C1166 Thief
Someone knocked on the door.
"Come in." Qin Ming said plainly.
Elder Sen and Elder Mu pushed open the door and walked in.
"Why are you here?" Qin Ming asked curiously, "Where's Patriarch of Wang Family? Why did he let you guys in?"
Elder Sen had a smile on his face as he took a step forward. "I am an elder of the Sen Family. I am here to track down the whereabouts of the Perfect Pills of the Sen Family."
"The Sen Family has lost a large amount of Perfect Pills. How could Patriarch of Wang Family dare to stop such an important matter?"
"I am an elder of the Mu Family. I am in charge of investigating the loss of the Perfect Pills. You better tell me honestly..." Old Zhang's fierce eyes stared at Qin Ming.
"Hmph... What does losing the pill have to do with me?" Qin Ming said as he backed away.
Old Zhang said angrily, "Why is it none of your business? That thief didn't run away, but ran here alone. He must be under Qin Ming's protection."
"Furthermore, that thief is you, Qin Ming!"
"It's not me. How could I steal the Perfect Pills? I sold all your pill to you. How could I steal it?!" Qin Ming retorted loudly.
"There's no need to speak so loudly." Old Zhang purposely raised his voice, "It's useless no matter how loud you speak. Our Mu Family and Sen Family can't find the lost pill. We won't let this matter rest!"
"Don't even think about Patriarch of Wang Family saving you. Our Mu Family and Sen Family have already joined forces. What does the Wang Family count as?"
"If he is honest, he will turn a blind eye. We'll still treat him as one of the major families in Forest City. If he isn't honest, we'll make sure he doesn't see tomorrow's sun!"
"Don't forget, the Forest City is called Forest City and Wood City. It's the city of Sen Family and Mu Family, not the Wang Family!"
Qin Ming's expression turned ugly when he heard this.
Elder Sen was secretly delighted when he saw Qin Ming's expression. He said something nice to Qin Ming, "That thief has entered your manor. We can only come and find you."
"We need to find the whereabouts of the Perfect Pills now. Otherwise, the patriarch will definitely punish us severely."
"There's nothing we can do!"
"I guarantee that as long as you hand over the stolen pill, we won't make things difficult for you."
"After all, you have made a lot of contributions to Forest City in the past two years. As long as you hand over the stolen pill, we will let bygones be bygones and continue to be friends!"
Qin Ming repeated, "I did not steal the pill!"
Hearing Qin Ming's words, old Zhang was furious.
"If you didn't steal it, then who stole it?"
His aged face was filled with anger. The Spiritual Energy in his hand was surging, and he looked like he was going to devour someone.
"Hey, old Zhang, calm down." Elder Sen saw that Old Zhang was agitated, so he quickly pulled him back and said to Qin Ming, "Qin Ming, now it's not about whether you stole the pill or not."
"It's because you have to take out the Perfect Pills. If you don't take it out, the patriarch will blame us."
"Especially him. He is in charge of guarding the warehouse. The pill was lost in his hands. If we can't find the pill, he might be executed."
"Therefore, I don't know what he will do in his excitement."
"Qin Ming, if you don't let me live, I will die with you." Old Zhang's face was ferocious, "I am already old enough, and I have lived enough. If I can't find the lost pill, I won't be able to face anyone, so I might as well die."
"I... I... really didn't steal the pill." Seeing Old Zhang's fierce look, Qin Ming seemed to be scared out of his wits. He kept retreating until he reached the corner of the wall. There was nowhere to retreat to.
