Father is a villainous Buddhist disciple? He'll just be beaten into the light of the righteous

"You..." The boy looked at everything in front of him in horror.

Su Qian's expression changed drastically. She abruptly stood up and blocked Cao Jingyang's path, "You...who are you?!"

"Third brother! Fifth brother!" The boy ignored him and turned to look outside.

As he finished speaking, the living room door was pulled open from the outside, and two figures dressed identically walked in.

Both of them stared in shock at the scene in the living room.

"This...this..." one of the boys said in disbelief, "Should we call the police?"

The other boy remained silent.

Hearing them threaten to call the police, Su Qian's expression changed again. "You can't call the police!"

"Why?" The first boy to enter frowned.

Su Qian couldn't explain herself clearly, she just stubbornly said, "Now is not the time to talk, but you can't call the police!"

"Indeed." The last boy to enter, who seemed to be the fifth, said in a deep voice, "We can't call the police."

He looked up and winked at the first boy, "Second brother!"

The boy called "Second Brother" hesitated for a moment, "But..."

"Let's get out of here first."

The second son had no choice but to nod.

The next second, everything went black before Su Qian's eyes. She stared wide-eyed at the boy in disbelief, then her body went limp and she collapsed to the ground.

When she woke up again, she was no longer at Cao Jingyang's house, but in a tent.

tent?!

Su Qian sat up in surprise. She scrambled out of the tent and discovered that she was in a wide-open lawn with a cliff not far away.

It was completely dark, but the full moon hung high in the sky, its cool, thin light casting a soft, beautiful veil over the grass.

In an open space not far away, several teenagers were talking around a bonfire.

Su Qian gritted her teeth and walked over decisively.

Hearing the sound, everyone looked up at her. Su Qian's heart tightened. It would be a lie to say she wasn't afraid, but she didn't have time to be afraid now.

She gritted her teeth and asked, "Who are you?"

Did you call the police?

"Where is Cao Jingyang?!"

Several more people dressed similarly appeared by the fire. Su Qian couldn't tell which ones were the people she had seen before, so she could only squint and carefully observe them.

But even after trying for a long time, she still couldn't recognize him.

"Alright, stop looking." A familiar voice rang out, and Su Qian's gaze fell on him. It was the person who had been called the second brother before.

However, she couldn't be sure, because the person's voice had changed again. If it weren't for her extraordinary ability to recognize voices, most people wouldn't have been able to tell the difference.

"Cao Jingyang is fine." The young man took a loaf of bread out of his bag and tossed it to her. "Fourth Brother has already arranged the scene."

"Set up the scene?" Su Qian asked, puzzled.

The boy didn't answer his question, but instead asked, "You're a student in Class 1 of Qingfeng Middle School, right? Why are you at Cao Jingyang's house?"

Su Qian pursed her lips and remained silent.

The boy stared at her for a few seconds, then looked away. "Come sit down?"

After a moment of silence, Su Qian walked over to the group and sat down cross-legged in an empty seat.

The boy handed her another bottle of water.

After hesitating for a moment, Su Qian took it and said thank you.

The boy shook his head.

"Are you... the second son?" Su Qian suddenly asked.

The boy was surprised for a moment. "You could tell?"

Su Qian nodded. "I'm very sensitive to timbre."

"Have you practiced before?"

"Yes, my mom is a music teacher."

The boy said "Oh," and added, "You're the first person to notice when I changed my voice."

Su Qian ignored his question and instead asked, "Who exactly are you? Why are you at Cao Jingyang's house?"

Where is he now?

The boy looked at him and said, "Have you... heard of KING?"

Su Qian was stunned, her eyes widening suddenly. "You're KING?! The KING who punishes evil and seeks justice for all victims?"

Another boy chuckled, "So we're that famous?"

Su Qian's gaze swept across everyone's faces, but she couldn't see anything; all she could see were comical masks.

The second-in-command chuckled and said, "Yeah, it's that King."

Su Qian frowned. "Why should I believe you?"

"I didn't ask you to believe me," the second brother shrugged. "I was just answering your question. Believe it or not, it's up to you."

Su Qian: "..."

She hesitated, then asked, "So, you came to Cao Jingyang's house to seek justice for him?"

"You want to punish those beasts?"

"I guess so..."

"Is that so?"

The second brother smiled and said, "We came here to investigate heroin. His father, Cao Qiu, is a long-term buyer, so we also know about his family situation."

"Cao Qiu is a beast, but Cao Jingyang..."

He didn't finish his sentence. After a pause, he continued, "We came here today hoping to get him to join us, but we didn't expect to encounter something like this."

"However, our third and fourth sons are experts in this area. They have already set up the scene, so the investigation will not trace back to Cao Jingyang."

"The surveillance videos of you and Cao Jingyang going to your house have also been disposed of by Lao Wu."

"None of you have gone home today."

"Everything..." His voice deepened, "was... because his mother fought back desperately against the humiliation, and then the accident happened."

Su Qian was startled. "You guys really underestimate the police!"

The people in front of her all looked to be around the same age as her, no, they might even be younger than her.

No matter how skilled someone is, how could they possibly arrange the venue perfectly?

If the police find out there's something wrong, then Cao Jingyang...

"Don't worry." The boy opposite added a few more pieces of firewood to the fire. "There's no big problem. The director of the Qingfeng County Public Security Bureau is about to retire. That old guy is afraid of taking responsibility. At this critical moment, he won't let things get out of hand."

"Moreover, Cao Qiu and those two beasts who died were never good people to begin with."

"Now that he died in an 'accident,' how could he possibly allow people to investigate thoroughly and make a big fuss about it?"

"Does he still want to retire?"

"He will just suppress this matter and label it an 'accident'."

Su Qian was somewhat surprised. Could these people really be KING?

Otherwise, how could he possibly know so much about the affairs of the county public security bureau?

The second brother glanced at her, raised an eyebrow, and said, "It's getting late, shall I take you home?"

Su Qian neither said it was good nor bad.

After a moment of silence, she asked, "Are you really King?"

The second brother chuckled. "Of course, it's the real deal."

Su Qian suddenly looked up and asked, "Then... can I join you?"
