"Hangyi is dead …"
The old lady's eyes dimmed, but she was much calmer than Lin Huang imagined.
Lin Huang was worried that the old lady might not be able to accept the news, but her mental state was much better than he expected.
"It's all my fault …" The old lady slapped her thighs hard.
"Mom, don't say that!"
"It has nothing to do with you!"
Yin Hangyi's aunty and aunt tried to stop him immediately.
However, Lin Huang and Lin Xin were confused by what they heard.
"How is it not related?! It's my fault for being so tough. I killed two husbands, two sons, a daughter-in-law, and two grandsons. If I had died earlier, nobody would be in trouble! "The old lady blamed herself as she cried.
Lin Huang and Lin Xin only understood why she blamed herself when they heard that.
"Lin Huang, what happened? Hangyi was only traveling with his girlfriend for a few days. How did something happen to him?" The old lady asked Lin Huang to change the topic.
"Hangyi and his girlfriend were kidnapped in the White Capital. It was too late when I got there … Although Hangyi wasn't dead, it was too late to save him …" Lin Huang hid the truth.
He had no choice. The less the Yin family knew about the Mistress, the safer they would be. If he told them the truth, they might want to take revenge. However, if the Mistress found out about what the Yin family did, it would only bring disaster to them.
"Kidnapped? Why didn't they contact us for money before killing the hostages? "Yin Hangyi's aunt asked immediately.
"The kidnappers didn't want money. They were actually after Zhang Mengmeng. They wanted something from Zhang Mengmeng's house. Zhang Mengmeng was from a noble family outside of Division7. She was targeted before she came to Division7. In reality, Yin Hangyi was undeservedly implicated by Zhang Mengmeng. After failing to negotiate with Zhang Mengmeng's family, the kidnappers cruelly chose to kill the hostage. Zhang Mengmeng's body has been taken away by her family. I've put Hangyi's body in my storage space … "
Lin Huang made up a story for the Yi family. He purposely said that Zhang Mengmeng's family was not from Division7. After all, the Yi family was just a normal person, so it was difficult for them to get in touch with information from outside of Division7. A large number of Life Crystals were required to teleport between regions. A standard unit of Life Crystal with 100 years of Life Light was equivalent to 10 million credit points. Even if one were to teleport to the nearest Division 8 and Division 6, a single teleportation would cost thousands of Life Crystals.
Moreover, the Heart Network was operated independently. Apart from powerhouses who had access to a certain level, the information in each region was isolated from the rest of the people. Ordinary people could only receive information from their region. If one did not know anyone from another region, most of them would not have anything to do with the other regions for the rest of their lives.
Lin Huang's words were credible to the Yi family. The old lady and the rest remembered Lin Huang's name because Fatso always mentioned his name. Moreover, Fatso had taken a photo with Lin Huang. The old lady and the rest had seen it too. Naturally, there was no doubt about Lin Huang's identity.
"Hangyi's body … Can we have a look at it?" The old lady heard what Lin Huang said despite her sadness.
Lin Huang nodded in silence. He then took out Fatso's body and placed it on the carpet in the living room.
Fatty's aunt and aunt only took a glance before averting their gazes, not daring to look again. However, the old lady stood up calmly and slowly walked over with her walking stick.
Although Fatso's face was swollen beyond recognition, the old lady could recognize that it was her grandson, Yin Hangyi.
"Hangyi …" The old lady threw her walking stick aside and knelt down slowly. She seemed to have aged a lot. She extended her hand and caressed Fatso's head. "Why did you leave just like that? Didn't you say that you wanted to be a food hunter and cook all sorts of monsters into delicious dishes for grandma? "
The old lady's tears flowed down her face. She could not stop crying as she mumbled. Lin Huang's eyes turned red when he saw that. Lin Xin was secretly wiping her tears.
Yin Hangyi's aunt and aunt were crying too. The atmosphere in the room was unprecedentedly gloomy.
Approximately 20 minutes later, the old lady finally calmed down. She wiped her tears and lifted her head to ask Lin Huang, "Hangyi's face …"
"He was tortured to a certain extent before he died. I think it was because he was trying to protect Zhang Mengmeng. There was only a scar on Zhang Mengmeng's face. There were no other wounds, "Lin Huang nodded and explained.
"Hangyi sent his father and his recipe to me before he died. It's the only thing he left behind. I'll forward it to you," Lin Huang said to the old lady.
"Did he say anything before he died?" The old lady asked again.
"He said that he had a grandmother who loved him very much and a great father. He even met the girl that he loved the most in his life. He had no regrets in his life …" Lin Huang repeated what Fatso said.
When the old lady heard this, she sobbed even harder.
Lin Huang waited quietly for the three of them to calm down.
After another ten minutes, the old lady finally calmed down. With the help of her auntie, she stood up with the help of her walking stick.
"Lin Huang, who are the kidnappers?" The old lady was obviously thinking of revenge.
"I've killed the kidnappers, but I'm not sure who they are. I'll get to the bottom of this. I'll definitely give you a satisfactory answer by then. "Lin Huang said that because he did not want the Yin family to get involved.
To the royal family, an ordinary person's ability was too weak. Even a small royal family in Division7 could easily destroy the Yi family, let alone the Mistress who could control the immortal-level assassin, Poison Sting. Lin Huang even suspected that the Mistress might be from the core zone. Unfortunately, he did not get much information about the Mistress from Zhang Mengmeng.
"You don't want us to investigate this?" The old lady got the message from what Lin Huang said.
"Yes, it's related to the royal family, and it might be the royal family or even the royal family in other divisions. Let me handle it. Hangyi is my friend, and I'll avenge him. One day, I'll chop off the culprit's head and send it to the Yi family as a memorial to Hangyi. "Lin Huang stared at the old lady with determination.
Seeing Lin Huang's determined gaze, the old lady nodded slowly. "Alright then, I'll leave this to you. Hangyi has passed away, and the Yi family has many things to settle. There's also Hangyi's funeral … "
For the next few days, the old lady arranged for Lin Huang and Lin Xin to stay at the Yi family's residence. On the third day, Fatso's funeral was held as planned.
