I have a knife, out of the sheath can kill monsters

Chapter 202 Doubt, Investigation, Exploration

After killing people, Ji Chen walked out of the room, went downstairs and asked the shopkeeper to check out.

Then walked out of the inn with an oiled paper umbrella, leaving a hidden flame mark in the hidden place of the inn

After that, he walked towards Fujun's Yamen, walked around outside Fujun's Yamen, made sure that Xu Yuzhai was dead, then flew over the Yamen and disappeared into the rain and fog.

He deliberately showed up and set up a circle of doubts, in order to guide the direction of the investigation.

After a while, he walked into the secluded place before, a remote alley, and as Ji Chen walked in, his figure gradually faded until he disappeared completely.

The rain covered all his breath,
It rained all night. In Ji Chen's memory, this was the first rain in Liangzhou City this year.

It's spring rain!

Ji Chen sat in the room, exhaled, and practiced.

Tonight is destined to be a sleepless night, but it has nothing to do with Ji Chen, he has been practicing in his room after work tonight, just like in the past.

The governor's yamen was in chaos, Ding Zhao came in person, and the red flags of several major towns followed behind him, in a hurry.

Zou Bingnan, the silver-clothed chief arrester of the Patrol Division, also came in person, and several bronze-clothed chief arresters were dispatched together.

The killing of the Fujun is definitely a major event that pierces the heavens. It is a provocation to the court, a contempt for the law, and a shake of the royal power.

Xu Chengwei, including a group of students from Luocheng Academy, all died in the government's yamen, in his own room.

Doors, windows, and roofs, there are no traces of anyone entering. This is an extremely strange murder case in a secret room.

In this world of gods and ghosts, there is no so-called secret room murder case at all, only sorcerer killings, it depends on whether the murderer can be found.

The Demon Suppressing Division, the Patrol Division, and the two major agencies joined forces to seal off the entire city, and began to investigate overnight, centering on the government's yamen, and conducted investigations in all directions.

One by one, the demon emissaries and catchers, all dressed in black clothes and with a single sword hanging from their waists, galloped through the rain and fog.

The boots trampled on the stagnant water, and Xuanyi's accessories and swords collided and rattled.

Many shopkeepers watched this scene curiously through the crack of the door.

Liangzhou City hadn't seen such a huge scene for a long time, and the two organizations were mobilized together.

Many people speculated that something must have happened.

The whole city was searched. Although the murderer has already left, what they want to investigate now is clues, to see if they can find any clues left by the murderer.

No matter whether it is murder by sorcery or burglary, it is impossible to be perfect, and it will inevitably leave clues.

In fact, whether it's Ding Zhao from the Monster Suppression Division or Zou Bingnan from the Patrol Division, Ji Chen is the first person to suspect at this moment.

Because the people who were killed happened to have enmity with Ji Chen, the targeting was too clear, neither one more nor one less was killed.

But after thinking about it, Ji Chen shouldn't be so stupid. That sentence is too specific. The 12 people who were killed happened to have a relationship with him. If he really did it, wouldn't it be a firestorm? Do not call yourself.

And there was another big problem. Although Xu Yuzhai practiced Confucianism and Taoism, his cultivation was definitely beyond innate. If he wanted to kill him silently, he needed to be many levels higher than him.

Although Ji Chen is invincible under the demigod, he is also under the demigod. The demigod is a watershed. Even if he has the ability to leapfrog fighting, it is impossible to be silent.

But it doesn't rule out that Ji Chen did the opposite, intentionally, and killed these twelve people in a targeted manner, playing the card of fishing in troubled waters.

So Ji Chen still needs to investigate, and strictly investigate.

"Master Ding, you should check Ji Chen's side, or I will check!"

Zou Bingnan spoke up, first of all he had to rule out Ji Chen, so that the case could be investigated in other directions.

Otherwise, it will affect their investigation thinking, because they can't rule out Ji Chen, they will unconsciously associate it with Ji Chen and make inferences of guilt.

But if it is found out that he did it, it would be even better and close the case directly.

The reason why Zou Bingnan asked Ding Zhao was because Ji Chen's status was too special, not only as the general banner of the Zhenyao Division, but also because he had some relationship with the two people who lived in the Dingbei Hou's Mansion.

Most importantly, Ji Chen's name has been known by many dignitaries in Beijing.Some princes and generals liked his poems very much, so they had to be cautious.

Ding Zhao said blankly: "Go and investigate, I want to avoid suspicion, and let me know if there is any result."

"Thank you, Master Ding!"

Zou Bingnan bowed his hands and said goodbye, and left the Fujun's yamen with a group of chief arrestees.

In the yamen, only the general banners of Zhenyao Division and Ding Zhao with a gloomy face remained.

As soon as he took office, a Fujun died. It was because someone deliberately prevented him from securing this position.

It rained all night and finally stopped at dawn.

A ray of light rose from the east, cut through the mist, and shone into Liangzhou City.

Ji Chen also woke up from the samadhi, and opened the window to let fresh air flow in.

The air after the rain is fresh with earth.

It was a vibrant morning, and the dead trees in the yard had sprouted young leaves, with crystal water droplets hanging on them, shining colorful colors under the sunlight.

During the war more than ten days ago, the tree was set on fire, and all the leaves and branches were burned into charcoal, but the trunk did not lose its vitality. Ji Chen cut a small piece of spiritual stone and buried it under the tree. In just a few days, the dark branches Then sprouts sprouted and new leaves grew.

Just when Ji Chen was about to go up to the roof to breathe in the morning sun, an unexpected visitor came.

Zou Bingnan, the silver-clothed chief arrester of the Patrol Department.

"Ji Zongqi, I took the liberty to visit, so I didn't disturb you!"

"No, my lord, please come in!"

Ji Chen invites Chiranan into the house.

"My lord came early in the morning, there must be something important, but it doesn't matter!"

Ji Chen took the initiative to speak. In fact, Chizuru Nan came last night and searched around the yard. All the people and neighbors around him were interrogated overnight. Ji Chen felt all of this.

"Ji Zongqi is really quick-witted, so I won't play around. Just last night, Lord Xu died and was killed in the study."

While talking, Chiranan Nan observed Ji Chen's expression.

Ji Chen was surprised when he heard the words, as if he couldn't believe it.

"Master Xu is dead? How is it possible?"

His expression was shocked, and he obviously couldn't believe it was real.

Life is like a play, it depends on acting.

At this moment, Ji Chen's eyes and expression are just right, and he can even see doubts on his face.

How could a majestic man, a Confucian of the generation, with a cultivation level above that of a demigod, be killed by someone? Who would be so bold.

Chigannan didn't find any flaws in Ji Chen's expression.

Then he asked again: "Did you stay at home all night last night?"

"Yes, I have been practicing. The battle more than ten days ago gave me a lot of insights. In the past few days, I have exchanged my cultivation experience with people during the day, and I have gained a lot of insights at night."

As Ji Chen spoke, he was taken aback for a moment, and then looked at Chibi Nanan in disbelief, "Master Chi, don't you doubt me?"
