Chapter 162.1 - Missing
--- Li residence
The darkness of the night left a dark shadow on the residence.
But the originally dark side residence was lit up by burning flames, a lot of people had congregated there.
But even if there were a lot of people, no one dared to say a word.
Some who were even more cowardly, shuffled and shuddered as they watched the flames illuminate the b.l.o.o.d.y ma.s.s in the centre of the scene.
Or maybe, it shouldn’t just be called a ‘b.l.o.o.d.y ma.s.s’, after all, those things used to be separate beings.
But as the wind blew the stench of blood everywhere, the pieces of human skin seemed to dance with the wind.
They rustled, making the people’s hearts tremble.
Lou Lianxin’s whole body was completely stupefied.
She’d probably never forget this scene for the rest of her life.
The darkened night and the suddenly appearing human skin that dangled outside of her window, it was like a nightmare.
Dongshuang and Dongxue were frightened silly as well.
They were shaking and trembling as they huddled with Lou Lianxin.
They helped her put on a coat as the three of them had a shockingly pale faces.
And in the centre, Li Miao, had the darkest face of everyone there.
“All leave, tomorrow, we’ll go to the justice department and let Official Zhou come. I just want to see, exactly who it is that is messing with our Li family”!
“Yes, yes, yes.” The housekeeper was startled too and quickly answered.
He began to herd the servants and maidservants back into their rooms.
Those servants and maidservants finally heard some words that would allow them to leave and instantly all disappeared.
Lou Lianxin’s scream had attracted nearly half of the whole residence over.
Half of the crowd had disappeared as only Li Miao, eldest madam, Li Jingsheng and his trusted aides remained.
Li Jingsheng looked at the flickering light that illuminated the b.l.o.o.d.y mess.
But when his eyes fell on the hands of one of the corpses, and what it was gripping, his face instantly turned horrifically pale.
After a long time, he finally seemed to have decided on something.
He silently walked towards Li Miao, “Father, we can’t … can’t call Official Zhou here.”
“Why not?” Right prime minister Li Miao’s eyes coldened, could it be that his second son, who had experienced countless battles and ma.s.sacres, was frightened?
Only these few human skins had scared him?
Li Jingsheng knew what he was thinking and he originally didn’t want to say anything.
But back then, his third brother’s affair was something his father had given to him to deal with.
And it was at that time, he had piqued his father’s interest.
If Official Zhou came and investigated, and he somehow followed the threads back to back then when his third brother had killed those people …
Once that was revealed, his deception and his father’s abuse of power would all be revealed.
At that time, it’d be even harder to clean up.
Furthermore, if it dragged up his third brother, his father would definitely send people to Liyang town and if they couldn’t find him …
The secret that he’d been hiding for so long, would also be exposed …
He bit his lip before slowly speaking, “Father, these few people, do you really not remember them?”
“En?” Li Miao followed Li Jingsheng’s eyes and looked at the b.l.o.o.d.y mess, “How could I be able to see who they are, if they’re this b.l.o.o.d.y?”
“They … well, three years ago, they were third brother’s subordinates and back then … they went to the Jade Rouge store together. Father, do you remember now?”
Li Miao’s body stiffened before suddenly whipping around to turn to Li Jingsheng, “You’re saying that they’re …”
“Yes, it’s these few people.”
“But …” Li Miao suddenly stopped, turning to face the eldest madam and Lou Lianxin.
“Madam and Jingsheng’s family can first go and rest. You few can deal with this. Jingsheng, follow me!”
“Yes.” Li Jingsheng silently lowered his eyes and followed Li Miao away.
He could only depend on his father to suppress this news.
But now, the problem is how to make sure that his father didn’t go to find his third brother.
He sucked in a deep breath before following Li Miao into his study room.
