Chapter 10: Gap
Luo Pingcheng angrily threw things one after another, and the glass and ceramics hit the ground hard and shattered into pieces.
Amidst the flying debris, an aunt who had just come to work at the Luo family instinctively dodged backwards. Luo Pingcheng saw her and grabbed an ashtray to throw at her.
The ashtray hit Lian Ye on the head, breaking his forehead exactly.
Bai He frowned and sighed quietly: The wound there has not healed yet, and it has been broken again. If it is hit again, this kid's brain will be even worse.
Facing the furious and irritated Luo Pingcheng, Bai He didn't dare to object and could only quietly remind him, "It seems the Second Young Master will be back today. If he sees this, I'm afraid he'll be worried about the Third Young Master."
Yes, Luo Pingfeng was very worried about his younger brother's "mental state".
Although, Bai He also suspected that Luo Pingcheng was a lunatic.
However, Luo Pingcheng didn't really have any mental problems. He just went crazy and lost his temper when faced with difficulties he couldn't handle.
"Second brother, are you coming back?" As expected, Luo Pingfeng is a good medicine to this madman, no, it may also be a poison.
"That's what he said before he left. Also, the Second Young Master said he would handle the lawyer and the workers' rights issue, so the Third Young Master shouldn't worry too much."
Bai He spoke in a tactful way because he was afraid that Luo Pingcheng would go even crazier and hit himself on the head with the vase.
Luo Pingfeng's original words were: "Don't let Third Brother interfere in Shi Mingguang's affairs and the lawsuit. You can't use Third Brother's methods to deal with people like this. His methods will only make things worse. Look at what he did? He even provoked Shi Mingguang to come home and cause trouble!"
The implication is that Luo Pingcheng is not capable enough, and the matter has come to this point, so Luo Pingfeng can only step in personally to resolve it.
"Did my second brother tell you how he was going to deal with that ignorant lawyer?"
Luo Pingcheng was curious and hopeful. He also wanted to find out if he had a chance to redeem himself and show his abilities in front of Luo Pingfeng.
Bai He raised the corner of his mouth and smiled bitterly: Haha, what a little master who is impossible to teach. Luo Pingfeng has an older brother who is too cowardly, which is a headache for him, and a younger brother who is too self-righteous, which is also a headache for him.
Luo Pingfeng is perfect, but unfortunately Luo Pingshan and Luo Pingcheng are not. They will undoubtedly become loopholes in Luo Pingfeng.
No matter how strong a barrier is, once a crack appears, the enemy will aim at the crack and attack directly, and it will soon collapse.
Luo Pingfeng feared his brothers' incompetence or madness more than anyone else. He was afraid that these would become the gaps that would destroy him and cause the entire Luo family to collapse.
Therefore, Luo Pingfeng needs an excellent patch to fill the gaps left by his elder brother and younger brother and repair the gaps in the Luo family.
No wonder, as soon as I graduated and came back, Luo Pingfeng brought me with him. A smart brain and a calm and composed personality are very useful to Luo Pingfeng.
"Third Young Master, why don't you tell the kitchen to prepare some dishes that Second Young Master would like to eat? Once Second Young Master has taken care of everything, you two brothers can have a good meal tonight."
Bai He had a way to calm Luo Pingcheng down and persuade him to leave.
Luo Pingcheng went to the kitchen to give instructions, and the servants all breathed a sigh of relief. Bai He urged them softly, "Hurry up and clean up here quickly. Be careful today and don't make the Third Young Master angry."
He lay motionless all night, letting the blood flow from his forehead, his eyes full of anxiety as he stared at Baihe.
"Do you have something to say?" Bai He pulled him to the outdoor balcony, took out a handkerchief from his pocket and gently pressed it on his forehead, then casually expressed the thoughts that had been bothering him all night.
"Second Young Master, what does he plan to do?" Lian Ye felt that it was too late to ask, and he should have asked, "Did Luo Pingfeng do anything to Shi Mingguang?"
However, he couldn't ask that. His identity and position didn't allow him to do so, and he didn't dare to ask that. He couldn't easily judge how loyal Bai He was to the Luo family.
"Don't worry, the Second Young Master and the Third Young Master have completely different methods. He doesn't like to use force, and he hates the smell of blood even more."
Bai He pushed his glasses and put on a half-smile, which made Lian Ye feel a chill in his heart. He didn't dare to ask any further, for fear that it would reveal that he had met Shi Mingguang.
"I have to go back to the company. Please take care of your wound yourself."
Bai He patted Lian Ye's shoulder, turned around and left. After taking two steps, he stopped again and turned back to smile at Lian Ye: "Although the Third Young Master messed up, you accidentally made a contribution. I hope the Second Young Master won't be sour when he comes back tonight."
He stood there in a daze all night, unable to react for a long time. He just quickly reviewed the scenes that had happened in the past few days in his mind. In the scenes related to Shi Mingguang, did something go wrong? Was he caught in some kind of handle?
Finally, the image in Lian Ye's mind froze in that dark alley.
Shi Mingguang waved anxiously at the entrance of the alley, and Song Kang ran towards him breathlessly.
"Luckily I was on duty last night so I could rest early this morning. You suddenly sent me a location and called me over. Do you really think I can be available 24 hours a day?"
Song Kang complained about Shi Mingguang, but he rushed over as fast as he could.
Shi Mingguang was slandered and he immediately tried to find a way to clarify the matter after seeing the news online. However, he planned to start his investigation with the media person who first spread the photos.
"That photo looks like it was taken from this angle. It was taken by a dashcam. If we can find other cars parked in that direction at the time, maybe one of them captured the entire encounter between me and that man, proving we didn't arrange to meet beforehand."
Shi Mingguang did not give Song Kang time to continue complaining. He pointed to a place where several cars were parked. It was one of the public parking spots for the benefit of the people in the old district.
At night, nearby residents park their cars here to reduce parking fees.
"So, you ran into him by chance here in the alley that night?"
Song Kang stared at Shi Mingguang's eyes nervously. He certainly believed in Shi Mingguang's character, but he was afraid that Shi Mingguang was too kind and would show kindness to the other party no matter what kind of villain he was.
"Yes, I was in a hurry to find my client, so I took a detour this way to get closer. Then I heard some strange noises in the alley, and I seemed to smell blood, so I went in to ask."
Shi Mingguang slowly recalled the scene that night: "There was blood on his face and clothes. At the time, I thought he was injured, but he clearly said that it was not his blood."
Shi Mingguang thought of something, a terrifying thing he hadn't thought about that night. He looked at Song Kang in horror: "That man, if he is the mysterious killer of the Luo family, then what he said at that time was the truth? The blood on his body-"
Song Kang recalled the case that happened that night in an old building nearby. Because the victim was a fugitive, the team leader instructed to conduct a low-key investigation. The members of the organization that harbored the victim unanimously insisted that it was someone from the Luo family who did it, and now it seems that it was not a slander without foundation.
However, Shi Mingguang could not be involved in that case, let alone have anything to do with the Luo family or the Luo family's killers.
"Alright, don't pursue this matter any further. Keep silent and do what you need to do. I'll investigate the nearby vehicles that night and find evidence to prove your innocence."
Song Kang had a plan in mind. The clues provided by Shi Mingguang were very useful. As long as he found the relevant video of that night, not only could he clarify that Shi Mingguang had nothing to do with the killer, but he could also get hold of the Luo family's handle and successfully solve the case that night.
"Well, I do have a lot of things to deal with today. The workers and their families are waiting for me."
Under Song Kang's protection, Shi Mingguang safely got into the back seat of the taxi. Song Kang closed the door, and he hurriedly pressed the window glass, stuck his head out and shouted, "But I have a feeling that man is not the murderous evil spirit in the rumors."
In the darkness and coldness, the man was hiding in it with blood on his body. He didn't look like an ambush and hunting evil ghost, but more like a poor injured little animal.
That's why Shi Mingguang didn't feel any danger, chose to walk towards him, wanted to wipe the blood off his face, and asked him if it hurt.
