Chapter 107 This time it’s Qi Shang.
After Liang Nan and Liang Qun received the news, they quickly rushed to the district clinic. When they entered the room, several people from the second team were there, and they all looked unhappy.
They walked forward and saw that Liu Yang, who was lying on the bed, had his wounds treated. No one knew how serious his injuries were before. Now he was wrapped like a mummy, with even most of his head and face covered. Only one eye and a small half of his face were exposed, with purple bruises on them.
Cheng Yuefeng, who was sitting beside the bed, saw them and greeted them, but his usual smile was gone. He frowned slightly and looked not in a good mood.
"Do you know what's going on?" Liang Qun asked first.
Cheng Yuefeng shook his head and sighed, "The surveillance footage at the place where Ah Yang had the accident hasn't been repaired, so they didn't capture anything. It's still unclear who did it."
"I think it's those guys who usually don't get along with us!" Qi Shang said angrily, "Who else could do such a thing except them!"
"Qi Shang!" Cheng Yuefeng turned and shouted at him. The other party reluctantly shut up. Then he continued, "District Chief, Deputy District Chief, no matter what, Ah Yang is in trouble in the district. We must investigate this matter thoroughly. Not only to give him justice, but also for the stability of the district."
"We know, don't worry," Liang Qun reassured him. "We'll definitely investigate."
Just like what the other party said, even if it is not for Liu Yang, it is also for the future stability of the safe zone. The people in their area are already uneasy, and if this matter does not give a result, it will probably be difficult to appease them.
But he really couldn't figure out who could do such a thing.
Liu Yang is an extrovert and good at talking. He is usually quite popular in the district and can chat with almost everyone. It is unlikely that he is venting his personal anger.
Although the superpowers were not friendly with each other due to their interests, they did not have any deep hatred. There was no need to be ruthless, and they would never target Liu Yang.
So why did the other party do this? Did Liu Yang really offend someone at some point?
"I believe the district chief and deputy district chief will handle it," Cheng Yuefeng said, barely raising his lips to greet them. He then glanced at the person who had fallen into a coma on the bed and added, "Although Ah Shang's words were a bit harsh just now, I think they make sense. Perhaps we can start from this aspect."
Liang Qun nodded when he heard this. Most of the people with special abilities could still maintain superficial peace. Because of Cheng Yuefeng's personality, he could usually discipline the people in Team 2 and get along with everyone in a friendly manner. The relationship between the other teams and them was pretty good.
But when there are so many people, there are bound to be some troublemakers. We can't stand their way of doing things, and there are always some quarrels. It is indeed necessary to start the investigation with them.
"I know what to do. You guys take care of him first. We'll leave first." Liang Qun glanced at the person on the hospital bed again, turned around and left with Liang Nan.
The ward was quiet for a long time. When the footsteps outside faded away, Qi Shang gritted his teeth and said, "Cousin, are we just going to ignore this matter? What if it's someone from Team One? That guy named Zhou Tai has been looking down on us all day long. If we let the district chief and his men investigate, who knows if he will cover up for them? After all, they are the closest to us!"
"Let them investigate first," Cheng Yuefeng crossed his arms over his chest and leaned back in his chair. "Let's wait and see what Ah Yang says when he wakes up. I won't let this go easily."
As he spoke, a cold look appeared in his eyes, which were shielded by lenses. No matter who it was, if they touched him, they would have to pay the price.
After leaving the clinic and getting in the car, Liang Nan pinched his chin and said, "Brother, who do you think did this? Is it really someone from the district? Could it be that we didn't guard well enough and let someone in?"
Liang Qun shook his head slightly. "It's unlikely. The safe zone is surrounded by high walls. If you want to get in, you must use supernatural powers. The daily patrol team can't fail to discover it. There haven't been any new recruits recently..."
He suddenly stopped talking halfway through.
"Brother?" Seeing him in a daze, Liang Nan waved his hand in front of his eyes, "What are you thinking about? Tell me."
Liang Qun came back to his senses, turned to look at her, and said, "Nannan, what do you think of the relationship between Mr. Jiang and Cheng Yuefeng?"
"Huh?" Liang Nan scratched his face in confusion. "They're pretty good, right? Aren't they college classmates? They had a pretty good chat during dinner. Brother Jiang has that kind of personality and can get along well with others. They must have a good relationship. And Cheng Yuefeng even asked me which floor Brother Jiang lives on, saying he wanted to catch up with him."
Is that really the case? Liang Qun frowned slightly, but he had always felt something was wrong during the meal. Jiang Jie didn't seem as friendly as he looked. Although he didn't know him very well, he was still good at judging people. When he occasionally looked at Cheng Yuefeng, his smile was not in his eyes.
Of course, it might also be because he was naturally alienated from others, and the only person he really cared about was Lin Mian.
But if that's the case, then it's even more contradictory...
Judging from the few times he had met him, Jiang Jie was not the kind of person who would flatter. If he really didn't care about Cheng Yuefeng, he would not pretend to be friendly for the sake of so-called social etiquette.
"Brother, why are you in a daze again?" Liang Nan tilted her head and leaned closer to his face. "Also, what do you mean by suddenly asking me about Brother Jiang?"
After a pause, she suddenly became smart and said, "You don't suspect that this matter has something to do with Brother Jiang?!"
Liang Qun was silent for two seconds, then asked, "Do you think this is possible?"
"Of course not!" Liang Nan immediately retorted, "Brother Jiang, you've seen his temper, haven't you? If he really disliked someone, he would have slapped him away on the spot. Why would he do something so sneaky?!"
What she said made sense, and Liang Qun couldn't refute it. But after thinking it over carefully, he still speculated: "Maybe he doesn't want to cause any trouble for no reason?"
Liang Nan looked speechless. She leaned back in her chair with her arms crossed. "Brother, I'm much stronger now, right? I'm not afraid of a B-level mutant fighting alone. I can even fight two of them, even if I get hurt. What do you think will happen if I go up against Brother Jiang?"
Liang Qun glanced at her sideways and said, "You will be beaten to death."
"Isn't that the end of it?" Liang Nan clapped his hands. "I can use force to suppress these people with special abilities in the district, let alone Brother Jiang. What trouble is he afraid of? If he comes one by one, he'll beat him up. If he comes two by two, he'll beat them up!"
What she said made sense, but Liang Qun just felt something was wrong. He didn't say anything for a while, and his brows were furrowed.
Liang Nan stretched out his hand and poked him between the eyebrows. "Brother, don't think about it. Let's take a step back. If it really is Brother Jiang, then we can't stop him. It's useless for you to think about it."
Indeed, if it was really Jiang Jie who did it, they couldn't do anything about it, so it would be better not to cause trouble for themselves.
Liang Qun brushed her hand away, his brows relaxed. He started the car and said, "Let's go check on the other people in the area first."
*
The news that Liu Yang was inexplicably beaten spread among the people with special abilities in the district that day.
There was not much unpleasantness in the gloating over the conflict with the second team, but after these emotions passed, most people began to think about who did it.
After all, it happened in the district, and no one knew about it. After all, Liu Yang was a person with superpowers. To be able to beat him like this silently, the other party must be much stronger than him.
In the district, the only people who have this ability, apart from the district chief, are the captains of several teams.
Liang Qun thought so too, so he asked several people one by one, but unfortunately, they all had alibis for the time period when the other party was in trouble, and they happened to be with someone at the time.
Of course, the possibility of perjury cannot be ruled out, after all, some of them are with their own teammates.
Liang Qun felt very troubled by this. He never expected that he was already struggling enough to survive, and now he had to "investigate the case".
But just when there was no clue about this matter, someone was beaten again the next day, this time it was Qi Shang.
Similarly, he was seriously injured and unconscious, and was placed in the same ward with Liu Yang.
Liang Qun and the others went to see him again. According to Liang Nan's description, this was the first time she saw Cheng Yuefeng's face so dark, almost as dark as the bottom of a pot.
She expressed her understanding. After all, the people who got into trouble both times were from their second team, and this time it was his cousin. It was said that he was beaten even worse than Liu Yang. When he was found by the team members, he was covered in blood, and the other party thought he was dead.
The speculation that the murderer had a grudge against Team Two became even more certain, and the other two people in their team couldn't help but feel a little nervous.
Except for the captain, the strength of the others is about the same. If the opponent really dislikes everyone in their second team, the two of them probably won't be able to withstand it if they meet.
In order to appease them, Cheng Yuefeng asked them to stay with him recently and try not to act alone.
"Brother Jie, if you do this, Liang Qun and the others will have a terrible headache for the next couple of days," Lin Mian took a piece of dried apple and took a bite. "I'm afraid he's questioned every psychic."
"Isn't that good?" Jiang Yan lowered his head and took the half-sliced apple from his hand. After eating it, he said, "It just happened to spur him to investigate his subordinates more, so as to prevent traitors from appearing in the future."
What he said makes a lot of sense. He really doesn't reflect on himself at all. Lin Mian took another piece of dried apple from the bag and thought to himself, poor brother and sister, it's their bad luck to meet this big guy.
"Then tomorrow, are you going to continue?" Lin Mian thought for a moment and said, "Is it Cheng Yuefeng's turn?"
"No," Jiang Yan stroked his waist intermittently and said, "Tomorrow, we should go visit the wounded."
Lin Mian looked up at him. What's the difference between this and killing someone and then dancing on their grave?
Jiang Yi smiled, took the piece of dried apple from his hand, and fed it to his mouth himself. When he opened his mouth to take a bite, he lowered his head and bit the other half.
Well, it tastes better this way.
