A large number of police officers soon arrived at the Zhongjia Manor. A Texas congressman was assassinated and died in the Zhongjia Manor. This incident was not a small one. The top officials of Texas and Houston City officials at all levels were alarmed. For a time, the city of Houston was in panic. superior.

Everyone in the Zhong family has been controlled by the police at this time. The Zhong family can be regarded as the in-laws of Congressman Edwin, and they are also related by marriage. However, Edwin is already dead at this time, and he died in the Zhong family. In the manor, the Zhong family is considered the biggest suspect.

The old man of the Zhong family, Zhong Xiaotian, is in a coma at this time. The only people who can take charge are Zhong Xinyi, the eldest son of Zhong Xiaotian, and Zhong Xincheng, the second son. However, Zhong Xincheng has not been favored by his father since he was a child, and he is still an outsider, so he has no voice in the Zhong family. Quan, today my sister-in-law’s father, Texas Congressman Edwin, was killed. Although I looked calm on the face, I was extremely happy in my heart.

The police chief came to the scene in person and after seeing Edwin's body with his own eyes, he said to Edwin's son Wilson with great sadness.

"Wilson, I am deeply saddened by what happened to Senator Edwin, but what we need most at this time is to find the murderer. I just watched the scene. Your father and niece should have been killed with a single shot from a sniper rifle."

The police chief saw Wilson's blood-red eyes and said quickly.

"Sorry, I know saying this will make you even more sad, but our most important thing now is to find the murderer."

Wilson also knew that the police chief was right and looked at the police chief.

"This matter should be related to the Zhong family. My niece is also dead. And according to the bodyguards, it should be two people. The time interval between the two gunshots is very close. Based on their experience Look, with a sniper rifle, the time between the two gunshots won’t be so close.”

The police chief nodded.

"Wilson, do you know if your father and the Zhong family have offended anyone?"

Wilson frowned, and suddenly remembered that some time ago, his father sent his men to kill a person for the sake of his niece, but it seemed to be unsuccessful. Thinking of this, he looked at the police chief.

"Xu family, do you know?"

The police chief was stunned and shrugged, "Of course I know. The Xu family is about the same as your Zhong family. The businesses in Houston are on par with your Zhong family."

Wilson looked at the corridor of the bodyguard dormitory where Xu Jingyan and Duanmuchen were hiding.

"The murderer was hiding there at the time. When the bodyguards passed by, the murderer had already escaped and a rope was left at the scene. I don't know if it will be of any use to you.

And I suspect that the Xu family was responsible for this assassination, but we have no evidence. "

The police chief glanced at Wilson in surprise.

"I'm sorry, what is your reason? I can't arrest people for no reason."

Wilson frowned. Naturally, he couldn't tell anything about his father and niece, otherwise it would easily cause trouble. You must know that his father was dead, and his family was in Texas and had no support in Houston. If things got serious, My own home might be ruined.

"Sorry, I have no evidence or reason. It's just a guess for the time being. You know, I heard some time ago that my niece's fiancé was pestering the daughter of the Xu family."

The police chief looked at Wilson meaningfully and smiled, "I know, I will pay attention to this matter."

Zhong Xinyi has been standing aside. He heard what his brother-in-law and the police chief said. As for why his brother-in-law didn't tell anyone, he also knew in his heart that his daughter and her father-in-law's people went to kill the eldest daughter of the Xu family a few days ago. Now Zhong Xinyi If the family loses the support of the brother-in-law, it will probably be even more difficult in the future.

Xu Jingyan and Duanmu Chen split up and found another path in the woods and walked towards the depths of the woods. After running for about ten minutes, they came out of the woods and then turned to the place where the car was parked.

As soon as they walked to where the car was parked, they saw that Duan Muchen had also arrived. Without saying a word, the two started the car and drove towards the city of Houston from another road.

The two separated in downtown Houston. Xu Jingyan drove home alone, while Duanmuchen went to a so-called friend's house. It was already past nine o'clock in the evening when she got home, and Xu Jingyan returned to her room without disturbing anyone.

Xu Jingyan first changed her clothes and took a shower before lying on the bed and falling asleep

This murder was different from the previous one. The previous one was still a bit difficult for me to accept psychologically, but this time I didn't feel it at all.

I slept until dawn, but received a call from the housekeeper Cheng of the Xu family manor, saying that the police came to the door. After asking around, they were on their way to the city.

The meaning of Cheng Yi's words is very obvious, that is, the police are now suspicious of the Xu family. Although the Zhong family and Wilson did not say anything about what happened a few days ago, the impact of the gun battle that day was still great, so the police could easily get it. information.

Although there is currently no evidence to prove that the Xu family was responsible for yesterday's shooting at Zhong's house, they must come and inquire.

When the police came to the door, Xu Sijia looked very confused. That expression made the police who came quickly concluded that the matter had nothing to do with Xu Sijia, because when Xu Sijia heard that Avril Lavigne and Congressman Edwin were dead, she looked so surprised. The expression was not fake, and Xu Sijia turned pale with fright.

However, the police also asked specifically about Xu Jingyan. They heard that Xu Jingyan came here from Huaxia to visit her aunt. The police left without saying anything. In their eyes, Xu Jingyan looked weak. Weak and seemingly incapable of participating in a gunfight.

After the police left, Xu Sijia regained her composure and looked at Xu Jingyan.

"Come upstairs with me."

Aunt Qing looked at Xu Jingyan with a worried look, then looked at Xu Sijia who went upstairs, opened her mouth, but in the end did not ask any questions, and sighed softly and entered her room.

She knew in her heart that Miss Sun and the man quietly left home last night and did not return until around nine o'clock in the evening. She still heard some noises last night.

After Xu Jingyan entered the room, Xu Sijia was sitting behind the desk meditating. When she heard the sound of Xu Jingyan coming in, she raised her head.

"Did you do this?"

Xu Jingyan blinked and said innocently.

"Auntie, you think so highly of me. Although I have some skills and my marksmanship is not bad, I still don't have the ability to go to the Zhong family's manor."

When Xu Sijia heard this, she glared at Xu Jingyan and sighed.

"It doesn't matter to you. Avril wanted to kill me several times. It's not bad that she's dead now. Just clean up the tail and understand the matter. Come back to China as soon as possible in the next few days!"

Xu Jingyan pursed her lips and smiled. Her aunt was sure that she had done this and stopped talking.

Xu Sijia glanced at Xu Jingyan.

"Duanmu went with you!"

Xu Jingyan nodded noncommittally, but Xu Sijia didn't care.

"Thank him this time. I know who asked him to come. When you see him, thank him for me."

There was a hint of bitterness in the smile on Xu Sijia's face. She had no hope for the future of herself and Duanmu Hao. Maybe they would never be together in this life.
