My Co-renting Lady Boss-Chapter 1661 - 1660: Could It Be Her?

Su Tianyu and the others felt embarrassed for not being able to help the Fu Family. For this meal, the Fu Family really bled a lot, but now...

After eating and drinking their fill, Wu Dao offered to drive Tang Ming back to school.

On the way, Wu Dao and Tang Ming sat in the back seat.

"Xiao Tang, do you know why I want to take you?"

Wu Dao looked at Tang Ming with a melancholy expression.

"Because of Wu Xiaoxia?"

Tang Ming smiled uncertainly.

"Smart!"

"Did you and she recognize each other?"

Tang Ming became interested.

"No, I don’t know how to recognize her."

Wu Dao shook his head. "I sent someone to follow and observe her. Although she is very much like Xiaoyu, I feel strange. I don’t know how to face her. The main thing is that the Wu Family promised that recluse, not to recognize Xiaoxia."

"So what do you mean, just drag it out like this?"

Tang Ming frowned uncertainly.

"I don’t know what to do either. Just leave it for now. As long as I know she’s doing well, I’ll be at ease."

Wu Dao nodded and said through gritted teeth, "I’m waiting for an opportunity, one that would allow us to accept each other without making that master mind."

"I get it, it’s got nothing to do with me anyway, you do as you please."

Tang Ming smiled indifferently.

"You... I want you to help take good care of her."

Wu Dao rolled his eyes at Tang Ming.

"Rest assured! Recently, I’ve helped her make a lot of money, directly or indirectly. It’s enough to keep her well-fed and clothed. You don’t have to worry."

Tang Ming nodded.

"Thank you."

Wu Dao gave Tang Ming a grateful look and then fell silent.

His intention was to directly go and recognize Wu Xiaoxia, but this decision was vetoed by Elder Wu, reasoning that there were too many involvements behind Wu Xiaoxia. Recognizing her without a certain person’s signal might not be good for her and the Wu Family.

Due to Elder Wu’s obstruction, Wu Dao could only suppress his desire to recognize, and then let Tang Ming take care of Wu Xiaoxia.

Returning to school, Tang Ming went back to the dormitory, went to sleep without putting today’s events in mind. However, the following days became out of control.

People from the Ming Group, Longye, and the Fu Family were continuously assassinated.

Since many people mysteriously died in public places, news and media started reporting these incidents, leaving the entire Imperial City restless and everyone anxious.

"Have you heard? Recently, there’s been a maniac killer in the Imperial City who’s killed a lot of people?"

During lunch on Friday, Shao Wuyou sat at the dining table, excitedly discussing the matter.

Li Xiaoli, Liu Mengting, Tang Ming, and others sat together. Besides Tang Ming, everyone else was engrossed in the topic.

"People die, so what? It’s no big deal. Thousands die every day; it’s normal!"

Tang Ming said disdainfully while eating.

"You can’t say that. It’s a maniac going on a random killing spree. Maybe we could be targeted while walking down the street."

Li Xiaoli said nervously, holding chopsticks, "The school has already issued a notice, advising students not to go out unnecessarily to avoid accidents."

"I heard this killer is brutal and twisted, killing with no warning or pattern, victims being male, female, elderly, and young, killing just for the sake of it."

Liu Mengting was apprehensive. Even though everyone had seen dead bodies before, this unknown fear was terrifying.

"Isn’t it somewhat patterned?"

Meng Xianjun looked at Tang Ming strangely, "Rumor has it, those killed are from the Ming Group, Long Ya, and the Fu Family."

"Really?"

Hearing this, Liu Mengting and Li Xiaoli both looked at Tang Ming.

"Don’t look at me like that. I have nothing to do with this." 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

Tang Ming quickly shook his head, "Actually, seeing their targets, I suspected myself, but I surely didn’t do it."

"That’s weird."

Li Xiaoli tilted her head, puzzled, "But this isn’t Tang Ming brother’s style, or else why would he kill everyone indiscriminately?"

"Exactly, I’m not that twisted."

Tang Ming nodded, "Anyway, don’t be nervous, if someone is delivering justice, it’s a good thing."

"You’re cruel, many killed were the elderly and children!"

Liu Mengting looked at Tang Ming dissatisfied.

"It’s not me ordering the kills, what can I do?"

Tang Ming said disdainfully, "Blame it on their incompetence, still unsuccessful after so long and deservedly they are killed."

"No, no! I heard on the police news they’re investigating the killer’s identity and got leads."

Shao Wuyou excitedly shouted.

"What leads? Tell us."

Tang Ming looked at Shao Wuyou with interest.

Everyone else was also curious.

"The killer’s gender unknown, age unknown, appearance unknown... In short, no discoveries so far."

Shao Wuyou explained earnestly.

"So, after all this, there isn’t any clue."

Tang Ming rolled his eyes speechlessly, admiring the killer’s skill for leaving no trace after so many cases, comparable to himself.

"Because there’s no clue, the police speculate the killer is skilled in assassinations and disguise techniques, appearing with different appearances each time, leaving no trace."

Shao Wuyou explained seriously.

"Isn’t that obvious? It’s an assassin..."

Halfway through speaking, Tang Ming’s face changed slightly. The conditions described pointed to that person, didn’t they?

Meng Xianjun furrowed his brows, looking at Tang Ming oddly.

"I’m full, going back to the dorm to nap."

Tang Ming decisively put down his chopsticks and got up to leave.

"What happened? You got full so quickly, that’s not like Tang Ming brother."

Li Xiaoli was surprised.

"Yeah, there’s still a lot left."

Liu Mengting was equally bewildered.

"I’m full too."

Meng Xianjun smiled and immediately followed Tang Ming.

"Let’s go."

Hua Yingjie nudged Shao Wuyou.

"I’m not full yet... Hey, wait for me!"

Shao Wuyou held onto a drumstick, dragged away by Hua Yingjie.

"Damn, could it really be her?"

Tang Ming left the cafeteria and quickly pulled out his phone to call Ruisi, but it was turned off.

"Did you think of Ruisi too?"

Meng Xianjun appeared behind Tang Ming, "If I remember right, you said Ruisi’s nickname is Hundred-Changing Demoness, I checked, she’s ranked third in the world assassin rankings overseas, Black Spirit is second."
