"So why did you kill him?" Yuchi sat in front of Ling Huzhong and asked calmly. "Because when he first came to Canglan City, he was extremely arrogant. Once, when we were walking on the road, he bumped into me and acted like he didn’t care, saying it’s fine as long as I’m not dead. I was so angry, went back home feeling gloomy, and decided I had to kill him!" "So I started deliberately getting close to Ling Huzhong, deceived him by saying I had a good understanding of the missing person case with results, and made up some clues. Then I found an opportunity, under the pretense of leaving Canglan City, I ambushed him and completely killed him." "I know I was wrong, but he was clearly at fault first." Song Yinghan didn’t say a word, just silently glanced at Yuchi. The two of them tacitly watched Jia Yun’s performance in front of them. What the heck, the punishment hasn’t even started, and as a cultivator at the Foundation Establishment Stage Fifth Layer, you just confessed like that? Come on, we don’t even have evidence yet, you’re just a suspect, being questioned, and you just admitted it? It’s like in a past life, when Yuchi glanced at his college roommate’s computer screen, without saying anything, his roommate already answered: The study materials are in the new folder, all taught by top instructors, go take a look. What is this? A prophet? Yuchi wasn’t in a hurry either, calmly said: "Yinghan, write down his confession, have him sign and stamp it. We’ve solved this case, after going around in circles, we finally found him." Really? You just accepted it like that? ... Definitely not, Yuchi was probably just saying that on purpose. Song Yinghan, having been beside Yuchi for a while, gradually got the feeling, and relaxed, saying: "Alright, Mr. Yuchi, you may leave first. After things are settled, I’ll come find you!" Yuchi walked away directly. Song Yinghan stayed behind and started recording the confession. Jia Yun personally wrote it down, digging his own grave, and after signing and stamping, he was taken away from the Demon-slaying Bureau by Song Yinghan, leaving others in the bureau stunned. "This guy is tough, just some verbal conflict, and he lost his temper and said he’d kill Ling Huzhong, and just did it?" "But now he’s done for. After the judgment from the government offices, the Defense Department will step in, and it’s estimated he’ll be sent to the Great Tang Prison, and life there isn’t something just anyone can handle!" The crowd buzzed, squeezing together, completely unaware of what the situation was, just that somehow a murderer appeared among them, utterly baffling, proving indeed that among the masses there are bad people. In the Ziyue Star Pavilion, Yuchi returned alone, feeling somewhat awkward about the current situation. He had only offered a conjecture before, without any certainty, and it turned out he jinxed it. There really was some significant figure behind Jia Yun. Reflecting on Jia Yun’s earlier worried and fearful demeanor and the resigned expression, it’s likely this third person’s power is formidable enough to make Jia Yun completely abandon the hope of survival. Would rather go collecting soap in the Great Tang Prison alone than expose the person behind it? The door opened, and Song Yinghan came in as if returning to her own home. She skillfully removed her mask, poured herself a glass of cold tea, drank more than half in one gulp, and after exhaling deeply, she noticed Yuchi’s suggestive gaze. "Why are you looking at me like that..." Song Yinghan asked, blushing slightly. "Because you’re beautiful." Yuchi smiled, and as the beauty showed some shyness, about to give him a playful punch, he then asked: "How’s it going with Jia Yun’s case?" Thᴇ link to the origɪn of this information rᴇsts ɪn 𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭•𝘧𝘪𝘳𝘦•𝘯𝘦𝘵 "He’s already detained in the government cell waiting for trial. No need to worry about his escape; the government prison still has arrays, which can completely suppress his Foundation Establishment Fifth Layer power. Once the interrogation begins tomorrow, in a few days, people from the Great Tang Prison will come to take him away." "Logically speaking, he might face the death penalty, but before that, he must pass through the Great Tang Prison." "And when I handed over Jia Yun to the Imperial Decree Department just now, the City Lord, upon learning of your involvement, went all out to flatter you, attempting to have a meal together, even calling you his senior, saying he must learn from you." Speaking of this, Song Yinghan’s lovely face was all smiles. If someone complimented her, she wouldn’t feel much, but when Yuchi was praised, even knowing it was out of sycophancy, she still felt very happy. "You should have seen the City Lord’s respectful demeanor. If you were present, he might’ve knelt before you." "Kept calling you a revered senior, praising your expertise." Song Yinghan said with a laugh. Yuchi gave a courteous smile in return. After Song Yinghan sat down, she looked at Yuchi, who was smiling subtly, and curiously asked: "Are we just going to let the mastermind get away with it?"
