Iron Snow Clouds

Chapter 803: The Palm
After they agreed on the time and place to meet, they all went back to prepare, and they all dressed up in disguise.

Before disguising himself, Tie Hongyan told Xie Hui the news that Lan Haocheng was no longer alive. He was stunned at first and simply didn't want to believe it. Pi Deliang beside him also felt that it was too sudden.

Xie Hui heard Tie Hongyan say that she was going to deal with the matter, and asked her if she knew the cause of Lan Haocheng's death. She said that it might be the poison of the snake body arch, but she had not yet gone to the scene to see it, so she was not sure. This kind of thing can only be accurately told to him after it is confirmed. She did not tell him the details such as the note attached to the snake body arch.

Xie Hui was very sad because Lan Haocheng had passed away, but due to his identity, he could not go to the scene with others. After all, only Tie Hongyan knew what happened to him. Even if he was in disguise, it would be a big problem for him to appear in front of Tan Sizhi and others. He begged Tie Hongyan to find out the truth and give justice to Lan Haocheng. Tie Hongyan said that even if he didn't say it, he would try his best.

Tie Hongyan, Tan Sizhi, Li Yu, the autopsy expert, Quan Liu, Ji Dongzi and Fan Qinchang all disguised themselves and met at the agreed time and place, and then set off.

After they arrived at the scene, an expert in autopsies determined through autopsies that Lan Haocheng died of poisoning from a snake bite, while the other victim nearby was killed by a palm strike.

The crowd found a witness named Zheng Xiangtan, talked to her for a few words, and then listened to her account of what happened.

Zheng Xiangtan said: "I was quite far away from them at the time. When I heard the person you said was called Lan Haocheng shout, I was startled and looked in her direction. There was a man in gray clothes next to her. He probably realized that she was beyond saving. He looked around, jumped up and grabbed the man in black clothes nearby and slapped him. Then he seemed to say a few words to the man in black clothes, and then slapped him again, and threw the man in black clothes to the ground and left. The place where this person fell to the ground should be very close to Lan Haocheng. I saw it from a distance. It was just my feeling that the place where this person fell to the ground should be very close to Lan Haocheng. I was so scared at the time that I didn't dare to make any sound. I thought I was still far away, otherwise I don't know what would happen."

The "man in black" that Zheng Xiangtan mentioned was the other dead person beside Lan Haocheng.

"Did you see them before Lan Haocheng shouted?" Tie Hongyan asked.

"No, I didn't pay any attention at that time." Zheng Xiangtan answered decisively.

Tie Hongyan then asked: "Where did the man in gray grab the man in black from?"

Zheng Xiangtan pointed to a place and said, "I was far away at the time, so the location I pointed to might not be accurate, but I feel... roughly... it should be around here."

"Is that man in gray very fast in catching people?" Tan Si asked.

"It was very fast! It was so fast! I was stunned! He grabbed people quickly, hit people quickly, and left quickly after hitting people." Zheng Xiangtan said.

"From what you saw, the man in black was indeed killed by the man in gray?" Quan Liu asked.

"Yeah, I think so." Zheng Xiangtan replied.

"You don't know why Lan Haocheng shouted?" Ji Dongzi asked.
