Build the Traveler Alliance from Scratch

Chapter 597

After leaving Fan Mansion and arriving at the unopened bookstore, Fan Xian led Ya Mu into the room in the corner of the backyard.

There, there was already a middle-aged man wearing the official uniform of the Overwatch Council waiting secretly.

Ya Mu looked him up and down and said, "Are you Wang Qinian?"

"Back to the young master, I am none other than you!"

Wang Qinian smiled and handed over to Yamu, then turned to look at Fan Xian and whispered: "Master Fan, after my subordinates left the capital, they followed Si Lili's escape and happened to meet people from all over the Supervisory Yuan who took him. Escort him back to Beijing."

"This subordinate wanted to return immediately and inform the Lord of this news, but he did not expect that there was an unexpected situation on the road. Someone actually intercepted the convoy of the Overwatch Council. It seemed that he wanted to kill the manager and silence him. Fortunately, the court had already taken precautions, so he did it in one fell swoop. Defeat the incoming enemy..."

Fan Xian's face turned cold: "It seems that there are people in Beijing who can't sit still...Wang Qinian, do you think the Overwatch Council has been prepared for this?"

Wang Qinian lowered his head and said, "Yes."

Fan Xian said calmly: "Did Dean Chen Pingping break out halfway and defeat the thieves who blocked the way?"

Wang Qinian raised his head in surprise, then hurriedly raised his hands and said: "Your Excellency, you really know things like a god!"

A smile appeared on Fan Xian's face, he leaned into Ya Mu's ear and said, "Look, let me tell you!"

Yamu glanced at him and didn't reply.

Fan Xian didn't care. He turned to look at Wang Qinian and continued to ask: "Where is the prison of the Overwatch Council? I want to see Si Lili."

Wang Qinian was startled and said cautiously: "Sir, are you sure? That is a prison!"

Fan Xian glanced at him and said, "Why, as a Tisi, am I not qualified to enter the Heavenly Prison?"

Wang Qinian showed hesitation: "This..."

Fan Xian turned around and walked to a bookcase, took out a night jacket and threw it to Wang Qinian.

"Put it on, let's go now."

"Ah, are you going now?"

"Can't you do it now?"

"This... is not impossible." Wang Qinian said with some embarrassment, "I just think it's better to go to the prison at night. Wouldn't it be more conspicuous to wear night clothes in broad daylight?"

Fan Xian said angrily: "Of course I know this. I asked you to change into night clothes because I don't want to leave behind the characteristics of your clothes. It has nothing to do with day and night. You should put it on quickly!"

"oh oh!"

Wang Qinian then held the clothes in his hands, turned around and walked into the darkroom.

The Overwatch Council is directly under the command of the emperor and is the most trusted institution by the emperor. Therefore, the prison in Qing Dynasty is not located in the Ministry of Punishment or Dali Temple, but is located here. All serious criminals are detained here, and the security is extremely tight.

The Tianlao location is not far from the Overwatch Council. It is just around the corner. If something happens, the Overwatch Council can provide immediate support.

Generally speaking, in an important place like Tianlao, any unknown person will definitely not be able to enter.

But the Tisi waist card in Fan Xian's hand is an exception.

He had long discovered that this Supervisor Yuan chief executive seemed to have always been mysterious. According to Wang Qinian, the previous chief executive was also mysterious and unusual, and rarely showed his true face to anyone other than the dean.

The elders in the Overwatch Council basically all agree that Tisi does not need to show his face.

Therefore, when Wang Qinian handed the waistband to the guard guarding the prison, the three sneaky masked men sneaked into the prison easily and were respectfully invited in by the guard. of.

It went so smoothly that Fan Xian couldn't help but feel surprised.

Among the three of them, Yamu was the only one who didn't have much mood swings.

Because since he arrived at the door of Tianyao, he noticed several secretly prying eyes.

Each of these people spying in secret possesses strength that is no less than that of Fan Xian.

The aura of one of them stood out from the crowd like a chicken, which attracted Yamu's special attention.

Of course, no matter how big an ant is, it is still an ant to Yamu.

Yamu paid attention to this person, not because of his strength that far exceeded others, but because there was a slightly sickly aura beside him. It must be Chen Pingping, the director of the Overwatch Council!
  Ya Mu silently sensed Chen Pingping's aura while he and Fan Xian stepped into the corridor under the iron gate.

The corridor was very long, with dim oil lamps lit on both sides. The stone steps felt a little slippery, but there was not a speck of moss on them. It seemed that they were taken care of very carefully.

Walking down, you can see a guard at intervals.

These guards all look inconspicuous, but upon closer inspection, they are all characters of level four or above.

Not only that, the eyes of these guards were also quite sinister, like evil ghosts crawling out of hell. Wherever they looked, even Fan Xian, who had advanced to the eighth level, would feel a little creepy.

...Why are they all perverts? !

Fan Xian complained in his mind while lagging slightly behind and walking side by side with Ya Mu.

Thinking of Ya Mu's existence, he immediately felt relaxed.

After all, no matter how powerful Tianlao is, it can't still hide a great master, right?
  Soon, the three of them reached the end of the corridor, and a prison guard with somewhat cloudy eyes glanced at the three of them.

"Please three adults present relevant documents or the inner palace's handwriting."

"..."

Wang Qinian's body trembled slightly, as if he recognized the prison boss, and he quickly handed over his belt badge respectfully.

The old prison chief took a look, raised his head in surprise, looked at Wang Qinian up and down through the black mask, and suddenly said:
  "Xiao Wang, have you been promoted?"

Sure enough, he was recognized... Wang Qinian smiled bitterly, turned aside respectfully, and let Fan Xian, who was shrouded in black robes, introduce him: "I will accompany this gentleman to the trial today."

The cell leader looked at Ya Mu and Fan Xian again, thought for a moment, stood up and walked to the iron door, took out the key and opened it.

"Sir, please come in."

"..."

Fan Xian cupped his hands, and the three of them walked into the iron gate together.

After the iron gate closed, Fan Xian looked at Wang Qinian in surprise: "How come you were recognized?"

Wang Qinian said with a sad face: "Returning to your lord, the Seventh Branch of the Supervisory Yuan is responsible for the torture and imprisonment of enemies. I made some mistakes when I was young. I have been to the prisons of these seven branches and have met this gentleman several times." .”

At this point, Wang Qinian looked at the iron gate and lowered his voice: "He is the former director of the Seventh Branch. He has spent his whole life in prison. When the time comes for him to be released, he actually refuses to leave. He would rather come back and continue to be a prisoner. The prison boss said he liked the smell of blood here..."

"Okay, another pervert!"

Fan Xian complained and stepped forward.

Soon, the three of them found the cell where the manager was being held.

Looking at the beautiful woman inside the fence, Fan Xian frowned. Just as he was about to step forward, Ya Mu raised his hand and grabbed his arm.

"……What's wrong?"

"It's nothing. You go and interrogate this girl yourself. I'll watch it for you outside."

Hearing Ya Mu's calm words, Fan Xian couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

After thinking for a moment, he nodded and said, "Okay, if anything happens, I'll call your name right away."

Yamu nodded, let go of his hand, and watched Fan Xian and Wang Qinian walk towards the cell.

When Fan Xian started talking to the woman in the cell, Yamu turned around, took steps, and walked to a dark stone brick wall.

"Should you come out, or should I go in?"

Yamu said calmly while looking at the stone brick wall in front of him.

After the words fell, the stone brick wall in front of him remained silent.

After a moment of silence, Yamu shook his head and raised his fist.

Only then did the dark stone brick wall quietly open, revealing the secret room behind it.

"Come in." A leisurely voice came out, "Don't disturb Fan Xian."

Yamu lowered his arms calmly and stepped into it.

Sure enough, there were two people in the secret room, one was an old man with fine wrinkles at the corners of his eyes, sitting in a special black wheelchair, and the other was a mysterious man wearing a black robe and a dark mask, standing behind the old man pushing a wheelchair.

This person is the most powerful Qi in Yamu's perception.

The old man in the wheelchair in front of him was naturally Chen Pingping, the director of the Supervisory Yuan.

After Yamu walked into the secret room, Chen Pingping tilted her head slightly and signaled the masked man behind her to turn the wheelchair around and face Yamu, with a faint smile on his old face.

"Mr. Mu, I have admired you for a long time."

"...Are you Chen Pingping?"

Yamu looked at the old man calmly and said.

The old man smiled and nodded: "Yes, it's me, I'm Chen Pingping."

After saying that, Chen Pingping asked with a smile: "Mr. Mu, you don't seem to be surprised that I know your identity."

Yamu said calmly: "The story Fan Xian fabricated was full of loopholes. Only Mrs. Fan as a witness prevented Fan Jian from becoming suspicious. But after all, you control the Overwatch Council, so it will be easy for you to investigate my past."

Chen Pingping smiled, shook her head and said: "Mr. Mu, for an extraordinary person like you, stop teasing a lame old man. Regarding your past, even the Supervisory Yuan can only investigate Danzhou. "

"The clues reached the preschool and disappeared without a trace."

As Chen Pingping spoke, she rubbed the armrest of the wheelchair with her right hand and whispered: "If it were anyone else, after checking Danzhou and finding that you appeared out of thin air like a heavenly being, they would definitely feel confused."

"But I'm different. I've seen characters appear out of thin air and have no roots."

After saying that, Chen Pingping raised her head and looked at Yamu deeply.

Obviously, like the old lady in Danzhou, he believed that Yamu was a man from the temple.

Yamu did not explain or refute, but his eyes moved down and fell on Chen Pingping's palm tightly clasped on the inside of the armrest of the wheelchair.

"I suggest you don't shoot." Yamu shook his head, "A firearm of this level is far from being able to hurt me."

"...You are indeed no ordinary person."

Chen Pingping narrowed her eyes slightly, but she still didn't let go of her palms clasping the inside of the armrest.

"I really want to know what your intentions are when you come to Fan Xian?"

"..."

Yamu looked at Chen Pingping silently, and after a moment he shook his head: "This is not something you can know. If you really want to know, then just wait. Wait until Fan Xian knows everything, and then let him decide. Do you want me to tell you?"
