bandits has contact with Zheng Chengdan not only this time, but I am afraid that there are other more important things, but because the other bandits have now been imprisoned by him, and they cannot have access to them.

So there are still many things, and they can't find out so easily, and now the only such witness and tangible evidence that can testify has also been completely destroyed by Zheng Chengdan.

It can be said that they not only died without proof, but even fell short.

Knowing the truth of the matter, he still had to temporarily slow down the matter because there were no witnesses and evidence, so that he could continue to investigate the matter.

Otherwise, if the other party is too suspicious of them, I am afraid that the next thing will naturally be more difficult to find out, let alone bring such sinners to justice.

also knows that in this situation, things have become more troublesome and confusing, not only Zhuang Mingyue, who has been investigating here, is extremely troublesome and annoyed.

For Rong Long Yuanxiu here, he was naturally just as annoyed.

After all, in the final analysis, since their family has made great progress in the matter, as long as they can continue to investigate, they will definitely be able to find out the most substantial evidence soon.

can even directly convict Zheng Chengdan, and then take him down in one fell swoop. But now that they have lost this most important witness and evidentiary document, even if they have other evidence in their hands, it is not convincing enough in this situation.

and had to abandon the idea of being able to convict the person at once.

Otherwise, if they can't completely convict the other party, if they act rashly, but let the other party have the possibility of turning over, I'm afraid that except for that only one chance, the next thing will not be just difficult, so to speak.

But in the current situation where there is no proof of death and there is no other way for now, no matter how annoyed they are, they have to let go of this anger.

Instead, find another way to re-investigate the matter from somewhere else, otherwise the longer they drag on this matter, the more detrimental it will be to them.

And the longer the time, Zheng Chengdan, who has already been prepared here, will definitely eliminate all the clues again and again, and completely wipe out all the clues in the case of those evidence that is unfavorable to him.

If they want to take it seriously, when that time comes, then they really have nothing to do, let alone obey this person.

The secret guards who were sent by Long Yuanxiu on the side to secretly protect Shi Quan's safety also didn't expect that they would be in the meeting, such a simple plan to divert the tiger from the mountain.

As a result, the most important witness today was directly given by the other party in the shortest possible time, and such an important person as Shi Quan was directly solved.

I saw him kneeling on the ground, his eyes full of confession, "This matter is the fault of his subordinates, please punish the master!" ”

Although it is not entirely his fault in this matter, it is ultimately the case.

It was indeed because he fell for the other party's plan to divert the tiger from the mountain that he left so easily, so he was exploited by the other party and directly killed Shi Quan in the inn, resulting in this irreparable situation.

But now that the matter has come to this, for Long Yuanxiu and Zhuang Mingyue, they are not the ones who do not know right and wrong, but whenever something happens, they will blame all the blame on the people under them.

Therefore, knowing that the more important culpability of this matter, although it was indeed on this secret guard, they did not punish him too severely.

It's just that he should be guilty and make meritorious contributions, and find out as soon as possible the killer who sneaked into the inn last night and killed Shi Quan with a knife as soon as possible.

After getting such a secret guard who could wear the opportunity to make meritorious contributions, he naturally did not hesitate at all, and agreed to it.

"Yes! Subordinates receive orders! ”

After answering such a sentence in a deep voice, the dark guard did not delay too much, left the house, and turned to investigate the matter, the real culprit and the process of what happened.

With the comfort leaving, in the face of Shi Quan's corpse, which was already dead and had no proof, Zhuang Mingyue and Long Yuanxiu on this side were no matter how unwilling they were.

can only helplessly send someone to bury the body first, so that people can be buried in the ground.

Although they had also used this matter to test Zheng Chengdan, wanting to get some favorable news from him, even if it was just a casual gaze or unintentional words, it was enough.

However, under the circumstances of a scheming person like him, when he learned about such a thing, he did investigate it in a short period of time.

Shi Quan escaped from the prison because of the remnants of the bandits, so he simply ignored his death, and didn't have any thoughts about it.

Under such circumstances, it is naturally impossible for the two of them to be tough and let him continue to investigate the death of this bandit remnant.

The matter was also settled.

And after this time, Zhuang Mingyue and Long Yuanxiu revealed Zheng Chengdan's purpose to Long Zhengning during a trip.

After listening to Zhuang Mingyue's words, although Long Zhengning was really shocked by this matter, his face was very indifferent.

It wasn't because of anything else, but because he knew in his heart that since he had already decided on his own and didn't plan to meddle in this matter too much, he shouldn't show any spots of the opposite sex, want to help, or have any look of suggestion or any idea about it.

It's just because for Long Zhengning, who is in this state now, since he has decided now, he will not participate too much, as long as he is now bent on returning to the situation of the twenty-first century.
