Under such temptation, Guan Xiaoxian also developed selfish motives.

He agreed to help Tang Zhuqing execute this evil plan.

After returning to Wulan City, Guan Xiaoxian had been waiting for a message from Tang Zhuqing. About a month later, Tang Zhuqing gave him the route Zhang Rou would take to return home to visit her family.

Hearing this,

Chen Fang asked, "Was Zhang Rou first raped and then murdered at that time? Did you arrange for the people who did it?"

Guan Xiaoxian shook his head and said, "I didn't arrange for it; it was Tang Zhuqing who sent people. Three brothers: the eldest was named Chen Jiashu, the second Chen Jiagen, and the youngest Chen Jiadi. I don't know much about them, I only know that all three brothers had been soldiers and seen battlefields, and they were all ruthless characters. My task in Wulan City was just to arrange the brothers' accommodation and provide transportation."

Just like that,

Zhang Rou's body was discarded in the wilderness.

Not long after this incident,

Tang Zhuqing told Guan Xiaoxian she was pregnant.

But she wouldn't have an abortion.

She intended to bring this child into the Xu Family, allowing their child to become the Xu family's heir.

Such words deeply moved Guan Xiaoxian.

This was also why Guan Xiaoxian had always been wholeheartedly devoted to Tang Zhuqing.

Later on,

Tang Zhuqing, somehow, managed to get into Xu Li's bed and took this opportunity to enter into high society, becoming the daughter-in-law of the Xu Family, and with her cunning ways, she prospered within the Xu Family.

Of course,

after establishing this connection with Tang Zhuqing,

Guan Xiaoxian's business indeed improved more and more.

Step by step, it grew stronger, leading to what is now the Boiling Point Group.

"What about Xu Xuchuan? Was his sacrifice related to you?"

Chen Fang continued to ask.

Guan Xiaoxian shook his head and said, "That has nothing to do with me; I heard about it afterward. Honestly, I also suspected it might be Tang Zhuqing's doing, and I asked her about it, but she denied it, so I didn't pay much attention to it."

He didn't seem to be lying.

Time was of the essence, and Chen Fang didn't dwell on this matter.

He said, "Next, let's talk about the psychiatric hospital. Lin Jiaya and Yao Man, as well as those girls I don't know about, were they all violated by you?"

"No!"

Guan Xiaoxian said.

Chen Fang and Chen Rulin looked at each other, asking, "No? Then who was it?"

Guan Xiaoxian looked at Chen Fang and said, "The secretary of the Wulan City's municipal committee at the time, now the vice chairman of the provincial People's Congress, Lin Duangxiong."

Upon hearing this name,

both of their eyes widened.

The result was too shocking.

They never imagined that the beastly man would be Lin Duangxiong.

The one who had arranged all this was not Guan Xiaoxian, but Tang Zhuqing.

Lin Duangxiong had a particular fondness: he was insatiably lecherous, but his lasciviousness was different from others, he had high standards; he wouldn't touch anyone who wasn't a virgin.

But where to find so many virgins nowadays?

It happened that Boiling Point Group was doing charity work at the psychiatric hospital, where Guan Xiaoxian inadvertently discovered that quite a few young girls there were not only pretty but also important virgins. Furthermore, because these girls were mentally ill, even if they were violated, no one would believe their words.

So, he found the head of the psychiatric hospital at the time, Sun Qilin.

Sun Qilin was also a greedy man.

They hit it off right away.

Thus followed the victimization of Lin Jiaya, Yao Man, and others.

Of course, there were more than just these two girls who truly suffered; in Guan Xiaoxian's memory, there should be at least five, but he could not recall their names at all.

Initially, everything had been going smoothly, and no issues had surfaced.

However, at that very moment, Gong Qiu transferred to the psychiatric hospital as a nurse.

She discovered that the girl had been violated.

She even touched upon Guan Xiaoxian's lakeside villa.

The day she was victimized, she hid in her dormitory and called her husband Shi Ming for help, but by a cruel twist of fate, Sun Qilin overheard her.

He knew that Gong Qiu had to be dealt with, or else a disaster was imminent.

So, he lured Gong Qiu to the rooftop under the pretence of discussing the girls' victimization, but Gong Qiu never imagined that Sun Qilin would lead her to her death.

The moment she stepped onto the rooftop, Sun Qilin pushed her off.

When Shi Ming arrived at the scene, all he found was Gong Qiu's corpse.

Then, Zhang Jiangming made his move. He took over the scene and transferred the case to the city bureau's criminal police team, and just like that, all evidence of Sun Qilin's murder was eradicated.

"Several months later, Shi Ming also died. That was your doing as well, wasn't it?"

Chen Fang asked.

Guan Xiaoxian nodded.

He said, "At first, we didn't take Shi Ming seriously, but no one expected that he would keep lurking near the lakeside villa. He even secretly captured a photo of Lin Duangxiong entering the villa. That's when we knew Shi Ming had to go too."

Next.

It was Fang Xiumei's turn.

They fabricated a prostitution and solicitation report first.

Shi Ming, who was on duty that day, led the team to the scene.

Once there, Fang Xiumei secretly told Shi Ming that she knew the secret of Gong Qiu's murder, but she had one condition: she had to talk to him alone, or else she wouldn't say a word.

This move immediately hooked Shi Ming.

He was desperate to know the truth about his wife's death.

So he sent the other team members away.

Leaving just him and Fang Xiumei alone in the room.

"I've seen the previous reports, and it's true that Shi Ming's bodily fluids were found inside Fang Xiumei. What's the story there?"

Chen Fang asked.

Guan Xiaoxian said, "After the other team members left, I arranged for my man Chen Jinmin to go in. We forced Shi Ming to swallow an aphrodisiac, then we restrained him. Fang Xiumei then initiated intercourse with him before we dumped him into the Ming River Reservoir. Meanwhile, Fang Xiumei reported the crime, and our entire plan left no loose ends."

Hearing the course of these events.

Chen Fang's heart felt as if it were blocked by a stone.

The feeling was truly suffocating.

And Chen Rulin, who was by his side, already had moist eyes. Chen Fang noticed that her fists were clenched tight, as if she was ready to rush forward and give Guan Xiaoxian a good beating at any moment.

Chen Fang reached out and patted Chen Rulin lightly on the shoulder.

He gave her an encouraging look.

Chen Rulin then managed to control her emotions.

"What about Song Yan? How did he die?"

Chen Fang continued to ask.

Guan Xiaoxian said, "Just like Shi Ming. Shi Ming's death had already been ruled a suicide, but Song Yan kept digging into it. What was more lethal was that Song Yan was even more capable than Shi Ming. He actually followed the clues to Chen Jinmin..."

The sense of crisis grew stronger.

Guan Xiaoxian knew that Song Yan couldn't be left alone either.

But they couldn't use the same method again, they had to come up with a new plan to make Song Yan's death look more natural.

So.

He arranged for Chen Jinmin to call Song Yan.

He confessed that he did indeed commit the murder of Shi Ming, but it was arranged by higher-ups. If he revealed the truth, he wouldn't be able to live, so he planned to withdraw some cash from the bank. After getting the money, he would share the truth with Song Yan, and then he would have to flee.

At this point.

Chen Rulin interrupted him.

She asked, "Why did Song Yan bring a gun with him?"

Guan Xiaoxian said, "That was also Chen Jinmin's request. He said that his plan to flee had been noticed by the people above. They would very likely send someone to kill him, so he asked Song Yan to bring a gun just in case. Sure enough, Song Yan was easily misled and stepped right into the trap laid out specifically for him."
