Chapter 135 Interrogation
Su Mu smiled slightly. He probably understood why Sikong Zhen came to investigate. The nobles would also be moved by the value of the mithril mine. It is not difficult to imagine that Qian Zihao would definitely send a large amount of funds to the Sikong family every year to gain asylum. , now that Qian Zihao is dead, the Sikong family will naturally find a new agent to take over the mithril mine.
Of course, Qian Zihao couldn't just send money to the Sikong family. Other nobles in the imperial capital and even various departments would also have some contact with each other. The exchange of favors was never a straight line, but a complicated network.
There was probably a small game among the nobles of the imperial capital about who to send to Star City to investigate this time. In the end, the Sikong family came out victorious and came to harvest wealth while also investigating the seven deadly sins of arrogance.
"Let's go to the Law Enforcement Bureau. Don't keep the distinguished guests from the imperial capital waiting." Su Mu slowly got up from the sofa, elegantly arranged his slightly wrinkled clothes, picked up the snake grain wood cane, and started talking to Nangong Mengli. left.
Star City Law Enforcement Bureau, interrogation room.
The lights were dim, and a direct light was turned on throughout the interrogation room, shining directly in the center.
The central location was empty except for a seat made of mithril alloy. This seat was cast together with the ground and looked very solid.
Murong Yun was blinded by the light. His body was restrained on the mithril alloy seat. Looking at the several blurry figures hidden in the darkness beyond the light, he felt inexplicably nervous.
This was the first time he had entered the law enforcement bureau in this manner. Normally, he would have been dissatisfied. But when he heard that it was Sikong Zhen who gave the order, he could only suppress his dissatisfaction.
It is true that he is a noble, but nobles are also divided into three, six, and nine grades. If Murong Zhuo is still alive, the Murong family may be a bit thin in front of the nobles of the imperial capital, but now...
"Murong Yun, tell me in detail what happened. Tell me everything you know. Don't hide anything."
In the darkness, Mu Lingxi's cold voice sounded.
Murong Yun took a look at the other party. Although the other party's figure was hidden in the darkness, as a second-level silver transcendent, he could naturally see it clearly.
She is a beauty.
Beauty is not important. He has plenty of them. What really matters to him is the identity of the other party. As a law enforcement captain from the General Administration of Law Enforcement, when a beauty has an aura of high status and authority, it really makes him feel a little itchy.
Of course, now he only dares to itch.
All this is because of pressure from the golden aristocracy.
Murong Yun began to honestly describe what happened. He told it in great detail and embellished it to a certain extent. He didn't want people to know that when his father died, he was like a fool and didn't dare to move.
From time to time, he looks sad and angry, acting like a victim who lost his father.
Mu Lingxi listened expressionlessly while the Law Enforcement Bureau staff on the side kept recording.
"Captain Mu, I've said all I know. You must find Arrogance and avenge my father. He is an imperial noble. He..."
Before Murong Yun finished speaking, he was interrupted by Mu Lingxi: "As far as I know, arrogance once possessed you? Why didn't you say this?"
Murong Yun's heart skipped a beat, and the expression on his face became slightly stiff: "I forgot for a moment, but it was not possession, he just came out of me, he... he was like a ghost, as if he had no entity, There was nothing wrong with me at the time, and I checked after I returned and found that I was indeed fine.”
"A ghost? Other witnesses said that the head of the Murong family had suspected that Arrogance was not an entity but an illusion. What do you think of this?"
Murong Yun shook his head repeatedly: "How could it be an illusion? How could there be such a real illusion in this world? I saw Arrogance killing people with my own eyes. He killed many people, and the method was very weird. With just a finger, anyone he pointed at would die. Even my father, he just waved his hand and let his head fall to the ground.”
When Murong Yun talked about his father, he began to choke up unconsciously and his eye circles turned red.
"The reason why my father made this judgment was because he was arrogant and could not walk without wind. He was harmed by his inherent experience. The golden strong man can perfectly restrain all his aura and integrate with the surrounding environment. It is not difficult to walk without wind. ”
"Do you think arrogance is a golden transcendent?" Mu Lingxi narrowed her eyes.
Murong Yun looked a little excited: "Of course it's a golden transcendent. Can't a golden transcendent achieve this level? You don't know that at that time he said that he had had enough fun and planned to be more serious, and then his powerful momentum directly affected The lights in the banquet hall made the lights strobe.
Strange murmurs were heard all around, and many guests died on the spot just because they heard the sound. What else could this be if it wasn't a golden transcendent? Who can do it except the golden transcendent? "
What he said was an exaggeration. In fact, the snake god's raving did not kill the guests at that time. At most, it gave ordinary people a splitting headache or fainting. After all, it was a raving imitated by [Natural Silence], and its power was limited.
But Murong Yun still had to exaggerate, because only the stronger Arrogance is, the more powerful he is, so he will not appear incompetent. If Arrogance is a silver transcendent, how can the entire Murong family raise its head in the aristocratic circle?
When the time comes, it will be spread outside, have you heard? The Murong family held a banquet on their own territory, and a silver extraordinary person came to the door. Not only did he kill the head of the Murong family with one move, but he also frightened the entire Murong family so that no one dared to move.
"Thank you for your cooperation. Someone, please take Mr. Murong Yun down for a physical examination."
Murong Yun's face changed slightly: "Didn't I say that? I have asked someone to conduct a comprehensive examination after I returned..."
He began to protest. After all, no one likes to have their body moved around by someone they don't know, especially if some extraordinary means are used, there might be some sequelae.
However, no one paid attention to his protest. This Star City noble was not good enough in front of the real golden noble.
After Murong Yun was taken away, the staff member next to him asked: "Captain Mu, the polygraph just sounded several alarms. Murong Yun lied in many places, especially when he expressed his grief for his father."
Mu Lingxi's mouth curled up with a hint of sarcasm: "I have seen a lot of this kind of stuff. He wishes that the head of the Murong family would die sooner and then inherit the entire family. I don't care about the bullshit between the nobles. I have only one purpose for coming here, which is to catch arrogance.
Bring the next one in."
Soon, Nangong Mengli, who was dressed in plain clothes and without makeup on her face, walked into the interrogation room. Her appearance made Mu Lingxi narrow her eyes slightly.
After Nangong Mengli sat on the interrogation chair, Mu Lingxi began to ask questions.
"Ms. Murong, I heard that you are the only one in the entire banquet who dares to stand up and question the arrogant person?"
