Chapter 27 [027] The Real Murderer
Grandmaster?

Han Ming suddenly realized that he was dreaming.

But his strong physique, the explosive power hidden in his muscles, and the hardened bones and membranes all clearly told him that this was not a dream, but reality.

After practicing martial arts for so many years, my goal has always been to become a top-notch expert. As for becoming a grandmaster, I have never dreamed of doing so.

However, at this moment, the goal was not only achieved, but also exceeded.

Excited, ecstatic, ecstatic, unbelievable, and even want to cry.

"Whoosh, whoosh..."

After taking a few deep breaths to calm himself down, Han Ming regained his composure after a long while. He retracted his fist, turned around, looked at Gu Zheng without blinking, and spoke solemnly.

"Boss, you can marry my sister. You don't need to be my wife, a concubine will do!"

"...Xiaomei is only twelve years old." Gu Zheng said unhappily, "I gave you the source fruit just because I hope you can keep your position as the head of the police and take care of the Gu Mansion. I didn't ask you to marry my sister."

"I know."

Han Ming said sternly, "I didn't force Xiaomei. She told me a long time ago that she likes you and will marry you in this life. Look, boss, if you marry Xiaomei, we will be a family. Wouldn't it be more legitimate for me to take care of her?"

"...Get lost." Gu Zheng was too lazy to talk any more nonsense and pointed at the door, "Get lost now."

"I mean it!"

Han Ming walked towards the door while calculating, "Xiaomei is pretty, capable, smart, virtuous, and has a big butt. She can definitely give birth to a son. Pan'er, Wan'er, and Xue'er all like her. Even Master Gu has praised her. If you marry her as a concubine..."

Call ~
Gu Zheng stood up.

Whoosh!
Han Ming quickly opened the door and rushed out, shouting at the top of his voice as he ran away, "Boss, think about it carefully, my sister really likes you!"

...Consider your uncle.

Gu Zheng went out to wash up in a bad mood.

A body-strengthening fruit allowed Han Ming to enter the Grandmaster realm overnight. The effect was extraordinary and could be said to be maximized.

Of course, what have reached their limits are strength and physique, while agility and speed have improved, but not much.

As for other influences, Han Ming has to discover them slowly on his own.

"Give Dad the second one. I wonder if it can help him reach the Grandmaster level as well?"

……

……

After washing up, Gu Zheng went to the dining room and enjoyed the breakfast brought by the servants.

Eating...

"head!"

Han Ming ran in hurriedly from outside.

Gu Zheng raised his eyebrows and said coldly, "If you talk about marrying Xiaomei again..."

"It's not Xiaomei, it's Mr. Zhang. Something happened to him and he was killed!" Han Ming interrupted and said quickly, "Before I got home, Wang Meng told me that Mr. Zhang died in his front yard..."

"Zhang Hucheng is dead?" Gu Zheng dropped his chopsticks, picked up two steamed buns, threw them to Han Ming, took one for himself, ate while walking out, "Let's go to the scene."

"……it is good."

Han Ming followed behind, biting a steamed bun. "Wang Meng said that Mr. Zhang was stabbed to death from the back. The murderer should be someone close to him."

people around me?

Gu Zheng bit the steamed bun and thought while eating.

Left the Gu Mansion.

The speed was very fast along the way.

When I arrived at Zhang's house and just entered the gate, I heard Zhang Hucheng's wife and daughter crying and a man's loud voice cursing.

"I killed him, so what? Zhang Hucheng, that bastard, deserved to die! He could have died a long time ago!"

"Don't think I don't know that you hate him too and want him dead. I'll do it for you. You should thank me and treat me to a day's meal at Tianxiang Tower, a day's play at Fan Tower, and a day and a night's sleep at Fanhua Courtyard. Hahaha!" "Where's Gu Zheng? Why hasn't Gu Zheng come yet? I helped him get revenge. This month, Fan Tower's dividends will at least increase threefold, no, fivefold!"

"..."

The laughter was accompanied by shouting and cursing, which was extremely loud.

Gu Zheng and Han Ming walked over, one after the other, and ran into Wang Meng head-on.

"What's going on?" Gu Zheng raised his eyebrows.

"The leader is Niu Datie." Wang Meng replied, "We simply found someone to question at Zhang's house and found that Niu Datie looked flustered. We felt something was wrong, so we frightened him a little. As a result, he confessed directly and admitted that he killed Mr. Zhang."

"Ah?" Han Ming was stunned. "You confessed after just a scare?"

“Yeah.” Wang Meng spread his hands, a little speechless, “This guy used to be so arrogant, and he walked with his nose in the air. Who would have thought that he would be so scary…”

"Why did he kill Lord Zhang?" Gu Zheng asked.

"It is said that Lord Zhang wanted to escape, but he didn't take him with him." Wang Meng shrugged.

Zhang Hucheng escaped?

Why are you running away for no reason?
Gu Zheng was puzzled.

As they were talking, the three of them had already arrived at the garden where Niu Datie was being held.

"Gu Zheng! You're here!"

Niu Datie, with ropes tied around his body and wearing a yamen runner's uniform, knelt on the ground, his eyes red and he roared with all his might, "Gu Zheng, I've avenged you! That bastard Zhang Hucheng, had teamed up with Pang Qianding to trip you up, and even wanted to steal your Gu family's business. That bastard deserves a horrible death, I've dealt with him for you, you can relax and have a good sleep, you don't have to thank me too much, I just want Fanlou to give you five times more dividends this month! What do you think, am I very righteous? Hahaha..."

"You still talk about morality?" Li Yidao, who was holding him, said angrily, "Master Zhang treats you well, and you kill him just like that..."

"He deserves it!"

Niu Datie's face flushed, and he shouted with red eyes, "I have always been a dog for Zhang Hucheng. I have to do all the dirty and tiring work, but he is reluctant to give me money. He is so stingy that he even wants me to go out and get it myself! He..."

"Why did Lord Zhang run away?" Gu Zheng interrupted and asked directly.

"Why else? I'm afraid you'll settle the score with me later!"

Niu Datie stiffened his neck and said arrogantly, "You have already killed Pang Qianding. You will definitely kill him again before leaving. Zhang Hucheng, if you don't take this opportunity..."

"What nonsense are you talking about!?"

Han Ming interrupted angrily, "Pang Qianding was killed by Gu Tou because he colluded with the demons. Lord Zhang didn't collude with the demons, so why would Gu Tou kill him? Niu Datie, if you want to frame someone, you have to find a better excuse, don't slander people casually!"

"That's right. It was obviously you who was holding back your anger and wanted to take revenge on Lord Zhang, so you attacked him from behind, but you wanted to put the blame on Gu Tou. You have such a vicious heart."

"Niu Datie, your plan is full of loopholes."

"..."

Wang Meng, Li Yidao and others began to refute.

Perhaps Gu Zheng really had this plan to kill Zhang Hucheng before leaving Qingshi County.

But how could such words spread?

The Demon Slaying Division still has two small flags in the city!
Gu Zheng didn't say anything.

Instead, he squatted down and looked directly into Niu Datie's eyes from a close distance.

Niu Datie had a desperate expression. He shouted and cursed desperately even though he knew he was going to die. He looked like a crazy person.

But Gu Zheng had strong mental strength and after careful sensing, he discovered something was wrong.

When he looked into Niu Datie's eyes again, he immediately saw dullness, distraction and struggle hidden in the depths of the other's eyes.

He... was hypnotized, mentally disturbed, and controlled!
Gu Zheng doesn't know how to use this method of mentally controlling others, his Soul Slave Seal is more advanced.

In Qingshi City, there are only two people who have the opportunity to learn it.

They were Xiaoqi, Wu Kun and Chen Zhizhen, the Demon Slayers who stayed behind in the city.

Who of these two people is the real murderer?
