Chapter 100: Strange Death
"Please...kill me...I really don't know anything..."
Ye Liang frowned and waited for another five minutes.
Zhou Wenmao is still in this state.
What on earth is going on...
Ye Liang pulled out the silver needle and fell into deep thought.
It stands to reason that no ordinary person can survive one minute under the silver needle given by Tian Zhengqing, but five minutes have passed now.
What's more, Zhou Wenmao has no reason to conceal Lu Xinxia's information like this.
Recalling what Zhou Minghai said, Ye Liang became more and more weird the more he thought about it.
"Zhou Wenmao, where are Lu Xinxia?" Ye Liang asked coldly: "Tell me, if I only kill you, the Zhou family will be weak, but it will not perish."
"But if you insist on not telling me, the Zhou family will definitely die."
Zhou Wenmao shook his head in horror, his eyes empty: "I don't know, I really don't know... don't force me anymore..."
What happened to him...
Ye Liang frowned and began to analyze calmly.
Looking at his current state, it is almost impossible to get him to speak.
If I had known earlier, I would have brought Tian Zhengqing here...
Ye Liang made a "tsk" sound and took out a small black needle from his arms.
This thing is called the Dream Seizing Needle. It is a gadget developed by Tian Zhengqing. It is a fusion of various ancient and foreign hypnosis techniques.
Extremely expensive, but very useful.
Ye Liang gently inserted it into Zhou Wenmao's neck. In a moment, Zhou Wenmao closed his eyes and fell asleep.
Ye Liang called out: "Wake up."
Zhou Wenmao's eyes slowly opened, his eyes dull and hollow, as if he had lost his soul.
"May I have your name."
"Zhou Wenmao."
"How did Lu Donghai die?"
Zhou Wenmao told the story in detail, and Ye Liang understood almost everything.
Well, it works... Ye Liang took a deep breath and asked: "Where is Lu Xinxia now? Is she still alive?"
After the words fell, Zhou Wenmao's whole body trembled.
Then, the color of his pupils was turning white bit by bit at a speed visible to the naked eye.
It's like a white wave is drowning the black.
The corners of his mouth were trembling in an exaggerated manner.
"What's going on?" Ye Liang quickly checked Zhou Wenmao's pulse, his pupils shrinking sharply.
His vitality is disappearing rapidly!
"Yellow...hair...black...limo..."
"The moon...isn't...isn't..."
"Nothing?" Ye Liang asked anxiously.
However, Zhou Wenmao did not say the next word until the end.
The mouth was still slightly open, the entire pupils disappeared, leaving only a strange pale color in the eye sockets.
He is dead...
Ye Liangliang was agitated, and the corners of his eyes trembled slightly.
"What's going on..."
After a long time, he calmed down and called Tian Zhengqing.
Within half an hour, Tian Zhengqing arrived at the scene and was a little surprised to see Zhou Wenmao's death.
"I have never seen anyone die like this." Tian Zhengqing said.
Ye Liang nodded. He had been on the battlefield for five years and had seen too many dead people, but he had never seen anything like this...
It's so weird.
"Let's take him back first." Ye Liang sighed and said, "Then we will find professional people to study and study what is going on."
Tian Zhengqing nodded and directed the people from the war department to pack up his body.
When no one was around, Tian Zhengqing asked: "Brother, what exactly are you asking? How did he become like this?"
Ye Liang frowned and said, "I didn't ask anything special. I just asked about the whereabouts of my adopted sister."
"It shouldn't be..." Tian Zhengqing said: "Will the whereabouts of a little girl cause such a big irritation to him?"
"I don't know." Ye Liang shook his head and said, "But now it seems that the whereabouts of my adopted sister is not simple."
Saying that, Ye Liang showed a wry smile: "In other words, maybe she is still alive."
Tian Zhengqing blinked and asked: "Brother, is this a good thing or a bad thing..."
"Well..." Ye Liang pondered for a moment and said, "I will find her, I will definitely."
"So, this can barely be considered good news."
The wind blew through the mountain road, blowing the black hair scattered on Ye Liang's forehead.
His face was expressionless, with no sign of sadness or joy.
…
Overnight, the structure of Yuncheng changed drastically.
Four major families, three major families declined at the same time, becoming the lowest-ranking families overnight.
News that the Ministry of War had seized the properties of three major families were popping up one after another like mushrooms after a rain.
In the past, because they controlled public opinion and blocked information, most people didn't know much about the filthiness of the three major families.
The things they had done were also exposed one by one.
Overnight, the reputation of the three major families dropped sharply.
The Lin family has become the profiteer in this great change. As the only big family that has not been exposed, their industry will definitely be greatly welcomed by consumers.
These are all things for later.
When the matter came to an end, Ye Liang returned to Shicheng and knocked on the door of Chu Rou's house.
When Chu Rou saw him for the first time, she couldn't help but show a hint of joy, and then the joy disappeared, and he showed a reproachful expression.
"I've been here for a few days, and I'm just back now!"
"I..." Ye Liang was speechless.
The two of them were frozen at the door for a few seconds. Finally, Chu Rou smiled and said, "Okay, I know you are busy with work, so come in."
With that said, she pulled Ye Liang in.
"You didn't even call me in advance to tell me, and I didn't even cook your food."
"I'll cook some noodles for you to eat, and we'll make do with it for a while."
Ye Liang had a smile on his face and said, "Thank you, wife."
At the dinner table, Tao'er looked very energetic and kept introducing to Ye Liang the paintings she drew in the kindergarten today.
Ye Liang smiled happily, thinking that Tao'er would soon be in elementary school.
"Ye Liang." Chu Rou asked with a smile: "Do you think it is necessary to enroll your child in a preschool education class? I see that many children are attending it now."
"What kind of retribution is there? The child is not that old yet." Ye Liang said with a smile: "Tao'er is still so young, so she should play more."
"Dad is right!"
Taoer smiled happily,
Chu Rou was also smiling. In fact, she thought so in her heart.
After finishing the meal, Chu Rou suddenly said: "Ye Liang, during your absence, I went to find someone from my class who is from our Chu family's company."
"I think although we have money now, it's still good to have multiple incomes."
Ye Liang nodded without objection.
He knew that Chu Rou was a career-minded girl and she could not sit still at home.
"I'll take you to work tomorrow!"
"No need." Chu Rou looked embarrassed and said hesitantly: "I made an appointment to give a ride to a colleague to work together tomorrow."
After a while, she added: "I didn't know you were coming back today, so I made an appointment with her."
