After I Became a Divine Monarch, the Sect Wants Me to Marry In Chapter 61 - 61 61 You killed the person we have already obt
61: Chapter 61: You killed the person, we have already obtained the evidence 61: Chapter 61: You killed the person, we have already obtained the evidence Zheng Xiu left the attic.
Her eyes narrowed slightly.
“Senior Sister Chen Xi has finally died.
With so many enemies, I wonder which one killed you?”
In the woods, a smile appeared on Zheng Xiu’s face: “You were about to reach Foundation Establishnt.
I thought without causing you trouble, you could step down.
I didn’t want to create too much hassle.
After all the things I did before, you were still alive.
Unexpectedly, you still ended up dead.
It’s just that I don’t know how big my contribution was.
But don’t worry, I won’t seek revenge for you.
After all, those capable of killing you are usually not weak.
They could surely kill as well.
I’d rather not take the risk.
You wouldn’t want to die, right?
Hmm.
I should first think of a way to kill Gu An.
Of course, I won’t go myself.
I’ll send two more people, and if they also die,
it ans that person is not easy to provoke, and I’ll just have to change the suspect.
You always pick the softest persimmon to squeeze.
If successful, it confirms the murderer; if failed, it indicates soone else.
Anyway, I won’t touch them.”
In the woods, joy shone in Zheng Xiu’s eyes.
From now on, she would also have a place in the northern district.
After so many years of waiting, her hardships had finally paid off.
As for now, naturally, it was ti to integrate the current forces.
And also to await the investigation results from Luo Sheng Hall.
Even without Gu An, she would have implicated him.
It was not appropriate for her to not do so.
And it indeed made sense to involve him.
…
These past few days, Gu An had been logging in the logging area.
Seeing the people around him being called in for questioning, he was nervous, but dared not show it.
Seven days later.
Approaching mid-April.
Gu An, who was logging, was stopped by a fellow disciple.
“Gu An?” The newcor looked to be in his early twenties.
With a cultivation level at the Qi Refining Seventh Layer.
He had an extraordinary deanor, unlike the disciples from the Qingyang Wood Area who were logging.
Gu An looked at him with curiosity: “Senior Brother, are you looking for ?”
“The brother from the Law Enforcent Hall has so questions for you.
Please co out for a bit,” the newcor said politely.
The questioning wasn’t at the Law Enforcent Hall, but at the logging area’s managent office.
There were rooms here.
They could close the door to talk.
Finally, it was his turn, Gu An felt sowhat nervous.
But he only showed a hint of it, just the right amount.
After all, it wasn’t easy to hide.
Besides, it’s common for people to be nervous when questioned by the Law Enforcent Hall.
Arriving at the room, the young man pointed to the innermost room and said, “Senior Brother, just go inside.”
Gu An nodded and thanked him, then walked towards the innermost room.
Upon entering, he found two people sitting inside, a man and a woman.
Both very young.
But the man had a strange pattern on his face, with so thunderous brilliance in the darkness.
It was because the room was a bit dark.
With no windows, it felt very oppressive.
There was another chair opposite them.
“Junior Brother Gu?” The man with the pattern on his face spoke.
His tone was stable, without any aggression or interrogatory feel.
“I’ve seen Senior Brother and Senior Sister,” Gu An greeted respectfully.
“Please, have a seat,” the patterned man smiled.
“I am He Chaoliang from the Law Enforcent Hall, and beside is Situ Qianling from the Law Enforcent Hall.
We called you here just as a routine matter, to ask a few minor questions.
No need to be nervous.”
“Yes,” Gu An nodded, then sat down.
“Forty-six years old this year?
Qi Refining Seventh Layer?” Situ Qianling asked.
Her voice was flat, showing no emotion.
“Yes,” Gu An nodded.
“Do you know why we called you here?” Situ Qianling asked.
“Because of Senior Sister Qing?” Gu An ventured.
This matter had already spread around the Outer Sect.
“I don’t know” would be too foolish to say.
“Um.” Situ Qianling nodded indifferently:
“Why did you have to kill her then?”
Huh?
Gu An’s heart skipped a beat, but he did not let it show, instead he feigned confusion:
“What is Senior Sister talking about?”
Situ Qianling calmly stated:
“There’s no need to pretend anymore.
If we have called you in, it ans we have gathered evidence.
Why do you think we have co to find you so late?
It was just to catch you off guard.
We questioned everyone.
We only ca directly to you after we had gathered the evidence.”
Each statent from her stirred deep shock in Gu An’s heart.
Had he been discovered?
Had he left so evidence behind?
He didn’t know, but he wasn’t sure whether there was evidence or not.
Yet, even so, he needed to maintain his inner calm.
“Senior Sister, there must be so misunderstanding,” he earnestly said.
“I have just joined the Sect; how could I dare to do such a thing?”
“It seems you won’t give up until I show you the evidence,” Situ Qianling looked at the man in front of her and said:
“This is your last chance now, explain the reasons clearly.
Otherwise, you will be directly transferred to Luo Sheng Hall, where turning the situation around will be impossible.
If you confess now, at most you will be in Law Enforcent Hall.
Just compensate with so rit and the punishnt will be lighter.”
Gu An was puzzled in his heart, how would he be transferred to Luo Sheng Hall?
Isn’t this matter just about Luo Sheng Hall?
That is to say, the other party is very likely bluffing him.
“The junior doesn’t know what to explain,” Gu An felt more confident in his heart.
“Let’s do this,” He Chaoliang, who hadn’t spoken until now, smiled and said: “Junior Brother should go back, we give you three days to think it over well and decide to co to us.
If the Junior Brother does not co after three days.
Then what awaits the Junior Brother, will be the ultimate sanction.
How about that?”
Upon hearing this, Gu An could say no more.
The other party even opened the door to let him leave.
After Gu An left, He Chaoliang smiled and asked, “What does Junior Sister think?”
Situ Qianling blandly said, “Self-proclaid smart people, he is very likely, but lacks the cultivation.”
“Do you think he will co after three days?” He Chaoliang asked again.
“Whether he cos or not, we can’t see it,” Situ Qianling, while packing up, said:
“Keeping him as the last one, hoping for so surprise, it turned out just so, a small character after all.
The way he speaks and changes in emotions are too ordinary.
Like a peasant from the countryside.
He didn’t kill the person, but is sowhat related to it.
He had good relations with Hua Jiyang, perhaps he sought Hua Jiyang’s people.”
Hearing this, He Chaoliang said, “How does Junior Sister plan to write it?”
“How to write what?” Situ Qianling stood up and said, “Just submit the list of seven suspects, and add this Gu An.
Our task is almost done.”
“It is so, but don’t write him,” He Chaoliang said.
Hearing this, Situ Qianling was sowhat puzzled and said: “Why?”
“Our duty is to find out the list of murder suspects, did he kill the person?”
“No.”
“Then that settles it.”
“It does, he’s just an investigation lead, as long as it turns out his cultivation isn’t Qi Refining Seventh Layer, then he is almost certainly the culprit, despite it all he is still suspect, include him.”
“Alright.”
…
Gu An left the managent office and returned to the logging site.
He realized he wasn’t very good at controlling himself.
Even if he suppressed his inner thoughts all out.
He would still show sothing.
As for turning himself in after three days, he unequivocally did not take it to heart.
If he went, he would be self-incriminating; if not, it would likely be unrelated.
But one thing was certain, he had been targeted.
And was very likely on the suspect list for killing Chen Xi.
“How can I better control my own emotions?”
Gu An pondered while logging.
His mind wasn’t peaceful enough; facing such questions just now, he easily showed so slips.
He was neither a person with extraordinary talents nor a mind like a demon.
After all, he still had a common person’s ntality.
He had only begun killing a few months ago.
He should seek such a cultivation technique to enhance his own spirit.
To also prevent the influence of Charming Technique.
