God-Level Brat System - Chapter 45
[Chapter 45 The Du Family Incident]
“You…” Du Huai was choked, pointed at Ye Meng, stood up suddenly, and showed murderous intent in his eyes.
Li Chengming saw this and frowned: “Master Du, what are you doing? It is still unclear whether Ye Meng is the murderer who killed Du Lie and others. Why are you doing this?”
“Old Du, you are being unreasonable. Ye Meng is just a child. What if you look so fierce and scare the child?” Song Chang also mocked Du Huai.
Hearing what Li Chengming and Song Chang said, Du Huai snorted coldly and sat down again.
“Ye Meng, let me ask you a question, do you know Du Lie and the others?” Li Chengming asked.
Ye Meng shook his head and replied: “No!”
This was not a lie. In fact, he really didn’t know the names of the people who came with Du Jinghui at the beginning, so when Li Chengming asked whether he knew Du Lie, he of course directly replied that he didn’t know him.
Hearing Ye Meng’s words, Li Chengming’s mouth curled up a faint smile, and Song Chang also secretly gave Ye Meng a thumbs up.
Ye Meng blinked his eyes, looking innocent.
In fact, although he didn’t know the names of Du Lie and others, the Du family came to find them, so they knew about this matter. To be honest, Li Chengming asked the right question.
“Master Du, you also heard that Ye Meng didn’t even know Du Lie and others, so how could he be the murderer!” Li Chengming smiled faintly and said.
Du Huai heard it, nodded, and looked at Li Chengming deeply.
“Since the city lord said it’s not, then it’s not! However, I believe that those who kill people will be killed! Any murderer, my Du family will not let go!”
After saying that, Du Huai stood up suddenly.
“Let’s go!” After shouting at the Du family, Du Huai turned and left.
After the Du family left, Li Chengming’s face became gloomy.
“City Lord, Du Huai is a ruthless man. He will definitely take action if he leaves with hatred!” Song Chang frowned and said.
They didn’t mention Ye Meng’s murder. They didn’t take it to heart at all.
Ancheng seemed calm on the surface, but there were undercurrents in the dark. City
Lord Li Chengming, Song Chang of the Song family, Wei Xiangrong of the Wei family, and the families that appeared in the City Lord’s Mansion yesterday all belonged to the same camp.
The other force was led by the Du family and the Shen family.
The two camps fought openly and secretly with each other, and they were almost incompatible.
That is, the two sides have not completely torn their faces, and the contradictions have surfaced.
“I know that Du Huai has been disobeying me since I took office in Ancheng. He thought he had a backer in Nanjiang Mansion, and I really couldn’t do anything to him?” Li Chengming said coldly.
Hearing this, Song Chang nodded and said nothing more.
Fortunately, the Song family and the Wei family have supported Li Chengming over the years, otherwise he, as the city lord, could not even issue orders. When
Ye Meng heard this, he suddenly understood why Li Chengming would blatantly favor him, and Song Chang secretly told him to deny the fact of killing the Du family.
Everything stems from the struggle between the two forces. His killing of the Du family is a trivial matter.
Since it involves a struggle, Ye Meng believes that the Du family is probably not just trying to find the murderer. It is very likely that behind this incident, there are a series of killing moves against Li Chengming!
“The city lord is going to confront the Du family again, but I don’t know what the result will be this time?” Deng Hang stood quietly in the hall, thinking secretly in his heart.
