Daily Intelligence System: Don't Kill Me, Honey!

Chapter 325: Chapter 137 The Death of Peng Shizhong!_4

After hearing this, Feng Xuan said, ”Let’s wait until Chief Zhang finishes the autopsy; I absolutely won’t allow you to frame my fifth brother!”

”Yes, yes, how could Jiu Si kill his own adoptive father? It must be a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding!”

Zhou Chu also spoke up at this time.

Hearing this, Lu Rong said, ”Hmm, we trust the character of the fifth brother; it couldn’t have been him.”

Peng Fu said, ”Yes, Jiu Si could not be the murderer.”

Chen Jie’s popularity was still good, so at this moment, no one believed that he killed Peng Shizhong, much less that he would kill his adoptive father over such a ridiculous excuse as fighting over a young woman.

Nan Batian said, ”Rest assured, we will not wrong a good person, nor will we let a bad person go, Jiu Si you can be at ease.”

At this time, Chen Jie watched everything, remaining silent; he didn’t believe that this matter would be so simple.

Then Nan Batian looked towards Zhang Liye and said, ”Chief Zhang, you are the expert in this area, how did my fellow disciple die?”

At this time, Zhang Liye’s expression was very grim, and beside him, Wu Hong’s face was also tinged with aghast iron blue, his eyes on Chen Jie filled with helplessness, and even a hint of doubt.

Chen Jie had a bad premonition.

Zhang Liye then said, ”After my inspection, the deceased had no apparent external injuries, but the fatal wound is this palm strike to the chest!”

Zhang Liye then opened up the clothes at the chest, revealing a clearly visible dark palm imprint.

Zhang Liye said, ”The deceased died from this palm strike, resulting in a ruptured heart.”

Hearing this, Nan Batian carefully looked, and his face instantly turned extremely grim, exclaiming, ”[Stone Breaking Hand]”

”What!”

Hearing this, everyone looked horrified towards Nan Batian. Stone Breaking Hand? Peng Shizhong actually died from his own signature martial arts move!

Nan Batian said, ”I’m not mistaken, this palm power is definitely Stone Breaking Hand! Elder Liu, you’ve known my fellow disciple for many years, take a look.”

Liu Laoguai then glanced at it, his expression turning odd, and then he looked towards Chen Jie frowning, ”Yes, Stone Breaking Hand, there’s no mistake!”

”Stone , Stone Breaking Hand!”

With the confirmation from two of the Mianshui Thirteen Grand Protectors, everyone also affirmed that it indeed was Stone Breaking Hand.

At this, the entire White Tiger Hall felt like they were struck by lightning, and then all eyes turned towards Chen Jie.

Chen Jie sharply inhaled a breath of cold air.

This was the real killer move!

Stone Breaking Hand, Peng Shizhong’s signature technique, was also considered the martial arts all successors of the White Tiger Hall had to learn.

It goes without saying, whoever mastered Stone Breaking Hand, would be the future successor of White Tiger Hall.

And who could perform Stone Breaking Hand?

Currently, according to the people of White Tiger Hall, only Chen Jiusi knew how to perform Stone Breaking Hand!

”How can this be possible!”

At this, numerous people sharply inhaled a cold breath, they couldn’t accept the ’fact’ of Chen Jie having killed the Hall Master, but all the evidence clearly pointed out that only Chen Jiusi had the motive and ability to commit the crime.

This Stone Breaking Hand, only Chen Jiusi could perform!

At this time, Zhou Chu’s face was full of confusion, looking at Chen Jie, wanting to ask for an explanation.

Wu Hong also slightly frowned, Jiu Si was too reckless!

At this time, Lu Rong was also brimming with a confused and helpless expression.

Peng Fu stood there dumbfounded, his eyes filled with disbelief.

At this moment, Feng Xuan took a step back and said, ”No, no, this is impossible, this is impossible; Jiu Si, how could Jiu Si kill his adoptive father!”

Upon hearing Feng Xuan’s words, Qin Ying sneered, ”What’s impossible? When you eliminate all the impossibilities, whatever remains, no matter how improbable, must be the truth. Throughout the whole White Tiger Hall, or even the whole Mianshui County, or perhaps the entire world, only Chen Jiusi can perform Stone Breaking Hand. If Old Peng died from Stone Breaking Hand and it wasn’t him, then who was it!”

”Maybe, maybe it’s not Stone Breaking Hand, right? Could it have been misidentified?”

Hearing this, Qin Ying said, ”Mianshui Thirteen Grand Protectors, with Guild Leader Nan and Guild Leader Liu being the foremost, now both gang leaders confirmed it’s Stone Breaking Hand, could there still be a mistake?”

”How can this be possible! Jiu Si!”

Feng Xuan, in an overwhelmingly distressed state, now had tears in his eyes, a look of disbelief as he called out Chen Jie’s name.

”Jiu Si, please tell everyone, this isn’t your doing, you didn’t kill your adoptive father, Jiu Si!”

Throughout, Chen Jie had remained calm, until he saw the Stone Breaking Hand imprint on Peng Shizhong’s chest, only then did he realize how big of a trap had been set against him.

But even now, he couldn’t figure out how the other party had learned to perform Stone Breaking Hand!

He heard from his adoptive father that this was a unique technique; back in the day, his master had only taught it to him alone!

With the Stone Breaking Hand imprint as evidence, he was beyond defense; Chen Jie knew that the other party had definitely set a huge trap, yet he didn’t expect it to be this massive.

At this point, anything he said would be wrong.

Trying to defend himself would only make everyone view him as making excuses; if he acted recklessly, the other party would surely think he was acting out of fury and shame.

So, in his view, he was already trapped like a fish in a jar.

Chen Jie was almost certain now that this matter was related to Feng Xuan, perhaps even Feng Xuan had killed his adoptive father, but there was no evidence.

But how could he have escaped?

When he entered the room, he was first informed by Huadie to wait at the door for a while, as his adoptive father needed to get dressed.

He thought it was just so, but unexpectedly what he was met with was a shout of ’traitorous son,’ and then he rushed in, and it was as such.

He was beyond defense, that shout of ’traitorous son,’ was it called out by his adoptive father?

It was all a setup for him.

And now Feng Xuan was putting on an act; at this moment, Chen Jie also finally understood why Feng Xuan had been abnormal these past few days, why he had been transferring his authority, even proactively handing over his rights over Peace Street to Zhou Chu.
