It seems like someone is secretly controlling it.
Or maybe, it's not people who are causing trouble, but something else? She has seen a lot of demons, and seeing that there is one beside her, what else is impossible
What is certain is that that person must have enmity with the Qin family and the Wang family. Suddenly, a person's deep and horrified but complicated eyes appeared in his mind, and a question arose in his mind: Does that person have anything to do with this matter
The master in gray clothes stood up and said loudly: "Who knows if you escaped from prison yesterday, committed a crime and killed someone, and then came back quietly to cover up your crimes?"
"That's right. If you think about it carefully, it is indeed the case." Ye Xingtong nodded in agreement: "If I were the murderer, I would never be as brainless as Master."
The master smiled instead of getting angry: "So is the girl planning to admit her crime?"
"I'm just saying that what you said makes sense. I will never admit anything I haven't done. Now that it's reached this point, I don't want to talk nonsense with you. What you want is for the Qingming Festival to be passed down through generations. What I want is to eliminate We all have the same purpose of finding out the truth of the matter."
Ye Xingtong looked at the sitting magistrate, lowered his head, and said seriously: "Sir, please give Min Nu three days. Min Nu will definitely catch the murderer, clear her name, and clear your name."
The magistrate hesitated and turned his attention to the master who always returned to him.
The master understood and said in a low voice: "Sir, this woman has bad intentions and is aggressive in the hall, which makes you lose face. If you let her go, it will be like letting the tiger go back to the mountain! I don't know what kind of storm will be caused here. Sir, you must not let her go. "
The county magistrate nodded thoughtfully: "You're right. We didn't expect the other party to be so strong, eloquent and eloquent at first. We have offended her now. If we let her go, we will inevitably suffer consequences in the future. We bring some negative influence, but looking at her noble and dignified and elegant temperament, she doesn’t look like an ordinary person. If she has some powerful backers, can we afford to offend her?"
The master said: "That's why we can't let her go. Seeing that she doesn't even want to reveal her real name, she must not want other people to know her identity. We don't know either. The so-called ignorance is not guilty. If she Even if she is dead, she can't do anything to us even if she has a backer, because she killed someone and we don't know who she is."
The magistrate narrowed his eyes: "Brilliant."
He coughed and shouted: "There are still many doubts about this matter. Take the two of them down first and try again at another day."
Ye Xingtong had time to blink at Wu Ye, who looked at her expressionlessly and said, "Nervous."
Ye Xingtong glared at him in confusion: "To each other."
Wu Ye underestimated her, right? If you can't even solve this trivial matter, where are your heroic words
She was just not in a hurry. The person yesterday made her full of doubts. She wanted to go back and see if she could find some clues.
Besides, you can come out at night and pry more!
Although... it's a bit dangerous.
But she is naturally adventurous, and the more adventurous she is, the more interesting she is, right
He was soon taken back to the prison, but it was not that cell anymore, and the person didn’t know where he was
Ye Xingtong was depressed. She came back specifically for that person. If that person was gone, would it still be interesting for her to be here
Fortunately, she remembered the direction she was walking in and the locations of the cells. The person's place should not be that far from here!
After tidying up a little, enduring the unpleasant smell of the prison that had remained unchanged for thousands of years, Ye Xingtong sat on the only broken wooden floor in the cell, sat cross-legged next to him jokingly, put his hands on his chest, and said to Wu Ye, who was about to practice, joked: "You believe so much that I can solve it alone. Aren't you afraid that if I can't deal with those bastards, I'll hurt you?"
Wu Ye just smiled softly when he heard this: "Are you joking now?"
A faint smile appeared on the delicate pink face, as pure and flawless as a hundred flowers in bloom, and beautiful.
"Yes!" Ye Xingtong nodded, raised his eyebrows and smiled: "I have nothing to do lately, so I just joked around."
The topic changed and he fell into deep thought: "I originally thought I would be imprisoned in the same prison as yesterday, but now it is out of my control."
Wu Ye caught Ye Xingtong's troubled look and felt like an ant in his heart, and said casually: "I can help you."
"I knew it!" Ye Xingtong looked at Wu Ye with a faint smile, a hint of cunning flashing in his eyes.
Wu Ye is a demon, so he must have magical powers that no one else can possess. There is absolutely no problem in asking him for help.
But before she could think of how to speak, Wu Ye automatically brought it up, which really surprised her.
This guy didn't seem to be as resistant to her as before, which was a good sign. She was originally worried that if the two of them lived together, how would they live peacefully in the future if they were incompatible with each other.
Now it seems that her worries are unnecessary.
Wu Ye looked at Ye Xingtong's smiling face and felt as if he had been plotted by Ye Xingtong. His face felt like it was burning and he awkwardly looked away, turning his back to Ye Xingtong to practice.
He is just a mortal. He doesn't look at dirty mortals and doesn't care about them. He is the supreme master of the demon world. One day, he will no longer be controlled by Ye Xingtong.
Ye Xingtong curled his lips, full of hope for the future.
Things always work out for the best.
At midnight, most of the jailers guarding the door were drowsy, and those who were not asleep just held on and dozed like tadpoles.
Ye Xingtong suddenly opened a pair of eyes as bright as stars, shining a glimmer of hope into the dark prison.
Pulling Wu Ye's sleeves, Wu Ye also opened his eyes while meditating and looked at Ye Xingtong.
The eyes seemed to be shining with fire, dazzling and brilliant, the butterfly-like eyelashes were beating mischievously and tremblingly, and the lightning mark on the forehead also glowed faintly red at this time, shining brightly.
Ye Xingtong's heart beat for a moment. She had only one thought in her mind: Wu Ye's eyes were so beautiful. She had never seen such beautiful eyes.
"Do you still want to investigate?" Wu Ye's faint voice sounded, and Ye Xingtong realized that he had lost his composure. He was just a child, so he was almost stunned. People said that evil foxes bring harm to people, so he should pay less attention to Wu Ye in the future. Well, don't be confused by him.
"Go, of course." Ye Xingtong straightened his body and said righteously, so that he could gain some momentum and dilute his embarrassing behavior just now.
"Then let's go!" Wu Ye took Ye Xingtong's arm, and as soon as the red light appeared, the two of them arrived at the prison of the scary-looking man.
Suddenly he changed places and looked around. Ye Xingtong had some strange feelings in his heart. Is this the legendary spell? As expected, it is different from martial arts in the human world. Even the most powerful martial arts will never be able to move directly through obstacles instantly.
But time did not allow her to stay here for long. The man's face was covered by a mess of loose hair. With a gentle move, a ferocious face was revealed. He was supporting the wall on the grass-padded floor. After struggling on the bed for a long time, he finally struggled to sit up and raised his eyes to look at Ye Xingtong. His eyes were calm and showed no emotion.
Ye Xingtong also looked at him and smiled slightly at him.
Seeing that the man refused to admit defeat and wanted to sit upright but couldn't, I felt pity in my heart. Seeing his stubborn expression, I didn't step forward to stop him.
"Since I came to the prison, I have noticed that you look at me differently. I guessed two reasons. One is that you already know me, but I think this is impossible because I have never been here before. After this, that's the last reason. You have something to ask me for help, or maybe you know something about the unjust case I was involved in. Of course, these are all my guesses. Uncle, if you have anything to say, you might as well say it directly. , since God has arranged for us to meet, I will not postpone it if you can help me." Ye Xingtong said with a smile, her sincerity can be seen in her words.
Seeing that the man didn't speak and just looked at him, Ye Xingtong felt a little weird. What was going on with this man? She had already made her words very clear, but why was this person still looking at her as if he wanted to speak but didn't? Could it be that her guess was wrong? Did that person just want to stare at me out of curiosity? Such an idea was unbelievable to her.
It would be better to look at her than to look at Wu Ye, who is even more beautiful than a girl and is blessed by nature. If he is not much prettier than me, this is obviously not the reason.
"Uncle, do you think there is something unspeakable?" Ye Xingtong saw that he had not spoken and tried to get suspicious.
Unexpectedly, the man shook his head, flapped his lips, and let out a low sob. Although his face was mottled, the suppressed sadness and pain in his heart could be seen from his eyes. The corners of his eyes were already stained. moist.
Tears followed the blood and stains on his face and stayed on his dirty and tattered clothes, making him look even more miserable. A down-and-out beggar was probably much better than him.
The low sobs of "Woo" sounded like ghosts in this dark prison, and the breath in the air seemed to condense together.
Wu Ye casually cast a barrier to prevent outsiders from discovering what was going on here.
Could it be... Is this a mute? He looks really similar.
A strange thought suddenly came into Ye Xingtong's mind.
Otherwise, how to explain what just happened? Thinking of this, a trace of disappointment flashed across Ye Xingtong's eyes.
"He is mute!" Wu Ye said calmly, as if he was saying something very ordinary.
The guess was confirmed, and Ye Xingtong's heart sank. She thought she could get some clues from here, and find some clues about the murderer to clear her name. It turned out that the other party was just a mute. What can a mute say? It seems that this matter is going to slow down a bit.
