Chapter 1305: Investigate clearly within three days

~4 min read 685 words

"Who is so bold as to dare to act in the City Lord's Mansion, and even openly provoke us?"

"Could it be that person named Chen Ang?"

"Apart from him, we haven't had any grudges with anyone else lately."

"Impossible, he is not that kind of person." The girl in white immediately defended Chen Ang.

The girl in black was silent for a moment, then nodded and said casually.

"Given his personality, he should disdain doing such things."

Yue Xin, hearing the two of them speak for Chen Ang, sneered.

"Do you two like him? Why have you been speaking for him all this time?"

"Apart from him, is there anyone else who could do such a thing?"

"He dared to kill a member of our White Fox Clan in public; what would it matter if he killed another person and threw them into our courtyard?"

The girl in black furrowed her brows and said coldly: "You also said it yourself, he dared to kill a White Fox Clan member in public."

"How could he do such a despicable thing?"

"I think this was done deliberately by someone to provoke a conflict between our White Fox Clan and others."

The old woman nodded silently and looked at the girl in black with appreciation.

Immediately, her expression darkened.

"Without my order, you are not allowed to act recklessly."

"And you are not allowed to force this matter onto others."

"Yue Xin, go find the Sun-Moon City Lord now and tell him that someone died in our courtyard."

"By the way, when you go, tell everyone you see about this matter, and let everyone come here to watch the excitement."

"Yes."

Yue Xin agreed and left.

Before long, people knew something had happened here and ran over to watch the excitement.

When the Sun-Moon City Lord arrived, the courtyard was already crowded.

Chen Ang learned of this matter and also came with Shui Linglong and the others to join the excitement.

The Sun-Moon City Lord looked at the White Fox Clan member who had died miserably in the corner of the wall, his expression terrifyingly gloomy; because of his anger, the veins on his forehead were bulging.

"Who dares to kill in my City Lord's Mansion? This is outrageous!"

"Bai Shangqi, rest assured, I will definitely get to the bottom of this matter and give you an explanation."

The old woman known as Bai Shangqi smiled and said unhurriedly: "Then many thanks to the City Lord. I don't know how many days you need; dragging it out for too long probably won't do."

"Three days."

"Within three days, I will definitely find the real culprit and hand them over to you."

Leaving these words behind, the Sun-Moon City Lord left in anger.

Watching his departing back, Bai Shangqi suddenly let out a cold laugh in public and said with implication: "I fear you won't be able to find out clearly."

Everyone was confused, not knowing what Bai Shangqi meant, but some knew the key to it.

For example, Zi Yan.

"What does she mean? I get the impression she is suspecting the City Lord."

Shui Linglong said in a low voice.

Zi Yan lowered her voice and said: "The relationship between the White Fox Clan and the City Lord's Mansion is not very good."

"Is that so?" Shui Linglong was somewhat surprised.

She had always thought the relationship between the City Lord and the White Fox Clan was good.

When someone proposed protecting Chen Ang, the City Lord had been firmly opposed.

She thought the reason the Sun-Moon City Lord opposed it was because he had a good relationship with the White Fox Clan, or because he didn't want to offend the White Fox Clan.

But now it seemed that was not the case.

Chen Ang also felt it was suspicious, but he didn't care.

Just as he was turning to leave, a cold voice suddenly came from behind.

"You are Chen Ang."

Chen Ang stopped and turned around helplessly.

"I am."

"Do you have something to say?"

He asked, knowing the answer. ===== CHAPTER 1306 =====
