Subsequently, Ji Xiao, Lu Xiaoyin and Qiushui rushed to the City Lord's Mansion together, because they had been here before, and this time they came in smoothly, and they saw Ning Hao in prison after only one pass.

From the outside, Ning Hao has not been guilty, but he is slightly embarrassed in prison.

Seeing the three of them come in, Ning Hao sighed slightly, "Why are you here?" ”

Qiushui was anxious, and when he heard this, he said, "Ah Hao, they didn't bully you, right?" ”

Ning Hao shook his head, "No, this is the City Lord's Mansion, and the City Lord is optimistic about Xiaoxiao, so naturally they will not allow them to lynch me." ”

"That's good." Qiushui breathed a sigh of relief, and then said: "What did you say was going on at the time, how did you say it, he was suddenly poisoned to death?" ”

Ning Hao seemed to recall that scene, and the corners of his mouth hooked up with a touch of mockery, "I said that he took poison by himself, do you believe it?" ”

"What?" Ji Xiao and the three of them were all taken aback.

Ning Hao stared at him and said, "At first, I couldn't understand why he did this, even if he was bought by the Seven Killing Palace, he wouldn't risk his life to frame me, right?" I remembered later that when I entered his office, he was talking to someone on the phone, and I vaguely heard him talking about his grandson. ”

"Could it be that his grandson was captured by the Seven Killing Palace?" Autumn water was stunned.

Lu Xiaoyin said: "Impossible, he definitely has more than one grandson, how can he exchange his life for his grandson's life?" ”

If it is said that the children are almost the same, the grandchildren are a generation apart, and the people in the big family are indifferent, plus there are many children and grandchildren, some of them are inconspicuous, and they may not even be able to call out their names when they see them.

"But he's running out of time." Ning Hao said suddenly, "As far as I know, he only has ten years left to live. And I've heard him mention before that his branch is a weak member of the family, but he has a grandson who is quite talented, and if they want their branch to prosper, they have to rely on that child for great hope. ”

In this way, it is not difficult to explain why the director used his life to frame Ning Hao.

Ji Xiao felt tricky, "In this case, how can we prove your innocence?" ”

Ning Hao shook his head, he had been in prison for several hours, and he had already thought clearly, there was no solution to this matter at all, no one would believe that the director had taken poison by himself, and he was guilty of this crime.

He suddenly took off his space ring, handed it to Ji Xiao, and said, "You give this to my brother." ”

"You ......" Ji Xiao subconsciously retracted his hand, not daring to pick up the space ring handed over by Ning Hao.

Ning Hao smiled, "I'm just in case." ”

Ji Xiao still didn't answer, she took a deep breath and said, "You push it on my head, just say that I instructed you to do this, I can't get used to your Elder Tai bullying you and exploiting you, so I instructed you to poison him." ”

"Xiaoxiao!" Lu Xiaoyin and Qiushui disagreed.

Lu Xiaoyin opened his mouth and said, "Even if you instigate it, Ning Hao is as guilty, why should you?" ”

Ji Xiao smiled, "At least the sin is not death." ”

"And what do you do?" Qiushui said hatefully, "When the time comes, Ah Hao didn't rescue you, but arrested you again, what should you do?" ”

Ji Xiao smiled: "You don't have to worry, the city lord is very optimistic about me, as long as he can give me a little time, when Ah Hao is released from prison first, I will have a way to escape." ”

"Nope." This time it was Ning Hao who was opposed, "We are already struggling here, the city lord's optimism about you is our only hole card, if we let him help every time, when his patience is exhausted, there will be no one to help us when we really need help in the future." ”

And the city lord really can't help much in this matter, on the contrary, now whether it is the Seven Killing Hall or the family behind the director, they are putting pressure on him to solve the case as soon as possible and bring the murderer to justice.

Originally, Qiu Yuan wanted to help Ji Xiao, but he was afraid that even he didn't expect that he would eventually implicate himself and put him in such a difficult situation.

Ning Hao took Ji Xiao's hand, directly stuffed the space ring into Ji Xiao's hand, and said, "Okay, this matter depends on what the city lord does, don't trouble him anymore." ”

"Then ......" Ji Xiao hesitated for a moment, and finally put away the space ring, "Then you wait, we will definitely find a way to save you." ”

"Okay." Ning Hao smiled, as if he had suddenly let go of some kind of burden, relieved.

Ji Xiao looked at his smile and always felt a little weird, but he couldn't tell what was strange. She left the cell step by step, until she walked out of the prison gate, and Ning Hao's last smiling face lingered in her mind.

Suddenly, her face changed dramatically, "Not good! As she spoke, she quickly ran back and came back to Ning Hao's prison, and was suddenly shocked.

Soon, a scream pierced the sky above the City Lord's Mansion.

Ning Hao died, he committed suicide, he didn't want to put the blame on Ji Xiao, and he didn't want to embarrass the city lord, so he could only choose to commit suicide.

After being imprisoned for a few hours, he had already thought very clearly about this matter, unless the blame was put on Ji Xiao, he had no way to retreat and no way out.

Since dying early and dying late is death, it is better to die early, so that it can leave a good impression on the city lord, as long as the city lord continues to be optimistic about Ji Xiao, when he really encounters difficulties in the future, he may still be able to get his help.

When he returned home with Ning Hao's ashes and looked at the letter he left for them, everyone was in mourning, and Ji Xiao cried even more.

It shouldn't be, it shouldn't be like this, it's all because of her involvement, it's all because of her!

The oppressive atmosphere lasted for three days, and after three days, Qiu Huanhuan came.

"Xiaoxiao." Qiu Huanhuan wanted to comfort Ji Xiao, but she didn't know how to comfort her, so she had to pat Ji Xiao's shoulder, "I came today to tell you something." ”

"You say." It was Jing Feng who spoke, and everyone else was lazily leaning on the sofa, unable to lift their spirits.

Qiu Huanhuan glanced at Ji Xiao worriedly again before saying, "We have notified the Wang family, and the Wang family has also accepted this result and will not pursue it further." ”

The Wang family is the family where the director belongs.

This time, without waiting for Jing Feng to speak, Ji Xiao suddenly said: "Ridiculous, they said that if they don't pursue it, they won't pursue it?" This matter was originally framed by them, and even if they don't pursue it, I will go to them for trouble. ”

"Calm down." Qiu Huanhuan said, "The patriarch of the Wang family is a four-star venerable, and there are several four-star elders in the clan, you can't fight them." ”

Ji Xiao was silent for a while, and said, "Huanhuan, this matter must have been investigated by the City Lord's Mansion, you tell me, do the rest of the Wang family know about this matter?" ”

As long as it has something to do with it, she will never let it go.
