Chapter 249 A foul-mouthed woman

Yi Xu shook his head and said something reassuring: "No, Fang Wei is still alive, but I don't know what her specific situation is now."

Shen Cheng immediately understood why Yi Xu came to see him so early in the morning: "Do you want me to go with you to visit her?"

Yi Xu nodded: "That's right, since Fang Wei is not dead, she must have fought with the murderer. Perhaps we can ask her for some characteristics and clues of the murderer."

"Then what are you waiting for? Let's go."

Shen Cheng immediately took his coat and left the hotel with Yi Xu.

All the senior executives of the Scarlet Dinner Party do not live on the island in the middle of the lake, especially the presidents. After all, they are all masters. If they are kept in the island in the middle of the lake like ordinary vampires, they will inevitably become desperate.

Fang Wei lives in a relatively remote area. Because of her introverted personality, she rarely interacts with other vampires at the headquarters and stays in her own home all year round without going out.

On the way, Yi Xu recalled carefully and found that the last time he met Fang Wei was two years ago.

Compared with other vampires who love to socialize and run around, Fang Wei is more like the kind of vampire that people imagine - living deep in a secluded castle where few people go, sleeping in a sarcophagus for hundreds of years without paying attention to what's happening outside.

Shen Cheng felt that Fang Wei was very similar to Xiao Qingque, both of them didn't like to go out.

If he hadn't been in charge, Xiao Qingque would probably have played cards to death at home.

Half an hour later, the two finally arrived at where Fang Wei lived.

Unlike the ancient castle that Shen Cheng had expected, it was just a modern mansion with a garden and swimming pool.

There were a large number of vampires wearing black clothes and sunglasses guarding inside and outside the mansion. They held umbrellas to block out the sunlight and watched every move around them with extreme vigilance, not letting go of any mosquito or fly.

When Shen Cheng and Yi Xu approached, a sturdy man in black stood at the door to stop them: "Sorry, Mr. President, Lady Fang Wei doesn't want to see anyone now."

Yi Xu frowned slightly: "Even I can't do it?"

He felt that the relationship between him and Fang Wei was pretty good.

The sturdy man nodded. Although his attitude was tough, his tone was somewhat humble: "Yes, Lady Fang Wei said that she will not see anyone, not even if the president comes in person. Please don't make things difficult for us."

Yi Xu didn't rely on his status to force his way in, as that would only offend Fang Wei: "Well, tell me a message and tell me that I'm here to see her."

The sturdy man looked very embarrassed. He could imagine that if he really went in to speak for Yi Xu, Fang Wei would be angry with him because this went against her order not to see anyone.

Seeing the embarrassment of the strong man, Shen Cheng suddenly said: "You don't need to ask for an audience on our behalf. Just say that we are here for the murderer. If the murderer is not caught, anyone may be attacked again. Just tell Fang Wei this."

The sturdy man nodded. If he just brought a message and didn't ask for a meeting with anyone, it wouldn't be considered a violation of Fang Wei's order.

After the burly man went in, Yi Xu said to Shen Cheng, "You are really good at talking. Fang Wei and I haven't seen each other for so long that I don't know how to convince her."

Shen Cheng shook his head. He felt that Yi Xu's behavior was a little strange.

Sometimes he is too shrewd, like arranging a woman for him last night, and sometimes he is a little straightforward.

Perhaps this is why Zhu Jing has always suspected that Yi Xu was also affected by the Eternal Blood.

The sturdy man came out shortly after he went in and invited Shen Cheng and Yi Xu in.

The two entered the mansion, and found that there was a guard post every three steps and a sentry every five steps, and there were vampires patrolling and standing guard everywhere.

Inside the mansion, the two also saw a large area of ​​destruction. The front of the mansion looked normal, but the back was half collapsed, which showed how fierce the battle was last night.

Soon, Shen Cheng and Yi Xu met Fang Wei, whose face was slightly pale, in a relatively intact reception room.

Fang Wei looks to be in her thirties. As a vampire, she is of course a very beautiful woman, but her expression is very cold, and her eyes and eyebrows have a temperament that keeps people at a distance.

As soon as she saw Yi Xu, Fang Wei immediately asked rudely, "Who is the murderer?"

There was anger in her tone. It was obvious that she had suffered a great loss from the murderer's attack last night, which was why she was so angry.

Yi Xu shook his head and said, "We still don't know who the murderer is."

"do not know?"

Fang Wei raised her eyebrows and said in a very dissatisfied tone: "I don't know why you came to see me?"

Yi Xu was not angry, but explained: "We came to you to ask about the murderer. Can you tell us what happened last night?"

Fang Wei had a very short patience, but since this involved life safety, she resisted the urge to drive Yi Xu away and recounted everything that happened last night in a very impatient tone.

But what happened last night was very simple. She stayed at home as usual, and the tightly wrapped murderer appeared in the middle of the night and attacked her without saying a word.

Fang Wei knew that Zhu Jing had been killed recently because Yi Xu had already sent her a notification.

However, Fang Wei was indifferent to this. She was the type of person who turned a deaf ear to what was happening outside. No matter what happened outside, as long as it didn't bother her, she would be fine.

But she didn't expect that such a harmless character like herself would be chosen as the second target by the murderer.

Did he think she was easy to mess with?

In the vampire community, women have a very low status and are even treated as reproductive machines.

The reason why Fang Wei was able to become the vice president as a woman was because she possessed extremely strong fighting power. Although she turned a deaf ear to the outside world, she had absorbed a lot of Eternal Blood in private.

After a fight between the two sides, the murderer saw that he could not defeat Fang Wei, so he withdrew decisively.

Although Fang Wei successfully repelled the murderer, she was also seriously injured. This was why she didn't see anyone, for fear that the murderer might blend in with the visiting guests and attack her again secretly.

Yi Xu was lucky that he brought Shen Cheng with him. If he had come alone, Fang Wei would never have met him.

After listening to Fang Wei's brief account, Shen Cheng and Yi Xu obtained two pieces of information.

First: The murderer is a person with life-type abilities.

Second: Although the murderer is much stronger than Fang Wei, he has not yet reached the level of an ace and is still within the master level.

Among the five vice presidents of the Red Dinner, there are two people with life-type abilities, namely Bi Lei and Gong Ye Si.

Now the scope of the murderer has finally been determined.

However, Shen Cheng still felt something was wrong. If Bi Lei and Gong Ye Si were really the murderers, why would they be exposed so easily?

Doesn’t the murderer know that if he himself cannot defeat and kill Fang Wei, others will be able to quickly identify him through these characteristics?

Moreover, the murderer has absorbed so much eternal blood, his physique must be extremely strong, and he is fully capable of disguising himself as a life-type ability user.

After Fang Wei finished speaking, she saw that Yi Xu was still thinking, so she asked, "I'm done. Do you know who the murderer is?"

Yi Xu shook his head: "Not sure yet."

"Why are you not sure?"

Fang Wei frowned and said, "Why not call Bi Lei and Gong Ye Si over to confront them?"

Yi Xu said helplessly: "Even if it is really them, they will not admit it, and we don't have conclusive evidence." "What does it matter if they don't admit it."

Fang Wei suggested murderously, "Bi Lei and Gong Ye Si have always been in the same group. Since the murderer is one of them, the other one must not be innocent either. We might as well just kill them both."

It has to be said that Fang Wei's proposal was very much in line with Shen Cheng's wishes.

In fact, there is no need to bother guessing who the murderer is. Killing all the people who might be the murderer can solve the problem once and for all.

"No."

Yi Xu quickly rejected Fang Wei's proposal: "This will trigger a civil war in the headquarters."

Bi Lei and Gong Ye Si will definitely not surrender. Although they have one more person, Shen Cheng, Fang Wei is already injured, and there is a very powerful murderer on the opposite side.

The outcome of a fight between the two sides is unknown, and it is very likely that both sides will suffer losses.

The Scarlet Dinner Party headquarters has long been in an extremely weak state under the suppression of the federal government. If a civil war really breaks out, the outcome will probably only lead to the disintegration of the entire headquarters, which is definitely not what Yi Xu wants to see.

"This won't work, and that won't work either."

Fang Wei glared at Yi Xu in dissatisfaction: "Then what do you think we should do?"

Yi Xu was speechless. He couldn't think of any safe solution for the moment, but he just disagreed with Fang Wei's overly reckless behavior.

Shen Cheng, who had been silent, suddenly said, "Instead of trying to find the murderer, why not try to lure him out?"

Yi Xu and Fang Wei looked at Shen Cheng at the same time.

Fang Wei frowned and asked, "Who is this?"

When Shen Cheng came in, she just glanced at him and didn't care who this guy was.

Yi Xu quickly introduced the two people.

After listening to the introduction, Fang Wei didn't care what branch director Shen Cheng was, and asked directly: "What do you think we should do to lure out the murderer?"

Yi Xu also looked at Shen Cheng with anticipation, hoping that he could come up with a safe solution.

Shen Cheng asked Fang Wei: "How is your injury now?"

Fang Wei hesitated for a moment before answering, "I think I still have 70% of my strength left."

In fact, only 50% was left. She was seriously injured last night and she just didn't want to expose her weakness in front of Shen Cheng and Yi Xu.

"Seventh floor, about the same."

Shen Cheng told the solution he had come up with: "You can announce to the public that your injuries are minor, and support me and Yi Xu in finding the murderer. At the same time, you can spread the news that you are seriously injured and your strength is less than half of what it used to be. Given the murderer's desire for the Eternal Blood, he will most likely come looking for you again. Then the three of us can ambush him together."

"That's it? I thought you had a better idea."

After hearing this, Fang Wei not only did not praise him, but instead sneered: "With the two of you here, how dare the murderer come over again?"

Yi Xu added: "Maybe we can just not show our faces."

Fang Wei sneered, "If you don't show your faces, won't the murderer guess that you are ambushing him? Even a three-year-old child can see through this trap."

At this point, she was already very impatient: "You two guys are unreliable at first glance, why don't you let me do it myself."

Shen Cheng stared at her expression and suddenly said, "What do you mean by coming alone? Are you planning to flee the federal capital overnight and seek refuge outside?"

Fang Wei showed a look of surprise on her face. This was indeed what she had in mind, but the question was how did this guy see through it?

Looking at Fang Wei's expression, Shen Cheng knew that he had guessed right.

It’s not that he is very good at controlling people’s hearts, but there is a person in his family named Xiao Qingque whose personality is very similar to Fang Wei.

When Xiao Qingque encounters danger, his first reaction is definitely to run.

Judging from her own experience, Fang Wei’s reaction should be similar.

Yi Xu observed the expression on Fang Wei's face and asked in surprise, "You really want to run away?"

Fang Wei was quite embarrassed and annoyed when her thoughts were exposed: "If I don't run, am I going to stay and wait for death with you two losers?"

This guy's character is very touching, even Yi Xu, who has known her for many years, couldn't help but frown slightly.

Shen Cheng continued, "I haven't even finished what I was saying, why are you so anxious?"

"Who's in a hurry?"

Fang Wei glared at him unhappily: "Then keep talking, let me see what ivory you can spit out of your dog's mouth."

If it wasn't for catching the murderer, Shen Cheng would have slapped this woman's stinky mouth so hard that it broke into pieces.

No wonder this woman wants to keep her distance from other vice presidents, otherwise she will be beaten to death by the crowd sooner or later just because of her foul mouth.
Shen Cheng suppressed his anger and asked, "You don't trust us, right?"

Fang Wei said as a matter of course: "Of course I don't believe it. Do I know you well?"

"That's right. If you don't trust us, how could you let Yi Xu and I protect you?"

Shen Cheng revealed the key to his plan to lure the snake out of its hole: "Yi Xu and I can protect you publicly, but you don't trust us, so you will definitely leave secretly and go to a place where you think you are absolutely safe. If the murderer knows about this, will he come to find you?"

Yi Xu and Fang Wei were not fools, and Shen Cheng explained it so clearly that they understood the ingenuity of this plan as soon as they heard it.

According to common sense, if the seriously injured Fang Wei was protected by Shen Cheng and Yi Xu, she would never sneak away.

But people who are familiar with Fang Wei know that she is distrustful and alienated from other vice presidents, let alone Shen Cheng, a stranger she meets for the first time.

According to her personality, if she encountered a situation where no one around her could be trusted, she would just choose to leave alone and hide in a safe place.

Therefore, under the protection of Shen Cheng and Yi Xu, it was actually a very reasonable thing for Fang Wei to choose to sneak away alone.

After listening to this, Yi Xu couldn't help but praise Shen Cheng: "This is a good idea, and it's you who came up with it."

Fang Wei had a blank expression on her face because she discovered something.

The murderer appeared out of nowhere and was familiar with all the vice presidents. Doesn't that match the guy in front of me?
He also appeared suddenly and was very familiar with the deceased Zhu Jing. Through Zhu Jing's mouth, he could also know everything about the other vice presidents.

For example, now according to your personality, come up with a suitable plan in a short period of time.

Could this guy be the murderer?
"Fang Wei, do you have any other opinions?"

Seeing Fang Wei silent, Yi Xu couldn't help but ask her a question.

"No."

Fang Wei shook her head and suppressed her suspicion of Shen Cheng: "Just do as you say."
