Hu Cai stammered, and at the same time he began to look around, as if he was ready to run away at any time.
Seeing how guilty he was, Chen Che instantly felt reassured.
He had already thought about it before he came.
If this Hu Cai reacts normally, he can just talk about it and deal with it.
Anyway, this Saqian Street is the territory of Langya Hall, so it is not strange for him, the hall leader, to appear here.
But if this Hu Cai reacts abnormally...
snort!
Then don't blame him for being rude!
"Mr. Hu, it's like this. I discovered that my adoptive father has been drugging me every day recently... as if he wants to kill me.
You are his confidant, and most of the profitable business in the gang is negotiated by you..."
Before Chen Che finished speaking, Hu Cai's expression changed drastically!
Then he subconsciously wanted to bang on the door and ask for help.
However, as soon as he raised his hand, Chen Che appeared in front of him.
By the time he reacted, Chen Che had grabbed his throat and lifted him up slightly.
…
"Mr. Hu, you really know."
Chen Che's tone was cold.
"Well……"
Hu Cai kept struggling and could only make a slight whimpering sound.
"Let me tell you, several houses around here, including yours, have been slightly drugged by me, and they are all sleeping soundly now, so don't think that if you make some noise, someone will come to save you.
.
Okay, that's it.
If you want to talk to me properly, just blink your eyes twice.
If you don't want to...you can just die!"
After Chen Che said this, Hu Cai blinked his eyes crazily.
Seeing this, Chen Che relaxed his hands slightly.
"Don't...don't kill me..."
Hu Cai's face turned pale, his eyes were full of fear, his legs were shaking constantly, and he was even a little unsteady when standing.
As a smart man, he knew very well that the reason why Chen Che said those words to him was most likely because he already regarded him as a dead person.
"I...I advise you to run away quickly. If you run away now, you still have a chance of survival."
Hu Cai's voice trembled.
"You mean I'll kill you and then run away?"
After Chen Che said that, he was ready to strangle his neck.
Feeling the strong force of the hand on his neck, Hu Cai couldn't help but burst into tears.
"Hall Master Chen... I beg you to let me go. I know I said it, and you will definitely kill me immediately... I really don't want to die..."
"What's the use of killing you? Will killing you, Feng Dachuan, let me go?"
To tell you the truth, I was ready to run away.
Now I just want to understand the reason.
Don't worry, as long as you tell me, I will never kill you.
The most it can do is knock you unconscious.
By the time you wake up, I will probably no longer be in Stonefire City.
If you still don’t believe it, then I swear.”
Then Chen Che made a vow.
Seeing that he had hope of living, Hu Cai's psychological defense completely collapsed, and he immediately replied tremblingly: "Yes... it's the Yang family. It was the Yang family who contacted the gang leader and asked him to kill you.
You are now attracting attention from all parties, and they don’t want to make things worse, so they specifically asked the gang leader to let you die naturally.”
"Yang family..."
Chen Che recalled it carefully in his mind, and after a while, he figured out the key.
The reason why he came to this world was because the original owner of the body failed the county examination.
The original owner of the body failed the county examination, probably because someone changed the test paper.
When he first came to this world, he didn't know who was changing the test papers, and he didn't care about it.
But when I went to see Zhang Ruoyuan later, Zhang Ruoyuan seemed to mention that a certain unintelligent son of the Yang family had become a scholar.
Now it seems that the person who changed his test paper is most likely a member of the Yang family.
He was just a poor scholar before, and he didn't make any fuss after failing the exam. He looked like he thought he was unlucky. The Yang family could let him go.
But now he is very popular, and there is a vague possibility of joining the Jishi Alliance.
No wonder the Yang family wanted to kill him.
"The Yang family... I don't want to pursue this matter anymore, but you insist on causing trouble for me!"
Chen Che felt quite unhappy.
He really didn't care who had tampered with the original owner's test paper.
It's a pity that the tree wants to be quiet but the wind doesn't stop.
…
"Did you help Feng Dachuan take this job?"
Chen Che's tone was cold.
Hu Cai shook his head repeatedly.
"No! It's the gang leader who was directly contacted by the Yang family!
However, the gang leader refused at first. After all, you are his adopted son and the leader of Langya Hall, and he values you very much.
But then the Yang family added one more thing...
Then...then the gang leader asked me to take over the job."
"Let you pick it up?"
Chen Che was a little confused.
Hu Cai nodded and said with a tearful voice: "If word of the assassination of his adopted son were spread, his reputation would be ruined... So he and I discussed that I would take over the job.
In this way, even if the matter is exposed in the future, it will still be my poison.
Moreover, he will not fall into trouble with the Yang family because of this matter."
"What a cunning person!"
Chen Che cursed secretly in his heart, and at the same time, he also felt the pressure increase greatly.
Compared to Xu Feng and others, Feng Dachuan is not only stronger, but also more thoughtful.
Facing this kind of enemy, if you are not careful, your fate may be irreversible.
"Hall Master Chen, I have said everything that needs to be said. I am also a victim. Please let me go..."
Hu Cai prayed.
Chen Che glanced at him upon hearing this, then reached out and touched his neck, knocking him unconscious.
He definitely wanted to kill this person, but he couldn't kill him directly.
As an insider of this matter, if Hu Cai was suddenly beaten to death, there was no guarantee that Feng Dachuan would not suspect him.
But in this world, just a little suspicion is enough to make someone take action.
After putting Hu Cai into the sack that had been prepared in advance, Chen Che carried the sack into the night.
…
After a while.
In a dark alley in the outer city, a figure was lurking outside the fence of a house.
Just as he was about to sneak in and steal the Sun Stone from this family, a hand suddenly placed on his shoulder.
Seeing the hand that suddenly appeared on his shoulder, this man was scared to death!
Before he could look back, a hoarse voice came from behind him.
"Are you a pawn?
I was staring at you last night."
"I...I...not."
"No, aren't you planning to steal the Sun Stone?
This family has an old relationship with me, please let them live.
I will give you another person, and you can leave it to Xie Sui."
As soon as he finished speaking, a sack appeared beside him.
Judging from the bulging appearance, it was obvious that there was someone inside.
"this……"
Just as the man was about to speak, a sound of wind came and the man behind him had disappeared.
Looking at the sack, the man's expression changed several times, but he finally picked up the sack and took it to a dark place.
…
Chen Che watched this scene silently from a distance.
After waiting for about a quarter of an hour, the man walked out of the dark place with a nervous expression.
Seeing no one around, he ran away quickly.
Chen Che followed him closely. After following him for a while, he shook his right hand and a stone flew out.
boom!
A dull voice sounded, and the man fell down.
Chen Che held the Lieyang Stone tightly and returned to the dark place to check. After confirming that Hu Cai was dead, he returned home.
