195: Chapter 195 The murderer is actually a member of the Qin family?

"What do you mean? Cousin, are you saying you suspect even me?"

Qin Mo spread his hands expressionlessly.

"Cousin, you're making things very difficult for me! Even though you are a member of our Qin Family, there are so many foreign guests present today. If I show favoritism, how can our Qin Family maintain its standing in all of Yanjing in the future?"

"Exactly! Qin Xuan, you should just honestly accept Brother Mo's questioning. We definitely believe you're not the killer, but you still have to be questioned!"

A junior of the Qin Family nearby also spoke up.

Qin Mo raised his hand, signaling him to continue.

"This... alright then!"

Qin Xuan nodded somewhat flusteredly, then continued, "I only remember that when that person died, the entire Qin Family fell into chaos all of a sudden. Then someone screamed loudly, and only then did we discover someone had been killed."

Qin Mo nodded calmly and then looked at the other two people.

"What about you two? What were you doing at the time?"

The two men said with stiff expressions, "Our statements are similar to what he said. There were too many people at the time, and we didn't see who did it..."

Qin Mo nodded and then dismissed them all.

Qin Hua, standing to the side, hesitated before asking, "Moer, who do you think did it?"

Qin Mo thought for a moment and said slowly, "Eighty percent chance it was that Qin Xuan, and his motive was to get revenge for Grandfather turning them into ordinary people."

Qin Hua's expression instantly turned cold upon hearing this.

To think he still harbored illusions about that family and hadn't pushed things to the absolute limit; he didn't expect that right after they were punished, they would commit a murder in public.

Moreover, the victim was a foreigner. If this matter wasn't handled properly, the impact on the Qin Family would be immense, especially for their overseas industries; the economic losses then would be absolutely immeasurable.

Qin Hua pondered for a moment, then frowned. "How did you see that it was Qin Xuan?"

Qin Mo spread his hands and said somewhat helplessly, "The man looked panicked and was constantly trying to hide something. It's obvious he has a guilty conscience. I don't know what my Younger Aunt was thinking, looking for someone like that..."

Qin Hua nodded with a grim expression.

"Fine, go and appease the guests. Just say the killer has been found and let the banquet continue. As for everything that happened today, the Qin Family will give them an explanation."

Qin Mo nodded.

"Although I'm certain who the killer is now, I don't have evidence to prove he did it. Can you handle it?"

"Heh..."

Qin Hua gave a cold laugh.

"This alone is enough. Since they refuse to be peaceful, they won't even get to live the life of an ordinary person anymore."

Saying this, Qin Hua turned and walked out of the room.

"I really didn't expect such a thing to happen in the great Qin Family..."

"To the person above, every family has its own problems. The intensity of competition between great families is beyond your imagination. But with the Streamer's strength, they're all just small fry!"

"Haha... when the Streamer was fighting life-and-death battles with criminals, they were still drinking milk. How can they compare?"

"Brother Mo is still Brother Mo. Daring to commit a crime in front of Brother Mo? It's like an old lady crawling into bed—you've got me laughing..."

...

At this time, in the hall, everyone's faces still showed some lingering fear.

They had just come to attend a banquet quietly; who could have thought such a thing would occur...

Qin Mo walked over, scanned the room, and then said with a smile, "I'm sorry, everything that happened today is the fault of my Qin Family."

"Xiao Mo, has the culprit been caught?"

Old Master Gu asked from below with some concern.

Qin Mo smiled slightly.

"The culprit has been caught and has already been taken away by the Uncles in Hats. Because it involves certain circumstances, I cannot tell everyone exactly who the culprit is. I hope you can all understand this."

"Alright, that little interlude is over. Everyone, please continue to enjoy yourselves."

As he spoke, Qin Mo smiled, picked up a glass of red wine, and drank it in one gulp.

Seeing this, the surrounding people also began to socialize again.

...

Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, it was already evening.

By now, the original guests in the hall had long since dispersed, and almost everyone had left.

Qin Mo looked at the moon in the sky with some emotion; three years had passed in an instant.

He now possessed everything he hadn't dared to dream of before and had successfully found his family. If there was anything left that he wasn't satisfied with, it would be to take a good look at this world...

"I've sent them in."

Just then, a calm voice sounded.

Qin Mo instinctively turned around and found that the one speaking was his old man.

Qin Mo nodded.

"Did Grandfather say anything?"

"Your grandfather was very angry! He personally gave the orders."

"He originally thought the punishment was severe enough, but he never expected that just to vent their spite, they would sacrifice the life of an unrelated person. This is something your grandfather absolutely cannot forgive."

Qin Mo nodded.

"How was Younger Aunt's family handled?"

Qin Hua paused for a moment and said flatly, "Everyone who participated in this incident has been sent in. Those who didn't participate have been expelled from the Qin Family. Their branch now has no relation to the Qin Family whatsoever."

Qin Mo nodded.

He understood that this was Grandfather venting anger on his behalf; it was killing the chicken to warn the monkey. It was also telling the people of the Qin Family that he, Qin Mo, was not to be trifled with. After all, he would surely face resistance when he took over the Qin Family in the future.

Besides that, there was also external pressure. If the internal problems weren't handled first, then there would be no way to deal with external ones.

When that time came, the trouble would be huge. The Qin Family had been rooted in Yanjing for decades and could be said to have weathered all kinds of great storms. If they couldn't even handle a mere internal problem, how could they continue to stand tall in Yanjing?

"Alright, get some rest early! By the way, your wedding with Lanlan is set for the second day of next month. Prepare yourself well. You better not fail her; she stayed with you when you had nothing. Don't go doing something foolish now that you've made it."

"Otherwise, let alone me not letting you off, even your grandfather won't let you off!"

"Do you hear me?"

Qin Mo rubbed his forehead helplessly.

Did he really look like the type of person who would abandon someone?

"Alright, Dad! I know. Don't worry, I'm definitely not that kind of person!"

"Good!"

Qin Hua nodded with satisfaction and then turned to leave.

Qin Mo looked at the mess in the hall with a forehead full of black lines.

Was it obvious he was supposed to clean this up?

...

"Hahaha... I didn't expect the Streamer to have a day like this."

"Shocking! The dignified Young Master of the Qin Family is actually assigned by his dad to clean up. I want to speak up for the cleaning lady! You're stealing her job!"
