Chapter 813: 201. I finally fooled everyone!_2
With this thought in mind, Fang Ze hesitated no longer and hastily borrowed Bai Ling’s “Black Panther” ability.
However, it was at this mont, perhaps because no one present had taken the initiative to speak up, the Executive Councilor looked over each person in turn, finally fixing his gaze on Fang Ze and then asked, “Director Fang Ze, I’ve always heard that you have a knack for solving cases and interrogating suspects. Why don’t you give us your opinion first?”
At the sa ti, as the Black Panther ability activated, Fang Ze discovered that his vision was suddenly filled with ominous gray fog, as if warning him that he was in the midst of a trap!
Having confird his suspicions with the ability, Fang Ze felt more confident as he quickly sorted through what important information he might have missed.
In a mont, a light bulb went on in his head, as he finally realized where the problem lay!
At that mont, he also broke out in a sweat on his back, realizing how close he had co to falling into the trap—really, just by a hair’s breadth!
Thinking this, Fang Ze looked at the Executive Councilor and slowly began to speak. He said, “My lord… I’m truly sorry. It’s possible that the command was not communicated properly, or perhaps I was simply forgotten to be notified. I… I’m still completely in the dark about what has happened.”
As he spoke, he glanced at the others, smiled apologetically, and said, “I only received notice to attend the eting, but as to the content of this eting, I have no idea.”
“And although I listened to the inquest concerning Commissioner Jiang, I might have been unable to follow because I was not provided the relevant information beforehand, so I really don’t know what you all are discussing.”
He paused and then said, “I can only guess from your fragnted discussions that it might have sothing to do with last night’s operation in Erald City, the one against the Rejuvenation Society.”
“But… wasn’t that operation successfully completed? Why start an inquest?”
Upon hearing Fang Ze’s response, the Executive Councilor was montarily taken aback, and the other observers—except for Jing Tai—also looked at Fang Ze in surprise.
Quick to smooth things over, Councilor Jia, sitting beside Fang Ze, rushed to diate the situation. He explained to Fang Ze with a smile, “Councilman Fang Ze, perhaps the person responsible for relaying information below forgot to inform you of the relevant details.”
“The situation is as follows, last night….”
……
Five minutes later, on the outskirts of the Provincial Governnt, in that small farmhouse.
A Black Clothed agent from the Special Service Departnt entered in haste, then presented a docunt to He Weidao.
He Weidao casually flipped through it, tossed the docunt onto the table, and said with an indifferent expression, “Understood. You may go.”
The Black Clothed quickly obeyed and retreated.
After the Black Clothed agent had left, He Weidao stood with his hands behind his back, gazing into the dark sky with a placid gaze, murmuring, “Not a single slip-up?”
“Is it excessive caution, or is he actually unrelated….?”
After standing like this for a while, He Weidao slowly retracted his gaze and said in a low voice, “There’s still Jiang Cheng’s final hurdle.”
“If there’s no issue there, then we can put Fang Ze’s matter on hold for now….”
More than an hour later, the Black Clothed agent from the Special Service Departnt returned once again, handing He Weidao a beautifully crafted box.
After dismissing the Black Clothed, He Weidao opened the box, and lying quietly inside was a mory Crystal that Fang Ze had seen before. Such a precious treasure could extract a person’s mories and allow for a real-scene viewing.
After handling the mory Crystal for a while, He Weidao placed it against his forehead. In a mont, the interrogation scene involving Jiang Cheng appeared in his mind.
“Jiang Cheng, do you know how costly it is to remove this kind of soul control?!”
“Moreover, if it weren’t for the fact that you are a mber of the Jiang Family and your soul’s origin had been protected by our ancestors, it would be impossible to save you!”
“So tell us everything you know! No hiding anything!”
At this point, Jiang Cheng, who had just had the soul control removed, was fuming and he categorically stated, “It was the Commoner Faction! The Commoner Faction did this!”
“That night, I was clearly asleep at ho, but when I woke up, I found myself in a strange place! Then a mysterious person appeared beside , knocked down, and took control of !”
“After that, he revealed his true face!”
The interrogator pressed Jiang Cheng, “Who?”
Jiang Cheng, “Gu Qing!”
The few mbers of the Jiang Family questioning him exchanged glances, at a loss for words.
Next, the interrogators asked Jiang Cheng for all the details about his control, and Jiang Cheng gave a detailed account without concealing anything.
This, of course, included how “Gu Qing” had arranged for him to fra Fang Ze, how he received new orders, and how he and Jing Tai, due to a series of mistakes, misunderstood each other’s missions.
In the end, the interrogators made one final confirmation, “Jiang Cheng. This kind of soul control is a very evil master-servant type ability.”
“But this ability has a flaw, which is that the servant can develop a sense with the master.”
“So, did you sense anyone while you were under control?”
Jiang Cheng was startled for a mont, then after thinking for a while, he said, “Besides Gu Qing at the very beginning, there were none.”
The interrogator, “What about Gu Qing from Erald City?”
Jiang Cheng shook his head.
The interrogator, “Then what about Chairperson He, Jing Tai, and the others?”
