Chapter 788: The Hidden Person

There was still a noise in the backyard of Bai Qiye’s house.

After Hualang saw Bai Laoba's head, he stood up and looked at Bai Yi who found the head and asked, "How did you think of checking the dry well?"

Bai Yi's expression was very haggard, and his eyes looked calm and dull. I don't know if it was because of what happened recently that he had not had a good sleep, or because his most loyal master was killed, so he was not very greedy for this world.

Bai Yi slightly raised his eyes and looked at Hualang, then said, "I... I remembered that the master's body was found in the dry well, and then I also thought about going to the dry well to take a look, but I really found my head inside."

Hualang did not agree with the reason Bai Yi said, because everyone knew that Bai Qi's body was found in a dry well, but after Bai Laoba died, everyone did not think of checking it in the dry well, but Bai Yi thought of why?

There must be something that Bai Yi knew about but Hua Lang and others didn't know about it, so Bai Yi could think of going to the dry well to take a look.

But what was Bai Yi knowing? Just asking him like this, I'm afraid he couldn't ask anything. Hua Lang stared at Bai Yi for a long time, but in the end there was no way, so he had to give up and know that thing for the time being.

At this time, Hualang turned to ask other questions.

"Do you know that Mr. Bai Qi was blackmailed by Bai Laoba?"

When Bai Yi heard Hua Lang suddenly ask this question, he stared at the boss and shook his head repeatedly: "No... I don't know, the master has never told me about this."

Bai Yi's eyes flashed a little. Hualang didn't believe that Bai Yi didn't know about this, so he asked again: "You really don't know?"

Bai Yi nodded repeatedly: "I don't know, how could the master tell me such a thing?"

There was nothing more to ask. Bao Zheng ordered people to pack up Bai Laoba's head and left Bai Qi's house with Hualang.

On the way back to the tent, Bao Zheng looked at Hua Lang and said, "Brother Hua, I think Bai Yi cannot not know about Bai Qi's blackmail being extorted by Bai Laoba. How could he be such a loyal person not know about this?"

Hua Lang nodded slightly, but he didn't understand. Now that Bai Qiye and Bai Laoba are both dead, even if he knows, no one will blame him. Why would he refuse to admit it?

Thinking of this, Hua Lang suddenly stopped. Everyone was surprised to see Hua Lang stop suddenly and asked what was wrong. Hua Lang didn't say anything, but his eyes were scattered. After a long time, he spoke: "Have you ever thought that Bai Qi was killed by Bai Laoba, and the person who killed Bai Laoba was to avenge Bai Qi?"

Hualang only said a simple sentence, but after listening to it, everyone exclaimed one after another and quickly understood the deeper meaning.

Bai Yi is the loyal servant of Bai Qi Master. He must have known some of Bai Qi Master’s secrets, such as the fact that Bai Laoba blackmailed Bai Qi Master. When he found out that Bai Qi Master was killed, he must have guessed that the murderer was Bai Laoba. So in order to avenge his master, he cruelly killed Bai Laoba, and cut Bai Laoba's head down and threw it into a dry well to pay tribute to Bai Qi Master's body.

In order to clear his suspicion, Bai Yi said that he didn't know about Bai Laoba's blackmailing Bai Qiye. In fact, he knew it.

Everyone thinks this must be the case.

But soon, everyone discovered the suspicion that Bai Laoba blackmailed Bai Qiye, and he should be the beneficiary. Why did he kill Bai Qiye?

Another thing is, if Bai Yi knew about this, how could he think that the murderer who killed Bai Qi was Bai Laoba? If Bai Laoba was killed, it would be more reasonable to know that the murderer was Bai Qi, because the person who was blackmailed was Bai Qi, and Bai Qi was the one who wanted to kill people.

Moreover, if Bai Yi wants to clear his suspicion, even if he put his head in a dry well, he doesn't need to run to discover it by himself.

There are many doubts. When Gongsun Ce and Bao Zheng raised these doubts, they looked at Hualang, hoping that Hualang could give some reasonable explanations.

Hua Lang pondered for a moment, then said, "This is indeed a suspicious point, but it is not impossible to explain. For example, why Bai Yi knew that the murderer who killed Bai Qi was Bai Laoba. Bai Qi was always blackmailed by Bai Laoba, so he must be overwhelmed. In order to get rid of Bai Laoba's blackmail, he thought about killing Bai Laoba. However, the incident may have leaked the news, or something unexpected happened during the murder. Bai Qi was unable to kill Bai Laoba, but was killed by Bai Laoba. Bai Yi might know Bai Qi's plan, so when he found that Bai Qi was killed, the first person he suspected was Bai Laoba."

Hua Lang's explanation is reasonable, but everyone raised a question, that is, since Bai Yi knew about Bai Qi's murder plan, why didn't he help Bai Qi when he was murdering? He should know that Bai Qi's physical strength is not as strong as Bai Laoba. Since he knew, he would be relieved to let Bai Qi kill alone?

What's more, the person Bai Qi killed was always wary of Mr. Bai Qi.

Hualang could not give a reasonable explanation for this, and Bai Yi personally discovered the head, so he could not give it either.

So at the end of the discussion, Hualang thought that the situation was very reasonable suddenly became full of questions, and even a little vulnerable.

And when they finished discussing these issues, they had already arrived at the tent set up at the entrance of the village.

At this time, a yamen runner rushed over. After seeing Bao Zheng and others, he immediately reported: "Brothers discovered the trace of Hu Zi. He was not far away from the village, but hid in a cave not far away."

After hearing this news, Bao Zheng, Hualang and others were very excited because Hu Zi's suspicion has always been very high. Now that he knows that he has not left the village and is hiding not far away, his suspicion will be even greater.

I'm afraid among these suspects, Hu Zi is the most suspicious, because he likes Niu Niu, but Niu Niu is forced to marry Bai Qiye. In order to save Niu Niu's happiness, he had no choice but to kill Bai Qiye.

Of course, this is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that he disappeared in the few days when Bai Qi was killed. Now he is found to be hiding near the village.

All the situations indicate that he is extremely likely to be the murderer.

Of course, not all situations, such as Bai Laoba's murder.

Logically speaking, Hu Zi and Bai Laoba have no grudges, but Bai Laoba was killed. How can I explain this?

Isn't the murderer alone?
