Chapter 71: Mysteries in the Prison(1/2)
"Open."
A few of us came to the cell where the godly servant who was caught by Tianjun and admitted to releasing the God-killing Flower in the God Realm was imprisoned.
The guard next to Xiao Yiming's cell opened the door.
After opening the door, we saw the priest in the prison sitting motionless with his back to us.
Xiaoyi walked up and patted the man on the back, "Hey!"
As a result, as soon as Xiaoyi's hand touched the divine attendant, the divine attendant fell directly to the ground, and then turned into nothingness in front of all of us.
"This." Xiaoyi stopped in place and looked at us a little surprised.
Changli took a step forward and took a closer look. There was nothing left. He was only sitting on the ground with a seal and said coldly, "Dead."
Bai Ze then chuckled, "What a coincidence."
"Ah! This!"
The magic soldier guarding the cell door immediately ran in in panic when he saw this, and repeatedly checked the empty cell.
"What's going on?" I asked seriously looking at the magic soldier who came in.
The divine soldier immediately knelt on the ground facing me and said with a horrified expression, "Emperor, I forgive you, I don't know, young general! Everything was fine before. Why is it... like this!"
The divine soldier was a little panicked as he looked at the place where the divine servant disappeared.
"Has anyone come to see him before we came?" I looked at the soldier and asked.
"This..." The soldier looked unbelievable, as if he was thinking, and then said: "No more!"
"Are you sure?" I stared at the soldier and asked again.
"You're sure not, I've been..."
The soldier guarding the cell door was mid-sentence, then thought for a moment and said, "Ah, it seems that Mr. Takami came when we were changing shifts yesterday."
"Yingwei?" Bai Ze seemed to have an unusual reaction when he heard this name.
"Yes. And then there is the God of War." The soldier knelt on the ground, looked at Bai Ze, and then pointed to Xiao Yi beside him in a panic.
After Xiaoyi heard this, he immediately looked at me and said with a somewhat serious expression, "I just came in, and you are already here, Emperor."
Indeed, when we opened the door, Xiaoyi was not far from the door, as if he was walking inside, and then came in with us.
"Is there anyone else?" I asked the soldier.
The soldier had a lawsuit look on his face and said in a panic, "No, there are only a few people coming to the prison."
After hearing what the soldier said, I took a breath and turned to look at Bai Ze, who had a unique reaction when he heard the name just now, "Who is Takami?"
Bai Ze said, "I have been following my father God's personal bodyguard as long as I can remember."
"Personal guard?" I asked doubtfully.
"Yes." Bai Ze replied firmly.
"But I haven't seen any personal bodyguards around your father God these days since I've been back." I looked at Bai Ze and said something that I didn't quite understand.
"This..." Bai Ze frowned, indicating that he didn't know, "I don't know either. Before I left the God Realm, Ying Wei seemed to have been following my father."
"Ah, it seems that Mr. Yingwei was no longer with Tianjun three days ago." Xiaoyi on the side suddenly spoke at this time.
When I heard what Xiaoyi said, I glanced at Xiaoyi and thought to myself: Three days ago, if we count it as a day in the sky and a year on earth, then that would be the days that Bai Ze and I were in the human world before I returned to the God Realm.
Seeing my confusion, Bai Ze immediately added, "Ying Wei is Father God's personal guard. When he travels, he usually has to receive Father God's orders. I will ask Father God now."
Bai Ze quickly finished speaking and immediately left the prison.
Judging from Bai Ze's appearance, I guessed that he must have a good relationship with Mr. Takami, that's why he was so anxious.
After all, he is the bodyguard who has been by his father's side for as long as he can remember.
However, for some reason I always feel like there is something weird in my heart. But I can’t put it right at the moment.
I stood there and kept thinking about anything I had missed.
Xiaoyi suddenly saluted me again from beside me, "Emperor, the person that the little god is looking for is gone. Now the clues are broken. The little god needs to find new clues as soon as possible and re-investigate. The god should also go down first."
Resigned."
I looked at Xiaoyi, and with some doubts still in my mind, I responded slowly, "Yeah."
Then Xiaoyi also left, and Changli and I were the only ones left in this cell.
Chang Li walked around the cell, and then sighed: "We were just about to find this person, but he disappeared. Isn't it a coincidence?"
I was still thinking about things in my mind and nodded silently, "Yes, what a coincidence."
After saying that, I saw the soldier guarding the cell who was still kneeling on the ground, so I said softly, "Get up first."
"Thank you, Emperor." The soldier wiped the sweat from his forehead and then stood up.
I looked at the soldier in front of me who seemed to have a guilty expression, and silently thought about what I felt was wrong: This soldier seemed nervous and a little scared from the beginning. This made me suspicious.
"You are the soldier guarding the cell here, so last night, you confirmed that you saw Mr. Takami coming here to find him, right?" I asked the soldier again, staring closely at him.
The soldier stood in front of me, glanced down, seemed to think carefully, and then said hesitantly: "Well... I'm actually not sure, because when I changed my shift last night, I was in front
I met Mr. Takami in the corridor of the squad cell. At that time, I saw him walking inside, but inside... you also saw that there is indeed more than one prisoner." The soldier pointed to the corner on the side where he came in from the door.
said the corridor.
Chang Li, who was checking the cell out of boredom, immediately looked at the soldier speechlessly and said softly: "Then you just said so sure."
The soldier quickly lowered his head and said tremblingly, "The sinner died inexplicably just now. I'm afraid of the emperor's punishment, so when I get nervous, I just think of something and say something."
"It doesn't matter." I sighed softly, whispered to the soldier, and then began to rearrange my thoughts.
In other words, the soldier did not see with his own eyes that Mr. Takami came to the cell to find this person, and Mr. Takami came last night, and the godly servant just disappeared... But why did the soldier mention another person?
"hiss--"
I felt a headache and touched my forehead and looked at the soldier, "That's not right. Aren't you on duty inside today?"
The soldier nodded and replied, "Yes."
"But you just said, 'Then there will be the God of War.' Didn't the God of War come from the gate with us?" I looked at the magic soldier and asked with a frown.
After hearing what I asked, the soldier obviously had a lot of sweat on his forehead, and his expression began to panic.
Chang Li glanced at me and understood immediately. Seeing the situation, he took a step closer to the soldier and scolded him in an extremely cold tone, "What's the matter with you?"
The soldier immediately knelt on the ground in fear, "Emperor, I forgive you, Immortal Lord! Yes, it was the villain who was lazy. Before you came, villain, villain, I went to rest in the corridor ahead. I didn't mean to lie.
, this, this villain really didn’t know when something happened. He was afraid that he would be punished for being lazy. This villain... it was at that time that I saw the God of War. Your Majesty, please forgive me!"
The soldier knelt down and kept kowtowing as he spoke.
Seeing that the soldier was so scared, Changli and I couldn't help but were stunned for a moment and then laughed.
I thought it was because I was hiding something, but it turned out to be because I was lazy at work!
This made me wonder, isn't laziness a normal part of working life? What's the big deal? I'm so panicked!
He was afraid that if something happened to the prisoner when he was lazy, he would not be able to escape responsibility. But blaming him now would not help. It would be better to ask the question clearly first, and other punishments would be dealt with later.
I thought this in my heart, and then I couldn't help but laugh again when I saw the soldier who was so panicked that he was kneeling on the ground and stuttering.
"You should get up first. I'm not going to blame you for this. You should get up first and answer." I said to the soldier.
The soldier raised his head, looked at me and Changli to confirm that we really wouldn't punish him, and then stood up again tremblingly.
I returned to the subject and began to tell the soldier what he had seen.
"According to what you said, Xiaoyi did come before us, but..."
As I was talking, I thought that when the Tianlao door was opened, due to the light problem, although Xiaoyi seemed to be walking inside, something did seem wrong.
So I thought about it and asked the soldier again, "When did you get lazy? Can you tell how long it took for the God of War to come in?"
"This..." The little soldier looked at me with some doubts and then began to recall seriously.
…
"So Xiaoyi actually got in before us. Based on the time that soldier was lazy, Xiaoyi shouldn't have just walked to the front of the gate." Changli tried to recruit and intimidated the soldiers a little, and then we walked out of the cell.
As soon as I came out, Changli began to analyze beside me.
This night, my mind seemed to be filled with half a dozen things at once, none of them complete and clear, which was very unpleasant.
After hearing what Changli said, I just kept thinking about it, and followed my own thoughts and murmured in Changli's voice:
"Yes, the little soldier was lazy enough for Xiaoyi to go in and kill him, and then he came out and walked to that position..."
As soon as these words came out, both Changli and I were shocked. Changli and I stopped at the same time and looked at each other in surprise.
"According to this, if it was Xiaoyi, he was actually going out at that time, but he bumped into us and couldn't help but pretend to come in again?"
I reacted to what I just said for a long time, and then stared at the equally surprised Chang Li next to me in shock and surprise.
Chang Li looked at me with a shocked expression and whispered, "Ling'er, he is the God of War in the God Realm now. Is it really okay for us to analyze it like this?"
Ling'er?
