My father is a Confucian sage, but the system forces me to be a crude warrior

Chapter 148 The murderer's real purpose, solve the case!!

Chapter 148 The murderer's real purpose, solve the case!!
"Those corpses that were burned to death..."

There was a hint of depth in Zeng Anmin's voice:
"Under what circumstances would a person remain motionless when faced with the prospect of being burned by fire?"

After saying that, he looked up at Bai Ziqing.

It was as if this question was being asked to Bai Ziqing.

Bai Ziqing narrowed his eyes and tentatively answered with two words: "Coma?"

"If he was just in a coma, how do you explain Huang Yuangao's death?"

Zeng Anmin looked at Bai Ziqing indifferently.

Bai Ziqing was stunned.

Then he raised his head suddenly and looked at Zeng Anmin:
"The Eastern Religion's method of entering dreams!!"

Follow this idea.

Bai Ziqing's body shook violently.

Then his eyes became extremely hot and he clapped his hands violently!
"Snapped!"

He stood up and looked at Zeng Anmin:

"I thought of it!!"

He looked extremely excited.

"What did you think of?"

Zeng Anmin saw Bai Ziqing's cheerful look, and raised the corner of his mouth slightly, giving him an encouraging look:
"Speak up."

With Zeng Anmin's encouragement, Bai Ziqing's voice was filled with a trembling excitement:

"The Demon Clan and the Eastern Cult are collaborating! They are working together to kill Huang Yuangao!"

At this point, he swallowed his saliva, licked his dry lips with his tongue, and said excitedly:

"First, let the people from the Eastern Sect use the dream-entering technique to control all the officials in the building to prevent the demons from being discovered while performing the technique."

"After controlling those officials, the demons used magic to burn the building and directed everyone's attention to the South Courtyard."

"Then they headed to the North Courtyard and surrounded and killed Huang Yuangao!"

There was a light of insight in Bai Ziqing's eyes.

He even learned Zeng Anmin's signature moves.

He narrowed his eyes, his voice turned cold, and his right hand was raised in a fist in front of his chest.

He put his left hand behind his back, puffed out his chest, and exuded an air of authority that emanated from him.

It makes his figure look extremely tall.

After saying these words, Bai Ziqing's face was full of pride:

"Because Huang Yuangao is a fifth-grade Confucian cultivator at the Dharma Realm, it is wishful thinking for the demon clan to defeat him alone, so the demon clan and the Eastern Religion have joined forces!"

After saying this, he felt relieved of the unhappiness that had been in his heart for more than twenty years.

Their eyes became disdainful.

Who says warriors are vulgar? Stand up!
From now on, please call me a wise warrior!

Seeing his figure, everyone's eyes lit up.

A gleam of light flashed in Liu Ji's dead eyes.

If the people from the Eastern Religion really joined forces with the demon clan in this matter, then he still has room for maneuver.

"Justifiable!"

Zeng Anmin's mouth twitched and he looked at Bai Ziqing calmly.

Bai Ziqing grinned.

"Unfortunately, it's all wrong."

Zeng Anmin shook his head regretfully and looked at Bai Ziqing with pity.

Bai Ziqing's face froze.

He raised his head mechanically and looked at Zeng Anmin's pitying eyes.

"Wrong time."

Zeng Anmin's voice was steady, his eyes sparkling with a glimmer that could see through everything:

"It only took two quarters of an hour from the time the fire started to the time it was put out in the South Courtyard."

"These two quarters of an hour are not enough for the demon race and the Eastern Religion people to accurately find Huang Yuangao in the chaos and kill him together."

"Who would only give themselves 25 minutes to commit a crime?"

Zeng Anmin glanced at Bai Ziqing:
“And the motives are wrong.”

"Huang Yuangao was found dead at 2:15 pm."

"But at this time, Huang Yuangao and the servants in the courtyard are still fully dressed?"

"It's really a bit abnormal."

Zeng Anmin took a deep breath, his eyes flashing with a solemn light:
"So from this I can infer that Huang Yuangao's time of death was not the hour of Hai, but earlier!!"

"The murderers from the demon tribe and the Eastern Religion sneaked into the courtyard beforehand and brutally killed Huang Yuangao and his servants."

"Afterwards, the people from the Eastern Religion began to cast a spell to control the officials in the South Courtyard."

"At the same time, the demon tribe cast a spell to set fire to the South Courtyard to attract everyone's attention."

Having said that, Zeng Anmin took a deep breath, looked at the guards guarding the Zhituyuan with burning eyes and asked:

"After the fire started that night, did you go to put it out?"

The guards looked at each other, then nodded seriously and said:

"I'm leaving now, sir."

"That's right."

Zeng Anmin looked towards the huge "Dragon Survey Map" in the middle of the main hall.

There was an inexplicable light flickering in his eyes.

"The Zhitu Academy has the Dragon Map, so they set up some formations. These formations can guard against practitioners."

"But these formations cannot protect against the demon race, or they are not very effective against the demon race."

"Therefore, the fifth-rank Confucian cultivator Huang Yuangao is stationed in the Xuanjing Division, which is the best defense against the monster race."

……

After saying this, Zeng Anmin sat on the chair, tapping his fingers lightly on the table.

"Da da da."

Very regular.

But this is also the most confusing time in everyone's mind.

They seemed to understand.

But I didn’t understand it at all.

Zeng Anmin slowly raised his head, and then revealed the answer in his heart to everyone:
"Based on what happened, the correct timeline should be like this."

"The monks of the Eastern Religion sneaked into the North Courtyard and assassinated Huang Yuangao."

"Zhi Tu Yuan has a formation to guard against practitioners."

"So the people of the Eastern Cult can only kill Huang Yuangao to buy time for the people of the demon clan."

"After Huang Yuangao's death, there were no more restrictions on the demon race."

"It went to the South Yard to set fire and attract everyone's attention."

"Then I bought myself two quarters of an hour."

"What could make the demon tribe and the Eastern Religion's spies go to such great lengths to commit this crime just to gain two quarters of an hour?"

Zeng Anmin looked at everyone, his tone was very firm:
"The Dragon Survey Map of the Zhitu Institute!!"

"The demon race rushed back to the Map Institute at a very fast speed. After replacing the Dragon Map, they left half of the black hood with the people of the Eastern Sect..."

"This half black hood is to confuse people and make everyone here focus on the black cat warrior, giving them time to escape."

……

After Zeng Anmin finished speaking.

Everyone fell into a long silence.

Everyone was savoring Zeng Anmin's words carefully.

No one spoke.

After a long time.

"The Eastern Religion's spies have joined forces with the demon race for the purpose of surveying the dragon map!"

Zeng Anmin said calmly: "So Huang Yuangao's death is inevitable."

"If he doesn't die, the demon race won't be able to replace the dragon map without alerting anyone."

"From this, we can also infer that the people of the demon tribe were able to sneak into the Great Saint Dynasty from thousands of miles away, and the people of the Eastern Religion made a lot of efforts."

boom! !

Like thunder.

Everyone's body trembled violently.

Look at Zeng Anmin.

Zeng Anmin glanced at them indifferently.

That’s enough of the “truth.”

Not only is it enough to report to the court.

It is enough to keep Liu Ji in front of him alive.

It was normal for him, a small county magistrate, not to see through such a plan.

"Bang!!"

Bai Ziqing stood up and walked out.

He's very fast.

"where are you going?"

Zeng Anmin's eyes were a little dull.

Why was this child so startled?

Bai Ziqing said hurriedly: "Of course, we have to hunt down the demons and retrieve the dragon map!"

"return!"

Zeng Anmin glared at him unhappily:
"From the day the crime happened to when we came here from the capital, to now, they have already run away and have disappeared without a trace."

"Chase? Can you catch up?"

Zeng Anmin took a deep breath, looked towards Liu Ji, and his voice turned cold:
"Since the case has been solved, you still have to compile the case into a file and send it to the capital. As for the final decision..." Having said this, he slowly looked at Bai Ziqing: "Whether to continue the pursuit or choose to ask for an explanation from Jiang State, it depends on what your majesty thinks. It has nothing to do with us."

……

Bai Ziqing moved.

But in the end, I didn't move forward.

He naturally knew that after so much time had passed, the Dragon Map must have disappeared.

Bai Ziqing looked towards the fake dragon map in Zhituyuan.

"The demon race!!"

"After going through so much trouble, they are still the demon clan!"

There was some anger in his voice.

I went to the south of the Yangtze River with Your Majesty.

I came here just to relax.

Who would have thought that Zeng Shilin, who was the governor at the time, would lose the Dragon Map.

Moreover, Zeng Shilin’s confession was also “demon fog”…

"Shhh!!"

He held the fake dragon map in his hand, and the sharp sword in his hand was flashing with coldness.

"Don't touch it!"

Zeng Anmin reminded: "This thing is physical evidence and must be presented to His Majesty."

Bai Ziqing's hand paused.

He glanced at the dragon map angrily, turned around and walked outside, saying in a cold voice:

"Liu Ji, once you have completed the dossier, please give it to me for review."

"If you dare to have those little thoughts again, I will kill you."

After saying this, his body disappeared from everyone's sight.

Zeng Anmin looked at his back and sighed softly.

Then he looked at Liu Ji expressionlessly and said:
"Write down the facts and the whole story of the case truthfully, and stop playing tricks on His Majesty!"

After saying that, Zeng Anmin glanced at him coldly and walked outside.

Only Liu Ji was left sitting there in a daze.

…………

As for why he was so cold towards Liu Ji.

the reason is simple.

The file he submitted to the capital.

[In the 13th year of Jianhong, on the sixth day of the fourth month, the Black Cat Warrior killed two spies from the Jiang State at the hour of Yin at night, preventing the thunder powder from detonating the Jishui Weir, thus saving the people from the flood and fire.]

The first half of the file has absolutely no impact on the entire case.

This is Liu Ji's clever trick.

He must have smelled the scent of the demon race that night.

But he concealed the incident and did not report it, just to reduce his own guilt of dereliction of duty.

This is also the reason why Bai Ziqing left angrily just now.

He was disappointed with the officials here.

"In order to reduce my own fault, I will focus everyone's attention on the Black Cat Warrior."

Zeng Anmin's face looked a little cold.

None of these officials are good!

If he didn't know that the Black Cat Warrior was himself, he would probably have focused on solving the case on the Black Cat Warrior after arriving in Liangjiang County.

However, these are not important to Zeng Anmin today.

He was sitting in the corridor outside the yard at this time.

His eyes looked towards the morgue of Xuan Jingsi.

There was an extremely sharp light flashing in his eyes.

"A spy of the Eastern Religion, helping the demon clan steal the map, helping them conceal their identities, and helping them kill Huang Yuangao..."

"What is their purpose?"

What is the picture?

Two completely hostile forces formed an alliance.

It can be said that people of Eastern religions are hardworking and never complain.

Who believes?

That's right.

In Zeng Anmin's heart.

The case is not over.

There was even a part of the truth that he didn't tell.

He walked towards the morgue.

"Shangguan..."

The people in the morgue had seen Zeng Anmin in the daytime.

Naturally, everyone knew him, so they were extremely respectful.

"Ah."

Zeng Anmin nodded lightly.

He looked towards the rows of corpses.

"Can the bodies of the Eastern Religion people who tried to blow up the Jishui Weir that day be placed in this morgue?"

he asked calmly.

The servant bowed respectfully and said:
"The body was completely decomposed and was sent to a mass grave the day before yesterday."

"Ah."

Zeng Anmin nodded silently.

After turning around.

His eyes were already filled with an extremely sharp gleam.

"Da da da."

He walked slowly outside.

Not long after, Bai Ziqing was seen on the rooftop of a building in Xuan Jingsi.

"Brother Bai, please get me up there too."

Zeng Anmin smiled and raised his eyebrows at Bai Ziqing.

Bai Ziqing wasn't very interested.

However, he would not refuse Zeng Anmin's request.

"Shh!"

It only takes two breaths.

He then jumped down from the roof and pulled Zeng Anmin onto the roof.

The scene changes in just a moment.

Zeng Anmin gave Bai Ziqing a thumbs up:

"Brother Bai's skills are getting better and better!"

"Alas, no matter how skilled you are, what's the use if you can't kill all the corrupt officials in the world."

Bai Ziqing rested his hands on his head and looked up into the night sky.

Zeng Anmin pursed his lips and smiled.

He slowly raised his head and looked at Bai Ziqing and said, "Brother Bai, don't be so worried. If you are poor, you should take care of yourself and help the world."

"You and I are nothing but ants in front of this great trend. Just take care of the people around you. If one day, we can really become a strong fortress to stop the trend, then we can stop worrying about these dirty things."

Bai Ziqing was a little stunned by Zeng Anmin's words.

His brain was a little off.

What is this? If you are poor, you should castrate yourself, but if you are rich, you should rape the whole world...

But he could understand the general meaning.

Zeng Anmin was trying to persuade himself to be more open-minded.

"By the way, Brother Bai, before you rushed from the capital to Liangjiang County that day, who in the court suggested that you take on this case?"

Zeng Anmin pretended to ask Bai Ziqing casually.

amount……

Bai Ziqing came back from the downtime.

He stroked his chin and thought for a moment.

Then he slowly said a person's name.

"Minister of Works, Liu Chengqian."
