Nightcrawler: 20 Years of Peaceful Demons

Chapter 386

Logically speaking, the entire case history is now very clear, the chain of evidence is sufficient and reliable, and the relevant persons involved in the case have also confessed. Master Tan, who was wronged as a scapegoat, has already been released from suspicion and will be released soon.

However, there are a lot of procedures that need to be followed. After all, the appearance of Lu Po has overturned all the conclusions of the criminal police team's detection some time ago.

Subsequent things still need to be done again, which requires a process.

Of course, Captain Liu also assured us that he would push this matter forward as soon as possible, release Master Tan earlier, and give him justice.

Wu Laojiu has an old relationship with this Captain Liu, or in other words, has a very good relationship with the leader behind Captain Liu. It was the leader who helped arrange for Ma Yi'ao to meet Master Tan earlier, so for Captain Liu's words , we were all convinced, so after seeing off Captain Liu and Lu Bencai, we went to a local restaurant in Jinggangshan for dinner. The dishes here were very good and quite unique, and Suzaku was full of praise after eating them.

Because the matter has basically been settled, we all seemed very relaxed and opened a bottle of wine. Ma Yi'ao and I took turns to toast the landlord Wu Laojiu, thanking him for his great help these days.

Wu Laojiu never refuses anyone who comes. After drinking the wine, the atmosphere becomes warmer and the relationship gets closer. Wu Laojiu said to us: "You don't need to thank me, although I, Wu Laojiu, don't practice on Wudang Mountain , devoted myself to this mortal world, doing some mundane things to make a living, but my heart is still in Wudang Mountain; your affairs were ordered by Senior Sister Li Anan Li personally, and she also called several times, telling me to cooperate Well, she is like this, how dare I neglect her?"

After hearing this, we just realized that it turned out that Wu Laojiu cooperated with all his strength, but it was Li An'an who made great efforts behind the scenes.

While drinking, Wu Laojiu said: "Senior Sister Li has a very high status in Wudang Mountain, and her future is limitless. How dare I not listen to her words, right? Hahahaha..."

I'm a little curious, saying that you look ten years older than Li Anan, why do you call her "Senior Sister"?
Wu Laojiu said: "Speaking of which, when I saw her for the first time, she was only two and a half years old. At that time, she was a little girl, and she was already proficient in playing swords——she is from a famous Wudang family. From birth, as soon as I landed in the womb, even if I have entered the door, it is still an inner door. As for me, I spent ten years on the mountain, and finally my understanding is limited. , I can’t worship the real master, so I call her Senior Sister.”

I nodded and said that's the case, Wudang still has the theory of inner and outer sects.

Wu Laojiu nodded, and said: "Yes, as far as I know, the few big sects that have really stepped forward have always been divided into inner and outer sects in order to maintain the competitiveness within the sect. Similarly, a dozen or so teachers teach a large group of disciples, and then select some enlightened, solid, hard-working disciples to enter the inner sect; and when you arrive at the inner sect, there will be a special master to pick you, and At that time, the master will teach you according to your aptitude and teach you the real skills..."

I looked at Ma Yi'ao, he smiled, and said that he had said everything, that is the rule of the great sect, with many people, many resources, and fame. As for our wandering soldiers, recruiting apprentices is much more complicated. It all depends on fate.

We drank a lot of wine and talked about many things. When talking about Li Anan, Wu Laojiu said: "She has been gifted since she was a child, and she has shown extraordinary understanding. Everyone says she is a natural practitioner. , is carrying great luck on her body. Sure enough, when she was ten years old, she possessed sword skills. Among the young generation of Wudang Mountain, she had no opponents. so..."

I was amazed, and said that Li Anan was such an outstanding person.

Wu Laojiu smiled, and said that she is not without flaws, and the senior brothers are talking about it, saying that Senior Sister Li is good everywhere, but she is too cold and kind on the surface, but the arrogance and aloofness in her heart are not. It is always there, probably because her realm is far beyond that of her peers, or young people of the same age, that's why she is like this, not deliberately; and it is precisely this that makes her give people too much pressure, not down-to-earth, It's not like people of this age...

what?
I froze for a moment, and said no, I think she is quite normal, right, Ma Yi'ao?
The Li An'an Wu Laojiu mentioned was completely different from the Li Anan I met, which was surprising. I couldn't help looking at Ma Yi'ao, but Ma Yi'ao couldn't help laughing. A person's perspective is different, so it is inevitable that there will be differences - anyway, in front of Hou Mo and me, she is still a relatively normal girl...

When he said this, his tone was a little weird, and my arm suddenly hurt.

Why did Suzaku pinch me?

After chatting like this, under our encouragement, Wu Laojiu called the leader behind Captain Liu.

The other side gave a reply, saying that the suspect made a new transcript at the police station, which was basically the same as the materials submitted before. Now the basic chain of evidence is sufficient. He should push it as soon as possible and go through the procedure. Let it out.

We were so delighted to have a definite answer that we stopped worrying and rested in peace.

So we waited for another two days, and the person hadn't been released on the third day. At this time, we felt a little strange. Although we kept calling and urging us these two days, the other party seemed to be a little impatient, but in order to finish it quickly In this matter, we found Wu Laojiu again.

Wu Laojiu was a little helpless, but since he knew about our relationship with Li An'an, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and call again to ask questions.

I originally thought that the person would tell us "soon", or "we are going through the procedure", but I didn't expect that the person would take the lead and said to Wu Laojiu: "Old Wu, this matter has changed, the suspect People temporarily retracted the confession..."

what?
When we heard this, we were all stunned, feeling really incredible.

Lupo retracted his confession?
Hasn't this guy been made sure by Ma Yi'ao, and he has Ma Yi'ao's heartache in his stomach, and his wealth and life are all under Ma Yi'ao's control, how could he retract his confession?
Isn't he afraid of death?
Although acknowledging the crime is also death, but "death now" and "beheaded after autumn", normal people should choose the latter, right?

Moreover, Ma Yi'ao had already clearly told Lu Po what kind of tragedy the person who died after being hit by the eclipse heart powder was.

What exactly is going on?

The leader on the other side of the phone continued to talk. Judging from what he meant, it seemed that he had some complaints—Lu Po not only retracted his confession, refused to admit his crime, but also beat him back, saying that we deliberately fabricated Facts, and put poison in his body, threatening him to come and confess, otherwise not only will he be killed, but also his family will be harmed, and his whole family will be killed.

He came and confessed out of fear and dread.

This……

It turns out that this guy is going to draw his salary from the bottom of the pot. He is betting on the horses and dare not let his heart get out, otherwise the police's eyes will fall on us, which will confuse the situation. We probably don't want to cause trouble. So he hesitated and hesitated, which gave him room to maneuver.

But, is he really that desperate, ready to gamble with his life?
Shouldn't it be?

No matter how I look at it, I don't think Lu Po is the kind of person who dares to bet his life?
Wu Laojiu listened to the leader's narration, and then looked at us. Ma Yi'ao frowned, pondered for a while, and then said, "I want to see Lu Bo and have a chat with him."

It was probably a headache over there, so I readily agreed to the matter.

We said at the time that we were at Wu Laojiu's house, but we didn't have much to say at the moment, and let Wu Laojiu drive us directly to the detention center.

Everyone wanted to know why Lu Po dared to retract his confession at this time.

In fact, even if he recanted his confession, would he be able to completely get rid of his crimes?
All doubts can be known only after seeing Lu Po.
