Chapter 415: Clearing Snow at the Door?! Now, Immediately, Right Away!
"If I succeed, I will have Shadow Hall kill me and forge a murder scene."
"For the people of Jinshan City, and for your future, I can only resort to this plan."
"After it succeeds, I will smooth all roads for you, ensuring you a lifetime without worries."
"My son, do not blame your father for being ruthless."
"The Six Paths Association is now entrusted to you; please protect everyone."
"At the same time… also protect yourself."
"Signature — Su Kang."
"Su Yang quickly finished reading the Letter, then used Oil Lamp Fire to burn it."
"During the time it turned from a whole sheet of paper into ash, Su Yang's mood remained unsettled for a long while."
"He never expected that Su Kang was such a Crazy person."
"Harboring great righteousness, he has long been dissatisfied with Warlord rule."
"From the Letter's content, whether the so‑called Gold Mine being under one's Foot, the 'accidental' rumor, is true remains to be investigated."
"It may be that Su Kang deliberately fabricated the news to deceive the Warlord Leader into appearing."
"And the latter, for certain reasons, chose to go alone, giving Su Kang an opening."
"It could also be factual; he has guarded this 'heaven‑big' secret for so long, yet managed to resist temptation and not start digging it himself."
"Nevertheless, Su Kang's move completely exceeded his imagination."
"A mid‑size Gang leader actually has the ability to single‑kill the lofty ruler."
"If this were spread, surely no one would believe it."
"This also proves—that the corpse hidden in Jiang Hen's house is real."
"As a result, new questions arise…"
"Who placed the corpse inside?"
"One who operates low‑key year after year in Nancheng District District, with little fame."
"The other holds high rank and power, with countless wealth."
"The two almost never intersect."
"Therefore, the probability that Su Kang voluntarily hid the corpse in Jiang Hen's house is minuscule."
"'Disguising as a failed robbery murder scene…' Su Yang recalled the information obtained when first entering the game."
"Not a single member of the entire Gang knows Su Kang's true cause of death."
"All believe he was killed by a rival; Feng Jingchu spares no effort to seek Luoshi from the murder scene."
"Zi Huai also deployed all troops to search for suspicious personnel within Nancheng District District."
"With their abilities, it is impossible that they have achieved nothing for so long."
"Now Su Yang learns the truth and finally lets go."
"Shadow Hall acted without a trace; how could this group of well‑trained assassins err within Su Kang's scheme?"
"'Enter Game With Body, kill and suicide, what a ruthless method!' Su Yang felt a surge of admiration."
"He thought he was already ruthless enough, having recently let Feng Jingchu voluntarily point a gun at his own chest."
"But Su Kang was even more extreme; to protect the Gold Mine secret, himself, and everyone in the Six Paths Association."
"He spares no sacrifice."
"In doing so, he cut off all subsequent possibilities of exposure."
"'But…' Su Yang furrowed his Brow, 'Why didn't Su Kang leave the Gold Mine's coordinates on the Letter?'"
"He just examined it thoroughly, yet found no related hint."
"If Su Kang intends to let this secret rot in the soil, why explain it at all?"
"He could have fabricated a story from nothing to cover up the Gold Mine."
"This is where Su Yang is confused."
"At that moment, Fire extinguished, and the Letter turned completely to ash."
"Senior Master sighed, 'Su Kang bore everything, yet no one in the entire Gang knows.'"
"'Did you read the Letter?' Su Yang asked."
"'No, this is his last words to you; I cannot read it.' Senior Master shook his head."
"'My father… did he tell you anything else?' Su Yang asked again."
"'He asked me to teach you properly how to become a qualified leader, that's all.' Senior Master said."
"Su Yang felt he was withholding something, but did not press further."
"'I originally intended to give you the Letter later, but these past days seeing your performance, I know you are not far from being qualified.' Senior Master's eyes were filled with appreciation."
"Su Yang stared at his Foot, remaining silent."
"His Brain now filled with doubts; he had thought everything was under control."
"But now it seems he has only touched the tip of the Death Game iceberg."
"This involves far too much, not something that can be sorted out in a single day."
"'Where is the Hall Master of Shadow Hall? Have him find a time to meet me.' Su Yang said."
"'I will have him go to Zhuangyuan tomorrow.' Senior Master nodded."
"'It's getting late; I'll escort Senior Master back.' Su Yang raised his hand to help."
"But Senior Master shook his head, 'I am old and cannot endure wind‑cold; these old legs can only stay in warm places, you go back first.'"
"Su Yang looked around, curiously asking, 'Do you plan to stay here all winter?'"
"'The Shadow Hall brothers live here; why can't I?' Senior Master laughed and retorted."
Su Yang, hearing that, no longer persisted, drank the already cooled tea in one gulp, waved his hand and said, "I'm leaving."
Senior Master watched his departing back, his murky eyes flashing with a hint of light,
"He has grown up; you truly should let go…"
……
After leaving the bookstore, Su Yang arrived at the Warehouse storing the Treasure, and found that even at midnight, the defenses remained dense.
Almost half of Weiwu Hall's brothers were guarding here, and even Zhao Xian stayed within a step.
"Leader!"
"Lin Yang?"
"He hasn't closed his eyes for two days and two nights; he's gone back."
"Arrange a vehicle to take me back."
"Alright!"
While waiting for the car, Su Yang stared at his Foot, deep in thought.
If the answer was actually already hidden in the letter, does that mean the Six Directions Society itself is the key?
Su Kang, worrying about the citizens of Jinshan City and keeping the Warlord from learning this secret, must be trying to protect this root!
"Root and the common folk…"
In his contemplation, a burst of car rumbling shattered his thoughts.
Zhao Xian stuck his head out from the driver's seat, "Leader, I'll take you back."
Su Yang sat in the back seat, still pondering the connection.
At that moment, Zhao Xian suddenly spoke, "I heard Lin Yang say the Leader wants to recruit people?"
"Yes, there are many places needing people now," Su Yang nodded.
"I've long wanted to expand; now we're truly short of manpower. The Warehouse needs people, the Black Market needs people, even shoveling snow has to be done ourselves," Zhao Xian said excitedly.
With those words, Su Yang suddenly recalled the scene of two hall members shoveling snow when he first arrived at the Warehouse, and an idea sparked.
"Quick, floor it!" Su Yang urged anxiously.
"What's wrong?" Zhao Xian, never having seen Su Yang with such an expression, was instantly puzzled.
"Don't ask so many questions, Fire‑fast send me back to the Zhuangyuan!"
"Alright."
A few minutes later, Su Yang got out of the car and rushed straight to the first‑floor living room.
He looked at the red carpet beneath his foot, and an impulse instantly sprouted in his heart!
When he first entered the Zhuangyuan, he found it odd—why lay such a long carpet inside the house for no reason?
Moreover, when he offered incense to Su Kang, it also felt off.
"Leader, run slower; your body is fragile!" Zhao Xian chased after him, a look of startled doubt appearing in his eyes.
He was shocked that Su Yang, despite severe injuries, could still run like a flying person.
How could a fully healthy, uninjured person like himself fail to catch up?
"Lift it!" Su Yang blurted.
"What?"
"Lift the carpet."
Su Yang, breathing rapidly, "Now, immediately…"
"Immediately!"
