Officer Chen Changxing looked at the body in front of him with some reluctance. After confirming the cause of death, he waved his hand and asked his men to spread a white cloth, which was considered to be the last bit of dignity for this unfortunate young boy.

The time of death was calculated according to the coagulation time of blood, which was about seven hours ago. The cause of death was shock caused by excessive bleeding. There were five gunshot wounds, one in the chest, one in the neck, one in the lower body, and two in the head. It was a very cruel but efficient shooting method, basically aimed at killing the boy.

The person who called the police was a girl named Xiao Liyin. It is said that when she came to visit the deceased, because there was no response for a long time, she was worried and used the spare key to open the door. Then she saw a horrifying scene and forced to call the police before fainting. Now she has been sent to the hospital for emergency treatment.

Chen Changxing looked at the red entrance and then looked at the chaotic scene. Based on years of experience, it can be basically determined that it was a burglary. In Linhai, a land with a strong underworld background, it is very common. The first case he handled was also a robbery.

But with his rich criminal investigation experience over the years, Chen Changxing still instinctively felt that something was wrong. After all, the deceased was just a student and didn't have much property here. Wouldn't the best solution be to kidnap him and then threaten his parents to pay a ransom? Killing him so violently would only make people suspicious.

"Boss... there's a clue in the computer.……"

When Chen Changxing was looking around suspiciously, trying to get a clue, his subordinates brought a breakthrough and handed over a freshly printed document. Chen Changxing immediately snatched it and looked at the message on it. The thick fog in his mind was instantly dispelled. It was indeed related to Hell Wednesday!

"Apply for a subpoena immediately and summon the Zhao family... and protect the parents of the deceased!"

"Boss?!"

"Haha, we might be in big trouble this time!"

Chen Changxing gave instructions neatly, asking his men to immediately call Zhao Linyi, the head of the cornerstone company, for questioning, and to protect the parents of the deceased Liu Qingshu, Liu Jilin and Kong Ying from Qilu Investment Office.

This was not a robbery, but a premeditated killing by intimidation. Chen Changxing judged that it must have been the Wednesday of Hell three weeks ago that caused the conflict between the partners and led to the murder. Sure enough, interests are the root of all tragedies!

…………

Zhao Linyi pinched his philtrum, and an unstoppable fatigue surged to his forehead, but he had no intention of taking a rest. It is said that when the wind is against you, everything will go wrong. Now he can be said to be surrounded by bad luck.

Hedging risks, stabilizing funds, how to appease investors, how to maintain overseas transactions in the face of the collapse of the current situation, these tasks and challenges made Zhao Linyi feel powerless.

On the other hand, the mortal enemy Linhai Branch has revived in this wave, and is thriving. The situation is very good, and it has also stolen a lot of limelight, which makes people envious and jealous.

Zhao Linyi sighed and wondered if he had made a wrong choice in the beginning, breaking with the Linhai Branch and being hostile to the Nangong family. And what Li Xinzhi said that day was true, he has become the head of the cornerstone company, and he is no longer qualified to retreat.

"master!"

"What's wrong? Why are you so flustered?"

But when Zhao Linyi sighed and wanted to take a break, the housekeeper Yan Li suddenly rushed in and called him with a horrified expression. Zhao Linyi felt something was wrong, but still forced himself to calm down and asked the housekeeper why he was so flustered.

"Police, the police are coming!"

"What?!"

Yan Li brought some very bad news. The police came to the door? What was the reason? Zhao Linyi's mind, which was almost at its limit, was spinning wildly. He had done so many bad things that he didn't know what it was.

"Hello, is this Mr. Zhao? I am Zhao Changxing from the Linhai Police Station. I suspect you are involved in Liu Qingshu's death. Can you come with me?"

"Liu Qingshu? Liu Jilin's son? ?! He's dead?!"

Before Zhao Linyi could react, Zhao Changxing, wearing a black police uniform and buttoned up, walked in, showing a summons, looking at Zhao Linyi with a sharp and suspicious look, and neatly conveyed his purpose.

Zhao Linyi's head was blown up like a bolt from the blue.

How could Liu Jilin's son die, and what did it have to do with him? Suddenly, he seemed to think that Liu Jilin's son Liu Qingshu seemed to have found Qin Yuping and asked to marry Changjin's illegitimate daughter Ji Qingjue.

……

"……!!!"

That terrifying shadow suddenly descended again, and the fear that Li Xinzhi brought to him suddenly came again. Zhao Linyi thought that it must be him who made a move to frame himself and kill his love rival at the same time.

And this move was really vicious. First of all, as an important fundraising partner of the Zhao family, Qilu Fund-raising Office had a gap with each other because the cornerstone had not yet reached the predetermined fundraising amount, and he had previously planned to forcibly seize Ji Qingjue as a marriage partner.

Now that Liu Qingshu was killed, the first person to be suspected was indeed himself. Even if he could clarify it, the suspicion and police surveillance would inevitably make Zhao Linyi's industry worse. The key point was that Zhao Linyi felt that Li Xinzhi must have been prepared for this move, and that the chain of evidence would not point to him, but to himself.

"Mr. Zhao?"

"I...I know……"

Zhao Changxing looked at Zhao Linyi who suddenly lowered his head, and asked him with some concern. Zhao Linyi raised his head with a face full of hatred, like a beast that was cornered, anger had already filled his brain.

But Zhao Linyi still forced himself to calm down. He had to get through this difficult time first, and then... he had to be prepared to put everything on the line to destroy the monster Li Xinzhi. As he said, they were already in a life-and-death relationship. If he continued to think about easing the situation, he would only be completely eaten by him.

After regaining his normal look and preparing to go to the police station with Zhao Changxing, Zhao Linyi gave Yan Li a look and asked him to contact the person behind the scenes.

…………

Nangong Nuoya was a little anxious, running around in the Gusu Building. Unlike the heavy atmosphere before, the Linhai Branch, which had been reborn from the ashes, had recovered its vitality. It was a miracle that it could still maintain growth in this desperate economic crisis.

In the face of the respectful nods and greetings from her subordinates, Nangong Nuoya could only casually return the greetings and immediately went straight to Li Xinzhi's office, because of what had just happened, she really needed to talk to the second-in-command of the Linhai Branch.

Soon Nangong Nuoya rushed to the door, took a short rest, and stopped her heart from beating. She pushed open the door and saw Li Xinzhi still sitting in the office. He hadn't returned to their common home for almost three days and had been working in the Linhai Branch.

Li Xinzhi was wearing black-framed glasses and seemed to be looking at the stock market situation. The monitor next to him was filled with complex formulas and probabilities. He seemed to be calculating the next market situation in real time.

The dining table next to it was piled with milk spirit energy drinks and leftover fast food. The small bed used for rest had no signs of being moved. Li Xinzhi worked like a monster for three days without rest or sleep, micromanaging the Linhai branch in this room.

""Senior? You're back?"

Li Xinzhi raised his head a little slowly, because his attention was all on the screen. He didn't react until the heavy sound of the door was locked. Then he welcomed Nangong Nuoya's return with a forced smile on his face.

Because of the incident on Hell Wednesday and the revival of the Linhai branch, Nangong Nuoya was called back to the family and asked to explain the situation. Although he was dissatisfied with the family who stood by and watched, he now urgently needed the support of the Nangong family in terms of relationships and connections.

After Nangong Nuoya temporarily entrusted the operating rights to Li Xin, he went to Zhongjingdu in Zhongjingchuan, which is the Nangong family's main home, under the protection of Wei Jingzhong to explain the situation.

Because of various things, it took a week to complete the work, and Nangong Nuoya just got off the plane and ran directly back to his base camp.

"Well, sorry, I came back late. Grandpa and Dad had some troubles, but I agreed to give you the support you should give later. I'm sorry for your trouble. Believe it."

Nangong Nuoya took off his coat and hung it on the hanger while explaining the situation. Although this trip back to his hometown was not pleasant, he finally had the confidence to make the old man take a step back, and his father Nangong Qingji finally smiled.

"That's great, senior...how is Ye Hai?"

Li Xinzhi smiled and accepted Nangong Nuoya's response, but thinking of his childhood sweetheart Nangong Ye Hai, who had a lifetime of fate, he couldn't help but ask about his condition.

"My sister...seems to have suffered a lot of losses in Hell Wednesday and is missing.……"

Nangong Nuoya pondered for a moment and told the situation. Based on her understanding of Nangong Yehai, she must have hidden there to plan a comeback after the defeat. Although she heard that she withdrew in time and recovered most of the losses, the defeat in Linhai still hit her prestige.

"So... it's time to talk to her.……"

Li Xinzhi listens to Nangong Nuo���Having said that, he heaved a sigh of relief. After all, only in this way would it be necessary for him and Nangong Yehai to have a discussion about cooperation. In his own plan, Nangong Yehai was a necessary helper.

"Xinzhi... Qingjue will be worried if you do this.……"

After chatting about family matters, Nangong Nuoya saw Li Xinzhi like this and persuaded him with some concern. She could feel that the boy was gradually entering an extreme state.

That terrifying aura could not be removed from him after that day. Except when he was with Ji Qingjue, he slightly recovered his past aura.

"It's okay. Qingjue has been very busy recently. I asked Nanjin to give her more work. It's almost the end of the year. She has been sleeping in the company for training recently.……"

Li Xinzhi was a little confused when he talked about the arrangement for Ji Qingjue. Because he was about to start doing big things, he naturally couldn't leave a weak person around.

He also didn't want his lover to see his cruel side. In addition, Li Xinzhi still felt that the betrayal of his parents that day still left a lot of shadows on the little hedgehog, so he made these arrangements.

"Uncle Zhao was just summoned on suspicion of murder.……"

Seeing Li Xinzhi like this, Nangong Nuoya sighed, and then said the information she had just learned, so she was in such a hurry, and rushed to the company to discuss with Li Xinzhi as soon as she got off the plane.

"So, it seems that Mr. Zhao's camp is not stable either."

Li Xinzhi sighed calmly. Things developed just as he expected. He deliberately set up a trap to lead everything to Zhao Linyi. Of course, he thought that this would not be able to defeat Zhao Linyi all at once, but was just a calculation to force him to give it a try.

"Xinzhi, it was you who did it, right? You killed Liu Qingshu and married Wa to Uncle Zhao, right?"

Nangong Nuoya looked at Li Xinzhi, and after a long silence, he seriously expressed his guess, but looking at Li Xinzhi's expression, he also understood the answer.

"…………"

"Don't make excuses to deny it. I know you secretly let go... the killer who killed Uncle Yan that day."

Li Xinzhi subconsciously fell silent in the face of Nangong Nuoya's questioning. When he was thinking about how to make excuses, Nangong Nuoya's tough voice came, forcing him to tell the truth without mercy.

"Yes, as expected, nothing can be hidden from the senior."

Li Xinzhi showed a defeated expression and admitted the fact. He wanted to complete his goal alone, but he didn't expect to be discovered by Nangong Nuoya.

But there was nothing he could do about it, because this little devil senior was Nangong Yehai's sister, and the two sisters were completely equal in strength.

"Idiot... Didn't we agree to be accomplices? Why did you hide it from me?"

"senior……"

When Li Xinzhi closed his eyes and prepared to wait for Nangong Nuoya's anger and curses, his body was hugged. Nangong Nuoya rushed forward, hugged Li Xinzhi tightly, and cursed with resentment.

I thought Nangong Nuoya was angry that I had brought trouble to the Linhai branch, but I didn't expect that she was complaining that I did something bad without taking her with me. Li Xinzhi was somewhat helpless and let her vent.

"Senior, I don't want to dirty your hands……"

Li Xinzhi gently stated his reasons.���I don't want to drag a kind girl like Gong Nuoya down with me. After all, this is a road of no return. If I make the wrong choice, I will pay the price with blood. I can't worry about him.

"I'm not a princess who needs protection! When the man I love is on the road of no return, I won't ignore him!"

Nangong Nuoya left Li Xinzhi's broad chest, tears in her eyes, and spoke her heart fiercely. She could feel that Li Xinzhi, the person she loved so much, was heading towards darkness and a road of no return.

"senior……"

Facing Nangong Nuoya's confession, Li Xinzhi was stunned and didn't know how to deal with it. He was not a fool. How could he not know Nangong Nuoya's love for him and that people around him secretly called him son-in-law?

But Li Xinzhi had already decided to spend his life with Ji Qingjue, so he naturally would not accept Nangong Nuoya's love casually. He knew Nangong Nuoya's life experience and really didn't want her to be cursed like her mother.

"Call me Nuoya! And, kiss me!"

Nangong Nuoya did not intend to let Li Xinzhi go. She let him dodge again, and after letting him call her name, she kissed him forcefully, with love and resentment.

Li Xinzhi's lips were taken away by Nangong Nuoya. Under her fierce and somewhat clumsy kiss, he gradually fell. Holding the girl who loved him, the two began to kiss passionately.

"Xinzhi, I like you. Even if I know that I am not the first in your heart, I still like you. I want to be by your side and never leave."

"Noah……"

After the two kissed enough, they left each other reluctantly. Nangong Nuoya looked at him with a dazed look and confessed that she had hidden in her heart for a long time. When

Li Xinzhi heard Nangong Nuoya's confession, he couldn't help but feel hot in his heart. A warm current hit him. Being loved was like this, it made people's heart beat. He couldn't help but call Nangong Nuoya's name.

"Hehe, you finally called me by my name.~……Xinzhi, do you really need to do this?"

Nangong Nuoya responded to the wood that finally moved her with joy and ridicule, but she still expressed her worries with worry, after all, this was too cruel.

"Noah, many things in this world are not as good as you think. If you hesitate, the price you pay is irreversible.……"

Li Xinzhi spoke his true feelings in a low voice. He also wanted to live a peaceful life, but the struggle was so cruel. Once it started, only the winner could survive, and the loser would lose everything.

Just like killing Liu Qingshu, if he hadn't been killed by chance, who knows what kind of tragedy Ji Qingjue would have suffered once his plan was realized. So he had to eliminate all the factors that were unfavorable to Ji Qingjue so that she could live a peaceful life.

"So... Then let's do it like our oath, I will accompany you, no matter what happens, I will not let you go!"

Nangong Nuoya saw that Li Xinzhi was determined, and said no more, but said to him, what Li Xinzhi said to her that day���The declaration of crime, like a boomerang, responded to him

"Nuoya!"

Li Xinzhi saw Nangong Nuoya say this, and wanted to refute anxiously, but was stopped by her slender fingers. Nangong Nuoya, with the same unyielding expression, made Li Xinzhi shut up.

"Aren't we accomplices? This is what you told me.~"~

With his signature little devil smile, Nangong Nuoya continued his declaration, hugged Li Xinzhi even harder, and caressed his hard-bearded face lovingly.

"Xinzhi...if you can't say it to Qingjue, just tell me, please hold me, let us become...accomplices in the crime of intertwining body and mind……"

With a breath of temptation, Nangong Nuoya extended an invitation to Li Xinzhi. Just now, she specially arranged for her subordinates not to approach this room, leaving the space for the two to communicate. Now that the atmosphere is so good, Nangong Nuoya has also decided to take a step further with Li Xinzhi and let the two of them form a deeper relationship.

"Noah... um……"

Li Xinzhi hesitated for only a moment before nodding his head. He picked up Nangong Nuoya like a princess, and the two of them kissed as they walked towards the resting bed in the room.

Until they were on the bed, they gradually removed each other's restraints so that the two of them could meet each other directly.

"I love you, Xinzhi, please hold me……"

Nangong Nuoya looked at Li Xinzhi who was lying on her with a dazed look in her eyes. After a passionate confession, she kissed him again. It was late at night and the cold wind outside the window was howling uncontrollably, but Nangong Nuoya knew that as long as Li Xinzhi held her, she would never feel lonely and cold again.
