Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Qin Zhiyu could no longer control himself. His face was flushed red from holding back his emotions. He said with difficulty, “Last night, I talked to Foster Father about so business matters. Then, Foster Father…”
He said the last word with all his might.
Everyone in the room was shocked.
The truth was actually so unbearable!
Because Qin Zhiyu was too overco with emotions, he suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood and fainted.
No one spoke in the room for a long ti. It was extrely quiet.
Chu Qingzhi walked over and gently patted Qin Zhiyu’s back.
Qin Zhiyu woke up a mont later. His face was pale, and even his lips had lost their color. He looked especially pitiful.
Chu Qingzhi asked, “Do you know who killed Second Master Tan?”
Qin Zhiyu clenched his fists and broke out in cold sweat. “1-1 killed him.”
After saying that, he realized that there was no way to hide it anymore. He exploded and roared, “He deserves to die! He deserves to die!!”
Everyone felt that Second Master Tan deserved to die.
Qin Zhiyu’s eyes were red. He raised his head and looked at everyone. His eyes were filled with pain and hatred. “Tan Fang should have been cut into pieces. He should have died long ago…”
Second Master Tan, whose na was Tan Fang, was actually good friends with Qin Zhiyu’s father, but Tan Fang lusted after Qin Zhiyu’s mother. He secretly frad Qin Zhiyu’s father and occupied his mother. In the end, Qin Zhiyu’s mother couldn’t stand the humiliation and committed suicide.
Qin Zhiyu naturally beca an orphan. A few years later, he accidentally beca friends with Tan Maozhi and was fostered by the Tan family. He originally wanted to destroy the Tan family and let Tan Fang die, but last night, Tan Fang actually!
He could no longer hold back his hatred and killed him.
When they heard his words, an indescribable feeling surged in their hearts. Tan Fang really deserved to die!
Chu Xujin handed Qin Zhiyu a cup of tea. “Drink so to calm down.”
Qin Zhiyu looked up at Chu Xujin and gently pushed the teacup away. “I’m not drinking. I just want to vomit now.”
Chu Xujin put the teacup back. This person was too pitiful.
After a while, Chu Qingzhi saw that Qin Zhiyu had cald down a little and asked, “Do you know who killed Third Master Tan?”
Qin Zhiyu said calmly, “1 don’t know, but I’m sure it’s soone from this mansion. Last night, 1 killed Tan Fang in a panic when 1 saw a black shadow flash past.”
Chu Xujin asked, “How can you be sure that the murderer in question is still in the mansion?”
Qin Zhiyu said, “Intuition.”
Chu Qingzhi said, “By the way, who manages the garden?”
Qin Zhiyu said, “There are three gardeners in the mansion who specialize in managing flowers and plants. You can ask them.”
Chu Qingzhi said to the constable guarding the door, “Officer, please bring in the three gardeners in charge of the garden.”
“Okay.”
Only two of the three gardeners ca. They were both n in their forties. Their heads were lowered, and they looked a little afraid.
Chu Qingzhi asked bluntly, “Has anyone touched the fleece flowers in the garden recently?”
The gardener said, “Jiang Sing took it. He said that the fleece flowers were getting bigger and bigger, affecting the other flowers, so he cleared them away. How did you know?”
Chu Xujin asked, “Jiang Sing is the gardener who didn’t co, right?”
The gardener said, “Yes, he took three days’ leave yesterday. 1 don’t know where he went.”
“He left yesterday?” Chu Xujin frowned. Why at this juncture?
The gardener said, “Yes, we were puzzled as to why he would apply for leave when he had no relatives or friends. However, we didn’t ask.”
There was a high chance that the murderer was Jiang Sing. Chu Qingzhi said, “Officer, inform the head constable to arrest Jiang Sing!”
The constable replied, “Yes, Miss Chu.”
Chu Xujin continued to ask, “When did Jiang Sing co to the Tan mansion? What kind of person is he?”
The gardener said, “He ca five years ago. At that ti, Old Master Tan bought a few pots of precious peony and needed soone who knew about flowers to take care of them. He happened to be looking for a job and knew about peony, so Old Master Tan kept him.”
“For the past five years, he has been especially conscientious. Old Master Tan even handed the entire garden of the mansion to him to manage.”
“Jiang Sing doesn’t like to talk and is a little serious. I keep feeling that he’s enduring sothing. He either works or sleeps. His life is very simple.”
Chu Xujin asked, “Does he know martial arts?”
The gardener said, “You must be joking. Why would a gardener learn martial arts? He’s just an ordinary person who knows how to plant flowers.”
Chu Qingzhi asked, “Does he have family and friends?”
The gardener said with certainty, “No, I’ve never seen anyone visiting him. He’s a loner.”
Chu Qingzhi said, “Let’s find Jiang Sing first.”
Yuan Hongjun walked towards Chu Qingzhi and said softly, “Master, I didn’t find anything unusual about the Tan family mbers.”
Chu Qingzhi said, “Watch them first. When we find Jiang Sing, I think we can close this case.”
Yuan Hongjun said, “Master, do you really think we can close the case?”
Chu Qingzhi looked at Yuan Hongjun. “What do you an?”
Yuan Hongjun was puzzled. “Master, this case involves the forces on the northern border. Could it be their doing? Moreover, why didn’t they kill Old Master Tan since he deserved to die the most?”
Chu Qingzhi said, “We’ll know when we catch Jiang Sing.”
Yuan Hongjun continued, “Master, I think there’s sothing wrong with that
Red Crane too. I keep feeling that she’s involved.”
Chu Qingzhi smiled and said, “Your observation is correct, but don’t be anxious.
The case is gradually becoming clearer. The person behind the scenes will definitely co out.”
Yuan Hongjun looked at Chu Qingzhi with bright eyes. “Master, have you already set up a trap?”
Chu Qingzhi kept him in suspense. “You’ll know when the ti cos.”
Tang Jinghong walked out of the room. He had just learned about the case. “Qingzhi, are you ready to carry out your plan?”
Chu Qingzhi said, “Yes, it’s about ti.”
Tang Jinghong said, “The head constable has already brought people to search the entire county. There should be news soon..”
