Chapter 71: Ups and Downs

The next morning, I arrived at school and found Zhang Yinuo: "Um, come out with me for a moment!"

Zhang Yinuo looked at me very suspiciously, but still came out with me. We found a place where no one was around, and I said to Zhang Yinuo: "Um, I want to ask you for a favor!"

"What favor? Tell me!"

"Take me to see Zhang Longtao after school this afternoon!"

"Ah, are you crazy? Why do you want to see Zhang Longtao?"

"Nothing, just to ask some things. You just need to take me to find him!"

Zhang Yinuo looked at my determined gaze and nodded: "Fine, but you have to agree to one condition!"

"What condition!"

"I'll go see Zhang Longtao with you, otherwise no!"

"Hmm, okay!"

I didn't tell San Mao about this matter because if there were too many people, Zhang Longtao might be suspicious, and with Zhang Yinuo going with me, there shouldn't be any problems.

At noon, San Mao suddenly found me, his expression panicked. I looked at his appearance and asked suspiciously: "What's wrong? What happened?"

"Bad news, Wang Lin and Wang Li's whole family is dead!" San Mao's expression was panicked, his look filled with worry.

"What, the whole family is dead?" I was also shocked by the news San Mao suddenly gave. I only saw Wang Lin and Wang Li shot yesterday. What did this have to do with their family?

"Yes, I heard they died last night, all died at home. No one knows who killed them, and there was no movement at all!" San Mao said in terror.

Hearing this, my face changed too. This was clearly done by the person who killed Wang Li last night. I didn't expect them to be so ruthless, not even sparing the whole family. These people were simply demons, murderous maniacs.

"It's fine. If they really wanted to kill us, we would have died when Wang Li died yesterday. They wouldn't have left us until now!" I comforted San Mao.

"That's true, but these people are really ruthless. They say disaster doesn't reach the family, but these people are simply perverts. Damn, although they didn't kill us now, who knows when they might suddenly think of killing us!"

"San Mao, why don't you not participate in investigating Xueyan's matter from now on!" I saw San Mao's worry, but I also understood. After all, anyone who encountered this would be afraid.

"Damn, Fourth Brother, are you speaking human words? What did you just call me? San Mao? I'm your Third Brother, would I be afraid of being implicated by you? Do you know what brothers are for?" San Mao exploded when he heard my words, so angry he couldn't stand it.

"Fine, fine, I know, San Mao, I know you're loyal enough!"

Hearing my words, San Mao then said: "That's more like it. Damn, it seems we are still too weak. That shitty master doesn't come anymore either; he should at least be our backing!"

Many people in school already knew the news that Wang Lin's whole family had died, especially Li Hong. After Li Hong knew this news, he came directly to me and glared: "Did you do Wang Lin's matter?"

"What nonsense are you talking about? If I did it, do you think you would still be alive now?" I was truly convinced by Li Hong's intelligence. He didn't even think carefully. If I had this ability, would I still have been pitted so miserably by Li Hong those few times?

Li Hong thought about it and felt it was right, but he still looked at me suspiciously and said: "Even if you didn't do it, I think it has something to do with you!"

"Don't you dare slander me. Slander is also a crime. I advise you to be careful with your words!"

Seeing that he didn't get any answer, Li Hong turned and left. I wasn't surprised that he suspected me because I had specifically looked for Wang Lin once or twice before, plus what happened yesterday, normal people would think it had something to do with me. Because of this matter, San Mao and I were also questioned by the police, but we didn't kill them, so we naturally gave our statements and were released. After all, there was no substantial evidence, and most importantly, Wang Lin and Wang Li were shot to death, and we were just ordinary students, how could we have guns?

When school ended, I followed Zhang Yinuo to her house. It looked like Zhang Yinuo should have greeted Zhang Longtao in advance and confirmed the situation.

I sat on her sofa, feeling a bit uneasy in my heart, mainly because I was afraid of running into Zhang Yinuo's father. Her father's aura was truly very terrifying.

Zhang Yinuo brewed a cup of tea for me and then told me Zhang Longtao would be here in a moment.

Sure enough, not long after, Zhang Longtao returned. Zhang Longtao looked at me, his expression not very good, his face cold as he looked at me: "You have a lot of guts, actually daring to come to my house!"

"This is the Da Hong Pao that Dad treasured, damn, I can't even drink it usually!" Zhang Longtao looked at the tea boiling on the table, his face instantly turning black.

Zhang Yinuo rolled her eyes at Zhang Longtao: "Shut your mouth, drink if you want, if not, forget it!"

Zhang Longtao was so angry his face looked ugly, but there was no way. At home, except for his father, no one could really control Zhang Yinuo.

"Fine, what are you looking for me for? You're not here to die, are you?" Zhang Longtao sneered at me.

"Can you speak? Did I let you come here just to argue?" Zhang Yinuo glared at Zhang Longtao.

"Alright, fine, fine, I won't speak, really, whose family are you on!" Zhang Longtao was very helpless about his sister's unpromising behavior.

"Zhang Longtao, I'll just tell you straight. On the night Su Xueyan died, what exactly did she experience in the bar? How exactly did she die?" I looked at Zhang Longtao with a stern expression.

Hearing my words, Zhang Longtao's whole face changed. He put down the tea in his hand and said: "I advise you not to investigate this matter, it's no good for you!"

"Listening to your words, you know something, right? Tell me about it!" I wanted to see something from Zhang Longtao's face, but after looking for a long time, I didn't find anything.

"Don't think you can know anything from me. I won't tell you, and I've promised others not to leak the news, so give up!"

"Promised others? Who are those people?"

"No comment. If there's nothing else, I think you should go too. You've drunk the Da Hong Pao, get out quickly!"

He wanted to drive me away directly, but how could I be willing? I stood up and glared at him. Zhang Longtao ignored me and left the room directly. Not getting the news I wanted, I was very unwilling, but there was no way. He wasn't willing to say. If there was no breakthrough here with Zhang Longtao, it was equivalent to the clues being broken again. I stood up helplessly, expressed my gratitude to Zhang Yinuo, and left. It seemed I had to think of other ways. ===== CHAPTER 72 =====
