Ah Tian smiled bitterly and responded, "A monster who can go deep into Kyoto to be an internal monster will definitely not be stupid." ”

He felt that it was difficult to find clues from this fox demon.

"This monster's mouth is too hard, we have to find a way to pry it open! However, it hates Da Zhou so much, it's not easy to make it open its mouth! ”

Ah Tian suggested, "Why don't you change to another one!" ”

Li Huaiyun said in a deep voice, "That's the only way, let's go and meet the official of the military department first!" He whispered to the two guards who were following him, "Both, I want to meet the detained military officer!" ”

The guards did as he asked, and led them out of the cell and to a place where the military officials were being held.

On the way, Ah Tian worriedly mentioned, "What if I still can't find a clue?" ”

Li Huaiyun responded calmly, "In that case, then go back to the scene and see if you can find some clues about the black-robed man." ”

"There is no such thing as a perfect crime in this world!"

"The perfect crime?" Ah Tian was slightly puzzled by this, "Isn't this a case or a monster?" ”

"Nope! To be precise, it is a crime of collusion between three parties! Their final purpose is by no means simple! ”

This speculation has been said by Li Huaiyun before, but Ah Tian still doesn't quite understand what it means.

The guards took the two of them to a place in the mountain behind the Demon Slayer, where the mountains and rivers were beautiful, far away from the hustle and bustle of the market.

Li Huaiyun looked around, the mountain trail was full of greenery, and the breeze was blowing, with a special aroma of grass.

"It's a nice place, it looks like a summer retreat!"

"Humph! Locking that kind of person here is for them to enjoy! ”

"Don't complain!" Ah Tian explained, "That's the official of the imperial court, when they haven't been convicted, they can't be let go to prison, that weak look, they haven't stayed for a few days, plus we come to ask, maybe they will go to the west!" ”

"Besides, in the absence of direct evidence to prove that this official is related to this time, you can't arbitrarily detain the imperial court officials."

The guards brought them to a wooden house, and there were a few guards guarding there outside, to prevent unscrupulous people from trying to kill them.

As soon as they reached the door, they heard that the official was losing his temper inside, and when the guard pushed the door open, he saw the scene inside, frowned and shook his head, just because of the identity of the other party, he was not very easy to say anything.

The floor was sprinkled with food, and the military officer stepped on the table with one foot on it, roaring loudly with an angry expression, complaining that the Demon Slayer had illegally imprisoned him, and that the food he had sent was like pig food, which was difficult to swallow.

This official's name is Liu Bing, and he is one of the four divisions of the Ministry of War, an official in the Treasury Department, and judging from his official resume and promotion, he is an official with a lot of room for promotion.

He has worked diligently in the treasury department for so many years, rarely goes to those fireworks places, usually, after dealing with official business, he goes home, has been married for more than ten years, and the relationship with his wife is normal.

Liu Bing saw someone coming in from outside, and he was even more energetic and spoke louder, he just hoped to use this to attract other people's ideas, and wanted people to know that he was imprisoned here and was very wronged.

His face was so excited that he shouted, "Let me out!" What the hell have I done, and why is the Demon Slayer holding me here? ”

Li Huaiyun looked at the wasted food on the ground, and he thought that the previous stall owner said that the grain harvest in Da Zhou this year was not good, the price of grain had risen a lot, and he had not even been able to eat enough in the prison.

This kind of wasteful behavior made him more and more bored with this person.

He walked up directly, grabbed Liu Bing's collar, dragged him to the ground, and pulled him to the place where the food was poured, "Who made you waste food so much!" ”

Liu Bing turned his head sideways, grabbed the other party's arm with both hands, and kept struggling, "Who are you!" You have to take care of it. ”

Seeing this, Ah Tian immediately came up, wanting to stop Li Huaiyun, "Ah Yun! You... ”

"You don't care!" Li Huaiyun shouted, and then pressed Liu Bing's head to the ground, "I tell you, these meals are the rations of those poor people and a family for a day, but you are so wantonly wasted!" ”

He grabbed the rice on the ground and stuffed it directly into Liu Bing's mouth, "Pick up all the rice here for me." ”

Liu Bing's mouth was full of rice, and he shouted in that indistinct voice, "I am an official of the imperial court, you little demon hunter, you dare to be so rude." ”

"What a big official! Tell you, Lao Tzu doesn't care who you are, you are now slaying demons, you have to listen to me! ”

"Bastard! Look at me and I'm not going to mix in your Demon Slayer Division! ”

Li Huaiyun pulled Liu Bing up from the ground and slapped him over, "Then I'll let you die here first." ”

He slapped the other party several times in a row, and the Liu Bing who hit him directly knelt on the ground and begged for mercy!

Ah Tian wanted to go up and stop it, he knew that the consequences of doing so would make the Demon Slayer Division very troublesome, but he was still very relieved to be able to deal with such a disgusting official.

After all, he also hates this kind of arrogant official who only cares about the people.

Li Huaiyun stood up, looked at Liu Bing, who was kneeling there, and said with a serious face, "You, sit there for me!" I have a few questions to ask! ”

"Yes!" Liu Bing immediately got up, then sat on the chair, and stroked the beaten painful face, he didn't know what the origin of this person was, and it was impossible for the people of the Demon Slayer to do anything to them.

Li Huaiyun opened his mouth and said, "Liu Bing is right! Now suspect that you are colluding with monsters! ”

When Liu Bing heard his words, he was completely panicked, his expression became a little flustered, and his tone of voice was trembling, "No! No! I have absolutely not colluded with any monsters, and if Your Excellency heard these rumors from there, it must be a shameless attack by my political enemies! ”

Li Huaiyun stood there, his hands clasped around his chest, "Rumors? Attacked by political opponents? ”

"I'll tell you, that monster has been arrested by our Demon Slayer Division, and it will take a little time to interrogate it, so you'd better confess truthfully now and strive for leniency."

"What to tell me the truth," Liu Bing's expression was grim, and he denied it again, "Don't try to lie to me!" I have nothing to do with that fox demon at all. ”

"Kitsune?" Li Huaiyun laughed loudly, "Since I entered here, I haven't said that the monster is a fox demon, since you don't know, why do you know, I'm talking about a fox demon?" ”

"I... That's just a coincidence! Liu Bing was asked, and could only wave his hand vigorously, "I don't know!" I don't know! How do I know, you are using my words, I remember you said that it was a fox demon. ”

"What else do you want to quibble?"

"You're talking nonsense, I'm not quibbling."

Li Huaiyun shrugged helplessly, "The living room is extremely yin, and the bunch of hair on the roof is invisibly identifying you.

That fox demon has betrayed you! And you are still trying to defend it, and when the time comes, this sin will be borne by you. ”

"Impossible!" Liu Bing scratched his body and retorted vigorously, "I don't know what a fox demon is. ”

Ah Tian stood aside, looking a little anxious, the two behaved surprisingly consistently, and neither admitted to knowing each other.

If it goes on like this, it's a complete endless loop.

Li Huai turned around and frowned at Ah Tian, motioning for them to leave this place first, just as they were about to leave.

Liu Bing shouted to stop them, "Wait a minute! How long will you keep me in custody? It is a felony to detain an official of the imperial court without permission. ”

Li Huai overturned his head and roared in a low voice, "Collusion with monsters is a serious crime, and the death penalty starts, it depends on whether you can leave here and tell the emperor about this, otherwise, you can wait here with peace of mind, if you are innocent, the Demon Slayer Division will naturally let you go." ”

Liu Bing asked loudly, "Then you haven't been able to find out, so I'll keep being locked up here?" You don't know, I still have a lot of things to deal with. ”

"So! You confessed your sins sooner! No, there's nothing going on! ”

"I repeat, I don't know anything about a fox demon at all!"

Li Huaiyun stroked his chin, obviously this kind of capital crime of the Nine Clans is unlikely to be admitted, but just now, this person has already revealed some flaws, as long as he digs deeper, I believe that he will be able to find evidence to make this Liu Bing confess.

In order not to irritate each other, Li Huaiyun and Ah Tian did not continue to ask, they walked out of the house and prepared to leave here.

"Sure enough, that's the result!" Ah Tian's face was full of disappointment, "People are not stupid, this crime is too big, how dare you admit it!" ”

"In that case, we'll have to find other evidence!"

Ah Tian nodded in agreement, "Yes!" However, we have to hurry up, the Demon Slayer Division can't keep detaining this Liu Bing, beyond time, and if the monster has not been determined, if it is related to this person, we must let that person go, otherwise the Demon Slayer Division will be mixed with a copy! ”

"Isn't it true that our Demon Slayer Division is not under the control of the court?"

"Naturally, we won't return, but we can't let us arrest people at will, otherwise this court law will be abolished!"

Li Huaiyun thought as he walked, the prisoner's dilemma had no substantive effect on this person and the fox demon, one was because he was not afraid of death at all, and the other was because the crime was too big, and he knew that it was a dead end, and he couldn't turn back.

I'm afraid that this will have to be done with the help of some external forces to make them distrust each other, so that they can confess to each other, and the question is, what is needed to make them distrust each other?

He clapped his hands vigorously, "It's a pity that the hair I got from the roof of the official's house was snatched away by the black-robed man, otherwise I could still follow this clue and find some evidence." ”

Ah Tianmo held the saber at his waist and pondered for a moment, "Is there any place we haven't been?" ”

"At the moment, there is only the place where the fox demon is hiding!"

"That's right! Maybe you'll find some clues there. "Ah Tian came to the spirit,

Li Huaiyun pointed ahead, "Go!" We hurried to the Iron Painting Pavilion to find Master Liu Helm, he sent someone to track him down last night, and the place was guarded by his people. ”

They left this place and went directly to the Iron Painting Pavilion, Liu Pingzhong had already returned, and when he heard that Li Huaiyun had also come to look for him, he hurriedly asked someone to bring the two of them in.

In the inner hall of the Iron Painting Pavilion, only Liu Pingzhong, Li Huaiyun and Ah Tian were entertained.

"How's that going?"

Li Huaiyun clenched his fists and explained, "These two people's mouths are quite hard, and they have always been reluctant to confess to each other!" ”

He shrugged his shoulders helplessly and sighed, "If it goes on like this, it's not okay, we can't detain this official for a long time, it's not in line with the legislation of the imperial court." ”

Liu Pingzhong nodded in agreement, "If it is clear that this official did not collude with the demons, when the time comes, he will definitely kill the demon division to the emperor." ”

He pondered for a moment, "We can probably only be detained for another half a day, and then we need to find a random reason to release us." ”

"This half a day should be enough, right?"

Li Huaiyun didn't say a word, but sighed twice, "I don't know if it's enough, I have to go to the scene!" ”
