Chapter 448: Chapter 233 Jiang Yi’s Stand Flag_3

And in Qingzhou, although not as strict as the Capital, the crime was still considered very serious if the Liushan Division really decided to investigate.

"I think, I understand," Jiang Shouzhong let out a sigh.

...

As they left the medical clinic, Jiang Shouzhong said to Li Nanshuang, "Right now, it seems that Mr. Xu must have ingested Demon Energy."

Li Nanshuang asked tentatively, "Then should we..."

Jiang Shouzhong said, "There are two possibilities. First, Mr. Xu made a deal with someone involving Demon Energy on the condition of loaning out his sword. But with Mr. Xu’s connections, getting a bottle of Demon Energy would be quite easy for him.

Secondly, someone from the Liushan Division discovered Mr. Xu’s use of Demon Energy and threatened him with it, forcing Mr. Xu to loan out his treasured sword. After all, the crimes of ingesting and secretly hoarding Demon Energy are very serious."

Li Nanshuang’s bright eyes tensed, "Then it must be the second one, someone from the Liushan Division threatened Mr. Xu."

Jiang Shouzhong nodded faintly, "And this person must hold a high position. If it were just an ordinary member of the Liushan Division, with Mr. Xu’s underworld boss character, he could’ve risked dealing with the person directly.

But Mr. Xu did not do that; instead, he obediently loaned out the sword he cherished as much as a wife, which indicates that the person’s status has instilled fear in Mr. Xu, making him afraid to act against him."

"Braised noodles, have you guessed who it is?"

Li Nanshuang, with an intuitive understanding, asked crisply.

Jiang Shouzhong subconsciously pinched the girl’s cheek, smilingly said, "If it’s really the person I suspect, then our position in Qingzhou is truly precarious."

"Who is it?"

Li Nanshuang asked urgently, not even minding that the man had pinched her cheek.

Jiang Shouzhong didn’t rush to answer, but instead grasped Li Nanshuang’s hand and placed it over his heart, pretending to be profound, "Boss, why don’t you try to sense if you can guess the person I’m thinking of? Let’s see if we have that kind of tacit understanding."

"I’m very stupid."

Li Nanshuang pouted, finally admitting to her own ineptitude.

Jiang Shouzhong, holding the girl’s cool small hand, said with a smile, "I believe you can guess. Give it a try."

Feeling the man’s heartbeat through their palms, Li Nanshuang inexplicably blushed.

At the same time, the man’s encouragement also gave her a bit of confidence.

The girl tried to calm her heart and guess the person Jiang Shouzhong was referring to, but she couldn’t find a clue.

Just as she was about to give up, an epiphany struck her, and she blurted out subconsciously, "Shan Dongchuan!"

The girl looked at the man with a face full of anticipation, uneasy.

Jiang Shouzhong nodded with a smile, gave a thumbs up, "True to the head of Jiang Mo’s group, truly impressive. You guessed right."

Right!?

Li Nanshuang’s beautiful eyes widened, then with excitement, she let out a shout, throwing herself into Jiang Shouzhong’s arms like an octopus, her face flushed with enthusiasm and especially adorable.

The girl wasn’t excited because she guessed correctly.

Or became smarter.

But because she felt she could sense the other person’s heart.

It meant that she and Jiang Mo shared a special kind of heart-to-heart connection, and that was what truly made her happy and thrilled.

It was as if a bridge had been built between them.

"Jiang Mo, Jiang Mo, you try to sense what I’m thinking, see if you can guess the name I’m thinking of?"

Li Nanshuang, holding the man’s hand over her heart, her crescent-moon-shaped eyes brimming with joy, was completely unaware of how inappropriate her behavior might be.

One hand cannot clap...

Feeling the greatness of his leader’s bosom, Jiang Shouzhong said, "You’re thinking about Jiang Mo."

"Hmm, yeah... right..."

The girl suddenly realized, and then, with a flushed face, she knocked on the man’s head, "Right, my foot! I wasn’t thinking of your name at all."

And at that moment, she noticed the man’s hand was still over her heart and glared at him fiercely, "Aren’t you going to move it?"

"Weren’t you the one who put it there?"

Jiang Shouzhong looked aggrieved as he touched his nose; his palm seemed to retain a faint fragrance.

Li Nanshuang glared at the man, feeling a tingling sensation at her heart, then, reacting sluggishly, her mouth dropped wide open. It took her a moment before she stupidly said, "You mean... the person behind framing you is Mr. Shan?"

Jiang Shouzhong sighed softly, "I can’t think of anyone else. First, Shan Dongchuan is the supervisor of Qingzhou’s Liushan Division, has been in charge here for many years, and has a status that allows him to manipulate any person in Jianghu within Qingzhou.

Secondly, someone easily stole my Identity Token that I had left in the room, which shows this person knew where I was staying and was familiar with the compound.

Thirdly, to impersonate my face, one would need to observe me closely. Since coming to Qingzhou, although many from the Liushan Division have seen me, only Shan Dongchuan has had close contact with me.

In particular, that trip to Famous Sword Villa, I rode back and forth in the same carriage with him, giving him ample time to observe me closely."

"But his little finger is intact," the girl still found it hard to believe.

Jiang Shouzhong explained, "As I said before, the one who kills and the one who lends the knife might not necessarily be the same person. It seems that Shan Dongchuan is the one who lent the knife and impersonated me, while the killer is someone else. It implies that this is the work of an organization."

Li Nanshuang was immensely shocked, her inner world in turmoil.

This outcome was truly unexpected.

During the few days in Qingzhou, she had formed quite a good impression of the Liushan Division supervisor there, and never imagined he could conceal so much.

The irony was that during the time Jiang Mo was wrongly accused and missing, this man was among the few who diligently helped Ran Qingchen investigate the case and firmly believed that Jiang Mo was wronged... Thinking about it now, it was laughable.
