Protagonist:

Su Mo

Su Mo nodded slightly, opened the prepared documents, and read aloud, "November 5, 2011, Stanley Prison criminal suspect Feng Yu Xiu visited Xiahou Wu. January 10 of the following year, visited again... According to police visitation records from 2011 to the present, you met Feng Yu Xiu a total of five times within this year. The last visit was half a month before the incident."

"......"

Su Mo put down the file folder in his hand and asked, "Xiahou Wu, do you have anything to say?"

"Officer, what is there to explain?"

Xiahou Wu spread his hands and said, "I didn't know that guy would be a criminal suspect. At the time I only thought he was a kung fu enthusiast. I never expected him to do something like this."

At a time like this, he naturally could not admit his connection with Feng Yu Xiu.

"Are you sure?" Su Mo looked at Xiahou Wu.

"That's right."

Xiahou Wu nodded with a serious expression.

"Officer, you wouldn't just suspect me out of nowhere because I've met him a few times, would you?"

Xiahou Wu appeared calm on the surface, but his true inner feeling was panicked out of his mind.

He never expected the Hong Kong Police to be so efficient; in less than two days from the incident to now, they had already successfully arrested Feng Yu Xiu and closed the case.

Logically speaking, with Feng Yu Xiu's influence, it was impossible for him to be caught by the police so early.

And besides that, there was something even more troublesome.

Because he had contact with Feng Yu Xiu, plus his previous behavior, these police had already begun to suspect him.

"Heh..."

Ling Tian smiled meaningfully.

It seemed this Mr. Xiahou Wu truly would not shed tears until he saw the coffin.

"Sir?"

"Take it out."

Seeing Lu Xuanxin nod, Su Mo immediately withdrew that letter from the file folder and waved it in front of Xiahou Wu, "Since that's the case... then how do you plan to explain this letter?"

Thud!

The chair fell directly to the ground.

Xiahou Wu's pupils shrank sharply, and he immediately jumped up from the chair.

How is this possible!

Where exactly did the leak come from?!

"Sit down, who told you to stand up!" At this moment, the Prison Guard standing behind noticed Xiahou Wu's movement, left holding a baton and spoke warningly.

"......"

Although Xiahou Wu did not say much, his sharp gaze swept toward the Prison Guard at this moment.

"You!"

The Prison Guard's heart jolted.

Frightened by Xiahou Wu's gaze just now, he even retreated several steps uncontrollably.

Realizing this, the Prison Guard was somewhat annoyed. Just as he was about to say something, Su Mo stood up and blocked in front of Xiahou Wu, waving his hand at the Prison Guard behind.

"Rest assured, there will be no problem."

Su Mo smiled and greeted, indicating that this place could be left to him with peace of mind.

At the same time, he helped up the stool that Xiahou Wu had knocked over due to emotional agitation just now.

Seeing this, the Prison Guard did not say anything else and retreated to the door of the interrogation room.

Su Mo sat back down beside Lu Xuanxin, smiled faintly, and tapped the envelope on the table with his fingertip. "Xiahou Wu, it's your turn. Do you have any more explanations? You can continue as before, but Officer Lu and I have no patience to continue with you. This is your last opportunity to explain."

"Hah..."

After a long silence, Xiahou Wu finally sat powerlessly in the chair.

After he learned that Feng Yu Xiu had been arrested by the police, he had actually already realized that things were developing wrongly.

But he still held a glimmer of hope.

Feeling that the police might not necessarily focus their attention on him.

Even if the two of them had met, it could not be certain that he was also related to the case.

He no longer held any hope for early release and sentence reduction. Now, as long as he could maintain his original sentence and not add years to himself, it was already a blessing...

But now it was mercilessly shattered.

When Su Mo took out that letter, he knew he was completely finished this time...

That letter was the last straw that broke the camel's back.

Now all the evidence was laid out before him, and he no longer had any need to struggle.

"Officers, if you have any questions, just ask."

"First question: did you have any dealings with the suspect?"

"Yes."

"How did you meet?"

"He came to the prison to find me on his own initiative."

"The reason? Why did he come to the prison specifically to find you?"

"He said he admired me, wanted to walk the path I walked, to defeat all the masters I once defeated, and then challenge me, defeat me — the former Wulin First Person — and become the current Wulin World's First Person."

Lu Xuanxin frowned slightly and asked, "Then what does this have to do with him killing people?"

"I'm currently locked in prison; he has no way to challenge me. So he wants to get me out of prison, so I can face his challenge."

Lu Xuanxin slammed the table and demanded, "So you colluded with him and plotted all this just to carry out the plan to get you out of prison?"

"No."

Unexpectedly, at this moment, Xiahou Wu shook his head.

"At the time I only knew his name was Feng Yu Xiu, knew he wanted me to get out of prison, but did not know what his specific plan was."

"Xiahou Wu, at a time like this, you're still trying to quibble?"

"What I've done is done, what I haven't done is not done. A martial artist values integrity above all; Officer Lu, please don't question my character."

"You!!"

Lu Xuanxin looked at Xiahou Wu with anger.

"Officer Lu, let me handle this."

Su Mo calmed Lu Xuanxin's emotions, then turned to look at Xiahou Wu.

"Let's continue. Since you yourself didn't know Feng Yu Xiu's plan, then why did you seek out Officer Lu at the very first moment the case broke? And since you didn't know the plan, how were you able to know the killer's murder sequence with such certainty?"

"Because of this letter."

Xiahou Wu pointed at the envelope on the table, "The day before the incident, Feng Yu Xiu specially sent me a letter, writing on it for me to pay close attention to tomorrow's morning news, so that's how I learned of Mai Rong'en's death, and thus notified Officer Lu Xuanxin."

"As for the murder sequence……"

Xiahou Wu fell silent for a moment, then continued, "It's connected to the challenge path I walked back then. The two people he's killed so far were actually the Wulin masters I challenged back then. Since he said he wants to walk my path, that means he'll follow my challenge sequence from back then, so I could be certain who he would challenge each time."

"In that case……" Su Mo stopped the meeting record, looked at Xiahou Wu, and asked, "Then when we first met, why didn't you tell us these clues?"

"Because, I had selfish motives."

After a moment of silence, Xiahou Wu lowered his head.
