Chapter 69 Hongmen Banquet

Xiang Lei Courtyard!

Li Kui walked slowly on the road, turned a corner, and bumped into two people, Huang Youming and Zhao Tongli.

At this time, Zhao Tongli was sitting in a wheelchair, with Huang Youming pushing him behind.

"Master Kui, are you going to the banquet too?"

Huang Youming said hello, looking up at the tall and strong Li Kui, and suddenly felt a sense of disharmony in his heart.

It seemed that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell what was wrong for a while.

"Um."

Li Kui nodded and looked at Zhao Tongli, who had a bandage around his eyes.

Logically speaking, this person was seriously injured and should lie on the bed and take a good rest.

"Could it be..."

Li Kui couldn't help but said in surprise: "Brother Zhao is also going to the banquet?"

Zhao Tongli came back to his senses, sighed, and said feebly: "How dare I refuse to accept the cordial invitation from the elder."

The tone was full of helplessness and some resentment.

Huang Youming smiled bitterly and said: "I don't know why, Elder Xiang insists on Lao Zhao attending."

The first level of officialdom crushes people to death.

Xiang Zhisheng told him that even if Zhao Tongli was seriously injured, he would still crawl over to attend the dinner.

The three of them walked forward together.

When he arrived at the door of the other courtyard, Li Kui found two strong men standing in front of the door. They were both bald, with bare breasts, and their bodies were full of flesh, facing fiercely.

A tall and thick man, with a leopard head and eyes, and a face full of stubble.

The other was a tall white man with several scars on his face, no eyebrows, and was chewing something in his mouth.

"Do you know me?"

Huang Youming's eyes flashed and he asked in a low voice.

Zhao Tongli couldn't see it, so he was naturally asking Li Kui.

"never seen it."

Li Kui looked at it and shook his head slightly.

Two bald men stood leaning against the wall. When they saw the maids passing by, they stared at their chests, whistled, and even stretched out their hands to pinch their buttocks.

Li Kui and three others came to the door.

The two bald men looked at them and showed no intention of coming forward to salute. They continued to act as if no one was watching and did whatever they wanted.

Upon seeing this, Li Kui and Huang Youming looked at each other and already guessed the identities of these two people.

Step through the door.

When he looked up, he saw Lu Dabo, Luo Jing and others standing in the yard chatting.

When everyone saw Zhao Tongli in the wheelchair, they all reacted with surprise and came forward to say hello.

After a few words of conversation, a maid ran over and saluted: "Dear third-level cadres, the dinner is ready. I would like to ask the elders to move to the garden to dine."

She stretched out her hand and made a gesture of invitation, "Please come with me, slave."

Everyone follows.

After a while, they came to the garden. On the grass covered with flowers, there was a large round table with eleven chairs.

The table is filled with delicacies and the aroma is fragrant.

Xiang Zhisheng has already taken his seat.

"Meet Elder Xiang."

Seeing this, everyone hurried forward and saluted in unison.

"You're welcome, please take a seat." Xiang Zhisheng smiled, giving people a friendly feeling.

However, everyone felt a chill, their expressions were tense, their movements were cautious, and they even dared not breathe.

After a while, Yan Shaojun also came and sat next to Xiang Zhisheng.

"Everyone is here, let's have a dinner."

Xiang Zhisheng raised his glass and looked around, "I'd like to toast you all."

"Respect to the elder!" Li Kui and others raised their glasses to each other, and then drank it all in one gulp.

At this time, two figures walked silently behind Xiang Zhisheng, one on the left and one on the right.

Li Kui turned his head and saw that the two men were the bald men he met at the door.

Huang Youming couldn't help but ask: "Elder Xiang, who are these two?"

Xiang Zhi Shengdan smiled and said: "They are my apprentices, this is Huang Gui, and this is Habipu."

The two yellow-headed strong men had no expression on their faces. They just cupped their hands casually at the crowd, then crossed their hands in front of their chests, standing behind Xiang Zhisheng like two pillars, without squinting.

They didn't even sit down to eat when they came, they just stood upright, not knowing what they meant, which made everyone feel unsure.

Xiang Zhisheng played with the wine glass and said slowly: "You must already know the purpose of my coming here, so I won't mince words. Xiang Qing was killed and Xiang Lei disappeared. Who committed these two crimes?

people……"

He looked at everyone at the wine table one by one and said word by word, "Among you!"

As soon as these words came out!

Everyone's expressions changed drastically. You looked at me and I looked at you.

Luo Jing looked at the others and asked, "Please explain to the elders who did it?"

Xiang Zhisheng smiled and said: "Let's talk about Xiang Qing being killed first. Let me ask you, who among you will benefit the most from Xiang Qing's death?"

Luo Jing blinked and said hesitantly: "Ah, it seems that no one is profiting from this."

Xiang Zhisheng shook his head and said, "No, one person has benefited greatly." He raised his hand and suddenly pointed at Li Kui, "Is that so, Mr. Kui?"

Li Kui remained silent and said calmly: "I don't understand what Elder Xiang is talking about. Please clarify."

Xiang Zhisheng put down his hands and said coldly: "Xiang Qing has always wanted to be promoted to a third-level cadre, but Yan Dafeng has always tried to shirk his efforts and refused to give him a chance.

After you appeared, Yan Dafeng couldn't wait to reuse you, and even directly promoted you as an exception, taking away Xiang Qing's opportunity in an attempt to stop Xiang Qing's idea.

Regarding this matter, Xiang Lei and Xiang Qing naturally cannot give up. They will definitely cause trouble for you, and it is possible to kill you.

But at this moment, Xiang Qing was suddenly killed, and your position was secured, right?"

Li Kui thought for a while and said calmly: "It is understandable for Elder Xiang to think this way, but on the other hand, I am already a third-level cadre, so there is no need to risk killing people, right?"

Xiang Zhisheng squinted and said, "Master Kui is indeed a calm person, but it's a pity that you are still too young.

You stayed in the refugee camp, and Wu Chengdong's brother and sister died. Not long after you arrived at Sandangkou, Xiang Qing was killed again.

Haha, the traces are so obvious. If you are not suspected, then who is?

In addition, I also found out that you often make Hongqi Guiyuan Decoction to nourish your body, which costs a lot of money. But when you came out of the refugee camp, you couldn't even afford clothes. Where did you get so much money?

Coming?"

After hearing this, the eyes of Huang Youming and others looking at Li Kui suddenly changed.

Li Kui still said calmly: "These specious remarks are too far-fetched. Where is the direct evidence?"

Xiang Zhisheng immediately raised his hand and snapped his fingers.

next moment.

Two men in black came over escorting a maid, their hair was disheveled and their faces could not be seen.

"Kneel down!"

The maid was thrown to the ground. She slowly raised her head, then her eyes lit up and she shouted: "Master Kui!"

"Xiao Bi?"

Li Kui narrowed his eyes slightly.

That maid turned out to be Xiao Bi. At this moment, her face was swollen and stained with tears.

Xiang Zhisheng said coldly: "Xiao Bi, let me ask you, was your Mr. Kui not sleeping in the room the night Xiang Qing was killed?"

Xiaobi looked at Li Kui, her eyes filled with fear, and she lowered her head and said, "Yes, the wind picked up that night. I went to close the window for Mr. Kui and found that he was not in the room."

Peng!
