Chapter 234: No Results
"Did you all discover that Dong Su was murdered together?" Tie Wandao asked Guan Wenliang.
"Yes." Guan Wenliang said.
"Who went in first?" This question suddenly occurred to Tie Wandao after he saw Guan Wenliang. He had not asked his other subordinates before.
“Yes… we went in together.”
"There has to be a sequence."
"Oh... then... it seems to be... Wang Qi." Guan Wenliang said. From the tone and expression of the clan leader when he asked these questions, he felt that the clan leader's attitude towards the person who entered first seemed not to be good. In fact, he and Wang Qi entered Dong Su's room almost at the same time, and he was even a little earlier than Wang Qi, but he only said Wang Qi. He knew that under the circumstances at that time, other subordinates could not tell whether it was him or Wang Qi who entered Dong Su's room first.
"Oh? Wang Qi... do you think... there is anything abnormal about him recently?" Tie Wandao asked tentatively.
"He...he has always been quite abnormal." Guan Wenliang and Wang Qi often disagreed. The clan leader used to favor Wang Qi, and Guan Wenliang was not convinced. The last time Wang Qi detailed to other subordinates the matter of selecting a sparring partner for the young clan leader, it was Guan Wenliang who passed it to Tie Wandao. Later, Dong Su was favored, and Wang Qi was slightly neglected compared to before, and Guan Wenliang felt a little relieved. Unexpectedly, Dong Su was killed, so he thought that the clan leader would use Wang Qi again, so he was a little dissatisfied. In addition, Wang Qi had a little conflict with him the night before, so he took the opportunity to say in front of the clan leader that Wang Qi had always been abnormal.
Tie Wandao was stunned by Guan Wenliang's words. He could not help but think of what Tie Jinjue said: "Some people act one way in front of others, but act another way behind others' backs." He thought: Although Wang Qi was also "acting in front of others" when he was in front of Guan Wenliang, he was not in front of himself, the clan leader, after all. It is entirely possible that he acted one way in front of himself, the clan leader, and acted another way in front of Guan Wenliang. If one of his states is pretended and the other is real, then the possibility that he was pretending in front of himself, the clan leader, is greater than the possibility that he was pretending in front of Guan Wenliang.
Tie Wandao asked: "Always abnormal? What are the specific manifestations?"
"It's hard to say specifically, but it's weird. I don't know what he's thinking," said Guan Wenliang.
After hearing this, Tie Wandao became even more suspicious of Wang Qi, but he himself had never found anything wrong with Wang Qi, so he talked to Guan Wenliang about something else and let Guan Wenliang go back.
Although Tie Wandao sent people to investigate the murder of Dong Su in detail, it was ultimately fruitless. He was suspicious of Wang Qi, but could not find any evidence to prove that there was anything wrong with him. He had to be wary of him and no longer used him when doing some important things.
Just like many things in the world that are hard to explain, Wang Qi was ignored for no apparent reason, but he didn't care much about it. Not caring made his life less tiring. Guan Wenliang was secretly happy that Tie Wandao didn't use Wang Qi as much as before, but he himself didn't get any benefit from Wang Qi's lack of use.
Tie Hongyan and Wu Xunsheng practiced basic skills together under the guidance of Di Feng.
Wu Xunsheng was so exhausted every time because of his poor physical strength, but he never stopped because he was too tired to bear it. Despite this, his progress was still not great.
