Chapter 13: Shock
The next day, a group of green brand catchers gathered in the courtyard.
Since the establishment of the pursuit team, it is a rule to meet once a day in the morning and evening to summarize clues and discuss the case.
Jiang Wang can sometimes participate, sometimes he can't, often depending on the importance of the case.
When he came out today, he deliberately observed it, and Ma Xiong's expression was a little unnatural.
Obviously, Yue Leng's methods are quite frightening, and even Ma Xiong, a four-grade green brand catcher who has been dealing with punishment all year round, is difficult to adapt to.
But Lin Youxie's face was as usual. I don't know if it's because her will is unusually strong, or if it's already commonplace.
King Tarzan is still in the living room, and the screams have stopped at dawn, and I don't know if I am dead or alive,
After the people were almost there, Yue Leng carefully wiped his hands with a handkerchief and walked out slowly.
This action inevitably makes people think of it, and I don't know what kind of torture Yue Leng used these hands to perform.
Ma Xiong looked around, frowned, and said, "What about Liu Jieren? Why hasn't he come yet? Are there any rules? Do you want Lord Yue to wait for him?"
Liu Jie is one of the ten Neifu Jingqing brand catchers.
Ma Xiong is not bad, and he is a relatively protective colleague. He reprimanded first, precisely to protect Liu Jie and not wait for Yue Leng to lose his temper.
"I didn't see anyone when I passed by his room. A green card catcher said with some hesitation.
This mission to pursue and suppress the Gateless Hell has received attention from Emperor Qi. It's a good opportunity for promotion, but it's also very strict,
Everyone in the pursuit team except Jiang Wang must be strictly controlled. If anyone dares to neglect their duties during the handling of the case, it is simply not taking their own future seriously.
Everyone present was a senior green card catcher, and they realized that something was wrong at the first time.
"When was the last time you saw Liu Jie?" asked Yue Leng.
"It must have been yesterday. It was still the green brand catcher who said loudly: "Yesterday, when you interrogated King Taishan, we went back to our rooms, and he lived next door to me." ”
Yue Leng asked again, "Are you sure he didn't go out?"
"I can only be sure that he did go back to his room yesterday. But after that, I don't know, where I went. ”
The green card catcher is very strict in his wording.
They are all cultivators in the inner mansion realm, and they are colleagues, and generally no one will stare at anyone all day long. If Liu Jie secretly went out, it was indeed difficult for him to find out.
Ma Xiong directly asserted: "Liu Jie must have had an accident." ”
Yue Leng frowned and did not speak.
Liu Jie is also an experienced green card, how could he leave the station silently at such a time? Did he find any clues? If something happened to him, where would he have an accident?
Everyone was discussing, analyzing various possibilities.
Suddenly, someone from the county government of Bay County came in to report.
"The body of Liu Jie, the head catcher of the Wupinqing brand, was found by the Tanzhu River, and the county government has blocked the surrounding area, do you want to go to investigate?"
Liu Jie's body is by the Tanzhu River!
The pursuit team has been chasing hell in Bay County for a while, and they are no strangers to the Pearl River.
It is a small river, a tributary of the Zi River, and it is said that in the early years this river was rich in pearls, and many people made a fortune by picking pearls. Many years have passed, and the pearl is long gone, but the name of the Pearl River has been retained.
In terms of distance, it is not too far from their current position, and at normal speed, half a pillar of incense can catch up and go back and forth in time.
It is a wise choice for the Bey County Government to choose to cordon off the perimeter to protect the environment at the scene, and wait for the pursuit team to investigate. Because when it comes to investigating clues, there is no one in Bay County who can compare to them.
But in any case, Liu Jie's death, after all, cast a shadow on the pursuit operation.
"Did Liu Zhutou die by the Tanzhu River, or did his body appear in the Tanzhu River after his death?" Yue Leng's question was straight to the point.
"This ......" the person sent by the Bei County Government hesitated: "Why don't you send someone here to take a look?"
"What's the matter? You guys can't even be sure of this kind of thing, otherwise the brand will be taken off!" Ma Xiong's tone was not good.
Although it is impossible to compare the green card catcher from Bei County with the green card catcher from Beiya, it is not impossible to make this level of judgment, but this person does not dare to confirm it, for fear of taking responsibility.
Ma Xiong was forced like this, and he couldn't shirk anymore, so he had to say: "I died by the Tanzhu River." ”
"Liu Jie, I know very well that he is not a person who neglects his duties. The reason why I went to explore the Pearl River must have found some clues. Ma Xiong took the initiative to ask: "Lord Yue, I'll take someone to take a look." ”
Yue Leng shook his head: "No." You're all here, and I'll take a look for myself. ”
How Liu Jie died by the Tanzhu River is still unclear. But it cannot be ruled out that it is a means for hell to divert the tiger from the mountain, after all, the king of Taishan, who is ranked seventh in the Ten Halls of Yama, is now in the hands of the pursuit team.
At the same time, the possible clues on the other side of the Tanzhu River cannot be ignored, a green brand catcher threw his life there, and it is impossible for the god catcher Yue Leng to ignore it.
And if Liu Jie's death is really related to the lack of hell, it will be very dangerous for Ma Xiong to lead the team.
Yue Leng went to Tanzhu River alone to investigate clues, and the four outer building-level green brand catchers were stationed at the station, which was undoubtedly the safest choice.
Even if it is really a means of hell to divert the tiger from the mountain, there are four outbuilding-level green card catchers, and they are not worried that the station will be easily breached. Moreover, Yue Leng himself can return to help at any time, and even the Bei County Government will not be stingy with support once he senses the movement.
It is almost impossible for Hell to save King Taishan.
Don't forget, there is also a Yan family in Bay County. Former Prime Minister Yan Ping was recuperating in the clan land, if it alarmed him......
In short, the pursuit team is completely in the ascendancy, and there is nothing to worry too much about.
Yue Leng did things vigorously and resolutely, and left immediately when he said he would, without dragging his feet.
And Ma Xiong also showed enough senior green brand literacy, and after arranging everyone's tasks on the spot, he personally moved a chair and sat in front of the living room door.
Other catchers also quickly dispersed, patrols of patrols, garrisons of garrisons, well-trained.
But from beginning to end, no one thought to go in and take a look at King Taishan.
Jiang Wang thought about it for a while, quickly made a decision, and walked directly in front of Ma Xiong while the others were gone, and said to him: "Ma Zhutou, I plan to leave today." ”
Ma Xiong knew about Zheng Shi's deal with Chong Xuansheng, so he was not surprised, but just glanced at Jiang Wang: "Now?"
"I'm short on time and can't stay any longer. Jiang Wang replied.
The real reason is certainly not so.
King Taishan was arrested, Liu Jie died, and the pursuit team's pursuit of Hell without a gate instantly entered a fierce moment. There is a mountain rain about to come, and the wind is full of buildings.
Jiang Wang didn't want to get involved in this big trouble, so he decided to get out early.
Of course, it is more or less related to Lin Youxie's eyes that seem to be able to penetrate people's hearts. He didn't want to reveal any secrets.
Ma Xiong thought about it, but he was not embarrassed, and only said, "When Lord Yue comes back, you can leave." ”
"Good. Jiang Wang didn't bargain, and directly turned around and went back to the room to pack his things. Half a pillar of incense or less, he can still afford to wait.
But just as he stepped out of the yard, a mutation protruded!
Ma Xiong was originally sitting on a chair, and the morning sun was clear, casting a shadow under him.
At this moment, in the midst of this shadow, a pale hand suddenly reached out!
Cold, cold, silent.
