Chapter 108 Using the life of an official to frame someone
No matter whether this was true or not, there was no time to verify it. Bu Wei could only order people to search, but Ran Qingxuan next to him suddenly sneered.
"Who are you looking at?"
"What do you mean, I already told you..."
Before he could finish, Ran Qingxuan poured some liquid from the bottle in his hand.
The moment the sulfuric acid came into contact with his skin, Dai Kun could only scream like a pig being slaughtered and keep asking and begging for mercy.
Ran Qingxuan first glanced at Bu Wei, then looked at Dai Kun, and said something meaningful.
"Didn't you say that He Xun went after me? Did you come back to report it?"
"Then why do you know his movements so well? Can you create a clone?"
Bu Wei was not stupid and he immediately sensed something unusual in Ran Qingxuan's words.
Originally, Ran Qingxuan didn't think about it, but Gu Yanchen reminded her at the beginning that there was one official missing.
If Dai Kun's going to Yanliu Lane was just a cover, then there must be someone else behind the attack on He Xun.
She couldn't point it out directly, but she had plenty of ways to make Dai Kun say it himself.
Bu Wei took a step back and looked at his colleagues standing around with a scrutinizing gaze, trying to find out the person who assisted Dai Kun.
But all the officers had expressions of shock and confusion, and some even shook their heads and waved their hands to indicate that it was not them.
Bu Wei couldn't see, and knew he couldn't ask, so he could only cast his gaze at Ran Qingxuan, with a hint of ruthlessness in his eyes, and nodded at her.
Ran Qingxuan had been holding a grudge in her heart for a long time. After getting Bu Wei's consent, she poured sulfuric acid directly on Dai Kun's feet.
The official boots were corroded instantly, and the front half of Dai Kun's feet turned into white bones within a dozen seconds of contact with sulfuric acid.
The visual impact made everyone present feel nauseous, and the women and children even screamed in shock.
The moment Qian Zheng forcibly lifted Dai Kun's legs, the front half of his toes that had been corroded also fell off with his movement.
"ah..."
Dai Kun couldn't bear such a shock. He yelled loudly, then his head tilted and he fainted.
Ran Qingxuan couldn't help shaking his head while holding a half bottle of sulfuric acid. He didn't use much, but everyone could hear him saying, "What a pity! There are still some good things to take out, why did you faint first?"
Then, in the shocked gazes of Bu Wei and other officials, he slowly walked towards a person who had been standing behind the crowd in an attempt to reduce his presence.
Looking at the official opposite who seemed very calm, Ran Qingxuan smiled brightly.
"Since he is unconscious, why don't you tell us where Mr. He went?"
Bu Wei looked at the officer who was called out in shock, as if he did not expect that there was another person in the team who was also involved.
"I don't understand what you are saying."
The scar-faced officer pretended to be confused.
But in fact, he had already felt a chill in his heart because of the coldness and ruthlessness in Ran Qingxuan's eyes.
Bu Wei pressed forward step by step, his hand reaching for the sword at his waist.
"Fu Fan, were you involved in He Xun's disappearance?"
"Boss, would you rather trust this female prisoner than your colleagues?"
It has to be said that Fu Fan is very good at playing the emotional card. Ran Qingxuan saw Bu Wei's hesitation and thought to himself that something was wrong.
She didn't believe that with so many people there, no one would not know that one person was missing.
"Why don't you tell these colleagues what you did when you were not here?"
"I...what else can I do? I have a stomachache and need to go to the toilet."
Subconsciously, Fu Fan blurted out without thinking anything through.
But as soon as he finished speaking, a tall and thin official next to him immediately refuted: "No, He Xun took them out to buy things, and you left within a quarter of an hour. If you went to the toilet, it is impossible for you to be gone for half an hour, right?"
The tall and thin man had a good relationship with He Xun. Seeing that his disappearance was indeed related to Dai Kun, and Ran Qingxuan pointed the finger at another person, he had to tell what he knew.
"What does my going to the toilet have to do with He Xun's disappearance? If you have time to question me, you might as well tie up this woman and torture her. Maybe she has something to do with all this!"
"You are clearly lying. There is only one toilet in the inn. I went there twice after He Xun left, but I didn't see you both times. How can you lie like this and still say that you have nothing to do with He Xun's disappearance?"
Seeing another person come out to testify, Fu Fan's face flashed with panic. More and more officers who had not seen him came out to testify, which completely exposed his excuse.
Fu Fan saw himself surrounded by his colleagues, and Ran Qingxuan was approaching him with highly corrosive sulfuric acid. The moment he lowered his head, Fu Fan had already thought of a countermeasure in his heart.
When he raised his head and looked at Bu Wei again, his eyes were full of pleading.
"Boss, I... Dai Kun threatened me to do this. After all, he can enjoy the shade under the big tree. I am just a small person. How can I compete with him?"
"This was all Dai Kun's idea. I just lent a hand..."
Ran Qingxuan sneered. He had to admit that Fu Fan was indeed hiding very deeply. If he hadn't teamed up with Dai Kun to trip him up, he probably wouldn't have discovered that there was a spy in the end.
If Dai Kun had done it himself in the end, Fu Fan would not have been exposed. It was only because the two of them did not discuss it in advance and gave the evidence to himself for nothing.
"Now can you tell me where Mr. He is?"
When asked about He Xun's whereabouts, Fu Fan's eyes flashed with disdain and sneer, but he still pretended to be heartbroken.
"After Dai Kun knocked the man unconscious, he instructed me to throw him into the dry well at the end of Yanliu Lane. He came back to report that He Xun had gone after the Ran family..."
After hearing Fu Fan's words, all the officials present were instantly furious and also worried about He Xun's safety.
"Qian Zheng, take your people with you and go look for him immediately!"
"yes."
Bu Wei did not go there in person. Instead, he stood there and stared at Fu Fan who was pretending to be timid.
Ran Qingxuan knew that the matter was not over yet, so he continued to ask in front of Bu Wei: "Why did Dai Kun want to harm He Xun?"
"I heard him mention it before. He said that the big man behind him wanted Gu Yanchen to die on the road. He didn't dare to do it openly, so he wanted to use the life of the official to frame him. Anyway, if the criminal killed the official, he would only die in the end..."
Anyone who heard Fu Fan's words would think that the unconscious Dai Kun was the mastermind behind harming He Xun, but to Ran Qingxuan it was exactly the opposite.
Even Dai Kun, that good-for-nothing, could think of things so carefully and do it. Ran Qingxuan really didn't believe that this guy had such ability!
Gu Yanchen's face was also very ugly. No wonder he asked the secret guard to investigate Dai Kun, but the result he got was just that this man had a relative who was an official in the prison.
Now it seems that Fu Fan has cleared himself so cleanly, I am afraid he is a spy planted in the team by someone in the imperial city...
Bu Wei's face was uncertain. Although he was only a small escort of the first rank, he knew something about the dirty deeds among the superiors. Fu Fan had said it so clearly, how could he not understand the hidden meaning in his words.
