Chapter 876: Conjecture
“I asked. It’s not good.”
Zong Yanxiu was worried. “The doctor said that he was poisoned. It was a heart attack caused by the poison. If he doesn’t wake up within three days, he’s basically hopeless.”
“Poisoned?”
Tan Jinsui was stunned. He did not expect such a thing.
Su Cha asked, “How did he get poisoned?”
“He was bitten by an unknown thing. There was a wound on his chest all over. The doctor deduced that it was some kind of poisonous worm, but they did not know what kind of worm it was. They only knew that the poison came from there.”
Worm?
Su Cha s.h.i.+vered and a cold light flashed in her eyes.
Usually, the places they lived in were carefully maintained. How could there coincidentally be bugs?
And it was a poisonous worm.
“Worm?”
As expected, Tan Jinsui found it strange. “How can it be so ridiculous? Lian Xiaofeng was so unlucky as to be bitten by a worm?”
“I don’t know the specifics. Lian Ye and the rest are investigating… But… they said that Lian Chi has been acting strange recently. Some time ago, at Ruan…”
When he mentioned this name, a hint of sadness flashed in Zong Yanxiu’s eyes. “At the funeral, Lian Chi went back early. After he went back, he went to Lian Xiaofeng’s room to get some doc.u.ments. Lian Nuo saw it. Lian Chi said that Lian Xiaofeng asked him to take it. Lian Nuo told Lian Xiaofeng about this matter. In the end, when he went back that night, Lian Xiaofeng scolded Lian Chi. They did not know what happened later. Lian Xiaofeng spoke to Lian Chi alone in the study room. However, Lian Xiaofeng’s expression was ugly before he entered the study room. He also cursed Lian Chi, so they speculated.”
Tan Jinsui was deep in thought. “…Doc.u.ments? The doc.u.ments Lian Xiaofeng placed in his room must be very important, right?”
Zong Yanxiu nodded. “Perhaps. Lian Ye said that Lian Chi hasn’t been back for the past few days. They don’t know what he’s busy with. At first, they suspected that Lian Xiaofeng’s accident had something to do with Lian Chi, but Lian Chi didn’t come back. Moreover, Lian Xiaofeng was poisoned in such a ridiculous way. There’s no news about Lian Chi for the time being. He was also notified about Lian Xiaofeng’s accident. He will probably rush to the hospital soon.”
Su Cha narrowed her eyes.
Others might not know, but Su Cha knew that there were still people in this world who could do such a thing.
Greya.
If she raised Gu worms, she could control them.
Killing Lian Xiaofeng silently was too easy.
But…
Why did she help Lian Chi? Did she know Lian Chi?
Su Cha recalled the bug that followed Lian Chi the last time they met. In this way, it could only belong to Greya.
Greya had told Su Cha that something might happen to Lian Xiaofeng…
Could it be that the mastermind was Lian Chi?
Actually, this logic chain was also valid. If Lian Chi was from the Killing Alliance…
That might be true.
If Lian Chi was from the Killing Alliance, Su Cha thought of what had happened recently. Only the Vice Alliance Master of the Killing Alliance was missing.
Vice Alliance Master.
This was a shocking matter. Su Cha could not be sure. She had to have solid evidence.
Most importantly, how did Lian Chi become the Vice Alliance Master of the Killing Alliance?
Su Cha suddenly thought of something and asked, “Uncle Tan, you said that Lian Chi has been studying overseas. He has been in America for so many years, right?”
Tan Jinsui was stunned for a moment before he nodded. “Almost. It’s said that they also do business in other countries, but they basically have their base in the United States.”
