Chapter 2319: Chapter 2319: Can’t be Proven

“I am planning to get involved in this case, and I just took it over.” He said.

“That Lu Tianfeng is utterly useless. So many people have died, yet he hasn’t even uncovered the slightest clue. When we questioned the guards around him, every single one of them had no idea!”

Thinking about today’s handover with Lu Tianfeng, his anger surged!

“Is that so?”

Lin Caisang remained indifferent to her father’s words.

It was sothing she had expected long ago; nothing surprising about it.

“Dad, think about it. It was supposed to be him going to Haikuo Forest, but now it’s you instead. For him to act friendly toward you would indeed be strange!

The fact that he hasn’t outright turned against you proves that he’s really capable of holding back. If it were anyone else, they’d probably be jumping with rage by now, pointing at your nose and cursing you.”

“He’d like to, wouldn’t he?”

Lin Baizhong sneered coldly, curling his lips.

He looked at Lu Tianfeng, whose expression was growing even grimr—best if he could just anger him to death right now.

Unfortunately, it seems good people don’t live long, and the wicked linger for thousands of years!

“Or perhaps…”

“Or perhaps what?” Lin Caisang asked.

“Sangsang, what do you think—could it be possible?” Lin Baizhong leaned closer to his daughter, speaking in a hushed tone.

“Do you think the murderer could actually be soone sent by Lu Tianfeng? Perhaps he wants his own people to enter Haikuo Forest and aims to eliminate those esteed, skilled alchemists first?”

He spoke.

“Why would you think that?” Lin Caisang asked again.

However, there was indeed so sense to this possibility; she and Zimo had speculated that there’s sothing in Haikuo Forest that Lu Tianfeng desperately wants.

So this ti, Lu Tianfeng would likely send a large number of people into Haikuo Forest in search of it. He might even risk danger and enter himself to personally look for whatever it is he desires.

“After taking over this case, I discovered that those murdered alchemists were all quite skilled. Judging by their abilities, they probably would’ve made it onto the list to enter Haikuo Forest.”

Lin Baizhong stated.

“Additionally, they all previously visited Lu Tianfeng’s residence. On the surface, they claid to be treating Lu Tianfeng’s illness, but secretly, perhaps they were attempting to bribe him.”

Little did they realize, their intentions to spend so money to secure better positions would ultimately cost them their lives.

If they had known, they surely would’ve stayed far away from Lu Tianfeng.

“Perhaps. But all of this is just speculation and can’t serve as evidence.” Lin Caisang shrugged and said.

Even if Lu Tianfeng is the one behind it, he would never admit it. Their suspicions are rely deductions based on his cruelty and craftiness.

Whether or not he is involved still requires them to uncover the murderer themselves.

“Dad, what do you think of my scarf? Isn’t it nice?”

She removed the scarf from around her neck and placed it before her father, asking.

Hearing this, Lin Baizhong simply rolled his eyes at her affectionately.

“You better put it back on quickly.”

If their assumptions are correct, that murderer must already have his eyes on his darling daughter.

There might not even be a need for her to stroll down the street—right here in this room, they could witness the perpetrator in action.

But if it cos to that, it would likely prove that Lu Tianfeng isn’t behind it after all. If it were him, at such an obvious point where anyone would suspect Sangsang as the next target, he certainly wouldn’t send anyone to kill her.
