From Kowloon's Inheritance

Chapter 129 The People Behind the Scenes
Everyone is silent.

Suddenly there was a sound, as if the earth was shaking, and everyone couldn't help but chug in their hearts.

The next moment, the ground exploded, and a man jumped out and stood there.

"This is a dead body!"

"No, not dead!"

"He's still alive!"

After the initial shock, everyone turned into surprise. Li Mu was still alive, not dead yet.

To be alive is better than anything else.

"I'm still alive, but I'm very hungry... These tributes are delicious, and they are used to commemorate me. Just give me a little bit to fill my stomach!" Li Mu looked at the tributes on the table, and was very rude, so he took them and ate them down.

It was for him anyway.

The dead can eat it, but he is a living person, why can't he eat it.

After eating the food, it tasted bad, it was still cold, not hot at all, and there was dust on it, which was very unhygienic, but Li Mu grabbed it and gnawed it, regardless of these.

I was so hungry that I didn't eat a meal, and I didn't eat for a day and a night, and I didn't drink a sip of water, so my stomach was already dry.

This time I was hungry, this time I almost suffocated to death. In retrospect, Li Mu was in ups and downs. Looking at Hua Wuying and Sun Mengxi again, he thought to himself: "It's a pity that I am alive. If I die, I don't know that they will marry Who, to be whose woman, thinks about it, it will be a loss!"

Traveled through the previous life, and as a result, the three girlfriends were gone.

Now, he was almost suffocated to death in the secret room, and his two girlfriends were almost gone.

"Master, this is your favorite milk!"

Sun Mengxi sent a leather bag with milk in it.

Li Mu took a sip and it tasted good.

"Drink slowly, eat slowly!" Hua Wuying said, handing over the towel as she spoke.

The two women took good care of them.

Li Gong watched from the side, ate a mouthful of dog food, and wanted to kill this guy.But I grit my teeth, forget it, I can't beat him.

"What happened?" Liao Yuanhou asked.

Li Mu said: "Almost starving to death, almost dying of thirst, almost suffocating, the way of death is quite wonderful! No matter where you go next time, you must bring food, dry food, or you will not feel safe..."

This time, he was starving.

After all, he is a human being, after all, a body of flesh and blood, and he would be so hungry if he didn't eat a meal, and he didn't eat several meals.

"Next time, don't be so reckless!" Hua Wuying said.

"Understood!" Li Mu said, but he was thinking in his heart that he was reckless because he was not strong enough, not fleshy enough.

Back in the government office, Li Mu talked about the case, and everyone listened to the case with complicated expressions.

Li Mudao: "Yongle Chamber of Commerce, who is behind the scenes?"

"Cough, cough, cough!"

Suddenly, Li Gong coughed.

Hua Wuying was silent.

Everyone became silent, and the silence was a little suffocating.

Li Mudao: "Casinos and brothels are all profiteering industries. As the so-called profiteering industries are often very violent. If you don't have a backstage, you are often not qualified to operate..."

Just like the oil, coal mines, transportation, etc. in the previous life, without the backstage, even the door cannot be entered.

"Ahem!" Li Gong coughed.

Li Mu said: "Young Lord, the so-called backstage can't be you!"

"It's not him in the background... but me!" Liao Yuanhou said, with a slightly embarrassed look on his face.
"Just yesterday, there was such a big incident in Yongle Casino, another gunpowder explosion, involving the military, and I was also angry, so I investigated for a while, and found out...that casino is under my name. "

Li Mu was stunned, and there was such a routine.

The so-called robbers couldn't be Liao Yuan Hou!

"Master Hou, you couldn't have done this!" Li Mu laughed.

"It wasn't me...it was done by the manager below me...it has nothing to do with me..." Liao Yuanhou said, but he couldn't continue talking.

Now, it is impossible to say nothing.

"Where is that steward?" Li Mu asked.

"He's already dead!" Liao Yuanhou said, "When I found out that Yongle Gambling House was under my name, and when I found out about the manager, the manager was already dead!"

Mud falls in the pants, it's either shit or shit!

Li Mu frowned and said nothing.

Li Gong said eagerly: "It wasn't my father who did it, our family doesn't lack this little money..."

"Really? Let me meet the corpse in charge. As long as you do something, you will leave traces!" Li Mu said, "A lot of things depend on evidence..."

Just talking and talking, sorry to say.

To solve crimes in this world, there is often no need for evidence. Does the emperor need evidence for murder? No, just a reason for doubt;

Does the county magistrate need evidence to arrest a prisoner? No.Just reasons for doubt, just reasonable explanations are enough.

Makes sense.

It seems that now, all the evidence shows that Liao Yuanhou is the real culprit behind the scenes, but it is not logical... After all, this Marquis has no shortage of money in his family, and he doesn't know how to use such methods. It's too low-level.

Without saying anything, Li Mu saw the steward in the backyard of the government office.

The steward, whose body was placed there, was stabbed in the heart by a sword and died on the spot.

Li Mu asked: "Master Hou, do you recognize him!" "

"I don't recognize him...he is just a small manager with a low sense of existence, I don't recognize him!" Liao Yuanhou said.

As Lord Marquis, there are many servants in the mansion. Among the servants, some top-level people know each other, but some middle- and low-level people don't recognize them at all.

Li Mu nodded.

It was as if, after he became a general judge, most of the important figures and some high-level officials around Jinling knew each other, and a few outstanding people in the middle-level still remembered their names. As for the others, they might not even remember their names.

Carefully inspecting the body, the time of death has passed 24 hours, less than two days, that is to say, the suspect was killed when he was trapped in the secret room.

Why was he killed at this time... to divert attention, to splash water... or maybe to shed the golden cicada's shell.

He wiped the wound again, and killed him with a single sword strike. As for the manager's cultivation, he was only on the seventh floor of Acquired Heaven. His cultivation was very low, and his sense of existence was very low.

"Who recommended this steward!" Li Mu said.

"It's Butler Qin... Butler Qin has followed our family for generations, and it's impossible to betray him!" Liao Yuanhou said.Some servants asked the family to give birth, that is to say, Butler Qin was a servant, that is, his father, grandfather, etc., and the seniors above were all servants of Marquis Liaoyuan. Such a relationship was very strong, and it was impossible to betray.

"I want to ask one or two questions?" Li Mu said.

"Good!" Liao Yuanhou said.

A moment later, an old man with the appearance of a butler appeared and knelt down on the ground on the spot: "Lord Li, it's really not me, it's not that I want to frame Lord Hou... I don't know that this person is actually eating inside and out!"

Li Mu sneered and said, "Master Hou is a busy person, and he has no time to care about trivial matters. You have to deal with these small things, but now a big black pot is on Master Hou, and 500 million taels of official silver is lost. Many evidences are Point to Lord Hou. What do you tell the emperor to think of Lord Hou, and what do the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty think of Lord Hou!"

Said, the tone is aggressive.

The housekeeper said, "I'm sorry, Lord Hou!"

As he said that, his eyes turned red, and he slammed into the pillar beside him, apologizing with death.
