This thing is not uncommon. As a profession like Lao Han, he is naturally no stranger to these things.
Old Han frowned, quickly stepped forward, took out a pair of specially made handcuffs, and fastened them on the maid named Xu's ankles and wrists.
As a result, the whole posture looks very awkward, and it is impossible to escape unless you put on wings.
Lao Han didn't care about avoiding suspicion and started searching the maid.
After a while, several pieces of evidence were found.
Each of these items contains highly toxic substances. They are not serious items at first glance and should never appear in the home of the ruler.
Old Han checked these things one by one, sent them to the governor, and explained in a low voice the toxicity and harm of these poisons.
It can be said that if any of the poisons here are ingested, unless there are rescue measures on site, there is only a little hope that the person can be saved.
There is a high probability that once ingested, you will definitely die.
At this moment, Huang Ma, who had been protecting the maid named Xu before, was completely dumbfounded. She completely collapsed. She never thought that she almost became the other party's accomplice and almost killed the leader's family.
"You... you are such a damned white-eyed wolf! You actually poisoned me? The Han family has shown such great kindness to us, and you actually repaid it with hatred. Are you still a human being? Doesn't your conscience hurt?"
Huang's mother turned pale, and her emotions of anger, self-blame, and despair caused her to collapse.
Before, she felt aggrieved and sad because of Jiang Yue's words. She even shed tears in front of the ruler, and even defended Xiao Xu.
Only now do I realize how stupid I behaved. I was betrayed and paid for someone else's money.
"Huang Ma, don't blame yourself. This person may not be from your hometown."
Huang Ma looked at Jiang Yue with a look of astonishment and red eyes, feeling both guilty and grateful.
If this young man hadn't forced himself to come forward, she would have caused a huge disaster this time. If that were the case, she would not be able to atone for her sins even if she died a hundred times.
"Old Han, do you still remember the replicator?"
Old Han Ning nodded: "Xiao Jiang, do you think she is a replicator?"
"right."
"You could tell when you walked in?"
"We have dealt with replicators so many times, and we know something about them. The aura of this person vaguely reminded me of déjà vu. To be honest, I was not sure at first, so I observed this
It took a long time before I was sure that there was definitely something wrong with this guy."
Jiang Yue didn't lie.
He was really a little skeptical at first.
Through various detailed observations, he found that this maid was indeed a bit strange.
Then he used his borrowed vision ability to pay attention to this person's every move.
Others in the restaurant cannot see the situation in the kitchen at all. However, with the borrowing skill activated, people can clearly observe the situation in the kitchen while sitting in the restaurant.
In this way, some of this person's small movements can be seen clearly.
Jiang Yue then called them together and asked them a few questions. Through his mind-exploring skills, he could see that this person's heart was extremely hollow and that he was completely sullen and cruel.
Old Han sighed: "I was negligent and almost missed a big event."
"Xiao Jiang, our old Han family owes you another favor."
Jiang Yue didn't care whether he owed a favor or not.
Even if he is a stranger, Jiang Yue will not sit idly by and ignore something like this.
The Lord in charge was surprisingly calm and did not lose his composure because of an unexpected incident. He was worthy of the upbringing of a high-ranking official in the city.
Jiang Yue admired this Qi-nurturing skill.
That Huang mother, on the other hand, was really in pain at the moment. She shouted several times that she didn't want to live anymore, that she was sorry for the Han family, and asked the ruler to punish her.
But the person in charge wrote lightly: "Mom Huang, don't blame yourself. Like Xiao Jiang said, it's not Xiao Xu who did the evil, it's the evil monster, and it has nothing to do with you."
"I was confused. I almost became a sinner. I felt wronged just now and wanted to argue with Xiao Jiang. I really deserve to die. I am an old fool."
"Mom Huang, don't blame yourself for now. This Xiao Xu, have you always been together? Is there anything unusual about her recently?"
Finding guilt and accountability now comes second. The key is to figure out how this replicator got in.
Based on previous experience, it is impossible for monsters like replicators to obtain information through questioning.
Therefore, you have to learn about the situation from other channels.
Huang Ma probably also knew that the matter was of great importance, so she tried to think about it.
"We are actually together every day. Except when we sleep in different rooms, we are almost together the rest of the time. I don't see anything wrong with her. It's pretty much the same as usual."
"Before coming here, where were you these days?"
"us……"
"Xiao Jiang, our Han family has other properties in Star City. Before coming here, they had been in another place, so there should be no problem." Old Han took the initiative to explain.
Jiang Yue sighed: "That's a little bit wrong. It can't be said that the replicators have infiltrated your Han family's industry and you know nothing about it, right? If this is the case, it should be more vigilant."
A big and dignified family, still in charge of Star City. How could it be so easily infiltrated by a monster??
If it can be penetrated so easily, if there is a first time, who can guarantee that there will not be a second time?
Huang Ma suddenly said: "By the way, I remembered. A few weeks ago, a few of us went shopping together. That time we walked on the street for a long time, visited the mall, and bought clothes. During that time,
We were separated briefly."
"Tell me more about it."
"At that time, we went shopping and tried on clothes in many stores. We tried our best and then parted ways. Later, we contacted each other through WeChat. I remember a detail at that time. Xiao Xu showed up last, and she was empty-handed.
She didn’t buy anything. Her clothes looked a little messy. We thought she was being bullied and asked her about it. She didn’t say anything at the time. She looked a little dull.”
"She usually loves shopping. She has a son who is in middle school, and she always buys a lot of things for her son. And her personality is usually very optimistic and cheerful. That's why we wonder if she is being bullied.
"
Jiang Yue and Lao Han looked at each other.
I think most of the situation happened during that time, right?
"Han Chu, it seems that the situation is more serious than we imagined. We are still guessing that the assassination chess pieces have been arranged for you. I think the defense of Villa No. 8 is just like this. Have you ever thought about it?
If someone really has this idea again and plans to take action in this Daozi Lane villa, how can you ensure the safety of the ruler?"
Of course Jiang Yue knew that there were several security personnel stationed in the dark places of Villa No. 8.
If an emergency were to occur, there would definitely be a big question mark as to whether such a few manpower would be enough.
It stands to reason that Daozi Lane Villa is absolutely safe.
But now that the situation is so chaotic, who can guarantee that there are no people with bad intentions lurking in the Daozi Lane Villa?
Especially after experiencing the dispute over Villa No. 9, Jiang Yue had great doubts about the safety of the Daozi Lane Villa.
"Fourth, please make arrangements for the things here first." The Lord in Charge greeted him, then stood up and said, "Mr. Bai, Xiao Jiang, come with me to the study to sit down."
"I want to go too." Han Jingjing said hurriedly.
"Follow your fourth uncle." The ruler has always been kind-hearted, and rarely speaks with a straight face even to his own daughter. This time, his tone seemed quite serious, with an air of no doubt.
Han Jingjing had rarely seen her father so stern, with her mouth raised. Although she felt aggrieved, she did not dare to say anything. She looked at Jiang Yue eagerly, probably hoping that Jiang Yue would beg for mercy.
"It's useless for you to look at Xiao Jiang." The ruler completely stopped her thoughts.
Jiang Yue waved his hand helplessly towards Han Jingjing, indicating that he would talk later.
The three of them came to the study room.
The Lord in charge sighed: "Xiao Jiang, thanks to you today, this is a life-saving grace."
Mr. Bai also nodded: "Even an old man like me has lost his sight. Young people are terrible. It's really hard not to accept old age."
"I'm serious, you probably wouldn't have thought that an old man of so many years would have problems."
Both the leader and Mr. Bai shook their heads helplessly. It was obvious that they were somewhat depressed, and at the same time they also had a clear sense of crisis.
I knew the situation was dire before, but I never expected that the crisis would come so quickly.
The enemy has everything figured out. They don't even know which direction the enemy is coming from or who the enemy is.
"Xiao Jiang, I met with Deputy General Manager Wan yesterday."
This did not surprise Jiang Yue. Before Jiang Yue left, someone came to invite the Lord in charge, who must have met with Deputy Manager Wan.
It's just that two high-ranking officials from different camps would definitely not be able to urinate even if they met.
Jiang Yue guessed that the meeting would not be pleasant and the atmosphere would not be harmonious.
"Deputy Manager Wan pounded the table yesterday."
Jiang Yue smiled and said nothing. What's wrong with slapping the table? It's time, slapping the table is useless. Jiang Yue didn't feel sorry for Deputy General Manager Wan's palm, he felt more sorry for the table.
"Xiao Jiang, Deputy General Manager Wan wanted me to put pressure on you, but I refused. He was very unhappy about this. But it doesn't matter. No matter what position an official reaches, he must not lose his basic principles and his respect for the law and principles.
.You have the right to inherit Villa No. 9, and as evidenced by Mr. Guo’s will, you are legally sound."
"I estimate that he will take tougher measures next, Xiao Jiang, you have to be mentally prepared."
"Tougher measures?" Jiang Yue said with a smile, "I'm curious about what kind of tough measures? You can't use artillery shells to bulldoze Villa No. 9, right?"
"That's not to say that unless you are crazy, you will definitely not do something like this that risks the world's disapproval. Besides, this is not something that a regional deputy general manager can decide on."
"I heard that Deputy General Manager Wan has a few strange people around him. Perhaps, this will be the next card he wants to play."
Jiang Yue smiled and said: "In the past two days, there have been people like this peeking around my Villa No. 9. As long as he plays his cards according to the rules, I can keep playing this card with him."
"I'm afraid it's easy to hide from an open gun, but hard to guard against a hidden arrow." Mr. Bai said with emotion.
"Mr. Bai is right, Xiao Jiang, Deputy General Manager Wan's attitude is already very firm. Whether it's overt or covert, you have to be mentally prepared."
"Thank you for the reminder. As a junior, I would venture to say that the leader also has to guard against some people jumping over the wall. The previous incident should not be an accident. I estimate that the other party may have targeted the leader.
If it doesn’t work, the chess pieces may be activated again in the next step. Don’t be careless.”
The leader and Mr. Bai looked at each other with complicated expressions.
"Xiao Jiang, I want to ask you something privately."
"You are serious."
"Xiao Jiang, I'm not being polite to you. As you said, the current situation is complicated, and no one can be sure what will happen in the next moment. In peacetime, it is basically impossible for me to encounter any unexpected events as the leader. But now... stare
For my position, there are many people who want to take my place. Some people see me as a thorn in their side and want to get rid of me immediately. So, what happened today really sounded the alarm for me."
"What if something unexpected happens to me one day, Xiao Jiang, I ask you to take care of Jingjing for me, okay? She is an innocent child, and she is still so young. I don't want her to get involved in these intrigues."
this……
Is it considered a tuogu?
No wonder Han Jingjing was not allowed in.
"In charge, the matter is not serious enough yet, right?" Jiang Yue said with a bitter smile.
"I mean just in case! Just in case one day comes, Xiao Jiang, can you promise me?"
"Isn't the powerful Han family more reliable than a young boy like me?" Jiang Yue still couldn't understand.
"Hey, Xiao Jiang, it seems that you still refuse to agree to me." The leader sighed, "I don't blame you. I, the leader, seem to outsiders to be in a high position, but I can't do anything for you.
To kidnap you morally for no reason is indeed a bit overwhelming."
"Being in charge is not about forcing others to do things. If one day Jingjing really needs my help, I won't hesitate without asking."
"Okay! Let me just say that I won't misjudge the person. Xiao Jiang, it's not that I'm pessimistic. In the current situation, there are some things that I have to do. Once I express my attitude and do these things, those invisible guns and secret arrows will attack me crazily.
I'll greet you. I must have this awareness."
"But, I have to do these things. As the leader of Star City, I have to carry the safety of Star City and the safety of the people of Star City on my shoulders no matter what. If someone has to carry the explosive pack to do this,
As the leader, I have the unshirkable responsibility and should be at the forefront."
The current situation in Star City may seem calm on the surface, but in fact it has been undercurrent for a long time, like a pot of slowly boiling water that is finally boiling.
This is like a powder keg. Once it is ignited, countless people will be blown to pieces.
"Xiao Jiang, if one day the truth comes to a point where nothing can be done, you must go and seek refuge with the military. I am an old friend of General Tong, the military general of the Central and South Region. As long as the military strength is still there, the world of this great country will be
, it can’t be turned over.”
Jiang Yue was secretly surprised. Hearing the leader's tone, it seemed that he really didn't have much confidence in what was going to happen next.
It's no wonder that the underground force has developed so rapidly. Its forces in Star City are intricately connected, and its influence may have far exceeded the expectations of the ruler.
Mr. Bai was responsible for investigating this matter and must have collected a lot of unfavorable information.
There is probably only one choice left to the ruler now.
Go ahead to dangers.
Knowing that you can't do something but doing it is a warrior!
