" Oh... I see. Then that dog Zhang Si Da acted on his own. He actually beat up Lin Ming Fan and sent him to the hospital. Cao's Restaurant won't be able to deliver the food for the next few days. I apologize to Young Master Cao here. Lin Ming Fan is my brother. If there is any misunderstanding between the two of you, I hope Young Master Cao can give me some face and resolve the misunderstanding.”
Zhang Tianbao's voice sounded. His tone was polite, but there was a hint of alienation in his politeness.
"What do you mean? Do you mean that I, Cao Xu, have a grudge with a vegetable seller? I was the one who instructed Zhang Si Da to beat him up?”
Cao Xu's voice turned cold as if he had been insulted.
"Young Master Cao, I didn't mean it that way. I'm just calling to tell you that your Cao Hotel won't be able to deliver the food you want for the next few days.”
Zhang Tianbao's voice came from the other end of the phone. His tone was apologetic.
"If there's nothing else, that's all.”
Cao Xu said and hung up.
"How is it?"
On the balcony of the hospital, Zhang Tianbao hung up the phone and asked.
Beside him was a police officer. He was the captain of the city's criminal police.
" From his words and tone, he shouldn't be lying. With his identity, he wouldn't have personally met Lin Mingfan. According to Zhang Si Da's confession, Cao Xu heard that the dishes in his restaurant were good and asked Zhang Si Da to find Lin Mingfan to provide food for his restaurant.
Tonight's operation should be the result of Zhang Sida's selfish actions. As the young master of the Cao Group, Cao Xu should not be greedy for the profit from selling vegetables.”
The captain analyzed.
" That's for the best. Cao Corporation is a major tax collector in CD City. It's a key enterprise supported by the city. There's no benefit in having a conflict with Cao Xu…"
Zhang Tianbao heaved a sigh of relief.
"Ah…"
Right at this moment, a sharp female scream sounded. Her voice was filled with panic.
"Did something happen?"
Zhang Tianbao and the captain of the criminal police looked at each other. The direction of the voice was Lin Mingfan's ward. They quickly ran over.
When Cao Xu had just picked up Zhang Tianbao's call, Lin Mingfan was still unconscious in his ward. He was still on an IV drip and his injuries had been bandaged by the doctor. His parents were in another ward. Zhang Tianbao, who was watching him, had gone out to call Cao Xu because of him. Lin Mingfan was the only one in the ward.
At this moment, the shadow in the corner of the wall moved to the side of the bed. A figure stood up from the shadow. A black ninja with a samurai sword on his back appeared in the ward.
This ninja in black had bloodshot eyes. He was one of the three Ghostly Ninjas Cao Xu was controlling.
Without making a sound, he pulled out the katana from his back. With a wave of his katana, blood splattered everywhere. Lin Mingfan's head was chopped off from the sickbed. Lin Mingfan was unconscious and had been killed without realizing it.
"Swoosh…"
At this moment, a strange scene appeared. A strange thing happened. On the chest of the dead Lin Mingfan, there was a flash of light. A jade card flew out from it. On the jade card, a two-story building appeared. It was as if a 3G image was embedded on the jade card.
The ghostly figure grabbed the jade token that had suddenly appeared in his hand and turned into a shadow again. Soon, he disappeared into the shadow of the corner.
"What's wrong? What happened?"
Zhang Tianbao and the captain of the criminal police quickly ran into the ward and pushed away a young nurse who was screaming at the door. When they saw the scene on the bed, they could not help but be stunned.
"Investigate! No matter who killed my brother, I must take revenge!”
Zhang Tianbao's eyes turned red when he saw the scene before him. He let out a roar!
" Lin Mingfan was killed with a single stab. Judging from the degree of blood condensation, the death took less than ten minutes. The murderer must not have escaped far. This is a hospital. Although there are no surveillance cameras in the ward, there are surveillance cameras in the corridors. It shouldn't be difficult to find the murderer…"
The captain of the criminal police went forward to check for a moment and said. He quickly took out his phone and began to summon people.
"Ding…the main character's subordinate Ghostly Ninja has killed the 3-star main character Lin Mingfan. He is rewarded with a chance to draw a lottery. The killing reward is an additional 1 star.”
Before he hung up the phone, the system's voice suddenly sounded in Cao Xu's mind. However, Cao Xu and Zhang Tianbao's voices did not change at all.
Perhaps it was because Cao Xu was born to be a villain, or perhaps it was because he didn't see Lin Mingfan die, or because Cao Xu's heart didn't waver at all when he saw someone die.
He only thought about whether his death would be traced back to him. After thinking about it for a moment, he felt relieved. He didn't do anything at all, and Ghostly Ninja definitely wouldn't leave any traces. It was impossible for him to leave any evidence that would be detrimental to him. He then threw this matter to the back of his mind.
