Iron Snow Clouds

Chapter 855

"Why did he ask you to kill Xie Hui?" Tie Hongyan asked Qiao Anbo.

"Because he asked Xie Hui to do something for him, but Xie Hui failed to do it. I also hate Xie Hui, because he failed to get things done before me, and made the consequences of my failure to get things done even more serious." Qiao Anbo said.

"How did you do it?" Tie Hongyan asked.

"I poisoned him with paraffin smoke. It was dark and I couldn't see clearly, but I was worried that others might see me clearly. Fortunately, I picked up a blanket and wrapped him up with it to prevent being discovered. What I can't understand is that Xie Hui didn't die soon after being poisoned. He even asked me why I wanted to kill him. Although he could still speak at the time, I knew he was poisoned from his voice. I saw that he was dying, so I told him the reason, and then he died. At that time, I wanted to wait a little longer to make sure that he would not wake up again before leaving, but there was a noise nearby, and I was afraid of being discovered, so I left quickly." Qiao Anbo replied.

"What kind of blanket did you pick up?" Tie Hongyan asked.

Qiao Anbo didn't expect Tie Hongyan to ask such a question, and said: "It was so dark that I couldn't see clearly. I was afraid of being discovered by others, and I was very nervous. I didn't pay attention to the blanket. Let me recall... Later... Later, we came to a place with moonlight. The moonlight was blocked by something and could only shine on a small area. It was too small. After lifting the blanket, I only saw that Xie Hui's eyes were open..." At this point, Qiao Anbo was suddenly stunned, as if he remembered something, and then asked Tie Hongyan: "Acting Chief, why do you suddenly ask this?"

"Because I know that it is not an ordinary blanket." Tie Hongyan said.

"Ah?" Qiao Anbo was surprised. He remembered that when he arrived at the moonlit place and lifted the blanket to see Xie Hui with his eyes open, there seemed to be a moment when the blanket gave him a familiar feeling. However, he was so nervous about killing Xie Hui at that time that he had no time to pay attention to such problems.

Tie Hongyan took out a blanket and said, "This is the blanket you used at that time."

"This?" Qiao Anbo couldn't believe it, thinking: This... is this true? How is it possible?
Tian Sha, Jian Liang, Jian Rou and Tian Wen all felt familiar with the blanket when they saw it, but they all thought: It can’t be such a coincidence!

Tie Hongyan asked, "Do you know who Ao Gong is?" Qiao Anbo was shocked again, "Why did the Acting Clan Leader suddenly mention this person to me? What does the Acting Clan Leader know?"

Tie Hongyan replied: "You forced him to sell the blanket, right?"

Qiao Anbo really couldn't imagine that Tie Hongyan would know so much, but he thought that at this point, it wouldn't matter if he told everything that had happened, so he said, "Yes."

"Of course you should know that this blanket has a number." Tie Hongyan said.

"I know." Qiao Anbo said.

Tian Sha, Jian Liang, Jian Rou and Tian Wen had never noticed that the blankets were numbered. Tian Sha thought: What number?

"The number of this blanket is forty-six." Tie Hongyan said, and then showed the blanket to Qiao Anbo.

"How could that be?" Qiao Anbo said as he looked at the blanket. The moment his eyes met the number "Forty-six", he was stunned again.

Qiao Anbo said: "This... this is actually one of the two blankets I sent to Mangyan Palace before! How can it be such a coincidence?!"
