Chapter 917: Chapter 920 The Truth Emerges
With his "shameless" persistence and all sorts of brazen methods, Xiao Zhuang finally managed to obtain Huangfu Yunxiao’s contact information.
The two even had a late-night snack at Huangfu Yunxiao’s villa.
When the four assassins were about to wake up, the two tied them up and took them directly to the car.
"Yun Xiao, see you next time!"
As they left, Xiao Zhuang waved goodbye to Huangfu Yunxiao.
However, it was all in vain.
There was no one outside the villa; Huangfu Yunxiao didn’t come out.
Instead, after hearing Xiao Zhuang’s voice, the lights inside the villa all went off with a click.
"Damn..."
Xiao Zhuang felt awkward, then forced a bitter smile, self-consoling, "Really wants to sleep that much, huh? I like that."
...
The two brought the four tightly bound Hawk Group assassins back to their place and began interrogating them.
To get some real information, Qin Tian and Xiao Zhuang prepared a hundred kinds of intimidation and torture methods.
Unfortunately, they overestimated, because these four Hawk Group assassins didn’t have the psychological resilience of the Death Soldier Team assassins.
Qin Tian merely took out the Dragon Blood Dagger, and before he could say anything, one assassin nodded desperately and fearfully, "Don’t kill me, don’t kill me, I’ll talk, I’ll tell everything!"
The four assassins were interrogated separately, but they were fairly cooperative.
So, the next step was relatively simple.
After comparing the testimonies of the four assassins, Qin Tian and Xiao Zhuang concluded about the Hawk Group targeting the Fan Family.
Indeed, the Hawk Group was planning against the Fan Family, and some members of Hawk Group were already secretly monitoring the whereabouts of the Fan Family members.
As for the Death Soldier Team matter, these four assassins held low positions in the Hawk Group and were unaware.
Qin Tian had these four people write down their testimony and made them sign and stamp it.
Then, Qin Tian asked Xiao Zhuang to lock up these four people and prevent them from committing suicide.
The next day, Qin Tian, holding the testimonies of the four Hawk Group assassins, went to the elder Fan’s compound.
"Xiao Qin, why are you in such a hurry to see me, is there something urgent?" Old Fan saw the serious expression on Qin Tian’s face, and he became serious too, as if Qin Tian had something important to tell him.
Qin Tian didn’t speak; after sitting down in the living room, he directly handed the four testimony papers to Old Fan.
Old Fan took them and, upon reading, his face grew even more serious.
After he finished, he said nothing and was silent for a while, then called Fan Zongtian: "Zongtian, come back. It’s urgent!"
After saying that, Old Fan directly hung up the phone.
While waiting for Fan Zongtian to return, Old Fan began to ask Qin Tian about the situation: "Xiao Qin, how did you get this? Are you sure it’s authentic and reliable?"
Qin Tian had already seen old Fan’s reaction after seeing the four testimonies; besides becoming more serious and deep, Old Fan didn’t seem too surprised by the Huangfu Family targeting the Fan Family.
Could it be that Old Fan had already guessed it might be the Huangfu Family? Qin Tian wondered.
"I caught four assassins from the Hawk Group, a private organization of the Huangfu Family’s Eldest Young Master Huangfu Yunfeng; this is their testimony."
Qin Tian looked at Old Fan and continued, "The four testimonies were written separately by the four assassins, so based on the content, they should be authentic and reliable."
After saying this, Qin Tian added, "The four assassins are now with me. If you need them, I can hand them over to you anytime."
The meaning in Qin Tian’s words was clear: If Old Fan was preparing to retaliate against the Huangfu Family, Qin Tian would absolutely support him completely.
However, after hearing Qin Tian’s words, Old Fan didn’t respond directly but leaned back on the sofa behind him, muttering softly, "Huangfu Family... Huangfu Yunfeng... heh heh..."
Qin Tian couldn’t discern Old Fan’s attitude towards the matter.
Nonetheless, he could envision Old Fan’s current mood, which must be very complex and unpleasant.
Perhaps, if it were other people or families targeting the Fan Family, the Fan Family could directly fight back.
But the Huangfu Family...
The Fan Family really couldn’t simply retaliate recklessly.
After all, the Huangfu Family was not just anyone who could be provoked, even the Fan Family couldn’t.
Moreover, even if they retaliated, the Fan Family didn’t have the strength to contend with the Huangfu Family.
"This matter needs to be considered carefully, the Huangfu Family... we have to be cautious."
Although in the past Old Fan held high official positions, now, after all, he no longer had full authority.
And even in his prime, facing the Huangfu Family, he still dared not act recklessly.
"Xiao Qin, it’s not that our Fan Family doesn’t dare to seek revenge, it’s just that this matter involves too many aspects," Old Fan explained to Qin Tian.
Qin Tian nodded: "Understood."
Soon, Fan Zongtian hurried back from outside.
After entering the living room, he first looked at the four testimonies and then listened to Qin Tian explaining the gist of the situation.
After hearing it, Fan Zongtian sighed and said, "I didn’t expect it to be the Huangfu Family; it seems the Huangfu Family still holds a grudge against us."
Upon hearing this, Qin Tian was taken aback and asked, "Uncle Fan, what do you mean? Did the Fan Family and the Huangfu Family have a conflict before?"
Fan Zongtian looked at Old Fan, who said, "Xiao Qin is one of us, you can speak freely."
Receiving Old Fan’s approval, Fan Zongtian thought for a moment then briefly said, "Yes, many years ago, our Fan Family once offended the Huangfu Family."
After pausing, Fan Zongtian continued, "Back then, my father, while in office, arrested a few people from the Huangfu Family and sent them to prison. Although the evidence was conclusive, it still offended the Huangfu Family and caused a huge uproar, embarrassing them a bit."
"However, later my father personally went to explain and clarify to the head of the Huangfu Family, Huangfu Xuan, who eventually understood. Although he was very reluctant, the evidence was indisputable."
"I didn’t expect that after all these years, the Huangfu Family still holds our grudge."
Fan Zongtian said with a bit of a bitter smile and helplessness.
After hearing this, Qin Tian asked further, "Uncle Fan, pardon my intrusion, was the incident of offending the Huangfu Family before or after the assassination attempt involving Zhuo Wei?"
"Definitely before."
Fan Zongtian replied directly, "There was more than a year between the two incidents."
After speaking, Fan Zongtian suddenly thought of something and exchanged a glance with Old Fan.
Then, they both looked at Qin Tian involuntarily.
Qin Tian steering the topic to this matter, could it be...
Old Fan thought about it and deemed it impossible.
Back then, he also suspected it might be the Huangfu Family but found no shred of evidence, besides, at that time, the head of the Huangfu Family, Huangfu Xuan, actively expressed condolences and sympathy, quite warmly.
Therefore, Old Fan and Fan Zongtian both directly ruled out the Huangfu Family from the list of potential enemies responsible for the assassination.
