004. This job is not that job

He Xianya snorted coldly: "Hmph, yes. He relaxed, but the problem left by the old man was not simple at all."

After thinking about it, Qiao Feng asked, "The question is...is the inheritance?"

He Xianya did not deny it and continued: "It was almost a month after my father's death that an inheritance lawyer came to inform me. You can imagine how problematic my father's inheritance is, right? Moreover, my father's inheritance is much more complicated than I thought."

Xia Yu next to him seemed to want to say something, and Qiao Feng also knew what his wife wanted to say. However, now he is not pursuing why his employer is too confused about the matter of his father's death for a month, but he asked directly: "How complicated is it?"

He Xianya breathed out and shook her head: "You should know that as my father's child, I am the second child. There is a big brother above me and a younger brother below me. There has always been only three of us."

"But... when the inheritance lawyer told me that when my father died, he even told me that in addition to the three of us, there were seven other first-ranked heirs! You said, suddenly seven people came out to compete for the inheritance with you. How disgusting is this?"

The first heir refers to the immediate relatives of the inherited person, including the biological children, husband or wife, and parents.

According to Qiao Feng's understanding, Mr. He Runxi's wife had long passed away, and he had not heard of him as a remarriage recently. His parents had already passed away.

So say...

"Does the other seven first-ranked heirs refer to...?"

He Xianya breathed out and nodded: "That's right. They are said to be my father's illegitimate children. The mother of our three siblings died after giving birth to my brother. Ha... In other words, since my mother died, our father has started sowing seeds everywhere outside. So many wild species pop up now to compete for the inheritance with us?"

Now Qiao Feng finally understood why he had signed the confidential document just now. Having said that, the so-called great charity…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

Qiao Feng calmed down his spirit, took a breath, and began to say with a more serious expression: "I probably understand what it means. In other words, Ms. He and your brother and brother do not recognize these seven half-sisters and refuse to divide the inheritance with them. Is that right? Well...but isn't it more appropriate to find a lawyer for this kind of question?"

He Xianya put the teacup in her hand on the table with annoyed expression and said with disgust: "What's the use of Lawyer Zhao? Do you give each of them a DNA appraisal? If you find out that they are indeed my younger brother and sister, don't you have to divide the inheritance? What's more, the inheritance lawyer said that these seven wild species were all located one by one before my father died. It seems that my father was secretly taking care of them without hiding them. The chance of being a wild species should be very high."

She tapped the table with her fingers, frowned, and continued, "And if she really made a fuss in court, the court might also determine that a few of them had special difficulties to get more share of the estate. This is something I absolutely do not want to see."

Qiao Feng turned his head and looked at Xia Yu beside him. Xia Yu also looked up at his husband at this moment.

“……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

Qiao Feng opened his mouth. Xia Yu nodded gently as if he understood it. He jumped up from the chair and walked into the bedroom. When he turned around, he also paid attention to locking the door.

At this point, Qiao Feng took a deep breath. He touched his forehead and his eyes began to appear sharp. He hugged each other with his hands, pressed against the table, and looked directly at the lady.

"So... Ms. He Xianya. What are you trying to entrust with us?

He Xianya also lowered her voice at this moment and said softly—

"After a week, we need to go to a private island of my dad as required by the first part of my dad's will. There, the estate lawyer will announce the remaining part of my dad's inheritance. No matter how I think about it, my dad's will shouldn't be too stingy with the seven bastards. So, I hope you can help me, help me... let those seven bastards have no way to... set foot on the island in a week."

The winter sun outside the window is covered by haze layer by layer.

The weak and powerless light looked less than a strong flashlight.

Qiao Feng's face looked so cold now.

He didn't say anything, but his eyes were staring at the lady in front of him. It took a long time... for a long time... and it almost made people think that the temperature in the room had dropped below zero. The coldness that made people jumped up from the bottom of their feet seemed to have even the cup of tea on the table in an instant.

"Hahahaha..."

Qiao Feng laughed, a relaxed look appeared on his face, and he said—

"Ms. He, you are joking. It seems that my detective office is here. But your commission... seems to be a little too 'deviant'. I have said before that it doesn't matter if you stumble on the legal boundaries. But if it goes too far, it's a big joke."

"Do I look like a joke?"

He Xianya sneered, and then her voice seemed so cold-

"Although I haven't investigated your detective firm much, my friend has introduced that the predecessor of Yuxuefeng Detective Firm... is a top super killer."

………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

This silence almost freezes the blood of the heart.

In the room behind him, Xiaoxue's shouts and shouts were heard.

The excitement in the room and the indifference outside almost formed the most strange contrast.

Is the snow coming this year...a little too early?

Is this cold feeling, even the residual moisture in the air, began to condense and turn into stars, echoing in this room, looking at this man who had fallen into the abyss of hell with a mocking tone?

“Ms. He, I think you may have misunderstood something.”

Qiao Feng put the documents in his hand together and respectfully stuffed them into the file bag. Then, he pushed them back in front of He Xianya little by little.

"That title of top super killer is definitely a past that should not be mentioned for me, a good citizen now. I have been punished and know that the consequences of the crime are terrible. Now I am just a detective who is a common detective firm. What kind of killer and what kind of killer... Haha, I don't know."

He Xianya did not take back the documents, but continued to stare at Qiao Feng and said, "You should be short of money now, right? Just look at the decoration at your home. How about it? Do you want to think about it? Money is definitely not a problem."

Qiao Feng: "I think you misunderstood more deeply. I do need money, but the only thing I understand now is to work hard to be a little detective that is not recognized by the law, and try to solve some things like finding mistresses, finding cats and dogs, poaching people, and exploring ** to make some money. Our Yuxuefeng Detective Firm can only do these, and our ability makes us only do these. And your request... Sorry. I really don't know what you are talking about. Now it seems that there is really no possibility of cooperation between us. But please rest assured. I have forgotten what you said just now, and you don't have to worry about anything at all. Even if a policeman comes to ask in the future, I will only say that I don't remember anything."

After saying that, Qiao Feng stood up, walked to the front door, and opened the door.

Although it was a pity that the fat sheep that was at the mouth was let go directly. However, he still felt that his current approach was the most correct.

After so many years, he has now made it very clear how correct the sentence "Don't cause trouble" is. Although the detective's job is to contact trouble. But there are some troubles, he just hopes that he will not touch them again in his life.

However, He Xianya did not stand up now.

The lady laughed, nodded in a haha, and said, "I didn't expect that Detective Qiao Feng is so humorless. I'm just kidding. Killing is illegal. Do you think I will need you to do such a terrible thing? And, it's just seven lives in one go?"

Qiao Feng stared at the noble lady's eyes.

This sharp vision seems to penetrate the human soul and reach the depths of that person's heart!

The lady turned her head away.

This was a very small action. However, when Qiao Feng saw this action, he breathed a sigh of relief, sat back opposite her, and smiled: "You must not make such jokes, it's very terrible."

Yes, it is indeed very terrifying... What this noble lady thought in her mind just now must not be an ordinary joke.

Qiao Feng also believed that he really hoped that these seven people would die.

However, Qiao Feng also believes that this is a very normal emotion. After all, everyone has thought that someone will die and hope that others will die is not a very rare emotion. Even the kindest person should have the mood to die if he wants someone to die. This is human nature, and human nature has its dark side, just look at it more plainly. After all, thinking about it is different from really doing it, right?

"Since you're kidding, then what's the one you're looking for me and really want to entrust our firm?"

Qiao Feng smiled with a relaxed tone, hoping to dilute the layer of frost that had just been shrouded in the room.

“It’s very simple.”

He Xianya also seemed much more relaxed, and said—

"My father loved to guess riddles very much during his lifetime. So, I think there should be some puzzles and the like in his will. I want to hire you detective firm to go to my father's private island with me. At the same time, given that you were a super killer before..."

"Haha, please don't mention the killer~~"

"Okay, I need you to be my bodyguard. Detective and bodyguard. This is my commission. How about it? Will you accept it?" (To be continued...)
