Chapter 378

"Not right?"

Li Fei looked at He Jian.

He Jian: "Just a kind of intuition."

Li Fei did not dare to ignore this great detective's intuition: "Where does Lord He feel it is not right?"

"What if it was not right from the very beginning?"

"Ah?"

Li Fei was stunned, and soon reacted:

"Is Lord He talking about those few letters?"

A look of appreciation appeared in He Jian's eyes: "Yes, what if those few letters were deliberately left behind by people from the New Heaven Society?"

Li Fei carefully recalled the situation at the time:

"I killed my way over suddenly; the other party couldn't have predicted it in advance, and the other party also misjudged my strength, never thinking that they wouldn't be able to beat me. Their evacuation was definitely an emergency evacuation... In such a situation, were they deliberately left behind letters?"

This possibility indeed existed, but there was no basis for it for the time being.

"I thought Lord He always emphasized evidence when investigating cases."

Li Fei smiled.

He Jian: "Investigating cases naturally requires evidence, but many times this old man's intuition has been proven right in the end."

Li Fei nodded: "Boldly guess, carefully verify?"

A smile appeared on He Jian's face: "Lord Li summarizes it very well."

Li Fei looked at He Jian: "Lord He, after this case is investigated, can you come and help me investigate another case?"

"Oh?"

"As Lord He taught, professional things should be left to professional people to do."

"As long as the Supervisory Cabinet gives the order, this old man will naturally go all out."

"Good, then I have reserved Lord He's schedule for the next period."

Li Fei smiled.

He Jian had never heard the word 'schedule', but he understood what Li Fei meant, and a trace of a smile also appeared on his serious face.

Inside the dim prison, an old man and a young man walked out of the shadows together.

On the afternoon of the day the Red Sleeve Restaurant proprietress Shao Sirou was arrested and put into the Supervisory Department's jail, the Supervisory Department dispatched frequently and arrested more people.

These people were all people who had close contacts with the Red Sleeve Restaurant in the past, and they were all people from the Entering the World Society!

Now, many people began to realize the seriousness of the matter, and those big shots who had been constantly putting pressure on the Supervisory Department also stopped.

If the Entering the World Society was really involved in the Temple of Heaven assassination case, then putting pressure on the Supervisory Department at this time meant something completely different.

February 25th, morning.

The second day after Shentu Yue was taken away, there were less than 10 hours left before the 48-hour limit.

At this time, the number of people arrested by the Supervisory Department had already exceeded 30, all of whom were prominent figures in Gansu Province!

That afternoon, the Supervisory Department released a piece of news to the outside world:

There was already evidence to prove that Shentu Yue was related to this case, so her detention would no longer be limited to 48 hours!

After this news spread, it immediately caused a huge uproar.

Although Shentu Yue had no official position or job, and did not hold any position within the Entering the World Society.

But her status was too important!

With the aptitude she had shown and the love the Red Dust Pavilion Master had for her, many people tacitly assumed that she was the Young Pavilion Master of the Red Dust Pavilion and the future President of the Entering the World Society.

For such a person to be accused of being related to the jailbreak incident, and even the Temple of Heaven assassination case, the influence was truly too serious!

The Entering the World Society finally stopped being silent, and overwhelming pressure surged toward the Supervisory Department and toward Li Fei!

That night, a man carrying a sword walked into a residence.

The man did not knock on the door, but pushed it open and entered directly, and invisible sword Qi cut the door lock.

From the first step he took into this residence, cold killing intent shrouded the entire courtyard!

The electric light in the room was turned on, and a voice came out:

"Brother Huang, what's wrong?"

The intruder's tone was icy: "You guaranteed to me at the beginning that this matter would absolutely not implicate my junior sister, so what do you say now?"

"."

The room was silent for a moment, "Brother Huang, come in and talk."

Huang Jin carried his sword and walked in.

Inside the room, Candle Three was sitting in a chair waiting for him.

After Huang Jin walked into the room, he used his virtual thoughts to trigger the sound-dampening array in the room, ensuring that the voices here would not spread out.

"Brother Huang, sit."

"No need."

Huang Jin was like a sharp sword about to be unsheathed, not concealing his sharpness in the slightest.

At this distance, facing a Possession stage Great Mage, he could take Candle Three's life with one sword strike!

Candle Three sighed: "Brother Huang, from beginning to end, Shentu Yue has never participated in any plotting; Li Fei and He Jian are just bluffing."

Huang Jin was not satisfied with such a statement: "What if the other party is deliberately framing her?"

Candle Three frowned: "Brother Huang, don't say that Shentu Yue really didn't participate in these things; even if she really committed some mistake, would your master sit idly by and watch her have an accident?"

Huang Jin shook his head: "Junior sister is innocent; she shouldn't be implicated. I demand that you close the net in advance."

"That's impossible!"

Candle Three refused flatly, "Brother Huang, Shentu Yue cannot have an accident; I hope you can calm down."

After Huang Jin looked at Candle Three for a moment, he said coldly: "Understood."

Then he turned and left.

Candle Three watched his departing back, his brows tightly locked.

After Huang Jin left this small courtyard, the man wearing the Confucian shirt walked out from behind the hall.

"My lord."

Candle Three hurriedly stood up and bowed.

"Is this chess piece about to be uncontrollable?"

The man in the Confucian shirt asked casually.

Candle Three thought for a while: "It shouldn't be."

"He betrayed his own sect long ago; could he suddenly go back on his word because of a woman?"

"Being heartless doesn't necessarily make one a true hero."

"My lord perhaps overestimates him."

Huang Jin returned to his residence alone.

He drew his sword in the courtyard; the sword body was like a pool of autumn water, bright and sharp.

Borrowing the moonlight, he looked at himself reflected on the blade, remembering what the first master who taught him to use a sword had told him when he first practiced swordsmanship:

Xu Xiaotian gritted his teeth and said: "I just want to break through the realm quickly and go back to get revenge!"

However, his talent was extremely high, and from the day he held a sword, he learned any move as soon as he learned it.

The sword in his hand seemed to be endowed with life, full of spirituality!

Huang Jin had never been hurt by his own sword edge, so he believed that only low-class swordsmen needed to worry about being hurt by their own swords.

A sword has two edges, but these two edges were perfectly controlled by him.

It wasn't until the day he made a huge mistake that Huang Jin suddenly realized.

That sentence the master said at the beginning was not only talking about sword moves, but also about the sword heart!

A sword heart that is too sharp will hurt itself...

Huang Jin had shown outstanding talent since he was a child, and after becoming a disciple of the Red Dust Pavilion, he had also been brilliant all the way, finally being accepted as a personal disciple by the Pavilion Master.

Business was going well, everyone envied him, and he always felt that there was nothing in this world that he couldn't do, and nothing that he couldn't get.

Unknowingly, Huang Jin's sword heart had lost its balance.

Five years ago, because of a quarrel with a fellow disciple after drinking, it finally evolved into a fight.

As a result, he failed to control his strength well and accidentally beat the person to death!

Even if one is a personal disciple of the Pavilion Master, accidentally beating a fellow disciple to death is something that must be paid for.

Just when Huang Jin fell into panic and anxiety, people from the New Heaven Society who had been observing him in the dark took the initiative to find him and helped him settle this matter.

Finally, the death of that fellow disciple was framed by the New Heaven Society on a demonic martial artist; the Red Dust Pavilion killed that demonic martial artist, and this matter was successfully resolved.

But Huang Jin's life trajectory was also completely changed because of this.

The New Heaven Society grasped this handle and made Huang Jin help them do things time and time again over the past five years.

At first, it was just some insignificant trifles, but later, the damage Huang Jin caused to the sect became greater and greater.

He could no longer turn back.

It was just that the New Heaven Society only knew that he had accidentally killed someone because of a quarrel with a fellow disciple, but they didn't know what he had quarreled with that fellow disciple about.

It was because of Shentu Yue.

At that time, Shentu Yue had not yet broken through to the Dao Foundation stage, and her strength was far inferior to what it was now.

At that time, Huang Jin was responsible for guiding Shentu Yue's martial arts, and he was deeply attracted by this girl who was like a bright moon.

He didn't know if he had been influenced by the 'Red Dust Heart-Washing Formula'.

Every disciple of the Red Dust Pavilion, after entering the world, would choose a way to temper their 'Red Dust Heart-Washing Formula'.

Huang Jin chose 'Entering the Dao through Emotion' to break through the 'Red Dust Heart-Washing Formula'.

He felt that Shentu Yue was his destiny.

He hadn't told anyone about this.

That fellow disciple was very close to Shentu Yue during that period, which made Huang Jin jealous.

That quarrel was just a fuse; Huang Jin had long wanted to teach that fellow disciple a lesson deep in his heart!

In the courtyard, Huang Jin sheathed his sword with a swish.

He often recalled that night five years ago, and then asked himself the same question:

Was his killing of that fellow disciple five years ago unintentional, or was it intentional?

People from the New Heaven Society felt that he wouldn't do anything out of line because of a woman, but to him, Shentu Yue was not only the woman he admired, but also the 'Dao' he sought!

Red Dust Heart-Washing, Entering the Dao through Emotion.

Huang Jin left his residence again.

"Marquis, Huang Jin requests an audience."

In the main courtyard of the Supervisory Department, Lu Wenxing suddenly found Li Fei and said to him.

"Huang Jin?"

"He is Shentu Yue's senior brother, and also a personal disciple of the Pavilion Master."

"Oh."

Li Fei remembered the swordsman who had challenged him at the banquet.

The other party seemed to be on the candidate list for the Wind and Cloud General Ranking, and his strength was not bad.

"Invite him over."

Li Fei said, and then had someone go call He Jian.

A moment later, Lu Wenxing led Huang Jin into the room.

He looked at Li Fei and He Jian, cupped his hands and bowed:

"I have met the Marquis of Jing'an, I have met Lord He."

"Please sit."

After Huang Jin sat down, Lu Wenxing walked out of the room, closing the door on his way out.

"If you have anything to say, you can say it now."

Li Fei did not exchange pleasantries with the other party, but said directly.

"The Entering the World Society and the New Heaven Society have always cooperated, but after the Temple of Heaven assassination case occurred, the Entering the World Society was eager to draw a clear line with the New Heaven Society, not wanting to be implicated."

Huang Jin also didn't talk nonsense, directly stating important information.

Li Fei and He Jian looked at each other, not expecting that they had really fished up a big fish!

The evidence regarding Shentu Yue's crime was actually fake news.

He Jian just wanted to use this to see the reactions of all parties and see if anyone would reveal flaws because of it.

He didn't expect that it would really attract a Huang Jin.

"Continue."

Li Fei said to Huang Jin.

"The New Heaven Society wants to suppress the power of the Entering the World Society in Gansu Province to take the opportunity to develop itself. At the same time, they also want to lead you astray, so they deliberately guided you step by step to investigate the Entering the World Society."

Huang Jin continued.

"Anything else? How do you know these things?"

Li Fei asked.

Huang Jin looked at him and said word by word:

"If you still want to know more inside information, you must first release Shentu Yue!"

"Is this your condition for exchange?"

"No, this is just the condition for us to cooperate together."

Huang Jin's eyes were sharp:

"You want to solve the case, and I want to get rid of the New Heaven Society; our goals are consistent."
