Chapter 3: Nine Star Division
The next day, the Nine Stars Division, the back hall.
Several key members of the "task force" of the Nine Star Division gathered together and had a tense and heated discussion.
They were ordered to investigate the case of Lingyuan's disappearance, but after a few days, there was still no clue.
Since Ling Yuan's disappearance, the Nine Star Division has investigated many times and closed many cases, and only Lin Xiyao advocates reopening the investigation.
Jiuxingsi was helpless, so he simply handed over this hot potato to Lin Xiyao and let her take full responsibility. At the same time, the time limit is three days, and if there is still no evidence sufficient to overturn the case within three days, the case can only be closed according to the Yin soldier's excuse.
Of course, the Nine Stars Division did this, not because Lin Xiyao was a high-level member of the Nine Stars Division, but because her father was Xuanwei General Lin Chongyun, who was in charge of Ziyun Mountain and was the HR of the Nine Stars Division, and this face still had to be given.
"Shuiguan Canyon is an ancient battlefield, and the Sanxi Kingdom was destroyed after that war."
"At that time, General Ye Chen led 8,000 subordinates to ambush the 100,000 army of Sanxi in Shuiguan Gorge, and wiped out the entire Sanxi army."
"That's right, this time the Yin soldiers borrowed the way, and it was the ghost who was asking General Ye Chen for his life."
Several members of the Nine Star Division had dark circles under their eyes and haggard faces, still discussing this matter.
However, the matter has so far remained in the discussion stage.
Yin Bing borrowed the way, how do you think this answer is reliable. If anyone doesn't believe in such a thing as a Yin soldier, then there must be something wrong with their brains.
On the side, Lin Xiyao sat on the chair, holding her chin with one hand, listening to everyone's discussion of changing the soup or not changing the medicine, she was very helpless: "If the Yin soldiers are asking General Ye Chen for their lives, then why didn't the Yin soldiers directly kill General Ye Chen?" Instead, you want to take away the spirit yuan? Even if the spirit element can improve the user's cultivation realm, it doesn't seem to have any effect on the Yin soldiers. ”
After listening, a member of the Nine Star Division yawned and said listlessly: "We know your relationship with the Ye family, and we also know that you want to overturn the case for the Ye family." But as a nine-star division, we must speak with facts. The Yin soldiers' excuse for this incident really happened, and all the soldiers present could testify. ”
Another person also hurriedly chimed in: "And we questioned those soldiers separately, even if they discussed a unified voice, it is impossible to describe one thing so truthfully and accurately." Han Nian, you said yes, right? ”
After he finished speaking, he turned his gaze to the handsome young man named Han Nian on the side.
Compared to others' haggard and unkempt looks, Han Nian was wearing a spotless nine-star silver black uniform, clean from top to bottom, and it seemed that every strand of hair had been carefully treated.
He was sitting upright at the same spotless table, closing his eyes and meditating.
"Whew...... ZZZ……”
"Asleep? Feed! ”
A shout startled Han Nian suddenly, and then he slowly opened his eyes and raised his head slowly.
He was about to speak, when his eyes suddenly fell on the corner of the other party's eye, and he saw a big lump of eye.
This scene made Han Nian's face pale in an instant, and the whole person twitched violently.
Han Nian endured his inner fluctuations, took his eyes off the feces of his eyes, and then continued to lower his head and close his eyes: "Huh? Oh...... You continue the discussion, I'll go to sleep first. ”
As soon as he finished speaking, the snoring sounded again.
Seeing that everyone was indifferent to this case, Lin Xiyao felt very anxious, and her father's serious face kept coming to mind: "Is there no other way?" ”
During the discussion, a person walked quickly into the back hall and said, "A few adults, someone is on death row." ”
"Death row?" Lin Xiyao's eyebrows sank, and she was a little puzzled in surprise: "Didn't you say that there are still three days left?" Why did you come so soon? ”
Then, she looked up at the door and asked, "What are the people on death row doing in the Nine Star Division?" ”
"They say death row is haunted."
"Death row haunted?!"
After hearing these four words, everyone present was stunned.
Everyone looked at each other for a moment, then fell silent again.
Lin Xiyao frowned, looking at everyone's wooden expressions, and 10,000 grass and mud horses ran in her heart, what kind of strange assistants did the boss send to himself? !
It is better to ask for others than for yourself, she thought for a moment and said in a loud voice: "Bring people up." ”
After a while, Li Youfu and Sun Liang, who were wearing jailer uniforms, were put into the main hall of the Nine Star Division, their faces were bloodless, their bodies were weak, and their souls had been half frightened.
As soon as they let go, the two of them collapsed on the ground.
Opposite, Lin Xiyao sat on a high chair, expressionless, and asked in the tone of an interrogator: "You say death row is haunted?" ”
"Yes, haunted!"
"We've all seen it!"
"It's a ghost, it's really a ghost!"
"It's the unjust soul who has come to ask for his life!"
"Yesterday was the death day of that criminal department official......
Lin Xiyao cleared her throat and interrupted the two of them to speak.
"You say it one by one." Lin Xiyao's gaze swept over the two of them, and pointed at Li Youfu: "You say it first." ”
Li Youfu sat down on the ground, quickly moved forward, and said in a trembling voice: "Last night, the two of us were on duty, and it was about the right time, when there was a sudden cry from the prison, and then we saw a cloud of green smoke!" ”
Sun Liang added at the right time: "Where is the smoke?" That's a ghost fire! ”
Li Youfu immediately said: "That's right! There's a ghost fire! That ghost also said that his neck hurts, that he lost his head, and asked us to help him find his head! ”
The people on death row are all important prisoners of the imperial court, from the six books to the state history and county orders, as long as they go in, none of them come out alive. Rumors of haunting on death row are even more every year, and they are different every year.
Lin Xiyao didn't close her eyes all night, so she didn't have the heart to listen to the ghost stories told by the two jailers. But hearing the two mention the word ghost fire, Lin Xiyao instantly tensed her nerves, and her tiredness and sleepiness were swept away.
She asked, a little shocked, "What do you say......?" Did you see a ghost fire last night? ”
Li Youfu and Sun Liang nodded very tacitly, and said in unison: "See!" Green! Float towards us! ”
"Green ghost fire? Tell me more! ”
……
After asking about the situation of the two, Lin Xiyao stepped back to the back hall, but the originally noisy back hall was silent at the moment, not that they were all asleep, but that they all dropped their jaws.
Because the description of the two jailers is almost exactly the same as the description of the soldiers who witnessed the Yin soldiers' borrowing.
Lin Xiyao's gaze swept over everyone and asked, "Did you all hear it?" ”
Everyone was silent and nodded.
"So, you think there are Yin soldiers on death row too?"
Everyone nodded at first, then shook their heads, still silent.
"Whew...... ZZZ……”
There was a burst of snoring in the corner, and there was a faint sound of snoring.
Lin Xiyao looked at everyone's wooden expressions and sighed helplessly: "What a bunch of wood." ”
