Chapter 487 Death of the President
Unable to bear Zhao Lingshan's request, Chen Xi ended up standing there with only his underpants left, and was checked from head to toe by her.

"I'll take you to the hospital tomorrow. I have a friend there. I'll ask her to change your medicine."

"Ah, that's not necessary. Didn't you say there was a problem with the zipper of your clothes? I'll help you fix it." Seeing that the other party was not giving in, Chen Xi could only change the subject.

"Oh, it hurts so much, this torn dress." Zhao Lingshan just remembered this and immediately pointed at her back and asked Chen Xi to pull down the zipper.

"Have you eaten too much recently and gained weight?"

"Fuck you, I'm not fat."

Zhao Lingshan denied it proudly, but then she thought again and realized that she did seem to have gained some weight since she opened the fast food restaurant.

"Oh, I can't breathe." After unzipping her clothes, Zhao Lingshan slowly took them off, took a few long breaths, and secretly made up her mind to lose weight.

Looking at Zhao Lingshan's proud body that was not restrained by the evening gown and was exposed to his sight, Chen Xi felt an unbearable heat all over his body.

Because of what happened some time ago, he had not had a good time with Saori until now because of his injuries and Jin Nana. Now when he saw Zhao Lingshan's exquisite body, he naturally reacted.

At this time, Zhao Lingshan also noticed something strange about Chen Xi. He was only wearing a pair of shorts, which could not hide the changes in his body at all.

"Hmm~" Before Zhao Lingshan could open her mouth, she was pushed against the wall and her mouth was blocked.

Then, I felt a big warm hand on my body.

Zhao Lingshan felt limp all over, and she put her arms around Chen Xi's neck, trying her best to please him.

"Killing!"

"The president is dead, someone come."

Just as the two were warming up, a pig-slaughtering scream suddenly came from outside.

Chen Xi recognized that the voice seemed to be made by the woman at the front desk.

The president is dead?

What the hell.

The two people in the room gasped, pressed the pause button, looked at each other, and quickly put on their clothes.

When I got outside, I found that the woman at the front desk was looking at a house next door with a look of horror.

She covered her mouth with one hand and pointed to the window of the house with the other.

Chen Xi hurried over and was shocked to find that the window was broken, leaving a palm-sized hole on it.

After entering the room, his eyes quickly locked onto a man leaning on the boss chair with bloodstains on his chest. It was the president - Kuang Jintu.

Chen Xi's heart tightened, and he hurriedly moved closer to check. The room was silent, and there was no one else except Kuang Jintu. His eyes were focused on the sharp crossbow arrow in the president's chest. The arrowhead pierced deeply, which was shocking.

He bent down and looked at the ground in front of the window, where glass fragments were scattered all over the ground. These fragments were not scattered randomly, but arranged in a strange pattern, as if they were carefully arranged into a straight line, which looked extremely strange.

There were two uninstalled tempered glass pieces placed against the wall next to it, and one of the pieces of glass seemed to have a scratch on it.

Zhao Lingshan was outside asking the woman about her situation at this time, and those who heard the noise also began to arrive one after another.

Chen Xi quickly checked the situation in the house. Kuang Jintu was already dead and there was no chance of rescue.

"How could this happen, President..."

"Who did it? Did you see the murderer?"

After waiting for a while, Ji Min and others arrived and saw that Kuang Jintu was already dead. They all exclaimed in surprise.

"This crossbow is not a controlled item..." Chen Xi felt a little puzzled.

"In the past, there were rampant rabbits and wild ducks in Australia, and the government called on everyone to hunt them. The president started playing with the crossbow since then. There are still many of his collections here, but the crossbow arrows have been destroyed..." Ji Min explained.

In the past, the superior environment of Australia provided good breeding conditions for wild ducks and rabbits, resulting in a rapid increase in their numbers, which had a certain impact on the local ecological environment.

In order to control the proliferation of wild rabbits and ducks, Australian officials have taken a variety of measures, including offering rewards for hunting, using poisons and biological control.

"The police have been called. Who killed the president?" Zhong Lili put down her phone and said.

"Did anyone go to see the president just now?" Ji Min looked at everyone.

"Me! But I didn't kill anyone. When I got there, he was still on the phone." Jiao Yujia hesitated for a moment before raising her hand.

"Why are you looking for the president?"

"Well, I came to him to do something."

"What are you doing?"

"I was a little busy and wanted to ask the president for help, but he seemed to be talking to the consul, so I left." Jiao Yujia spread his hands, looking innocent.

"I don't think the murderer would kill for no reason. He must have a motive. Think about who has a grudge against the president?" someone in the crowd shouted.

"Xin Energy..." The first person everyone thinks of is him.

"Where are the people from Xin Energy?"

"I won't run away!"

"He can't run away. I've already caught him." Just as everyone was looking for Xin Energy, Vice President Kong Jianren and two presidents with injuries on their faces came over. Two of them grabbed Kong Jianren on the left and right, and one of them held a crossbow in his hand.

"Oh my god, it was really him who did it."

"Xin Energy, are you crazy? You actually dare to kill someone. It's ok that you and the president have some quarrels, but you actually resorted to violence." Jiang Nanyue pointed at Xin Energy and cursed.

"What happened? How did you know he was the murderer and caught him?" Ji Min felt something was wrong and asked immediately.

"I entered the bathroom to use the toilet and suddenly saw Xin Energy holding a crossbow. I went up to him and asked him. Who would have thought that this guy would attack me? Fortunately, I was strong enough to knock him down. Then I called the vice president..." said the man who was holding Xin Energy.

"I just wanted to scare Kuang Jintu, but I missed..." Xin Nengliang did not deny it and directly admitted that he had killed someone.

"Chen Xi, do you think it's possible that he didn't kill her?" Zhao Lingshan suddenly asked in a low voice.

"Oh? Why do you ask?" Chen Xi asked curiously.

"When you see murder cases in movies, the people who are caught at the beginning are often not the murderers. They just kill a dead person. In fact, the deceased was already dead before they took action. Xin Energy may just be a scapegoat..." Zhao Lingshan shook her head and began to analyze.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, you've turned into Sherlock Holmes."

"Hey, look at how this great detective solved the case." Zhao Lingshan smiled and walked to the front of the crowd and asked, "When you shot the president, were you sure he was still alive?"

"Ah? Of course he's alive. He just finished a phone call. If he was dead, why would I scare him?" Xin Nengliang looked confused. He thought Zhao Lingshan's question was a bit stupid.

"Little girl, go to the side and take them there. Someone has died here. Don't make trouble."

"That's right, what are you doing here?"

The president died and everyone was in a bad mood. Seeing Zhao Lingshan making trouble, they were not very polite in their words.

"I thought he was framed!" Zhao Lingshan stuck out her tongue and returned to Chen Xi.

"Why, great detective, aren't you going to solve the case?" Chen Xi teased.

"Oh, why is it different from the movie? They didn't even follow the script. Stop making fun of me. If you have the ability, you can solve the case yourself." Zhao Lingshan grabbed his arm and lowered her head in embarrassment.

"Where did you get this crossbow?" Kong Jianren asked.

"Yeah, where did this crossbow come from? It's not easy to carry this thing in."

"It must have been stolen from the guildmaster."

As soon as this question came up, everyone started discussing it.

"It's Gao Jian... Yes, it must be that guy who wants to kill someone with a borrowed knife..." Xin Nengyuan's eyes lit up, as if he thought of something, so he directly told him what happened before.

This crossbow was given to him by Gao Jian, who said that he wanted Xin Energy to scare Kuang Jintu so that they could avenge both old and new grudges at the same time.

As for the reason, Gao Jian wanted him to pretend to be Wang Mumu's man, so that Kuang Jintu would agree to cooperate with the Guru Cult to deal with Wang Mumu. It must be said that Gao Jian's idea was indeed good, but Xin Energy's skills were not good enough and he shot the president to death directly.

However, no matter what, crossbows are controlled equipment, and Gao Jian's behavior is illegal.

After hearing this, everyone called for Gao Jian to be found and questioned, because they could not just listen to Xin Energy's one-sided story.

Everyone started to take action and searched everywhere for Gao Jian's whereabouts.

After everyone left, Chen Xi did not follow them, but walked towards the crime scene.

"What are you doing? There's a dead body in there." Zhao Lingshan poked his back with her finger, then covered her mouth with both fists, looking extremely scared.

"Don't you want me to solve the case? I'm looking for clues!" Chen Xi turned his head and smiled.

"Ah? Are you serious? I was just joking."

"I feel that there are many strange things at the scene. Combined with what Xin Energy just said, I always feel that there is a problem... I found it." Chen Xi said and walked in.

"Hey, there's a dead body inside." Looking at Chen Xi who entered the house, Zhao Lingshan still wanted to persuade him.

"Help me keep watch outside. It will be bad if they come back soon." Under Chen Xi's urging, Zhao Lingshan had no choice but to do as he asked.

Chen Xi carefully looked around the room and checked the body. Looking at the cold body of the president, Chen Xi did not feel anything scary. The people in the movie were so scared after seeing the body, maybe it was the director who deliberately asked them to make exaggerated movements to create an atmosphere.

A few minutes later, Chen Xi walked out of the house.

"Did you find anything?"

"Well, a little bit."

"Who is the murderer? Let's catch him quickly."

"do not know."

"Ah? What do you mean I don't know?"

Zhao Lingshan was confused by what he said.

"What are you doing here?" Suddenly, a man came over and pointed at the two of them and asked.

"We are protecting the scene. Vice President, why are you here? Have you found the person?"

"Well, I found it. Let's go take a look together."

"Then here..."

"The police are here, let them handle it."

Kong Jianren waved his hand.

In the auditorium, Gao Jian was sitting on the ground with a bloody shoulder. Opposite him sat a man who was also injured.

The two of them stared at each other breathlessly.

"What's going on?" Chen Xi walked up to Ji Min and asked.

"That Yan Shouyi attacked Gao Jian. I heard that he is Wang Mumu's disciple. He attacked Gao Jian because of what he said before."

"Oh my god, why is the situation getting more and more complicated?" Chen Xi shook his head after listening.

The auditorium was very noisy and police officers began to enter.

"I am the Consul of Xicun, Hu Heshan! Please explain the situation to me in detail, and take me to see the body of President Kuang..." A man with a dignified face walked up to the crowd and said.

"Well, it's like this..." Vice President Kong Jianren stood up.

"Chen Xi, it's really chaotic abroad. You might even encounter a murder case when you go out..." Liu Peiyun shook his head and then looked at Zhao Lingshan worriedly, fearing that something might happen to her.

The disturbances in Xi Village a while ago have made Liu Peiyun question the public security abroad.

"It was this guy who gave me the crossbow and persuaded me to deal with Kuang Jintu..." Xin Energy suddenly shouted, as if trying to attract the consul's attention.

"You're talking nonsense. You and Yan Shouyi are both Wang Mumu's men. You just want to assassinate the president and destroy our alliance plan..." Gao Jian retorted, covering his arm.

For a moment, the scene was in great chaos and everyone was confused.

Without saying a word, several policemen walked over, handcuffed all three men, and held them in place.

Since these three people were speaking Mandarin the whole time, the police couldn't understand them at all, so they could only communicate with Hu Heshan and Kong Jianren.

"Hello, I'm Chen Xi. Consul Shen asked me to come here..." After Kong Jianren was called away by the police, Chen Xi secretly came to Hu Heshan.

"Well, I was just looking for you. Have you found out what Shen Lang asked you to investigate?" Hu Heshan and Chen Xi found an empty corner.

"Why are you so concerned about this? Now that the president is dead, aren't you going to investigate the case first?" Chen Xi looked surprised.

"The two are not contradictory. The murderer has confessed. Kuang Jintu died after talking to me, which means the murderer may be related to the Guru Cult. Kuang Jintu clearly stated that he would not support them. I suspect that this is why he was killed. Therefore, Xin Energy is likely a member of the Guru Cult, and the vendetta is just a cover-up."

"It seems like you didn't tell me everything."

"Well, the Guru Cult is about to make a new big move. They have already infiltrated the Chinese Business Association, the Chinese Association and other organizations. Kuang Jintu has already locked on several suspected targets and is slowly testing them..."

"Who is the target?"

"I don't know. No one said. Today he and I were just discussing the Australian government's targeting of Chinese businesses." Hu Heshan shook his head.

"Did you find anything during the meeting today?"

"We found some things, but we don't know who the murderer is yet..."

"What do you mean? Didn't Xin Energy admit that he killed someone?"

"I don't think so. He is most likely just a scapegoat." Chen Xi said, touching his chin.

"Could it be that Gao Jian? Xin Energy said that this crossbow was given by him." Hu Heshan analyzed.

"Maybe. I still don't understand one thing. Let me think about it again..."

"..."

The current situation is that Xin Energy admitted that it shot and killed the president, but insisted that it was Gao Jian who ordered it, and seemed determined to drag him into the water.

After a while, several people in plain clothes came over and shook hands with Hu Heshan. Chen Xi learned that they were all federal police officers who were instructed by their superiors to help them solve the case.

The murder of the president of the Chinese Chamber of Commerce is no ordinary case, and it also involves the Guru Cult. The higher-ups must be taking it very seriously.

The place where Kuang Jintu died has been blocked off, and several police officers are there inspecting the scene.

Xin Energy, Gao Jian and Yan Shouyi are being interrogated by the police, while the others are asked to stay where they are and wait.

"Are you kidding me? Didn't Xin Energy admit that it killed someone? Why won't they let us go?"

"That's right, we are not the murderer."

Some people are already getting impatient. They don't have a good relationship with Kuang Jintu, and it would be better if the president died. Electing a new one might be more beneficial to them.

In a room, Xin Energy was handcuffed and sitting on a chair. A policeman was sitting in front of him and questioning him about how he shot the president.

"I just held the crossbow, stood in front of the window and pulled the trigger. The crossbow arrow shattered the glass. I was shocked at the time. This thing was so powerful... Fortunately, I looked around and there was no one around... But this thing was given to me by Gao Jian. It must have been debugged, which led to my accidental killing of Kuang Jintu!" Xin Energy analyzed it carefully and felt that Gao Jian was likely to have tampered with the crossbow.

However, the people present understood that the crossbow had just been checked and there was no problem with its accuracy.

"You attacked someone in the bathroom. Did you intend to kill him?"

"Of course not. He came up to me and asked me why I was carrying a crossbow. I was planning to hide the thing somewhere, but when I saw someone coming, I hid in the bathroom. However, I was still discovered. So I wanted to get rid of him first, but I didn't expect that man to yell and attract Kong Jianren and others. I really didn't want to kill him to silence him..." Xin Energy continued to answer.

Chen Xi stood aside, thinking, holding an unlit cigarette in his mouth.
