"After investigation, we found that the swordsman might have been framed."
"What did you say?" Di Liying frowned immediately, expressing her confusion at the middle-aged man's words, and the middle-aged man's serious and solemn expression seemed to confirm her ominous premonition just now.
The middle-aged man said:
"The witness of the incident was one of our A-level heroes. They were imprisoned by the seal of Nai Ling Horn, one of the four members of Huangquan Zuodao, and the wanted criminal, and were isolated from the outside world."
"It is indeed the Huangquan Zuodao Four that besieged Bai Yong. There is no one else."
"What do you mean? Be more direct." Di Liying said.
"It's like this. None of the four members of Huangquan Zuodao have the ability to suppress the curse. Among the four of them, the criminal who possesses the power of curse, Lenas Nora, also known as the alcoholic, is actually not a curse caster."
"Haitang'er is an internal agent of the Hero Association in Hopeless City. She acts as a spy outside and is known as a 'snake' among criminals. Her curse power is not at the level of a newly promoted S-class hero. With her ability, she is already qualified to apply for a super S-class hero."
"Such a person, even if there is someone who can restrain her, cannot do nothing in this battle. If..."
At this moment, Di Liying raised her hand to stop the middle-aged man from speaking, her eyes gradually turning cold.
"You should know what you're talking about."
Feeling Di Liying's gaze, the middle-aged man was silent for a moment and then resolutely said:
"Yes, I know. If Haitang'er had taken action at that time, the outcome would have been different. The swordsman wouldn't have to suffer in vain. And as a hero, she had no reason to stand by and watch, or even need the swordsman's protection."
"Bai Yong protected her himself, and now you tell me this is a conspiracy?" Di Liying's eyes were slightly cold, her aura was enhanced, and there seemed to be a cold murderous intent floating around her.
The middle-aged man remained calm and continued:
"The swordsman may have been kept in the dark and is completely unaware of this matter. He may not even know Haitang'er's own strength and mistakenly thinks she is just an ordinary woman!"
"How is this possible? She is mine..."
"Hero Sword Princess, regardless of past feelings, please make the necessary judgments based on your duty as a hero."
"You!!!" Di Liying's breath rose from the ground, full of majesty.
The middle-aged man made a proper heroic salute.
"No matter what, it is necessary to hunt down and investigate the curser Haitang'er. Your Excellency Jian Ji, my words may not be pleasant to hear, but the truth is often not what people want. We are shouldering the responsibility of heroes. People may not know, but we cannot accept everything that is not solved without thinking."
"Please allow me to give an explanation to those present, and also to the swordsman whose life or death is uncertain!"
Di Liying clenched her hands, looked at the children around her whose eyes had changed, and suddenly felt that this world really made her powerless.
Her cousin was abandoned at first, but she still became a hero. Now she is used as a pawn by others and has to bear the responsibility of being wanted.
Regardless of whether the conspiracy was true or not, she, her cousin, was forced from beginning to end.
Man, hero...
56. Don’t stop, hero
The students on the side, when they heard what the middle-aged man said, all fixed their eyes on Di Liying, very seriously.
"Teacher, you are a famous hero. You will not turn a blind eye to what happened to Teacher Bai, right?"
"Teacher, you are the deputy head of the sword department of our academy, and Teacher Bai is the chief. You will not watch Teacher Bai being killed, right?"
"tutor……"
Those students, full of passion for doing good for others, were unwilling to see Bai Yong being murdered like this, so they all looked at Di Liying and asked her to handle the matter.
Seeing the classmates around her like this, as well as the people from the Hero Association waiting nearby, Ye Caixin quietly approached Di Liying and asked in a low voice.
"Teacher, what should we do now? I remember that Haitang'er is your cousin..."
Ye Caixin didn't dare to ask more questions. She just stood aside and looked at Di Liying, waiting for Di Liying's reaction.
Di Liying saw the gazes of those students and the child Ye Caixin beside her, and gritted her teeth slightly.
She knows her duty as a hero, she understands the need to get to the bottom of things whenever possible, and she knows what kind of example she needs to set as a teacher for the children.
However, she gave an explanation to herself, she gave an explanation to these children, she gave an explanation to the staff of the Hero Association, but who would give an explanation to her cousin who had been displaced for so many years and had a rough life?
Sometimes, she really envied those heroes who only pursued fame and fortune, and never gave themselves an explanation.
"Go ahead and do what you think is necessary. This is your job. You don't need to ask me for permission."
In the end, Di Liying gave in to everything, but that didn't mean she compromised. She would definitely get to the bottom of everything and give Haitang'er an explanation.
At that time, she was also young and unable to change the fate of the child. Now, at least she can no longer do nothing.
The middle-aged man in the lead nodded solemnly to Di Liying, then turned around and left with his men. The pursuit of the "Huangquan Zuodao" four-member group and the additional arrest of Haitanger would soon spread throughout the area.
Dawn was watching from the side without saying anything because there was no need.
Haitang'er who was taken away now is just one of his clones. He will transform back in time and then appear as a believer of light. His purpose is to infiltrate the enemy. Tang'er has been staying at home all the time.
No matter what, this matter will not affect Tang'er. Maybe once this happens, Tang'er can even go to the Hero Association to demand accountability.
But these people have really big imaginations.
Liming looked at the Hero Association staff who were leaving. It was really surprising that he couldn't use the curse just by using his clone, and it turned out to be such a drama in the end.
But they are still doing their job conscientiously. If they don't do anything, it would make people feel sad, so just let them do it.
anyway……
Liming turned his gaze to Bai Yong who was lying dead next to him, and the girl who was guarding Bai Yong.
This girl cares about Bai Yong the most. Logically, she should be the one who wants to seek justice for her teacher the most for what happened just now, but she said nothing.
Dawn walked over a few steps, watched from the side, and asked.
"Why don't you join them in asking for justice for Bai Yong regarding what they just said?"
The girl looked at Bai Yong, who looked like a dead person, with a sad and absent-minded look on her face. After Liming started to ask questions, she couldn't help but cover her mouth and cry, her voice choked with sobs.
"I just want the teacher to wake up now, that's all, just... just like this..."
Tears blurred her eyes and her voice gradually became weak.
Di Liying, who was really determined to find out the truth, saw that Leon Lai did not do anything for Haitang'er or Bai Yong, but just provoked the sad girl. She couldn't help but get angry, and for the first time, she looked at Leon Lai with anger.
“You’re still in the mood to care about this!? Tang’er is gone now, the swordsman has become like this, and those criminals are still at large, but you…”
Soon, Di Liying couldn't continue speaking because she saw Liming's indifferent eyes, and her heart tightened as if she was questioned.
"Who was the one who persuaded my man Bai Yong to take the person away?"
"..."
"Tang'er was safe and sound at my house, what on earth caused the accident now?"
"..."
"I am... an ordinary, honest person, and you said that I can't protect others and will be used by others. From the beginning to the end, you have been demanding and forcing me. Now that something has happened, you are going to blame me for not protecting Tang'er? Blame me for not being able to save Bai Yong? Blame me for not being able to catch the criminal?"
"..."
"Hero, you failed in your duty and lost your loved ones, so you just vent your anger on them?"
"..."
Di Liying was silent, speechless. She saw Liming's calm gaze, which seemed to penetrate into her soul, as if questioning her and leaving her nowhere to hide.
Why, when facing such a weak person, did she feel a sense of powerlessness and submission?
That's right, even if she is a super S-level hero, as long as this person looks down on her, she is just a person who can do nothing.
"I lost my temper. I shouldn't have said those words to you." Di Liying lowered her head and apologized.
This scene shocked the people around. Apart from Bai Yong who was already lying dead and Ba Mo Qian Qi who was not the best at fighting, the strongest boss present was beaten by a guy who looked so weak. How could it not be shocking?
Dawn nodded calmly.
"I accept your apology, but isn't it common sense to say you are a pig when you apologize?"
"..."
"?"
"??"
"???"
At this moment, the students nearby were really frightened, and they all stared with wide eyes at this rude and unrestrained guy.
Di Liying was feeling low and humble, and when she heard Liming's words, she nodded without thinking.
"I'm sorry, I'm a pig."
However, Di Liying felt something was wrong as soon as she said this. Suddenly, this sentence crossed her mind: I am a pig?
???
This person...what's wrong with this person? Why did he suddenly ask her to say such things?
Looking up, as expected, the children were all stunned.
At this moment, she suddenly felt heartbroken. She was a teacher admired by so many children, a hero with many achievements and a great reputation. She... this...
He's such a bastard!
Di Liying looked at Liming with anger again.
The young man from the Yama family who was watching all this nearby was also surprised and suspicious when he saw this guy who teased the famous sword princess and looked so casual.
Who is this person? But judging by his outfit and this unfamiliar face, he probably isn't a celebrity.
“Hey, our Eight Demons are still rescuing people. You all should be quiet. Don’t disturb us. The person lying there is Sword Master Bai Yong. If something goes wrong because of you, then…”
Before the young man finished speaking, everyone, including Di Liying, stopped talking. Saving lives was indeed the most important thing now. However, it was a different story for someone who had changed his mind.
"Okay, let me do it."
Liming walked to Bai Yong, who was surrounded by several people and dressed like a corpse, and immediately attracted everyone's attention.
He took out a small bead emitting bright golden light from his arms, and at this moment, it directly attracted the attention of the Eight Demons O Qianqi who was rescuing people.
Originally, Liming wanted Bai Yong to continue lying in the half-dead state until this matter was over and then wake up, but now he changed his focus.
If you want to know the reason, it should be that the young are to be feared.
They're both kind of heroes, and heroes aren't supposed to fall before it's over, so...
Keep up the hard work, heroes of this era.
57.Brother,I think
"What are you going to do to him?"
The young man from the Yama family was the first to stand in front of Liming, staring at him vigilantly.
Although he was just a companion, he knew very well that Ba Mo O Qian Qi and the others could not be disturbed when they were rescuing people, and when someone was causing trouble, it was his turn to take action.
"I am a first-class descendant of the Eight Demons Family of the Holy Light Domain! As long as I am here, you will not be allowed to interfere with them without permission."
When the young man stepped forward, the girl who had been standing by Bai Yong's side also stood in front of Liming. Her pretty face looked pitiful due to her tears, but when she saw what was happening, she still stood in front of Liming like the young man.
Now, those masters are trying their best to save Bai Yong, who is cursed and poisoned. If Bai Yong has a chance to be rescued, but the work in their hands goes wrong due to external affairs, it may become the last straw that breaks the camel's back.
When the other students around saw this scene, they all looked at Di Liying next to her. No matter what, this person was known to Di Liying, and only Di Liying knew him.
This person looks idle and cynical, but he seems to be just being casual.
Now, he is going to interfere with the master of the Eight Demons family who is trying to rescue people. This is very problematic. Is it really okay for Di Liying to let him stay here?
Di Liying was also frightened by Liming's actions. Although she didn't know what Liming was thinking when he took out a golden bead, it was obvious that he was going to find Bai Yong.
Bai Yong is in a life-and-death situation now. If he misses the chance to be rescued by the masters of the Eight Demons Family and is manipulated by Liming, won’t his soul be destroyed on the spot?
"Don't go over there, you are saving people."
In a flash, Di Liying grabbed Liming's hand the next moment, fearing that he would really do something wrong. Now she has already harmed Tang'er, and felt that she couldn't let anything happen to the guy Tang'er liked.
Otherwise, she really wouldn't have the face to see Tang'er.
Li Ming was stopped just as he was about to approach Bai Yong. He also saw the serious and angry face of Bai Yong's little fangirl. He couldn't help feeling helpless and waved the divine light in his hand.
"Don't be nervous. This is a recipe passed down from our ancestors. It can cure any curse. It works in a second."
"Are you kidding me?" The young man from the Eight Demons looked at Liming with disdain, feeling that Liming's words were shameless. "The swordsman has been cursed too deeply, and it's difficult for several masters to cure him. You say that a bead can save him. Are you trying to fool us?"
