Shengjing Noble

Chapter 315 The mastermind behind the scenes

When everyone heard this, their faces changed drastically.

"No way? She also died of poisoning. Does that mean she didn't do it?"

"Is she framed again? Did the old man wrongly accuse her? Who did this?"

"Oh my God, the murderer hasn't been caught yet? I can't sleep well until the truth of this case comes to light."

……

Seeing everyone so anxious, Feng Piaopiao curled her lips.

She stepped forward and said, "It seems that she knew she was exposed. Rather than being beaten to death by the master, she might as well commit suicide by taking poison. Alas, this person is really funny. She was clearly trying to harm others, but in the end she died the same way. In the end, harming others will eventually harm yourself, right, Miss Su?"

Hearing this, Su Lanyin met her provocative and contemptuous gaze and raised her chin slightly.

"Yes, harming others will eventually harm yourself. However, there is another saying: If you don't want others to know, then don't do it yourself. There is a murderer who has been caught in the prison. As far as I know, he has confessed everything. Tomorrow morning in the court, we will see who is the mastermind behind the scenes."

After saying that, she raised an eyebrow at Feng Piaopiao, turned around and left.

"What? Is there really someone else who murdered me? It seems like Jiang Xuan was really wronged!"

"Three lives were killed at once! The murderer in the prison was caught on the spot, and what he confessed must be the truth!"

"I'm really looking forward to it. Who is the murderer?"

……

The corners of Feng Piaopiao's mouth gradually fell as she looked at the direction Su Lanyin left. Even though she appeared calm on the surface, the handkerchief she was pulling tightly in her hand betrayed her inner nervousness.

No... Kang Lu must not tell the truth!

She panicked and made a decision immediately!

……

It's quiet at night.

A dark shadow quietly sneaked into the dungeon of the county government office.

Less than an incense stick of time later, the black shadow left the dungeon again and headed towards Kang Mansion.

He climbed over the wall and landed directly in Feng Piaopiao's courtyard.

The masked killer in black walked straight to the end of the yard, where a graceful woman was standing in the corridor with her back to him, waiting.

Hearing the footsteps, Feng Piaopiao turned around and asked, "Is it done?"

"It's done. Where's the money?" the man asked in a hoarse, low voice.

"Take the money and get away. Don't let me see you again!"

Feng Piaopiao disdainfully pulled out a stack of banknotes from her sleeve and threw it at the masked man's feet.

"Thank you."

The man picked up the banknote, turned around and disappeared into the night, as if he had never appeared.

Feng Piaopiao returned to the room, her eyes full of greed and a ferocious smile on her lips.

The woman sitting in the house turned and looked at her with a hint of mockery in her eyes.

"Are you sure everything will go smoothly this time?" Yu Hui put down the teacup in her hand and asked coldly.

Feng Piaopiao had arrogance in her eyes. She sat down on the chair, crossed her legs and said, "Of course, I spent a lot of money to find this expert from the martial arts world."

"Hmph... that's better."

"It's all finally over! After this case is over, I can reveal the affair between Jiang Xuan and Kang Chenxi to that old man. When the time comes, he will be furious and will definitely drive Kang Chenxi out of the Kang family. Then my son will be the only one to inherit the Kang family, hahahaha..."

Feng Piaopiao has almost seen herself owning the entire Kang family's wealth. Her eyes are full of excitement and excitement, and she can't wait for that day to come.

Yu Hui was much calmer. She looked at the teacup in her hand, with a cold and sarcastic smile on her lips.

"As long as I can kill that old man, I don't care what you do, including everything in the Kang family. I don't care."

"Even if you care, what can you do? You don't have a son, so you are destined to be alone in this life. But what you want is freedom, and I will grant you that. So I am also half your benefactor, right?"

"You were the one who did this from beginning to end. I just told you what happened between Jiang Xuan and Kang Chenxi. So, you are not my benefactor. Instead, you should thank me."

After Yu Hui finished speaking, she put down the teacup on the table, then stood up and walked out.

When she reached the door, she stopped and said without looking back, "From now on, take care of yourself."

The door was opened and Yu Hui strode away. Feng Piaopiao looked at the silent darkness outside the door, propped up her head on the table, with a disdainful smile in her eyes.

"Just pretending to be noble... they are all bitches!"

……

The next day.

The county magistrate was hearing the case of Muzi's murder.

The gavel slammed and the county magistrate shouted, "Come here, bring up the murderer Kang Lu!"

A jailer ran up in a panic, knelt on one knee and reported: "It's bad, sir, a prisoner in the prison hanged himself, and it is suspected that he is the real murderer who killed Muzi's maid!"

"What?" The county magistrate was shocked and stood up, slamming the table. "How can this be absurd? How dare you commit suicide out of fear of punishment?"

"Sir, when I found the body, it had been dead for a long time!"

"Quick, bring the body up for identification!"

Outside the court, people were talking about it for a while after hearing that Kang Lu committed suicide out of fear of punishment.

"Why would he commit suicide out of fear of punishment? Wouldn't it be impossible to find the mastermind behind this?"

"I heard that it was Kang Chenxi's stepmother, her name was Jiang Xuan, who also committed suicide by taking poison yesterday."

"How come they all committed suicide? Isn't this too much of a coincidence? It sounds creepy!"

"Is it possible that there are still doubts in this case? Why would they choose to commit suicide for no reason? Could it be that they are trying to silence the witnesses?"

……

For a time, there were many different opinions, and the people were all worried, fearing that the murderer was still lurking in Qi County.

Feng Piaopiao, who was standing aside accompanying Mr. Kang to attend the trial, had a triumphant smile on her face and was extremely delighted in her heart.

That’s great, there is no evidence against her and this case will never be linked to her.

As for Jiang Xuan, she can only bear the crime of being a murderer and sleep in the ground forever!

Just as he was feeling proud, he saw several jailers carrying up a corpse covered with a white cloth.

The people stretched their necks to look inside, and the county magistrate was even more curious.

"Open it!"

"Yes!"

The jailer lifted the white cloth, and saw an extremely distorted face. The complexion was blue and purple, the tongue was all exposed, and the eyes were open. It looked terrifying and hideous.

Many people took one look and then looked away, not daring to look again.

The county magistrate was stunned, and pointed at the body and asked, "Who is this?"

The county magistrate was present when Kang Lu was arrested, so he naturally knew who the real murderer was.

The corpse in front of him was obviously taller and stronger than Kang Lu, and his face was not similar at all. One could tell them apart with a careful look.

As soon as these words were spoken, Feng Piaopiao, who had originally refused to look because she thought it was unlucky, immediately tiptoed to look at the corpse in the middle of the courtroom.

The old man sitting in the chair could clearly see the appearance of the deceased.

He was the head of the family, and he still had an impression of the servants who worked in the eldest lady's room afterwards.

He knew at a glance whether it was Kang Lu.

Realizing that it was a stranger, the old man said angrily: "What's going on? Didn't they say that the murderer was Kang Lu? Who is this person?"
