Iron Snow Clouds

Chapter 770 Overnight
Tan Sizhi then asked, "How did you get into Tiecangting yesterday?"

"Of course you can get in if you want to. What else can you do to get in?" Nie Yangwei said.

"I'm asking, when you entered yesterday, did you show the badge you used to enter Tiecangting?" asked Tan Sizhi.

Nie Yangwei said, "Yesterday when I returned to Tiecang Court, those three people chased me. I thought they couldn't chase me after I entered Tiecang Court. I was being chased in a hurry and didn't have time to find the sign. I talked to the gatekeeper and he immediately took out something and asked me to press my fingerprints before letting me in."

"Have you ever thought that your brand might have been thrown outside before you entered Tiecangting?" Tan Si asked.

"No way? There's no reason to leave it outside! I see, it was Tian Wen and the others who lost my badge when they arrested me!" Nie Yangwei said.

Tan Sizhi continued to ask: "When did you leave Tiecangting?"

"I used the pursuit to injure Jian Rou that day, and then I got out."

"What are you doing out there?"

"shopping."

"What to buy?"

"Buy things for me. My father and I have a falling out, and I don't want to go back to live in Zonghuang Palace." Nie Yangwei said.

"You haven't returned to Zonghuang Palace to live in the past few days?"

"Yes, I didn't go back because I didn't want to see him, and he definitely didn't want to see me either," said Nie Yangwei.

"Where do you live then?"

"I usually live in Tiecang Court and find a place to sleep by myself, but I didn't go back to Mangyan Palace. The only night I hurt Jian Rou was when I slept in an inn outside." Nie Yangwei answered. Tan Sizhi said: "According to the rules of Tiecang Court, Yueyang needs to register when staying overnight outside Tiecang Court. Did you register?"

"I didn't even think about spending the night outside that night, so naturally I didn't register," said Nie Yangwei.

"Did you register after you came back?"

"I've always wanted to go and register, but I didn't have the time. First, I was chased by three people with evil eyes, and then I was tied up and locked up by Tian Wen and others." Nie Yangwei said.

"Why didn't you go back to Tiecangting that night?"

"I'm tired and in a bad mood. I walked around outside for a long time that day but didn't buy what I wanted. I knew there was a place that had it, but it was closed that day. I was so tired and felt like nothing was going well. Then I remembered that I wanted to beat up Bi Dian but accidentally hurt Jian Rou, and I felt even worse. I saw an inn nearby and wanted to go in and have a rest, but suddenly I felt so sleepy that I didn't come out and spent the night inside." Nie Yangwei said.

Tan Sizhi asked, "Elder Nie doesn't know about your situation these days, right?"

"I guess he doesn't know. I don't want him to know at all." Nie Yangwei said.

"If someone can prove that you were in the tavern outside Tiecang Ting at the time you claimed to have injured Jian Rou, how would you defend yourself?"

"Does this mean that I can clone myself? How can a person appear in two places at the same time?" Nie Yangwei said.

"How do you prove that you were the one who injured Jian Rou?"

"Does this need to be proven? If I hadn't done such a thing, would I admit it? Is this a good thing? Injuring Yueyang is not a small matter! What's more, I don't know how her legs are now. If she is seriously injured, then I will be in even bigger trouble. If I can deny it, it will be a great thing for me! Do I want to be locked up and punished?" Nie Yangwei said.
