Chapter 232 Conjecture
"I understand. You're doing this for my own good." Tie Jinjue's tone was much calmer. "But it's dangerous for you to do this. I don't want anything to happen to you. Besides, we should hold our ground for now to prevent exposing our target."
"Elder Tie, I understand. I didn't keep my composure this time. I hope you can forgive me." Qin Ding bowed.
Qin Ding used to have a very impatient personality. Under the influence of Tie Jinjue for a long time, he is no longer as impulsive as before, but sometimes he still loses his temper.
"Now that we have done it, we can only face the current situation. I don't know how the clan leader will investigate this matter. I hope he won't suspect you." Tie Jinjue took a deep breath and said.
The next day, there were only Tie Wandao and Tie Jinjue in the meeting room of Bakong Palace.
"Although we haven't found out who the murderer is yet, I think it must have been the man in blue armor who poisoned him!" Tie Wandao said.
"Why is the clan leader so sure?" Tie Jinjue asked.
"Except for the blue-armored people, I can't think of any other reason for Dong Su to be killed. This matter should be related to Han Song being killed by Dong Su. Perhaps another blue-armored person wanted to avenge Han Song, so he killed Dong Su."
"Oh... But, who among the blue-armored people knows Dong Su's residence and has the opportunity to get close to his residence?" Tie Jinjue asked deliberately in order to divert Tie Wandao's thoughts elsewhere.
The residence that Tie Wandao arranged for Dong Su is located in the same area as Bakong Palace, Aoqian Palace and Hongfeng Palace. This area is a special area and usually people with blue armor are not allowed to enter at will, unless someone with blue armor is brought in by someone from Tiecang.
"That's a problem... I can't think of any blue-armored man who can get close..." Tie Wandao also felt that this was indeed a problem. Dong Su had not been Tie Wandao's subordinate for a long time, but he was good at martial arts, looked humble and polite, and was good at adapting to circumstances. In addition, when he was with Tie Wandao, he was particularly good at catering to his preferences, so he was deeply trusted by Tie Wandao. Therefore, Tie Wandao would safely entrust him with some important matters, and he did not have many concerns when talking to him. Dong Su used to live in the same area with Tie Wandao's other subordinates. Later, Tie Wandao valued Dong Su and arranged a separate residence for him.
"Dong Su originally lived in the same area with those subordinates. Later, I sometimes asked him to help me with some things that were inconvenient to make public, so I arranged a separate residence for him. Unexpectedly, he was murdered in his private residence." Tie Wandao sighed.
"Who could be familiar with his residence?" Tie Jinjue seemed to be talking to himself, but he was actually speaking to Tie Wandao.
"Most of my other subordinates are familiar with Dong Su's residence. They used to live in the same area, but later Dong Su moved to a separate residence. Other subordinates would sometimes go there to look for him." Tie Wandao said this and suddenly thought of something, "Could it be done by one of our own people? My other subordinates?"
"Chief, I have something to ask but I don't know whether I should ask it or not." Tie Jinjue said.
"go ahead!"
"Has your arrangement of a separate residence for Dong Su caused dissatisfaction among your other subordinates?"
Hearing this, Tie Wandao was stunned and said, "I really haven't considered this aspect! I have been paying more attention to Dong Su recently, but I haven't paid much attention to the thoughts of other subordinates."
"Do you have any subordinates that you used to value very much, but have been neglected recently because you value Dong Su very much?"
