Chapter 174: The Killer Confesses!
Mr. Qian Baiyu quietly made a phone call to report to the police when Qin Feng went to save Lan Xin.
Old Sir Qian immediately responded and looked at him approvingly, feeling relieved. There was hope now!!
The Qian Family was one of the Southwest Eight Kings.
They wielded tremendous influence in the Southwest. Chaos would trigger a chain reaction, and in severe cases, it could even affect social stability.
Not to mention, murder was a crime.
If the Qian Family Patriarch was murdered, the authorities would definitely investigate rigorously. Even if Qin Feng were an immortal, he couldn't escape!
"Ha ha ha..."
Old Sir Qian burst into laughter, saying to Qin Feng, "Murder is a crime against heaven and earth. You killed my son, and you will pay for your actions!"
Very soon.
A large group of people quickly arrived on the scene.
Leading them was a beautiful woman with a ponytail and curvaceous figure, Jiang Min.
"Nobody move!"
Jiang Min immediately took control of the situation.
Mr. Qian Baiyu stepped forward and said, "Captain Jiang, it's that guy, he killed my father and also a Grandmaster who was on good terms with our Qian Family!"
"A Grandmaster? Are you kidding me?"
Jiang Min said.
She knew of the Grandmaster's strength and thought it nearly impossible for anyone to kill one.
Let alone the person Mr. Qian Baiyu was pointing at, who appeared thin and not at all like a peerless expert.
"Really..."
Mr. Qian Baiyu said, frustrated.
Jiang Min went first to examine the bodies. Looking at Qian Tianao's corpse, she frowned and murmured, "Killed with a single strike, the murderer is a master..."
She then went to inspect the body of Dragon Slayer Taoist.
Just as she approached,
she immediately felt a powerful aura.
Grandmaster!
That overwhelming aura wouldn't fade immediately after death.
"This person is at least above a military general... no, far stronger than a military general!"
Jiang Min exclaimed in shock.
Never mind whether it was a Grandmaster or not.
If such a powerful person died in a single strike, the assailant's hand was terrifyingly strong!
"Who is the murderer?"
Jiang Min stood up to ask again, while also becoming vigilant.
If the murderer was on the scene, even with the dozens of people she brought, they might not be able to subdue them.
Mr. Qian Baiyu stepped forward again, saying "Captain Jiang, it really is that bastard!"
Jiang Min looked at Qin Feng again and said to Mr. Qian Baiyu, "To frame someone for a crime is a serious offense."
"..."
Mr. Qian Baiyu suddenly felt dejected.
At this moment,
Old Sir Qian stepped forward and said, "Captain Jiang, it is indeed so, everyone present can testify!"
"Really?"
Jiang Min hesitated for a moment, then turned to look at the others.
The others subconsciously took a step back.
"I, I didn't see anything, I was just focused on drinking..."
One of them said.
With him taking the lead, the rest quickly piped in, "Exactly, I didn't see anything either, I was drunk, I don't know anything..."
The onlookers are clear, the players are blind.
They were not foolish.
Putting aside how formidable Qin Feng was for killing Dragon Slayer Taoist, even if he got arrested, there was still the Poisonous Insect King, who was a Half-step Master. They couldn't afford to offend him!
Moreover,
With the Qian Family's support now deceased and such chaos unfolding, even if they got through this safely, they would no longer be counted among the Southwest Eight Kings, and there was no need to flatter them anymore.
"What?!"
Old Sir Qian and Mr. Qian Baiyu, among others, upon seeing this reaction, were so angry they felt like spitting blood, "You, you all clearly saw it. Why don't you tell the truth?!"
Even Liang Jiuxiang, Tan Zhanhu, and others shifted their gaze away at this point.
Old Sir Qian was so livid, he could barely stand.
At this time.
Qin Feng himself stepped forward and said to Jiang Min, "What he said is right, I killed them."
"You?"
Jiang Min, puzzled, still found it hard to believe.
Other people were even more surprised.
They hadn't expected him to actually admit it, a crime punishable by death!
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Old Sir Qian burst into excited laughter, "Captain Jiang, was I wrong? He admitted it himself! —— Qin Feng, just wait for your execution by firing squad!"
Jiang Min was still doubtful.
But since the "murderer" had admitted it, they could only arrest him first and interrogate him later.
She waved her hand, and her subordinates immediately went to cuff Qin Feng.
"Hold on a moment."
Qin Feng took out a special wooden token and handed it to Jiang Min, saying, "He killed the Dragon Slayer Daoist because he wanted to kill me, and I killed Qian Tianao because he hired assassins to kill Mu Jiangyue of the Mu Family."
Jiang Min looked at the token and was taken aback for a moment, her brows slowly furrowing.
The token wasn't large.
Engraved on it was an incredibly lifelike flying dragon.
It looked extremely imposing.
After examining the token, her attitude became respectful as she handed it back to Qin Feng and said, "Mr. Qin, do you have substantial evidence?"
"Can their words serve as evidence?"
Qin Feng looked towards Liang Jiuxiang and the others.
He had heard from the Poisonous Insect King, White Ghost, that it was also these few individuals who had brought the Dragon Crystal Stone to ask him to come out of seclusion.
"Them..."
Jiang Min's brow furrowed.
The individuals Qin Feng mentioned were among the top figures in the Southwest; naturally, their words carried weight, but they still couldn't serve as concrete evidence.
At that moment.
Liang Jiuxiang stepped forward and said, "I have evidence; Qian Tianao was the mastermind!!"
Everyone turned to look at him.
He promptly took out a recording pen.
Inside it were recordings of the entire secret meeting of the Six Kings and the conversation soliciting the Poisonous Insect King, White Ghost, to kill Qin Feng and Mu Jiangyue in Xiangnan.
There was no other way.
He was always cautious in his affairs, and when Qian Tianao had invited him to the "Six Kings' secret meeting," he suspected it wasn't for anything good and discreetly recorded it.
Under the current circumstances.
He had no choice but to side with Qin Feng.
Upon seeing this, Jiang Min asked Qin Feng, "Do you need our assistance?"
"No need, you all go ahead! Later on, the bodies, along with the relevant individuals, will be delivered to you for processing," Qin Feng said.
"Alright, we won't disturb Mr. Qin any longer, we'll withdraw,"
Jiang Min said.
"Withdraw?!
Old Sir Qian was taken aback for a moment, suddenly panicked, and hurriedly said, "Captain Jiang, you can't handle the case like this! At the very least, you should arrest him for interrogation first, otherwise, I'll accuse you of dereliction of duty and corruption!!"
"Mr. Qin has the 'Dragon Card'; under circumstances of sufficient evidence, he has the right to deal with any case independently and then hand it over to us,"
Jiang Min stated.
Dragon Card?!
Everyone's eyes widened in surprise.
They had heard of the "Dragon Card."
It was said.
Only those who have made significant contributions for the higher-ups could qualify for a "Dragon Card."
It was akin to the ancient Yellow Robe or the Imperial Sword.
Possessing it.
One could "judge" criminals!
Very quickly.
Jiang Min and her team left.
On the way, many subordinates, curious, asked Jiang Min, "Captain Jiang, is that Dragon Card real? How can that young man possibly have a Dragon Card? Even across the entire Five Southwestern Provinces, there might not be one, right?"
"I've checked it; it's real."
Jiang Min said, looking distantly in the direction of Qin Feng, her eyes also filled with astonishment.
Her grandfather had fought on the battlefield for twenty years, achieving extraordinary feats, and only received a "Dragon Card" at seventy years old; and yet, this young man had one, who exactly is he?
On this side.
Once Jiang Min and her team had left, the scene fell eerily silent, so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
Qin Feng looked toward Old Sir Qian and asked again, "Now, do you have anything else to say?"
Thump!
Old Sir Qian knelt on the ground!
He now fully understood that he couldn't afford to offend the person before him!
"I am willing to offer up ten gold mountains and ten Jade Mountains from the Qian Family in exchange for the lives of the Qian Family," Old Sir Qian said as he heavily bowed his head to the ground.
