Chapter 585 Spring

Tai Xuelin!
Isn’t that the hall master on the duty roster who is responsible for protecting Ding Hui’s safety today!

Could it be? !
After hearing the news, Fa Hongbao, who had just recovered from his shock, hadn't figured out the situation yet when Fang Yu, who was beside him, whooshed past him and rushed out the door.

"Master Diao?!"

Qiu Xiaoping was stunned.

Before coming to the Senshe Gang, she did some research.

She may not know the names of the small fish and shrimp under the Forest Snake Gang, but the leader of the Forest Snake Gang still pays attention to them.

But she didn't understand why the death of a mere leader of the Senshe Gang could cause such a big reaction from Fang Yu.

According to the intelligence, this person had only been in the city for a few days and had just moved into the Forest Snake Gang.

In such a short time, how can there be such a deep friendship with the leader of the Forest Snake Gang? ?

Qiu Xiaoping seemed to be thinking about something. Looking at Fa Hongbao, who looked frightened and terrified as if he had thought of something, she quickly realized something and said with a smile.

"Master Fa, please be patient. Master Diao is much stronger than the hall master of your gang. With him around, your safety will be guaranteed. Besides..."

Qiu Xiaoping paused for a moment, then continued with a smile, "I have some friendship with Master Diao. His friends are my friends. If you trust me, Master Fa, I can keep you safe as long as you stay within my sight."

Upon hearing this, Fa Hongbao widened his eyes.

What do you mean?
This young lady...is she as powerful as Master Diao? ?
When he thought of this, Fa Hongbao even felt that he could not breathe. He was just thinking about dirty things towards this adult. Fortunately, he did not say anything, otherwise he would have been beaten into a pulp.

As expected, my heart belongs only to my lady!

Seeing Qiu Xiaoping speak with full confidence, Fa Hongbao couldn't help but become interested.

"I feel relieved with what Lord Qiu said. But since Hall Master Tai is dead, I must go check it out and investigate the situation. Please... Lord Qiu, accompany me?"

This is because I’m worried that I might get beaten up on the way.

Are you so cowardly and afraid of death?

Qiu Xiaoping felt a little weird, but didn't think much about it. What could a small gang achieve?

Following Fa Hongbao, they rushed to the scene of the incident. Qin'er, who was left behind, was at a loss, but she gritted her teeth and hurriedly followed. Only the scarred man who was unconscious in the hall was carried to the guest room by the servants of the Senshe Gang.

The three followed the servant who came to report and arrived at the scene of the incident.

After taking a look at the corpse on the ground, Qiu Xiaoping raised his head and looked around in confusion.

She saw Tai Xuelin's body, right at the gate of Tai Xuelin's house. She didn't know who killed him, and there was a dagger stuck in his chest, which should be a fatal wound.

But... Diao Deyi, who was the first to run out and was very concerned about this matter, is now nowhere to be seen and is not at the scene at all!

what's the situation??

Qiu Xiaoping was at a loss.

"Master Qiu, in your opinion, who did this?"

As soon as Fa Hongbao finished speaking...

"Gang leader!"

Mrs. Tai, who had become a widow, suddenly rushed over, pressed her body against Fa Hongbao, buried her face in Fa Hongbao's chest, and cried so hard that she could not make a sound, only occasional sobs could be heard.

"Boss, my husband, my husband... wuwuwuwu!"

As the crying sounded, the subordinates in charge of the surrounding areas all showed expressions of anger and grief.

These people are all Tai Xuelin’s confidants.

Tai Xuelin died suddenly, and they all wanted to cut the murderer into pieces to vent their hatred!
However, they are all rough men with basically no ability to investigate murder cases. They only know how to fight on a daily basis and have no idea how to find the murderer.

Therefore, many people turned their eyes to the unfamiliar Qiu Xiaoping and Qin'er.

According to the gang leader, these two unfamiliar guests might be able to find the real murderer of the hall master?

However, facing this expectation, Qiu Xiaoping felt a little embarrassed.

Although she is thoughtful and holds a high position of power in the rebel army, she is really not very good at solving cases.

Besides, there is no information at all, how can she find out the culprit?

These people's expectations of themselves are destined to be disappointed.

Fortunately, he was not here to make friends with the Senshe Gang, but to form an alliance with that Diao Gongzi.

But...Mr. Diao, where is he now?
Just when everyone was expecting Qiu Xiaoping to speak, Qiu Xiaoping fell silent.

But Qin'er, who was standing beside her, suddenly spoke.

"Since he is the hall master, I think he is quite powerful. And this place is in front of his house. If there was a fierce fight, it is impossible that no one would know about it... Find the people who were patrolling near the house at that time, or the servants in the house, maybe we can find some clues..."

Qin'er mustered up great courage before speaking.

Scarred Man made a mistake and implicated her as well. She must find a way to establish a good impression in front of Minister Qiu in order to survive in the rebel army...

But she regretted it right after she finished speaking. Because everyone around her was looking at her, she instantly felt a lot of pressure. She subconsciously lowered her head and stared at her shoes, speaking timidly in a voice as thin as a mosquito's.

"This, this is just my idea... Don't take it seriously..."

However, no one heard this sound except Qiu Xiaoping.

"Patrol...the person in charge of patrolling this area today should be Hou Mo. Where is that guy now?" Someone among the confidants spoke up.

"I don't know. I was only thinking about the Hall Master's affairs and didn't care about anything else."

Fa Hongbao was able to become a fake gang leader without being exposed, so he must have some real skills.

He immediately figured out a lot of key points and ordered: "Find! Find that guy for me! Also, Madam Tai, please hold back your grief for a while and gather all the servants in the mansion to gather here and wait for interrogation. I will send someone to follow you. If anyone escapes, you will take him down!"

With the gang leader giving orders, these close followers suppressed their grief, holding back anger in their hearts, and while loudly responding, they dispersed and began to act on their own.

At this time, Qiu Xiaoping had already glanced at Qin'er who was shivering with her head down.

Just one reminder can wake people up... Maybe this guy is not so useless?

At least when faced with problems, he is still quite calm, has quick thinking, and can immediately find the key points.

Ignoring Qin'er who was still nervous and worried, Qiu Xiaoping asked Fa Hongbao, "Master Fa, Master Diao, why aren't you here?"

Fa Hongbao was slightly stunned, then shook his head, pretending that he didn't know either.

But in fact, in the entire Senshe Gang, Lord Diao should not have any other place to go except that place.

Now that he is not at the scene of the crime, he must have gone back to his residence to make sure his wife is safe.

As long as Mrs. Diao is fine, Lord Diao should be able to join them here soon.

……

It’s similar to what Fa Hongbao thought.

Fang Yu is indeed with Ding Hui now.

Fang Yu suddenly broke into the room, leaving Ding Hui, who was doing the final treatment on Jin Liyu, a little stunned.

"What happened?"

Even though Ding Hui was not very strong, he could see that Fang Yu's chest was heaving due to nervousness before he broke in.

She stopped what she was doing, smiled and blinked her big eyes, looking at Fang Yu.

That direct gaze made Fang Yu, who was gradually regaining his senses, subconsciously dodge and look away.

"… Tai Xuelin is dead."

Ding Hui tilted her head slightly.

"Who?"

"Tai Xuelin, the leader of the Senshe Gang, is on duty with Fa Hongbao and is the one who is responsible for protecting your safety today."

Ding Hui had some impression.

Then, with her quick thinking, she immediately understood something and the smile on her face became even more intense.

Standing on tiptoe, with her hands behind her back, she approached Fang Yu step by step like a nimble elf.

When he was almost touching Fang Yu's chest, he raised his head to look at Fang Yu.

"So... you were just worried that something might happen to me?"

The sweet smell of her breath made Fang Yu subconsciously take a step back, causing Ding Hui to giggle, making a sound like a silver bell, and almost bending over with laughter.

Then, she heard Fang Yu standing still and clearly uttering two words.

"...worry." Silence.

There was a brief silence.

The direct gaze and straightforward words were so strong that even an old hand like Ding Hui suddenly felt overwhelmed.

She turned her back to avoid Fang Yu seeing her slightly flustered look at the moment, coughed lightly, and said, "Don't worry, I have also made some preparations. If someone wants to kill me, they will have to go through a few levels anyway."

If Fang Yu observed carefully, he could actually see that even with his back turned, Ding Hui's tone and state at this moment were slightly different from usual.

But at this moment, Fang Yu had only one thing in his mind.

"Ding Hui, I'm really worried that something might happen to you. Thunder City is full of intertwined forces. Although we have only been here for a short time, we have already offended many people. I often need to go out on business, so I want to... hire someone to protect you and keep you safe."

Ding Hui had sorted out his mood by now, and silently returned to normal. He turned to face Fang Yu and smiled.

"You want to hire someone to protect me? Who? Is he reliable?"

Fang Yu smiled.

"Reliable and trustworthy, and definitely the type of person you would be interested in."

Ding Hui frowned. There were not many people she was interested in.

Seeing Fang Yu's confident demeanor, she inexplicably felt a little unconvinced.

"You speak as if you know me very well!"

Fang Yu was stunned by Ding Hui's sudden temper.

"I, I didn't mean that..."

"Hehe! That's not what I meant. Look how nervous you are! Tell me, who do you want to hire to protect me? If it's an expert, the price will be high. Although we have some wealth now, we may not be able to afford it." Emotions came and went quickly. Ding Hui had already started laughing.

"No money...right?" Fang Yu was a little unsure, but he didn't keep it a secret and said directly, "It's Monk Quan Heng. He's also come to Thunder City. I've invited him to stay with the Senshe Gang temporarily. He will protect you and keep you safe."

Monk!
Ding Hui suddenly felt much better for some unknown reason.

When she realized who Master Quan Heng was, she immediately became excited.

"The believer and monk from Tianyuan Town!"

"The enemy!"

"Okay, okay! I'm worried about not having a suitable partner. I'll practice on him first. If everything goes well, I'll help you..."

Ding Hui began to mutter, which made Fang Yu feel ashamed.

“Stop, stop, stop! I asked him to protect you, don’t do anything fancy and scare him away… Besides, our experiments are quite risky, so it’s better not to involve Master Quan Heng.”

Fang Yu has a good physique and is not afraid of hardship. Monk Quan Heng is just an ordinary believer and may not be able to withstand Ding Hui's methods... If something goes wrong and he cannot protect Ding Hui with all his strength, it will be terrible.

"Right……"

Ding Hui murmured, glancing at Fang Yu out of the corner of his eye.

She wanted to try out how conventional believers would react to various drugs.

But... I really want to do those very intimate experiments with him.

Thinking of this, Ding Hui felt even happier and almost hummed a little tune.

"By the way, Tai Xuelin is not with you, so where did he die?" Fang Yu suddenly remembered something and asked.

Ding Hui spread his hands and said, "How would I know? The hall masters take turns to wait outside. I don't even know whose turn it is now."

Fang Yu was so worried that he rushed directly into the house without even checking to see if there was anyone waiting outside.

Now when he went out, he saw a silly guy on the roof bowing to Fang Yu who was looking at him.

"Meet Mr. Diao."

【Xiong Rudong: 4111/4111. 】

"Why is it still your turn?" Fang Yu asked puzzledly.

Xiong Rudong was the one guarding the house last night, and he was still the one guarding the house today. Didn't Fa Hongwen arrange the shifts? He also checked it for me to see, otherwise I wouldn't be so nervous and rush back here.

Xiong Rudong scratched his head, not quite understanding the situation, and said embarrassedly.

"It was indeed not my turn to take the shift, but when Hall Master Tai came to take over from me, his face was extremely grim. He asked me to take his shift for a day because he had other things to do. I saw that he seemed to be holding the note tightly in his hand, as if something serious had happened, so I agreed."

"But when I asked him further, he just shook his head and walked away."

"It's just one more day on duty anyway, so I didn't think much about it and stayed until now... But Master Diao, you suddenly barged into the room. If I hadn't seen who it was, I would have almost stopped you."

Xiong Rudong smiled innocently, with an inexplicable persuasiveness.

That was... a false alarm.

After thinking about it, Fang Yu was still a little worried.

"Ding Hui." Fang Yu shouted into the house.

"What?" the person in the room responded.

"Get ready and follow me to see the gang leader. Before Master Quan Heng arrives, you should stay with me and don't run around randomly."

"Okay!"

Ding Hui showed her white teeth and smiled.

"Then wait for me, I'll finish it off."

Jin Liyu is in the final processing stage and will be done soon. Ding Hui doesn't want to stop, and it won't take much time.

"Ok, I will wait for you."

Fang Yu was waiting outside, standing with the silly Xiong Rudong.

Although Fang Yu had a good impression of this guy, there was actually not much to talk about.

But it was awkward to just stare at each other, so he asked.

"You said that when Hall Master Tai came to hand over the shift, he was holding a note in his hand?"

"Correct."

"What's written on it? Did you see it?"

"I did not see."

“…didn’t you take a look?”

"I did not see."

Really honest...

"I'm here!" Ding Hui's voice came from the room, and then a beautiful figure came out of the room.

"What are you doing?" Ding Hui turned around on the spot under Fang Yu's gaze, her skirt fluttering, and then blinked.

"Does it look good?"

Fang Yu:......

"Did you change your clothes?"

"of course!"

The emerald green skirt has a spring feel, making people feel like they are bathed in the spring breeze, and is very pleasing to the eyes and comfortable.

However, Fang Yu, feeling awkward, still forced himself to look away.

"Let's go."

As he took a step to leave, a cold little hand suddenly came up to him and held his big hand tightly.

Fang Yu froze.

Ding Hui said with a smile.

"Let's go."

This time, it was Ding Hui who took the lead and led him forward.

Xiong Rudong watched the two men leave and scratched his head.

Now, should he follow the two of them... or stay here to protect the house?
