"Zhuzi, what happened today is rotten to the core."
"I understand, Master Geng."
Su Yi, who had changed into his Chinese tunic suit, leaned back on the chair looking tired and let out a long breath.
The process of killing Ma San seemed simple, but in fact, Su Yi did the best he could. He was able to plan such an assassination on the spot and hid himself very well. Su Yi felt that he could not kill him unless Holmes and Conan came.
Find out the murderer.
In fact, this plan was only formed in Su Yi's mind when the competition began. His initial plan was to pretend to miss during the competition and "accidentally kill" Ma San.
But there were too many disadvantages to doing so, and Su Yi didn't think Gong Baosen would be so blind that he couldn't tell the difference between manslaughter and intentional killing.
So he gave up killing Ma San on the spot and changed his thinking to what would happen if he injured Ma San?
Su Yi was good at calculations and deducing people's hearts. As soon as his thinking spread, he immediately realized that this was the best choice!
It is no exaggeration to say that Gong Baosen's reaction was completely calculated by Su Yi. He guessed that Gong Baosen would most likely not accompany Ma San to see the doctor. He also guessed that Lao Jiang or Gong Er, or even the two
The scene where people go together to accompany Ma San.
The compensation of one hundred oceans was also specially proposed by Su Yi in order to perfect his plan. With these one hundred oceans, this impromptu attempt to seek wealth and murder would be more convincing.
As for the separation of Lao Jiang and Ma San, it was not part of Su Yi's plan. Su Yi was lurking in the clinic and actually planned to adapt to the situation. He was thinking of ways to get rid of Lao Jiang, but he didn't expect Lao Jiang to leave on his own.
It can only be said that it was God's will. Luck was on Su Yi's side, saving him a lot of trouble and sending Ma San on his way smoothly.
The only person who knew about the whole matter was Zhao Dezhu, but Zhao Dezhu was one of the people Su Yi trusted most.
Will Gong Baosen suspect Su Yi after learning that his apprentice was killed?
Maybe, but on the surface, Su Yi is not suspicious.
Because Su Yi had no motive and no reason to do this.
The only reason was that Ma San scolded him for being "shameless".
But even so, Su Yi had already taken revenge. He dislocated Ma San's leg, which was regarded as teaching Ma San a lesson.
Su Yi could obviously kill Ma San directly, but he didn't.
Su Yi could obviously abolish Ma San, but he didn't.
So what reason did Su Yi have to let Ma San go and pay Ma San a compensation, and then secretly kill Ma San?
It makes no sense, there is absolutely no need for him to do anything extra.
No one I tell anyone about this will feel justified.
No matter how perfect the crime was, it could not change the fact that Ma San only had conflicts with Su Yi in Jinmen.
Unless Gong Baosen and the others believed that this was an accident involving wealth and murder, if they had any doubt that it was not an accident, then they would still be unable to get around Su Yi, and they would still suspect Su Yi, even if they didn't.
any evidence.
Sometimes people's feelings and intuitions do not require logic and are completely incomprehensible.
Not to mention, even if they really didn't doubt Su Yi, at least Ma San would not have died without Su Yi. Based on this, a rift between the Gong family father and daughter and Su Yi was hard to reconcile.
When Su Yi returned to his residence, Ma San's death completely unfolded.
The patrol room of the French Concession, the Gong family father and daughter, and Zheng Shanao were all present.
Gong Baosen looked at his disciple's body and felt as if he had aged ten years suddenly. He was hunched over and unable to say a word for a long time.
Although the relationship between Gong Er and Ma San is not very good, they are brothers and sisters after all, and she is not hard-hearted, so how can she not be sad?
She hugged her father's arm and cried silently.
Lao Jiang turned pale and murmured in a trembling voice: "It's all my fault...it's all my fault..."
Zheng Shanao looked solemn as he discussed the details of the murder case with Liao Xianyong, the chief constable of the French Concession.
"The murderer is definitely an expert, ruthless and knows how to kill people." Liao Xianyong pointed to the wound on Ma San's neck, "Look here, once this big blood vessel is broken, the person immediately doesn't know anything and can react in any way.
If it doesn’t come out, all the blood on the body will spurt out in the shortest possible time.”
"And here." He then pointed to the wound in the heart, "Kill with one knife, so accurate! Do you know how difficult it is to miss the ribs and stab the heart? If I hadn't killed many people, I wouldn't have been able to do this.
a little."
"According to the traces at the scene, after the murderer walked in, he first cut Mr. Ma's large blood vessels with a knife, causing him to completely lose resistance. In order to prevent blood from spraying everywhere and Mr. Ma from making a sound, he used a pillow in advance
He blocked the wound on Mr. Ma's neck and his mouth. Then he stabbed Mr. Ma into the heart, killing him with one stab."
"Then he took all the money from Mr. Ma and fled."
"It can be roughly inferred from these details that the murderer is an extremely vicious gangster. Whether he is killing people or robbing money, he appears to be very sophisticated. This man must be a thief who has done many murders, and he must be very short of money. Look at him.
He didn't even miss Mr. Ma's ring. But why did he rob the hospital? Why did he target Mr. Ma? This is a bit strange..."
Speaking of this, Liao Xianyong said doubtfully: "The murderer's goal is very clear. He came after Mr. Ma, so Mr. Ma must have been targeted by him in advance, but why? Does Mr. Ma have a lot of money on him?"
Lao Jiang on the side suddenly raised his head when he heard this, stared at Liao Xianyong and said tremblingly: "One hundred oceans! A bag containing one hundred oceans is placed at San'er's bedside!"
Liao Xianyong clapped his hands and said speechlessly: "We are all old men in the world, don't you understand the principle of not revealing your wealth? Well, this is the reason!"
"It was me who harmed San'er! It was me who harmed San'er!" Old Jiang's face was pitiful and grief-stricken, "I shouldn't have asked him to put down the money, I should have insisted and let them take the money and get out!
Why didn’t I persist? Why?”
"Jiang Fuxing!" Gong Baosen shouted, making Lao Jiang tremble all over.
"Master, it's all my fault! It was me who killed San'er!" Lao Jiang cried out with tears gushing out.
Gong Baosen's eyes were red, he held Lao Jiang's hand with both hands, and said slowly word by word: "I don't blame you, San'er... I won't blame you either! Who can guarantee that he will not make any mistakes when he is in the world?
This is fate, you have to accept it!"
Lao Jiang just cried, still unable to forgive himself.
Gong Baosen looked at Liao Xianyong and said to him, "Mr. Liao, in your opinion, is there anything fishy about this matter?"
Liao Xianyong looked at Ma San's body, then looked at the scene, and finally shook his head slowly and said: "Based on my experience, this should be an impromptu murder. Of course, we can't rule out the enemy's revenge and then pretend
It’s an illusion to rob wealth. This possibility is also possible, it depends on whether Mr. Ma has offended anyone in Jinmen.”
Liao Xianyong thought for a moment and then added: "If you really have an enemy, you should pay attention to two types of people. One is that the enemy is a Lianjiazi himself, and he is a ruthless person who has killed people and seen blood; the other is that he is rich and powerful,
Someone who can afford to hire the first type of person.”
"Geng Liangchen!" Gong Er suddenly said the name and looked at Liao Xianyong, "My senior brother was in Jinmen, and he only offended Geng Liangchen! His legs were discounted by Geng Liangchen!"
This name was like a magic spell, causing the expressions of Liao Xianyong and Zheng Shanao to suddenly freeze, and the atmosphere instantly became weird.
"Who are you talking about?" Liao Xianyong looked at Gong Er in surprise, "Are you talking about Geng Liangchen, the leader of Jinmen Foot Industry?"
"Besides him, who else is Geng Liangchen?" Gong Er said, "My senior brother competed with him in martial arts and lost to him. However, my senior brother had spoken rudely to him before. He has a violent personality and may not be able to commit murder to vent his anger.
Things are coming!”
"Geng Liangchen has a violent temper?" Liao Xianyong laughed dumbly, "Miss Gong, with all due respect, Geng Liangchen doesn't seem like the kind of person who kills people to vent his anger just for a dirty word. He... let me put it this way, if he really
If he wants to kill your senior brother, he will definitely beat him to death openly and will never do it secretly. With his status and power in Jinmen, there is no need for him to do so."
"How do you know he won't do this?" Gong Er asked.
"Everyone in Jinmen knows that he can't." Liao Xianyong said calmly, "Speaking of which, I and Geng Liangchen are enemies rather than friends, but even if we are enemies, I have to say that this man is an upright man and will definitely not do it.
He is so narrow-minded that he kills people just because of a disagreement."
At this point, Liao Xianyong paused and said, "But the fact that he broke your senior brother's leg...what did your senior brother do to him?"
Gong Er stopped talking.
Gong Baosen slowly shook his head and said: "It shouldn't be him. If he wanted to kill Ma San, he would have the opportunity in Dengying Tower. If he wanted to vent his anger, he could have deposed Ma San at that time, but he did not do so. Instead, his subordinates
Show mercy."
Liao Xianyong's eyes rolled, guessing the whole story.
However, Gong Baosen stopped talking at this point, and just said to Liao Xianyong: "Mr. Liao, I leave the matter of my apprentice to you. Please be sure to find the perpetrator and give an explanation to the person who died in vain!"
"Don't worry, Master Gong, this is my responsibility, Liao will definitely go all out!" Liao Xianyong said seriously.
"My apprentice's body..."
"Tomorrow, go to the Frank Patrol Room to pick up the body tomorrow. After the police officer has inspected the body, you can take him away." Liao Xianyong said, "I have brought all the doctors and buddies from the clinic to the Patrol Room. I will keep an eye on this person personally.
Case, interrogate these people personally, and as soon as there is any news or clues, I will send someone to inform you immediately."
"Thank you."
Gong Baosen cupped his hands again and walked out in despair. Gong Er and Lao Jiang hurriedly followed.
Zheng Shanao said to Liao Xianyong: "My uncle lives in my house, and Mr. Liao can also call me directly."
"Okay, definitely, definitely."
Outside the door, Gong Er asked: "Dad, do you really think that senior brother's death was an accident?"
Gong Baosen slowly shook his head: "Whether it was an accident or not, it doesn't matter anymore. It's best for the patrol room to find out whatever they can. If they can't find out... As a master, I will give him an explanation."
At this moment, Zheng Shanao came out.
Gong Baosen glanced at him and said to Gong Er: "You and Fuxing should go to the patrol room and keep a close watch. Don't let them mess with San'er's body. I'll talk to you, Senior Brother Zheng, together."
"Okay, dad..."
Watching Gong Baosen and Zheng Shanao leave, Gong Er felt his nose sore.
Most of the suffering in this world comes so unexpectedly, leaving people defenseless and defenseless.
"Uncle Jiang, do you think it's Geng Liangchen?" Gong Er asked.
"It's not him." Lao Jiang shook his head, but immediately said bitterly: "But without him, San'er wouldn't have died!"
Gong Er stared blankly at the busy traffic in the distance and said: "I have never liked my senior brother very much. I think he is utilitarian and tacky. But since I was a child, my senior brother has never treated me badly. Every New Year's Day, he gives me the filial piety he gave to his father.
His gifts have never been left behind. Whatever I asked him to do, he did it properly every time."
"Senior brother probably knows that I don't like him, but he has always treated me the same way. I used to think he was fake, but now that I think about it, maybe he just doesn't care about me, a little girl..."
"Uncle Jiang, do you think that only when a person dies can we remember his kindness?" Gong Er smiled, tears falling, "Speaking of which, in all my life, I have never done anything for my senior brother...
"
Behind her, Lao Jiang had already burst into tears.
In the driving car, Gong Baosen and Zheng Shanao were silent to each other, and they were speechless all the way.
They said they were talking on the road, but in fact, they had nothing to say.
Along the way, both of them had their own thoughts.
Until the car stopped at the gate of the Zheng family's mansion.
"Uncle, we're here."
Gong Baosen came back to his senses and looked at Zheng Shanao.
"Shan Ao, in what year did you leave Guandong?" Zheng Shan Ao suddenly asked.
Zheng Shanao was stunned and lost his mind for a moment.
"The thirty-first year of Guangxu's reign," Zheng Shan said proudly, "if calculated using the Western calendar, it would be 1905."
"Do you still remember why you left Kanto that year?" Gong Baosen asked again.
Zheng Shanao was silent for a moment and replied: "That year, our Bagua Sect suffered a great disaster due to being implicated in the assassination of the five foreign ministers. All the disciples fled, leaving only you, Uncle Gong, to support you in Guandong.
The situation has just reached the situation where the Xingyi Bagua Sect is flourishing today."
"That year, there was a lot of snow, and many major events happened..." Gong Baosen said with emotion.
"The Rakshasa and Zhepeng people fought in Lushun, the new army in the six towns of Beiyang was trained, the Tongmenghui was established, the Beijing-Zhangjiakou Railway was built, Wu Yue assassinated five ministers and died in the revolution before he matured... These things all happened in the 30th year of Guangxu
It happened in one year.”
"That year, some people in our Bagua sect also joined Wu Yue's Northern Assassination Group to assassinate the five foreign ministers. Unfortunately, they failed. They died and escaped. Zhang Yuting captured Bo Wugui, a Zhe Penglang man, and let him go.
Indiscriminate killing of innocent people on the streets of Fengtian was used to lure the Tongmenghui loyalists into being deceived."
"This Bo Wugui used to be a member of the Tongmenghui and knew many secrets, but at that time he had gone crazy and became a delusional man who only knew killing. If this man does not die, our Bagua Sect will have no place in Kanto. The patriots of the Tongmenghui
, there will never be peace, and the folks who die under his sword every day will never rest in peace!"
