"Pff!"
A scorching hot wave swept through.
The black flas, in just an instant, dispersed all the poison fog.
Within a radius of one kiloter, all vegetation turned to charcoal.
The terrifying power made everyone who was hundreds of ters away gasp in shock.
Even those far away were hurt by the scorching residual heat.
If one had been standing in the poison fog, they would have certainly turned to charcoal by now.
"What happened?"
"This is even more terrifying than a missile."
"Did it trigger an underground gas explosion?"
The people lying on the ground looked at the dreadful scene in front of them with faces full of horror.
That black fla that had appeared out of nowhere was a hundred tis more terrifying than the previous poisons.
Even though everything had cald down, nobody dared to take a step closer.
While everyone was still puzzled, Lin Fan’s voice ca from within.
"Zhi Rou, co in for a mont!"
"Okay, I’m coming."
Hearing that Lin Fan was still alive, Xu Zhi Rou finally let down her guard.
"Wait here for , do not enter without my command."
After instructing the others to wait, she quickly ran into the charred area.
She soon found Lin Fan behind what was left of a tree root turned to charcoal.
"Are you alright?"
Seeing Lin Fan curled up there, hugging his knees.
Xu Zhi Rou hurriedly wanted to approach him, but Lin Fan waved her off, preventing her.
"Don’t co over... It’s a bit awkward, this guy’s poison fog is too clingy. I wasn’t careful, and it ruined my clothes. Can you get a change of clothes? Otherwise, I can’t et people like this."
"Then... Are you hurt?"
Xu Zhi Rou asked with so concern.
"No, not really. Just with this little guy, he couldn’t harm . At most, he destroyed a few of my clothes. I must say, this little devil really went too far; he can’t expect to et people bare-assed."
Lin Fan looked helpless.
He had been overconfident just now in order to breakthrough ntally.
Now he had paid the price with an article of clothing.
"Alright, you wait for ."
Confirming Lin Fan was safe, Xu Zhi Rou hurriedly ran out.
She soon brought back a set of clothes.
Lin Fan put on the clothes awkwardly, then walked forward.
By now, the green mountain to the south had already turned to charcoal.
It still retained the shape of its desperate final scream.
Lin Fan naturally disdained to whip a dead body.
Instead, he took a few more steps and cleared away a pile of charred debris.
He took out sothing about the size of a palm from inside.
"What is this?"
Xu Zhi Rou walked up close, curiously looking at Lin Fan.
"This is the body of the chief culprit, the tiger-headed toad."
Hefting the already roasted tiger-headed toad, Lin Fan hadn’t expected its original body to be so small.
I had to admit, the Onmyoji’s Evil Skill was truly impressive.
With this treasure, Li Qiqi only needed one more of the genuine five poisons.
It was unquestionably the best gift from this battle.
"Still, we didn’t catch any live ones, otherwise we could have uncovered many conspiracies,"
Looking at the corpse in the Aoyama forest, Zhao Jiaqi felt so regret.
The stuff in this guy’s head was what mattered most.
Regrettably, it had turned into charcoal now.
It was completely aningless.
"Dead n also have their uses, at the very least I now know so things,"
Lin Fan smiled and looked at Xu Zhi Rou, "Last night, there was news that Xu Shiyong and Hino Hiroshi had a secret eting, and the most seriously injured this ti was Su Delong. Yesterday, when Xu Shiyong wanted to fight , it was Su Delong who stopped him and subdued him. Therefore, I have reason to believe that Su Delong’s injury was instigated by Xu Shiyong."
"Are you saying Xu Shiyong is that giant rat?"
Hearing this, Xu Zhi Rou clenched her fist, "That damned thing, I’ll have him arrested right now and charge him with treason, and see if he can escape that."
"But do you have evidence?"
Lin Fan smiled and shook his head, "Moreover, the sneak attack by Aoyama Rinan this ti only reinforced my belief that Xu Shiyong is definitely not the giant rat, at most he’s just bait secretly set up by the giant rat, just to make us believe that this guy is the giant rat, and thus divert all our attention."
"He’s not the giant rat? Then why would there be an Onmyoji attacking him? Besides, you just said Xu Shiyong and Hino Hiroshi t, doesn’t that corroborate his identity?"
Xu Zhi Rou looked at Lin Fan, puzzled.
"I only said it was at Xu Shiyong’s instigation, not that he is the rat. Think about it, if there’s a traitor hidden among us, would they openly attack their enemies this way? If I were a traitor, I would definitely disguise myself as a good person, the less attention the better, to facilitate committing cris secretly. If it were only this kind of tactic, he wouldn’t qualify as the giant rat."
Lin Fan’s explanation made Xu Zhi Rou nod repeatedly.
Having switched perspectives, she now had a new direction.
"Then who could the giant rat be?"
"I don’t know, but at least he’s around us, just hidden very deep. But I can be sure that this person has a very close relationship with Xu Shiyong, which is why he would choose this brainless guy as his scapegoat."
Lin Fan shook his head, "By the way, how is Su Delong doing? Is his life in danger?"
"He should be fine for now; he’s been taken to the hospital. I just checked him thoroughly; his legs are ruined, but the extent will only be known after the examinations. As for the others, their injuries are minor, mostly superficial wounds; with so rest, they’ll be fine,"
Xu Zhi Rou clenched her fist, "Then how should we handle this matter?"
"First, let’s visit the hospital to see Su Delong. I believe this clueless scapegoat will probably go too. Then we can start looking into the people around him to see who seems more suspicious."
There was no longer any point in staying here.
Lin Fan drove Xu Zhi Rou straight to the hospital.
Sitting in the passenger seat, Lin Fan squinted his eyes.
His deep eyes continuously observed the retreating scenery outside the car window.
"Are you still thinking about Xu Shiyong?"
Seeing Lin Fan’s serious expression, Xu Zhi Rou asked curiously.
The usually jocular man had suddenly beco silent and taciturn.
This really took so getting used to.
"No, I’m thinking about Lu Feifei’s matters. Even with Wang Hu’s retaliation, she remains silent. What exactly is she hiding?"
Lin Fan frowned.
The recent events, combined with the information just provided by Xu Zhi Rou.
He realized he seed to be enveloped in a conspiracy.
And that this conspiracy was strangely orchestrated by his own woman.
"Anyway, whatever she’s hiding, it won’t harm you. Maybe all this is just to love you better,"
Xu Zhi Rou sneaked a glance at Lin Fan.
The relationship between the two had not progressed since Evil Island.
When would this end?
