Chapter 155 A Kick in the Heart
After receiving the order, a team of guards quickly entered the restaurant with swords in hand. Another team of guards, including Lin Shan, followed Lin Xiaotian, protecting him and did not go in.
Because after Luo Xiaoran missed her first attack, she decisively jumped out of the window on the other side and went to the street behind the restaurant, so they were destined to get nothing.
After a long while, the guards filed out, and the leader clasped his fists and reported: "Master, no suspicious people were found."
The sedan behind him was engulfed by flames bit by bit. Hearing the screams of the burned people, Lin Xiaotian's anger rose step by step. "Keep investigating. I want to see who dared to assassinate me in Kyoto!"
"Yes!" The guard leader did not leave immediately after receiving the order, but continued to ask: "Shall I escort the master back home first?"
"No need! You must catch the assassin for me!"
"Yes!"
Lin Xiaotian waved and called Lin Zhongquan. Lin Zhongquan skillfully bent down and put his ear close to Lin Xiaotian's mouth. After receiving the order, he hurried away with the two people.
The fire on the sedan chair was getting bigger and bigger. The remaining team of guards could only escort Lin Xiaotian on foot to the Lin Mansion, followed by many servants and guards who had already put out the flames on their bodies.
Lin Shan followed Lin Xiaotian and was vigilant everywhere. He was secretly happy in his heart. If he could protect the head of the family's safety, wouldn't it be considered as redeeming himself for his crime? Maybe he could change the head of the family's dislike for him.
Thinking of this, he moved closer to Lin Xiaotian. Lin Xiaotian was so angry that he couldn't vent his anger. Seeing Lin Shan blocking him, he kicked him in the heart, "What are you doing here? Go find the assassin!"
Lin Shan only felt a dull pain in his chest. If he lifted his clothes, he would definitely see bruises and swelling. However, he did not dare to say a word. He could only kneel down, clasp his fists and accept the order, and search for the assassin with the team of guards.
Seeing Lin Shan leaving alone, Luo Xiaoran thought to herself that she was lucky, so she tiptoed and followed Lin Shan secretly.
She couldn't take any action yet. Lin Xiaotian and his group had not gone far yet. If they were alarmed, she would be besieged by dozens of people.
Luo Xiaoran told herself that she must be patient and find the most appropriate time. This time she must take Lin Shan's life!
Not long after, Lin Shan met up with another team of guards. One of the round-faced guards stepped forward first and said with a fake smile:
"Hey, isn't this Lin Shan, the popular man in front of the Patriarch? Why did you come here with your brothers to do this hard work?"
Lin Shan held the sword in one hand and rubbed his chest with the other, his face livid: "Duan Hong, who the hell are you? How dare you challenge me now?"
In the past, Lin Shan relied on his uncle Lin Zhongquan's relationship to bully the servants of the Lin family, so many people disliked him.
Now that he messed up such an important task, everyone would blame him, and Duan Hong was one of them.
"It's hard to say who I am. We are all dogs of the Lin family. It's just that some dogs always think they are superior to other dogs. But when they go to do an important task for their master, they mess it up. Don't you think it's ridiculous?"
As soon as Duan Hong said this, several guards behind him responded one after another. Only a tall and thin guard pulled him aside and said in a low voice:
"Why are you scolding him? His uncle is the most capable person in front of the master of the family. If you offend him, you will suffer the consequences!"
Duan Hong didn't care about that. "What are you afraid of? In the past, the brothers gave in to Lin Shan because they were considering Lin Zhongquan's face.
Now that Lin Shan has made such a big mistake, how many times can Lin Zhongquan save his face in front of the master? I'm afraid that both uncle and nephew will have to keep their tails between their legs in the future. "
