Chapter 379: Why Didn’t I Kill You, Wang Qin?
Chapter 379: Why Didn’t I Kill You, Wang Qin?
"Xu Ernian? Does anyone here know him?"Wang Haoran turned his head, his gaze falling on Jiang Ran, who had returned last.
Jiang Ran said, "He's someone we met while looking for you guys."
Hearing this, Wang Haoran angrily retorted, "So he's a stranger? Jiang Ran, are you crazy? You dare bring a stranger back to the campsite?"
"Do you have any sense of safety at all?"
"Didn't you see? Brother Jiang is dead!! Maybe this stranger is the killer!!!"
Jiang Ran listened.
Recalling how this guy had been speaking to him with sarcasm and insinuation all day today.
Therefore, he decided not to hold back anymore.
Even Liu Bei had moments of anger, let alone him.
He fired back directly:
"You're the one with no sense of safety!"
"So Xu Ernian is a stranger, but Liu Sha beside you isn't a stranger?!"
"Look at you being a bootlicker all day today, did you manage to lick your way to success?!"
Probably not expecting Jiang Ran to dare fight back.
Wang Haoran's fury burned fiercely: "How can Liu Sha be the same as this man?"
"We all saw Liu Sha today, she was chased all the way to us by someone."
"What about him? He appeared out of nowhere. Did you get unanimous agreement from all of us before bringing him here?"
Jiang Ran angrily said, "Fine then, why don't you tell him yourself? Drive him away?! I don't care anyway."
Xu Ernian, who had been watching the drama, was completely caught off guard when the conflict suddenly shifted onto him.
And Wang Haoran also didn't expect Jiang Ran to be as slippery as an eel.
Transferring the conflict between the two of them onto him and this man named Xu Ernian.
Instantly, Wang Haoran was left speechless.
He didn't know what to say.
"Aiyo, I'm really a good guy, I'm here to look for Chen Youliang's treasure."
"Here's my ID card and driver's license, I'm a law-abiding citizen."
In the end, it was Xu Ernian who vouched for his own identity, stating that he absolutely would not do anything illegal.
If they didn't believe him, he could leave right now.
Since the other party had spoken like this, and when you're out traveling, it's better to make a friend than an enemy.
No one stepped forward to insist on driving him away.
They just told him to pitch his tent farther away from theirs.
With Xu Ernian's matter resolved, it was now Jiang Weixin's turn.
Wang Haoran said he had already called the police.
But the police wouldn't arrive until tomorrow.
After all, they were on a mountain over a thousand meters high.
And it was nighttime.
So before the police arrived tomorrow, they needed to preserve the scene.
Of course, before the police came, they could also investigate.
Especially since there was a ready-made witness here.
"Hey, Wang Qin, how did Jiang Weixin die?"
"Who killed him?"
Wang Haoran was incredibly pragmatic.
When Jiang Weixin was alive, he called him "Brother Jiang" every time.
After Jiang Weixin died, he directly called him by his full name.
Including Wang Qin, previously Jiang Weixin's secretary, whom he would have addressed as "Sister Wang."
The others weren't fools;they all saw Wang Haoran's snobbishness.
Truly, when a man departs, the tea grows cold.
Faced with Wang Haoran's inquiry, Wang Qin, as if she had suffered extreme fright earlier, curled up into herself, clothes barely covering her, shivering uncontrollably.
She seemed to live only in her own world, showing no response to the outside inquiries from others.
After Wang Haoran, several others tried asking gently, but Wang Qin remained in that state.
"Alright, you big men, don't you know a girl needs a long time to recover from this kind of shock?"
Wang Qingzhao told everyone else to leave temporarily. She and the Freckled Girl entered the tent to comfort and stabilize Wang Qin's emotions.
Seeing this, the others could only accept it for now.
These people gathered around the campsite's outdoor camping light, sitting in a circle.
No one made a sound.
It seemed no one knew what to say.
Finally, Wang Haoran said, "It would have been better if Wang Qin had died."
The others didn't respond.
They all understood the meaning behind his words.
After all, Wang Haoran and a few others were all working at Jiang Weixin's company.
Relying on their university classmate relationship, they were soaring high with boundless prospects, but with Jiang Weixin's death...
One could say their future was directly severed...
Fatty spoke up at this moment: "Haoran, you said Brother Jiang is dead, what will happen to the company he started? Who will inherit it?"
Wang Haoran sneered, "Definitely his biological father! Who else?! After all, the startup capital for the company was money his biological father gave him!"
Fatty was puzzled, "Huh? Really? I remember Brother Jiang was from a single-parent family, just a mother? I always thought he built his success from scratch?!"
Wang Haoran, as Jiang Weixin's most ass-kissing lackey.
Naturally knew many more secrets than Fatty, Zhong Hui, and the Freckled Girl, who also worked at Jiang Weixin's company.
He began narrating leisurely: "You've probably seen Jiang Weixin's mother, right? She's so beautiful, a woman in her forties who looks like she's in her twenties or thirties."
"Generally speaking, many beautiful women have stories, and his mother is no exception."
"His mother was the other woman when she was young, following a rich man, a married man."
"But because that rich man had a wife, it was always kept secret."
"Then, just as Jiang Weixin was about to graduate, his father's original wife died. So his father married Jiang Weixin's mother, and after Jiang Weixin graduated from university, directly invested a sum of money for him to start a business."
"You guys are just too naive. In this world, how many people truly build their success from scratch?"
"Either they rely on their parents, or they marry a rich wife. If you search the backgrounds of many successful people, most are like this."
After Wang Haoran finished saying this.
Wang Qingzhao and the Freckled Girl had comforted Wang Qin and helped her over to the group.
By then, although Wang Qin's long hair was disheveled, and her face still bore traces of tears and terror.
She was fully dressed.
Supported by the two women, she slowly sat down.
Although the camping light in front only provided illumination, it also inadvertently offered a formal sense of warmth.
"Wang Qin, can you tell us what exactly happened now?"
Wang Haoran inquired.
Wang Qin sobbed for a while, then said:
"They all went to look for you guys, and I stayed at the campsite with Weixin."
"Later, we got a bit tired and wanted to rest in the tent for a while. We never expected that the person wearing the white mask who appeared during the day showed up again. He, he directly ambushed with an axe and hacked Weixin to death... wuwuwu..."
Everyone listening to this looked at each other in bewilderment.
Wang Haoran was confused: "Person wearing a white mask? Who is he?!"
Wang Haoran and Liu Sha were not at the campsite at the time.
There was also the newly joined Xu Ernian, who also didn't know anything about a white-masked man.
Therefore.
Fatty told them about how Jiang Weixin and Wang Qin went for a walk in the mountain forest and ended up being chased by the white-masked man.
He also mentioned how Zhong Hui saw that white-masked man coming down the mountain.
"Damn, a madman! A complete psychopath!"
Upon hearing that the one who killed Jiang Weixin was actually a masked stranger.
Wang Haoran cursed incessantly in his heart.
After all, this person killing Jiang Weixin wasn't the main issue.
What mattered was that it ruined his future!
"Hey, wait! That's not right?! Then why did that white-masked man kill Jiang Weixin but not attack you? If he had killed you too, wouldn't it have been done without anyone knowing?!"
Wang Haoran suddenly discovered a very important point.
