As dusk approached, a group of people walked openly on the road and came to the front of the Judgment Yuan Prison, which was only one street away from the headquarters of the Judgment Yuan.

"Stop!"

A guard dressed in the uniform of the Court of Adjudication walked up, stared at the group in front of him with a wary expression, and said coldly, "Who are you?" What are you doing here? ”

Tao Wan slowly walked out from behind the crowd and said lightly: "The old man was instructed by the Supreme Council to interrogate the suspect in the murder of Wang Qianjin. ”

The guard recognized Tao Wan and hurriedly bowed, but did not let him go, but stood in place and said: "In this case, please also ask Lord Tao to show the documents of the Supreme Council." ”

When Tao Wan heard this, he immediately frowned, and asked with displeasure, "What?" As the fifth seat of the Supreme Council, will the old man still falsely pass on the order of the Supreme Council? ”

The guard bent over and replied in a tone that was neither humble nor arrogant: "Lord Tao is angry, it's not that his subordinates don't believe in him.

It's just that there are several special prisoners in the prison now, and if there are no documents, the subordinates don't dare to advocate for people to enter. ”

"Bold! You dare to stop my lord even if you are a gatekeeper? ”

One of the attendants behind Tao Wan shouted angrily, apparently wanting to step forward and teach the guard a lesson.

Click!

As soon as the attendant raised his foot, the sound of machinery running on the wall instantly sounded.

"Gollum!"

In the face of more than a dozen hideous dragon hunting crossbows, a dense layer of cold sweat instantly broke out on the forehead of this attendant, and he swallowed saliva involuntarily, and his raised feet were suspended in mid-air, unable to advance or retreat.

"Stand down!"

Tao Wan turned and glared at the attendant, and shouted with a displeased expression.

"Yes!"

The attendant's eyes twitched, then he saluted respectfully and returned to the queue with his head bowed.

Seeing that the entourage had retreated, the dragon hunting crossbow on the wall still had no intention of turning around, and was still locked on Tao Wan and his party.

The sharp arrows reflected the cold light in the afterglow of dusk.

The guard had already straightened up at this time, looked at Tao Wan with a serious expression, and said, "Please show the relevant documents of the Supreme Council, Lord Tao." ”

Tao Wan turned his head, nodded with a smile, and said with a satisfied face: "Yes, it seems that Wang Shitong's management of the adjudication court is still in place, so the old man can rest assured." ”

The guard was unmoved, and said in a deep voice, "Please show the relevant documents to Lord Tao." ”

Seeing this, Tao Wan's eyes obviously flashed with shame, and he still had a kind smile on his face, and said, "Don't worry, since the old man is here, he will naturally have documents on him." ”

With that, he slowly reached into his arms, took out a neatly folded piece of paper, and handed it forward.

At the moment when he took out the documents, Tao Wan obviously felt that the dragon hunting crossbow on the wall had unlocked his lock, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Of course, he was sure to dodge the attack of the dragon hunting crossbow, but if he started at the gate, the movement of the battle would most likely reach the headquarters of the Inquisition, and it would not be good if Wang Shitong and Bai Mo were lured over.

Seeing that Tao Wan really took out the papers, the guard's complexion softened slightly.

Stretched out his hand to take the paper handed over by the other party, unfolded it and glanced at it, folded it and returned it to Tao Wan, nodded and said, "There is no problem with the pass." ”

As soon as the words fell, the mechanical sound sounded again, and the dragon hunting crossbows from before disappeared behind the wall.

At the same time, white-gold afterimages flashed in some hidden corners outside the prison.

Seeing this, Tao Wan's eyes couldn't help but flash a trace of imperceptible jealousy.

He hadn't even noticed these sentries before!

Thinking of this, Tao Wan unconsciously glanced at the guards in front of him, and finally knew why Yu Changjue had to go to great lengths to arrange such a thing.

The document he just took out was just a blank piece of paper, and the guard in front of him was the internal response that Yu Changjue had already planted in the prison of the Adjudication Yuan!

If it weren't for the guard's previous dedication to his duties that earned the trust of the others, he probably wouldn't have been able to deceive the prison gates.

"Where the responsibility lies, please forgive Master Tao."

The guard respectfully turned to the side and made a gesture of invitation to Tao Wan, who had regained his calm.

"Hmm."

Tao Wan replied lightly, and then entered the prison gate with his entourage.

In this way, relying on an impeccable performance, Tao Wan successfully broke through the first line of defense.

"Master Tao, this is the empty cell of success or failure."

Tao Wan looked at the cell in front of him and said to the entourage beside him: "You are just guarding outside, no matter what movement happens inside, no one is allowed to approach." ”

"Yes!"

These entourages were all Tao Wan's henchmen, so they naturally knew what was going to happen next, so they all responded and scattered around the cell.

Seeing this, Tao Wan didn't talk much nonsense, and walked into the cell where success or failure was held.

The door behind him gradually closed, and the room suddenly became dark.

Tao Wan moved the tip of his nose, smelled a strong smell of blood, and then looked up, only to find a bloody figure hanging in the center of a cell.

With the limited light in the room, Tao Wan judged that the other party should be a success or failure.

Success or Failure Sora was now miserable, his hands tied to the ceiling, his head hung in the air, and his gray hair mixed with dried blood was disorganized on his face.

Blood continued to pour out of the dense wounds on his body, mixed with sweat and soaked through his clothes, forming a pool of half-dried blood under his feet.

Although they had been prepared for a long time, Wang Shitong's madness obviously greatly exceeded their expectations.

Tao Wan looked at the success or failure in front of him who was tortured to an inhuman shape, and his face couldn't help but turn a little pale.

He was not frightened by the tragic situation of success or failure, but was worried that the other party would probably have confessed himself in the face of such torture.

At the same time, Tao Wan felt an inexplicable sense of happiness in his heart.

It's only been a day, and success or failure has already become like this, if they are one step late, maybe it will really be too late to extinguish it.

Thinking of this, Tao Wan's mood became more and more anxious, but before extinguishing the mouth, he still had to confirm how far Wang Shitong's interrogation had progressed.

"Success or failure."

Tao Wan walked up slowly, stopped a meter away from success or failure, and shouted in a calm tone.

Success or Failure moved for a moment, raised his head slightly, revealing a pair of haggard and tired eyes, and after seeing the appearance of the person who came, two terrifying lights suddenly erupted in his eyes.

Rao is Taowan has been through the wind and waves for a long time, but he was still slightly startled by the other party's eyes, and couldn't help but take half a step back.

Success or Failure's empty eyes were full of surprise, and he asked, "Is it you?" Are you here to save me? ”

The voice was as hoarse as sandpaper rubbing, but there was a clear sense of anticipation in the tone.

Tao Wan nodded subconsciously, and before he could speak, he saw a tear stain in the corner of his eye.

"You've finally come to my rescue! I knew that Wang Shitong lied to me! You will never give up on me! ”

Chengli Kong was obviously relieved, and said with tears in his eyes.

Tao Wan was keenly aware of the details of the other party's words, and couldn't help frowning, and asked in a cold tone, "How could Wang Shitong know about the relationship between us?" Have you already told the other person about that? ”

Success or failure was stunned, a trace of panic flashed in his eyes, and he couldn't help shaking his head and denying: "No, I didn't say anything." ”

Tao Wan glanced at Cheng Cheng or Failure deeply, and said lightly: "Since you didn't say anything, then I'm relieved." ”

Chengshi suddenly struggled, swinging like a salted fish, ignoring the wounds on his body that burst and gushed out a lot of blood.

"Help me! I really didn't betray you. ”

“......”

Tao Wan stared coldly at the success or failure of the bloody man, and was silent.

Success or Failure looked at each other's eyes, his heart continued to sink, and the range of struggle became smaller and smaller, and finally he was completely quiet.

"Whew! Call! Call! ”

Violent wheezing echoed in the cell, and the action just now had exhausted the already small amount of physical strength of Success or Failure.

"You're here to kill people?"

After a long while, Chengli asked in a difficult tone.

Tao Wan was silent for a moment, and replied: "I have seen Wang Shitong's methods, and I have also seen your reaction, I don't think you can keep your secret under this kind of torture." ”

Chengli gritted his teeth and asked unrelentingly: "Even if the matter of the accomplice is just Wang Shitong's speculation?" Even if I didn't name any of you at all? ”

“......”

"Hah! Ha! Hahaha! ”

Cheng Cheng or Failure looked at Tao Wan, who was speechless, and suddenly laughed, but his expression was indescribably desperate.

"Whew! I know. ”

The laughter stopped, Chengshi took a breath, lowered his head in dismay, and said pleadingly, "I can die, but for the sake of keeping a secret for you, can you do me a favor and save Yu'er from here." ”

As he spoke, Chengli raised his head again, and said with an anxious face, "Yu'er doesn't know about that matter at all, so it is absolutely impossible to give you out."

He's only charged with attempted murder, and with your abilities, getting him out should be just a gesture, right? ”

"Of course, it is not difficult to save the matter, but we can't arouse Wang Shitong's suspicion because of this matter."

Tao Wan's cold voice came, completely pushing Chengwei Kong into the abyss of despair.

"You ...... These bastards! ”

Cheng Failure stared at the blood-dripping eyes, and a bloodstain also appeared at the corner of his mouth, and his expression was indescribably hideous and terrifying.

"If this is your last word, the old man has already accepted it."

Tao Wan slowly raised his hand and stretched out towards Chengshikong, "Now, you can die." ”

Seeing that he was about to die at Tao Wan's command, there was a sudden noise outside the cell.

Immediately afterwards, without waiting for Tao Wan to react, the gate behind him flew over.

"Who are you?"

Tao Wan stepped back, letting go of the whizzing metal gate, looking at the man in black outside the door, his face was gloomy and almost dripping.

Yan Hua was wearing a black robe, ignoring Tao Wan's meaning at all, looking up at Chengwukong's complicated expression, and asked with a smile, "How is it?" I'm not late, am I? ”

Success or Failure looked at Yan Hua blankly, and the dim light outside the door shone into the cell from behind the other party, making his desperate heart rise with a light called hope.
