Chapter 50: A Hero Saves a Beauty  Chapter 50: A Hero Saves a Beauty

"Mr. Nine, this person is highly suspicious."

After Zhang Liang followed Han Fei out of the Xiao residence, he analyzed with a serious face: "Let's not talk about the fact that Madam Xiao gave false testimony. When he heard the news that Liu Yi was killed just now, he seemed very surprised on the surface, but his eyes did not fluctuate at all. It is obvious that he knew about this matter a long time ago."

"Catch a thief with dirty tricks, catch an adulterer with both."

Han Fei shook his head and said, "Zifang, based on our current speculations, there is no way to convict this man."

"So what should we do next?"

"Wait! I always feel that this case is not that simple. Liu Yi's death should be just the beginning."

Han Fei's eyes narrowed slightly as he said, "If I'm not mistaken, the murderer will definitely commit more crimes. Next, we just need to keep a close eye on the Xiao Mansion, Zi Lan Xuan, and Zuo Sima Mansion."

"Mr. Nine is wise."

It was a dark and windy night, a time for murder and arson.

Under the cover of night, Xiao Feng, dressed in black, left the Xiao Mansion quietly.

Seeing this, Wei Zhuang, who was hiding and watching in secret, had a cold light flashing in his sword eyes, and followed with an expressionless face.

"It's him indeed!"

When Wei Zhuang followed Xiao Feng all the way and saw him climb over the wall into Zuo Sima's Mansion with his own eyes, he had already concluded in his heart that he was the murderer.

In fact, Wei Zhuang didn't care at all who killed Liu Yi. What he really cared about was Hong Yu who was killed by the murderer.

You must know that Zilanxuan is protected by Wei Zhuang. If anyone dares to kill people from Zilanxuan, it would be tantamount to slapping him in the face.

Although Hong Yu's death could not be blamed on Wei Zhuang, because he had just left Zilanxuan to secretly escort Han Fei back home, he would still feel a little guilty.

Therefore, when Wei Zhuang found out that Xiao Feng was the murderer, he only had one thought in his mind, that is, to kill someone and pay with his life!

Xiao Feng did not notice Wei Zhuang following him. After sneaking into Zuo Sima's mansion, he quickly found the villa where Madam Hu lived.

Mrs. Hu is Liu Yi's wife and also Nanyue's biological mother.

Since Nanyue can trigger the projection task of "Beauty but Short Life", then there is a high probability that Madam Hu can also trigger the projection task.

Moreover, according to the development of the original plot, the real murderer who killed Liu Yi should come again to kill Madam Hu tonight, so Xiao Feng sneaked into Zuo Sima's mansion overnight.

???

Wei Zhuang, who was hiding in the dark, saw that Xiao Feng did not enter the villa where Mrs. Hu lived, but hid in a secluded corner outside. He couldn't help but reveal a puzzled expression.

Why does this scene look familiar?

Wei Zhuang's expression changed several times, but he finally gave up the idea of ​​avenging Hong Yu right now. He wanted to see what Xiao Feng was up to.

After all, Wei Zhuang is the descendant of Guiguzi, so his brain is still quite useful.

Xiao Feng's strange behavior did not make people feel that he was a murderer. Instead, it was similar to Wei Zhuang's behavior, as if he had deliberately come to wait for the murderer.

As time passed slowly, just when Wei Zhuang was getting a little impatient, a middle-aged man in a black robe and a vulture mask suddenly appeared in their sight.

"Puff, puff, puff…"

After the vulture broke into the villa where Madam Hu lived, it started killing without saying a word, slashing the throats of all the maids and guards outside the door.

"It's him!"

When Wei Zhuang saw this scene, his pupils suddenly shrank.

The maids and guards who were killed by the vulture had the same wounds on their necks as Hong Yu. It was obvious that this man was the real murderer of Hong Yu.

"Bang!!!"

After killing all the guards and maids outside the door, Vulture kicked open the bedroom door and forced Mrs. Hu to answer questions about Lord Huoyu's treasure.

Lord Huoyu is Madam Hu's father, and was once a well-known wealthy businessman in the land of Baiyue.

At that time, General Li Kai, General Liu Yi, and other generals were ordered to go to the land of Baiyue to quell the rebellion.

On the way to conquer the land of Baiyue, Li Kai fell in love with the eldest daughter of Huoyu Villa, and they got married secretly and even had a child (Nongyu).

Liu Yi, who also admired Mrs. Hu, became jealous when he learned that she was in love with Li Kai, so he planned to kill Li Kai.

Later, Liu Yi colluded with the "Three Broken-Hair Wolves" to rob Huoyu Villa and took away all the treasures of Huoyu Villa.

In order to seize Lord Huoyu's treasure for himself, Liu Yi set an ambush and killed the "Three Wolves with Broken Hair" to silence them.

What Liu Yi didn't expect was that one of the "Three Wolves with Broken Hair" managed to survive and joined the Hundred Birds Organization under Ji Wuye, and was named "Vulture".

The reason why Vulture killed Liu Yi was because he wanted to take back the treasure of Lord Huoyu.

"You...you are the Broken Hair Three Wolves..."

Faced with Vulture's intimidation and questioning, Mrs. Hu quickly recognized his true identity. In addition to anger, she felt more fear.

Mrs. Hu witnessed with her own eyes that her family and servants were brutally murdered by the Three Broken-haired Wolves and this incident has become an indelible nightmare in her heart.

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for coming into contact with the plot character 'Mrs. Hu', triggering a random projection mission - A hero saves a beauty!"

Looking through the open bedroom door, Xiao Feng saw Mrs. Hu shivering, and a system prompt sounded in his ears.

"Ding! Mission content: Save Mrs. Hu who is about to be killed by the vulture. Mission reward: An extra chance to draw a lottery."

"It seems that you won't tell the truth unless I give you a little pain, so don't blame me for being ruthless!"

The treasure of Lord Huoyu has become Vulture's obsession. Of course, he is unwilling to believe that Mrs. Hu does not know the whereabouts of Lord Huoyu's treasure.

Vulture thought that Mrs. Hu was lying to him, so he immediately raised the sword in his hand and slashed at her slender jade fingers.

"call out--"

Just as Mrs. Hu was about to be tortured, a shadow suddenly flew in from outside the door, holding Mrs. Hu and disappeared on the spot.

"Who?"

The vulture's face changed drastically after its attack failed, and it suddenly turned its head to look outside the door.

Xiao Feng, dressed in black, was seen holding the frightened Mrs. Hu, standing upright in the yard outside.

Looking at Madam Hu's pale and pitiful face, Xiao Feng comforted her gently, "Don't be afraid, Madam. With me here, no one can hurt you."

Although Mrs. Hu's appearance is not as good as Jingwei's, she gives people a very elegant and quiet feeling, with a kind of restrained beauty that needs to be savored carefully.

Hearing Xiao Feng's magnetic voice, Mrs. Hu's fear dissipated for the most part, and she immediately showed a somewhat shy expression.

Apart from the deceased Li Kai and Liu Yi, Mrs. Hu had never had such intimate contact with any other man.
