Chapter 812: The Doom Star Xia Na! Three Teams That Perished in Accidents!

"They all died in accidents!"

"You joined three teams, all of which died in accidents? Even if the Shanhu Squad died in an accident, what about the two previous mercenary squads?" Captain Tian Xincheng said coldly. "Now, several families of mercenaries have accused you of intentional murder, so we need you to cooperate fully with the investigation."

"Xia Na, just cooperate with the city guard's investigation!"

Xia Na protested, "But I don't want to be hypnotized or have my memories searched!"

Su Yang said coldly, "At this point, you have no choice!"

He understood Xia Na's reservations—she had many secrets she didn't want others to know.

But so what?

Who made her so suspicious?

To be honest, without the Seven-Colored Illusion Butterfly, Su Yang wouldn't believe her either.

Su Yang was the type who usually trusted people easily.

But once betrayed, he never trusted again.

He didn't want to waste time and energy on deceit and scheming.

Xia Na said loudly, "I'll accept hypnosis, but I want Chief Su of Sucheng to hypnotize me!"

Though they'd known each other briefly, Xia Na could tell.

Su Yang was cold, but his character wasn't terrible.

After recognizing her precious Treasure-Seeking Rat, he never thought to control her—only invited her to enlist.

After she refused, he didn't press further.

If she truly had to be hypnotized, she'd rather be hypnotized by Su Yang.

Because the things she valued most, Su Yang likely wouldn't care about.

Even if she revealed them to Su Yang, it wouldn't matter!

It was somewhat painful to admit.

But that was the truth!

She was like a poor man with a million in savings, living in constant fear that other poor people would steal it.

But faced with a billionaire, she didn't feel nearly so anxious.

Su Yang wouldn't steal from her.

"This is Tian Xincheng—he's not under my command. Even in Mount Dajiao, I'm not responsible for interrogations, and I have no interest in your secrets!"

Hearing Su Yang's words, Xia Na's heart sank.

But Xia Na still wouldn't give up.

To be hypnotized, to have memories searched—who knew what questions the Shoushidou Society would ask?

This wasn't paranoia; there were many rumors among the people.

If you weren't truly clean, don't accept hypnosis or memory search unless absolutely forced.

Because many military interrogators from the Shoushidou Society often asked a few extra questions during hypnosis and memory searches!

She had too many problems—if anything came out, she'd face endless troubles.

Xia Na: "Didn't the city lord say last time he wanted me to enlist? If the city lord would help me, I'll join your ranks and serve you faithfully!"

A Silver-Rank Beast Master serving me? Su Yang laughed. "Chief Mi, let's go!"

"Little girl, you might be overestimating yourself!" Mi Shan chuckled from the doorway. "Have you forgotten what rank Su Yang's adjutant is?"

Xia Na turned pale.

Xia Na knew perfectly well what rank Su Yang's adjutant held.

Liu Mengyun's name had spread throughout the entire southeast.

It was said Liu Mengyun's strength rivaled that of veteran King-level experts.

If Liu Mengyun was a swan, she might not even qualify as a barnyard chicken.

"But Chief Su, I think you could help this girl too!" Mi Shan said. "It's nothing to you, after all. I heard you hand over everything in Mount Dajiao to Deputy Liu—why not assign her as his errand-runner? If she's truly innocent!"

Su Yang glanced at Mi Shan, sensing this city lord was up to something.

Still, he was slightly tempted.

Liu Mengyun had been relying heavily on Fang Jing lately, but Fang Jing had one fatal flaw.

He wasn't a Summoner—he was destined to go nowhere.

And Xia Na?

She was sharp-witted.

And pretty too!

Seeing how desperately she begged him, if she were interrogated and something came out, she'd be in serious trouble.

Xia Na hurriedly said, "I'm willing—even as an errand-runner! Just don't reject me!"

Mi Shan said, "Chief Su, look, she's willing. Why not help out? You two already know each other!"

Xia Na had mentioned one detail.

Su Yang had once invited her to join the military.

That caught Mi Shan's attention.

What did that mean?

It meant Su Yang either liked the girl's looks, or sensed she possessed some extraordinary ability.

Considering Su Yang's cold demeanor and the girl's desperate refusal of hypnosis.

Mi Shan leaned toward the latter!

And the girl's ability might be decent—but not outstanding; Su Yang didn't need to possess it.

Otherwise, Su Yang wouldn't be so indifferent and refuse to save a life.

Mi Shan heard the rumor that Su Yang's current deputy, Liu Mengyun, might be transferred away.

He was willing to cultivate a good relationship with this young lady and conveniently help Su Yang secure a beautiful female subordinate.

Just to help bring about a good match.

"Alright!" Su Yang said. "You must thank Magistrate Mi!"

"Thank you, Magistrate Mi! Thank you, Magistrate Mi!"

Xia Na hadn't expected that the man sitting beside Su Yang was none other than Magistrate Mi of Xincheng!
