Legendary Sequence
Chapter 232 Assassination of Zong Lan
When the guests were sent to the gate of the palace, they were surprised to find that the Magic SWAT Team of the Kunyang City Security Bureau had sealed off the area around the palace!
A well-known magic special police officer is well-equipped and has a serious expression. The magic auxiliary machine in his hand is adjusted to a state that can be activated at any time, and his eyes are staring sharply in the direction of the palace.
As a palace, it is located in a relatively remote area and is not in the middle of a busy city, so there are not many people, but some people are still looking at it, guessing what happened.
They didn't take any pictures, apparently because they had been warned by the magic police.
"Is it possible that the old prince needs to be prepared?"
The guests were guessing like this, otherwise it would be difficult to understand why the magic police would surround the palace.
He Xiang walked up to the second master of the Xiong family and asked aloud: "How is the situation inside?"
"Who do you want to ask?"
"all!"
"You go find the old prince, I want to send these guests away now."
He Xiang nodded, and then said into the headset: "Everyone gather the team and cancel the combat readiness state!"
After that, He Xiang entered the palace gate, and the magic special police began to collect the team in an orderly manner.
…
"Baili Chengze is dead."
Li Xiuzhi listened to the voice on the phone with a playful smile on his face: "It's good to die, it's good to die. That guy will eventually follow the same path as his senior brother, and there's no turning back, hahahaha!"
"Thank you for keeping an eye on me, keep hiding."
Li Xiuzhi hung up the phone and looked out the window with a relaxed expression: "The efficiency is quite high. We have solved Baili Chengze in just a few days. We have to give him some sweetness, otherwise we will not be able to do things well in the future. !”
…
"Thankfully you didn't kill him. Fortunately you didn't kill him. You still stopped. It's really great, great!"
In the spiritual world, Ling'er said with lingering fear. The anxiety and anger just now were no longer on his face, and what was left was relief.
"The fact that you stopped subconsciously when you saw Baili Chengze's gaze shows that you are still kind in your heart. I must bring you back to the right path!"
Su Yian was silent. Ling'er now felt like a supervisor to him, supervising his every move and preventing him from going astray. He didn't know whether it was her own intention or someone who asked her to do this.
"No, no, it's not to bring you back to the right path." Ling'er said to himself: "You can't be allowed to kill people casually... Hey, it doesn't seem right either... In short, you can't do anything like killing Baili Chengze. Did you hear that!?"
"Oh!" Su Yian responded and stopped listening to Ling'er's nagging.
The place he was in at this time was Xiong Chumo's room. Xiong Chumo hadn't woken up yet. The fact had hit him too hard.
If he wakes up and learns about his father's death, he doesn't know if he can bear it.
"Xiao Xin, Chu Mo will get better." Beiming Zhiyao comforted Dongfang Xiaoxin.
Dongfang Xiaoxin nodded lightly and whispered: "When he wakes up, you should tell him what happened. You have to go through this hurdle after all."
"I'll talk to him when he wakes up." Xiong Bin opened the door and walked in, saying to Dongfang Xiaoxin: "Thank you for always taking care of Chu Mo."
"Old Prince!" Beiming Zhiyao and the others saluted Xiong Bin.
Xiong Bin nodded lightly, and after glancing at Xiong Chumo on the bed, he turned to look at Su Yian: "Come out with me."
Su Yian didn't say much and followed Xiong Bin out. Beiming Zhiyao and Dongfang Xiaoxin looked at each other. The old prince's tone seemed to be very familiar with Su Yian.
"Your Majesty!" Su Yian looked at Xiong Bin.
Xiong Bin didn't say much and said directly: "The reason Lu Chengwang came here is to discuss cooperation with Xiong Zhaolin."
"I don't know the specific content of the cooperation, but I think there is a high probability that it has something to do with Liuyang Jiao."
Su Yian looked at Xiong Bin: "My lord, it seems that you are being monitored and imprisoned by Xiong Zhaolin, but in fact you are well aware of what happened."
"When you are alive, you must have some backup." Xiong Bin said calmly: "By the way, a batch of arms returning from Liuyangjiao will take the land route of Jingnan Province. I think this should be useful to you."
"Arms..." Su Yian thought of the batch of advanced weapons and equipment that the Zong family gave the Xiao family in Liuyangjiao to use to explore the ruins.
At that time, I was surprised that the Zong family was so generous and obtained so much elite equipment from the empire. Now it seems that they were not sold to the Xiao family, but lent to the Xiao family.
Also, once such a large batch of elite equipment is found to be missing by the military and reported, it will be difficult for the Zong family to suppress the matter.
If you add other things...
Su Yian already had a feeling in his heart.
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Su Yian expressed his gratitude. This information was very important to him.
Xiong Bin shook his head: "I just hope you will take more care of Chu Mo."
"It seems that the prince has already chosen someone."
"Not really, I'm quite fair." Xiong Bin said with a smile, "Okay, I have to teach my sons a lesson."
"My lord, walk slowly."
After watching Xiong Bin leave, Su Yian immediately dialed Wang Jingtang's phone: "Pay close attention to the movement of a batch of arms transported back from Liuyangjiao. Once discovered, immediately monitor it closely and don't lose it!"
After setting up, Su Yian returned to the room.
"What did the prince say when he went out to you?" This was Dongfang Xiaoxin's voice. Obviously she was the most concerned about it. After all, Xiong Chumo might be involved.
"Let me help him with magic projects." Su Yian replied.
"That's it?" Dongfang Xiaoxin was a little doubtful.
""if not? "" Su Yian said speechlessly: "The prince and I are not familiar with each other, and such a big event happened in the prince's palace today. He also wants to care about his grandchildren."
"Okay." Dongfang Xiaoxin said, and then changed her voice: "When do you plan to return to school?"
Beiming Zhiyao looked at Su Yian, and Su Yian said: "I don't know, I have to wait a few days."
"Do you have anything else to do here?" Dongfang Xiaoxin asked.
"Senior sister, don't act like a guard and ask the truth." Su Yian looked at her: "Just take good care of him."
"Uh..." Dongfang Xiaoxin apologized on her face: "I'm sorry, I'm rude."
Su Yian looked at Beiming Zhiyao: "I'm leaving first, where are you?"
Bei Ming Zhiyao said: "I won't leave yet. If you have something important to do, go ahead and take care of it."
"Yes." Su Yian nodded, turned and left.
"Zhiyao, you said he still knows people here. Is there anything important that needs to be done?" Dongfang Xiaoxin asked.
Beiming Zhiyao pinched Dongfang Xiaoxin's cheek: "You and Situ Yue are learning more and more gossip."
"You even spoke for him. You really forgot your sisters when you had a man!" Dongfang Xiaoxin said dissatisfied.
"He's awake." Beiming Zhiyao pointed to the bed: "I'm going out first."
…
Zhengyang City, the provincial capital of Northeast China, is the First National Hospital.
Zong Lan was sitting in front of a hospital bed, peeling an apple in his hand. A doctor was examining the little child on the bed.
Click!
Zong Lan took a bite of the apple and asked aloud, "How's it going?"
The doctor replied: "Miss Zong's life is no longer in danger."
"Are there no problems with her organs?" Zong Lan asked nonchalantly.
The corner of the doctor's mouth twitched, and an unspeakable meaning flashed in his eyes, as if he was shocked by the mother's cruelty.
"Take good care of yourself and there will be no problems." The doctor said quickly.
Zong Lan nodded slightly: "Thank you for your hard work, please go out first."
The doctor bowed to Zong Lan and quickly left the ward, which made him feel cold.
Zong Lan threw the fruit core into the trash can aside, looked at Zong Xinxin who was breathing under an oxygen mask, and smiled slightly: "Xinxin, you have to get better, you have to save your brother."
After Eunuch Tian, Lu Chengwang and others returned to the imperial capital, Zong Lan was already waiting there, and then took a special plane to bring Zong Xinxin back to the Northeast.
Here, Zong Xinxin received the best medical treatment and was brought back from hell.
"Master!"
A voice sounded at the door, and Zong Lan stood up and walked out: "What's the matter?"
"My old master wants to see you."
"knew."
In another special care ward, Zong Lan immediately saw Lu Zhehan's figure looking out of the window.
The strongest person in the Zong family, the previous head of the family, Zong Mingqi, was Zong Lan's father.
"Father, are you looking for me?" Zong Lan looked at him and asked. She knew that Zong Mingqi loved Lu Zhehan the most and regarded him as the hope for the rise of the Zong family.
Zong Mingqi leaned on crutches and turned around: "How is that girl's physical condition?"
"My life is out of danger. I can have a heart transplant after a while of recovery."
"Is there nothing serious about your heart?"
"Nothing unusual."
"That's good."
Seeing Zong Mingqi nodding and breathing a sigh of relief, Zong Lan asked the question that had been bothering him for a long time -
"You seem to attach great importance to Zong Xinxin's bloodline. Is there any reason for this?"
Zong Mingqi glanced at her: "Why, I want to feel sorry for your daughter at this time."
"No." Zong Lan shook his head: "It's just strange. When it comes to matching Han'er's heart, there are actually other choices, but why is Zong Xinxin the best match for him?"
"Because of the Chu family bloodline." Zong Mingqi said lightly: "Although the Chu family is not a magic family, there is a strange gene in the bloodline. I have not discovered the specific effect of this gene, but Zong Xinxin does have it in his body."
"And if Zong Xinxin's heart is transplanted into Han'er, Han'er's talent limit will be increased!"
"Does it have such an effect?" Zong Lan was a little surprised: "If that's the case, why do you want to kill all the Chu family?"
"Because research can't reveal the reason, and I don't want others to know the secret of the Chu family's bloodline." Zong Mingqi's voice was calm, as if he was talking about a very ordinary thing.
Zong Lan felt a chill pass through his body. His father was much more ruthless than him. He just killed the Chu family out of selfish motives and did not want other magic families to progress...
I can't learn this kind of cruelty.
"Is Chu Zhengyang sure he's dead?"
"confirmed."
Zong Mingqi nodded: "Zong Xinxin is the only person in the world who has the blood of the Chu family, so I feel relieved."
Zong Lan lowered his head and said nothing. Zong Mingqi spoke again: "Oh, by the way, how are those things handled? They won't be discovered, right?"
"No, Chu Zhengfan is dead, Chu Zhengyang is dead, Zong Xinxin is also in our hands, no one still knows those secrets."
"Are you sure Zong Xinxin didn't tell anyone else?" Zong Mingqi asked expressionlessly: "Zong Xinxin was kidnapped by the man named Gu Xiao in Liuyang Corner for a while, wasn't he?"
"Who would believe the words of a small warlord from Liuyangjiao? And I also asked Xiao Zhuo to test it, but Gu Xiao didn't know about it."
"That's good." Zong Mingqi said: "I feel relieved about what you do. At first, I thought you were cautious in doing things, so I allowed you to take charge of all the affairs of the Zong family. After so many years, facts have proved that my vision is right. "
"It's all because of your good teachings, father."
"Get the shares of Tianhong Group as soon as possible. This group must be controlled!"
"I have already made an appointment with Lawyer Liu. If he knows the truth, he will know what choice to make!"
…
On the evening of November 12, 2515 in the New Calendar, a five-star hotel in Zhengyang City.
Room 203.
"This is something prepared for you. You must succeed in one attack tomorrow, otherwise your family..."
"Don't worry, but don't forget what you promised me. You must give my family a life without worries about food and clothing."
"Of course!" As he said, the man took out a courier and a piece of paper from the side: "This is the courier you are going to send to Zong Lan tomorrow. Also, this is Zong Lan's regular courier. Disguise it well and don't reveal it. flaw."
"This is my strength, so don't worry."
…
At nine o'clock in the morning on November 13, 2515 in the New Calendar, Tianhong Group Headquarters.
The 30th floor of the office building is the chairman's office. At this time, Zong Lan is sitting in the chairman's position, looking at the forty-year-old man opposite the desk with an indifferent expression.
This man is just an ordinary person, but he is an outstanding hero among ordinary people. He is the president of the Northeastern Province Lawyers Association and a famous barrister in the entire three northeastern provinces.
"Lawyer Liu, you should understand what kind of disaster the will in your hand will bring to you." Zong Lan said lightly: "This is the first time I have discussed this matter face to face with you."
"Hand over the will made by Chu Zhengfan, and I will spare your life."
Lawyer Liu sneered: "I only know the words "law is supreme". Mr. Chu trusted me and handed over the will to me. I will not do anything to regret Mr. Chu."
"Besides, do you dare to kill me?" Lawyer Liu said without fear: "The Zong family is a giant to a small ordinary person like me, but it is nothing in front of the country of Da Qin."
"With the existence of the Magical Constitution, you dare to kill me?"
"In terms of sharp tongue, I won't compare with you, but the "Magic Constitution" can guarantee that you will not be killed by magicians, but ordinary people can."
"The Zong family has been developing for so many years, and there are many people who want to hug our big tree. Lawyer Liu, your life is not guaranteed."
Lawyer Liu smiled lightly: "Before entering this building, I was well prepared, and I can tell you clearly that all conversations between us have been backed up."
Hearing this, Zong Lan frowned slightly and heard Lawyer Liu continue: "To confront a magic family, you must be fully prepared to ensure your life is safe."
"As for, for a dead man?"
"A high-ranking person like you won't understand." Lawyer Liu said calmly: "This is my persistence, you can't take it away."
"Can't you take it away?" Zong Lan stretched her eyebrows and tapped lightly on the desk. Her space window popped up and turned to a picture.
The picture showed a woman and two ten-year-old boys tied together, guarded by two men wearing black suits and holding guns.
"Your wife and two children will let you take away the so-called perseverance."
Lawyer Liu's face turned pale: "Why, how could this happen?"
"Do you think it will be fine if you move your family abroad?" Zong Lan sneered: "Although our family is not as good as a first-class magic family, its strength is not too weak. How can we still have no collaborators abroad?"
"How about a will in exchange for the safety of your family." Zong Lan looked at Lawyer Liu expressionlessly.
"Don't you feel shameful?" Lawyer Liu stared at Zong Lan angrily: "As the head of a magic family, if you do such a despicable and shameless thing, aren't you afraid of the ridicule of other magicians?"
"Does anyone know?" Zong Lan chuckled: "What if you record our conversation? Why don't you hand it over obediently later?"
"You are just an ordinary person after all. This era is an era where magic is supreme!"
Lawyer Liu was so angry that he was shaking all over. He pointed at Zong Lan and couldn't say a word. Finally, he sighed and lowered his arms.
"I'll give you three minutes to make a decision. Don't make a mistake."
After saying that, Zong Lan leaned on the back of the chair, narrowed his eyes, crossed his hands, and tapped the back of his right hand with the index finger of his left hand.
As time passed by second by second, Lawyer Liu's expression kept changing, big beads of sweat kept falling from his forehead, and his clothes were soaked with sweat.
He put his head in his hands and pulled his hair hard. Anyone would hesitate when faced with such a choice.
On the one hand, it is the life of the family, and on the other hand, it is the perseverance in one's heart, which is 'righteousness'.
"Time is up."
Zong Lan opened his eyes and looked at Lawyer Liu calmly: "Make your choice."
Lawyer Liu raised his head and saw the two men guarding his family in the space window raising their guns and pulling the bolts.
"No, don't, let them go, they are innocent."
Facing Lawyer Liu's shouting, Zong Lan said indifferently: "Innocent? No, because they are your family members, and you are the holder of Chu Zhengfan's will."
A common man is not guilty, but he is guilty of carrying a jade!
"I understand..." Lawyer Liu spat out these words with difficulty.
"That's enough." A smile appeared on Zong Lan's face: "No one will know about our conversation, and you will still be a famous lawyer, a lawyer without any stain."
"Let my family go." Lawyer Liu looked up at Zong Lan, his face twisted, and tears could not stop flowing down his cheeks.
"Submit your will, and you will naturally do it."
Lawyer Liu nodded, took out his mobile phone, and was about to make a call, but at this moment——
Tuk Tuk Tuk...
There was a knock on the door, and a voice came in at the same time.
"Master Zong, your express delivery."
Zong Lan glanced at Lawyer Liu, closed the space window, and then said, "Come in."
The door of the office was pushed open, and a man in courier clothes walked in with a bright smile on his face: "Master, your courier."
With a faint smile on his face, Zong Lan looked at the package in the courier's hand and said, "Thank you, Xiao Wang, for your hard work. Put it on the table."
Xiao Wang nodded, walked to the desk and put the package on the table. Then he looked at Zong Lan and said, "Sister Zong, can I open it for you now?"
"No, I'll do it myself this time."
Zong Lan smiled slightly. At this time, Xiao Wang glanced at Lawyer Liu: "Sister Zong, he is..."
"Don't ask so many questions." After saying that, Zong Lan stood up from the chair, magic power appeared at his fingertips, and directly removed the outermost packaging of the package.
After the packaging was removed, a delicate copper box was revealed. Looking at the copper box, Zong Lan's eyes flashed with a smile, and then he stretched out his right hand to pick up the copper box.
The switch of the copper box required fingerprint verification. Zong Lan pressed her right thumb on the copper box with ease. While doing so, she raised her head and glanced at Xiao Wang.
"You haven't left yet?"
There was no doubt in his tone. After all, Xiao Wang had been delivering couriers to her for three years, and there had never been any mistakes. He had been accepted as a peripheral member of the clan.
"I?"
Xiao Wang showed a smile, and Zong Lan frowned slightly. She didn't like this smile very much, and it made people feel flustered.
Zizzi···
At this time, Zong Lan felt a burst of electricity spread throughout her body. She frowned slightly, but she didn't take it to heart yet and looked towards the copper box. At this sight, her face suddenly turned pale.
Inside the copper box, a piece of paper had the word 'death' written on it, and then the piece of paper burned to ashes, revealing a talisman under the piece of paper.
Magic Talisman!
A layer of green light appeared on the surface of the magic talisman. The light condensed into a physical object and became vines. They wrapped around Zong Lan's limbs, waist and neck with lightning speed, making her unable to move. Even the magic power cannot be mobilized.
Because this magic is the eighth-level magic [Trapped Like a Giant Tree], and Zong Lan is only a high-level level 1 magician.
"Wang Zhuang, what's going on?!" Zong Lan's beautiful eyes almost burst into flames as he looked at Wang Zhuang and shouted angrily.
Lawyer Liu on the side looked at the sudden change with wide eyes, his lips trembling and unable to speak.
Wang Zhuang still had a bright smile on his face. He took off his hat, put it on the desk, raised his right hand and gently pulled it on his chin.
The fake face was torn off, and a completely different face came into Zong Lan's sight. The unfamiliar face made Zong Lan panic.
"Who are you? How do you know Wangzhuang?!"
"It doesn't matter who I am, what matters is that the day of your death, head of the clan, has come."
"No, you can't kill me. I am the head of the Zong family. I have a lot of money. I can give you more money than my employer. Don't kill me!" Zong Lan shouted in panic.
Lawyer Liu looked at Zong Lan. Is this the same woman with a great temperament and a calm and calm look just now?
Sure enough, when people face death, their true nature will be revealed.
The man raised a bright smile, revealing his white teeth. Then he raised his right hand and pointed the gun at Zong Lan without saying a word——
"Please, I don't want to die, I don't want to die!"
However--
Bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang!
Eight consecutive gunshots rang out, and the alarm buzzed in the office. Zong Lan looked at the stranger in disbelief, and lowered his head with difficulty to look at his chest and abdomen.
In the eight gun holes, bright red blood dyed the suit red from the inside out. Severe pain spread throughout the body. The vines wrapped around the body disappeared at this time. Zong Lan's body swayed and fell to the ground.
There was blood gushing out of her mouth, leaving her unable to speak a word. Her eyes were fixed on the stranger, and her right hand stretched out with difficulty, as if to crush him, but in the end, it hung weakly on the floor. .
The life in Zong Lan's eyes completely disappeared, but he did not close his eyes and refused to close his eyes.
Bangdang...
Lawyer Liu sat on the ground in fear. The chair under his butt was pushed aside by him. He couldn't believe what was happening in front of him. In Zhengyang City, someone actually dared to assassinate Zong Lan at Tianhong Group!
Chu Zhengfan passed away, and Zong Lan was his wife. There was no problem in temporarily taking over the affairs of Tianhong Group, but now, this woman was assassinated in the office!
"you you you you……"
Lawyer Liu pointed at the killer. At this moment, he lost his sharp tongue and stuttered, unable to speak a word.
The killer glanced at him, with a relieved smile on his face.
Lawyer Liu didn't understand such a smile. He was obviously a killer, so why was it a relief to kill someone? This is so strange!
Deng Deng Deng...
There was a rush of footsteps coming from far away, and then dozens of security guards rushed in. Without exception, they were all magicians, and they were quite powerful.
When the leading security captain saw Zong Lan lying in a pool of blood, his expression immediately changed: "Quick, call an ambulance!!!!"
Then he looked at the killer holding the pistol in his hand, with murderous intent in his eyes: "Take him down, take down this murderer!!!"
As the security captain, he has the responsibility to protect Zong Lan's safety in Tianhong Group. Now that Zong Lan is lying in a pool of blood, he cannot escape the blame. He can clearly understand what will be waiting for him.
We must catch this murderer and make up for the crime with merit!
Facing these magicians who were only at the elementary level, the killer did not put up any resistance and allowed them to take the gun from his hand and roughly press him to the floor.
Let the punches and kicks fall on him.
There was always a smile on his lips.
······
At ten o'clock in the morning on November 13, 2515 in the New Calendar, the First Hospital of Zhengyang City.
The lights in the operating room were turned down, and the attending doctor came out, looked at Zong Mingqi and shook his head: "We tried our best."
Click!
Zong Mingqi directly crushed the crutch in his hand and stared at the attending doctor: "There is no way at all?!"
"The master's magic power is restricted, and the magic bullet that penetrated her body was fire magic, which directly burned her internal organs!"
"Every method has been tried, but all failed!"
Zong Mingqi took a deep breath, his eyes filled with murderous intent: "Where is the killer, take me there!"
Behind him, a Zong family guard nodded in agreement.
