Meeting A Demonic Cultivator, Even God Cries

Lichun gnashed his teeth with anger when he heard the name, as if he wished he could eat the other person alive.

Gu Xizhou and Fang Zhi both thought: As expected, Yan Lichun despises Liao Jun.
The motive is very clearcut.

“Did he do something shameless once again?” Yan Lichun was curious. 

Gu Xizhou glanced at him and said, “He’s dead.”

“Dead?”

Yan Lichun was stunned.
He was apparently completely unaware of Liao Jun’s death, but then his eyes sharpened with pleasure.
“Persisting in evil brings about self destruction!”

“The murderer’s technique was very specialized.
It should’ve been a hitman.
And recently, you’ve made several large money transfers…” 

Gu Xizhou hadn’t finished his sentence when Yan Lichun interrupted him.
“Half a year ago my company was facing bankruptcy.
I put up my house and car as collateral to borrow from a loan shark.
This money is all still the interest on that.
Our chat record is still on my phone.”

Yan Lichun pulled out his phone and turned it on, turning it toward Gu Xizhou and Fang Zhi.
He said, “I know, the police suspect me, but I really didn’t do it.”

“If I really went bankrupt, I might have taken a knife and done away with him, but now I’m not poor.
My game earned 1 billion the first month on the market, and although I only have 5% shares of my company, that’s still tens of millions of yuan, even up to 100 million, in a year.”

Yan Lichun defended himself strongly and gave an earnest analysis.
As he spoke he began to get emotional, and his neck grew red.
“I tell you, it’s completely unnecessary for me to kill him.
I earned so much money, so why on earth would I still kill him? I don’t want to go to prison!” 

Gu Xizhou looked at Yan Lichun’s phone.
It really did show him talking about repaying several people.
Furthermore, the dates and the amounts of money corresponded with the transfer records they dug up.
It didn’t look fake.

Gu Xizhou saw that Yan Lichun was getting agitated and coughed into his fist.
He said, “Don’t get worked up.
It’s just a normal line of inquiry, nothing more.”

“Ai… I know, I know.” Yan Lichun calmed down.
“Anyway, I didn’t kill anyone, so I’m not afraid of your investigation, and I’m not afraid of my own shadow.”

At this time, Yan Lichun’s office telephone rang.
They didn’t know who called, but after Yan Lichun answered the phone, he only said, “Ok ok ok, I’ll go right away!” 

Gu Xizhou turned to look at Yan Lichun, and Yan Lichun immediately answered, “My company’s big boss came.
I need to go out…”

“Oh.”

Gu Xizhou didn’t block him.
Yan Lichun really was suspicious, but Gu Xizhou couldn’t figure out one problem.
If he hired a killer and wanted to murder Liao Jun, he should’ve known after the first day that the victim wasn’t Liao Jun, but instead it was Liao Jun’s Didi, Liao Shuang.
Why would he wait a few days before going to the Liao house to try to kill him?

Yan Lichun tidied his outfit and went out.
Gu Xizhou heard Yan Lichun’s voice from outside the door.
“President Si, you’ve arrived!” 

“En.”

A voice hummed coldly.

President Si?

Gu Xizhou and Fang Zhi glanced at each other.
It wouldn’t be the President Si they’re thinking of, right? 

Gu Xizhou subconsciously turned to look at the open door of the office.
He saw two indistinct figures together.
Finally, when the other person stepped forward, he clearly saw their appearance.

The man’s handsome features were slightly twisted.
When he saw Gu Xizhou, astonishment flashed through his eyes.

“Why are you here?” asked a crisp voice, surprised.

Gu Xizhou and the man stared at each other.
Gu Xizhou: “…That’s what I want to ask.” 

“President Si, you know them?” Yan Lichun was also surprised.
He didn’t know what was going on.

“This wouldn’t also be one of the companies you invest in, right?” Gu Xizhou asked, frowning.

Si Yu nodded faintly.
“Last time I told you I was attending a meeting.
It was here.”

“Dang…” Gu Xizhou looked at Si Yu strangely and said, “How come I see you wherever I go.” 

Si Yu looked surprised to hear this and appeared to seriously ponder this issue.
After a moment, he answered, “Maybe it’s because I want to see you.”

Gu Xizhou: “???”

Seeing Gu Xizhou’s surprised expression, Si Yu laughed.
“I’m joking.”

After chatting for a bit, Gu Xizhou motioned to Fang Zhi and left with him. 

The two people got in the car.
Fang Zhi propped his hand on his chin.
“If it’s not him, then who else wanted to kill Liao Jun?”

“It’s not necessarily Liao Jun!” Gu Xizhou suddenly slapped his head.
“How did I not realize it earlier! Liao Shuang misled me!”

Fang Zhi was at a loss.
“Not Liao Jun… Liao Shuang?”

“Maybe we should change our line of thinking.
The other person initially wanted to kill Liao Shaung, and killed Liao Jun instead by mistake because at this time, Liao Shuang assumed his Gege’s identity.
The hired killer thought Liao Shuang died, so the matter was settled.
However, several days later the hired killer realized they killed the wrong person, so the killer reappeared.
They wanted to kill Liao Shuang! 

“But… doesn’t this mean that someone else discovered that the victim was Liao Jun and not Liao Shuang before us?

“No, there is someone else.
She may not be able to tell Liao Jun from Liao Shuang, but Liao Shuang has a fatal flaw.”

“Fatal flaw?”

Gu Xizhou realized Fang Zhi was confused and explained.
“Liao Jun’s wife, He Yunyun.
He Yunyun discussed divorce with Liao Jun, so it’s necessary to discuss the distribution of the family’s assets.
However, Liao Shuang didn’t know how much his Gege had, and when discussing the distribution, he would definitely expose himself.”
