Chapter 96: The Weak Are Prey to the Strong

Soon, someone discovered it and directly called the Law Enforcement Bureau.

Gao Chenchen brought people over and then cordoned off the area.

After confirming the identity, they quickly determined the cause of death.

Suicide.

But they were puzzled as to why Xie Hui would commit suicide.

"Captain, something's not right, look at his neck."

A law enforcer said.

Gao Chenchen also noticed something wrong in the surveillance footage.

Xie Hui's neck was twisted, extremely horrifying, as if it had been broken.

And his movements were not those of a normal person.

"There's a problem, check who Xie Hui had contact with beforehand."

Gao Chenchen said.

"Yes."

Her subordinates immediately sprang into action.

Gao Chenchen's expression grew solemn.

She had a feeling that this matter was absolutely not that simple.

"Right, check if there are any other people's fingerprints on Xie Hui's body."

"Okay."

A series of matters were arranged.

Soon Gao Chenchen got the answer.

All the evidence pointed to one person.

Qin Yang.

On Xie Hui's body, fingerprints not belonging to him were also found.

Was it Qin Yang who did it?

Gao Chenchen's expression grew solemn.

"Although I don't know how he did it, I can be certain that his neck wasn't broken by a fall; it was broken before he jumped off the overpass, as if twisted by tremendous force."

The coroner said.

From the point where Xie Hui hit the ground, his neck would not have been broken by the impact.

In other words, Xie Hui's death is suspicious.

"But once the neck is twisted, not only could he not walk onto the overpass, even being alive would be basically impossible—how did he get to the overpass? It's really strange."

The coroner said.

And Gao Chenchen found it not strange at all.

She thought for a moment and said, "For now, don't publicize this matter; I'll make a decision when I return."

"Yes."

The coroner hurriedly said.

At Ji Dou Dou's doorstep, Gao Chenchen came over.

Qin Yang sensed Gao Chenchen's aura and was somewhat surprised.

He opened the door, his gaze falling on Gao Chenchen, and smiled, "Captain Gao, what brings you to see me?"

Gao Chenchen said, "I have something I'd like to ask you; is now convenient?"

Ji Dou Dou smiled and indicated she didn't mind.

"Alright, let's go outside to talk."

Qin Yang said.

Gao Chenchen nodded.

Then she and Qin Yang went out.

After walking a stretch, Gao Chenchen said, "Xie Hui is dead."

"Hmm."

Qin Yang nodded.

"He looks like he committed suicide, but our findings show he was already dead before jumping off the overpass, and fingerprints not his own were found on his neck."

"I killed him."

Qin Yang said.

Gao Chenchen choked slightly.

She had thought Qin Yang would at least pretend a little, but he didn't pretend at all.

"Why did you kill him?"

Gao Chenchen asked.

"He insulted my people."

Qin Yang said.

"Is it that simple?"

Gao Chenchen was stunned.

She never expected that Qin Yang would kill someone over such a simple reason.

Qin Yang smiled and said, "You think I'd give some lofty, righteous excuse? He tried to use his status to suppress others, but he wasn't as strong as me, so I killed him—it's that simple: the weak are prey to the strong."

"Is your world really like that?"

Gao Chenchen asked.

Qin Yang shook his head.

Gao Chenchen was somewhat surprised.

Could I have guessed wrong?

At this moment, Qin Yang explained: "In our world, as long as you are weak and not one of us, merely living is a crime; the strong can hold life and death over that person, entirely depending on the strong's will."

That's so cruel.

Gao Chenchen shuddered all over.

She began to somewhat understand Qin Yang's attitude.

"I understand."

Gao Chenchen finished speaking and prepared to leave.

Qin Yang was somewhat surprised and said, "You're not here to arrest me, are you?"

Gao Chenchen shrugged and said, "You're a good person; although you speak cruelly, you're not bad at heart. You killed Xie Hui because he deserved to die. I know he's done many disgusting things, but lacking evidence, I couldn't arrest him. I like your approach."

Qin Yang laughed.

He gave Gao Chenchen a approving glance.

"In that case, we can consider ourselves kindred spirits."

Qin Yang said with a smile.

"Great minds think alike, right?"

Gao Chenchen laughed.

She extended her hand and said to Qin Yang, "From now on, anyone I can't handle, I'll leave to you."

Qin Yang rubbed his nose, wondering if he had any free time.

But seeing the other's expectant look, he still reached out his hand.

"I'll reluctantly agree."

Qin Yang said.

Gao Chenchen was made to laugh by Qin Yang.

However, she also realized that Qin Yang wasn't particularly enthusiastic about eliminating evils for the people.

Only if provoked would Qin Yang take action.

This made Gao Chenchen feel it's a pity.

Having Qin Yang's strength yet not using it made her feel regretful.

"Alright, it's fine. You're someone who does big things; I know that, so I won't disturb you."

Gao Chenchen said.

She knew well that what Dragon Pavilion had to deal with were not ordinary people.

Asking Qin Yang to help handle ordinary people I couldn't manage was indeed overkill, so it's no wonder Qin Yang was unwilling.

Gao Chenchen prepared to leave.

Just then, a figure darted out from nearby, brandishing a dagger and stabbing straight at Gao Chenchen.

Gao Chenchen jumped in fright and was about to dodge.

But thinking that Qin Yang stood behind her, if she dodged the dagger would strike Qin Yang instead.

Thinking this, Gao Chenchen gritted her teeth and stood still.

She wanted to block this blow, at least not let the assailant harm Qin Yang.

Qin Yang had long known someone was following them; seeing the opponent make a move, he merely smiled.

It was just a somewhat fierce ordinary person, posing no threat to him.

But I never expected the target of the killing to be Gao Chenchen.

And Gao Chenchen could clearly have dodged, yet she chose to stand before me to block the blade.

Qin Yang laughed, then grabbed Gao Chenchen in an embrace, pulling her into his arms, and with his other hand reached out directly.

The sharp dagger was seized directly in his hand, and his hand suffered not a scratch.

The next moment, Qin Yang reversed the dagger and flung it straight onto the opponent's thigh.

The opponent screamed and collapsed to the ground.

Qin Yang, somewhat annoyed, kicked out.

Instantly, the opponent's wail cut off abruptly.

Only then did Gao Chenchen react, hurriedly asking, "Did you kill him?"

"No, he just passed out. He was likely aiming at you; my enemies aren't that stupid to send an ordinary person to kill me."

Qin Yang said.

Originally that thrust was aimed at the opponent's forehead, but he changed his mind and struck the thigh instead.

Gao Chenchen also agreed with that.

With Qin Yang's strength, an ordinary person poses no threat whatsoever.
