Dragon King Palace: Urban Affluent Son-in-Law-Chapter 1238: Flayed Alive, Torn Tendon, and Scattered to Ashes!
Just as Jiang Feng had spent a morning of boundless allure, running with Feng Yueji in silent understanding—
Ao Zhong, the bodyguard of the Lin Family from Capital City, had already arrived at Jiangdong Province with several elite members!
They hardly needed to investigate before learning about the events that transpired at the Wilson Hotel last night.
Upon hearing that the corpse found in the presidential suite might be their young master, their first reaction was disbelief, but soon they were anxiously and angrily rushing to the Provincial City's action department to identify the body! 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞
It must be said, Lin Zekai was quite unlucky. In life, he was extremely glamorous, yet after being killed by Fang Wei's ruthlessly cold tactics, his corpse lay unclaimed for half the night.
This was all because Fang Wei destroyed all his identification documents, phones, and even disfigured his face, making identification extremely difficult.
People like Baili Xi and Shi Yaokun, although they learned of his death through their own channels, had no obligation to collect his body; it was up to the Lin Family to identify him.
"Tell your superior to get out here immediately! Damn it, if you dare dawdle, don't blame me for losing my temper!"
Ao Zhong roared angrily as he arrived outside the action department's entrance!
Though merely a servant of the Lin Family, he displayed an extremely arrogant demeanor as if looking down on everyone!
"You are…?"
The several members of the action department looked stunned and frowned.
"I am Ao Zhong, the bodyguard of the Lin Family's eldest young master, Lin Liansheng! I heard you brought back a male corpse last night; I'm here to confirm something!" Ao Zhong gritted his teeth.
Upon hearing the name of the Lin Family of Beijing, the officers grew wary and immediately invited Ao Zhong and others inside: "Mr. Ao, it's true that the deceased may indeed be from the Capital City; he was registered at the hotel without providing identification, leaving us clueless. Your timing couldn't be better!"
Previously, Lin Zekai had spent a fortune opening a room at the Wilson Hotel, but since he was with an assassin like Fire Scorpion, he didn't want to reveal his identity, hence no ID was provided.
Unexpectedly, this made post-mortem identification difficult and caused unnecessary delays.
"Take me to the morgue, now!!"
Ao Zhong shouted, knowing better than anyone the consequences of Lin Zekai being the deceased.
Madam Ai Sichun would surely go mad, and given the key time for the eldest young master's competition among brothers, Lin Zekai's death would inevitably trigger a chain reaction, eventually tarnishing the family's reputation and directly impacting Lin Liansheng's succession!
The action department had no choice but to escort Ao Zhong to the morgue.
Upon seeing the ghastly corpse, Ao Zhong nearly fainted, his limbs turning cold!
Young Master!!! Who else could it be but Young Master?!!
Ao Zhong had been by Lin Liansheng's side for years, surely he couldn't fail to recognize even the young master's body?
Facial disfigurement or not, he would recognize him even if he was turned to ash!
"Young Master! Kai Young Master!!!"
Ao Zhong cried out, rushing forward to embrace Lin Zekai's cold body, tears of blood seeping from his eyes.
The officers exchanged glances and immediately realized the deceased was indeed part of the Lin Family.
"Who did this? Quickly, tell me, who the hell did this?!!"
Suddenly Ao Zhong stood up, gripping the neck of a leading officer, grinding his steel teeth: "In puny Jiangdong, someone dared lay hands on our young master?? Who has the audacity?! Hmm??? I'll flay him alive!!!"
"Mr. Ao, please, calm down, calm down!!"
The officers were terrified and silent, the one being grabbed broke free and said, holding back anger: "Since you can confirm the deceased's identity, please come back to the office to make a record and assist in the investigation…"
"I'll assist your damn mother!"
Ao Zhong cursed: "You useless bunch, my young master died on your turf and you still haven't caught the culprit? What the hell are you doing?! Just wait till my family's eldest says the word, you'll all be stripped and begging on the streets!"
"Mr. Ao, you—"
"Shut up!" Ao Zhong growled: "I'm calling the eldest and the madam right now, you do as you see fit, one more word and I'll cut out your tongues!"
Finished, Ao Zhong shakily took out his phone and dialed Lin Liansheng in the Capital City.
...
At the same time.
Lin Liansheng and Ai Sichun were restless in their villa.
They hadn't rested since the latter half of the night, waiting for news from Ao Zhong.
Finally, the phone rang, and Lin Liansheng picked it up immediately: "Ao Zhong, what's the situation, any news of Xiao Kai?"
"Eldest Young Master, I have unfortunate news, you and Madam must brace yourselves…"
Ao Zhong's sorrowful voice said.
Boom!!
Just hearing Ao Zhong's tone, Lin Liansheng and Ai Sichun felt as if the sky had collapsed, was their premonition turning real, had something happened to their son?
"Ao Zhong! Speak clearly, what happened to my son, my precious son!!"
Ai Sichun frantically grabbed the phone, demanding.
"Madam, I beg you to stay strong, the young master has already… been assassinated…"
"Aah!!!"
Hearing the bad news, Ai Sichun rolled her eyes and fainted.
"Ao Zhong, what did you say? Xiao Kai… he was killed???"
Lin Liansheng took the phone, trembling all over as he asked!
"Yes, I'm in the morgue now, it's true, the young master was not only killed but died miserably, his face unrecognizable, all identification gone, the killer left no trace, the action department here is still at a loss…"
"Aah!!"
Lin Liansheng also screamed, waking the fainted Ai Sichun, who rose like a deranged beast, hair disheveled, barefoot and desolate!
"Ao Zhong! Listen to me, keep an eye on Xiao Kai's body, we're heading over there now, I don't care who did it, dares to harm my son, if Jiangdong doesn't give me an explanation, I'll turn it upside down!!!"
Lin Liansheng roared!
"Yes!!!"
Ao Zhong immediately obeyed and hung up the phone.
"Liansheng, what do we do? Our son is dead, Xiao Kai is gone!! As a mother, I don't want to live anymore!" Ai Sichun cried, her spirit collapsing!
"Just shut up!"
Lin Liansheng said through gritted teeth: "The priority now is to go to Jiangdong and get to the bottom of this, everyone who held grudges with Xiao Kai while he was alive will be buried with him! As for the assassin and mastermind, I'll find them one by one, flay them, grind them, scatter their ashes!!"
