Chapter 249: Drumbeats Kill

~7 min read 1,250 words

Liu Erwa was taken away by the traffic police and is under investigation.

After being held for an afternoon and a night.

On the morning of the 17th, Liu Erwa was brought to the interrogation room for questioning.

"Liu Er, how many traffic accidents have you had?"

In the interrogation room, the traffic officer in charge of questioning stared at Liu Erwa and asked.

Liu Erwa shook his head: "I only remember many times, but none were serious accidents; bumps and scrapes while driving are inevitable!"

"Then what happened this time? Do you know you killed people this time? Three lives!"

Liu Erwa looked innocent: "I didn't want to either! The truck was carrying such a heavy load, it was a green light, and I wasn't speeding—just sixty miles per hour—who knew a car would run the red light..."

He answered without leaving any loophole.

Actually, the traffic police had already investigated before questioning Liu Erwa.

Liu Erwa is usually considered an unemployed drifter.

On the day of the incident, he accepted a commission from a transport company to haul a load of scrap steel.

The truck's load capacity is 10 tons; Liu Erwa carried 9.9 tons, not overloaded.

The speed limit on the road at that time was sixty kilometers per hour.

Before passing the intersection, Liu Erwa maintained a speed of 59.9 kilometers per hour.

While passing the intersection, there was a noticeable deceleration.

But the speed was still above fifty kilometers per hour.

By comparing the traffic light timing with the truck's onboard recorder, it can be found that Liu Erwa indeed did not run the red light at that time.

And the black sedan that was smashed into scrap metal had no onboard recorder…… Shen Yu's vehicles usually are not equipped with recorders.

"Why didn't you brake when the collision happened?"

This is the only problematic point regarding Liu Erwa.

Liu Erwa replied with a bitter face: "I was nervous, I didn't react in time."

After a round of questioning, Liu Erwa signed the transcript.

In this traffic accident, Liu Erwa bears ten percent of the responsibility.

He bears no criminal liability; he only needs to compensate part of the victims' economic losses.

Meanwhile, Shen Yu's side bears ninety percent of the responsibility.

This is actually out of consideration for Shen Yu's family that it was judged this way.

After Liu Erwa signed, he was released.

As for compensation, whether it's hundreds of thousands or millions, he doesn't have to pay.

The one paying is Lin Feng.

When Liu Erwa walked out of the traffic police compound's gate, an old man with white-spotted hair, wearing a floral cotton jacket, dressed like an old-society landlord, blocked him with the cane in his hand.

"Old man, what do you want?"

Liu Erwa frowned at the old man and said.

The old man was followed by six bodyguards and a person with a high nose bridge and blue eyes, resembling a butler.

The old man is precisely Shen Yu's father, Shen Chongxi.

Shen Chongxi's age is actually not great; he is under sixty.

However, due to illness and medication, his appearance looks old.

Moreover, from grieving excessively over the loss of his son, his face became even more haggard and aged.

"You guys planned this, right?"

Shen Chongxi stared at Liu Erwa's eyes and said in a deep voice.

Liu Erwa frowned: "What are you talking about? I don't understand."

Shen Chongxi stepped forward a few paces, leaned close to Liu Erwa and said: "I know this traffic accident was planned by you guys; you're just a small lackey. Tell me who did it, and I'll give you ten million... dollars! If you don't tell me, I guarantee you won't live past three days!"

Tell me who did it, and I'll give you ten million... dollars! If you don't tell me, I guarantee you won't live past three days!

Liu Erwa showed no fear, smiling: "Old man, you're funny—who would deliberately drive and hit people for no reason? That's just asking for death. Let me tell you, drivers like us of big trucks actually fear accidents the most..."

Let me tell you, drivers of big trucks like us are actually most afraid of accidents...

Liu Erwa, based on his experience, told Shen Chongxi how dangerous driving a big truck is.

Just then……

"Boom! Boom boom! Boom!..."

A dragon dance troupe passed by.

The drummer walked ahead, beating the large drum hung before him, making a boom boom sound.

Behind followed the dragon dance troupe.

Shen Chongxi heard the drumming and felt a pang of pain in his chest.

"Boom! Boom boom! Boom boom boom!"

"Boom boom! Boom!"

"Boom!"

After the loudest drumbeat, Shen Chongxi shouted and collapsed to the ground.

The butler hurriedly lifted Shen Chongxi and put him in the car……

The dragon dance troupe continued onward, slowly walking down a street.

Lin Feng took down the drum hanging on his person and handed it to the real drummer.

Then he took off his clothes.

Thanks! You let me get my fix!

Lin Feng finished speaking with a smile, waving his hand to the dragon dance troupe.

A white Land Rover stopped at the side of the road...

This is Zhao Xiaoyang's car, and the driver is Duan Fei.

Sitting in the passenger seat is Liu Erwa, who just got in.

Lin Feng opened the car door and sat in the back seat.

After Duan Fei started the car, Lin Feng patted Liu Erwa's shoulder and said, "Well done!"

Liu Erwa smiled plainly, "Just my duty, just my duty!"

Duan Fei asked curiously, "Brother Lin, what about that old man?"

He saw with his own eyes Shen Zhongxi clutch his chest and collapse to the ground in pain.

Lin Feng said lightly, "That old man's heart is weak; I control his heartbeat with sound! When you were dancing in the club, didn't you sometimes feel your heart 'thump‑thump' beating straight?"

Duan Fei nodded.

Lin Feng smiled and said nothing more.

Killing with drum beats!

Duan Fei was horrified inside.

He actually didn't know that an ordinary person couldn't do what Lin Feng does.

First, Lin Feng needs to know Shen Zhongxi's heartbeat rate.

Then, using rhythmic drum sounds, he synchronizes or opposes Shen Zhongxi's heartbeat rate...

Anyway, this is an extremely complex process.

It involves principles of resonance, physiology, psychology, medicine, and so on.

If Shen Zhongxi's heart weren't already heavily burdened, even a stronger Lin Feng couldn't manage it.

But anyway, it was finally accomplished.

On the way to the hospital, Shen Zhongxi was already dead.

The Shen family's structure is extremely unique.

The Shen father and son hold the family's power like the main trunk of a tree, spanning the entire Shen family.

The rest of the Shen members are Shen Zhongxi's cousins and their descendants, like branches attached to the main trunk.

Once the father and son die, the main trunk disappears, and the massive estate will fall apart.

Fighting over inheritance rights, property...

Lin Feng thought for a moment and decided to let Tang Mi handle the acquisition of the Shen family's assets.

Tang Mi comes from the Tang Family and should be more adept at dealing with a clan like the Shen Family.

Having Secretary Tang constantly handling rent collection is also a waste of talent.

Before going to Mi Guo at the end of the month, give her a bit of aura.

Don't, after returning home, introduce her as a landlord!
