The Prodigal Son of the Empire

"Master, what happened?" Liu Jin, the leader of the guards, asked hurriedly.

"I was assassinated," Wang Kang briefly explained.

"What, are you injured?" Liu Jin asked hurriedly, breaking out in a cold sweat. Zhou Qing was not there, so he took over the responsibility of protecting Wang Kang's safety.

If something happened to Wang Kang during his protection period, then he is really to blame.

Fortunately, he was fine, Liu Jin let out a long breath, and then his gaze became cold. Who is it that does not have eyesight and dares to assassinate the son of the Earl of Fuyang.

"Send someone to the mansion to call for someone, and surround the entire block for me to thoroughly investigate one by one," Wang Kang ordered in a cold voice.

He knew that even if there was an assassin, he would have run away by now, but he just wanted to make this matter bigger, and the bigger the trouble, the more he could see the truth behind it.

"In addition, go and bring back the corpses of the two assassins, and carefully identify them!" Wang Kang said again.

"Yes!" Liu Jin bowed to accept the order, arranged for someone to go back to the Earl's Mansion to call someone, and then went to examine the corpse himself.

"Master Kang, can we take this assassin's body back?" At this time Cao Canjun approached and asked.

"No!" Wang Kang waved his hand, and now it is basically certain that this Cao Canjun must be the assassin's accomplice.

Taking away the corpse is to destroy the corpse and wipe out the traces. Without any evidence, how can Wang Kang do what he wants.

"I am a soldier who joins the army. I am responsible for the public security in the city. This kind of finding out the real murderer is also our specialty. You might as well let me bring the assassin's body back. I will explain to you as soon as possible after the result is obtained. .”

Seeing that Wang Kang was still unwilling, he said again: "I am doing this for the well-being of Young Master Kang, so that we can find the real culprit as soon as possible."

"Let's go, you don't need to be in charge here anymore, my Earl's Mansion will take over!" Wang Kang said coldly, but he didn't want to make false claims with him anymore, and he would definitely not let him go until the cause and effect were found out.

"Master Kang, this is not in compliance with the rules!" Hearing this, Cao Canjun's face changed suddenly, and he hurriedly said: "The Earl of Fuyang is only called a title, and has no right to interfere in local government affairs!"

His implication is that even if you are not good enough, you are even worse!

Hearing this, Wang Kang was even more angry. He stared at Cao Canjun with his eyes like knives, and said coldly: "What I said is the rules. If you don't agree, you can go to the military officer, Sima, Changshi, Don't drive..."

"It's really not good, you can go to the governor!"

"You..." Cao Canjun's face was even more ugly. If Wang Kang really took away the assassin's body and found something, it would really be a big deal.

Assassinating the earl's son, who would dare to bear such a crime!

"Go away!" Wang Kang sneered, "Liu Jin, please take Cao Shenjun away for me. If he refuses to accept it, take it down immediately, and then let their superior officer, the recorder, join the army to lead him!"

"Yes!" Liu Jin, who was collecting the corpse, hurriedly led people to Cao Canjun, and said with a bad expression, "Master Cao, you should go!"

"You..." Cao Canjun looked at Wang Kang with an angry face, knowing that this was the only way to go for the time being, and he was anxious at the moment.

No, I have to go back and report as soon as possible.

Thinking like this, he reluctantly took people away!

"There is something wrong with this person!" Seeing Cao Canjun's leaving back, Li Qingman crawled into Wang Kang's ear and whispered.

Wang Kang nodded, unable to deny it.

"What did you find?" He asked Liu Jin beside him.

"The two assassins have been identified. One is stabbing far away with a crossbow on the eaves over there, and the other is attacking with a knife. The one with the knife should be a Deadpool. We found it in his back molars. Embedded poison!"

Liu Jindao: "This is the practice of Deadpool. If the task fails, he will bite his teeth and commit suicide!"

Hearing the report, Wang Kang was even more frightened. The combination of a long-range stab and a short-range attacker is a sure-fire situation.

And also sent a Deadpool?This made him even more unbelievable, who actually had such murderous intentions towards him.

Thanks to the presence of Li Qingman, I'm afraid even this Deadpool didn't expect that the delicate Li Qingman is a master of martial arts.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have shown his back to her, which gave Li Qingman an opportunity to take advantage of.

"What about the other person's identity?" Wang Kang asked again after thinking about it.

"The identity of that person is somewhat suspicious," Liu Jin said, taking out a continuation crossbow, pointing it to Wang Kang, and said, "This machine-operated continuation crossbow can shoot three times, and it can fire three crossbow arrows at one time. Backtick!"

"The folks will never have this kind of crossbow, only in the army."

"So you suspect that this assassin is from... the army?" Wang Kang asked suspiciously.

"Yes!" Liu Jin nodded!

[Author's digression]: I had a business trip today, and I finished that chapter on the road in the afternoon, and this chapter was written without eating when I came back, and there is another chapter that will be updated after twelve o'clock.

Chapter 83 Cocooning

After listening to Liu Jin's analysis, Wang Kang was a little shocked. The sudden assassin was suspected to be from the army, which is a bit intriguing.

"Is it possible that it was stolen?" Wang Kang asked again.

"Yes, but the probability is very small!" Liu Jin said: "It is not easy to make this kind of three-link crossbow. Only a special crossbow team can assemble it in the army. Each one is registered and rarely lost."

"Go and see that man, since he is from the army, he naturally has the characteristics of a soldier." Wang Kang said.

It's a pity that if he is still alive, he can directly interpret the identification.

However, in that emergency situation, he might be the one who would be in danger if he didn't directly kill him.

Wang Kang thought about it, and when he came to this person, he prepared to say that it was a corpse.

Whether it was the previous life or the present life, this was the first time Wang Kang saw a dead body.

It would be a lie to say that he was not afraid, but he knew he had to face it, and this incident also sounded the alarm for him.

Struggles are always bloody, especially in such an era, he must adapt as soon as possible.

Wang Kang suppressed his physical discomfort and squatted down in front of the corpse.

The torches were held high all around, illuminating the place brightly. Even under the illumination of the fire, the assassin's face was still pale, without the slightest trace of blood.

He is not very old, and his eyes are still wide open at this moment, and he can see the shock from it. I am afraid that before he died, he would never have imagined that he would be killed by a hosta.

The jade hairpin was still stuck on his forehead, and there was blood seeping around it, but not much.

The flesh at the wound turned outward, and Wang Kang instinctively felt his stomach churning, as if something was about to be vomited out.

Wang Kang gritted his teeth and endured it, he knew this was a necessary step.

Li Qingman looked at Wang Kang in astonishment, and from his expression, it was natural to see that this was the first time Wang Kang had seen a corpse.

That's right, how could a rich young man like him come into contact with these...
