Chapter 1300 The Daughter Abandoned During Escape (12)
The man was ferocious and skilled, much more powerful than the previous killer. The previous killer's skills were very ordinary. I don't know if the person behind the scenes thought that Chang Shichu was a weak woman and sending him to kill her was enough, so Chang Shichu easily killed him back.
But the person who came back was not on the same level as the previous one. Chang Shichu couldn't help but become more serious when fighting with him.
She thought to herself, could this man be an accomplice of the killer just now? He had been paying attention to her situation before, and only came out to deal with her after seeing that the killer was killed?
But if that was the case, why didn't he stop me from interrogating him in advance? After all, the killer just said a "fact" that he didn't know whether it was true or not. Although it might be false, the more you say, the more mistakes you make. Even if it was false, it gave me a clue...
While Chang Shichu was quickly thinking in his mind who would send so many assassins to kill him, he was also dealing with the second person without any slack.
However, during the fight, the man suddenly asked, "Are you Chang Shichu, Miss Chang?"
"I am. Why, don't you know your target clearly when you come to kill someone?" Chang Shichu said sarcastically.
"Miss Chang! What a misunderstanding, what a misunderstanding... I'm not here to kill you..." When the man heard her words, his face suddenly changed and he quickly stopped attacking Chang Shichu.
However, he stopped, but Chang Shichu would not stop, so he was soon hit in the face by Chang Shichu's left and right hands. He had to defend himself and explain, "Miss Chang, we all misunderstood. I am not here to kill you, I just want to tell you something! Just now I saw you standing in front of a pool of blood and I misunderstood you. Let's stop now and listen to my explanation, okay?"
Chang Shichu saw that he was sincere and only defended against his attacks without fighting back, so he began to believe him a little.
But it was just a little bit. After all, who knew if he was trying to cheat?
"Then let me tie your hands first, and then I'll take you home and explain it clearly." Chang Shichu said half-doubtfully after stopping.
The man gritted his teeth and said, "Okay! I believe Miss Chang won't wrongly accuse good people or kill innocent people." As he said that, he stretched out his hands. Chang Shichu suddenly grabbed the hem of his robe, tore off a strip of cloth, and tied his hands.
The man smiled bitterly and said, "Do you have to tear my clothes off if you tie me up?"
"What else? Are you going to tear mine apart?" Chang Shichu sneered.
The man choked and shut up.
Chang Shichu dragged him in through the back door. Aunt Ye was processing vegetable seedlings in the backyard. She was shocked to see Chang Shichu coming in with a strange man with his hands tied. She hurried forward and asked nervously, "Master, what happened? Do you want to go out and find someone to help?"
"No need. This man can't do anything bad while he's tied up. Go and help me clean up the bloodstains on the ground at the back door." Chang Shichu ordered.
"Bloodstains? Boss, are you injured?" Aunt Ye quickly looked at Chang Shichu and asked anxiously.
"No, the blood belongs to someone else. You should deal with it quickly. It would be bad if someone saw it." Chang Shichu urged.
"Okay, okay, I'll clean it up now." Aunt Ye didn't ask any further questions. She had experienced all kinds of things in her life and had seen a lot of blood. She wouldn't be scared by a little blood.
However, when she saw the large pool of blood on the ground at the back door, she was still shocked. After all, it was not just a little blood.
Chang Shichu brought the man into his study, closed the door, and then interrogated him.
"Name, age, occupation, the reason you showed up at my back door, why you know me, what news do you want to tell me... I hope you can answer these questions clearly." Chang Shichu said straight to the point.
When the man heard her series of questions, his scalp tightened, and when he saw Chang Shichu's pretty face and beautiful eyes looking at him coldly, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "As expected, she is a woman who can earn such a large family fortune at such a young age. She is smart, calm, and extraordinary."
Seeing that Chang Shichu was beginning to look impatient, the man quickly replied, "My name is An Bang, I'm 23 years old, and my profession is... a defender of my country... The reason I showed up at your back door is because I know something about you and I need to tell you... Why do I know you? I know Pu Qirui, he told me about you... The news you reported? That someone was plotting to kill you."
He seemed very honest and answered Chang Shichu's questions patiently one by one.
"Anbang? Is this your real name?" Chang Shichu narrowed his eyes. He felt that this name had a familiar feeling...
Anbang froze for a moment, and finally said helplessly: "It's a pseudonym, but the content of my work needs to be kept confidential, and my identity also needs to be kept confidential."
"Since everything needs to be kept secret, why do you come to me in broad daylight? Aren't you afraid of being discovered?" Chang Shichu was puzzled.
"Hehe, few people have seen my true appearance, and no one would recognize me if I show up." An Bang suddenly said with some pride.
When Chang Shichu heard what he said and thought of his acquaintance with Pu Qirui, he immediately understood this guy's identity.
"You know Pu Qirui? Can you tell me this? Isn't it a secret? Aren't you afraid that I will leak it and kill you?" Chang Shichu asked.
An Bang smiled and said, "Miss Chang, you wouldn't do that. You were so kind as to help collect and properly bury the bodies of people you had never met before. How could you harm me, a person whose goal is to defend our country?"
Chang Shichu immediately raised his eyebrows and said with a half-smile, "You really trust me."
"Of course, you are a kind person with compassion." Anbang nodded seriously when he heard her say this.
"I'm not a good person." Chang Shichu was not blinded by his admiration, but continued to ask, "You haven't told me who wants to murder me."
As soon as she said this, Anbang suddenly became serious and said, "Actually, I sneaked into the new commander's banquet last night and overheard it there."
When Chang Shichu heard what he said, he was really surprised.
"I was just eavesdropping and didn't fully recognize the identities of the people present, but I recognized two of them. One was the wealthy businessman Wang Qingsheng, and the other was Liu Wenzhao, an official from the Statistics Bureau." An Bang recalled carefully.
Chang Shichu thought about it and had no impression of these two people. He said, "I don't know these two people. Did they kill me for profit?"
"Yes, they covet your assets and think you are the easiest fat sheep to target. It's easy to deal with you. As long as we deal with you cleanly, there won't be any worries." An Bang stared at her steadily and said, "You are weak and alone, but you have something that people covet."
"So I've become a soft persimmon?" Chang Shichu was so angry that he laughed.
