Chapter 366 Confusion



Chapter 366 Confusion

No one dared to imagine that Yi Zhonghai, who seemed kind and enthusiastic on weekdays, would actually do such a vicious thing.

They all shook their heads and sighed, lamenting the complexity and variability of human nature.

"How could it be him? We have been with him for so many years, and he has always been such a warm-hearted and helpful person."

An old man spoke while shaking his head, his eyes filled with disbelief and disappointment.

They have been neighbors for more than ten years. Although they cannot say that they know Yi Zhonghai by heart, they are at least 70% familiar with him.

It is really hard for them to accept what is happening now.

"You can't judge a person by his appearance! Who knows if his usual kind appearance is just an act?"

An aunt who had a very good relationship with the Yan family couldn't help but interrupt.

She had witnessed the tragic fate of the Yan couple in the past two days, and naturally hated Yi Zhonghai, the culprit, to the core.

She spat fiercely, expressing her anger and contempt for Yi Zhonghai.

"I don't doubt Li Youquan's ability or integrity, but this incident does make me feel puzzled and confused."

One of the young men scratched his head unconsciously, his eyes revealing some hesitation and indecision. He looked around, as if seeking some kind of resonance.

His words were like a stone dropped into a calm lake, instantly creating ripples. At that moment, everyone's attention was simultaneously focused on him, as if being pulled by an invisible force.

Faced with this sudden attention, the young man seemed a little at a loss. His eyes, which were already a little flustered, were now burning red due to the burning gazes around him.

He opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but was speechless due to nervousness.

Director Wang and Li Huifen, who were not far away, naturally could not escape this "audio-visual feast".

They could clearly hear the young man's question, which made them both slightly stunned. Then they turned their eyes to the source of the voice at the same time.

In sharp contrast, Li Youquan still maintains his indifference and composure, as if all the noise around him has nothing to do with him. His detached temperament makes people admire him.

The young man himself did not expect that just a careless remark would attract so much attention.

He felt surprised and a little embarrassed, and for a moment he didn't know what to do.

"Young man, don't be nervous, just speak your mind boldly."

Just when the young man felt at a loss, Director Wang's gentle and encouraging voice sounded at the right time.

There was a warm smile on her kind face at this moment. That smile seemed to have magical power, instantly dispelling the gloom and uneasiness in the young man's heart.

Encouraged by Director Wang, the young man gradually calmed down.

He mustered up his courage again and looked at Li Youquan who was standing there. When the other party nodded, he seemed to draw some strength from him.

Then, he took a deep breath and finally expressed all the doubts in his mind.

"I just find it strange. If it was really Mr. Yi who set the fire, then why did his family suffer more serious losses than the other family? Wouldn't this behavior be more likely to arouse suspicion from others? Or did he do this for some specific purpose, such as... to cover up something?"

As soon as the young man finished speaking, the entire space fell into silence again.

Everyone's thoughts were drawn by his unique insights and they all fell into deep thought.

They had to admit that the young man's observation and analytical abilities were indeed extraordinary, and the questions he raised were exactly the key points that they had previously overlooked.

After hearing these words, Yi Zhonghai seemed to have his fighting spirit rekindled. There was a determined light flashing in his eyes, as if he had found the key to solving the mystery.

Li Huifen, who was standing a little further away from them, was also suddenly stunned.

There was a hint of doubt in her eyes, then she reached out and gently pulled Li Youquan beside her, with a hint of urgency in her voice.

"Is the thing you said before true or false? Was it really done by Yi Zhonghai? But what the young man said just now also sounds reasonable."

Although Li Huifen had an almost blind trust in her nephew, at this moment, the balance in her heart couldn't help but tilt slightly, and she couldn't help but ask Li Youquan for confirmation.

Her inquiry was not out of suspicion of Li Youquan, but out of an irrepressible curiosity and a desire for the truth.

Hearing this, Li Youquan tilted his head slightly and looked at Li Huifen with a deep gaze.

Then he nodded almost imperceptibly, as if silently confirming Li Huifen's guess.

"There are indeed other strange things hidden in this matter."

A faint smile appeared on the corner of Li Youquan's mouth, and that smile seemed to contain endless meaning, as if he had already seen through the real purpose behind Yi Zhonghai's seemingly simple behavior.

Just this one sentence made Li Huifen feel at ease instantly, and she stood there relaxedly, ready to watch the show.

However, Li Youquan did not reveal the answer immediately, but chose to remain silent.

He knew that when everyone turned their attention to him again, he would have enough chips to deal with everything.

Due to the complexity and incomprehensibility of the matter, everyone's attention once again turned to Li Youquan.

From the very beginning, he was the one who dominated the discussion, and his every word and every move touched the hearts of everyone present.

Faced with such gaze, Li Youquan did not show any discomfort. Instead, he smiled and nodded in a calm manner.

He seemed to be ready to face any challenges that might come next.

At this moment, Li Youquan took the initiative to step forward, with a determined look in his eyes.

And out of the corner of his eye, he noticed that Yi Zhonghai's expression not far away seemed to change slightly. This subtle change made him feel a little happier.

"In fact, everyone's suspicion just now is not unreasonable."

Li Youquan's voice was clear and powerful, and his words were like a sharp sword, pointing directly to the core of the problem.

He would not give Yi Zhonghai any chance to escape, so he naturally had to explain everything clearly.

"But, have you overlooked an important detail?"

Having said this, Li Youquan deliberately paused. He looked around and found that everyone's faces were still full of confusion.

He looked at Yi Zhonghai, who was standing there without saying a word, as if he had already accepted his fate.
