Chapter 41 Suicide in Fear of Crime
Seeing that Ji Shi'an's face was indeed not very good and a little pale, Xie Xinrou did not continue to pester her, and pouted her lips in agreement, looking rather playful and cute.
Xie Jiu recovered, which was great news for the Xie family. The worried people gathered on the first floor also relaxed their brows and put down their worries.
When Xie Xinnian learned that Ji Shian was still looking for a place to live, he decisively had a room cleaned and asked Ji Shian to stay at Xie's manor tonight. Ji Shian couldn't postpone it several times, so he had no choice but to agree.
.
Xie Xinrou also boldly contacted the best restaurant in Jiangnan City, Banxianju, and prepared to entertain everyone present. During this period, the Xie family's overall mood was relatively low due to Xie Jiu's illness. Now that Xie Jiu has recovered, it is also lively and lively. Things will improve.
Atmosphere at home.
Banxianju is definitely one of the top restaurants in Jiangnan City. It can be said to be one of the best in terms of environment and taste. Of course, the consumption is beyond the reach of ordinary people, but for a little rich woman like Xie Xinrou, this is just a small amount of money.
Of course, it can be seen that the most important thing is to thank Ji Shi'an as his lifesaver. Since Xie Xinnian knew the identity of Ji Shi'an's Wuhan Bureau, it was indeed a headache for him to repay him.
For ordinary people, the ancient warriors were regarded as extraordinary experts, so Xie Xinnian knew that Ji Shi'an would not be interested in ordinary gold and silver property.
So when Xie Xinrou repeatedly said that she wanted to give Ji Shi'an money, Xie Xinnian interrupted her.
Xie Xinnian knew that what she owed Ji Shi'an this time could be said to be a huge favor, and she could only repay it when there was a chance in the future.
After all, saving Xie Jiu is more than just saving a life. As the founding general of the country, Xie Jiu is at the center of the power whirlpool, and the people and things related to his identity are very complicated.
Although he has retired, once a person dies, many things are bound to be affected. During Xie Jiurong's life, there are not only a few people who will make enemies. If the Xie family has this pillar, let alone others, those who have ideas for the Xie family.
But there are a lot of people there.
Xie Xinnian was sitting in her study, her brows furrowed, her fingers tapping the table rhythmically, thinking.
This time Xie Jiu was poisoned, it was most likely someone who deliberately planned it. After all, according to Ji Shi'an, the poison of tricolor ivy is basically extinct. However, such a rare poisonous weed appeared in Xie Jiu's body.
On the body.
Xie Xinnian is very thoughtful and thought of the idea of someone trying to assassinate his father immediately. However, he was busy treating his father during this period and did not go into it. Now that his father has recovered, he will start investigating. Let's see.
Who in the end had murderous intentions towards Xie Jiu?
Ji Shi'an did not go back to the room to rest at this time, but went back to the van to get the fifty-year-old angelica plant. Now Xie Jiu's energy and blood loss was severe. Fortunately, he decided to bring this angelica plant.
It just came in handy.
When Ji Shi'an handed this angelica plant to Bai Songzhi, Bai Songzhi said in surprise, "Xiao An! You surprised me again and again today. This kind of rare wild medicinal material is like an ordinary medicinal material to you.
Yes, otherwise these medicinal materials are all wild, and I really doubt that you can cultivate medicinal materials yourself!"
Faced with Bai Lao's words, Ji Shi'an smiled and said, "I'm just lucky. After all, we are in a virgin forest. There is no man-made destruction. There are many good things in the mountains!"
"That's true!"
Bai Songzhi could not comment, but looked at Ji Shi'an, smiled meaningfully, and then said, "With this angelica, old man Xie should be able to wake up soon!"
Just as Ji Shi'an and Bai Songzhi walked to the door of the villa, a gunshot suddenly occurred. Everyone present stood up. The gunshot came from the second floor.
Ji Shi'an and Bai Songzhi also looked at each other. Both of them were in disbelief. Someone actually fired a gun in the Xie family manor. Who would have such courage.
Everyone who stood up rushed to the second floor following the sound of gunfire. At this time, the second floor was already full of people, and everyone was seen gathered around the innermost bedroom.
Ji Shi'an and everyone who came up were relieved when they saw that it was not Xie Jiu's room. When everyone heard the gunshot, they thought someone had come in to assassinate Xie Jiu, who had just recovered!
Ji Shi'an and Bai Songzhi walked to the front and saw the three Xie brothers and sisters already in the bedroom. In the bedroom lay a man in military uniform with blood all over the floor. He held a pistol in his right hand and a bloody hole was still bleeding from his chin.
Blood, it looks like suicide.
“I didn’t expect it to be him.”
Xie Xinnian looked at the body lying on the ground and sighed slightly.
"Dad rescued him from the hands of human traffickers and trained him for more than ten years. I didn't expect him! He is really an ignorant wolf who is not well-raised."
Xie Xinrou said angrily.
Xie Xinnian sighed, called someone in, and said, "Let's bury her properly!"
At this moment, Xie Xinnian felt uncomfortable. The dead person's name was Xie Zai Zai. He was a child that Xie Jiu had rescued from human traffickers in his early years. When Xie Xin Zai was rescued, he had no father or mother and didn't even know his own name.
Xie Jiu looked pitiful and gave Xie Zai Zai a name. He stayed with him and trained him slowly until he became Xie Jiu's bodyguard. It can be said that the Xie family did not regard Xie Zai Zai as an outsider and treated him very much.
Good.
When Xie Jiu was poisoned, Xie Xinnian's first suspect was Xie Zai Zai. After all, to poison Xie Jiu, only people close to him could do it. The three brothers of the Xie family are not at home all year round. Only Xie Zai Zai, who is responsible for Xie Jiu's daily life, has this
Chance.
Looking at Xie Zaisheng's cold body, Xie Xinnian originally did not want to believe that Xie Zaisheng would be so vicious as Xie Jiuxia, and wanted to investigate, but now there is no need for this. Xie Zaisheng has committed suicide out of fear of guilt.
As for why Xie Zai Zai attacked Xie Jiu, Xie Xinnian never understood. Xie Jiu treated Xie Zai Zai as if he were his fourth son.
But one thing Xie Xinnian knew was that Xie Zaisheng was just a puppet and there must be someone behind him.
Xie Xinnian comforted everyone, explained a little, and called Xie Xinhe and Xie Xinrou into his study.
"During this period, everyone in the family is being secretly investigated to strengthen their defenses. Xie Zaisheng should be just a chess piece, and the person behind it is the real wolf, tiger and leopard."
Xie Xinnian said with a serious face.
Xie Xinhe also nodded seriously and said, "Brother, who is starting to make trouble? The Ji family in Jinling? Or the Cheng family in Fengtian Province?"
"I don't know! It's all possible. We can only ask dad about this after he wakes up! I believe he should have an idea." Xie Xinnian turned to look at his little sister, "Xinrou, you also need to
Be careful, since someone is attacking our Xie family, it will never be that simple. You should also pay more attention when you are outside."
Xie Xinrou looked very serious at this time. Her many years of business experience also made her instinctively feel a sense of crisis about some things. She could feel that the Xie family had been targeted.
After explaining everything, not long after Xie Xin and the two brothers and sisters walked out of the study, Ji Shian knocked on the door and came in.
Xie Xinnian, who had been frowning, saw Ji Shi'an coming in, showed a smile and said, "Shi'an! Come on, come on, sit down! It's hard to guard against domestic thieves, it's ridiculous!"
Ever since he learned that Ji Shi'an was a member of the Wuhan Bureau, Xie Xinnian no longer regarded him as a child. He had already treated him as a peer. Before Ji Shi'an could ask, Xie Xinnian laughed at himself.
In fact, this is because Xie Xinnian doesn't know Ji Shi'an yet. Ji Shi'an is a person who never gossips. If others don't tell him, Ji Shi'an will never ask.
Hearing Xie Xinnian's words, Ji Shi'an smiled. Without answering Xie Xinnian's words, he took out Polygonum multiflorum and said, "Uncle Xie, I give you this wild angelica plant. It will be of great help to Grandpa Xie's recovery."
Seeing the Angelica sinensis in Ji Shi'an's hand, even if Xie Xinnian didn't understand medicinal materials, he knew that this Angelica sinensis was extraordinary. He said with some embarrassment, "Shi'an! You are really a noble person of my Xie family, but you don't want any thanks."
, Uncle Xie, I feel so sorry!"
Of course Xie Xinnian knew that what her father needed most now was medicinal herbs that could nourish Qi and nourish blood, and none of the medicinal herbs Ji Shian brought out were of ordinary quality.
If he hadn't known Ji Shi'an's identity, Xie Xinnian would have really suspected that Ji Shi'an had some other purpose. After all, who would help a stranger for free?!
"Uncle Xie, don't thank me all the time! Just take it if it's given to you. This medicinal material is of no use to me anyway, so I have to make the best use of it!"
Ji Shian said with a smile.
After listening to Ji Shi'an's words, Xie Xinnian knew that if she said too much, it would be pretentious, but she just secretly remembered this kindness in her heart.
Xie Xinnian asked Ji Shi'an to wait for a while, and then took the angelica to Dr. Wen Ziren. After all, if Xie Jiu could wake up one day earlier, he would be able to breathe a sigh of relief one day earlier.
After Xie Xinnian left, Ji Shi'an looked at Xie Xinnian's study and was quickly attracted by a set of cabinets.
The cabinet is filled with all kinds of stones in different shapes, which look really interesting. Some of them should even be jade, and they should be valuable.
But what really attracted Ji Shi'an was a very ordinary white stone, but this white stone was extremely smooth, and if you look closely, it had a faint green tint.
Ji Shian stared at the white stone because he felt spiritual energy on the white stone. Yes! It was spiritual energy!
At first, Ji Shian thought that his induction was wrong. After repeated confirmations, Ji Shian was very sure that this white stone contained rich spiritual energy.
This discovery surprised Ji Shi'an. He had never found any items containing spiritual energy before. "Is this the spiritual stone written in the novel?!"
Thinking of this, Ji Shi'an couldn't help but smile. His sense of involvement was too strong, but no matter what, he wanted this white stone. He could only wait until Xie Xinnian came back later and asked him if he was willing to give it to him.
