Sun Junjie said with a bitter expression, "Boss, I only have one thing to say. I am just an ordinary person. It is impossible for me to kill Ma Zi with knife wounds without anyone noticing. There is obviously something fishy about this. The murderer must be framing me. If you deal with me, wouldn't you be falling into the murderer's trap?"
The long-haired man said, "Don't try that on me. Couldn't you just kill the pockmarked man with one stab first, then slash him dozens of times to mislead everyone?"
Sun Junjie looked at the long-haired man as if he were an idiot and retorted, "If he were really killed with one blow and didn't make any screams, then where would the terrified expression and miserable death look on his face come from? Do I have the time and ability to disguise him?"
The long-haired man snorted but didn't say anything.
Dong Xinran suddenly punched Sun Junjie, sending him flying backward and spitting out a mouthful of blood.
Then, Dong Xinran kicked down again, the force of which caused Sun Junjie to spit out another mouthful of blood.
"Boss, I'm really just an ordinary person," Sun Junjie protested.
Dong Xinran's face was grim. If Sun Junjie was just an ordinary person, then who was the murderer? If this matter wasn't resolved soon, panic would spread throughout the refugee camp, and things would get much worse.
Dong Xinran thought for a moment and said, "Lock Sun Junjie in the room first. I will deal with him personally when it's light tomorrow. Don't sleep too soundly tonight. It's best if multiple people share a room. Also, arrange for someone to keep watch. If you find anyone suspicious, call for help immediately. Understand?"
Everyone replied in unison, "Understood."
Dong Xinran said, "Okay, let's leave it at that for now."
........................................................
After the event, everyone returned to their rooms.
After the two murders, everyone was terrified and no longer dared to live alone. Instead, they found companions to live with and arranged for someone to keep watch at night in case of any sudden incidents.
Ji Hao remained as usual. After all, he was a natural-born superhuman and was not afraid of the other party at all. However, he was very curious about who the murderer was. Was it someone from the refugee camp or an outsider?
However, Ji Hao tends to believe that the murderer is someone from the refugee camp, but the other party is too well hidden, even able to deceive him. Even when he activated his spatial perception, it was of no use. Obviously, the other party has awakened a stealth-type ability, which is troublesome.
Previously, when Ji Hao patrolled Xiantao Mountain, he always used spatial perception. It seems that he needs to be more vigilant in the future. In case there is an extremely strong stealth ability user hiding in the dark, it is hard to guarantee that his woman will suffer.
"Ladies, it's getting late, let's rest first. We can talk about anything else tomorrow." Ji Hao looked at Gu Wanqing, Bai Zhihe, and Yan Miaohan with a mischievous grin.
Gu Wanqing glared at Ji Hao and said worriedly, "What time is it? You're still thinking about that kind of thing. Aren't you afraid the murderer will strike again?"
Ji Hao waved his hand and said confidently, "What's there to be afraid of? No matter how strong the opponent is, they can't possibly be my match."
Bai Zhihe asked, "How did you know?"
Ji Hao said, "The fact that the murderer attacked the refugee camp has nothing to do with me. The only person they were afraid of was Dong Xinran. This means that the murderer's strength is either on par with Dong Xinran's, or most likely, the murderer is no match for Dong Xinran at all. That's why they used so many methods to trip him up. In comparison, I am much stronger than Dong Xinran. If the murderer dares to come, he definitely won't be able to withstand a single move from me. So don't worry, just do what you need to do."
Yan Miaohan said, "That's what they say, but I'm still very scared."
Ji Hao held Yan Miaohan's small hand and said with a smile, "Don't be afraid, my wife. Talk to your husband about your life ideals, and you will naturally have the courage."
Yan Miaohan subconsciously glanced at Gu Wanqing and Bai Zhihe, feeling slightly shy, but she did not reject Ji Hao's intimate behavior.
For some reason, being held by Ji Hao, she felt a strange warmth, and her heart gradually melted.
Of course, it wasn't just her who was melted; Gu Wanqing and Bai Zhihe were also affected.
...........................................................
late at night.
Dong Xinran was in a state of distress when there was a knock on the door.
Dong Xinran was startled, thinking that the murderer had attacked. He quickly activated his supernatural ability and asked with suspicion, "Who?"
"It's me," Zhuo Tingting said in a clear voice.
Dong Xinran opened the door and asked, "Tingting, what brings you here?"
Zhuo Tingting said, "I'm scared."
"Don't worry, I'll protect you," Dong Xinran said. "Come in."
Zhuo Tingting said, "I'll just say a few words at the door."
Dong Xinran didn't force her, and nodded, saying, "Okay, go ahead and say it."
Zhuo Tingting hesitated for a moment before saying, "My mother..."
Dong Xinran said in a deep voice, "I am also heartbroken that your mother is dead, but I really didn't participate. Don't believe those rumors."
Zhuo Tingting said, "I know, I just hope you can find out who did it and help me get revenge."
Dong Xinran said, "Even if you don't say it, I will still do it."
Zhuo Tingting said, "That's good."
"By the way, what exactly is your relationship with that Ji Hao?" Dong Xinran asked.
Suddenly, tears welled up in Zhuo Tingting's eyes, and she said pitifully, "He took a liking to me and wanted me to be his woman, but I only see him as a brother and have no feelings for him at all. I went to his room tonight mainly to talk to him and clear things up, but he actually tried to touch me inappropriately, sob sob... Luckily, he didn't succeed in the end, otherwise, otherwise..."
