Chapter 883 - Feeling Guilty and Afraid (1/2)

However, how had he tampered with this railing? If he had switched it, it would have caused quite a commotion. He would definitely have been discovered. Exactly how had he broken it?

Upon seeing that he was still talking, Huo Xiao got angry. Even if he was faking it, he should pretend to be in peaceful relations with his brothers. He was doing this on purpose to show him!

Later, he had heard from Ah Zhou that Fifth Daughter-in-Law had gone overboard. She had wanted to kill a chicken in front of a monkey[1]. She kicked the dog down the second floor and seized the opportunity to curse at Sheng Sheng and Xiaoqi. However, she ended up suffering a double loss. Now, she had also been schemed against by this b*stard Sixth Son.

“Father, I don’t believe the railing will break for no reason,” Huo Pei was extremely angry.

“Grandpa, you have to seek justice for my mother.” Huo Xuan’an’s eyes also reddened as he said in a hoarse voice, “The railing was still fine yesterday. Why did it break as soon as Sixth Uncle returned?!”

“What do you people want?” Huo Xiao’s face was cold.

“Grandpa, won’t we know if someone tampered with the railing by getting someone to take a look?” Upon seeing his own mother fall like that, Huo Xuan’an was furious and his heart ached. Anyway, he would not let the murderer get away with it.

Sixth Uncle must have done it! No one else at home would do that except him!

Huo Xiao took a look at Huo Ci and glared at him ferociously. He pointed at him and gritted his teeth, “Get over here now!”

After Huo Ci hung up the video call, he looked nonchalant. It was impossible for him to go over. However, he did say righteously, “Father, in order to prove my innocence, no matter what Fifth Brother and the others want to do, I’ll definitely cooperate.”

Huo Xiao did not want to agree. Did they want to kick up such a fuss for everyone to know about the matter at home? Upon hearing Huo Ci’s words, he glared at him again.

On the other handm Huo Pei and Huo Xuan’an were a little confused. They took a look at Huo Ci, not knowing what he wanted to do.

Huo Ci spoke again. “However, Fifth Brother, I agreed to do the investigation because I didn’t do it. By getting someone to come over, it means that you people already believe that I did it. Father, when the results are out, and it proves that I’m innocent, what do you plan to do? Kneel on the ground and kowtow to me to apologize?”

Huo Xiao’s face darkened. When Huo Pei said he wanted to find someone to appraise it, he had already angered him. “Fifth Son, what do you think?”

Huo Pei said, “Father, what if he did it? Will you uphold justice for us?”

Huo Xiao said, “If he did it, I’ll break his legs!”

Huo Pei made up his mind. He had to investigate this. He could not let that b*stard Sixth Brother have it easy. His expression changed again and again. “I promise him!”

Huo Ci said, “Fifth Brother, when it comes to that time, you better not use your status to suppress me then.”

“Sixth Brother, I advise you not to be happy too early. Be careful of your legs!” Huo Pei did not believe that he did not leave any clues behind when he did this.

His good friend, Zheng Guo, was the most impressive investigator in the National Search Department. As long as he took action, he definitely would not let the criminal escape. As long as he did it, he would definitely be caught.

Huo Ci did not reply either and went up the stairs.

Huo Pei could clearly see the flash of panic in Huo Ci’s eyes. He was even more sure that he was guilty. He was definitely feeling guilty.

He was a hardened gambler. He called out to stop Huo Ci, “Sixth Brother, since you’ve said that, I’m afraid you won’t learn from your lesson if we are to bet on your legs alone.”
