Tomb Raider: Nine Gates Let Me Be the Group’s Pet

Zhang Zhixi heard her brother looking for her and wondered, "Could it be that I was discovered for helping Chen Pi escape this morning?"

"You get up first." Zhang Qishan tried his best to calm himself and tilted his head to let Adjutant Zhang get up from the ground first.

"Brother?" Zhang Zixi pushed open the door of Zhang Qishan's study, pretending to be calm.

"I asked you, where did you go after breakfast today?"

"I... am playing the piano in my room." Zhang Zixi said with a somewhat unnatural expression.

"Play the piano?" Zhang Qishan obviously didn't believe it, so he called Xiaoqing, who often followed Zhang Zixi, to ask her in person.

"Master Buddha..." When Xiao Qing came, she saw that Zhang Qishan was in a bad mood. She was so scared that she didn't dare to look at him.

"Did the young lady play the piano this morning?"

"Xiao Qing did hear the sound of a piano coming from the young lady's room this morning." "Everyone in the mansion should be able to hear it." Seeing that Zhang Dafoye was full of disbelief, Xiao Qing added weakly.

Hearing this answer, Zhang Qishan sighed helplessly.

"If you are not lying, then what the adjutant said is true." Zhang Qishan said as he looked back and forth between the two of them.

"But if you lied, the cost will have to be borne entirely by your adjutant. You have to know that the Military Court is not an easy place." Zhang Qishan turned his head and looked at Zhang Zixi, speaking solemnly word by word.

"Adjutant? Did he say anything to my brother? Did he find out that he was the one who fired the gun this morning?" Zhang Zixi thought secretly...

"Do you have anything else to say?" Zhang Qishan looked up and asked Adjutant Zhang who was standing next to him.

"I don't have..."

"The mission failed because your gun went off accidentally, right?" Zhang Qishan confirmed with Adjutant Zhang again.

"Yes……"

Zhang Zixi was stunned when she heard their conversation.

"What do you mean by accidental discharge? It was clearly his own fault..."

"Wait!" Zhang Zixi immediately spoke out to stop him when she saw that Adjutant Zhang was really about to be taken away.

When Adjutant Zhang heard Zhang Zixi's voice, he frowned and closed his eyes. He originally wanted to just take the beating and the Buddha would not pursue the matter any further.

'Why did the lady try to stop me...' He sighed silently in his heart.

"What? He has admitted it, but you still have something to say?" Zhang Qishan suppressed his anger and spoke calmly.

"I..." Zhang Zixi was stunned for a moment, thinking about how to explain.

"I fired the shot, it has nothing to do with the adjutant... I will accept any punishment you want, I'm sorry... brother."

Seeing that Zhang Zixi finally spoke, Zhang Qishan raised his chin and signaled Adjutant Zhang to go out first.

"Do you know what you are doing?" Zhang Qishan stared at Zhang Zixi and asked.

"Know……"

"Then why did you lie before? And you even disguised yourself in advance. You had already thought about helping Chenpi escape, right?" Zhang Qishan laughed in anger, stood up again, put his hands on his hips and asked her.

"……I……"

"Do you know how many lives Chenpi has taken?" You only care about your friendship, but have you ever thought about what is benevolence and righteousness?"

"But... Chenpi also told me his reason. It was because the Fourth Master had..." Zhang Zixi's voice got lower and lower as she spoke, but Zhang Qishan still heard it clearly.

"Chen Pi, as the disciple of the Second Master, attacked the Fourth Master who was also from the Nine Sects. This was really unjust! He put the Second Master in a dilemma, which was unfilial! He killed innocent people indiscriminately, his hands were stained with blood, and in addition to the Fourth Master, he also did not spare the old, weak, women and children who stood in his way. This was unkind!"

"And you," Zhang Qishan paused, and continued, "seemingly loyal, but you helped Chen Pi escape and allowed your friend to make mistakes again and again, which is the greatest injustice."

"You ignored the blood and lives on his hands, which is even more inhumane! How can you talk about benevolence and righteousness when you disregard human ethics?"

Zhang Qishan became more and more angry as he spoke. He could not tolerate his sister doing such a thing without knowing right from wrong.

He was also filled with righteousness, so he simply dismissed those who were still walking around in the mansion and asked Zhang Zixi to kneel in the backyard to reflect on her actions.

Afterwards, Zhang Qishan picked up his coat and went out. He was going to none other place but the reed marsh where Adjutant Zhang and his men had ambushed Chenpi that morning.

Although he was angry at his sister for not being able to distinguish right from wrong, he let it go after he had punished and reprimanded her.

If she suffered any other harm because of this, he would definitely not be able to bear it.

Zhang Qishan came here for no other reason than to forge some evidence to explain the whole matter.

And what he was holding in his hand was the cigarette butt that Lu Jianxun's adjutant had crushed in the corner after the meeting yesterday...
