Volume 1: The Eve of Upheaval Chapter 46: Cross-examination of the Parties
"By the way, where is the person who found the body?"
Yang Qianfeng turned his words around, and turned his head to look at Xu Pingyu.
"Huh?" Xu Pingyu's expression froze slightly, and then he immediately reacted, turned his head to look behind him, raised his voice slightly, and shouted, "Chen Yu, Xu Xing, Chen Nan, the three of you come here." ”
"Director. ”
Xu Pingyu's voice fell, and I saw three young people two short and one tall from a hundred meters away immediately separated from the crowd, lifting their breath, starting, and sprinting in one go, but after two or three breaths, they came to the front, arched their hands at Xu Pingyu, and said goodbye.
"Mr. Yang has something to ask you. ”
When Xu Pingyu faced Yang Qian, an old face was so smiling that he was about to squeeze out of his folds, and now facing his subordinates, he instantly put away his smile, put on a serious face, nodded reservedly, and looked in the direction of Yang Qian.
"Mr. Yang, excuse me. ”
After receiving Xu Pingyu's instructions, Chen Nan and the three of them hurriedly turned sideways to Yang Qian, and then stood aside respectfully with their hands down, quietly waiting for Yang Qian to ask questions.
"Tell me more about the process of your contact with the Ghost Gate. ”
Yang Qian glanced at Chen Nan and asked directly.
"The situation at that time was probably like this," Chen Nan and the other two made a simple eye contact, and after confirming each other, they took a step forward and opened the chatterbox, "Chen Yu and Xu Xing and I were investigating a case at that time, oh, it was the case of the No. 81 compound in Longcheng, according to the clues we had at the time, the suspect in the No. 81 compound in Longcheng was locked, and the last haunted area of the deacon of the Ghost Gate Pass was near here." ”
"Go on. ”
Hearing this, Yang Qian frowned. The case of the quarry has no clue, and the incident in Xiaohezi Village has no eyebrows, and now I have heard the case of the No. 81 compound in Longcheng...... According to Yang Qian's previous memory, the case of this so-called Longcheng No. 81 compound has not yet been resolved. The Ghost Gate Pass is like a fog that cannot be dispersed, lingering in the sky above the land of Huaxia, covering Yang Qian's heart with a layer of sorrow, is the end of the world coming?
"The three of us were the people who handled the case in the No. 81 compound in Longcheng, so as soon as we got the news, we hurried to this vicinity. Chen Nan naturally didn't know what Yang Qian was thinking, and he didn't notice the strange look on Yang Qian's face at this time, but said to himself, "We searched around here for about three hours, and we didn't find the slightest trace of the ghost six. ”
"Ghost Compass?"
A trace of doubt flashed on Yang Qian's face.
Seeing this, Chen Nan immediately understood, quickly took out a purple compass from the backpack on his back, and handed it to Yang Qian's hand, "Mr. Yang, please see, this is the ghost compass." ”
"Your ancestor was a compass maker?"
Yang Qian took the ghost compass in his hand and played with it, and handed it back to Chen Nan, and when Chen Nan reached out to take the compass, he suddenly asked without a clue. Yang Qian felt that after he asked this sentence, Chen Nan's outstretched hand stiffened for no reason.
"Mr. Yang actually knows the compass maker?" Chen Nan's face flashed with a different color, and then, he quickly noticed the inappropriateness in his words, and quickly explained to Yang Qian, "I didn't mean that, mainly because there are too few people who know the compass maker now...... So Mr. Jian actually knew that the compass maker was a little embarrassed......"
"Compass maker, corpse chaser, paper maker......" Yang Qian's voice sounded slowly, "The compass maker should only be left in the Chen clan of Jin Province, who are you Chen Ruxian?"
"It's my father. Do you know my father?"
"Four years ago, I had a comrade-in-arms with Ling Zun in the ghost caves of northern Hubei Province. ”
"Northern Hubei Ghost Cave...... Northern Hubei ghost cave ......" Chen Nan chattered twice in a row, and suddenly his face changed greatly, and a frightened expression suddenly hung on his face, "You are the king of people?"
"Contemptible Yang Qian. Yang Qian calmly explained, "Go on." ”
"Yes...... It's ......" Chen Nan responded, but his attitude was obviously much more restrained. And Chen Yu and Xu Xing, who were standing on either side of Chen Nan, also hurriedly straightened their waists, like pines and cypresses under the scorching sun.
At that time, the ghost compass suddenly reacted, and the number of revolutions of the hand reached 3,000 scales in an instant, and it turned quickly for four or five seconds before it slowly stopped. Then, we followed the guidance of this ghost compass and traced the ghost qi all the way to this Xiaohezi village. ”
"When we arrived, Oni-Six was just about to leave......"
"Wait, did you see the murderer's face?" Yang Qian interrupted the conversation box that Chen Nan had already opened and expressed the doubts in his heart.
"This ......" Chen Nan froze for a moment, and glanced at Yang Qian dumbfounded, "It seems that there is no ......"
"Then how can you be sure that what you see in Xiaohezi Village is Ghost Six?"
Yang Qian sent out a soul torture.
"This ......"
Chen Nan suddenly became expectant.
"And you asked him about his identity?"
"Nor did ...... At that time, he saw that the three of us had turned around and ran, and did not give me a chance to wait for questioning. ”
"That's what kind of characteristics does he have in his dress that distinguishes him from other ghost gates at a glance?"
"There is no ...... either"
Cold sweat broke out on the foreheads of Chen Nan and the three of them, and even Xu Pingyu's face was not very good when he looked at the three of them at this time.
"Then tell me what is the basis for your judgment?
"At that time, we were following Ghost Six to this vicinity, so when we arrived at Xiaohezi Village and found the figure of the person in the Ghost Gate, we ......"
Speaking of this, Chen Nan couldn't say any more, so he could only make some noises.
"So when you see this figure, you don't see the face clearly, you don't ask about your identity, and you don't check the details, so you subjectively make assumptions and conclude that this person is the ghost six?"
As he spoke, Yang Qian's voice unconsciously rose up, and every word faintly carried a bit of majesty.
"We know what to do. ”
Probably unable to withstand the pressure on Yang Qian's body, Chen Nan sweated like rain, so he had to kneel down on the spot.
"It's not a question of who's right and who's wrong. Yang Qian sighed, only feeling that the next road to be taken by the Buddhist Dao Alliance was a long way to go, "That's it, I don't blame you." You have only been down the mountain for a few months, and the investigation of the case is naturally not as good as those official veterans. ”
Speaking of this, Yang Qian turned his head to look at Chen Shuye and instructed, "Fourth, when this is over, after returning to Huiji, you remember to remind me that when the time comes, you must talk to Lao Li and say that the general direction of the Buddhism and Taoism Alliance must change, otherwise in this increasingly severe form, you only know how to fight and don't know how to investigate the case, and sooner or later you will be swept away by the waves of the times." ”
Chen Shuye also understood the importance of this matter, and immediately nodded solemnly.
