All the passengers on the airship were in a state of chaos and panic.
Groans, screams, and curses could be heard everywhere, incessantly ringing in the ears.
Only one-third of the flight time had passed, and they were not even halfway to the Guardian's Mansion. However, such a bad thing had happened on the airship, and the perpetrator was the escort of this interprovincial airship.
It was inevitable that people would overthink it.
What did these people want to do?
Kill people for treasures, or murder for money?
Similar things had happened before. Some small manned airships would take the passengers halfway to the wild, kill them, and destroy their corpses. Then they would lie to the public that they had been attacked by demonic beasts, so that the families of the deceased could only blame themselves for their bad luck.
Could it be that they had encountered such a similar thing now?
'How come even the regular interprovincial airships have become so unreliable?'
"Get out of here!"
On the second floor of the airship, when everyone was poisoned by the Qi and Blood of the Grand Master Peak and was more or less injured, an extremely majestic voice suddenly sounded.
"Chen Chuan! Who gave you the courage to peep into I's room? Do you want to die? "
Then, with a muffled groan, the Qi and Blood fluctuation that swept back and forth between the different floors of the airship stopped abruptly.
It was obvious that the escort named Chen Chuan was injured.
"Mr. Wang, please don't blame us. We didn't mean to be your enemy. Just now, we had no choice but to …"
"Get out of here, all of you. If I find that someone is spying on I and disturbing his peace, I will slap you to death!"
"…"
Then, there was a period of silence. The Qi and Blood exploration was still going on, but it was much more restrained than before. It no longer dared to be as unscrupulous and oppressive as before.
Obviously, Mr. Wang's words had an extraordinary effect.
Almost at the same time, most of the passengers on the airship breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, there were still people among the passengers who could make the escorts so fearful. They wouldn't be killed to silence them.
In the cabin of the South China Martial Arts School, An Sheng could not help turning his head to look at Yang Fan and said in surprise, "Mr. Wang, is he …"
"He should be Wang Zhihe, the head of the Wang family in Taikang City." Wang Zhe raised his eyebrows slightly, and a trace of understanding appeared on his face. "Previously, when I was having a meal with my old classmate, I heard her mention that this time, Wang Zhihe and his wife are among some of the big shots who are traveling with us."
"Besides, I don't think anyone else would dare to disrespect the Chen family on this airship except for Wang Zhihe."
With that, Wang Zhe comforted the students softly, "This is a fight between immortals. It has nothing to do with us. You guys have to be more careful. Don't go out if you can, lest you get caught in the crossfire."
Chu Feiyun and the others nodded repeatedly.
What kind of joke was this? Under such circumstances, who would dare to run out again? The previous lesson was enough for them to remember for the rest of their lives.
At this moment, the intelligent broadcast system in the cabin automatically turned on, and a deep middle-aged voice sounded from it.
"Dear passengers, please calm down. I'm Chen Tingsheng, the person in charge of this flight. I sincerely apologize for what happened just now."
"Just now, an extremely vicious serial murder case happened on the airship. Chen Jie, the captain of the guards on the airship, and his 17 guards were brutally killed at the same time."
"Not only that, the important person in charge of this airship, Mr. Chen Jingsheng, was also assassinated in his own room. The escort, Mr. Chen Chuan, was very angry and impulsively acted inappropriately just now. I sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused to you."
"Later, special medical staff will go to each cabin to check and treat the injured passengers. At the same time, the accompanying staff will give you a small gift as an apology."
"I hope that everyone can be careful in the following journey. For the safety of you and your companions, try not to go out of the cabin before we find the real murderer. Thank you for your cooperation!"
"…"
Yang Fan curled his lips slightly.
What a bunch of lies.
Others might not know what was going on, but how could he, the instigator, not know? Chen Jingsheng obviously died of suicide. How could there be a real murderer?
Even Zhao Lin, a level-nine grandmaster, could not detect Floret's stealth technique, let alone ordinary martial artists.
As for Chen Chuan, who had released his Qi and blood to bully others, although he was at the peak of the grandmaster realm, he could not have been paying attention to Chen Jingsheng's every move all the time.
Otherwise, his Qi and blood fluctuations would not be just passing by, but directly coming towards them.
Compared to Yang Fan who was calm as usual, An Sheng, Chu Feiyun, and the other four were extremely shocked.
That insufferably arrogant Second Young Master Chen was actually dead?
Who did it?
Originally, Yang Fan was the most suspicious. However, since they separated from Chen Jingsheng, Yang Fan had been with them all the time, so there was no chance for them to do anything.
However, if it was not Yang Fan, who else would be willing to help them? Could it be the woman who had been standing at the door?
"Chen Jingsheng?" Wang Zhe nodded slightly, "It should be Chen Tianhao's son. He died on the airship operated by his family. This is very interesting."
"No wonder the Chen family's escorts went crazy just now. The family head's son died in front of their eyes. If Chen Tianhao knew about it, they would be skinned even if they did not die."
Wang Zhe's mood soon became cheerful. He had never been good-tempered. When he saw that the grandmaster at the peak of the grandmaster realm who had angrily injured him just now was in trouble, he gloated.
Chu Feiyun and the others didn't have such a good mood like Wang Zhe. They were extremely perturbed at this moment. Chen Jingsheng's death was a good thing for them. Even the person involved was no longer around. So, the dead couldn't testify. So, they had basically avoided future troubles.
However, now the matter was so serious that even a grandmaster at the peak of the grandmaster realm personally came to find out the truth. They were really worried that they would be found out in the end.
"Relax!" Yang Fan whispered to them, "You just need to remember that you have never seen Chen Jingsheng. Without any evidence, no one can find out that it was us."
Everyone nodded and relaxed a little. They were all silent.
"Well, you don't have to worry. With the intervention of the Wang family, there should be no more problems. Now go back to your own beds and have a rest."
Wang Zhe clapped his hands and said to the students, "Before we arrive at the Town Residence, none of you should go out again. I will stay here with you."
This time, Wang Zhe didn't leave immediately like before. He chose a bed near the door and sat on it to meditate and heal his injuries.
With such a big incident happening on the airship, even though Wang Zhe had the intention of looking for his old classmates to catch up, he had to postpone it. As the teacher in charge of this trip to the House of Guardians, he had to be responsible for his students.
At the same time.
On the top floor of the airship, in Chen Tingsheng's office, after the broadcast of the apology to the whole airship, Chen Tingsheng respectfully asked Chen Chuan, who had been standing next to him, "How was it, Elder Chen? Did you find anything?"
"There were a few suspicious people, but I killed them casually." Chen Chuan's face was gloomy. "Wang Zhihe is also very suspicious. Someone saw that before Jingsheng was killed, Wang Zhihe's wife and son appeared around."
Chen Chuan raised his hand and pulled the monitor screen next to him. "This is one minute after Jingsheng lost his vital signs. Zhao Lin and her son happened to pass by Jingsheng's door. Is this really a coincidence?"
"Elder Chen, Second Uncle, you can't talk nonsense without real evidence."
Chen Tingsheng felt a headache. "Chen Chuan is really daring. You put Zhao Lin on the blacklist of suspects. Do you want to openly declare war on the Wang family of Taikang?"
"Everyone saw Wang Zhihe's attitude just now. He wanted to take the opportunity to make trouble. Aren't you rushing to give him something to use against him?"
"Zhao Lin and Jingsheng have no grudges. She has no reason to murder Jingsheng." Chen Tingsheng said, "Even if Zhao Lin doesn't like Jingsheng and wants to kill him, she can just do it. Is there a need to go through so much trouble?"
"With her status, even if she wants to, she can just slap Jingsheng to death in front of everyone. That would save her a lot of trouble. Who would dare to stand up for Jingsheng? Even if the head of the family came, he would probably scold Jingsheng for failing to recognize Mount Tai. Wouldn't he deserve to die? "
Chen Chuan was speechless.
Although he didn't want to admit it, Chen Tingsheng was telling the truth. Chen Tianhao would definitely not risk going to war with the Wang family of Taikang for an insignificant son. There was an eighty percent chance that he would choose to continue enduring.
He was not as strong as others, so he didn't dare to take revenge. That was the reality.
"Then what do you think we should do now?" Chen Chuan said, "Chen Jingsheng died in front of our eyes. If the head of the family asks, how should we answer? If we say that he killed himself in his room, do you think the head of the family would believe us? "
"That child has always been as timid as a mouse. He valued his life more than anything else. He would bring a dozen guards with him whenever he went out. How could such a person be willing to commit suicide?"
Chen Tianhao was not the only one who did not believe such a conclusion. Even Chen Chuan himself found it unbelievable.
That kid Chen Jingsheng was not the kind of person who would have the guts to commit suicide!
"Why not?" Chen Tingsheng asked, "Chen Jingsheng died in his own room. That's a fact. Whether it was the way he held the sword, the strength and direction of the sword, or the direction of the blood on his neck and the distribution of the blood stains, which one of these points doesn't prove that he cut his own neck and died of asphyxiation?"
"It's hard to persuade a damned person. He took things too hard and didn't want to live anymore. What does that have to do with us? Do we have to be so careful to clean up his mess? "
Chen Tingsheng pointed at the surveillance footage that Chen Chuan showed him and said, "If there's no other way, we'll give this video to Chen Tianhao and push all the blame to Madam Wang. Let's see if Chen Tianhao has the guts to avenge his son!"
