I Became an Anonymous Boss

Su Ruoshui nodded: "Yes."

Shirataki understood: "So you know I'm deliberately seducing you, but you still keep up... Is this also the reason why you want to kill me?"

Su Ruoshui smiled suddenly: "In the end, this is what you're curious about—you want to know why I have to kill you."

There was a hint of meaning in her eyes, as if to say 'you really hold a grudge'.

Bai Taki said indifferently: "Yes, I hold grudges, and if you want to kill me, is it possible that I will send you a wave of heads, and before I die, I will carve 666 on your leg?"

Su Ruoshui lowered her head, as if recalling something: "I killed you, not because I hate you, but because of a simple reason."

Shirataki touched his chin: "Because I'm an outsider?"

Su Ruoshui took a long breath and said after a long time, "Yes."

Shirataki said in a low voice: "So that's how it is...you are going to kill not only me, but all outsiders. You kill Lu Xiaotang first, then me, and finally ignite conflicts, luring all the guests to try to rush out of the scene. As long as you draw your sword, blood will inevitably flow into rivers... In a conflict of force, you will choose to kill everyone, and this is also a plan you have arranged in advance."

Su Ruoshui said in a low voice: "It could have gone smoothly, but who knew you weren't dead?"

Shirataki asked back: "Isn't this a good thing?"

Su Ruoshui glanced at Bai Taki, but smiled unexpectedly: "You're right, it's a good thing..."

She doesn't like killing people, not at all, but sometimes she has to choose to be the executioner.

After brewing alone for a while, Su Ruoshui was startled suddenly, and said strangely: "Wait, why do you think this is a good thing?"

She stared at Shirataki, but she didn't feel any strong killing intent or hatred from his words, instead it was a kind of ridicule and banter.

That's not good intentions, but it's not malicious either.

Su Ruoshui's heart skipped a beat, and she tentatively asked, "You know?"

Shirataki clasped his hands, leaned back, put his right leg against the wall, and raised his head slightly.

"Guessed a fraction, but not sure."

"After seeing your exact reaction, I knew I was right."

"Tianxiang Pavilion is such a good place, even you, the inner ghost who has become a senior sister, has been influenced."

Shirataki said with emotion: "Although you killed people, although you betrayed, although you trampled on the law, I still know from the bottom of my heart...you are a good girl."

Then he couldn't help laughing: "I'm joking."

Su Ruoshui didn't smile at all, she couldn't laugh at all.

The woman's expression was stiff, her mood was complicated, and she had mixed feelings.

She asked in a low voice, "How did you guess that?"

"It's very simple." Shirataki read out a single: "whydunit... criminal motive."

"Although I have found out that you are the murderer through some methods, I still can't see through your motives."

"In the beginning, I didn't care about these things. After all, I am an old man who holds grudges very much. I just want to let you subdue the law so straightforwardly, and then stab you with a sword."

"But if I do that, I'll miss a very important truth, which will lead to the real lurker's stealth, and the fisherman will benefit."

"Thanks to her analysis, I realized that the real reason for you to kill... is to keep Zhenpai Spirit Sword Flying to the Moon and Reaching for the Stars."

Chapter 270 Seven Innocent Truth

In the dimly lit dungeon, the conversation between the two was neither loud nor low.

Shirataki spoke eloquently.

"Actually, from the very beginning, I didn't doubt your reason. It was precisely because of your status. As the elder sister of the sect, and the other few true biography were too far behind, sooner or later you would take over the position of sect master. "

"In addition, you should have known the fact that the head of the sect has been resigned. You just need to wait quietly. You will become the head of the house sooner or later. In my opinion, you are not that ambitious. Not strongly, and even intends to support other true inheritances to replace him."

"Don't look at me like that, it's not hard for me to guess... because you are a little overprotective of Chu Jingjing, saying that all the girls in Tianxiang Pavilion hate marriage, and you stare at your fourth junior sister, caring about her at night The action is really a strong desire to protect."

"At first, I thought this was because my elder sister took care of my younger sister, and my elder sister was like a mother, but then I realized that this might mean that you actually intended her to take over your position as the first true biography... As for why it was Chu Jingjing, it might be because she is The only reliable junior sister."

"Perhaps in this sect grand competition, they wanted to choose the position of the successor of the head. After three years, most people are aware of the fact that the head of Tianxiang has been resigned. Otherwise, why would so many people come to watch the ceremony? Isn’t there such a superficial meaning?”

"As for you, you don't want to accept the position of alternate head. You know exactly why."

Bai Taki narrowed his eyes, smiling half-smile, but it made Su Ruoshui very uncomfortable, as if he had been seen through his heart.

He stopped short and turned back to the topic.

"Let's get back to the point."

"Because your status is too special, I don't believe that you have any reason to harm the interests of the sect. This is tantamount to causing trouble for myself, so I subconsciously didn't doubt you at first, until you insisted on killing me alone and taking my prize." On the head, I just said, 'So it was you'."

"After taking off your identity filter, I realized all kinds of mistakes and all kinds of doubts."

"First, why did you stab Chu Jingjing?"

"Secondly, why did you choose to take the initiative to ask to fly to the moon to pick the stars, so as to expose the theft of the spirit sword?"

"Third, why do you know that Beiming Qingqiu is located in the exterior scene, and you can find her whereabouts and tricks?"

"Fourth, why did you kill Lu Xiaotang, why did you kill me, why did you kill indiscriminately?"

"Fifth, why are you so anxious to kill someone at the expense of revealing your identity?"

"Sixth, why did you convince Chu Jingjing to become your accomplice?"

"The seventh and most important point... Where is Feiyuezhaixing?"

Shirataki raised seven questions, each of which pointed to the crux of the problem.

Su Ruoshui listened quietly, and she said, "Have you answered all these questions?"

Shirataki shook his head first: "At first I didn't, but after thinking about it, I realized it was wrong. If you are a murderer, a ghost, and a sword-stealer, you can't explain the first question, the second question, and the sixth question..."

Su Ruoshui stood in the cage, she stood quietly: "Then you realized?"

Bai Taki then nodded: "Yes...assuming you are the inner ghost, in fact these things will not happen at all, as long as you use the method I mentioned to enter the stone room, steal the flying moon and pick the stars, and then pretend to be an ordinary spirit sword robber Let's go, no one realizes it at all... It is precisely because you offered to ask for the sword that Shen Qingmei executed the location blockade, which led to the follow-up incident."

He looked at Su Ruoshui again: "Besides, now I know very well that you and Chu Jingjing are accomplices, and stabbing her with the sword was a well-calculated plan. There is no 'murderer' at all. In other words, From the very beginning, you have been preparing for 'invite the spirit sword'! This is a play, and you have deceived everyone, just to open the Nine Lotus Heart Lake, confirm the life and death of the master, and determine the whereabouts of the spirit sword."

"It just proves your innocence."

"It's also why I never suspected that you stole the spirit sword."

"If you are the murderer, then the bandits who stole Feiyuezhaixing must be someone else."

"In other words, the sword-stealer and the murderer are two people."

The sound was resounding, and the charcoal was burning in the stove, crackling.

Su Ruoshui let out a breath of white steam: "I am the murderer, who is the one who stole the sword?"

Shirataki narrowed his eyes, looking at the fire in her pupils and the murderous intent on her pale cheeks.

"That's the real reason you killed someone."

"You don't know who the sword-stealer is, but this person not only took away Feiyue Zhaixing, but also stabbed the body of the head of the noble sect with a sword."

"For you, it is a sworn enemy, so...you decided to kill all the foreign guests to ensure that the spirit sword will not be lost."

"You didn't want to create chaos and damage the interests of the sect, nor did you want to gain personal benefits. Instead, you decided to become an executioner in order to kill the sword stealer. As long as you kill all the foreign guests, the Lingjian Feiyue Zhaixing will not be stolen."

"I would rather kill a hundred mistakes than let one go."

"Simple, brutal, effective, direct."

"It just lacks a little bit of humanity and common sense."

Shirataki sighed softly, he felt very innocent to receive a sword for this reason.

Su Ruoshui said softly, "I've never regretted it."

Shirataki expressed his understanding: "I understand."

Su Ruoshui raised her eyes: "You really understand?"

Bai Taki smiled flatly: "I know you killed people because of guilt."

Su Ruoshui's pupils suddenly shrank.

Shirataki said, "Are you surprised? Actually, it's not difficult to guess."

"Think about it, what started the many incidents in the past few days?"

"It started with Chu Jingjing's assassination."

"And these are all directed and performed by you, the purpose is to open the dusty stone room under the Nine Lotus Heart Lake."

"This means that you know that the spirit sword may be stolen, but you clearly know it, but you don't take the initiative to say so."

"Why do you know?"

"And why can't you say it?"

Shirataki spread out his palm, holding the yellow light in his palm, he asked and answered by himself.

"Because you were not innocent in the first place."

"Although you are a big sister, you are also a nail driven into Tianxiang Pavilion, an inner ghost."

"You have known for a long time that after Tianxiang's sect leader is resigned, someone will come to steal the spirit sword, and all you have to do is cooperate."

"But you have stayed in Tianxiang Pavilion for so many years that you have no idea what your identity is."

"You have lived with your sins for so many years, you must feel uncomfortable in your heart, and you have a sense of guilt towards the sect."

"So you want Chu Jingjing to cooperate with you and put on a good show. You want to hide the flying moon and pick the stars, and don't give the other party a chance."

"But you didn't expect the other party to attack so quickly. Feiyue Zhaxing has been stolen, and seeing the remains of the master with your own eyes made you make up your mind."

"You are guilty of your master, your junior sister, your sect... Feelings of guilt and guilt have tormented you day after day for a long time, making you feel like you are sitting on pins and needles, but you know that thousands of apologies can't undo your forgiveness. , might as well just settle it once and for all.”

"But you don't know who is the sword-stealer, and you don't know where Feiyuezhaixing is."

"So you, overwhelmed by guilt and guilt, chose..."

"kill."

"As long as all the suspects are killed, even if the spirit sword cannot be taken back, it will not be sent away. There is still a chance to recover everything."

"And you are already ready to bear all the responsibilities of the crime, accept the trial as a murderer, shoulder the responsibility, and die alone."
