I Became an Anonymous Boss

The girl woke up from the phantom of fear, she nodded with difficulty, tried her best to stabilize her mind, and then ran to the door.

The window was open, and the night wind at this time was a bit piercingly cold. The change in wind pressure caused the candles in the window to shake, reflecting the distorted and messy figures in the bathtub. The light and shadow are blurred, as if covered with a mask that flickers on and off, and the voices of people outside the door also become intermittent in the wind, like the whispers of ghosts and ghosts, which makes people shudder.

Shirataki walked around the screen and looked at the bathtub, there was a person lying in the relatively spacious bathtub.

Lu Xiaotang lay naked in the bathtub, the water vapor rose up, and the water in the bucket had been dyed bright red long ago, leaving a vivid bloodstain on his neck, the blood was gushing out, the boy looked at the ceiling, It was like being in a daze, without breathing or heartbeat.

Disciple of Longhu Mountain, No. 20 on the list... just died.

In all fairness, it was not a surprise, Lu Xiaotang was injured, he couldn't hold his breath, he didn't even have the ability to resist, so he was the best target.

Shirataki looked towards the window, the murderer came in through the window, he did not hide it at all, this is not even a secret room.

The murderer sneaked in, murdered and left in front of the disciples of the inner sect, he was already insane.

Bai Taki stepped out of the screen, looked at the person rushing outside, and said calmly, "Lu Xiaotang was killed."

Everyone has their own expressions, either silent, angry, fearful, or silent.

Shirataki calmly said: "He was killed in person, the murderer just disappeared, I need to check everyone's alibi."

An inner disciple replied: "We just checked. After hearing the screams, we all entered the house one after another."

Shirataki had a bad premonition: "Then?"

"They're all here." The inner disciple said softly, "Everyone...all of them are here."

Chapter 260 Four You Can Cheat

The night passed.

Many people tossed and turned on the bed, or just sat on the chair all night.

The impact of Lu Xiaotang's death was too strong, casting a shadow over everyone's heart.

What happened before can only be regarded as an internal dispute in Tianxiang Pavilion, but now with the death of Longhushan Zhenchuan, it has developed into another kind of incident.

This is not nonsense, but it will really kill people!

Among the guests, there are also old people who are old or not talented.

What they feel is the fear that they will be the next target.

Under the protection of many inner disciples, the murderer was still allowed to kill and leave.

If the previous house arrest in Tianxiang Pavilion was just rude, then the continued insistence on keeping people has completely offended these people.

They accused the girls of Tianxiang Mansions one after another—what is the ultimate intention of putting them in a life and death situation?

Shirataki looked at the white belly in the sky, and sighed quietly.

He rested for about two hours, barely guaranteeing that he did not overdo his cultivation.

The murderer wouldn't kill two people in a row overnight, so he slept soundly.

It's just that in the dream, I can't stop analyzing the case.

Moreover, the quarrels and accusations outside the house never stopped.

He really did not expect that the murderer would choose to kill in front of the public.

This is a dangerous move, because if the assassination fails and the arrest results, all previous efforts will be wasted.

But it happened to let him succeed.

This wave of forcefully killed Lu Xiaotang.

First, it destroyed the psychological defense of the guests, successfully muddied the situation, and used the guests to put pressure on Tianxiang Pavilion.

Secondly, the attention was successfully diverted. The murderer's intentional appearance and the use of the alibi of the guests showed that the person who assassinated the guests was an insider rather than an outsider. It will lead to differences of opinion and camp splits within the sect.

Thirdly, the retreat space of Tianxiang Pavilion is further compressed, which will make them have nowhere to retreat, and the time that was originally enough will immediately become stretched, and the worst situation will be absolute conflict and confrontation.

We all know that no organization wants to negotiate with a horrific lunatic.

It is impossible for Tianxiang Pavilion to give up the spirit sword, even if it will offend all the guests and the forces behind them.

But even so, even if the spirit sword is finally guarded, its sect power will be invisible and greatly weakened.

Once the support of various forces is lost, how will the business of this sect continue?

If the idol economy develops and has a huge mass base, it is not a problem, because I have made the cake bigger, and I am not afraid that others will not follow suit, but the problem is that it has not had time to develop.

"It's really a word... It's really the autumn of life and death." Bai Taki said in a low voice. At this time, he felt that he should take out a list of teachers to express his feelings at this moment.

But he also really felt that his IQ was not enough.

When Lu Xiaotang was killed, all the people in the pavilion had alibi.

Many people had already fallen asleep, and they were forced to open the door to check whether they were safe.

This confirmed that no one among the crowd was the murderer, so the murderer could only be hiding among the remaining disciples.

The strength of the outer sect, inner sect, and true disciples of Tianxiang Pavilion is almost in a trapezoidal arrangement. The murderer who can easily cut off the weapon in the hands of the inner disciples should be an innate talent, so the object of suspicion has shifted to other true disciples.

And almost all of these true disciples have alibi.

Either guard the exit from the exterior scene with the other disciples; or guard the mourning hall of the head with the fifth elder.

Although not everyone has a perfect alibi, it is difficult to kill people in this small time period.

Lu Xiaotang died, but there are still mourning halls and coffins.

Shirataki burned a few pieces of yellow paper for him, and felt a little lonely in his heart, so he stood outside the door and blew the cold wind.

Fang Cun went in and burned the paper money, and couldn't stand the atmosphere, so he stood outside the door with a wry smile.

He asked, "How many more people will die?"

Shirataki shook his head: "I don't know."

Fang Cun said, "Maybe you will be next, maybe I will be next."

Shirataki asked, "Why do you think so?"

Fang Cun said, "Isn't it?"

Bai Taki shook his head: "I don't think the murderer will continue to attack. Killing Lu Xiaotang has already caused enough panic. There is no need to continue to take risks... Lu Xiaotang died because he was injured and he was also on the list. It was too easy to kill him And there is no risk, no one expected that anyone would die, it is also an unexpected risky move, but if you want to do something next, I am afraid it will not be so easy."

Fang Cun smiled wryly: "I hope your guess is right."

Shirataki said: "If it wasn't for muddying the situation, I can't think of a reason why He wanted to kill people, and the water is already muddy, so is there any need to continue muddying it? No matter how muddy the water is, it will be muddy."

Fang Cun suddenly said, "Who do you think killed Lu Xiaotang?"

Shirataki paused: "Those who are capable of killing him almost have an alibi."

Fang Cun said in a low voice, "I'm not asking for evidence, but for your intuition."

Bai Taki didn't answer, someone's appearance quietly appeared in his mind, and then he erased it.

"It seems that you really have an idea." Fang Cun said, "That's good."

Shirataki shook his head and said, "No matter how accurate your intuition is, it's just an intuition."

"Yeah..." Fang Cun said, "But it's just an intuition, so what does it matter?"

The disciples of Suyimen folded their arms and looked ahead, but their eyes were out of focus.

"Not everyone cares what the truth is."

"Who stole the spirit sword, who hurt Chu Jingjing, who killed Lu Xiaotang, how many people really care?"

"Jianghu pays attention to happiness, kindness and hatred. Once things are procrastinated, looking forward and backward, and following the rules, this is not the style that Jianghu people should have."

Bai Taki was startled, he glanced at Fang Cun, he didn't expect that this sentence would be spoken by a disciple of the Suyi Sect.

"We are also people who walk in the rivers and lakes, not just doctors." Fang Cun said flatly: "I have also poisoned many people, but according to the rules of the sect, I killed one and saved one."

"What you said makes sense." Bai Taki said, "If I had a choice, I would also like to be kind and happy."

"Then why not?"

"I'm too good." Bai Taki looked at his palm, and said in an inexplicably nostalgic tone: "If I have the heart and courage to drink a sword, and the sword is Frost Fourteen Continents, I still have to Hide it?"

"You don't seem to be such a sharp-edged person." Fang Cun said.

"You're right." Shirataki smiled: "Actually, when I call for a sword, I often stab the knife from the back, which is fast and accurate."

"It's normal. When I poisoned, didn't I also do it in a sneaky way? Who is upright? Is the upright person still from the Jianghu?" Switch sides, I'll show him what cruelty is."

"You should keep your voice down when you say this, so as not to be remembered, and I will kill you next." Bai Taki said, "Everyone knows that when fighting in a group, kill the nanny first."

"If you come to kill me, that's a good thing." Fang Cun said calmly: "It won't make me feel so bad that I can't be saved when I see someone dead." He turned his head and said: "Brother Bai, if something happens to me... ..."

"I'll find a few old brothers from the Maoshan faction, and I'll arrange for you to carry the coffin of the nine corpses, and carry them back to Suyimen." Bai Taki agreed, "I'll take care of the scenery you left. I can find a ghost marriage partner."

"That's a good relationship... No, that's not what I want to talk about." Fang Cun took the matter of life and death relatively lightly, and said in a relaxed tone: "What I want to say is that if something happens to me, I will be killed." Yes, you must remember one thing."

"what?"

"Check my body carefully." Fang Cun said: "Even if I die, there will be enough clues left. Su Yi's family is a master of both medicine and poison. If anyone wants to kill me, don't come with the consciousness of losing half his life. You underestimated me too much."

"This may also be the reason why you are alive." Bai Taki smiled: "I know you are not easy to mess with."

"So, you have to be more careful." Fang Cun touched his pocket: "You want me to give you something nice?"

"Let's talk about it next time, it's not necessary this time." Shirataki shook his head, "I'll go for a walk around."

He regained his calm posture, calmed down the restlessness in his heart, and even walked briskly.

After talking with Fang Cun, he figured out some things, some very simple things.

It's like walking into a dead end, slashing through it with a sword, only to find that it's a hidden door.

Leaving the mourning hall, Shirataki passed through the crowd and went straight to a secluded place.

The refreshing wind blows on the cheeks, and the sunlight casts dappled light and shadow through the gaps in the leaves.

The young man squinted his eyes, looked at the swaying tree shadow, and suddenly smiled, very easily.

"It turns out you can cheat," he said.
