When Su Shi left, Dong Xiaolan reluctantly walked to the door, bowed deeply to him, and said softly: "Thank you, Mr. Xiaolan."
Su Shi just waved his hand casually and said, "It's just a little effort."
At this time, he was thinking about Du Ziqi's case and was worried that something might happen again, so after he finished speaking, he prepared to board the carriage and return home to wait for the news.
Chen Xiaolan saw that he was acting in a hurry and knew that Su Shi had something important to do. She didn't want to disturb him at first, but when she saw Su Shi preparing to leave, she hesitated for a moment and couldn't help but blurt out: "Master."
Su Shi was about to get on the carriage when he heard Chen Xiaolan's voice and turned back to look at her doubtfully: "Do you have anything else?"
Chen Xiaolan whispered: "Sir, since Chen Ji has taken it back, I want to return the house here and move back to Chen Ji."
Su Shi thought for a while and said, "How long have you been renting here?"
"A month."
Su Shi said: "You can rent this place for a long time, and then rent out Chen Ji. You can stop doing business there. You and your daughter can concentrate on staying here to help me."
Chen Xiaolan wanted to say something else, but Su Shi waved his hand again and said without any room for argument: "That's it, I have something to do these days. When the matter is over, I will come back to you to plan our business."
After saying that, he looked at Chen Xiaolan and said with a smile: "Unless you don't want to help me."
Chen Xiaolan said hurriedly: "Young Master is so kind and kind, and Xiaolan has nothing to repay. As long as Young Master orders you, you should obey."
Su Shi nodded and said, "That's good. You can take care of what I asked you to do today. If you need anything, you can come to me at the General's Mansion at any time."
Then, he boarded the carriage, then drew the curtains, and said to Chen Xiaolan, who was still standing by the carriage, "Go back."
Seeing Chen Xiaolan obediently return to the house, he lowered the curtains and said, "Go back home."
Lin Mo shook the reins with both hands, and the carriage started slowly and drove towards the General's Mansion.
When they arrived at the General's Mansion, as soon as Su Shi got off the carriage, servants had already greeted him. While walking towards him, they said eagerly: "Second Young Master, you are finally back. The eldest Young Master has been waiting for you for a long time."
Su Shi felt awe-struck and asked, "Brother is back?"
The servant nodded and whispered: "Besides, the eldest young master seemed to be in a bad mood. As soon as he returned to the house, he sat in the study with a livid face. He only said that the second young master would take you to see him as soon as you come back. "
After he finished speaking, the servant's eyes were full of sympathy and pity, because whenever the eldest son was in such a situation, the second son would be treated badly.
The worst time was that Su Shi couldn't get out of bed for three days.
Su Shi's heart seemed to have hit rock bottom, because Su Zhou's performance told him that this time their operation would probably not go smoothly, and they might even gain nothing.
He couldn't help but sigh, and then walked quickly to the study.
Arriving in front of the study door, Su Shi closed his eyes and calmed down, opened the door and walked in.
As soon as he walked into the study, Su Shi immediately felt a depressing atmosphere, like the weather before a storm.
Although Su Zhou was sitting on the chair with an expressionless face, his eyes were showing an intimidating light. He clenched his fists and his fingers turned white. He was obviously trying his best to control himself.
Su Shi walked to him, picked up the kettle on the table, poured him a cup of hot tea, and then poured himself another cup. He walked to the large chair and sat down comfortably.
He raised his teacup to Su Zhou with a smile and said, "Although tea is not as good at relieving worries as wine, it can make people calm down. So when the mind cannot calm down, drinking tea is the best choice."
Su Shi's words seemed to have a strange power, causing Su Zhou's clenched fists to slowly relax, and his eyes gradually became calm.
He picked up the teacup and took a sip.
The fragrance hit his nostrils and the warmth flowed down his face, which calmed his restless heart a lot.
"The groom is dead." Su Zhou put down the tea cup and said slowly.
After Su Shi took a sip, he slowly put the teacup aside and asked, "How did you die?"
"suicide."
"Can you confirm it?"
"Yes. Because he cut his own throat with a sickle right in front of me."
Su Shi couldn't help but look at Su Zhou in surprise, because he had seen Su Zhou knock down six or seven sharp knives with a pair of fleshy palms. Although it was just a drill, in Su Shi's view, it was undoubtedly an actual battle.
So although he didn't know how skilled Su Zhou was, it shouldn't be difficult to stop someone from cutting his own throat with a sickle.
Seeing Su Shi's surprised expression, Su Zhou couldn't help but smile bitterly and said, "At that time, I could only watch, and I had no time to react."
"Why?"
"Before we entered the house, Zhao Ming picked up the sickle on the table and slashed it across his neck without hesitation. When he fell, his head was almost separated from his neck."
Speaking of this, Su Zhou sighed with emotion: "I have never seen a person commit suicide so decisively and resolutely, as if death is a kind of glory and a kind of relief for him. I even saw him seem to be still alive before he died. Laughing."
Su Shi was not as emotional as Su Zhou, but instead showed a deep hatred and disgust.
Because he knows that if a person's spirit is controlled by others, he will definitely become a walking zombie. Not only will he ignore the lives of others, he will not even cherish his own life.
Such people made Su Shi feel pathetic, but people who controlled other people's minds made him feel extremely hated and disgusted.
So his voice became colder: "Even if a person dies, he can still find out a lot of things."
Su Zhou shook his head and said: "Actually, we found out Zhao Ming's background clearly last night. This man is a very ordinary person with a clean family background. He has lived an honest life for more than thirty years. , I didn’t even have a single quarrel with anyone.”
"Does he have any relatives?"
"No. He is the only one left in the family since his father died five years ago."
"You don't have a wife and children?"
Su Zhou smiled bitterly and said: "Zhao Ming married a wife twelve years ago, but she ran away with her within a year. From then on, he has no intention of marrying again."
"Where did you find him?"
"At his house."
"Where is his home?"
"Siqing Street."
Su Shi asked again: "He has been living in Siqing Street?"
"Yes. He was born and raised in Siqing Street and has been living there for more than thirty years."
Su Shi suddenly said: "Do you have anyone free under your command now?"
Su Zhou asked doubtfully: "What do you want to do?"
"Ask them to investigate something."
"What's up?"
"In the past twelve years, has there been any sect preaching on Siqing Street? If so, which sect does Zhao Mingxin belong to?"
Su Zhou suddenly said: "You mean Zhao Liang is a believer of a certain sect?"
Su Shi sighed: "Brother, have you ever seen an ordinary person be so cruel to me?"
After sighing, Su Shi couldn't help but said, "Brother, please don't tell me that Du Ziqi is dead too."
