Chapter 1007: Purge
It has been nearly three days since I stayed at Shen Chang'an's house to receive training, and during this period, various major events have continued to occur in the outside world, the most talked-about of which is that the Imperial Bureau has recently launched a purge against ghost slaves.
This operation was led by the Imperial Bureau, with the full cooperation of the provincial sub-bureaus, and an extremely fierce attack was carried out against the ghost slave organizations hiding in the provinces of the country.
Although it is called a purge operation, I personally know that this is the imperial bureau's retaliation against the affairs of the war zone, and compared with the last purge operation, this purge will be more ruthless and more thorough. It is said that the sixty-four provinces in the country have all made great achievements, and the ghost slave organization has also suffered an unprecedented severe blow in this operation!
And such a dazzling record naturally made the authority and reputation of the imperial bureau, which had recently taken a sharp turn, have been greatly restored, and now those opposing voices who have opinions on the imperial bureau have suddenly become dumb, and the imperial bureau has returned to the previous order.
This purge operation can be said to have been fruitful, but I am happy about this result, but I also have some guesses of my own - could this operation be so smooth because the Imperial Bureau has received some reliable information?
Although the last operation was considered smooth, it was far less successful than this time, and the reason for this was because the ghost slaves were hiding after hearing the rumors, and it was not easy for the emperor to find a hiding place, after all, the ghost slaves were not ordinary fugitives.
However, the efficiency of this purge operation was surprisingly high, and the work was actually completed within two days, which can't help but make me wonder, could it be that the night owl revealed a lot of information about the ghost slaves to the emperor in the prison, so that the emperor could carry out such an effective attack on the ghost slaves in a short period of time?
I think this is very likely, because the night owl is the only high-level person alive in the hands of the Imperial Bureau, and the other ghost slaves either committed suicide before being arrested, or let the ghost master kill them remotely, and the Imperial Bureau has no chance to ask for information from them.
Even if there are a few fish that slip through the net, they are all miscellaneous fish among the ghost slaves, and they can't provide any effective information at all.
On the other hand, the night owl, as the deputy master of the Hell Gate, it couldn't be easier to know some information about the hiding place of the ghost slaves, I don't believe that he didn't get out of their mouths during the days when he was on business with Qianyue and other ghost slaves from other provinces.
Besides, Qing Ling is also a high-level among the ghost masters, even if it is isolated, there must be a lot of things to know, including the hiding place of the ghost slave.
I think it's very likely that the Imperial Bureau got this information from the mouth of the night owl, so that it could sweep through the ghost slave organizations everywhere with a thunderous force and deal a heavy blow to the ghost slaves.
If that's the case, it means that the Night Stalker has done a great job, and he will most likely be pardoned for it, thus saving his life... It's just that all of this is my conjecture and can't be verified for the time being.
"I don't know what happened to the night owl, there is no letter from it." I was worried.
In all fairness, I don't want the Night Stalker to die like this, but my power is so limited that I can't even meet him without revealing our relationship.
"When Brother Yuan comes back and asks for news from him, he should know a little bit about the situation." I thought to myself.
Through these two days of contact, I learned that Jiang Yuan and Li Yuxin both worked in the interrogation department of the Imperial Bureau, mainly responsible for interrogating and detaining prisoners, of course, these prisoners were not ordinary prisoners, they were all cultivators.
There are many departments similar to the interrogation department in the Imperial Bureau, and all the members of the Imperial Bureau who work in them are members of the Imperial Bureau, and because of the high salary and treatment, there are a large number of members of the Imperial Bureau who are squeezing their heads in.
Originally, the work of the interrogation department was not around the clock on weekdays, but due to the purge operation, Gangwon can be said to be extremely busy in the past two days, and I haven't seen him since the last time I saw Gangwon.
However, in terms of time, the purge is now over, and Gangwon will almost be able to return, and if nothing else, I will be able to see him tonight.
"Ye Yan, how are you doing?"
Just as I was sitting on the sofa, thinking about how to talk to him about the night owl when Jiang Yuan came back, Shen Changan's voice suddenly came from behind me.
"Mentor!" Hearing this, I immediately stood up and immediately smiled: "It's a bit better than yesterday, and now I can move a piece of paper." ”
Just yesterday, I successfully moved the confetti placed on the smooth desktop through the air, and I didn't use any power like ghost energy and spiritual power, but purely moved with the power of space.
The power of this space is mysterious, but in fact, it is to use one's soul to act on the "source" in the space, so as to affect the space, and the "force" that affects the space is what we call the power of space.
It's just that my current space power is very small, and although I have made some progress today, I can only move a piece of paper the size of a bottle cap, and the range of movement is limited at one time.
"Yes, practice more recently, don't forget this feeling, and ask me if you don't understand anything." Shen Changan said with a smile: "This mainly depends on your own comprehension, and outsiders can't get involved too much." ”
"Hmm. I understand..."As soon as my words fell, there was a fluctuation at the door, and then Ehara, who looked a little tired, dragged his heavy body in.
"Mentor, I'm back."
After coming in, Ehara nodded at me, said hello to me, and then sat down next to me and sighed, "Hey, I've had too many things in the past two days, and I haven't come back until now." ”
"What's the matter, have the ghost slaves captured in the past two days come up with anything from their mouths for interrogation again?" Shen Changan asked.
"No, but the work continues, and I have to go over in the evening to continue the trial." Jiang Yuan said helplessly: "But for now, these ghost slaves are all miscellaneous fish, and they know too little information." ”
The prison of the Imperial Bureau is unique, and it can isolate all fluctuations in the spiritual power of the outside world, so as long as the ghost slaves can be escorted in, the ghost master cannot kill them remotely.
Because of this, some of the ghost slaves who have been successfully captured are still being interrogated in the interrogation room, but it seems that there is not much progress at present.
"Brother Yuan, I heard that the night owl is the deputy master of the Hell Gate, and he is in a high position in the Hell Gate, and he must know a lot of things, have you interrogated it properly?" I asked without moving, naturally trying to find out what situation the night owl was in.
"You said the night owl." Hearing this, Jiang Yuan's face showed a sudden expression, and then replied: "Our interrogation department has interrogated it a long time ago, and more than once, but it didn't ask for too much useful information, and that guy is very tight-mouthed. ”
"That's it..."Listening to Jiang Yuan's words, I was worried, if the night owl didn't tell me some useful information, could the Imperial Bureau let him go?
Just thinking about it in his heart, he heard Ehara continue: "By the way, it is said that the verdict against the night owl has come out this morning, and he has committed many crimes such as crimes against humanity, and he will be punished for several crimes. ”
"The Imperial Bureau has decided that tomorrow morning at eight o'clock, the night owl will be executed!"
