Chapter 593: Monsters and Demons Arrive

Xu Xiaotian returned home in a state of despair. Butler Pang came up to him and asked, "Young Master, is there any progress in the case of the Master and the Madam? What conclusion has the police reached?"

After the death of Xu Gang and his wife, the two patrolmen withdrew to the police station the next day. The Xu family villa now has no defense capabilities at all. However, this area is where high-ranking officials live, and usually no one is so ignorant as to cause trouble, so it is still considered safe.

Now, apart from Xu Xiaotian, there are only Butler Pang and three servants left in the villa.

Xu Xiaotian shook his head and said, "The police said they dissected my parents' bodies and found no obvious injuries, nor was it poisoning. They can confirm that it was suicide. However, because my parents' emotions and behavior have been normal recently, they also suspect that they may have been threatened or forced. But there are no clues to investigate such matters, so this matter can only end here. If we find any new clues, we can provide them to the police and then file a case for further investigation."

Butler Pang sighed after hearing this. "Oh, I don't know what happened that left Master and Madam so late that they couldn't even tell me... That night at dinner, Master and Madam were fine, nothing unusual. What on earth could have happened?"

At this moment, Xu Xiaotian didn't have the mind to think about how he ended up sleeping with the Wang family's dinosaur that night, but he remembered that before he fell unconscious that evening, he was fighting with Liu Huilan in the car. Later, Liu Huilan's husband caught up with him and beat him up, and he knew nothing. When he woke up again, he was lying next to the Wang family's dinosaur.

"Humph, this matter isn't over yet. I'll settle the score with you after I find out the truth about my parents' death!"

Butler Pang was stunned and asked, "Master, what's the matter? Did you get into trouble outside again?"

Xu Xiaotian waved his hands quickly. "It's just a small matter. The most urgent thing now is to find out why my parents committed suicide. Butler Pang, you guys think about it again. Was there really nothing unusual on the night my parents committed suicide?"

Butler Pang thought hard, then froze for a moment. He then shook his head and said, "There really wasn't anything unusual. Master and Madam were just like any other that night. If there was any difference, it was that we were all feeling particularly sleepy. After Master and Madam went upstairs, we all fell asleep one after another, much earlier than usual!"

"Is it the same with them? If only one or two people were sleepier than usual that night, it would be understandable. But if all of you were sleepier than usual, then there is a problem. Did someone put drugs in your food?" Xu Xiaotian felt that he had discovered something?

"Drug? No way. Old Liu made dinner and he ate it himself. Besides, if someone wanted to kill someone, why not just poison the food? If we all ate it, wouldn't everyone be poisoned to death?" Butler Pang shook his head.

Xu Xiaotian always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't figure out what the problem was. If someone had put drugs in the food, then how did this incident relate to his parents' suicide by hanging?

Butler Pang asked, "Young Master, have the police said when we can bring back the bodies of Master and Madam? They're already dead, and the police have already done the autopsy. We can't just keep them there forever, right?"

"I told you that you can get them back today. I'll go find some coolies to carry my parents' bodies back this afternoon. You go out and buy funeral supplies and invite some Taoist priests and monks to perform the rituals."

"Okay, I'll do it now!"

In the afternoon, when Xu Xiaotian and some coolies brought back the bodies of Xu Gang and his wife in two horse-drawn carriages, the entire Xu Mansion was already hung with white banners. After the bodies were carried into the mourning hall, changed into shrouds and placed in coffins, the Taoist priests and monks immediately began to perform rituals.

On the first day, Xu Gang's former colleagues in the police station, his friends in government, and members of the underworld Pao Ge gang came to pay their respects, but the situation changed on the second day. Some gang members came to pay their respects on the surface, but actually made mockery after arriving, and some even openly made a scene in the mourning hall.

"Mr. Xu, today we are here first to burn incense for your parents, and secondly, to collect a debt. You owe us a total of $10,000 in gambling debts. The repayment deadline has come. When can you pay it back?"

Xu Xiaotian quickly said, "Boss Chen, can you give me a few more days? You see, we're having a funeral today. Once I finish my parents' funeral, I'll definitely return the money to you!"

Casino owner Chen immediately shook his head and said, "Master Xu, I'd like to give you a few days, but I can't wait. I'm afraid you'll spend all your money on the funeral. How will you have money left to pay me back after the funeral?"

"This gambling debt must be paid today, otherwise my brothers behind me will not agree, and Director Xu and his wife's funeral will be a mess!"

The dozen or so brothers behind Boss Chen immediately said in unison: "Killing someone means paying with your life, and debts must be paid back. It's only right. Pay up!"

"Pay back the money!"

"Pay back the money!"

Butler Pang hurried over and said to Boss Chen, "Hey, Boss Chen, what are you doing? Our master was very caring towards you, Boss Chen, right? Now that our master and his wife have just passed away, you've turned your back on us. Is that how you behave?"

Boss Chen snorted coldly and said, "Huh, taking care of me? Take care of me? What a joke! Just ask Xu Gang, who's lying in his coffin, how much commission he takes from my gambling house every day. To be frank, that money is my care fee. I paid him. I don't owe them anything. Instead, it's Young Master Xu who owes me a gambling debt!"

"Either pay me back, or don't hold the funeral today!"

"You..." Butler Pang's face turned ashen with anger.

"Lao Pang, stop talking and give him the money!" Xu Xiaotian said gritting his teeth.

Butler Pang had no choice but to agree: "Okay! Boss Chen, you guys wait a moment here. It's a total of 60,000 yuan, right? I'll go get the money now!"

Soon, Butler Pang returned the 60,000 yuan to Boss Chen and burned the gambling debt IOU in public.

But as soon as Boss Chen and his men left, another large group of businessmen arrived, each of them bringing their thugs with them.

Everyone pretended to light a stick of incense for the deceased and bowed to pay their respects. Then, a businessman named Boss Zhang walked up to Xu Xiaotian and said, "Master Xu, your father borrowed a Ming Dynasty calligraphy piece by Zhu Zhishan and two large blue and white dragon-patterned plates from the Kangxi era from me. He said he wanted to borrow them for fun, but he never returned them to me!"

"Now that your father is gone, shouldn't you return the things you borrowed from me?"
