After the divorce, my second-married military officer husband doted on me

Chapter 419: One Link After Another

While Jiang Nuan was distributing the antidote to everyone, Huo Qiming had people guarding the gate and not allowing anyone to enter or leave.

"I apologize to everyone. This happened suddenly, and the murderer might still be present. I'm sorry for the inconvenience caused to everyone today. The Huo family will compensate you later. In order to prevent the murderer from going unpunished, I beg you to cooperate with us in investigating the real culprit."

"Who is the murderer? Stand up for me!

This damn beast is so vicious, we must find him and shoot him!" A hot-tempered boss among the guests roared angrily.

"Whoever did it, you gotta stand up and take the responsibility. So many lives were lost, and you poisoned them without blinking an eye. Aren't you afraid of being struck by lightning?" Another guest, after taking the antidote and feeling less pain, was so angry that he almost overturned the table.

Anne pretended to be scared and approached Rosen, her face filled with horror. "Rosen, this is horrible! Someone actually poisoned the food. This is so vicious. Can we go home? I'm scared!"

She took the opportunity to hold Rosen's hand.

Rosen impatiently brushed her hand away and said, "Sit down, haven't you seen so many people have been poisoned?

The situation is so chaotic now, so don't make it worse.

I'll go help, you stay here quietly, and we can't leave until the Huo family finds the murderer."

Annie was pushed away again, and her lungs almost exploded with anger. However, thinking of what was going to happen next, she suppressed her anger and watched coldly as Rosen took the initiative to help the Huo family find the murderer.

Ah……!

Anne sneered silently.

Stop dreaming, you won't be able to catch the murderer.

All the guests were forbidden to leave. The birthday party was turned into a panic. The guests sat uneasily, anxiously waiting to find the murderer.

Mr. Huo looked guilty, "Hey, it's all my fault. What kind of birthday is this? I've put everyone in danger."

Ning Quanzhou comforted him, "My dear, don't take the responsibility on yourself. This is not your fault.

Don't worry, with Jiantao and the others here, nothing will happen."

The guests present actively cooperated with the investigation, except for the woman following behind Anne, who was distracted and her eyes were evasive.

As Jiang Nuan was interrogating people and getting closer to the woman, she was thinking about how to escape.

At this moment, a deafening explosion suddenly sounded outside.

Rumble, rumble...

The deafening explosion was like a bolt from the blue, the sound was like thunder, shaking the ground beneath my feet...

"Ahhh, what's going on?"

"Why is there an explosion?" As soon as the explosion sounded, the scene became chaotic, and screams and cries of fear rang out one after another.

"Ah... Run! There's danger!" The guests were so scared that they fled in all directions and rushed to the door.

The woman in question also took the opportunity to escape, but unfortunately she was forced back by the army before she could even leave the hall.

Huo Jiantao's adjutant: "Stop! There's an explosion outside, the situation is critical, you can't leave!"

Today is the old man's birthday, and the people who came are either rich or noble. Huo Jiantao had already arranged his subordinates outside to protect everyone's safety.

bang bang bang...

The explosions rang out one after another, as terrifying as a death warrant.

In just a moment, everyone saw through the window that there was flames rising into the sky outside, a huge mushroom cloud rising into the sky, and the flames dyed half the sky red.

Huo Jiantao was furious. His face, which had just turned pale from the poisoning, was now as dark as ink. The rage in his eyes was like the magma erupting from a volcano. "Qiming, you stay here and take charge of the situation. I'll go out and take a look at the situation."

Huo Qiming nodded with a cold face.

Anger was boiling in his chest, and his knuckles were clenched so tightly that they made crackling sounds.

"Everyone, please return to your positions. Once the murderer is found and the cause of the explosion outside is determined, we will allow you to leave safely."

Today might be Grandpa’s last birthday party. The Huo family has prepared for it for so long, just wanting to give Grandpa an unforgettable and sad memory.

I didn't expect such an accident to happen.

A female guest who was afraid of death threw a tantrum, “No, I want to go home.

What a bad luck today, it’s horrible!

If I had known so much was going to happen I wouldn't have come.

First there was poisoning, and now there is an explosion. No one knows what will happen next.

In order to survive, I want to leave. I don’t want to leave this place of trouble.

I didn't poison him, so why are you detaining him?"

"Yes, we have to leave. We don't want to wait to die here!"

"Yes, let us go! We weren't the ones who poisoned them, so why are you holding them all captive?"

"Let us go...!" Everyone was talking at once, clamoring to leave.

Seeing the situation was getting out of control, Zhou Xiaowei had no choice but to fire a shot into the air. "Bang!" "Everyone, calm down!"

As soon as the gunshot rang out, the surroundings fell silent.

Seeing that everyone was calmed down, Zhou Xiaowei lowered his voice, "Everyone, please calm down!"

"I would like to apologize to everyone again for the accident that happened today!"

"Our Huo family didn't mean to detain you. This happened suddenly. For everyone's safety, please stay calm and don't cause any disturbances. We don't know why the explosion happened outside, but please don't panic. Our Huo family will protect everyone's safety."

"Once the matter is resolved, we will send everyone away safely."

After the explosion, Jiang Nuan did not continue to investigate the murderer, but went out with Huo Jiantao to check the situation.

Zhou Xiaowei gave the two children to Ning Cailian and Lu Ting, and he and Huo Qiming tracked down the murderer.

Jiang Nuan left the old man in the banquet hall to help them investigate the murderer.

The woman became more nervous and uneasy when she saw that her attempt to escape in the chaos had failed.

Soon, the old man appeared in front of her and said, "You, come here!" The old man stared at the woman with his cloudy and shrewd eyes.

"What...what are you doing?" The woman pretended to be calm. "What do you want me to do?"

The old man sneered, his eyes instantly cold, and he used his soul-stealing technique to control her. "Tell me, are you involved in the poison at tonight's banquet?"

He observed all the guests and found that this woman was the most suspicious. Her eyes were flickering and uneasy, which was different from the other guests who were worried about their own safety. If she had done nothing wrong, why was she so anxious to leave?

When Annie saw the woman being stopped by the old man, she thought to herself that something was wrong.

The woman was controlled by the old man and was looking among the crowd. When her eyes fell on Anne, Anne's heart tightened instantly.

Damn it, she's not really going to confess!

Anne hurriedly pretended to squat down to adjust her shoes, avoiding the woman's sight.

The old man followed the woman's gaze and saw several guests over there. Before he could determine which one the woman was looking at, there was a sudden bang from a silenced gunshot. The woman suddenly fell to the ground with her eyes wide open in fear...

"Ahhhh, murder!"

"Murder!" The scene became even more chaotic, and neither Zhou Xiaowei nor Huo Qiming could control the situation.

The guests screamed and ran around, pushing each other. The plates on the dining table were knocked over and fell to the ground with a thud. In a moment, the place was in a mess.

"Damn it! Who shot him?" Seeing that the murderer was about to confess but was killed, the old man was so angry that his beard stood up.

He grabbed the woman who had fallen to the ground and quickly stuffed a number of life-saving pills into her mouth. "Don't die yet. Tell me who the murderer is."

"Tell me who the murderer is?"

The old man had a hunch that tonight's poisoning, explosion, and sniper shooting were all planned by the same person.

Such a vicious scheme, one thing after another.

If one plan fails, he will come up with another. He will not stop until someone dies!

The woman's eyes widened, she breathed in more than out, and moved her mouth with difficulty, "Yes... yes... yes... big...!"

"What's big? Tell me quickly!" The old man was very anxious.

The woman wanted to tell the murderer, but blood kept oozing out of her mouth. Her throat was blocked by blood and she couldn't breathe smoothly. "Cough cough...!"

Her pupils dilated and the blood in her mouth kept flowing...

"Tell me quickly, who is it?" The old man lifted the woman's head so that she could swallow the blood in her mouth.
