Seeing Fang Ze enter, Master Fenda's mood was complex.
As a Mind Power User, especially one at the Spirit Ascension stage, Master Fenda was a distinguished guest in various State Security Bureaus and so special departnts.
After all, Mind Power Users were exceedingly rare in this world, especially those with a complete set of Lie Detection, verification, and interrogation capabilities, and who were also highly skilled.
Indeed, with Master Fenda's capabilities, any case below the Spirit Ascension stage was practically guaranteed to be solved once he beca involved.
As for cases above the Spirit Ascension stage...
Those kinds of experts weren't just about solving cases anymore, but about catching them first...
Spirit Ascenders with more than seven abilities often prepared one or two escape abilities or similar Extraordinary Artifacts. Catching them was not easy.
Yet, despite such a transcendent status, Master Fenda had fallen—and fallen thoroughly!
He was forced into submission, his soul was bound by restrictions, and he was even constantly influenced by Mind Power!
It was impossible for him to not have negative thoughts about such a radical change.
But... these negative thoughts were almost always erased by so kind of Mind Power within 0.1 seconds of their inception, replaced by a brainwashing from the Law itself.
That Law incessantly "told" Master Fenda that Fang Ze was his master, and he must not harbor any complaints, dissatisfaction, or betrayal toward his master.
It was a very strange feeling: even though he knew all this "brainwashing" was false.
Yet, he couldn't stop it at all. His thoughts seed to be gradually changing with each repetition of the brainwashing.
He had thought about rejecting this brainwashing or seeking help. But... it was of no use.
His body and soul seed to be controlled, leaving him to only watch helplessly as he was slowly transford.
So, upon seeing Fang Ze again, although Master Fenda's heart was incredibly complex, his body still faithfully carried out the tasks set by Fang Ze.
"Sit, Lay Buddhist Fang," Master Fenda said with a gentle smile to Fang Ze, then gestured with his hand.
Fang Ze sat down, maintaining a resistant deanor as per the script he had written last night.
Master Fenda, pretending not to care, poured Fang Ze a cup of tea and then leisurely began to recount the "intelligence he had obtained from Fang Ze" the previous day...
Fang Ze initially seed "unconcerned" about it.
But later, gradually, as the narration continued, Fang Ze's expression beca increasingly hard to control, as if Master Fenda had struck a nerve.
However, once Master Fenda finished discussing the matter, Fang Ze managed to feign calm and then said coldly, "I'm sorry, Master Fenda. I don't know what you're talking about."
Honestly, seeing this, the old man and his deputy, who had been watching the interrogation from the monitoring room, almost imdiately believed the intelligence obtained by Master Fenda to be true.
However, after all, it hadn't yet been verified by the Awakening Ability.
So, they were still waiting for the verification results.
In their view, Master Fenda, just like yesterday, took out three coins and handed them to Fang Ze.
In the video, Fang Ze clearly did not want to cooperate and was thinking about directly destroying the property to resist the ability.
But this ti, Master Fenda was well-prepared in advance. Explore more stories at My Virtual Library Empire
He did not reach out to take the coins handed over by Fang Ze, but instead held his rosary beads and looked at Fang Ze, persuasively saying, "Lay Buddhist Fang."
"Since I have already learned the truth of the matter, even if you persistently refuse to undergo Lie Detection, the Defense Team can still look for evidence to prove the veracity of the information obtained through my interrogation."
"So... why bother?"
He said, "Although you bear so responsibility for this matter, you are more of a victim."
"Why not cooperate with the Defense Team, undergo the examination properly, and accept the responsibilities you ought to bear?"
"Moreover, it's more likely that you are actually innocent."
"You really shouldn't be so scared."
Possibly moved by these words, Fang Ze eventually sighed deeply and then said, "Alright. Everything you said is true." After saying this, he placed the coins into Master Fenda's hands.
In the video, the coins gently bounced twice, finally displaying heads.
Seeing this on the monitor, the deputy couldn't help but smile, looked at the old man, and said, "Sir, Fang Ze is truly innocent! And what he said is also true! With this, the case has made a significant breakthrough!"
This ti, the old man still didn't speak, his expressionless face inscrutable.
After a long silence, he suddenly spoke, "Changqing. Do you really think the truth of this matter is important?"
"Do you really think that after proving Fang Ze's innocence, he can truly leave?"
Hearing the old man's words, the deputy was montarily confused.
He looked at the old man, clearly not understanding his aning.
The old man was silent for a while, then looked at him and asked, "Do you rember the Golden Sparrow Flower Incident, the one from over a decade ago that led to the demise of one of Xida State's three great noble families, the Si Family?"
At the ntion of this case, the deputy's expression also grew serious.
He was silent for a mont and said, "I rember."
The old man slightly nodded and then said, "That should be the most absurd, ridiculous event in the entire history of the Federation."
"After the incident happened, even without a gag order, everyone was extrely taboo about it, ashad to ntion the matter."
Speaking thus, the old man, with his hands behind his back, seed to be recalling as he said, "At that ti, I was just like you, serving as a deputy in the military base."
"During that period, the Federation was under a lot of tension with the local nobles due to the centralization of power and the support for the Commoner Faction elites."
"To exert pressure on the states, the high-ranking official of the highest governing body of the Federation, the Chairperson of the Council, along with his wife, surveyed the states."
"In July, they ca to Xida State..."
