Hidden moth

Chapter 119: Beware of Piercing Arrows When Doing Evil

Yan Congfei was no longer breathing, and there was only a corpse lying on the sofa. Chen Yuhua had just screamed when someone grabbed her neck from behind and covered her mouth. Someone whispered in her ear, "Stop making trouble, be good!"

Chen Yuhua was so frightened that her eyes rolled back and she fainted on the spot... When she regained consciousness, she found herself leaning on the sofa, and sitting opposite her was a man with ordinary appearance but fierce eyes.

There was a gleaming dagger on the coffee table next to the man. He asked in a gloomy tone, "Awake?"

"Who are you...what happened to him..." Chen Yuhua's voice was hoarse and seemed very weak. At this moment, he seemed unable to shout.

The man said frivolously, "Yan Congfei, huh? He's already dead... Don't get me wrong, I didn't kill him. You discovered he was secretly having sex with your daughter, so you poisoned him."

Chen Yuhua: "What did you say? I didn't...!"

Man: "No, you did! He's a third-level sorcerer, so poisoning him isn't easy. But you know him, and you know he won't be on guard against you. So you poisoned his tea and took the opportunity to refill his water when he was halfway through.

You killed someone impulsively, then became frightened and completely despaired, so you drank the rest of the tea yourself. Perhaps you felt unable to face your daughter who was about to arrive home."

Chen Yuhua glanced at the coffee table again and found half a cup of tea on it. She suddenly became excited and tried to straighten her body and said, "No, don't do this..."

The man interrupted her and said, "I don't want to leave any traces of struggle or coercion, so it's best if you drink the tea on your own initiative. This way you can leave perfect fingerprints on the cup.

If you cooperate, your daughter will be fine! We won't touch her again, and we still need her to call the police."

Chen Yuhua: "You can't do this... The police won't believe it. Shumen, yes, Shumen will also find out the truth."

Man: "Yan Congfei sent a message to a friend this afternoon saying, 'Chen Yuhua has discovered my affair with her daughter and wants to talk to me tonight. What should I do?'

This is enough for the police to judge your motives. As for how your daughter explains to the police, that is none of my business. In short, if you want her to be safe, you have to listen to me.

Of course, it doesn’t matter whether you listen or not, but the consequences of not listening will be more painful. Drink it, my patience is limited…”

At this moment, Chen Yuhua suddenly let out another scream, but the sound was not loud and sounded very strange, like a hiccup that was blocked by something. At the same time, his body softened and fell on his back on the sofa.

Because there was suddenly something extra on the man's head.

A crossbow arrow came out from the left temple, and a small piece of the arrow shaft with tail feathers was left on the right temple.

Because the crossbow arrow was shot too fast, Chen Yuhua couldn't see clearly at all. He only saw something suddenly stuck in the man's head, and then his head tilted and he fell to the ground, and the chair was also knocked over.

Judging from the direction, the crossbow arrow should have been shot from the bedroom. The bedroom door was open the whole time, and there was no one inside just now!
He Kao appeared out of nowhere, as if he had known the man's location for a long time. He shot the crossbow in his hand as soon as he appeared, and the man was completely unprepared.

Hunting crossbows are banned in the East. Modern compound crossbows are made of high-tech materials, have complex structures and are extremely powerful. A trained person can shoot them with great accuracy and make very little noise.

The hunting crossbow used by He Kao has an accurate shooting range of 200 meters and an even longer killing distance. Even a big wild boar with thick skin and flesh can be knocked down with one arrow. It is not only very expensive, but also cannot be purchased from legal channels.

It is the "legacy" left by Zhao Huanzhen and his gang.

I remember that the kidnappers asked He Kao to make a call for help. He Kao called Qian Guran and said that he was in some trouble and the location was Sanxi Bridge in Pugang Town. He asked Qian Guran to find him there, but he hinted that he was in Happy Valley.

Over at Sanxi Bridge, an accomplice of the kidnappers had set up an ambush, armed with a hunting crossbow like this. But it wasn't Lao Qian who showed up, but Xiaopang. Xiaopang didn't play by the rules, appearing directly at the abandoned amusement park.

He Kao told Xiaopang that there were accomplices of the kidnappers on the other side of Sanxi Bridge... Later, Xiaopang said that they had all been dealt with, and returned to He Kao's house with a hunting crossbow.

Xiaopang returned all the guns that were taken from Sawa to their original places, but he left the pistols and hunting crossbows, including thirty crossbow arrows, that were taken from the kidnappers to He Kao because he was short on time and had no time to deal with them.

He Kao later put all the things away in a secret base deep in Gushan Mountain, and even found time to practice in a deserted place. Today, they finally came in handy.

After all, this is a residential area and it is not suitable for shooting.

When He Kao walked into the living room, the hunting crossbow in his hand had disappeared. As long as his abilities were not restricted, Yin E could take and put things away so quickly, it was as if he was switching out of thin air.

His attire changed a little bit. He wore a hooded top that covered his hair, a pair of large black-framed brown sunglasses, and a large black mask on his face.

"Don't scream, stay calm! I am the Hidden Moth. You should know the Hidden Moth."

He Kao's voice was very low, unlike his usual voice, and he directly revealed his identity as Yin Mo. He continued, "I just killed him and saved you temporarily. But I can save you temporarily, but I can't save you forever.

If someone wants to kill you and later finds out you're not dead, they might not let it go. If you want to stay alive, let's have a good chat and see if we can come up with a good solution."

These words contained a lot of information, and Chen Yuhua's brain seemed to be overloaded. For a long time, his lips trembled but he didn't make any sound, and his eyes were staring blankly.

He Kaoxian didn't disturb her. He dragged the two bodies into another room and out of her sight. Then he turned around, picked up a chair, and sat in the position where the strange man had just sat.

When he spoke again, he tried to sound calm: "Yang Lingxi's flight is delayed and will not land for another hour. Before she arrives, there are some things that need to be taken care of, otherwise none of you will survive."

Chen Yuhua's eyes finally moved, and he struggled to say, "Murderer, wasn't I just...?"

He Kao: "He is not the murderer, at least not the murderer of Yan Congfei, he is just a cleaner who stayed here specially to wait for you, responsible for cleaning up the mess.

The deceased was Yan Congfei, right? I heard he was a third-rank cultivator. The cleaner was at most a first-rank cultivator. He couldn't have killed Yan Congfei. Someone else must have done it.

Now I ask you, was it Yan Congfei who assigned Yang Lingxi to Qiyuan? What is your relationship with him, Yang Lingxi, and what is Yan Congfei's background..."

Cleaner is a term that He Kao learned from watching spy movies, and it is quite appropriate to use it in this occasion.

He Kao did not stay in Yang Lingxi's house all the time as that would make him too easily exposed, but he set up surveillance outside the door.

Both surveillance cameras in the entrance corridor on the seventh floor were broken. Now it seems that it was not an accident, but someone deliberately broke them. However, the kind-hearted He Kao quickly repaired one of them.

Due to time constraints, He Kao was unable to completely repair the surveillance system and only had time to reset the line. The real-time signal could not be sent to the community control room and could only be sent to He Kao.

He didn't hide any other surveillance equipment because any cultivator of rank three or above who deliberately scanned it with their spiritual sense would easily discover it. However, surveillance equipment that had been destroyed in the open would often be overlooked by the destroyer.

Around six o'clock in the afternoon, three people came to Chen Yuhua's home, including Yan Congfei. The other two were dressed similarly to He Kao, so their faces could not be seen clearly.

They entered the house normally, and Yan Congfei had the key, but ten minutes later, the other two left.

He Kao restrained his breath from a distance, not even looking directly at them. He tried his best to passively receive information and never actively send any information, like a silent submarine.

Because the assassin's intuition or spiritual perception told him that the three people just now were very dangerous, and one of them was particularly strong. Because he had secretly tried, even behind these people, the hidden E ability would be limited and could not get through.

Later, He Kao discovered that he could move to any corner of Chen Yuhua's house without restriction, which meant that the person who remained in the house was no longer conscious.

He Kao returned and found that the strange man was indeed dead. He did not know Yan Congfei, nor did he know the relationship between Yan Congfei and Yang Lingxi, but he could guess that the man must have been silenced.

A master deliberately let him die here, and it seems that there is other arrangement. Just at this moment, the "cleaner" arrived at the scene.

The cleaner's cultivation level was far inferior to that of the three people just now. He Kao was actually hiding in the bedroom's large closet, but when he took action, he didn't open the door and come out, but flashed directly to the most suitable position.

The cleaner seemed a little narcissistic, as if he thought he was creating some perfect work. He couldn't help but talk a lot before killing someone, allowing He Kao to analyze what had happened.

It turns out the deceased was Yan Congfei, a third-level sorcerer, possibly Yang Lingxi's stepfather, who must have been behind Yang Lingxi's assassination. However, Yan Congfei was also being manipulated, and when Yang Lingxi's identity was exposed, the person behind the plot killed him to silence him.

But Yan Congfei must have a reasonable death, right? Or at least a seemingly reasonable death. Getting the phone's power-on method and using it to send a message to a friend would be a tip to the police.

The cleaner is specifically responsible for finishing this kind of dirty work. His skills don't have to be very high, he just has to handle it professionally. Anyway, he is only left to deal with an ordinary person like Chen Yuhua.

There is another possibility. Even if someone suspects that this is an assassination, at most they can only trace it back to the cleaner, but not the real murderer behind the scenes... As for whether this is the case, He Kao cannot be sure because the cleaner was killed by him.

All of this must be done before Yang Lingxi returns, so that even if someone follows Yang Lingxi to track her down, the clues will have been cut off.

But those people never expected that Yin'e would arrive early.

He Kao came to investigate the truth, not to save people, but he didn't mind saving Chen Yuhua, which would also help to find out the truth...

More than an hour later, Yang Lingxi's flight finally landed, and Chen Yuhua was actually waiting at the airport.
