"Oh, they," Ye Hengyuan walked in and sat on a chair opposite the small oil lamp, "Young Master Long and Sister Lei Xi went to the interrogation room to listen first. Brother Asin also went. ”

"Well, then we should go too, right? Let's go, Brother Hengyuan?" Xue Mengyi nodded, ready to go out.

"You go first, Mengyi. I'm a little uncomfortable and want to take a break. ”

"Huh?"

Xue Mengyi turned around in surprise, lowered her head, and looked at Ye Hengyuan. She saw that his expression was not very good-looking, there was a trace of tiredness in the corners of his eyes, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, as if he had just vomited.

"Brother Hengyuan, what's wrong with you? Did you get injured before? Didn't you go with Sister Lei Xi to chase those two assassins?

She put her hand on his forehead and touched it gently. He wasn't nervous, just shook his head.

"Nope. I wasn't hurt. ”

Ye Hengyuan's voice sank. Xue Mengyi took a step back and looked at his face, a trace of worry on her delicate little face.

"I just...... This one...... How do you say it......"

Ye Hengyuan raised his head and looked at the small oil lamp on the wall. The light of the small oil lamp was not very bright, it could even be said to be a little dim, and the brightness was not as bright as a candle in the Cangling Academy or the Heavenly Spirit Pavilion.

"Anyway...... It's just uncomfortable. ”

"Did you kill an assassin?" Xue Mengyi guessed at once.

"Well," Ye Hengyuan nodded lightly, "At that time, he had been devoured by evil arts, fell into a state of madness, and was seriously injured and still resisting. Sister Lei Xi restrained him, saying that he might blow himself up and let me kill him. ”

He glanced at the small oil lamp again. The light of the small oil lamp was crooked, and the light turned, twisting on the blue-gray wall tiles.

"I pierced his heart with Fang Tian's halberd. He immediately blew himself up and shattered in all directions. ”

"I understand," Xue Mengyi said, "Master told me that normal people are likely to have this feeling of nausea and vomiting when they kill someone for the first time. This is normal, Brother Hengyuan. ”

"Are you relaxed over there, Xiaomeng?" Ye Hengyuan asked.

"Hmm...... It's okay. The assassin I had been chasing had escaped into the men's bathroom of a bathhouse, but I didn't dare to chase him, and just as I was about to target him, the vigilantes set up a net to catch him. I'm ready to kill him, too. He didn't hurt innocent people. ”

"Well," Ye Hengyuan nodded, "That's great." If it were me, I might not dare to kill him. ”

The light of the small oil lamp was crooked again. The light shining on the wall is crooked into an oval shape that resembles dough.

"I still remember the people in the town being killed by the lightning that day. Some fell in the rubble, some crawled on the ground and struggled, and some turned into a piece of charcoal. I'll never forget them. ”

"I grew up knowing that all human beings are created equal and that no one has the right to arbitrarily take their lives. I knew I was going to have to kill people in the future. It took me half a year to convince myself and exercise my guts. But...... I still can't get over that feeling completely......"

Ye Hengyuan closed his eyes and shook his head vigorously, as if he wanted to delete the picture from his brain. In fact, that memory was indeed a forbidden area in his mind. Every time he thought about it, his heart ached. In the past six months, he has never mentioned it to anyone again, whether it is with his classmates or with the instructors. Although he had already carried out several internship missions to hunt spirit beasts, the fate of spirit beasts could not be compared to human life after all. Many things have passed, but he still can't completely get rid of the original self.

Xue Mengyi gently held his hand.

"It's okay, Brother Hengyuan. This is normal. If you're still uncomfortable, can I stay with you?"

"Ahh......h No, no need," Ye Hengyuan suddenly got up from his chair, "I'm much better...... Let's go, let's go...... Don't delay your work......"

"What, don't you want me to accompany you?" Xue Mengyi pretended to be angry and pursed her lips.

"No...... It's not ......" Ye Hengyuan shook his head awkwardly.

"Okay, I got it. Let's go. Xue Mengyi smiled and nodded.

Interrogation room.

The lanky Assassin slumped over a wooden chair in the middle of the interrogation room. Four bright metal cuffs shackled around his wrists and ankles, holding his limbs firmly to the surface of a wooden chair as rough as an elephant's skin. Three spiritual power seals with different attributes appeared on his body, sealing all the spiritual veins in his body and suppressing every trace of spiritual power in his body. He was completely immobile now, unable to use even the slightest trace of spiritual power. He squinted at the two vigilantes sitting in front of him, as if he didn't pay any attention to them. His long, unkempt purple hair drooped naturally, obscuring half of his face. His eyes were purple-gray and looked cloudy like a pulp. Two large mirrors were placed on his left and right sides, reflecting the light of the demon spirit guide lamp hanging from the ceiling to him, and the dust and scars on the lower half of his face were particularly eye-catching.

"Still won't say anything?" said the vigilante on the left, sternly.

The assassin shook his head slightly, as if asleep.

"Do you think we're going to have nothing to do with you?" the vigilante raised his voice, "Don't think we don't know, your real purpose is just to cover up your comrades and your big underground deal?"

The assassin still didn't react, only one eye was exposed, and the cloudy eyeball rolled.

"Smack!"

The vigilante picked up a stack of papers and slammed them on the table.

"A few of your accomplices have already been recruited! Your other accomplices will smuggle the forbidden drugs into the city tonight and send them to your secret den in the city!, right?"

"Huh!"

The assassin sneered. His laughter was unpleasant, low and hoarse.

"Don't you already know everything?

The security officer on the right also sneered twice. His appearance, build, and temperament were very different from his colleagues on the left, but rather resembled the Assassins. He was also medium-sized, with a large long face, dark skin, and long hair, but much neater than the Assassin's head.

"Fu Guoping, you finally spoke? We're afraid you won't speak. I don't understand why your code name is 'Loach', and is it more appropriate to call it 'Cockroach' or 'Bed Bug' with your temperament?"

"Does this have anything to do with you?" the Assassin Fu Guoping looked up, "I don't think you would want to know this." ”

"We certainly don't need to know this. We just want to know when and where you are trading, and how much you are trading. You are a third-order spirit master, and you must know that cultivating evil arts will not end well. You should have guessed that the headquarters has sent reinforcements to the city to garrison the spirit master troops, commanded by high-level spirit masters above the sixth order. Even if you don't say anything, it's only a matter of time before we sweep you away. ”

"Really? hahaha!" Fu Guoping laughed, "It seems that our Five Beast Gang's secret concealment techniques are indeed worthy of its reputation! Even high-level spirit masters can deceive it!"

"Hmph," the vigilante snorted, "of course you can continue to resist. You should also know what it means to be a sin plus. You have made and sold banned drugs, attacked innocent civilians, and attempted to assassinate provincial governors and provincial officials. If you want to die right away, keep your mouth shut. ”

Fu Guoping lowered his head again and continued to remain silent.

"Squeak-"

The door was pushed open. Ye Hengyuan and Xue Mengyi walked in. The two of them put their masks back on.

The vigilante on the left immediately stood up, saluted the two, and handed over the stack of confessions.

Fu Guoping raised his head and glanced at Ye Hengyuan, who was a little closer to him. He swallowed hard, and his body twisted several times, twisting the metal cuffs so that they "squeaked".

"He is the one who was captured alive by Brother Ashin?" Ye Hengyuan lowered his head and asked in a low voice.

"Hmm. Xue Mengyi nodded.

The two of them quickly flipped through several confessions. These confessions were made by three other Assassins. Before the two of them arrived, Long Lin, Li Wenxin, and Lei Xi had already gone over to assist in the interrogation of the three assassins. Although the laws of the Cangling Kingdom prohibit the torture of anyone, it is not difficult to extract confessions from a few assassins whose spiritual power has been sealed. According to the confessions of the other three Assassins, they were indeed the remnants of the "Seven Beast Gang" that had once operated in the northern provinces of the Cangling Kingdom. After the "Seven Beast Gang" was wiped out, some of the remaining parties escaped with the covert support of the Jianyan Navy and the pirates in the northwest waters of the Cangling Country, fled to the northwest region, and with the support of some forces, they were reorganized into the "Five Beast Gang" and operated in the northwest area. They are the backbone members of the branch of the "Five Beast Gang" operating in the area of Cangqing City, and their main task is to be responsible for producing and trafficking banned drugs that assist in cultivating evil arts, and may even cause malignant mutations of ordinary martial spirits, and sell them on the black market in the areas of Cangyan Province and Xiliang Province. The attack on Cangqing Square this time was an order from their superiors, and it was commanded by the head of several of them, that is, Fu Guoping, codenamed "Loach". The purpose of this operation was not to assassinate Governor Huang Yixiong, but only to disrupt Cangqing City, so that they could take the opportunity to seize the loopholes in the city's defenses and complete the transaction.

"Not only do they produce and sell banned drugs, but they also often kidnap ordinary civilians and students of the Spirit Master Academy, either using them as their test subjects or forcibly pulling them into the gang," the security officer whispered, "The other guys also said that only this Fu Guoping knew the details of this transaction, as well as the contact information of their upline. ”

"Oh, I see?"

"That's right. ”

"So what now? I don't know much about that...... You can't torture him, right?" Ye Hengyuan nodded, turned around, faced Xue Mengyi, and asked in a low voice.

"I can hypnotize him with the family's secret hypnotism," Xue Mengyi whispered, "but someone has to help me." ”
