718: Brother Tianming stepped forward to support and wipe out the entire Huo family!
In the center of the wasteland.
A charred male corpse was tightly bound to a chair with iron chains.
His body looked severely damaged, clearly having suffered immense torture before his death.
The corpse's skin was burned black, with some muscles carbonized, emitting a pungent, burnt smell.
His limbs were twisted and deformed, as if narrating the pain he endured in life.
All his fingers were cut off, his ears were severed, and some parts were even charred black, a truly horrific sight—
Tragic!
Tragic!!!
Tragic!!!!!!!
How can one word fully describe the tragedy?! ┌(.Д.)┐!
Suzaku War General and the others couldn't help but gasp at the tragic scene.
They couldn't fathom what kind of deep-seated hatred could drive a "murderer" to torment someone to such an extent?!
"Could this... this person be Blackbelly Snake?"
"..."
Suzaku War General murmured in a low voice, a hint of disbelief in her tone.
A forensic professional quickly stepped forward, carefully examined the body, and confirmed with a nod:
"Through professional comparison, we can confirm this body is Blackbelly Snake himself."
"And the time since he was burned to death is no more than an hour, which means..."
"This bloody massacre happened an hour ago."
"..."
Hearing this news, the soldiers cautiously looked around, instinctively gripping their firearms tighter.
They feared that the terrifying and cruel "murderer" had not yet left and was lurking nearby.
Waiting for an opportunity to jump out and launch a surprise attack on them.
At this moment, Su Fan, with an expressionless face, coldly surveyed his surroundings.
He said indifferently, "There's no one nearby."
With his powerful sensory abilities, he had already scanned the area and confirmed that there was no one else around.
Of course, he considered himself invincible and fearless, so he didn't care if he was ambushed.
Then.
He turned to Suzaku War General and asked with a frown:
"Who is the employer of these useless people? Have you found out?"
"Or... do you have any suspects?"
"..."
Previously, Su Fan had asked this question.
But at that time, Suzaku War General was hesitant, as if she had some unspoken difficulty, saying she wasn't sure and needed to investigate further... Su Fan hadn't taken it too seriously then.
He had planned to interrogate Blackbelly Snake himself after catching him.
Who would have thought that the other party was already "dead"?
Now that all leads were cut off, he could only settle for second best and ask Suzaku War General again if she had any other clues.
Even if it was just a suspect, a rough direction for investigation would be helpful... Hearing this.
Suzaku War General subconsciously frowned, a hint of hesitation flashing in her eyes.
She really didn't want to disclose information about the relevant "suspect" at this time... Given her understanding of Su Fan's arrogant personality!
Once he learned of the suspect's information, he was very likely to act irrationally.
But under the increasingly sharp gaze of Su Fan, she still gritted her teeth, her voice tinged with hesitation... "Mr. Su, regarding the employer who hired these people, we are still investigating..."
"Currently, there is no conclusive evidence, but there is a suspect..."
"..."
Su Fan coldly interrupted her: "Who is it?"
Suzaku War General hesitated for a moment, then stammered:
"According to our preliminary investigation, it might be related to the Huo Family... especially to Huo Qichen..."
"But further investigation and confirmation are needed."
"..."
Su Fan narrowed his eyes, a flicker of anger in them:
"Huo Qichen? Hmph, (•́へ•́╬) it really is him!!!"
"..."
Suzaku War General quickly added:
"Mr. Su, it's not confirmed yet, we are just suspicious."
"More evidence is needed to fully confirm the identity of the mastermind!"
"..."
Su Fan sneered, a hint of disdain in his tone:
"Evidence? I don't need evidence."
"My intuition tells me that this matter is most likely related to the Huo Family."
"..."
After all, the biggest conflict and friction with his little sister's family during this period had been with the Huo Family.
Regardless of motive, methods, and all other aspects, it seemed perfectly reasonable.
The more Su Fan thought about it, the more he felt his judgment was correct, and he turned and left without a word...
