Chapter 1314 - 585: The Real Culprit
To be honest, Fang Yu was speechless.
What kind of thinking is this? Thinking they’ve met Detective Conan and will solve the case in minutes.
Turns out it’s just a bunch of nonsense.
And according to what Ding Hui said before, this person doesn’t match the characteristics at all.
"It’s not him."
Fang Yu asserted directly.
Just as Fang Yu finished speaking, someone immediately objected.
"How is it not! It can only be him, logically and emotionally!"
The person trembled all over with emotion, evidently deeply affected by Master Tai’s death, a loyal subordinate.
But that loyalty was directed at Master Tai alone, while Fang Yu just found this guy annoying.
Others spoke up at this time too.
"That’s right! The first to find Lord Tai’s body was Li Debang, obviously a thief crying ’stop thief’!"
"Lord Minister, the truth of Master Tai’s life and death is an internal issue for our gang, please do not interfere too much!"
"You know nothing, come here and say Li Debang is not the demon, do you know how long we’ve been discussing to find the real culprit! No doubt, Li Debang is the real culprit!"
"Li Debang, stop pretending, reveal your true demon form! We might leave you a whole corpse!"
In Forest Snake Gang, Fang Yu ultimately had no authority.
People only listened to him out of respect for the Gang Leader, but now, in the heat of the moment, everyone’s anger was overflowing, clearly not intending to heed Fang Yu’s outsider viewpoint.
To be honest, Qin Er was also a bit dissatisfied with Fang Yu’s recklessness.
According to her inference, this was likely the work of an expert in disguise, and the first one to discover the body indeed had great suspicion. Plus, Minister Qiu also supplemented the possibility of a demon, which was an endorsement of her deduction.
All of this was inferred through layers of evidence and clues; how could a newcomer, who still hadn’t figured out what’s going on, arbitrarily say that person wasn’t a demon.
Qin Er was dissatisfied, but she only dared to think in her heart, not speak it out, as her words were light and it was wise to be cautious.
The scene seemed to turn into Fang Yu being an ignorant outsider interrupting everyone’s business.
All of a sudden, Fang Yu seemed like he had become the target of everyone...
And at that moment.
"Everyone shut up!"
Fa Hongwen suddenly roared, his voice drowning out all discussion, sweeping his eyes over the crowd with a stern face, suppressing the entire scene.
He can disrespect anyone but Fang Yu.
Because Fang Yu is his hope for the future!
Fa Hongwen understood this matter clearly.
No matter how loudly these members shouted, could they be more important than him!
Fa Hongwen’s authority in Forest Snake Gang was well-known.
After all these years, who dared to disobey the Gang Leader?
When his words fell, apart from Qiu Xiaoping ignoring him completely, everyone else hastily lowered their heads to silence, not daring to speak again.
"Mr. Diao, the subordinates are ignorant, hope you don’t take it to heart."
Of course, Fang Yu didn’t take it to heart.
A bunch of weaklings making noise couldn’t affect him at all.
It’s just that these people seemed to truly believe Li Debang was the culprit.
No, how could a thousand-blood demon or a thousand-blood warrior kill a four-thousand-blood Hall Master without overturning heaven and earth?
"I don’t mind, it’s just you might be wrongfully accusing a good person." Fang Yu shrugged.
Fa Hongwen’s eyes turned: "How do you prove that? Could it be Mr. Diao has some insight?"
"No insight, just that I have some means to distinguish between humans and demons, and this person should just be a normal member."
Just moving your lips, turning a demon into a human?
The surrounding gang members were dissatisfied.
But they hadn’t realized they too were grasping at shadows, wrongly accusing someone as a demon, even forcing them into despair.
"Then, Young Master Diao, what’s your take on Master Tai’s death?" Qin Er couldn’t hold herself back, asking with a meek tone, but her heart was evidently filled with disagreement.
"No thoughts."
Fang Yu answered confidently and continued: "We just arrived, saw the corpse at the entrance, but as for the specifics, I don’t know yet, how can I make a decision?"
Not knowing anything yet, but arbitrarily judging my inference as wrong, it’s this arrogance that makes people feel uneasy!
Qin Er glanced at Qiu Xiaoping, seeing he had no intention to stop her, gathered her courage and said: "Young Master Diao probably already saw the corpse of Master Tai at the door, the fatal injury is just one spot, and no signs of a struggle, so I’m judging it was done by someone familiar. Hou Mo, who was in charge of patrolling the area, mysteriously disappeared, and with the blood in the Firewood Room, it should be the demon here, killed Hou Mo, disguised as him, approached Master Tai and killed him!"
"But just this still doesn’t implicate Li Debang. So I boldly infer that dying in this Firewood Room isn’t just Hou Mo, but also Li Debang! Hence the blood here is so exaggerated."
"The demon first killed Hou Mo, then Master Tai, and finally devoured Li Debang, immediately revealed Master Tai’s death, exonerating suspicion while facilitating subsequent escape!"
Qin Er used her brain.
Therefore her thought process was coherent.
At least the people around listened and nodded frequently, even occasionally brightened, feeling suddenly enlightened.
Even Qiu Xiaoping was slightly amazed, seemingly looking at Qin Er in a new light.
