Chapter 57: The Problem of the Power of the Bloodline
Hearing what the villain said, Zhao Hongwei looked back at the two people standing behind him again, and after confirming something, he turned around.
"Don't tell the truth, do you?" asked Zhao Hongwei.
"I'm telling the truth! It's me hired by the third girl of the Gu family!" Seeing that Zhao Hongwei didn't believe it, this gangster said with a glare.
"Reason. Zhao Hongwei said two words.
"Hmph, then who knows to go, just ask me to kill people and give money, what reason do I care. The villain sneered, "I heard that your eldest brother was this Gu Nan's old friend, but I don't know why he dumped others, and he may be hated because of this." ”
After the villain's words, Zhao Hongwei clenched his fists, and one of the people standing behind him put his hand on Zhao Hongwei's shoulder and patted it gently.
Zhao Hongwei resisted the urge to punch this gangster to death, and besides, what this guy said, Zhao Hongwei didn't believe it in a punctuation mark.
Zhao Hongwei didn't care about the little between Zhao Hongming and Gu Nan, but it didn't mean that he didn't know anything about it. After the two of them talked about the matter, except for the fact that the eldest son and the second son of the Gu family had some emotions, this matter was basically passed peacefully, how could it be that it was turned out at this juncture five years later?
It's not a grudge in the first place, but I remember this grudge for too long, right?
When Zhao Hongwei saw the confession of this gangster, he felt that this guy deliberately sowed discord, a girl from the prime minister's family, who bought murder to interfere with the prince's wedding ceremony, which is really unreasonable.
But unfortunately, Zhao Hongwei didn't have any evidence, so he could only come to the dungeon and confront this villain face again.
"I'll give you another chance, think about it. Resist the urge to beat this guy, Zhao Hongwei said.
"Your Highness, I've already told the truth, so don't force me anymore. This gangster knew very well in his heart that Zhao Hongwei had no evidence in his hand to prove that he was lying, so he still insisted on his statement.
"Well, thank you for your 'honesty'. Zhao Hongwei gritted his back molars and nodded slowly.
According to the normal case-handling process, after obtaining the confession of the prisoner, whether it is true or not, the official in charge of the investigation of the criminal department will investigate and collect evidence according to the confession, unless there is direct evidence to prove that the prisoner lied, or after the investigation according to the clues provided by the confession, there is sufficient evidence to overturn the confession. Otherwise, the confession of the offender is the most direct evidence presented in court.
But after the criminal department got the confession of this gangster at that time, it felt a little tricky. According to the meaning of the confession, this case involves the love-hate entanglement between the daughter of the big official family and the prince of the royal family.
What was going on between the royal family and the Gu family at the beginning, the Criminal Department definitely didn't know, and they couldn't directly ask about this kind of thing at that time. had to report it layer by layer, and finally sent it to Zhao Zongyang.
After Zhao Zongyang read the criminal department's recital and this confession, he was almost angry. What is this called? It's too obvious to bite at will, does this villain take everyone for a fool?
Because Zhao Hongxing was still asleep, Zhao Zongyang handed over this matter to Zhao Hongwei to deal with.
Zhao Hongwei, who was ordered to do things, also had no clue about this case. The reason why the Criminal Department did not follow this confession was because they could not go to Gu's house to investigate Gu Nan based on this confession alone. In addition to investigating Gu Nan in person, the people of the Criminal Department had no way to find evidence from other places to prove that this gangster was lying.
This guy seems to have appeared out of thin air, he has no identity background or anything, and he can't find anything useful.
As a hired killer, it's normal that his identity would be cleared so cleanly, but it adds a lot of difficulties to the investigation of the case. Until now, I haven't even found out which killer organization he is.
Although this villain said that he was a lone killer, no one believed that this guy could eliminate his identity on his own.
Now even if Zhao Hongwei comes to investigate the case, he doesn't dare to take this confession and go to Gu's house and Gu Nan to ask if this is the case. Even if you really go, how can you ask after you go? Ask directly: "Miss Gu, are you hiring a murderer because you still like my brother?"
Of course he couldn't do this, he was afraid that the Gu family would blow him out as a fool. He could only come here in person and question this villain face to face.
Strictly speaking, this is the villain who just learned the gossip out of nowhere, so he casually made up a reason to blame others.
Just looking at this guy's attitude, I guess I can't ask anything useful.
Even if you can't ask anything, there's no need to stay in this stinking place. Zhao Hongwei stood up, turned around and walked out.
And the two people who came in with him followed Zhao Hongwei out again without saying a word.
"Warden!" Zhao Hongwei called the cell boss as he walked out of the cell.
"Serve this honest man well, and don't let him die. Zhao Hongwei commanded.
"Xia Guan understands. The warden bowed his head and obeyed.
Doesn't this guy want to die now? In this dungeon of the Ministry of Punishment, there is a way to make people want to die even more, so let him enjoy the pain of being alive for a few days.
——————————
"I thought you'd have to sleep a few more days. After Zhao Hongxing was full, he came to the imperial study to find Zhao Zongyang, and Zhao Zongyang, who was watching the folds, saw Zhao Hongxing's first sentence was this.
"I ...... Have you been disappointed?" Zhao Hongxing asked as he saluted.
"Sit down. Zhao Zongyang didn't pay attention to Zhao Hongxing's poor mouth, but asked him to sit down first.
Today, Zhao Hongxing came by himself.
"Do you remember what you did before you fainted?" After Zhao Hongxing sat down, Zhao Zongyang asked.
"I don't remember very clearly," Zhao Hongxing replied, "but there is one thing that really impresses me." ”
"Oh, what's the matter?" asked Zhao Zongyang.
"Daddy, does the power of our family's bloodline have anything like 'rampage'?" Zhao Hongxing scratched his face and asked.
What is "rampage"? Zhao Zongyang said that he had never heard of this word.
Zhao Hongxing thinks about it, this is a word that has only been used in his previous life since modern times to indicate the violence caused by the loss of control, and there should be no such usage in this world.
Immediately, Zhao Hongxing described to Zhao Zongyang the abnormal state that happened to him that day.
The bloodline that is completely uncontrolled and runs on its own, the powerful momentum that suddenly erupts from the bloodline, the reason that is constantly impacted by the nameless anger, and the strange consciousness that the desire to kill is getting stronger and stronger. After Zhao Hongxing said these things, Zhao Zongyang fell directly into silence.
He hadn't heard of anything like this with the power of the bloodline.
Listening to the phenomenon described by Zhao Hongxing, it is like the power of the bloodline that should be artificially controlled, and suddenly has a sense of self, which can not only operate on its own, but also burst out with a power far higher than its own strength, and will convert all the reason of this person into the desire to kill.
Why do you sound so fond of the exercises practiced by the crooked ways of the evil sects? This is a bloodline that has been passed down from generation to generation for nearly a thousand years, so it can't be that something is wrong with their generation, right?
Zhao Zongyang was a little uncertain in his heart, he planned to go to the ancestral hall of the imperial tomb tonight, and read all the history books left by his ancestors to see if there had been such a situation before.
"Do you know what caused this suddenly?" At the beginning, when Zhao Zongyang asked the general about the situation at the scene, when he heard Zhao Hongxing burst out with a fierce momentum that was more fierce than the upper nine, and at the same time he was fighting with the upper ninefold master, he guessed that Zhao Hongxing must have made some unknown changes in his bloodline.
What level Zhao Hongxing is, Zhao Zongyang is still very clear in his heart, and listening to the meaning of the general's words, this kind of bloodline change can actually allow Zhao Hongxing to live a few moves with the master of the upper ninefold, so he was still looking forward to it
However, Zhao Zongyang didn't expect that this change was uncontrollable, and it seemed to be dangerous.
Even if the change is uncontrollable, let's first understand the premise of the change.
"Uh, it seems to have something to do with the guy called Facewalker?" Zhao Hongxing thought for a moment and said uncertainly.
"Facewalker, is that the guy who claims to be an accomplice to the murderer?" asked Zhao Zongyang.
"Yes, yes, that's him. Zhao Hongxing nodded yes.
This name is not the first time Zhao Zongyang has heard of it, he has already learned it when he learned about the situation from Le Aya and Hongyi before. It's just that Zhao Zongyang has never heard of such a number one person on the mainland, and there is no way to check the news related to this faceless walker.
"Why do you think this change in the bloodline is related to this facewalker?" Zhao Zongyang didn't know why Zhao Hongxing thought so.
"Because it's this kind of change, it only happened when I came into contact with the guy's internal force. Zhao Hongxing recalled it well and replied.
Indeed, when Zhao Hongxing confronted the Facewalker, the power of the bloodline in his body was fine, but when he took the palm of the guy and touched the internal force, the bloodline suddenly started to work on its own.
Hearing Zhao Hongxing say this, Zhao Zongyang muttered even more in his heart.
Is it even possible that the blood of Yan will be mobilized by other people's internal forces to operate on its own? Zhao Zongyang even deepened the idea of going to the ancestral hall of the Imperial Mausoleum tonight and carefully looking through the history books.
"Daddy......" Zhao Hongxing looked at Zhao Zongyang, who was frowning, and was a little panicked, "I won't have any problems, right?"
Even if something really goes wrong with you, I don't know right now. Zhao Zongyang said helplessly in his heart, this is the first time he has seen this kind of thing, what went wrong He is as confused as Zhao Hongxing.
"It's okay, the doctor said, you're healthy. I don't know if I can't let my son fall into a panic, Zhao Zongyang comforted: "Don't think about it, let's take a good rest, eat and drink more and relax." Hey, I heard that you promised to take Le Aya to Wenfanglou to watch the show? Go tonight, I'll get you the money. ”
Are you comforting me, or are you leaving it here for hospice care? Zhao Hongxing was a little crying and laughing, he remembered that in the TV series in his previous life, doctors loved to say this to terminally ill patients.
"Daddy, who is that facewalker, what is the purpose of that organization's coming to the capital?" Zhao Hongxing then asked, he wanted to know who this guy who suddenly popped out of the crowd was.
"This ...... In fact, it is still under investigation, you can rest assured, there will be news soon. Zhao Zongyang's words were purely to comfort Zhao Hongxing, this guy was originally rootless and shadowless, and he was also a master of the upper ninefold, even if his whereabouts were really checked, it would be quite difficult to deal with it when he wanted to catch him.
"But, Le Aya's ......" Zhao Hongxing was a little worried about Le Aya, because this guy made it clear that he wanted to kill the little girl.
"Don't worry, the old man already knows about this situation, and he will stay by Le Aya's side until he catches that facewalker. Zhao Zongyang said.
This is true, when the old man heard that someone was going to kill his disciple, the princess of the capital, his nose almost lost his breath.
"I thought that there would be no such small people in the capital, but I didn't think that it really made Her Royal Highness the princess almost in danger, which is really a dereliction of duty by the old man, and I am really sorry for the trust of the prince of the capital city in me. From today onwards, the old man will not leave the princess half a step again, please rest assured. This is what Mr. Cang said in front of Zhao Zongyang after he knew that Le Aya was in distress.
Zhao Zongyang felt guilty in his heart, Mr. Cang just said it to Zhao Zongyang. The old man thought that the capital was very safe, but he didn't expect that there would be dangerous people who came to the capital and killed the princess of the capital, so is the security of the capital still reliable?
Zong Yang couldn't refute it after being secretly reprimanded by Mr. Cang, so he had to scold the commander of the patrol battalion and the order of the household department in charge of population investigation to relieve his anger.
Zhao Hongxing was a little happy when he heard Zhao Zongyang say this. This means that in the future, there will be a nine-fold bodyguard around you at any time, and the safety factor is really skyrocketing.
After thinking about it, does this also mean that when I took Le Aya to Wenfang Building tonight, there would be another person?
Zhao Hongxing secretly pinched his fingers, himself, Le Aya, Hongyi, Zhao Zhongling plus the old man Cang, the consumption of five people at once was equivalent to half a month's pocket money.
With a smile, Zhao Hongxing rubbed his hands and continued to Zhao Zongyang.
"Daddy, if you just said you wanted to get me money, does it count?"
