Chapter 697: Finding the Truth
"It's her, it's her! If she hadn't brought me to play with that thing, I wouldn't have died. It's her..." The hoarse roar transmitted into everyone's hearts, and everyone's heart trembled slightly. This voice contained endless Resentment, striking directly at the human heart.
"I said, I will find out the truth." Chen Yu shouted, "If you dare to stir up trouble again, I will take you down right now."
Following Chen Yu's roar, with Lichen in hand, an extremely strong blade aura arrived, and the gust of wind in the room vanished without a trace.
The doors and windows stopped shaking, but the items in the room had been blown into a mess. Zhang Yan huddled to one side, trembling, not daring to move at all.
"Mr. Chen, what should we do next? Yanyan did make a mistake, but... the crime doesn't warrant death." Zhang Zheng pleaded, "I beg you to help her; I will take her to surrender."
"Mr. Zhang, don't be anxious. Let me investigate this matter first." Chen Yu frowned, "The situation is a bit suspicious. This Resentment seems to be controlled by someone, specifically targeting Zhang Yan, but that girl truly died in an accident."
"Besides, that photographer also has issues. I will find that kid first and ask clearly what is going on before deciding." Chen Yu said.
"Alright, sorry to trouble you, Mr. Chen." The couple said to Chen Yu gratefully.
Zhang Lao glared fiercely at Zhang Yan, then angrily threw the cane in his hand to the side and sat down, feeling somewhat dejected and powerless.
"Yanyan, you are a girl, and I don't have many demands of you." Zhang Lao sighed and said, "But people of the Zhang Family can be without money, without culture, and without power or influence, but they cannot be without kindness."
"Grandpa, I know, I was wrong." Zhang Yan began to cry.
"You were wrong? You know you were wrong now?" Zhang Lao said angrily, "The incident happened several days ago. For these past few days, you acted as if nothing happened. If this incident hadn't occurred, you would still act as if nothing had happened. Is this what you call knowing you were wrong?"
"I... I was also very scared. I really know I was wrong." Zhang Yan sobbed.
"You had better pray that this matter can be resolved, otherwise, I will personally send you to Prison." Zhang Lao said angrily.
Zhang Yan nodded while crying; she huddled in the corner, not daring to move at all.
"There is no time to lose. Zhang Peng, come with me for a trip. Let's find Rabbit first; this kid has issues." Chen Yu said.
"Alright, let's find Rabbit first." Zhang Peng nodded. He picked up his phone and made a few calls.
The Zhang Family's influence in Shengjing is quite good. With one call from Zhang Peng, someone found the local thug of the Urban Village. The local thug is called Heige. He brought a few people to accompany Chen Yu and Zhang Peng to look for Rabbit in the chaotic Urban Village.
"Young Master Peng, that kid you are looking for used to hang around this area, stealing things and staging accidents for compensation—he did it all. There are many outsiders in this Urban Village, so he only dared to bully outsiders. But later, he got to know your sister, so he stopped hanging around this area. However, for some reason, he has run back here now."
Lao Hei said while walking, explaining Rabbit's situation.
"Did he say what the reason was?" Chen Yu asked.
"No. And after coming back this time, he has been very abnormal, hiding from everyone and refusing to meet." Lao Hei said, "I don't know what his situation is either."
While they were talking, the group had already arrived at a residential complex. The buildings in this complex were quite old and appeared somewhat dilapidated. Most of the people living here were migrant workers, so the population was large and quite mixed.
In front of a garage, Lao Hei stopped. He pointed at the garage and said, "This is where he lives."
"Open the door and call him." Zhang Peng's expression was gloomy.
"Rabbit, it's Heige. Come out for a moment; I have something to ask you." Lao Hei walked up and knocked on the door.
After knocking for a long time, there was no response. Lao Hei looked back at Zhang Peng with some confusion: "Could it be that he isn't home?"
"Kick the door." Zhang Peng waved his hand. The bodyguards behind him stepped forward. One of the bodyguards took a few steps back, then rushed forward and kicked the door.
With a crash, the door was kicked open by the bodyguard. The moment the door was kicked open, a thin, weak man rushed out from inside. The bodyguard was caught off guard and was pushed back a few steps, while the man scrambled up and tried to flee.
Chen Yu was quick-eyed and fast-handed; he flew a kick out, hitting the man and forcing him back into the room.
"Guard the outside." Zhang Peng's face looked ugly. He instructed the bodyguards and then stepped into the room.
Lao Hei waved his hand, and his two underlings stepped forward to pin the man down, twisting him and bringing him before Zhang Peng.
This man is none other than Rabbit. Seeing Zhang Peng, a look of panic appeared on his face. He struggled desperately, but was held firmly by Lao Hei's two underlings.
"Are you Rabbit?" Zhang Peng stared at the man.
"Who are you? What are you doing?" A look of terror appeared on the man's face.
"You are the photographer from my sister's studio. Don't tell me you don't know me." Zhang Peng took out a photo and threw it in front of Rabbit. The person in the photo was Tongtong. He shouted, "Do you recognize this girl?"
"I don't recognize her. I don't know what you are talking about. Let me go, or I will call the police." A flash of panic crossed Rabbit's eyes, but he calmed down immediately.
He was masking the panic in his heart, but because he was guilty, Chen Yu saw through it at a glance.
"This kid has a guilty conscience." Chen Yu looked around and suddenly saw an incense table in the room. On the incense table was placed a statue of a deity. This deity had three heads and three arms, and also three eyes. It was clearly the Three-Eyed Evil God worshipped by practitioners of crooked paths abroad.
Chen Yu was startled. He grabbed Rabbit's hand and tore off his sleeve. He saw that his arms were densely covered with special symbols drawn in Cinnabar. Both of his arms had these blood-colored symbols.
Chen Yu tore open his clothes and saw that Rabbit's chest and back were also covered in these symbols.
"What is this?" Zhang Peng and Lao Hei couldn't help but gasp. Because these symbols were extremely eerie, densely drawn on a person's body, it gave people a scalp-tingling feeling.
"This kid worships the Three-Eyed Evil God. This is a type of Curse. The symbols on his body are to keep him from being invaded by evil Spirits, while simultaneously diverting the disaster onto others." Chen Yu said in a deep voice, "That girl's death has something to do with him."
"Speak! How did Tongtong die? What exactly is this thing you are worshipping?" Zhang Peng was furious. He grabbed Rabbit by the throat and shouted.
"I didn't! I don't know what you are talking about! Help! Someone help!" Rabbit roared at the top of his lungs.
