After hearing Li Chuan's words, Han Chen's expression was grim: "It must be the Ni Family who did this!"
Yang Xin'Er also furrowed her brows: "What should we do now?"
Li Chuan: "Let make a call first."
With that, Li Chuan called Zhao Donglai.
Zhao Donglai naturally knew about the incident involving Zhou Jianwei. After hearing that Li Chuan saved Zhou Jianwei's life, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Zhou Jianwei is injured, and given Jiangzhou's current situation, there's no suitable person to fill his position. So it's very likely that soone from outside will be parachuted into Jiangzhou."
"As for who that will be, let inquire first, as this matter is too sudden, and no one was prepared. Even the organization will need ti to confirm the candidate."
"Alright, I'll have to trouble Director Zhao then."
Li Chuan nodded: "Also, I need to visit Director Zhou's house."
Zhao Donglai: "That's no problem; I'll inform the staff over there."
Zhao Donglai was aware of Li Chuan's capabilities and was delighted to hear he was going to the scene to solve the case.
After Li Chuan hung up the phone, he still had a bad feeling.
The Ni Family wouldn't act without a reason.
This new leader who's been appointed is probably soone from the Ni Family faction.
If his guess was correct, their situation would beco very passive.
"Let's go, and take a look at Director Zhou's house."
Li Chuan said to Yang Xin'Er and Han Chen.
"But what can we do by going there? Director Zhou's house has a big hole from the explosion, everything that could burn in the kitchen and living room has burned, the police have already checked, and the surveillance is broken, with no useful clues found." Han Chen shrugged.
"Let's go have a look anyway. Sotis my thods are more effective than the police's." Li Chuan's lips curved into a playful smile.
"Alright, Miss Yang, let's go."
Han Chen nodded.
In the car.
Yang Xin'Er: "Li Chuan, are you planning to retrieve the lost Mahjong tiles?"
Li Chuan: "Exactly, if we can find the whereabouts of the Mahjong tiles, we can find the culprit. As long as this can be proven to be the Ni Family's doing, we can turn the tables!"
Killing a governnt leader is a major cri, not to ntion causing such a panic in the neighborhood. Even if this parachuted leader is from the Ni Family faction, he wouldn't dare to support them by then.
Unless they want to be investigated!
Soon, the three arrived at Zhou Jianwei's residential area.
Zhou Jianwei lived in a row house, with a security cordon already placed around it.
"That's Director Zhou's house." Han Chen pointed to the house with a hole from the explosion and blackened outer walls and said, "The explosion sound was said to be very loud. The entire neighborhood shook like an earthquake, and the glass in the next house shattered!"
Li Chuan observed around: "The caras inside the neighborhood aren't working. What about the caras on the street outside?"
Han Chen: "They've been checked, but no valuable clues were found. This is the city center, there's a lot of foot traffic outside. If that Mahjong box hadn't gone missing, this would just be an ordinary gas explosion incident."
Yang Xin'Er shook her head: "If it was really done by the Ni Family, they would never leave us any clues! Ni Yongruo, that woman, is not simple."
"That may not necessarily be the case." Li Chuan sneered, "To , there's no such thing as a perfect cri in this world!"
Li Chuan's words left Yang Xin'Er and Han Chen puzzled.
Yang Xin'Er: "What are you going to do?"
"Co with . Soon, Director Zhou will give us the answers we want."
Li Chuan said as he walked towards the wrecked house of Zhou Jianwei.
The officers on duty had been inford in advance and did not stop them.
Once inside the devastated living room, Li Chuan brought out a few strands of bloodied hair.
These were collected when he treated Zhou Jianwei.
Then, Li Chuan sat cross-legged in the living room, muttering sothing under his breath. He perford a set of complex spells in the air, and the strands of bloodied hair slowly floated up from his hand!
This scene left Han Chen and Yang Xin'Er with their skin crawling!
"This… it's actually flying! This is magic?" Han Chen felt a chill rising down his back.
Yang Xin'Er was equally shocked. She knew Li Chuan was impressive, but she never expected him to be this powerful!
Watching Li Chuan mutter spells and rapidly performing magic gestures with one hand, could he be a Taoist disciple?
Yang Xin'Er, having been in the Jianghu from a young age, knew a lot of secret insider information.
Among them were people from the Mystic Sect, individuals possessing supernatural abilities, residing in remote, secluded places with thods beyond ordinary comprehension.
The techniques Li Chuan was using now, weren't they just like those people?
While the two were in awe, the floating hair in the air made two soft popping sounds and exploded into two puffs of white smoke!
These smoke clouds circled over Li Chuan's head, gathering without dispersing, and eventually turned into a small white snake that burrowed into the top of Li Chuan's head!
This scene solidified Yang Xin'Er's inner conviction; the man before her was surely a legendary spell master, a Mystic Sect expert. How could anyone else have such extraordinary ans?
As for Han Chen, he was already sweating coldly!
He was grateful he was an ally with Li Chuan and not an enemy!
At that mont, a segnt of mory appeared in Li Chuan's mind.
It was clearly Zhou Jianwei's mory.
The mory began when Yang Xin'Er and Han Chen took him ho.
After entering the house, Zhou Jianwei dozed off in a haze from drinking too much, felt very thirsty, and woke up to go to the kitchen for a drink.
While drinking, a tall man wearing a mask with a knife scar at the corner of his eye suddenly appeared behind him, smashing a kettle onto Zhou Jianwei's head.
Zhou Jianwei collapsed to the ground, still sowhat conscious. In his blurred vision, the man opened the black case containing the golden Mahjong, revealing an excited gleam in his eyes. It was then clear that this masked man only had nine fingers!
Subsequently, he opened a gas canister, disconnected the hose, and placed a small black box on the canister.
Then, the man picked up the black case, cast a cold glance at Zhou Jianwei, and left without looking back!
After that, there was a huge explosion and flas everywhere!
Then there was endless darkness…
Li Chuan slowly opened his eyes, looking a bit pale, with cold sweat on his forehead: "The culprit has a knife scar at the corner of his eye, only nine fingers, is very tall, and has a notch in his right ear."
Han Chen: "I'll have the brothers check it out right away!"
At this ti, Han Chen could say he had unconditional trust in Li Chuan!
There was no way around it; the thods Li Chuan perford were beyond his comprehension!
Yang Xin'Er: "Don't bother with that, I know who it is now."
