"What does this have to do with us? If the people of the Ding Residence do bad things, don't implicate us."
"That's right, who doesn't know what kind of people they are? He must have taken a liking to her sister and wanted to make a move on her in the middle of the night. Now he's suffering retribution. "
Everyone spoke at once, one after the other. No one was willing to be taken away for investigation, so they scolded the people of the Ding Estate. When Qin Wei saw this scene, he felt a little awkward. If they really brought the surrounding residents back, it would definitely cause a commotion. At that time, even the City Lord might find out.
Furthermore, if he brought these people back, they would definitely not speak up for the Ding Residence. He could not possibly silence them all. After all, there was still Captain Yan and Deputy Chief Captain Cai watching over them. They didn't dare to go overboard. If they reported this to the City Lord, it would be troublesome.
Last time, there were a few neighbors who didn't speak up for Xiao Hui and the others. This time, everyone was on the same page regarding the matter of the Ding Estate. That was because the people of the Ding Residence were really too bad, and could be said to be notorious. He was just a resident of this alley. It would be the same even if he changed to another alley. Kidnapping women, plundering property, killing entire families, they had done all sorts of evil deeds.
"On the second watch, I saw some guys coming over here. I think they're up to something bad."
"Yeah, I saw it too."
After a while, the residents of the other alleys also came over. As expected, they did not speak up for the people of the Ding Estate. Instead, someone said that he had seen Ding Busan and Ding Busi on the way. The Ding Residence did not live here. What did Lin Dong's weapon mean by coming here at the second watch? It was obvious that he wanted to rob them.
Thus, the residents described the matter as such. The people of the Ding Residence wanted to rob them. In the end, the door was too sturdy, and he only managed to crack it open in the middle of the night. What they didn't expect was that there was more than one door in Xiaohui's house, so they couldn't break in. In the end, he encountered a monster and was eaten.
"Now that things are clear, is there anything else you want to ask, Captain Qin?"
There was no need to go to the city defense office to lecture them. The surrounding residents had already analyzed the matter. If these testimonies were taught to the Lord of the City, Qin Yongjie would probably not be able to protect the Ding Residence.
"No, no more!"
Seeing that things were not looking good, Qin Wei hurriedly led his men and slipped away. What was the point of interrogating him? If they didn't interrogate him, they were just chatting casually. If they were brought back for an official interrogation, the Deputy Chief Commander would definitely send someone to make a record and hand it over to the City Lord as evidence in court.
"Thank you, fellow villagers, for helping to uphold justice."
Xiao Hui might be young, but his reaction was quite fast. He bowed to the neighbors' uncles, aunties, aunties, and uncles, thanking them for their help.
"It's a small matter. It's what we should do."
"Haha, well done."
Even the neighbors who had some conflicts with Xiaohui's family before had changed their attitude now. This was because it was truly too amazing to be able to kill four people from the Ding Estate. Actually, everyone knew that it was Du Feng who was invited by Xiao Hui. However, he had an alibi. Even Captain Qin couldn't do anything about it.
Everyone was very happy to see the people of the Ding Estate suffer. Not only the neighbors of this alley, but even some of the surrounding residents also came to congratulate Xiao Hui and the others. The atmosphere was like a New Year festival. After chatting for a while, everyone went home.
"Be careful these days. Try not to go out."
All four of them had been killed, so the Ding Residence would definitely not let the matter rest. Since they couldn't solve the problem through official channels, they would definitely solve it through the underworld. After all, the Ding Estate had a lot of power in the outer city of the Cloud Capital. They wouldn't let it go so easily.
"Got it, big brother."
Xiao Hui was very obedient to Du Feng. The people of the Ding Estate were very daring. After suffering a loss this time, it was very likely that they would find some desperadoes to attack Xiao Hui in broad daylight. Xiao Hui was still young and his Cultivation level was low. If he really was targeted by desperadoes, no matter how many ideas he had, it would be useless.
Du Feng repaired the ruins outside, making it look more or less the same as before. Actually, everyone knew that this wasn't a simple ruin. Xiao Hui's family didn't live in a pile of ruins, but this ruin had already become a landmark.
The following days were just as Du Feng had expected. From time to time, people would come to cause trouble. For example, an old man suddenly fell on the ruins while walking, saying that it was a pile of trash and he had to clean it up. Another example was a drunkard who ran to the ruins to pee and vomit. There was even an unknown array master who came to secretly study the array set up in the ruins. They wanted to break the array with the array and invade the basement where Du Feng and the others were in.
During this time, Leader Qin and Leader Yan's people also fought with each other. For example, if a drunkard came here to cause trouble, Leader Yan's people would take him away on the grounds of disturbing the order. Leader Qin would protect the drunkard. This went back and forth for more than twenty days. Finally, the number of people who came to cause trouble decreased.
"Big brother, there seems to be no movement today."
Xiao Hui had been hiding in the basement for a long time and was a bit bored.
"Don't let your guard down. This is the calm before the storm."
Xiao Hui was a kid after all. Although he was smart, he wasn't steady enough. These days, he had been anxiously wandering around, but Du Feng had taken this opportunity to train hard in the basement level five. Because he always understood a principle. Only strength was the foundation of a martial artist's survival. As long as one was strong enough, they could solve all problems. Under the situation where one's strength wasn't strong, there was a need to play tricks and set up traps. To put it bluntly, it was a last resort.
"Alright!"
Xiao Hui originally wanted to go out to play today. Hearing Du Feng's words, he could only quiet down and go back to his room to sleep.
Du Feng went out alone. He stood on the ruins and looked up at the sky. There were dark clouds floating over from the south, and there were even flashes of lightning in the middle. The dark clouds were getting closer and lower. There was a feeling that the dark clouds were pressing down on the city.
The storm was coming. Tonight was definitely going to be an extraordinary night. The heavy rain poured down. In just a short while, the alley was filled with water. However, there was nothing in the ruins. Because Du Feng's array blocked the rain, the water wouldn't flow into the basement.
