Chapter 386: Sudden Shift, the Unexpected Attacker
Wang Haoran was dead.Dead beyond any doubt.
Dead with eyes wide open.
Everyone present was a murderer.
They were just divided into principal offenders and accomplices.
"Alright, everyone stop standing around dazed. Next, we need to deal with Wang Haoran's body and coordinate our statements for when the police arrive tomorrow."
Among these people, they originally thought Fatty was the backbone.
But now, they discovered that Zhong Hui, who was usually quiet and didn't like to talk, was actually the real backbone.
Perhaps this confirmed that saying: The truly ruthless ones don't waste words.
Don't push people who are usually dull and honest.
When pushed to the limit, these kinds of people might really resort to mutual destruction.
Of course, not everyone has the courage for mutual destruction.
Someone like Lin Chong, the Leopard Head, clearly didn't.
This group quickly agreed on their testimony.
Next was dealing with the body.
Jiang Weixin's body would be left untouched.
Wang Haoran's body would be buried on the mountain.
"Fatty, and you few, come with me to bury his body."
"You three stay at the campsite and wait for us."
Zhong Hui had Fatty, the short guy, Jiang Ran, and Wang Qingzhao go with him to bury Wang Haoran's body.
While Wang Qin, the short guy's girlfriend the ordinary girl, and the Freckled Girl stayed at the campsite.
Jiang Ran said, "My head has such a serious injury, and you still have the heart to make me go do manual labor?"
Zhong Hui ignored Jiang Ran, whether it was because he didn't trust Jiang Ran to stay at the campsite or for some other reason.
Soon.
Zhong Hui and the others set off.
Zhong Hui held a flashlight in his right hand, and in the backpack on his back was a pre-prepared folding entrenching tool.
It seemed he had long prepared for the possibility of killing and burying a body.
Then, Jiang Ran, Wang Qingzhao, Fatty, and the short guy.
Each lifting one limb, they carried Wang Haoran's body, following Zhong Hui in front.
During the carry, because Jiang Ran was lifting the left foot, he could look down and see Wang Haoran's wide-open, bloody eyes.
"Sigh, I feel like what we did today is really something that should happen in a Conan plot."
"The class reunion mountain climbing murder incident."
In the past, Jiang Ran saying this would have definitely drawn laughs from a few people.
But it was unclear if it was because their hands were just stained with fresh blood that they couldn't laugh.
However, there was still someone who responded to Jiang Ran.
Zhong Hui turned his head, glancing at Jiang Ran: "You also like watching Conan?"
Jiang Ran nodded: "It's alright."
Zhong Hui: "Then tell me, if we were really characters in Conan, and this was an incident happening in Conan, could you expand on the plot a bit?"
Jiang Ran thought for a moment and said, "The simplest would be, this happened over a decade before Conan shrank."
"Then over a decade later, we gather together again for a reunion or some other reason."
"Conan, Kogoro Mouri, and Ran are all there."
"In addition, there's someone seeking revenge for Jiang Weixin or Wang Haoran, killing us off one by one."
"Then a murder occurs, one of us dies first, followed by one after another."
"Then Conan starts solving the case, and while investigating, uncovers this murder case from over a decade ago."
Jiang Ran finished speaking.
After he finished, the previously silent people present laughed.
People their age, even if not Conan fans, had at least watched that anime.
Zhong Hui said, "Hmm, the plot addition is quite good. That's a possibility, but unfortunately, it's not very likely."
Regarding the choice of burial site, Zhong Hui's idea was to be far from the campsite.
Concealed, messy.
Finally, they chose a spot under a very tall tree of an unknown species.
Wang Qingzhao stood to the side, keeping watch.
The other four, including Jiang Ran and the other guys, each held a folding entrenching tool and started digging the hole.
Back at the campsite.
Because of the murder.
The three women left guarding the campsite had no desire to sleep.
They sat by the outdoor light chatting.
Wang Qin, the most beautiful among the three women, said, "I suddenly feel a bit regretful."
The ordinary girl said, "Regretful about what? Regretting killing Jiang Weixin and the others?"
The Freckled Girl let out a breath: "I'm not regretful at all. Back when those beasts Jiang Weixin and the others got us drunk and sent us to those old men's beds, they should have thought there would be a day like today!"
The Freckled Girl and the ordinary girl had suffered the same experience.
The ordinary girl seemed to remember this matter, her expression turning resentful: "That's right. We were even university classmates, yet he treated us like that, worse than a stranger."
Wang Qin looked at the two women and shook her head: "You misunderstood. I don't regret participating in killing Jiang Weixin."
"After all, if he didn't die, who knows how many more old men I'd be forced to accompany later."
"My regret is that before he died, I didn't get enough benefits from him."
As a girl who loved money, Wang Qin's biggest point of regret was this.
Even though she had already gotten quite a lot from Jiang Weixin so far.
But with her spending speed, she would eventually exhaust it all.
"Oh, right, I remember, Jiang Weixin also brought a bottle of 1982 Lafite. I'll go get it."
It seemed she felt that just chatting without something to eat or drink was boring, like watching a movie without popcorn.
Wang Qin got up and headed towards Jiang Weixin's tent.
Only these two girls were left by the campsite light.
The two girls hadn't chatted for a minute when they suddenly heard footsteps.
The short guy's girlfriend, the ordinary girl, looked towards the sound of footsteps in confusion:
"You got the wine that fast? And why are you coming from the opposite direction?"
Before she could finish her sentence, she froze in shock.
Seeing the ordinary girl like this, the Freckled Girl also turned her head in confusion.
The next moment, her heart seemed to leap into her throat.
They saw that burly man they encountered while climbing the mountain, the one who was chasing Liu Sha.
They saw this burly man holding a solid black iron hammer in his hand.
He gave them both a friendly smile:
"Hello there!"
Then, the next second, he stepped forward.
He smashed the hammer down on the head of the ordinary girl who was closest to him.
Instantly, the ordinary girl let out a painful scream of "Ah!"
The Freckled Girl wanted to run, but she had just stood up when the burly man's left hand grabbed her, and his right hand also gave her head a hammer blow.
Both women fell to the ground, clutching their heads in pain, twitching.
Before they could even cry for help or beg for mercy.
The burly man finished them off with hammer blow after hammer blow.
After completely killing the two women, the burly man immediately started running, searching for the third woman in the campsite.
Then, he saw a slender figure's back disappearing into the darkness.
It seemed the commotion from the two dying women had alerted her.
The burly man was none other than Wilderness Brother.
Ever since Wilderness Brother failed in chasing Wang De.
He had been wandering aimlessly on the mountain, perhaps due to bad luck.
He hadn't encountered a single person after that.
Therefore, he remembered that group of mountain climbers he ran into while chasing that woman down the mountain.
Ten people in total, one outsider, worth one small treasure.
Killing all of them would be ten small treasures.
As the saying goes, a thief never leaves empty-handed. Although Wilderness Brother wasn't a thief, he also adhered to the principle of never returning empty-handed from any round of the game.
