…
Qin Fang returned to his room and disposed of the two corpses. Even the ashes completely disappeared with a wave of his hand.
In the mountain forest, Director Fu searched for two or three hours. Except for two bloodstains, he found nothing.
The two bloodstains were in two different positions, and a large number of bullet shells were found in one of them, but he did not hear any gunshots. This gave Director Fu a headache.
A few hours later, Director Fu returned to the Fu family with two blood samples. He arranged for someone to test the two blood samples.
Originally, he planned to go to Qin Fang and Ishihara's courtyard to see if they had returned, but considering that such an action was not appropriate, he had to give up.
However, Director Fu went to the family head, Fu Qinglin, because he felt that this matter seemed to have become very strange. He vaguely felt that in this mountain forest, in addition to Qin Fang and Ishihara, there might be someone else …
Mt. Bagong was the Fu family's territory, especially some special places, which were forbidden areas of the Fu family. But now, there might be someone lurking in with a large number of weapons and ammunition. Director Fu could not help but be sensitive.
"How is it?"
When Chief Steward Fu came over, Fu Qinglin was not resting and was still cultivating. However, he did not make Chief Steward Fu wait for too long before he woke up and personally inquired about this matter. He seemed to be quite concerned about this matter.
"Family head, I'm afraid there is a slight deviation …"
Director Fu shook his head and reported some of the situations he encountered to Fu Qinglin, including some of his own speculations.
Fu Qinglin did not care very much at first. After all, Ishihara's death was very good news for the Fu family. He even thought about blocking the Cui family's attack for Qin Fang if necessary.
However, Director Fu's discovery made him feel that things seemed to be a little troublesome, and it was a little beyond his expectations.
In particular, this group of unidentified militants sneaked into Mt. Bagong, which was even more bad news for the Fu family …
"Go and get ready. If necessary, use the power in the dark!"
Fu Qinglin was silent for a long time before he finally gave this order. Clearly, the Fu clan also had some trump cards, but they did not usually reveal them. They would only use them when they truly needed to.
When Head Steward Fu found so many bullet casings, he thought that a group of unidentified armed men had entered the Fu family's territory. It was obvious why these armed men were here and who sent them …
Qin Fang himself did not know that his small action of taking the bodies of the two experts away, because he did not want to waste the items dropped by the two experts, had caused some conflicts between the Fu Clan and the Cui Clan to intensify in advance.
Even though this conflict had not been fully revealed yet, it was not far from it. After all, Cui Zhi Min, who held a high position in the Cui Family, had died. Now that the Fu Family was making some strange movements, it would be strange if the two families did not suspect each other …
Unfortunately, these things did not have much to do with Qin Fang. Qin Fang even had a very good sleep. When he woke up the next morning, he felt even more refreshed.
"Qin Fang, don't you think the atmosphere today is a bit strange?"
Qin Fang had a comfortable sleep, and then accompanied by Liu Xianhe to the front hall for breakfast. However, Liu Xianhe whispered to Qin Fang in a very low voice.
"I don't think so. Everything is normal …"
Qin Fang smiled indifferently. While eating breakfast, he smiled indifferently.
In fact, he certainly knew why the atmosphere was strange. It was because Ishihara Ichiro did not appear … When the two remaining disciples of Ishihara Ichiro saw Qin Fang, their faces suddenly turned pale without a trace of blood.
Many of the masters present had already noticed this change. Everyone's expression was not the same. Although they tried to maintain a normal expression, Qin Fang could still catch some of their unusual little movements …
Even Fang Zonglin, who had a relatively close relationship with Qin Fang, looked at Qin Fang with a strange look from time to time … However, his two disciples kept calling Qin Fang 'Martial Uncle' and 'Martial Uncle', appearing to be quite enthusiastic, as if they didn't notice anything unusual.
"I keep feeling that something is wrong today …"
Seeing Qin Fang's normal expression, Liu Xianhe also became a little hesitant. However, this strange atmosphere made him feel very strange. He lowered his head to eat and whispered in a low voice.
When the meal ended, Steward Fu also arrived as scheduled. When he saw Qin Fang, the surprise on his face was incomparably clear.
Then, he noticed that Ishihara Ichiro did not appear. Ishihara's two disciples were so pale that they wanted nothing more than to run away immediately. While he frowned slightly, he also tried his best to maintain a calm state of mind.
"The meal is over. Judges, please head to the arena …"
Although he was filled with doubts, Steward Fu still did not say anything. He did not even ask Ishihara if he did not appear.
This was also easy to explain. After the conflict between Ishihara and Qin Fang yesterday, he did not even go to the Sword-fighting Assembly. Now that he did not appear, there was nothing abnormal about it.
Just like this, Qin Fang and the others continued to be their judges in the martial arts arena, pretending that they did not know anything about these additional matters.
But in reality, some people who knew about this were even more shocked than they knew.
"Cui Zhimin is missing …"
When Steward Fu unexpectedly received this news, his expression became even more strange.
Cui Zhimin's position in the Cui Family was basically equivalent to Steward Fu's position in the Fu Family. He was the most trusted person by the Patriarch's side, and his strength was also very strong.
The Fu Family and the Cui Family had been rivals for many years, and they already knew each other's strength. Steward Fu was very clear about Cui Zhimin's strength, and even he did not have the confidence to defeat Cui Zhimin, let alone kill him …
Furthermore, Steward Fu also knew that Cui Zhimin's identity was not simple. The huge power hidden behind him was something that even a large family like the Fu Family was afraid of.
If it wasn't for the fact that this great power had not interfered in the struggle for Cui Fu all these years, the Fu Family would have already lost the initiative and been defeated by the Cui Family …
But now that Cui Zhimin had suddenly disappeared, this problem became even stranger …
During the Sword-fighting Conference, Mt. Bagong was sealed off. The Fu Family and the Cui Family had sent people to patrol. At night, they were not allowed to leave Mt. Bagong without permission, even the important figures of the Fu Family and the Cui Family were not allowed to leave.
If there was really something very important, they would have to report it to the patrolling disciples before they could leave … But Cui Zhimin obviously did not do so.
There were even people from the Fu Family who saw Cui Zhimin go back to his room to rest. There was almost no movement for the entire night, but he mysteriously disappeared like this, without a single clue.
Of course, this news was only sealed off. Cui Zhimin's strength was very strong, and the number of people who could imprison him could be counted with one's fingers on the entire mountain, and there were only one or two people.
For the time being, this was only a guess of the Cui Family, and they had not even informed the Fu Family yet. It was just that there was such a bad rumor inside …
The Fu Family was the local tyrant of Mt. Bagong. Although this news was only spread within a small circle of the Cui Family, it was not difficult for Steward Fu to find out about this news.
"Qin Fang is back … Ishihara and Cui Zhimin are missing … Two bloodstains were found on the mountain … Could there be some kind of unknown connection between them?"
Steward Fu secretly recalled these things. He vaguely felt that although these things seemed to be messy, they seemed to be connected together. The whole thing seemed to be gradually becoming clearer.
"Could it be that he did all of this?"
Thinking of this, Steward Fu's eyes inadvertently turned to Qin Fang, who was sitting at the end of the judging panel.
At this moment, Qin Fang was sitting there silently with his eyes closed, as if he was resting. His face was indescribably calm, and there was almost no abnormality.
Cui Zhimin and Ishihara were indeed very powerful. They were almost the strongest masters below the guru level, but this did not mean that they were really invincible.
At least from the news that Steward Fu received, although Qin Fang was the youngest among all the judges, his strength was not weaker than any of them. Even a guru like Fu Qinglin could clearly judge that Qin Fang had killed Ishihara Ichiro …
Cui Zhimin was stronger than Ishihara Ichiro, but there was a limit to his strength. Since Qin Fang had the strength to kill Ishihara Ichiro, it was not impossible for him to kill Cui Zhimin.
Especially from the details that Steward Fu found, Cui Zhimin was very likely to be killed by a gun. Then, even if Qin Fang could not kill Cui Zhimin by force, it was very likely that he used a gun to kill him.
But Steward Fu also had a question in his heart, which was …
"Where did the gun and bullets come from?"
All the guests who entered the mountain to watch the ceremony had to go through a very strict security check before they were allowed to enter the mountain. Although the judges like Qin Fang did not need to go through such a detailed security check, the entrance to the mountain was also equipped with a very hidden security check. If Qin Fang and the others were to enter the mountain with weapons, it would be very easy to find out.
The bullets that Steward Fu found had been identified by professionals. They were shot from the barrel of a submachine gun like an M4.
And such a weapon was already considered a big one, and it was not so easy to bring it up the mountain. That was why Steward Fu found it very strange …
