Chapter 194: Investigation
Chen Lei was taken out of the interrogation room, and the three people in the room fell silent for a while, obviously they were all waiting for Shi Qianji's decision. At this time, Shi Qianji opened his mouth and asked the two people next to him: "Elder Ben Lei, how do you think this matter should be handled?"
"Boss, this matter is a bit strange, we haven't completely found out the truth of the matter yet, I don't dare to say the specific way to deal with it, but I think that although this disciple looks like he is being controlled, we haven't found out about him before, and his emotional performance can be disguised. But if he really pretended to be he would have said that he didn't remember what happened at the time, and now he took the initiative to say the picture in his memory, obviously putting himself in a disadvantageous situation, but there was no evidence in his body to prove that he had ever been controlled, so I suggested that he be locked up here for a few more days for a few more days, and wait until the matter is thoroughly investigated and understood. Ben Lei said expressionlessly, giving people the feeling of saying a very simple little thing that has nothing to do with him.
"What Elder Ben Lei said is reasonable, what is your opinion, Bai Lao?" Shi Qianji agreed with Ben Lei's opinion, and then turned around to ask Bai Lao's opinion.
"Huang Wen is my apprentice, no one is more sad than me when he dies, Chen Lei, this child I also know, he is a child of a simple peasant family in the villages around Lingshan, kind-hearted and loyal and honest. If there is any conspiracy on his part, I dare not agree, although the current signs are not enough to prove his innocence, but I still think that this child did it without his control. "Bai Lao has some understanding of Chen Lei, so he is more assured of his character.
"In addition, this Chen Lei originally came to the Lingshan Sect with Gu Yue, and the two seem to be very good friends, I think the children taught by Brother Xu should not be friends with people with unscrupulous hearts. So I suggest that even if we want to punish this child later, the punishment for this child should be lighter, so that we will not have misunderstandings when we face Gu Yue and Brother Xu in the future. “
"What the two elders said has some truth, and I can't think of a specific good way to do this for a while, so let's do this for the time being, and wait for me to investigate in detail before making a decision. Shi Qianji thought about it again and again, and did not give a specific verdict, but asked everyone to go back first, and wait for him to investigate clearly before making a decision.
After sending off the head Shi Qianji and Bai Lao, Elder Ben Lei entered the cell where Chen Lei was held alone, and looked at Chen Lei inside through the prison door. At this time, Chen Lei was sitting in the corner, curled up with his legs in his hands, his head buried in his knees, looking at the ground with dull and empty eyes, and repeating the words "I killed the master" in his mouth.
"This cell must be strictly guarded, I don't allow anyone to contact her until I say anything, usually be kind to him, take care of her. Ben Lei explained to the disciples who were guarding the cell on the side.
"Yes, Elder. The guard disciple on the side replied respectfully.
After the explanation, Ben Lei left, and now everything in the Lingshan Sect is recovering and rebuilding, and there are still many things that he needs to be responsible for, and he is usually very busy.
A day passed in a blink of an eye, and after nightfall, Shi Qianji was in his room looking at the investigation report that had been sent to his desk. It was written the results of the investigation into Chen Lei's incident, and the analysis of the cause of death of the deceased found at the scene said that the cause of death of everyone was killed by this sect exercise, and there was no sign of otherworldly biological energy remaining.
Shi Qianji looked at the results of this investigation, his fingers tapping on the table and falling into deep thought. Under normal circumstances, even if they are controlled by otherworldly creatures, there should be energy residues of otherworldly creatures on the deceased after killing, and now this result shows that Chen Lei probably did not kill these people after being controlled, otherwise this result cannot be explained.
After thinking for a long time, Shi Qianji shouted to the people outside the door, "Someone." “
"Boss. A Lingshan disciple came in from outside the door and respectfully saluted Shi Qianji.
"Go, Elder Ben Lei called. Shi Qianji gave an order to the comer.
"Yes!" the messenger ordered to exit the room and deliver the letter. Shi Qianji in the room fell into thought again.
Ben Lei's room is next to the Lingshan Sect's cell, and this is also the place where the Lingshan Sect's Punishment Precepts are located. Ben Lei was dealing with the affairs of the Lingshan faction, and suddenly someone said that the head of the house invited him over, Ben Lei knew that it should be Chen Lei's matter that had a result, so he didn't stop and immediately rushed to Shi Qianji's room with the visitor.
Just as Ben Lei was rushing to Shi Qianji's residence, he suddenly saw a figure running towards the outer mountain at a very fast speed, and Ben Lei immediately stopped this person when he saw this: "Stop! Who is sneaking around here so late." ”
The person who came to see Ben Lei was stunned for a moment, and said with some nervousness for a while: "Elder Hui, I am a disciple of Xuanmen, my name is Li Zhishan, and my good brother who came to Lingshan with me died in the battle this time, I am in a hurry to rush back with his ashes and relics to inform his family, so I am a little anxious." ”
"This is an important place in the inner mountains, no matter how important things are, you can't run around unruly, do you ask for leave? Ben Lei did not move, and severely reprimanded the young disciple in front of him.
"Elder Hui, I just approved the leave, so I'm a little anxious, you see this is a pass. Li Zhishan took out a piece of paper from the package in his arms and handed it to Ben Lei.
Ben Lei opened the paper and checked it carefully, it was indeed a leave pass, so he returned the paper to the young disciple in front of him and said: "Remember, there are rules in the inner mountain, I will spare you this time, and the next time I am caught unruly, I will stay in the prison cell for a few days." Let's go, don't be so impetuous. ”
"Yes! The elder's lesson is that I will pay attention next time. Li Zhishan packed his things, saluted Ben Lei, and then turned around and went down the mountain.
After this small episode, Ben Lei continued to move forward and soon came to Shi Qianji's room, Ben Lei sat opposite Shi Qianji after entering the room, waiting for Shi Qianji's instructions.
"Elder Ben Lei, I'm really sorry to invite you here so late, you've been so tired these days. Shi Qianji said more than Benlei.
"The head doesn't have to be like this, it's my duty to do things for the Lingshan faction, not to mention tiredness. Ben Lei said to Shi Qianji.
"Elder Ben Lei, this time the vitality of the Lingshan Sect has been greatly damaged, and many disciples of the Inner Mountain and Outer Mountains have died on this battlefield, we must not only be punished, but also rewarded. This time, I ask you to formulate a corresponding reward system for the Lingshan disciples who have paid in this battle, and give everyone some rewards. Some money and food were distributed to the families of the deceased.
"Don't worry, I know this matter in my heart, in the past few days, I have been counting and recording the information of all Lingshan disciples overnight, and I will give you a perfect explanation when the time comes. Ben Lei also remembered this in his heart, and he had counted more than half of the information in the past few days.
"I also have a list here, so you can refer to it. I think the reward for these people is like this...... In this way...... "Shi Qianji and Elder Ben Lei began to discuss the specific details of the reward and punishment system.
