Xie Nancheng, the heir of a top-tier wealthy family, suddenly developed a hidden illness. His pre-arranged marriage partner was swapped, replaced by a young adopted daughter from the countryside to...
Chapter 696: Suspected of being manipulated
At such a critical moment, Tu Ran actually took out his mobile phone and turned on the video recording function with one hand.
With his other hand, he silently pulled out a dagger.
When the man in the raincoat chopped at him like crazy.
Tu Ran took a false step and the man in the raincoat was stunned.
The person who was clearly in front of me disappeared.
The next second, Tu Ran appeared behind the man.
"I'm here."
As soon as her voice rang out, the man in the raincoat turned around immediately.
Although he was wearing a mask, his eyes looked extremely fierce.
"Who are you and why are you attacking me?"
"Can you let me go? I can give you money." Tu Ran said this not because he was afraid, but to get the other party to talk.
As expected.
"I don't want money, I want you to die."
After saying that, the man swung his axe again without any mercy.
"Who sent you? Why are you trying to kill me?"
Tu Ran dodged and tried to stop, but the man was no longer talking.
Just chase and attack Tu Ran relentlessly.
No matter how Tu Ran ran, he couldn't get rid of her.
"It's over. I can't escape. It looks like he really is here to kill me."
"So……"
Tu Ran paused the video and put away his phone when he said this.
The man in the raincoat was led to the end of the road, a more remote place where there were no cameras and it was a blind spot.
"Then it's my turn to fight back."
As soon as he finished speaking, Tu Ran rushed forward and the man was a little confused.
He probably didn't expect that the desperate woman he was chasing would rush up to him in such an abnormal manner.
Just as he was subconsciously stunned, Tu Ran sprinkled a handful of powder.
He held his breath while wearing a mask, because the person who sent him had told him that the woman could use poison.
So he was prepared a long time ago.
Seeing this, Tu Ran just smiled faintly.
The powder was not meant for him to smell, but for his eyes.
Sure enough, when the powder floated over, the man in the raincoat suddenly felt a burning sensation in his eyes.
He subconsciously closed his eyes, and taking advantage of this moment, Tu Ran took out a dagger and stabbed it directly.
With a "whoosh" sound, the knife penetrated very deeply.
But she perfectly avoided the vital parts, which only caused him pain and made him unable to move, but not life-threatening.
The man in the raincoat groaned and tried to pull out the knife with his hand.
"I advise you not to move if you don't want to die." Tu Ran warned calmly, word by word.
The man suddenly didn't dare to move.
"My cut is very deep. If you pull it out now, you will bleed profusely. Even if you call a taxi to take you to the hospital, it won't be in time. You might die on the way."
"If you don't draw your sword, I promise you'll live."
"So you choose."
"Despicable." The man cursed with gritted teeth, but still did not dare to open his eyes.
The burning in his eyes and the pain in his abdomen made his head feel dizzy.
Suddenly, his whole body convulsed and he lay on the ground, looking extremely painful.
Tu Ran saw a faint black gas slowly rising from above his head.
Then it stayed in the air for two seconds before disappearing.
The knife that stabbed the man in the raincoat was not an ordinary knife, but a wolf-tooth dagger.
That’s right, it was one of the three treasures that she had spent millions to ask Mu Wanjun to buy a long time ago.
This thing has been kept in Tianyi Pavilion and she has no use for it for the time being.
But recently, as the Xie family has been in trouble, all kinds of monsters have come to plot against her and Xie Nancheng.
Tu Ran kept it in mind.
Especially after that incident, Bai Yi also said that there is a monster in Xiangcheng.
Others might take it as a joke, but she wouldn't.
Although she had no direct evidence and did not see anything with her own eyes.
But it was obvious that Xiangcheng had indeed become strange after Lu Xuaner came back.
Overnight, stray cats were slaughtered, and Bai Yi's men were bitten by a crazy woman.
All these prove that someone is using something like black magic to harm people.
So, she had to be on guard.
Three days ago, she started carrying this wolf-fang dagger.
When the man in the raincoat rushed out just now, she could tell that something was wrong with him.
Or the breath is wrong. This is not the breath that an ordinary person should have.
It was a strange, fishy smell that was not something humans should have.
So at that moment, Tu Ran decided to solve the problem with the wolf tooth dagger.
Seeing that the person in front of him had no strength to fight back, Tu Ran took out his cell phone and did not call the police, but called Bai Yi directly.
Although Bai Yi shot and killed someone, it was also to protect his colleagues.
After a rigorous investigation, he was released.
I just didn't go to work for the time being because I was afraid of bad public opinion.
After receiving the call, Bai Yi rushed to the scene immediately, and he came alone.
Driving his own private car, a black Audi A7, he looked quite cool.
When Tu Ran saw him, he narrated the whole incident calmly and concisely.
Bai Yi was slightly surprised after hearing this.
"Did you record it?"
"Well, I'm afraid if he dies, I won't be able to prove that I acted in self-defense."
"The definition of self-defense in our country is too strict, so I have to do this."
"Smart." Bai Yi looked at Tu Ran with admiration.
"Let me see the video."
Tu Ran took out his cell phone and opened the video.
After reading it, Bai Yi nodded and said, "No problem, you did a good job. You have already determined the other party's motive for killing you, so you have the right to protect yourself. Even if this person dies, you will not bear any responsibility."
"But he shouldn't be dead."
"We need to send him to the hospital and call the police, right?" Tu Ran asked.
"Well, you call 120, and I'll contact my colleagues to take care of this matter." Bai Yi also picked up the phone.
The two men had a clear division of labor, and soon the ambulance arrived and took the person away.
Bai Yi and Tu Ran also followed the ambulance to the hospital.
In the hospital corridor.
Bai Yi lit a cigarette, "Would you like one?"
It was a lotus in green packaging. Tu Ran glanced at it and waved his hand, "I don't smoke."
"Good habit." Bai Yi smiled.
"I'm sorry to bother you with today's matter." Tu Ran said.
"Don't say such things to me. I believe you saw the message I left you last time."
"Yes, so I was prepared. I used the wolf tooth dagger. I saw a black gas float out of his head after he was injured. I don't know what it was, but it was definitely an evil force. So I suspect this person is not a professional killer. If he was a professional killer, his skills would not be so poor."
"I subdued him with almost no effort. I suspected that he was possessed by some evil spirit or something, and was controlled by it, so he came to kill me," Tu Ran explained.
"Did you record it?"
Tu Ran shook his head. "No, because it happened suddenly and I didn't prepare in advance. But I promise that what I said is true, even though it sounds incredible."
"I know, I believe you." Bai Yi said with a serious expression.
Unconsciously, he seemed to have regarded Tu Ran as a trustworthy friend.
The reason I first came into contact with her was probably because of her identity: she was Xie Nancheng's wife.
It was also because she was Mu Wanjun's friend, and later because Tu Ran could help him investigate the case.
But at this moment, he suddenly felt that he had already regarded Tu Ran as a friend.
"Brother Bai." At this time, three policemen came into the corridor.
