Chapter Ninety-Eight: If It's a Good Thing, Why Dig Deeper!

Early the next morning, the assassination of Fu Zongshu, the prime minister of the dynasty, spread all over Bianjing, causing a sensation in Bianjing.

What's even more surprising is that the person who assassinated Fu Zongshu was actually one of Fu Zongshu's most trusted subordinates, Golden Scale!

As early as last night, Golden Scale was thrown into prison by the Criminal Department on the charge of assassinating the imperial court official!

His Majesty personally issued an order to let the four famous arresters interrogate this case and track down the motive of the Golden Scale to assassinate Fu Zongshu.

So early in the morning, ruthless and chasing his life, he set off to the prison of the Criminal Department.

The prison was dimly lit, cold and damp, and there was a strange stench in the air, like a mixture of rotting flesh and blood, and it smelled disgusting.

At that time, the terrible and tragic wails that came from the depths of the prison from time to time set off this prison like a purgatory on earth, which was terrifying.

Chasing the life of the wine jar, he sighed: "It's really worthy of being a prison of the Criminal Department, it's really terrifying."

Ruthless looked up at Chasing Life and said, "You can still drink in this environment, you really can't live without wine for a moment."

Chasing Fate laughed when he heard this, and responded, "That's all I have in my life."

As they spoke, they had already arrived at the special place in the prison of the Criminal Department, which was used for the interrogation of criminals.

At this time, the golden scales had not yet been delivered, so they could familiarize themselves with the environment first.

While looking at the various torture instruments on the shelves on the side, looking at the dark red blood stains on the torture tools, he said to Ruthless, "I heard that someone has already interrogated the golden scales last night."

Nodding ruthlessly, he said, "It's from the Taishi Mansion."

Everyone in the world knows that Fu Zongshu, the prime minister of the dynasty, and Cai Jing, the prince, are wearing a pair of pants, but only the emperor himself does not know.

Fu Zongshu, as Cai Jing's powerful assistant in the court, was suddenly assassinated by his subordinates, which was not a trivial matter for Cai Jing, and he naturally had to be interrogated overnight.

As for whether something came out of the interrogation, then they do not know.

Bang dang.

Just as Ruthless was talking to Chaser, the door of the room was pushed open, and two men in jailer clothes dragged an old man in prison uniform in, one left and one right.

The old man's body was covered with whip marks, and the blood had solidified, and it was sticking to his clothes, and the slightest pull would cause the wound to reopen, and the pain was incomparable.

Looking at the hands again, the nails had been completely removed, and the swollen black and purple fingers were covered in blood.

Just looking at this situation, ruthlessness and pursuit of life knew that this old man must have suffered a lot of criminal laws, but he didn't know what kind of crime this old man had committed, and he actually had to use such cruel means to interrogate.

Just as he was chasing and looking at the old man mercilessly, the two jailers had already set the old man on a chair beside him.

"Two adults, the criminal Golden Scale has been brought."

Chasing Life and Ruthless heard the jailer's words, and their faces showed surprise.

Golden scales?

This old man in front of him is actually a golden scale?!

They had all seen Golden Scale in the past, and knew that Golden Scale was a young man, but they hadn't seen each other for a while, why did Golden Scale suddenly become a gray-haired old man?

While the two were startled, the two jailers had already walked out of the room and went to guard the door.

….

Ruthlessly pushed the wheelchair to the front of the golden scale, looked at the golden scale with a dull look on his face, blank eyes, and old and haggard golden scale, and asked in a low voice, "How did you become like this?"

The Golden Scale didn't seem to hear the ruthless words, and barely reacted.

Chasing Life crouched in front of the golden scales and said, "We're asking you."

Ruthlessly looked at the golden scales who didn't react, turned his head to look at the jailer standing in the doorway, and asked, "Has he always been like this?"

Hearing the merciless questioning, the jailer nodded and replied, "He has been delirious since he was caught last night, and he has tried many ways to get him to say a word."

Ruthlessly heard the jailer's answer, again

Turning his gaze to the Golden Scales, then to Chase Fate, he said, "Looks like we'll have to investigate ourselves."

Chasing Life nodded, looking at the current state of the golden scale, it should have been greatly stimulated and completely collapsed.

If they want to find out about this eucalyptus, they can only look for other clues.

……

Two hours later.

On the Bianqiao Bridge.

It is agreed that the ruthlessness and pursuit of life encountered here will come here on time.

Chasing Life looked ruthless, took a deep breath, and said, "I already know about the matter."

Ruthless nodded lightly and responded, "Me too."

Chasing Fate turned his gaze to the place where he met Huo Yin a few days ago, which was empty at this time.

He said in an extremely complicated tone, "I really didn't expect this matter to have anything to do with him!"

After leaving the prison of the Criminal Department, he and Ruthless split up to investigate the recent movements of Golden Scale.

Then he found out that Golden Scale had gone to a small courtyard several times yesterday, and there lived a scholar named Mr. Huo in that small courtyard!

Before yesterday, Golden Scale had been behaving normally, and after Golden Scale went to that small courtyard, Fu Zongshu was killed by Golden Scale that night!

To say that this matter has nothing to do with Huo Yin, he will never believe it!

It's just that he was very curious, how did Huo Yin say that he used the golden scales to assassinate Fu Zongshu?

Ruthlessly turning the wheelchair, he said to the chaser, "Go and see."

Nodding his head, the two of them walked towards Huo Yin's courtyard together.

When they came to the courtyard, the door was open.

Through the open door, they could see at a glance Huo Yin who was lying on a recliner.

At this time, Huo Yin was lying on the recliner, with a fan in his hand fanning gently, and it seemed that he was about to fall asleep.

Ruthless and Chasing Life glanced at each other, and then Chasing Ming stepped forward and knocked on the door, saying, "Mr. Huo, Chasing Life is coming."

[I have known an old book friend for ten years to recommend to me to chase books, @

It's a terrible thing.

Huo Yin's body seems to have a kind of magic power, which can invisibly manipulate people's life and death.

They have handled many complicated eucalyptus cases, but there has never been a eucalyptus as strange as this eucalyptus today!

It's a mysterious power they've never faced before!

I couldn't help but turn my head ruthlessly to look at the signboard erected on the wall beside it.

God knows, I know.

What happened yesterday, maybe apart from Huo Yin, only God knows!

And when they can't have any evidence, it is undoubtedly impossible for them to convict Huo Yin.

What's more, they only came here to find out the truth of the matter, and they never thought of convicting Huo Yin!

Because whether it is the death of the golden scale or the death of Fu Zongshu, it is a good thing for the court and the entire Great Song Dynasty!

Since it's a good thing, it should be supported, so why bother digging into it!

"Tea isn't good enough, I still prefer to drink."

In the silence, the chasing life suddenly opened his mouth to break this subtle silence.

He lifted the jar and drank with his head up, laughing and saying, "If it weren't for the errands, you should have gone to a tavern and had a good drink!"

Fu Zongshu is their political enemy and has always wanted to kill them.

They have always had the same idea.

It's just that Fu Zongshu is the prime minister of the dynasty, and there are countless masters around him to protect him, whether it is from the light or from the dark, it is not easy to get rid of Fu Zongshu.

Now that Fu Zongshu died for something, it would be beneficial and harmless to them, so naturally they should celebrate it.

As for the matter about Huo Yin, he didn't want to delve into it anymore.

Because it's better to have more friends like this than to have more enemies!

Just as he was chasing his life and drinking happily, he pursed his lips ruthlessly and said to Huo Yin: "Mr. Huo, we can find out that this matter has something to do with you, and Cai Jing's people will definitely be able to find out, so you better be careful."

Ruthless knew that Huo Yin had the ability to calculate, but after all, he had never seen Huo Yin make a move, so he didn't know Huo Yin's martial arts.

And Cai Jing has countless masters under him, if Cai Jing wants to make a move against Huo Yin, then Huo Yin is still very dangerous.

Huo Yin smiled and said, "I am a fortune teller, except for the matter of fortune telling, which has nothing to do with me, other things have nothing to do with me."

Cai Jing didn't bother him, so naturally everyone was happy.

If Cai Jing still wants to take action against Fu Zongshu when he has the experience of Fu Zongshu's past, then he can only send Cai Jing underground to reunite with Fu Zongshu!
