Gentle Sleep Instructor
Chapter 1497 Traitor
However, Jiangcheng didn't listen to his explanation at all. He turned to look at Shao Tong. Ever since Wu appeared, Shao Tong's attention had been almost entirely on Wu. "Brother Shao, based on your understanding of the Night Watchmen, do you think there might be other Night Watchmen moles among Zhu Jie and Tang Qisheng?"
Shao Tong was silent for a moment, then turned his head to size up Zhu Jie and Tang Qisheng. The two felt a chill run down their spines from the gaze. Tang Qisheng couldn't help but explain, "Brother Shao, I used to offend you in many ways, but that... that was for the good of us all. You can't hold a grudge against me!"
"I know." Shao Tong nodded very naturally, then turned around and shook his head apologetically to Jiangcheng, "Sorry, I can't tell."
"Then what does Brother Shao think?" Jiangcheng continued to ask.
Shao Tong stroked his chin and sighed with some difficulty, "I'm not sure if there are any other moles among them, but I can be sure that if there really are, then this person's level is far higher than me and Lu Qin's group, and leaving this person behind will cause us big trouble."
Jiangcheng looked at Shao Tong, "So..."
"The only way is to kill all three of them to prevent future troubles." Shao Tong stretched out his hand and made a neck-slitting motion, his movements clean and efficient.
Zhu Jie heard this and looked at the knife in Wu's hand. Although she felt despair in her heart, there was nothing she could do. They had no chance of winning against this guy.
Tang Qisheng stretched out his hand and pointed shakily at Shao Tong, his eyes filled with despair. Who would have thought that they wouldn't die at the hands of ghosts, but would be killed by their own people? "You... you're too vicious!"
Shao Tong showed an apologetic expression to Zhu Jie and Tang Qisheng, "Sorry, I'm forced by the situation. You can understand, right?"
Under Jiangcheng's instructions, Shao Tong and the fatty took action and quickly tied up Zhu Jie and Tang Qisheng, who had given up resisting. Then they made them kneel in a row with Yao Shunyu, facing away from them.
Shao Tong pressed Tang Qisheng into the first position, the fatty was responsible for guarding Zhu Jie, and Yao Shunyu silently knelt at the end, not crying, not struggling, lowering his head, not knowing what he was thinking.
The fatty slapped Tang Qisheng's head hard and roared, "Speak! Is it you guys! A real man dares to act and dares to take responsibility! Don't implicate innocent people on the road to the Yellow Springs!"
Seeing that persuasion was ineffective, Wu also gave up. He raised his knife, ready to attack Tang Qisheng. Zhu Jie turned her head away, unable to watch, and the suppressed sobbing made the fatty feel annoyed and flustered.
Suddenly, Tang Qisheng struggled violently, "Don't kill me yet! I'll talk, I'll tell you everything! I'm a mole, sent by the Night Watchmen! But Zhu Jie... Zhu Jie isn't, she doesn't know, she's innocent, you can kill me, but don't hurt her!"
Wu slowly raised his knife, ignoring Tang Qisheng's words. Shao Tong leaned down slightly and pressed down hard on the struggling Tang Qisheng. A cold light flashed, but Zhu Jie didn't feel the hot blood splattering. Instead, she heard the crisp sound of metal clashing, and the fatty slowly widened his eyes. The scene before him caused his brain to crash instantly.
"Did... did I reveal any flaws?" Shao Tong smiled and looked at Wu. Wu's knife was stopped at Shao Tong's neck, and one of Shao Tong's hands was tightly clutching the blade.
This knife was aimed at Shao Tong, but it seemed he had been prepared for it.
The next second, another sharp aura came from behind and attacked Shao Tong, but Shao Tong reacted extremely quickly. An afterimage flashed, and he instantly moved to a distance.
Behind the position where Shao Tong had just stood, a short figure slowly walked out. Grandpa Shui was holding a cane in one hand and stroking the few remaining whiskers with the other, his whole body exuding a terrifying aura, "As expected, this old man was right. You bastard's ambition hasn't died. Taking Chun Shen Lake wasn't enough, you had to take this old man's life!"
The fatty looked at Grandpa Shui, who had come back to life, and then at Shao Tong in the distance. Suddenly, his brain wasn't working properly. The most important thing was that Yao Shunyu, who was kneeling at the end, also stood up. Not only was his arm fine, but he also had a dagger in his hand, and he had cut the rope himself.
Yao Shunyu nodded to Jiangcheng, put away the dagger, and returned to the team.
Zhu Jie and Tang Qisheng, who were kneeling on the ground, were also dumbfounded. Although they didn't quite understand what was happening, they saw that Yao Shunyu, who was suspected, was fine, so they struggled to stand up, but were frightened by Jiangcheng's glance, "Don't move, I don't want to accidentally hurt you."
"Okay, okay." Tang Qisheng sensibly squatted back down and pulled Zhu Jie along with him.
Jiangcheng looked at Shao Tong in the distance. This person didn't show any fear in the face of Wu and Grandpa Shui, two top-level paranormal entities. On the contrary, he looked at himself with great interest, "Still that question, did I reveal any flaws?"
Jiangcheng sighed and scratched his head again, saying with some difficulty, "You're stupid, you revealed many flaws. I don't know which one to start with."
"Then pick the main ones." Shao Tong still had that annoying smile.
"You have to know that the identity you're pretending to be is a pawn abandoned by the Night Watchmen, but as an abandoned pawn, you know too many secrets. The Night Watchmen aren't idiots, would they need to tell you so much?" Jiangcheng sighed, "Although your explanation for this is that you used your ability to peek into Lu Qin's memories, I'm telling you that even with Lu Qin's stupidity, she doesn't deserve to know so many secrets, so either you didn't tell the truth, or the person who was really being groomed wasn't you, but Lu Qin. You're the most important part of this mission!"
"That's about what I thought, but what really made you confirm it should be from Zhang Qizheng's death. You used the excuse to let me get the broom, but I accidentally went the wrong way, and it was too late when I realized it." Shao Tong said with some regret.
"That's right, the place where the sundries are piled is right outside the door, and there are many brooms there, but you insisted on going to the courtyard gate to get one, which is very strange. I think the reason is that you took a cell phone from behind the sundries not long ago, and you subconsciously wanted to avoid that place." Jiangcheng said calmly.
Hearing this, Tang Qisheng immediately became excited, "Yes, yes, I put that phone there, I turned on the camera, it must be... it must have recorded Brother Shao, him... bah, recorded Shao Tong, this traitor, killing old Mr. Zhang, so my suspicion can be cleared, brothers, I couldn't possibly be with him, don't you think that makes sense?"
Seeming to be annoyed by Tang Qisheng's noise, Wu turned his head and glanced at him. The next second, Tang Qisheng went silent, pulling Zhu Jie to squat obediently by the wall, the two huddled together, looking very pitiful.
