Starting from a short stick, becoming the master of the universe

Chapter 104: Has the real murderer been found?
As dusk fell, the slums gradually became quiet.

Jiang Cheng sat at the table, eating dinner under the candlelight.

He still didn't go to set up the stall in the afternoon.

Ever since he got the secret manual of Broken Jade Fist yesterday at noon, he has devoted his whole heart to practicing the boxing.

As of now, nearly thirty hours have passed.

Jiang Cheng's mind moved, and a panel appeared.

[Broken Jade Fist (Part 2156.6): Not Yet Started (3000/)]

There is only about one third left before the experience bar is full.

At the same time, the effect of the black jade paste has also decreased a lot, from ten times at the beginning to only seven times now. It is estimated that by tomorrow, it will be six times, five times, and four times.

"If this trend continues, it won't take a day, at the latest tomorrow at noon, to get started."

Jiang Cheng felt anticipation in his heart.

Once you master the Broken Jade Fist, you will be able to absorb the Force into your body.

I don’t know what it will feel like at that time.

During the break, he also tried to practice the Jade Breaking Technique.

Although the above formula was very mysterious, Jiang Cheng still achieved results. After sitting in meditation for ten minutes, his experience points increased by 0.1 points.

Look at the 5000-point experience bar behind the Jade Breaking Technique.

Jiang Cheng decisively gave up and decided to follow the advice of countless predecessors in the field of Jade Breaking Technique and wait until he could absorb a trace of the Force through the Jade Breaking Fist before practicing again.

Just then, there was a knock on the door.

"Xiaocheng, are you home? I'm Mrs. Liu."

A woman's voice sounded.

"It's Mrs. Liu."

Jiang Cheng no longer ignored the knock on the door like he did in the afternoon.

Firstly, he was practicing boxing at the time and there was a boxing manual on the table. If someone saw him, he might get into trouble.

Secondly, the person outside the door was one of the two families he asked to look after his house.

"Yes, Xiaocheng, can you open the door? Sister Liu wants to discuss something with you." The woman outside pleaded.

"Wait a moment, I'll be right there."

Jiang Cheng put away the boxing manual, walked over and opened the door.

Standing outside the door was a middle-aged woman who was about 1.5 meters tall, with a pale face and thin body.

When she saw Jiang Cheng open the door, the smile on her face became even wider.

Seeing the food on the table, he hurriedly said, "Xiao Cheng, I'm so sorry to disturb your meal."

"fine."

Jiang Cheng had already guessed the other party's intention, and he still had to continue practicing boxing later, so he asked directly: "Mrs. Liu, are you here to borrow money from me?"

Upon hearing this, the other party gave an awkward smile.

She originally wanted to exchange a few words.

"Yeah, Xiaocheng, I don't want to say this, but today, people from the Iron Fist Gang came to the street."

"The Iron Fist Gang is here?"

When Jiang Cheng heard the news, his pupils dilated slightly.

"Yes, I heard that more than ten of them came, and they all looked fierce. They said that they would take over this place in three days. Anyone who wants to set up a stall on the street must pay 2,500 yuan a month."

Mrs. Liu said quickly.

"It's increased by five hundred."

Jiang Cheng said to himself.

"Yes, when the Wild Wolf Gang was here, it was only two thousand a month. When the Iron Fist Gang came, the rate increased by nearly 30%. Not only that, the management fee also increased by 50%. From now on, it will be fifteen thousand a month." After saying this, she looked pleading, "Xiao Cheng, you know my family's situation. The Wild Wolf Gang just collected the management fee a few days ago. We scraped together the two thousand yuan. But now the Iron Fist Gang is here again and wants fifteen hundred. My family really can't afford that much money. Xiao Cheng, can you lend us some money? We will pay you back when we have money!"

Jiang Cheng sighed when he heard this.

"Mrs. Liu, I don't have much money on me."

There is a 90% chance that once you lend this money out, you won't be able to get it back.

Moreover, if the other family knew that Mrs. Liu had borrowed money from him, would they also come to borrow money?

What about other people around?
Even if I had more than 20,000 yuan in unexpected money, I couldn't afford to spend it like this.

"Xiaocheng, sister-in-law begs you, please help us. We really can't come up with so much money. If we can't pay it by then, we will definitely be kicked out." As she said this, she was about to kneel down.

Fortunately, Jiang Cheng was quick to act and grabbed her.

"Mrs. Liu, let's talk, but what are you doing?"

Jiang Cheng frowned, feeling a little uncomfortable.

"Xiaocheng, I..."

Mrs. Liu's eyes were a little evasive.

"Okay, Sister Liu, you go back first. If I have money in a few days, I will lend you some. If not, I can't do anything about it."

"Small town..."

Mrs. Liu wanted to say something, but after seeing Jiang Cheng’s unhappy expression, she had to walk out.

After locking the door, Jiang Cheng breathed a sigh of relief.

This Mrs. Liu does have some ulterior motives, which makes people dislike her.

But it is unreasonable to blame and resent these weak people.

Because they are also victims, and the culprit is the Iron Fist Gang, or rather, countless Iron Fist Gangs.

It’s not that stall fees and management fees cannot exist, but everything should be excessive, not to mention that they become more and more excessive each time.

Jiang Cheng looked down at his arms. To become stronger, he must become stronger!
……

same moment.

The door of the casino on the street was closed and the lobby on the first floor was pitch black.

Only one room on the second floor had a light on.

Wang Weisen looked at the list in his hand, reading it over and over again several times, and felt a gloomy feeling in his heart.

"Is this the result of your investigation over the past few days? Not a single suspect? Are you kidding me?"

He slammed the table and roared at the two people standing in front of him.

In order to investigate the murderer, he spent more than 100,000 yuan, not to mention the half of his property he gave to Yue Shan, asking him to investigate the Iron Fist Gang and delay as much time as possible.

At noon, Yue Shan sent someone to tell him that he had tried his best and that the Iron Fist Gang would arrive in three days at most.

As it turned out, they did come.

At most, there are only seven or eight days, which is almost half of the half month agreed upon at the beginning.

There is no way around it. Losers have no say.

But what he didn't expect was that after so many days, the gym had not found any results from the investigation, and the core disciples of the gym all had alibis.

This makes him look like a clown.

"Brother Sen, please don't be angry first."

One of them quickly said, "Maybe the people on the list are not the murderers. And I have a clue. That person might be the real murderer who killed Brother Bao and the others."

Wang Weisen was about to get angry, but after hearing the following words, he held back his impulse and asked, "What clues?"

"Brother Sen, do you still remember the boy selling roasted sweet potatoes that I mentioned to you two days ago?" the man said with a smile.

Wang Weisen narrowed his eyes and said coldly, "Remember, so, you don't want to tell me that he is the real murderer who killed Abao?"
