Through Bai Shishi, Lin Tian also roughly understood the current situation.

After Lin Tian and the others were taken to the hospital by Wu Yong, the police immediately arrived at the Bai Family, sealed the scene, and apprehended the suspect.

The truth is, there was only one suspect, Bai Yu.

She had at least shot and killed two people; death was inevitable for her. But dying so easily wouldn’t come so simply.

Meanwhile, the Bai Family massacre went viral online overnight.

Before the case had been solved, the details shouldn’t have been leaked, as it was likely that the murderer would find out early and escape.

So, these messages were quickly deleted from the internet.

But soon, new inside information was leaked again.

In fact, all of these leaks were orchestrated by Bai Shishi and carried out by Hawkeye.

This was done by the Wang Family; if it didn’t become widely known, it would be hard to pressure them and bring those responsible to justice. This was certainly not the result Bai Shishi wanted to see.

Now both Qiansimei and Bai Shishi are at the height of their fame, with countless eyes watching them every day.

And at this crucial time, such a major incident occurred in the Bai Family, drawing public attention nationwide.

Bai Shishi also once said that there were a total of five perpetrators: one who was an insider from the Bai Family, and four others all bearing the surname Wang!

The surname Wang!

Those three characters were the focus of the entire case!

The surname Wang immediately makes many people think of the Wang Group of Wang Daoran.

After all, the Wang Family and the Bai Family have had grudges. Particularly the Wang Family, suffering great losses, had half of their cash cow swallowed by the Bai Family.

The Wang Family hiring killers and having the plan exposed was somewhat expected.

Of course, these are just public speculations.

Only the true decision-makers at the top understand that the real culprit is the Ancient Martial Wang Family!

The Wang Family, whether in politics, the military, or finance, wields significant influence.

Completely uprooting the Wang Family is obviously unrealistic; the resulting turmoil would be too great, and countless opportunists would jump out to seize profit.

However, for such a major offense by the Wang Family, and their slip-up, a great calamity is unavoidable.

This murder case implicates far more than just the Wang Family. Other families like the Xu Family, the Yue Family, and various powers are also involved.

This is a world where the strong prey on the weak; a single setback could affect connections. Those observing might switch allegiances due to this one fall.

Connections are also an extremely important resource!

Therefore, a comprehensive crackdown is the greatest blow to a family.

Sustaining such an assault usually takes years to recover from.

Without severe punishment, how can a deterrent effect be achieved?

"So there’s so much complexity involved," Lin Tian sighed, thinking that even the people of these elite families live exhausting lives, that a single mission’s mishap could impact the entire situation.

"These things are best experienced rather than explained, how do you tell the public?" Lin Tian asked.

"Isn’t it simple? The players randomly throw a few small fish, say they’re the murderers, and they are the murderers. As for Wang Yi, his status in the Wang Family is likely quite high and won’t be easily surrendered."

Lin Tian nodded; after all, that old thing Wang Yi had already advanced as a Martial Artist and was a pillar of the Wang Family, how could he be easily sacrificed?

"There’s something else. After Bai Yu was caught, all the insiders buried in Qiansimei were unearthed. At the same time, she publicly admitted to orchestrating the recent explosion, and even said the explosives were provided by the Wang Family."

This left Lin Tian with a surprised expression, "How could it be? Would Bai Yu really betray the Wang Family? Moreover, this matter had nothing to do with the Wang Family."

This incident was clearly done by Yue Rong and his people, yet the Wang Family took the fall.

This rather delighted Lin Tian; he couldn’t be happier.

Bai Shishi said, "Afterward, I visited Bai Yu, and according to her, even if she dies, she’d drag someone down with her. The Wang Family wanted her as a puppet, so they should pay the appropriate price. She also said she originally wanted to expose the Yue Family and the Li Family, but unfortunately, no one would believe it."

Lin Tian laughed, "Indeed, the most venomous heart can belong to a woman!"

Bai Shishi gave him a sidelong glance.

"Uh..." Lin Tian’s face stiffened, then he embraced Bai Shishi, saying, "I wasn’t talking about you."

"It’s alright," Bai Shishi shook her head, "I’m quite venomous too. For what Bai Yu did to our Bai Family this time, I won’t let her die so easily in prison. Euthanasia is too luxurious for her, I think."

"Then what do you plan to do?"

"Naturally, I’ll arrange for her to be sent to jail, to spend her days with vicious criminals. Until she grows old and frustrated, dying from depression." Bai Shishi spoke with growing excitement, wishing she could see that scene now. "Constantly waiting for death in despair—nothing is more torturous than that, right?"

"I guess she might go insane, or perhaps commit suicide. Both are better than euthanasia, aren’t they?"

Bai Shishi rested her head on Lin Tian’s shoulder, softly asking, "Do you also think I’m quite venomous?"

Lin Tian patted her head, smiled, and said, "Not at all, I think you’re doing just right. She’s a member of the Bai Family and turned against it, leaving your father in such a state. No punishment is too much, we’re not saints. If someone hits us once, we retaliate tenfold. That’s the proper way."

Bai Shishi, with her eyes closed, taking in Lin Tian’s unique scent, truly enjoyed the feeling of being understood.
