Li Nanke's sudden behavior shocked everyone present. The courtyard that was noisy just now suddenly became extremely quiet and strange.
"Li Nanke, what are you doing!"
Jing Benhai's expression changed and he shouted coldly.
As for Chu Yunxin, the prefect's wife who was pointed at by the firegun, her face was full of fear and confusion, her delicate body was trembling, and I felt pity for her.
"Li...Master Li...what are you doing?"
the woman asked in horror.
Li Nanke stared intently at Chu Yunxin, his eyes as deep as a dark pool, and his gasping breaths gave people a premonition that his suppressed anger would burst out at any time along with the firecrackers.
The finger on the trigger was extremely tight, affecting the emotions of others.
"Li Nanke, put down your weapon!"
Jing Benhai shouted again.
On the side, Lan Minsheng gently persuaded, "Li Nanke, if we have anything to do, we can discuss it slowly. You calm down first, be careful of the gun going off and injuring the prefect's wife."
Lan Minsheng deliberately emphasized the word "Mrs. Magistrate".
Once he pulls the trigger, Li Nanke will face more than just being caught.
"Nanke..."
Leng Xinnan looked worriedly at the suddenly violent man.
She knew that Li Nanke was not usually such an impulsive person, and there must be a reason for his behavior at this time.
It's just that Chu Yunxin's status is unusual after all.
"What did you say to Shengtian just now?" Li Nanke looked directly at the woman and asked.
"What?"
Chu Yunxin looked confused.
Li Nanke repeated it again, "What did you just say to Shengtian!?"
Jing Benhai and Lan Minsheng looked at Chu Yunxin with a bit of suspicion. Apparently they realized some problems from Li Nanke's tone.
Chu Yunxin was puzzled, "I didn't say anything. Just now Master Yu kept... holding my neck. I was frightened and could only beg for mercy..."
At this time, a carriage slowly stopped at the door of Yunxiang Temple.
It is the carriage of the prefect Yuan Changxu.
With the help of a servant, Yuan Changxu, who looked a little tired, got out of the carriage.
Looking at the night patrol officers surrounding him, he frowned and stepped towards the crowd.
When he saw Li Nanke pointing a blunderbuss at his wife, Yuan Changxu's face suddenly darkened, "What's going on?"
"master."
Chu Yunxin had tears in her eyes.
The woman wanted to pounce, but she didn't dare to act rashly when faced with the firecracker pointed at her.
"Li Nanke!"
Jing Benhai scolded, "I order you to put down your weapon!"
Lan Minsheng said seriously: "Li Nanke, no matter what you want to know, calm down first and let's discuss it slowly. What do you think you are like now?"
Li Nanke was silent for a moment and stared at the prefect Yuan Changxu, "Master Yuan, you are a court official and you eat royal food. If your wife has anything to hide, you can't escape the involvement!"
After saying that, his fingers slowly relaxed, and his heavy breathing gradually returned to calmness.
Everyone saw this and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
As for Chu Yunxin, who had been in shock just now, her lips painted with bright red rouge traced a sarcastic arc without leaving any trace.
This woman is acting after all.
But the next second, Li Nanke moved the muzzle of the gun to the woman's ear and pulled the trigger.
boom!
The blazing waves of fire flew past the woman's ears and hit the old locust tree in the courtyard.
After a few strands of hair spun in the air, they slowly fell to the ground.
This scene really shocked everyone.
Everyone was dumbfounded.
Chu Yunxin subconsciously touched her cheek, which was a little sore from the heat wave. The buzzing of mosquitoes in her eardrums made her brain go blank for a moment.
Is this guy crazy?!
When he came back to his senses, he saw Li Nanke's back turning and leaving.
Li Nanke!!
The woman clenched her jade hands tightly, her nails digging into the flesh of her palms.
Jing Benhai looked extremely ugly and planned to order other members of the Night Patrol Division to capture Li Nanke, but Lan Minsheng pulled down his sleeves and finally gave up with a dark face.
"Young people are very energetic."
Yuan Changxu had a strange expression and sighed inexplicably. He didn't know whether it was sarcasm or appreciation.
…………
After the prefect and Chu Yunxin left, other members of the Night Patrol Department also left one after another.
Jing Benhai and Lan Minsheng, who understood what had happened, asked Yu Shengtian's body to be carried to the Night Patrol Department. They originally wanted to discuss it in detail with Li Nanke. However, the other party refused to pay attention, so the two had no choice but to leave first.
The blood stains in the Zen room have been cleaned by the nuns.
The smell of blood still remains.
Li Nanke quietly stared at the yellowed portrait hanging on the wall, silently.
In the mural is the previous abbot of Yunxiang Temple.
With a few simple strokes of pen and ink, he vividly painted a quiet and holy master.
Those seemingly plain eyes seem to be able to see into the prosperity and chaos of the world, exuding an aura of detachment.
I remember that the last time Li Nanke saw this portrait for the first time, he fell into an illusion.
I saw the weird nun with only one eye.
Looking at it now, there is nothing attached to it.
"Nan Ke!"
Leng Xinnan quickly ran into the house and whispered, "I asked Tieniu and the others to visit Yu Shengtian's family. They are all safe at home. However, there are indeed signs of surveillance outside."
Seeing that Li Nanke was silent, she asked curiously in a low voice: "Could it be that Chu Yunxin..."
"It's such a coincidence that she came here."
Li Nanke said lightly, "I have been thinking about why Yu Shengtian asked to see his family in the first place. In fact, he didn't want to see him, he just wanted us to protect his family.
Later, after your persuasion, he gave up resistance, but suddenly chose to commit suicide.
The only possibility for a person like him to commit suicide is if his family is threatened.
Under the circumstances at that time, none of us could threaten him. Only one person, a person whom we ignored, could threaten him."
"Chu Yunxin!"
Leng Xinnan's red lips slowly spit out these three words.
You think she is a hostage, but she is the real mastermind behind all this.
This woman hides too deeply.
It seems that even Yu Shengtian only realized at that moment that the woman he kidnapped was actually a demon.
But Leng Xinnan was still puzzled, "Chu Yunxin's two daughters both died because of Hongyu. What is the situation? If she is from the underworld, then...it's a bit unreasonable."
"I don't know either, but now I am sure that Chu Yunxin is closely related to the underworld."
Li Nanke said, "This woman took the initiative to confess that she took "Red Rain" from the beginning. I thought she wanted to take revenge on Li Donghai and her husband because of the death of her daughter.
But now it seems that she has been leading us by the nose since then.
It seems illegal for the prefect's wife to take Red Rain to treat her illness, but we don't really know what to do with her. With such a mentality, it is difficult for us to have deep doubts about her identity.
She completely drew our attention to Li Donghai, made Li Donghai surrender, and then led a fake transaction. She cleaned out the moles planted around Shi Yan, and then attacked Niu Daru..."
Li Nanke breathed a sigh of relief, "She actually wanted to use Yu Shengtian again, but unfortunately I revealed Yu Shengtian's disguise first, so she had no choice but to get rid of this chess piece."
"This is not the Chu Yunxin I knew before. I really don't understand why she became like this."
After listening to her lover's analysis, Leng Xinnan felt a chill in her heart.
Although the girl who liked her brother was a bit petty, she was not so vicious.
Now he seems to be a different person.
"What a pity. I originally wanted to let Yu Shengtian join us, and I was confident that he would abandon the dark side and turn to the bright side, but in the end I was ruined by that woman!"
Li Nanke was still angry and slapped the wall hard.
Only then did Leng Xinnan understand why Li Nanke had behaved so irrationally before.
Yu Shengtian is extremely capable.
If you have such a person as your companion, you can help with many things.
"Now what?"
Leng Xinnan gently held the man's hand to calm him down and asked softly.
Although it is speculated that Chu Yunxin is related to the underworld.
But what about the evidence?
Chu Yunxin is the wife of the prefect, and with such a status, she cannot be thrown into prison for interrogation casually.
Li Nanke said nothing.
Because there was another doubt lingering in his mind.
That is the lost red rain.
Apparently he took three bottles of Red Rain and kicked them into his clothes in the morning, but they magically disappeared.
If he had these three bottles of red rain, he could definitely save Yu Shengtian.
