Chapter 165: Big Boss Li Cheng Plays It Well!
"I can't tell, I really can't tell!"
"Who can tell me, what is the truth after all!"
Ji Bo hugged his head, knelt on the ground, and roared at the dim Star Domes.
And the crowd inside the room, their expressions looking at Big Boss, were already no different from looking at a monster.
The eat melon crowd were dumbfounded.
Things having come to this, the evidence is conclusive, everyone is convinced, the murderer is this Ji Bo.
It is precisely because of this that they are so shocked.
No, brothers, I remember, you're just an underage student, right?
Why, a case that had the Academy Guards racking their brains, unable to solve no matter what, you just arrived and solved it?
Also, weren't you doing deduction?
How did you deduce the suspect into a madman?
And the Full Moon Academy guards, in their eyes besides shock, there was also irrepressible shame.
The faster Big Boss solves the case, the more useless they appear.
After all, from the first case occurring until now, two months have already passed.
In these two months, this bunch of guards, besides classifying case after case as suicide, did nothing else at all.
It was also just at this moment, several guards looked at each other, each reading the other's thoughts —
Must find a way to recruit Big Boss into the Magic Defense Section.
"I feel Big Boss is very suitable to be our Magic Defense Section's elite, I plan to specially form a squad, with him as leader, what do you think?"
The Deputy Section Chief suddenly spoke.
"This, doesn't comply with the rules, right." Another guard said: "He is after all a student, not yet an adult."
"Hmph." The Deputy Section Chief coldly snorted: "Foolish, you remember, Full Moon Academy has never had any school rule stipulating that underage students cannot be Guard Section squad leaders."
Other Academy Guards:...
It was also just then, that heaven-defying genius who proposed the Ice Block Murder Method, also wanted to speak.
But because his mouth was covered by a colleague, he could only make "wu wu wu wu" sounds.
"What do you want to do again, don't embarrass yourself further!"
"Wu wu wu!"
That guard struggled with all his might to break free of his colleagues' restraints, rushed through layer upon layer of obstruction, bang—knelt before Big Boss, tears streaming down the wrinkles of his face: "Teacher, I want to learn how to solve cases, Teacher!"
"Please, teach me how to solve cases!"
The other guards, instantly full of regret.
Didn't you just say, Big Boss's case-solving ability was only a bit worse than yours? And Big Boss also looked at this live treasure with a laugh-or-cry expression.
Where would he understand any case-solving.
This case, also fundamentally wasn't done by Ji Bo.
The real murderer, is Dian Huo.
It was Dian Huo possessing the Royal Clan member's body, performing self-immolation.
What he just did, was all using questioning, completing a lie.
As long as his deduction is reasonable, conforms to logic, forms a closed loop, he can affect the surrounding people's cognition, making them treat it as reality.
But the cost is also quite large.
Dian Fire Old Man just now lost 500,000 years of lifespan in one go, Big Boss watching even felt a bit...
Satisfying~ Collecting his mind, Big Boss again turned his gaze toward the helplessly groaning Ji Bo and the two old monsters behind him:
"Hehe, now the truth is revealed, I think Miss Ratania, should not need to go back with you guys, right?"
The two old monsters, faces alternating green and purple, clearly angered enough.
The King's Court's Crown Prince, his importance placed on Ratania, exceeds everyone's imagination.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have dispatched both of them together to assist Ji Bo.
These two old monsters originally thought, this mission was extremely simple, absolutely effortless.
Yet didn't expect, the result would actually be like this.
Most terrifying is, they know very clearly, Ji Bo absolutely is not the murderer who killed his brother.
They fundamentally cannot understand, why a relic proving he is the murderer would suddenly appear in Ji Bo's pocket? This situation, either the Full Moon Queen's strength has advanced once again, completely without releasing any spiritual power fluctuations, she put that relic into Ji Bo's pocket.
Or, she made a prediction in advance, judged that the King's Court would move against her disciple, so she made arrangements in advance.
Whichever possibility, for the King's Court, is not a good thing.
Just don't know, this arrangement, ultimately was it the Full Moon Queen who did it, or that Big Boss who did it...
If it was Big Boss who did it, that's a bit too terrifying.
An underage child, thoughts actually able to be profound to this extent... this is almost catching up to the current Emperor, right...
Think as they might, the two old monsters still feel, this series of schemes within schemes, was done by the Full Moon Queen.
After all, if it was Big Boss who did it, their hearts cannot accept it.
After a bout of contemplation, the two old monsters' moods improved somewhat.
When it comes down to it, they have still lived many years, cultivated face skin thicker than city walls.
【56】 After half a moment, they squeezed out two sentences: "Kid... you're good, really good."
After a long while, he squeezed out two sentences: "Kid... you're good, really good."
"Hehe, if you have time come to the Royal Capital... drink tea."
After speaking, they dragged Ji Bo, walking toward the door, imposing manner, killing intent soaring.
"Wait."
Big Boss suddenly spoke up.
"What's wrong, kid, do you have something else?"
The two old monsters turned around.
"I say, you two, you can leave if you want, but please leave the killer behind." Big Boss revealed a warm and sunny smile.
"Killer? Hah, I say Big Boss, the matter of the killer doesn't require your concern." One of the old monsters said: "Since this case, the dead are all people of our King's Court, then Ji Bo, naturally will be taken back by us to deal with."
"Hehe, that won't do." Big Boss still had that sunny smile: "This case is a case of Full Moon Academy, to interrogate, to deal with, naturally will be handled by our Academy."
"Kid, do you know what you're saying?"
"Or rather, do you know who you're speaking to?"
Both old monsters stopped their steps, undisguised killing intent appearing on their faces.
Big Boss was not afraid at all, continuing to smile: "I only know, this place is Full Moon Academy."
"Hehe, Full Moon Academy, what a Full Moon Academy." The old monster mocked with a laugh: "Then what do you want to do, try as much as possible, hehe."
"Big Boss, no need!" Latanaya stood behind him, lightly tugging his clothes: "I didn't suffer any loss either."
Tata thought Big Boss wanted to vent for him, and hurriedly advised against it.
To vent a breath of anger, offending two monsters close to Tenth Rank, the cost-effectiveness was really too low.
But Big Boss didn't think so; him acting against Ji Bo was not simply venting for Tata.
That 【Blood Rose's Tear】 was not only a powerful Relic, but also something developed by Tifeng's mother and daughter, roughly speaking, wasn't it his own? His, that was his.
It must be recovered.
Besides, don't look now how these two old things disdain Ji Bo, but this person actually could help the Crown Prince's Consort with limb grafting, which shows his status is very high.
Joke, these two old things are just one step away from Tenth Rank; after leaving this door, with them protecting him, Big Boss wanting to kill Ji Bo would really take some effort.
Of course he must act while Vivian was by his side.
Thus, his gaze condensed, the Drama God's Long Spear appeared in his hand, transforming into a Heavy Hammer.
The next moment, the power of the 【Crimson Blood Moon Dragon】 spread throughout his body, and he also turned into an afterimage and disappeared.
The next time he appeared, he was already in front of Ji Bo.
The two old monsters looked at Big Boss in shock, with unprecedented disbelief flashing on their faces.
How dare he? A Third Rank mage actually dared to act in front of the two of them, half-step Tenth Rank?
How dare he!!! Anger surged to the top of their heads, the two old monsters simultaneously gathered Spiritual Power, raising the Magic Staffs in their hands.
Since you dare to anger us, then die here! Just at this moment, Vivian's cold voice sounded.
"Want to do something, just do it; if there's something, I'll take responsibility."
Immediately, this Queen of Full Moon Academy appeared between the two old monsters, raising both hands, gripping the two Magic Staffs.
At the same time, the piercing Extreme Cold Power spread from the Magic Staffs, in an instant freezing their hands into Ice Sculptures.
This was of course not a killing move, and the two old monsters wouldn't be defeated so easily.
But because of this, they were powerless to take care of Big Boss passing by their side.
The Heavy Hammer was raised high; Ji Bo went limp on the ground, the fear of death filling his eyes with tears.
Until this moment, Ji Bo had never considered the possibility that he would die here.
He always felt that although this time he failed, at most he would be reprimanded by the Crown Prince's Consort; as long as he performed well, there would surely be a chance to play a second round with Big Boss.
But now, he discovered he was wrong, terribly wrong.
He kept moving his body backward, trembling as he said:
"You want to kill me? How dare you kill me!"
"Save, save me, someone come, save me!"
Ji Bo's Guards hurriedly drew their Knight Swords and charged at Big Boss. But unexpectedly, Big Boss only curled the corner of his mouth slightly; the Invisible Wind Blade, unable to be observed by the naked eye, actually flew toward their heads.
These Knights were elites; the instinct of life and death made them raise their Long Swords, placing them in front.
The Wind Blade was shattered, with only a small part brushing past their cheeks.
The 【Invisible Wind Blade】's special effect of forcibly blowing off the innermost layer of clothes was also triggered.
Then, these Knights, with eyes trembling, knelt down on the ground.
The lining inside their Knight Armor, used to support their bodies and protect vital parts, suddenly shattered.
The sharp armor directly rubbed against their balls, making them endure pain that men should not endure.
That kind of pain was absolutely unbearable for ordinary people.
Only a few with firm will had long cultivated the formidable ability to pierce through armor.
And these few were even more miserable; their armor directly exploded, revealing the "Brother" flesh.
For a moment, the Guards were given a salute of attention by the Eat Melon Crowd, and they no longer had the chance to protect their Master.
"No, no, no, I, I was wrong, please, let me go!"
"I, I am a Royal Grandson, I have money, I have Relics, I have so many things; all these things, I can give them all to you!"
"You can't kill me; the Crown Prince's Consort won't let you go!"
Ji Bo collapsed on the ground, shaking his head continuously; below his crotch, a foul yellow liquid had already been secreted.
"Truly disgusting." Big Boss smiled: "The Tianming Divine Court rules the world with martial arts; in your generation, a coward who can't even pick up a Sword has appeared."
It was only at this moment that Ji Bo remembered he was a Fifth Rank Knight.
In front of Big Boss, he was not without the power to fight.
But Big Boss was unwilling to give him a chance.
The Heavy Hammer fell; at the moment it smashed into Ji Bo, 【Stare and Explode】 was also triggered.
He didn't want others to know he had the ability to randomly explode heads, so he held the Heavy Hammer as a disguise.
Only a loud boom was heard.
The heavy hammer smashed down, and Ji Bo's head exploded into a pile of debris.
Crimson and pink petals fluttered through the sky.
At this moment, everyone was stunned.
Everyone stared blankly at the debris, their faces showing expressions as if they were dreaming.
A Fifth Rank Knight.
A Royal Grandson of the Tianming Divine Court.
Just like that, killed?
Under the protection of two famous Strong Ones, his head was smashed by a Third Rank mage with a heavy hammer?
Am I not awake yet? Terrible, this is truly too terrible.
The onlookers all had this thought simultaneously.
Three seconds later.
These people all gasped in unison, yet a nameless joy arose in their hearts.
Although nothing was said outright.
But as members of Full Moon Academy, these teachers and students were dissatisfied with the Tianming Divine Court's arrogant appearance.
It was one thing to suspect Latanaya was the killer before,
but now the killer was confirmed to be Ji Bo, and he still looked like this!
What thing, truly thinking Full Moon Academy was run by your family? Big Boss's action was exactly helping them vent their malice fiercely.
Fresh blood splattered onto Big Boss's body, setting off his sunny smile as incomparably evil and terrifying.
Like a Death God returned from Di Yu, a calm and elegant smile.
But he had no awareness of doing anything great at all, merely squatting down slowly and searching on Ji Bo's body.
Not only the Magic Badge Stone that exploded out, but also his Magic Ring, and that piece of 【Blood Rose's Tear】.
These spoils of war must be recovered immediately.
And behind Big Boss, two old monsters were trembling all over, their hairs standing on end.
Anger had made the pus bags on their bodies tend to burst.
Their nephew, the child most appreciated by Crown Prince's Consort, Ji Bo, was just head-exploded by one hammer right under their eyelids.
And they were helpless.
What did we protect! Humiliation, an unprecedented humiliation surged into their hearts.
The two of them had not felt such humiliation for many years.
From becoming Ninth Rank Strong Ones, they became the privileged class of Beginning Continent; whatever they wanted, they would get.
Whatever they wanted to do, no one dared stop them.
Whatever they did not want to see, no one dared do.
They only needed to restrain their tempers and tuck their tails before a limited few people.
And among these people, the Third Rank mage boy in front definitely would not be included.
Big Boss killed not only Ji Bo, but also their face.
Big Boss was like stepping his foot on their faces, rubbing fiercely!
Anger surged into their hearts; at this moment, the two old monsters wished to swallow Big Boss alive and skin him.
But the existence of Full Moon Queen prevented them from taking action.
"Full Moon Queen, are you still going to protect him?" One old monster rubbed his vocal cords, releasing a sharp and withered voice: "He killed the Royal Grandson, the Royal Grandson!"
"What happened to the Royal Grandson?" Full Moon Queen narrowed her eyes, directly protecting her own: "According to Heavenly Mandate Law, killing six people of the same clan, let alone the Royal Grandson, even Crown Prince's Consort should be executed; Big Boss did nothing wrong."
"Full Moon, do you want to go to war with Tianming Divine Court?" The other old monster endured his anger.
"Senior, why do you say that? Wasn't it you who told me to kill him?" Big Boss organized the spoils of war and spread his hands.
"What did you say?"
"Didn't you say, let me try it?" "You..." The old monster was speechless for a moment; he suddenly remembered that he indeed said those words.
But the meaning of those words, anyone could tell it was a threat!
"Senior, you told me to try, I tried, I succeeded, yet you look like this, unable to play anymore." Big Boss smacked his lips twice: "Downhead Male, broken defense."
"You TMD!"
This sentence completely ignited the old monster; he gripped his Magic Staff and wanted to kill Big Boss.
But unexpectedly, Big Boss had no hesitation at all, directly hiding behind Vivian.
Full Moon Queen waved her hand, and Cold Ice wrapped all academy members behind her, including Big Boss.
"You TMD, you hide behind a woman, what kind of man are you!"
The two old monsters continuously released Royal Magic, but that magic could not break through Full Moon Queen's defense.
Big Boss also continuously outputted: "Broken defense, broken defense!"
"Get out here for me, receive death for me!"
"Broken defense, broken defense."
"Scum, you scum!"
"Hehe, Downhead Male, broken defense again~"
"......"
No matter what the two old monsters cursed, Big Boss responded to all changes with no change, one sentence "Downhead", the next "broken defense".
The two old monsters had never said so many curse words in their lives, angry to the point of redness.
But Vivian wanted to stop them, yet they had no way at all.
Now is not just now; the ones in the right have already shifted from them to the Full Moon Academy side.
Just as Vivian just said, according to the law, for such a heavy crime, Ji Bo should be sentenced to lingchi execution.
A few minutes later, the two old monsters who had vented for a long time finally recovered a bit of calm.
It wasn't that they weren't angry anymore, just that they realized this kind of petty brawling gave them not a shred of chance to harm the Full Moon Queen and Li Cheng.
"I say this matter should stop here." Vivian sighed: "Ji Bo is the murderer, he deserves to die. Li Cheng was just youthful hot-bloodedness, couldn't stand to watch, so he let him receive the law's judgment."
"What a fine youthful hot-bloodedness, good, since you want to talk Heavenly Mandate Law, then I'll accompany you in talking it!"
"I ask you, even if Ji Bo deserves to die, Li Cheng isn't law enforcement personnel either, he also has no qualification to execute!" The other old monster gritted his teeth: "Is this upholding the law? Isn't he intentionally killing?"
"Hmm, what you say is very right." Li Cheng instead laughed cheerfully: "According to the law, I indeed overstepped."
"Then you still?" The old monster narrowed his eyes.
"But there's no way..." Li Cheng spread his hands: "You seem to have no way with me either."
"After all, according to the law you speak of, you also aren't a Zhengfa Guan, and have no right to judge me. Even less right to directly take Ji Bo away."
"What thing?!"
The old monster froze.
Not to mention, the two of them really aren't people from the Zhengfa Guan system; if one nitpicks wording, they indeed have no qualification to manage this matter.
It was also just then, above the Full Moon Academy's dome, suddenly light flickered.
That was the light of a deity bestowing Divine Favor.
