Chapter 502 Revisiting Kyoto, A Generous Gift Presented!
The sound was not loud.
But it could be heard clearly from the third floor.
In such a place, anything unexpected will attract extra attention.
Therefore, this dark figure must be investigated immediately!
Not very likely,
People who had been sitting peacefully in the conference room suddenly gathered downstairs.
but,
It's not just them anymore.
Many people have already gathered downstairs.
"I think I just saw someone fall from the roof. Did you guys see it?"
"Was it a person? I only saw a dark shadow."
"What dark figure? I thought someone's clothes had been blown out of the window by the wind."
"It's just ahead, let's go take a look."
Along the way, some people were talking about it as they walked.
But when they actually got close, the scene instantly spiraled out of control!
"This...this...is this really a person?"
"Isn't this Lin Sha?"
"Lin Sha? Old Shen's adjutant?"
"Of course! How... how did it get into this state?"
Those who can appear here must have had a military career.
Some of them were even people with outstanding military achievements and made great contributions.
If it were just a normal accident, would they be so alarmed?
of course not.
And now, the reason they are so panicked is...
It was entirely because the sand beneath their feet had completely lost its human form!
One ear has disappeared.
The wound was still there, jagged and uneven, as if it had been torn apart by some wild animal.
Hands and feet, both are broken.
Some even broke into several pieces.
Although the muscles were still connected, the bones inside were clearly deformed!
As for the face,
To put it nicely, it has a face; to put it bluntly, it's a black pit!
With the nose as the center, about the length of a finger, it is completely concave.
The bruise was completely hidden under the skin, and had turned purplish-black.
From a distance, it really does look like...
"Get out of the way!"
A sharp rebuke interrupted everyone's train of thought.
Shen Hongyan has arrived.
He pushed through the crowd, and when he reached the very center...
The sight of the person lying on the ground made Shen Hongyan's eyes narrow sharply!
He just watched, without saying a word.
this moment,
Time seemed to stand still.
The personal adjutant has fallen to such a state.
This is no longer as simple as just Lin Sha dying.
Instead, someone was warning Shen Hongyan!
As for who this person is...
click!
Shen Hongyan clenched his fist tightly.
"Investigate! Investigate right now!!!"
Do we need to check again?
Do I need to check?
There's absolutely no need for it, but Shen Hongyan still said so.
Why?
He wanted to use his personal feud with Anyang as a pretext for open action!
but,
Not finished yet.
Just as Shen Hongyan was panting heavily and remained silent,
"Old Shen, check his pockets... is there something there?"
At this moment, Lin Sha lay quietly on the ground.
His attire was neat, and his expression was serene.
The only awkward thing was the bulging pocket on his chest.
Shen Hongyan gave him a look,
Immediately, someone stepped forward from behind and, without saying a word, unhooked the pocket on Lin Sha's chest.
As soon as the button was unbuttoned,
Glug!
A piece of blood-red stuff was squeezed out of his pocket and rolled to the ground!
"Grass!"
The person who turned over was startled.
But after seeing what was displayed, he abruptly took a step back.
"Hand...finger!"
Yes,
Fingers
Not only Shen Hongyan saw it, but everyone around also saw it clearly.
But the problem is,
Although Lin Sha's hands and feet were broken, he still had all ten fingers.
So what is this finger?
I don't know why,
At the scene, Shen Hongyan, who was in the highest position and was always the most composed, visibly paused!
"Pick it up, quick... pick it up!"
what?
The person squatting nearby, conducting the body search, was taken aback.
"yes!"
Just as the finger was picked up and was about to be handed over,
Shen Hongyan's hand had already reached out and pulled him away!
Place it in front of you and examine it carefully.
one second,
"Anyang!"
"Anyang!!!"
With a roar, Shen Hongyan staggered backward, looking as if he was about to fall!
"Boss!"
Fortunately, the people nearby reacted quickly and stepped forward to help him up.
"What...what's wrong, boss?"
Yes,
The people around them were also completely bewildered.
Even though it was Shen Hongyan's personal adjutant who died, there's no need to be this sad, is there?
Furthermore,
Lin Sha had already lost count of how many times he had served as Shen Hongyan's adjutant.
When those people died before, Shen Hongyan wasn't this heartbroken.
I was wondering...
Shen Hongyan's trembling hand gently rose.
The finger being held had a visible stitched wound.
If it wasn't Shen Jingnian's, then whose could it be?
"Over the years!"
"It's been in Anyang's hands for years!"
Anyang!
Until those two words were uttered,
Swish! ! !
Instantly, everyone's expression changed!
"An Yang, I heard, is... is someone who recently arrived in Kyoto."
"Then you're wrong. He didn't just land in Kyoto; he's always been a Kyoto resident!"
"Kyoto? Anyang? Is that the same place as Shinkai, the head of the criminal investigation team?"
"Ha, if he were just a criminal investigation team leader, do you think Old Shen would have let him live until now?"
Obviously,
Everyone here has heard the name Anyang.
Moreover, they all looked fearful!
It's not that they're afraid,
Rather, they knew that the recent unrest in Kyoto was all related to Anyang!
What's most chilling upon closer examination is that...
Given Shen Hongyan's position and rank, who in the entire capital city would dare to challenge him?
Let alone challenge them,
Even if you don't go along with him, you'll still lose something to some extent.
Some have family assets, others have the power they wield.
Even worse, in some cases, not a single member of the entire family survived!
Although these matters were never discussed openly, and no one explicitly stated that Shen Hongyan was behind them,
but,
This is like an unspoken rule.
Everyone knows it was Shen Hongyan who did it, but no one dares to mention it!
But now, things seem different!
Lin Sha, who was thrown from the building, was the beginning!
The finger has been found.
Moreover, it wasn't just one.
Inside the bulging pocket, Shen Jingnian's four newly reattached fingers were all there, not one missing!
and,
A letter was tucked between her fingers.
The text is very simple.
"On my return to Kyoto, I present this generous gift."
Signed, Anyang!
"Kill him! I'm going to kill him!!!"
Even Shen Hongyan could not withstand such provocation.
Losing control is normal.
It was only natural that the letter was torn to shreds.
However, what surprised everyone around him was that Shen Hongyan uttered those three words in public this time.
Kill him!
And it was precisely at the moment when Shen Hongyan lost his composure,
"Mr. Shen, isn't it inappropriate to speak like that in public?"
Ok?
How dare you speak so bluntly about Shen Hongyan?
Looking back,
Everyone looked at them with puzzled expressions.
however,
After seeing who it was...
All the confusion vanished instantly.
Instead, they lowered their heads and stepped back, voluntarily making way for each other!
