Chapter 139
When Ji Yinian saw the situation ahead, his heart was shaken severely.

The bad old man sat crookedly on the chair, his head slumped, and the clothes on his chest were stained with blood, which had dried up and turned black.

There was a pool of blood on the ground.

She looked closer and almost threw up.

The bad old man's wrist was cut open, and maggots were already crawling on it.

Her scalp was numb and she didn't dare to look any more.

"Who? Who did it?" Qin Su clenched his fists tightly, with anger and hatred in his voice.

Ji Yinian noticed that her mood was very abnormal. Could it be that the bad old man has something to do with her?
She also didn't expect that something would happen to the bad old man.

Who was so cruel to attack him?

"Why did you come to him?" Suddenly, Qin Suhong stared at Ji Yinian with wide eyes.

Ji Yinian looked solemn, "Three days ago, I asked the old man to help me inquire about someone. He said that he would give me news in three days. So, I came today."

"I just arrived at the door, and there was no answer when I knocked, so I pushed the door open. I hesitated for a while before I went in, and then you came." Ji Yinian explained.

"Three days ago?"

"Ah."

Qin Su looked back at the bad old man again, gritted his teeth, "The injury on his body should have happened three days ago."

Ji Yinian frowned, "Who is so vicious to attack an old man?"

Qin Su clenched his fists, "When you came to see him, did you see anyone else?"

Ji Yinian thought about it seriously, and was about to shake his head when two figures flashed before his eyes.

"When I left, there was a man still there. There was also a woman. I saw her go in to find the old man." In this way, she was not the last person to see the old man badly.

"Who is it?" Qin Su's eyes were sharp.

Ji Yinian recalled carefully, "I heard that woman called that man...Chu Xiao. That woman seems to be called Jiu Sheng."

For some reason, she only heard that woman's name once and remembered it.

"Chu Xiao!" Qin Su squeezed out the name between his teeth.

"Now, we need to take care of the old man's affairs. Do you want to help?"

Now it is more certain that the relationship between Qin Su and the bad old man is very close.

There were tears in Qin Su's eyes, "You don't need to worry about it."

Ji Yinian frowned, why did he become so unkind all of a sudden?

"Get lost!" Qin Su got angry at her.

Ji Yinian looked at her with a complicated expression, and then glanced at the bad old man who was killed at home but no one knew about it.

Just met him once, and he died.

Who is so cruel?Want to lay such a poisonous hand on an old man?
Walk out of this dilapidated house and look at the bright sky outside.

Looking back at the dark door again, my mood became extraordinarily complicated.

.

"The bad old man is dead?" Shangguan Mo was very surprised when he heard the news.

This was completely beyond his expectations.

After all, the bad old man's reputation in Lingcheng is much louder than him.

Who has the guts to attack the bad old man?

"The masks inside were all destroyed. He sat there alone..." Ji Yinian felt a little emotional, "If I don't go today, if Qin Su doesn't go, I don't know how long it will take to be discovered."

She sighed heavily again, raised her head and asked him, "Here, if you die, you will die. No one will ask, no one will investigate?"

Shangguan Mo squeezed her palm, "This is the ruthlessness of this city. If you die, you will die."

"But I really want to know who killed the bad old man." Ji Yinian looked at him seriously, "I want to find out."

"That Qin Su, do you know who it is?" Shangguan Mo didn't respond directly to her.

"It should be someone from the bad old man. Judging by the age difference, it may be the grandchild of the bad old man. She is cold and not easy to get along with, but she is also a sweetheart. I think she will definitely find the murderer who killed the bad old man .”

If Qin Su is really the granddaughter of the bad old man, I really don't know how she accepts this reality.

Judging by her appearance, it should be a long time since I saw the bad old man.

Goodbye, it is already forever.

"Qin Su." Shangguan Mo read the name.

"What? Do you have an impression?"

"No. I'll ask Ah Jin to check."

Ji Yinian leaned in front of him, "I want to find out who killed the bad old man."

Shangguan Mo stroked her black hair, "Why?"

"Qin Su said, the bad old man died three days ago. Three days ago, apart from me seeing him, there was also a man named Chu Xiao and a woman named Jiu Sheng. Before I left, that Jiu Sheng entered Bad old man's house."

"Chu Xiao? Have you seen Chu Xiao?" Shangguan Mo's pupils constricted.

Ji Yinian nodded, "What's wrong?"

"He actually came back."

"You know him?" Ji Yinian was curious.

Shangguan Mo sneered, "Well, it's been a long time."

"You said that, but I remembered. That Chu Xiao is really not a good person. At that time, I asked the bad old man, which one is not easy to mess with, compared with you. The meaning of the bad old man is obvious, he is not as good as you. Listen His tone, he seems to be very uncomfortable with you."

"In Lingcheng, the people here are basically people who are difficult to control. Everywhere you go, if you want to expand your power, you have to show your ability and let others see your ability. As long as you can conquer them They will be loyal to you only if you have the ability. Being able to take all the people here under your wings is equivalent to ruling this city and becoming the king of this place."

"It just so happens that Chu Xiao and I have a competitive relationship. Although I haven't been here often these years, the connections I've established are solid. On the other hand, Chu Xiao, he stays in the city every time I leave. Be a demon. However, the people who follow me are all loyal and bloody, and they still stick to it."

Ji Yinian chuckled, "So, he wants to win you."

"There is no one who does not want power. Especially in this kind of place where no one is in charge, having power in hand is equivalent to controlling everything in this city." Shangguan Mo gently squeezed her hand, "He is a more sinister person. In the past The person he wanted to take down did not submit to him, and he did it secretly."

"So cruel?"

"Who is not ruthless among the people living here?"

"You are here, do the people above you know?" Ji Yinian was curious.

His identity is completely inconsistent with this place, and what he has done is also contrary to his original identity.

There is absolutely no way for people to combine these two opposing identities, and it is impossible to imagine a person with such two identities.

"I'm on top, no one is there."

Ji Yinian: "..." Do you want to be so arrogant?

"I want to find out who killed the bad old man." She returned to the subject, and she couldn't just let this matter go.

Shangguan Mo stared into her eyes, "So persistent?"

"Ah."

"You can check it if you want, my only request is to pay attention to safety." He urged.

"I know. Anyway, I've stayed here for so long, I know how to survive. Besides, now that I'm surrounded by you, I'm not afraid of anything." Here, what she learned the most is, ruthless!

"Shangguan Mo."

"Ok?"

"I'm going to find Qin Su."

"Go again tomorrow."

Ji Yinian pouted, "Then I'll go and see Jing Bai."

"No."

"why?"

"He's interested in you."

Ji Yinian was speechless, "He was injured."

"I allow you to rescue him, which is my biggest concession. He is injured, I just let someone take care of him." Shangguan Mo stood up from the sofa, put on the pupils that made him look blind again, and looked at she reaches out.

"..." Ji Yinian grabbed his hand and squeezed it hard.

It's a pity that her strength is really nothing to him.

Ji Yinian's face is always calm when the two of them are not alone.

It looked like it had been robbed by force.

The business of the bar is very good, no matter day or night, there are many people.

It looks like a normal bar.

After a group of people who were considered abnormal by the outside world gathered together, they all became normal people.

Ji Yinian supported Shangguan Mo, many people saw him and called him "Boss Shang" to show their greetings.

Shangguan Mo looked at them with dull eyes, and smiled slightly, gentle and friendly.

It's really well dressed.

Ji Yinian secretly felt embarrassment.

"Boss Shang, where is A Luo next to you? When did you change to such a beautiful woman?" Someone asked with a smile.

"That woman A Luo looks at us every day, provoking us openly and secretly. I said, Boss Shang, have you been with her for so long, have you ever been tricked by her?"

"Hahaha……"

Ji Yinian secretly pinched Shangguan Mo's palm.

Hmph, everyone here said that, so it can be seen that he and A Luo have not been together for a short time.

And that Ah Luo is so coquettish, who knows if she has succeeded?

Feeling the little anger of the woman, Shangguan Mo squeezed her hand slightly, "In your eyes, is my vision that bad?"

"Not bad, not bad. The girl next to you is much better than that A Luo. This one is just right for you." This is also a master who can talk.

Ji Yinian listened calmly, secretly happy in his heart.

Pretentiously, she raised her eyes and glanced coldly at the person who spoke just now.

The man didn't care, just smiled cheerfully.

"Do you really think that she is worthy of me?" Shangguan Mo's voice was not as deep and hoarse as usual, but the ending was rising, revealing a hint of femininity.

Ji Yinian paused slightly, what did he mean by that?
When the man heard him ask this question, he smiled awkwardly and waved his hands, "It's because I drank too much. The beauty in Boss Shang's heart is naturally a superior person, not everyone can match Boss Shang well."

"It's good to know."

Ji Yinian frowned slightly, and looked sideways at Shangguan Mo.

Suddenly, she understood.

They don't have much affection at all now, in the eyes of others, they are just the same characters as Ah Luo.

A woman who takes care of Boss Shang, nothing more.

Immediately, she put her mind to it and played the role seriously.

"I heard that you're back, but I still don't believe it. Now that you're standing here alive, I know they're right." An unfriendly and flattering voice sounded.

Ji Yinian looked over and saw Chu Xiao walking in wearing a leather jacket and stepping on leather boots on this scorching hot day.

He was tall and mighty, with resolute features and a murderous look in his eyes.

Comparing him now, Shangguan Mo seems to be a weak, white-faced scholar.

When everyone saw Chu Xiao walking in, their original relaxation was instantly replaced by alertness.

Everyone stared at him covetously.

Ji Yinian once again saw how much influence and deterrence Shangguan Mo had in the minds of these people.

If it wasn't for what Shangguan Mo did, how could they support him so much?
"Why are you so nervous? Boss Shang is opening the shop, so why doesn't he welcome customers like me?" Chu Xiao spread his hands, glanced at them ironically, and finally landed on Ji Yinian.

He squinted his eyes slightly, looked carefully, raised his brows, and pointed at her, "It's you!"

Ji Yinian straightened his back and looked directly at him, "It's a guest, welcome. If you are here to make trouble, the gate is there, please go back the same way."

As soon as the words fell, everyone's eyes drifted towards her.

This is probably the first one who dared to be so shameless and let Chu Xiao go.

The woman Boss Shang chose this time has a bit of a temper.

"Oh, I really didn't expect that the master behind you turned out to be Boss Shang. You have the ability." Chu Xiao looked back and forth between her and Shangguan Mo, "It's okay to be tall, but compared to the previous A Luo, It’s a bit less charming. Boss Shang, your taste has changed. Why, you’ve had enough fun with sexy and charming women, and now you’ve changed to this kind of porridge and side dishes?”

Ji Yinian narrowed his eyes slightly, porridge and side dishes?

"It seems that you had a lot of contacts with A Luo before. Otherwise, Boss Shang didn't think A Luo was sexy, how could you be so clear?" Ji Yinian sneered.

Shangguan Mo had already sat down, and he had no intention of opening his mouth at all.

Chu Xiao stared at Ji Yinian for a while, then glanced at Shangguan Mo, and suddenly smiled, "The people around Boss Shang are really getting more and more interesting."

"No matter how interesting a person is, he's also mine." Shangguan Mo faced him, his gloomy eyes couldn't see any light.

Ji Yinian couldn't help but want to applaud, what she said touched her heart so much.

"Mr. Chu, if you don't come to spend, don't occupy resources and hinder our business." Ji Yinian looked at him with a smile, but his eyes were sharp and cold.

The two sang together and cooperated very tacitly.

Chu Xiao looked back and forth between the two of them, pulled up a chair and sat down with his legs crossed, "Who says no consumption? Have two glasses of whiskey."

"Boss Shang, can you have a drink?" Chu Xiao signaled the bartender to give the wine to Shangguan Mo.

The bartender glanced at Shangguan Mo.

Ji Yinian took it and put it back on Chu Xiao's table, "Boss Shang doesn't drink."

"Can you make the decision for Boss Shang?" Chu Xiao looked at the glass of wine, his tone already showing displeasure.

"Anyone with a discerning eye can tell that Boss Shang doesn't want to drink your glass of wine." This implies that he has no eyesight.

Chu Xiao frowned and curled his lips, "When does Boss Shang need a woman to point fingers and make a decision? Or does Boss Shang not give me face?"

"What did you say? I don't have to give anyone's face, but how can I not give it to you?" Shangguan Mo stretched out his hand, "Give me the wine."

Ji Yinian sighed secretly, glared at Chu Xiao, and put the wine in his hand.

"I thought the incomprehensible Boss Shang suddenly became enlightened and let the woman take care of him." Chu Xiao touched his glass, "Boss Shang, I respect you for a long time." After finishing speaking, he raised his eyebrows and looked at Remember at a glance.

Ji Yinian stood beside Shangguan Mo, his face was full of disdain.

This can be regarded as two big men from Lingcheng sitting together drinking and chatting.

In the eyes of those who don't know, the two seem to be friends.

In fact, behind this peace, what kind of undercurrents and calculations are hidden.

Shangguan Mo held the glass, and walked around the glass with his fingers, "You probably forgot, I never drink."

"You don't drink at the bar you own? What's your habit?" Chu Xiao frowned.

Shangguan Mo smiled slightly, groping for the wine glass and putting it back.

Seeing this, Chu Xiao didn't say much, just stared at his eyes, "Is your eye really incurable?"

"You care about me?"

"I want to compete fairly with you, but you are blind. If I win, it will be too unfair to you." Chu Xiao raised his eyes and glanced at the woman standing behind him.

This woman bared her teeth and claws in front of him, but in front of Boss Shang, she was well-behaved and smooth.

Heh, he changed A Luo, it seems that he knew A Luo's identity.

I just want to see how much more important this woman is than Ah Luo in his heart?
"It's ridiculous. He can beat you even if he can't see. If you compete with him on a fair level, you will only lose worse." Ji Yinian really disliked the disdain and contempt shown by this man because Shangguan Mo couldn't see.

Even if Shangguan Mo was pretending to be blind, she couldn't tolerate it.

Just like when she disliked Shangguan Mo's face.

Chu Xiao paused while drinking, "You've only been with Boss Shang for a few days and you've been protecting him like this? Why? You probably like Boss Shang, right? Heh, everyone in Lingcheng doesn't know, Boss Shang But not feminine."

"None of your business!" Ji Yinian had nothing nice to say to him.

Whoa!
Chu Xiao suddenly poured the wine in the glass on Ji Yinian's face.

This move of his surprised everyone.

Shangguan Mo's face suddenly turned cold.

Ji Yinian put his hand on Shangguan Mo's shoulder and pressed it lightly.

She wiped her face and smiled at Chu Xiao, "A big man really has no manners."

Like a normal person, Chu Xiao picked up the cup in front of Shangguan Mo and leaned on the chair shaking his legs, as if he wasn't the one who poured the wine just now, "Everyone in Lingcheng knows that I, Chu Xiao, am not gentler than Boss Shang .Since you are Boss Shang's woman... No, it shouldn't be counted. At most, it's just a slave. This is just a reminder. Men talk, women shut up!"

Ji Yinian sneered, "I'm really sorry for wasting Mr. Chu's wine. I should pay for it."

She turned and walked to the bar, and said to the bartender: "Mix another good glass of wine for Mr. Chu, the visitor is a guest, and the guest must enjoy God's treatment."

The bartender brother took a look at Ji Yinian, then re-mixed the drink.

With his back to them, Ji Yinian reached out to get a small package from the bar, and then poured it into the wine he had mixed.

Seeing this, the bartender brother took a deep look at Ji Yinian.

With an evil smile on the corner of Ji Yinian's lips, he walked towards Chu Xiao with the wine in his hand.

Shangguan Mo listened to her footsteps, and the original anger in his heart slowly disappeared.

When he was about to attack Chu Xiao just now, she put her hand on his shoulder to signal him to be calm, and he knew that she didn't need him to help her fight back now.

"Mr. Chu, I'm really sorry to let you waste a good wine." Ji Yinian put the glass of flaming wine in front of him, "This is an apology."

Chu Xiao looked at the glass of wine, with a hint of sarcasm on the corner of his mouth, "Woman, do you think I'm a fool?"

"Mr. Chu, what are you talking about?" Ji Yinian was very respectful.

"Didn't you drink anything in this wine?" If he drank this glass of wine, he would be stupid.

Ji Yinian chuckled, "You're in our bar, I asked the bartender to make the wine, and I'll serve it to you, if you die because of drinking this glass of wine, do you think I can get out of the bar?"

"I came alone, even if I died in your bar, you just need to dispose of my body."

"It seems that you are used to being afraid." Ji Yinian smiled lightly.

This smile was like a slap on Chu Xiao's face.

The smelly woman actually laughed at him!
After all, it was the woman next to Shang Xiazi, who was simply too arrogant.

"You said that the customer is God. Now, I invite you to drink this glass of wine, you probably won't refuse it." Hmph, I want him to be fooled, a little tender.

Looking at the wine in the glass, Ji Yinian hesitated, "Of course."

There was a faint smile on Chu Xiao's face, he wanted to see how this woman would end up!

Ji Yinian picked up the wine again, and just when Chu Xiao was about to see how she drank the glass of wine, she raised her hand, and the wine in the glass was poured on his face accurately.
