Chapter 187: Driving the tiger away from the mountain

Zhuang Changwu was startled: "Could it be Chi Shuyao who did it?" Gu Chenfeng clenched his fist: "Very likely."

Lin Yue said, "Regardless of whether it's her or not, let's go to the Gu family villa first."

Lin Yue had already made some guesses. Along the way, the heavy and tense atmosphere shrouded Gu Chenfeng like a thick haze, making it almost impossible for him to breathe.

When he finally arrived at the villa, the scene before him made his heart tighten – a large number of police officers had already gathered at the entrance, surrounding the entire villa completely. The police tape was stretched high, like an invisible barrier, isolating the outside world from the villa.

Gu Chenfeng took a deep breath, quickly revealed his identity to the police, and carefully walked through the crowd with the two men into the villa.

However, as soon as you step through the door, a strong, pungent smell of blood hits you, making you want to vomit.

Looking around, the room was a mess, with various furniture and items scattered all over the floor. The corpses lying haphazardly on the ground were even more shocking, their deaths so gruesome that it was unbearable to look at.

"Uh..." Zhuang Changwu only glanced at the bloody and terrifying scene, and his stomach churned instantly, a strong sense of discomfort welling up in his heart.

His face was pale, his body trembled uncontrollably, and his legs seemed to have lost all strength, on the verge of collapsing to the ground.

Just then, a pair of slender, soft yet strong arms reached out and firmly supported his swaying shoulders.

Zhuang Changwu turned his head and saw that it was Lin Yue, who was looking at him with disdain.

“We’re all still young. If you really can’t stand it, go outside and wait. Whether we watch from here or not won’t really affect the progress of things.” Although Lin Yue’s face was sarcastic, her words were meant to comfort.

Indeed, Zhuang Changwu was just a college student who had never experienced the ways of the world. Although he had eliminated many strange people before, those strange people were far less bloody and terrifying than the one he was seeing now.

Zhuang Changwu leaned his shoulder on Lin Yue's arm, and inadvertently, he caught a whiff of her faint body fragrance.

The fresh and delicate fragrance calmed his previously flustered heart a little. But at the same time, a blush crept onto his cheeks. He felt a little embarrassed and wanted to stand up quickly, but his legs were still weak and he couldn't muster any strength.

He now greatly admired Lin Yue. Despite being younger than him, she remained calm and composed in all situations, truly deserving of the title of senior.

Lin Yue helped Zhuang Changwu sit down on the ground, and after Zhuang Changwu leaned against the wall, she withdrew her hand from his.

Actually, at this moment, she had already thought of something, but she didn't say it aloud. Gu Chenfeng came out not long after going in; after all, it was too unbearable inside.

Looking at the two people sitting on the ground, he said, "The police have analyzed it; the people inside were all torn apart by a tremendous force, and..."

"And what?" Lin Yue asked.

“Not everyone died. Those who died… were all, to varying degrees, subjected to my… and my brother’s orders…” Gu Chenfeng didn’t dare to continue.

"Hmph!" Lin Yue ignored him and looked at Zhuang Changwu: "You don't look well, rest a little longer."

Zhuang Changwu was a little confused. What was there to rest here?

He felt like he had missed some clue, but he couldn't recall it. However, Gu Chenfeng's expression changed: "Oh no!"

Zhuang Changwu hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?" Gu Chenfeng anxiously replied, "It's a diversionary tactic! Mr. Zhuang! We need to get back to the police station quickly!"

Zhuang Changwu wasn't stupid; after Gu Chenfeng's reminder, he immediately realized what was going on!

With such a commotion here, Gu Chenfeng will definitely come back, and Gu Yonghui can't leave the police station...

"Senior, let's go quickly!" Zhuang Changwu stood up and said anxiously.

Lin Yue was surprised that they found out so quickly. Well, there was nothing she could do about it. She stood up without changing her expression and said, "Then let's go back quickly!"

Hopefully, Chi Shuyao can kill Gu Yonghui before they arrive! She looked at the flustered Zhuang Changwu, unsure of his thoughts.

...

Suddenly, a figure rushed into the police station. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a young girl.

She wore a mask that covered most of her face, but her eyes, though visible, clearly showed panic and fear. She stumbled and staggered towards the reception desk, like a frightened deer.

Upon seeing this, the police officer on duty quickly stood up and asked with concern, "Little girl, what happened? Don't worry, tell me slowly." He tried to calm the girl down with his gentle tone.

Upon hearing the police officer's question, the girl slowly raised her head, tears instantly blurring her vision. She choked out, "Officer, there's... there's a man following me!" Her voice trembled, as if she were about to burst into tears.

Upon hearing this, the policeman's expression immediately turned serious. He quickly turned to look behind the girl, but all he could see was an empty space with no trace of anyone suspicious.

The police officer gently patted the girl's shoulder and comforted her, "Young lady, maybe you're just imagining things because you're too nervous. This is a police station, it's very safe."

However, despite such reassurance, the girl continued to tremble, clutching the hem of her clothes tightly with both hands, stubbornly shaking her head and saying, "No, no! Someone must be following me, I'm not mistaken!"

Faced with the girl's resolute attitude, the police officers exchanged glances and decided to carefully check the surroundings again.

This time, when they reached the door, they were shocked to find several drunken men standing suspiciously in a corner not far away.

Without hesitation, the police rushed forward and swiftly subdued the men, taking them back to the police station. The interrogation then began.

Surprisingly, these drunken men unanimously insisted that the girl had seduced them, which was why they had followed her all the way.

Faced with such a shameless argument, the girl's face turned red with anger, and tears streamed down her face again. She looked at the policeman with mournful and helpless eyes, and pleaded pitifully, "Uncle, I'm really scared, please let me stay here a little longer, okay?" Her appearance was truly heartbreaking.

After the police officer nodded in agreement, the girl seemed to stroll around the police station casually, but in reality, she moved lightly and quickly toward the cell where Gu Yonghui was being held.

She looked around to make sure no one else was watching her, then tiptoed quietly toward the cell.

Just then, something unexpected happened! The girl, who had been looking relaxed, suddenly turned fierce, as if she had become a completely different person.

She suddenly waved her hands, and several jets of ink-black energy shot towards the police officers guarding the prison cells like lightning.

These black jets of air were incredibly fast, striking the unsuspecting police officers with pinpoint accuracy in the blink of an eye. The officers, struck without even a cry of alarm, instantly lost consciousness.

Gu Yonghui, who was inside the cell, looked up when he heard the noise and immediately witnessed this sudden scene, which made his heart tighten.

Although the girl was wearing a mask, making it difficult to see her face clearly, Gu Yonghui guessed her true identity almost immediately based on his years of understanding and intuition about certain people.

With a soft footstep, the woman slowly entered the cell. Without hesitation, she reached out and ripped off her mask, revealing a familiar and beautiful face to Gu Yonghui—as expected, it was Chi Shuyao!

Gu Yonghui sneered, "I knew it was you." Although he didn't know where the other party's power came from, his intuition told him that he would have a hard time getting out of here alive today!

Chi Shuyao's eyes were filled with hatred: "You have done all sorts of bad things, today is your death day."

Gu Yonghui looked at her and suddenly laughed: "You know what? When I beat your sister to death, she had this same look in her eyes before she died! Hahahaha..."
