C14 14th Chapter
The first person Hu Donghai found was his junior high school classmate, who was also Hou Liming's brother.
That classmate's surname was Yang. Now that he had a grocery store, he was scared silly when he saw Hu Donghai. "Dong Hai, you're out. We studied together. I even treated you to a water fried bun."
"I'm out."
"I had a good relationship with Hou Liming back then. We fought a few times, but it has been so many years. You don't want to take revenge on me, do you?"
"Am I that evil?" Hu Donghai smiled bitterly.
"It is said that you have a grudge against the ancestors of the Hou family for eight generations! When the public security caught you, you said that it was too much of a pity that you didn't kill his whole family..."
Hu Donghai grabbed Student Yang's collar. "Who created this rumor for me?" He then released his grip and smoothed his collar. "Old Yang, I'm asking you something serious. Did Hou Liming contact you?"
Student Yang shivered. "Don't joke around. Li Ming is dead. It has been so many years. How could it be..." "Tell me honestly, what happened to Hou Liming back then?" Hu Donghai stared into Student Yang's eyes. Student Yang gasped in fear. "He changed after he got addicted to gambling."
"I heard that he was addicted to playing cards."
"Playing cards is small. Later on, he played dice. He was very wild."
After Hou Liming fell into the abyss of gambling, he still looked like a big brother. People became selfish and impulsive. Not long after they got married, they lost their television and tape recorder. During those two years, he had been under a lot of mental pressure. His father had been suffering from panic attacks while lying in bed. There were a lot of rumors about his father. He felt depressed and decided to bet. Later on, he used himself as a procurement officer in the Supply Department. From financial fraud, he took large amounts of money and transferred them to other accounts. Then he gambled, fantasizing that he would make up for it after he won. The more he gambled, the more he lost, the bigger the hole became. He couldn't make up for it at all.
When the matter was exposed, Hou Liming was beaten to death by Hu Donghai in Ba He. The matter was left unsettled. After listening to Student Yang's narration, Hu Donghai finally confirmed it.
In the past, corruption of public funds and gambling was a serious crime. Hou Liming had always thought of ways to escape punishment. When he heard that Hu Donghai scolded his father in front of everyone, he had a plan. In fact, Hu Donghai used to be like this, but that time Hou Liming did not tolerate it anymore. He deliberately invited Hu Donghai to Ba He to fight and created a commotion. In the eyes of others, it just happened to be a reasonable action in the name of his father.
The reason Hou Liming chose Hu Donghai was to make use of Hu Donghai's resentment towards the Hou family to give him a motive to kill. Moreover, Hu Donghai had a bad reputation since he was young, so framing him and carefully fabricating a death scene could be said to be a smooth sailing process.
Due to Hou Liming's scheme, the best time in Hu Donghai's life was dug out, and he was reduced to the dregs of being crushed and abandoned by the era. This debt had to be settled thoroughly!
Student Yang looked at Hu Donghai in a daze.
Hu Donghai pondered for a moment and asked, "Other than you guys, there was someone else Hou Liming was dating back then, right?" Student Yang was stunned.
"You guys aren't the only ones in Hou Liming's circle. I heard he has friends everywhere." Student Yang thought for a moment and said, "I remember that he had a heated fight with some strange people." "Strange people?"
"They claim to have some kind of special skill and exceptional work." Student Yang couldn't help but laugh. He shook his head and said, "Hou Liming often mingles with them. He says they are the 'Black Sa' in the Jianghu circle."
The so-called 'Black Sa' was a person who was very good at doing things, but never made a big deal out of himself. In the local dialect, 'Black Sa' is the head.
Student Yang told Hu Donghai that Hou Liming had tried to pull him into that circle, but he refused. He thought it was a group of gangsters and scammers messing around. However, he heard that some people did have some skills. After hard work, although they were all ordinary people, they had learned extraordinary skills.
Hu Donghai understood. Those people were actually the young version of Old Lock and Yellow River's Corpse Fishing People. They had discovered common and common things and used them as wondrous abilities. Even ordinary people could have them. It all depended on whether or not they wanted to suffer.
There were many strange people who came from great suffering. They either had a hard life or had a hard life.
Hou Liming had made friends with those people in the past because he had been influenced by their persistence and persistence. He wanted to obtain the path of life and change his fate from another direction.
Hu Donghai knew how to find him.
