Chapter 374 Purple Moon
"Why do you think he is not a murderer?" Zhou Xiaoxiao was still not giving up and asked further.
Su Ming lowered his head, thought for a few seconds, smiled and shook his head: "I don't know, I just feel that he is not. If he is really a murderer, even if he has lost his memory, some instincts should still remain , right? I don't think that people who lose their memory are completely changed, because many people who have lost their memory can speak and understand what others say, which proves that the memory is just broken, not completely disappeared.
I personally think that the person who did those things might have been wrongly accused… Although, I also can’t understand why he wanted to escape.
If he hadn’t run away, I would have really thought he was wrongly accused.”
One answer conveyed to Zhou Xiaoxiao that he was a psychological rubbish and did not understand people's thinking habits . This was also to make it easier for the other party to believe his subsequent disguise.
Obviously Zhou Xiaoxiao's trust in him has greatly increased. Although she still has some doubts, she has begun to believe that he might really be a young wealthy man who looks exactly like Su Ming and has an extremely similar voice.
This result is exactly what Su Ming wants to see. If Zhou Xiaoxiao recognizes that he is an ordinary young rich man, then more people in this city will believe him, because Zhou Xiaoxiao is an investigator trusted by the top leaders. The conclusions drawn by him, an esper who is proficient in observation, are more convincing than the intuition of ordinary people.
Afterwards, Zhou Xiaoxiao still asked Su Ming a lot of questions, but the traps in his questions were more obvious, so Su Ming naturally answered them fluently.
It is estimated that after Zhou Xiaoxiao returns, someone will come to visit him from time to time, but as long as he can survive the subsequent questioning, his identity in the Molten Iron City should be cleared. The Molten Iron City and the Four Alliances are hostile forces, so it is impossible to cooperate with the Four Alliances, let alone use the power of the Four Alliances to detect him.
His identity as the young master of the Xia family was bought with a large sum of money, and everyone in the Xia family agreed to the deal, so it didn't matter even if Zhou Xiaoxiao wanted to investigate his identity in depth.
Although the Xia Ming family he pretended to be seemed prosperous on the surface, it was already heavily in debt and had fallen into a situation where it was drinking poison to quench thirst.
The Xia family expanded their foreign trade business, borrowed money from major banks to open up new trade routes, and did business with more suppliers. However, due to bad luck and repeated sudden and strange events, they suffered heavy losses.
The newly opened channels require a lot of money to maintain, but the Xia family no longer has enough money, so they fell into a situation where they could turn their fortunes around if they had money, and it would only take a few years to increase the family assets fivefold, but if they had no money they would go bankrupt, and everyone in the family would only become an ordinary rich man.
Faced with huge profits, they finally decided to help Su Ming, the fugitive suspected of being a murderer, and Su Ming was responsible for paying the money to help them maintain those trade channels.
Su Ming knew that one day, when the Xia family got rid of the economic crisis, they would report him, but not within a year at least, because within a year, they would definitely need Su Ming's support, so within a year they would definitely recognize Su Ming's identity as the young master of the Xia family.
What the Xia family didn't know was that as long as Su Ming wanted, they had to continue to recognize Su Ming's identity, because when a person has unlimited wealth, then supporting a certain force and suppressing a certain force can be carried out simultaneously. When a person's soul is tempted by capital, then those who possess capital can manipulate the behavior of the tempted person at will.
In short, before finding out the truth, Su Ming will temporarily have to get along with the Xia family as Xia Ming. Although the sudden appearance of a large family of "relatives" and two "brothers" makes Su Ming feel very awkward, compared with his new identity, this discomfort is completely bearable.
"Sorry for disturbing you today. Thank you for your cooperation." Zhou Xiaoxiao took notes, stood up and bowed to apologize.
Su Ming also stood up, smiled slightly, and shrugged to show that he didn't care: "It doesn't matter, it's actually quite interesting. If you need my cooperation in the future, feel free to come back."
"Okay, thank you."
Just as he finished speaking, the sunlight from the floor-to-ceiling window behind him suddenly disappeared, and a lavender light shone in from outside, making the entire living room dim.
Almost in an instant, Su Ming felt a strange feeling. He couldn't explain it clearly. That strange feeling couldn't be called a sense of crisis, but it was not completely without threats.
That feeling... was like someone who was resting in a safe house, and in the blink of an eye came to a jungle swamp full of dangers, and the surrounding atmosphere changed drastically.
"What's going on?" Zhou Xiaoxiao frowned, "No way... could it be that?"
Su Ming frowned and felt bad. Although Zhou Xiaoxiao's words sounded calm, Su Ming could taste fear from this calmness.
"Which one?"
"Let's go out and take a look first. I'm not sure either." Zhou Xiaoxiao pushed his glasses and took a deep breath.
But before Su Ming and Zhou Xiaoxiao left the house, the old butler Elton hurriedly ran in from outside and shouted in an old voice: "Master! We...we seem to have entered the ghostland!"
"Ghostland? What is that?"
Elton was trembling all over and couldn't say a word after opening his mouth several times. Su Ming directly asked the system for information about the ghost domain, but did not find any relevant information.
This means that this ghost area may not be included in the system, or it is possible that the name Elton said is not the real name of this strange phenomenon.
It seems that I have no choice but to go out and see for myself.
"System, start detection," Su Ming said in his mind.
[Ding! —Starting to load information]
[Host, please collect more characteristics of the target. 】
Damn it, this is indeed a rubbish system. Su Ming cursed in his heart as he walked out.
He took the lead and walked in front, followed by Elton and Zhou Xiaoxiao, both of whom walked in a hurry.
Su Ming pushed open the door of the house and walked outside. Everything in the manor was shrouded in a layer of lavender light, like some scene in a dream, mysterious and magnificent. Looking up, he could see a huge purple celestial body. Su Ming didn't know what to call this celestial body, perhaps the moon... or maybe something else.
The shape of the Purple Moon is quite strange, like a huge transparent balloon filled with lavender liquid floating in the air. The size of the Purple Moon is three times that of an ordinary moon. Purple smoke keeps flowing in the moon, giving people the feeling of being both far away and close, as if it is extremely low in the sky, but impossible to touch.
The background of the sky is gray, there are no clouds, and nothing can be seen.
"Sure enough, we went in there." Zhou Xiaoxiao said with a trembling voice. He looked at the purple moon in the sky and was completely stunned.
At the same time, the system information in Su Ming's mind was also retrieved.
