Chapter 144: Managing Killing and Burial

~8 min read 1,550 words

What Wu An wanted to do, the effect he wanted to achieve, has already been completed as expected.

Next, there's nothing left to pretend.

So…

Cards on the table.

At this moment.

A Qing sent a message saying Guang Liangjun had already arrived at the village entrance with people; as a passing villager, he kindly told Guang Liangjun, after his inquiry, that Lin Hu was at the Village Committee.

Furious Guang Liangjun no longer cares where Lin Hu is; even if Lin Hu hid in the Lingxiao Treasure Hall, he would still cause havoc in Heaven today!

His plans were ruined, not to mention; now the fishing boat's engine is broken, the boat has no buyer, and Lao Tan's debt collection is urgent.

He now has the heart to kill Lin Hu.

…

Village Committee Office.

Chen Gui watched Wu An fold and put away the guarantee, asking: "What do you mean by what you said?"

Wu An stepped half a step toward Wu Yingwei and said: "It's like this; originally that fishing boat was mine, but Guang Liangjun changed his mind midway and refused to sell."

"And just tonight, Lin Hu stuffed white sugar into the fishing boat's engine."

"Actually, the video in my hand was given to me by Guang Liangjun."

Lin Hu, hearing this, felt a boom and his head exploded.

He was dazed.

Wu Yingwei's mouth twitched; he thought, you little brat, having tricked someone, how could you say it to their face? That's not just deceiving them as a fool, it's also scolding them as an idiot.

High lethality, strong insult.

The information was too much; others suddenly couldn't react. Chen Gui's mind worked fast, and he quickly questioned: "Since the victim isn't you, why did you deceive Lin Hu?"

Wu An said innocently: "Uncle Gui, saying I deceived him isn't appropriate."

"He's jealous of me, so he stuffed white sugar into the engine, right?"

"Although I narrowly escaped by a fluke, he did intend to harm me, right?"

"So what's wrong with making him apologize and write a guarantee for this?"

Everyone nodded along.

What Wu An said still made sense.

Chen Gui shouted: "You're just making excuses; you're really scheming against Lin Hu, not trying to keep the peace—you want to use us to blow things up!"

Wu An sighed: "Uncle Gui, how can you think that of me?"

"I'm also helpless."

"Guang Liangjun suspects I ordered Lin Hu to do this; only then can I clear my name and prove I'm innocent."

"You……" Chen Gui couldn't speak; Wu An's words were too flawless, leaving no fault to find.

But everyone's not stupid; Wu An's stunt definitely isn't that simple.

Lin Hu apologized, confessed everything, sought forgiveness; if Wu An were the victim, it would be a big thing made small, a small thing made smaller—but now the victim is someone else, so Lin Hu's confession and written guarantee are ironclad evidence!

Handing this guarantee to the police, Lin Hu would be equivalent to being forced to turn himself in.

Wu An is trying to kill Lin Hu!

Lin Hu let out an "alas" and lunged at Wu An: "Wu An, Ganlin Mu, you actually played me—I'll kill you!"

He had just moved when several people stopped him.

Wu Yingwei also looked over coldly, meanwhile stepping aside to block Wu An behind him.

Wu An noticed, feeling warm inside.

Father actively protected him.

Compared to before, when Father kicked him out of the house, this progress is not just a little.

Soon, Lin Hu was subdued.

Coming to the Village Committee was Wu An's careful consideration; in this place, Lin Hu can't run wild.

Old Village Chief Shen struck his cane hard: "Lin Hu, you still have the nerve to hit people; if it weren't for your wicked deed, could Wu An have schemed against you?"

Lin Hu panted: "He…… he……"

He didn't know what to shout to vent his inner grief; he felt Wu An was too bullying.

Old Village Chief Shen looked at Wu An and sighed: "A An, what exactly do you want?"

Wu An shook his head, shook the guarantee in his hand, and said: "Old Village Chief, I've already gotten what I wanted."

Chen Gui interjected: "Village Chief, don't listen to this brat's excuses."

"He clearly has many ways to deal with Lin Hu, yet he insists on bringing Lin Hu to the Village Committee to pull this stunt."

"It's clearly to use us."

"This brat harbors ill intentions, his thoughts are vicious."

Old Village Chief Shen looked at Wu Yingwei: "Yingwei, what do you think of this?"

Wu Yingwei pondered, then said: "I think A An didn't do anything wrong."

Everyone nodded.

Yes.

The one who made the mistake is Lin Hu.

No matter what Wu An intended by doing this, there's a cause behind it.

Lin Hu shouted: "Give me the guarantee!"

Wu An snorted: "You're just dreaming."

Lin Hu struggled to get up: "Wu An, you're doing this to me, we're not done!"

Wu An snorted, as if saying that otherwise they'd be fine, not realizing they still thought Lin Hu was the victim; actually, this uproar was started by him.

He looked toward Old Village Chief Shen.

In the Village Committee, Lin Hu was so arrogant, he hit Old Village Chief Shen's face.

Old Village Chief Shen tapped his cane and scolded: "Lin Hu, I don't even blame Wu An for scheming against you; you brat simply have no sincere remorse."

Chen Gui interjected: "Old Village Chief, I don't see it that way."

"If Wu An didn't mess with Lin Hu, they could surely turn swords into jade and silk."

"Now it's come to this, Wu An bears responsibility."

Wu An felt an itch in his hands.

Chen Gui, this old bastard, has no other talent, but his mouth is something else—his words make you want to rip it off.

Everyone remained silent.

Wu Yingwei gave two cold snorts, showing no respect.

Even if Wu An doesn't mess with Lin Hu this time, could they really become friends?

Impossible.

Lin Hu can do something like this—it means they've forged a deadly feud.

Don't say that enemies should be reconciled, not feud.

That's because it hasn't happened to them yet.

Wu An stared at Chen Gui, this old bastard talking while standing without back pain, still taking sides; he figured he'd better find a chance to strike back.

Strike first, or suffer later.

You like being a troublemaker?

Fine, then find a chance to let you stir the shit.

At that moment.

A minivan rushed to the open space in front of the Village Committee office building.

The car door opened.

A crowd rushed out, Guang Liangjun jumped out and shouted: "Where is Lin Hu?"

"Lin Hu, get out here!"

"I have no grudge against you, yet you're trying to kill me, right?"

Many villagers heard the news and rushed over.

Lin Hu saw, no longer bothering to cause trouble for Wu An, his arrogant shouting gone, he panicked and cried: "Old Village Chief, Uncle, Uncle, this… this…"

The next moment, Guang Liangjun led his people charging into the Village Committee.

Wu An shouted: "That's Lin Hu."

"Grudges have origins and debts have owners; if you want to fight, drag him out and beat him."

Guang Liangjun recognized Lin Hu and shouted: "Grab him!"

"It's a misunderstanding, I actually wanted to mess with Wu An." Lin Hu shouted his explanation, but Guang Liangjun wouldn't listen to any of his excuses.

Seeing Guang Liangjun still charging with his men, Lin Hu didn't sit and wait for death; he grabbed a chair and threw it, but his two fists couldn't fight four hands, and soon he was seized by Guang Liangjun's men.

Then they dragged him out of the Village Committee office, and a crowd surrounded him and started beating him.

Most villagers just watched the show, while some went up shouting for help—those were all Lin clan relatives. After Guang Liangjun explained the situation, learning that Lin Hu had done something despicable, a few of the Lin clan looked at each other and, borrowing the donkey's descent, didn't intervene further.

This shows what kind of conduct Lin Hu has in the village.

At this point, not a single person stepped forward to help; they were just gawking, loving a big spectacle.

After all, this is the Village Committee; Old Village Chief Shen naturally couldn't just watch, he wanted to stop it, but if it were villagers fighting among themselves, his words would naturally carry weight.

But now, the people Guang Liangjun brought are all from the town, and they don't recognize this old village chief.

In a short time, Lin Hu had been beaten to a swollen, bruised face, covered in blood, wailing miserably.

The village chief anxiously asked: "Have you called the police?"

Everyone looked at each other; things happened too suddenly, they were just watching the show and forgot about that.

One by one, they hurriedly took out their phones.

Wu An said: "No need to busy yourselves, I've called it in; the police are already on the way."

Everyone looked at him, speechless; you kid, you're actually pretty good, service is top-notch.

You've set someone up, handling both the killing and the burial.
