Chapter 16 The Bloodless Punishment

Zhe Yu turned her gaze to Nanyun, and her tone was faint: "Then, it's time for you to answer the question now. Are you loyal to the Academy or the Dark Flame?"

After asking this question, Zhe Yu's right hand stood up again, bent her thumb, and then her index finger.

“…”

Nanyun's tall chest was undulating rapidly. He looked at Zhe Yu, then turned to look at An Yan, his eyes turned around on the faces of the two, but he never answered the question.

Zhu Yu's right hand had already bent to his middle finger. He still had a faint smile on his face, and his eyes were faintly looking at Nanyun.

Finally, Nanyun could no longer bear such harsh pressure. He suddenly screamed, kicked his feet hard on the ground, and drew a black shadow like an arrow, rushing out of the house at full speed.

The two floor-to-ceiling glass doors were opened by Zhu Yu when he came in. As long as he could rush out of the living room, he might have a chance to survive.

Nan Yun's jump had already exhausted his speed. Zhu Yu, who was still sitting on the sofa, did not make any moves of force at all. Even if he wanted to intercept, he might not be able to stop him.

What's more... If Zhe Yu pursues Nan Yun, he will risk being escaped by the remaining two people in the house. The importance of the dark flame is obviously far higher than that of Nan YN Yun. He thought that Zhe Yu would never lose his big fish, the big fish of the dark flame, and chase him.

As long as... as long as she can escape to the garden, her life will be saved!

Unfortunately, Nanyun's wishful thinking was finally lost.

She did go through the glass door smoothly and rushed into the garden, but just rushed halfway and before she could reach the wall, she hit an invisible wall.

Just as Li Qin attacked Zhe Yu just now, Nan Yun was also heavily shocked by the invisible wall. But even more unfortunately, Li Qin waved his fist, and Nan Yun touched the wall with his face.

A shrill scream rang out, and Nanyun flew high, was shaken back into the house, and landed in front of Zheyu.

Zhe Yu lowered her head slightly, sighed lightly, and looked at Nanyun: "Answer my question. If you don't want to die, this is the only way. You still have..."

Zhu Yu's ring finger was also bent, and only his little finger remained standing: "You have five seconds left."

"I...I am loyal to the college! It's the college!"

Nanyun's face was covered in blood and his eyes were full of fear. He rolled up from the ground for half a circle, stared at Zheyu, and screamed: "It's the college! I'm loyal to the college! I've always been loyal to the college! Lord Zheyu! What I'm loyal to is the school..."

Nanyun's voice suddenly stopped, and the eyeballs in her eyes suddenly raised, and then she gasped in a hurry, opening her mouth wide, but she couldn't squeeze out a word. It was still obvious that her mouth shape was still trying hard to make the two words "Academic".

Her towering chest was also tightly grasped and torn, but she could not stop her heart from beating wildly faster and faster. Her fair face turned red because of the rapid congestion, and turned purple bit by bit.

"I'm sorry, she lied." Zhe Yu raised her head and looked at An Yan and Li Qin with a helpless expression: "I have said it a long time ago. You must be honest when answering my questions."

An Yan looked at Nan Yun who was struggling dyingly on the ground with his eyes astonished, and his heart began to be beating violently. But this was not because of Zhu Yu's ability, but because of his inner tension.

Zhu Yu... What did this guy... do to Nanyun and Gao Fei!

An Yan was constantly spinning his brain, recalling everything he had heard, and there were rumors about this mysterious inspector.

But no matter how you search in your memory, Anyan couldn't find any rumors about the ability of Zheyu.

All he knew was that the surveillance officer was responsible for internal supervision and had little contact with any outside world, especially for all possible betrayals.

What's even more outrageous is that no one has seen him take action.

Anyone who was targeted by Zhe Yu would die without exception after accepting his in-person inquiry.

But no one knew how Zheyu killed them.

"It's your time." Zhe Yu raised his head and looked at Li Qin: "Same, answer me, is it the academy or the dark flame you are loyal to?"

Li Qin clenched his fists and loosened them, then clenched them again, and repeated cycles.

His eyes stared at Zhe Yu's right hand, as he watched the fingers bend down one by one.

When Zhe Yu had two fingers left, Li Qin finally spoke quickly.

"I... I was originally loyal to Lord Anyan... loyal to Anyan. But from today, I will be loyal to the academy all my heart!"

After quickly speaking a series of answers, Li Qin's whole body trembled, and he looked at Zhe Yu nervously, never looking at An Yan again.

But this time, his heart did not beating faster and faster as Gao Fei and Nanyun until it exploded, but was still beating at a steady speed.

One second, two seconds, three seconds passed, and no abnormality occurred.

It seemed that this time, his answer finally satisfied Zhe Yu and did not launch an invisible attack on him again.

But Dan Yan, who was still standing beside him, looked as ugly as a corpse.

"Very good. Your answer is honest." Zhe Yu nodded with a smile and put down his right hand: "So, can you be honest with every answer I answer from now on?"

"I can...I can...Inspector Zhuyu." Li Qin nodded hurriedly.

"Okay, then go ahead. But remember, if what you gave is not an honest answer, then..." Zhe Yu glanced at the dark Yan beside her, then turned her head and continued to look at Li Qin: "You should know what will happen."

"I know...Sir, the inspector." Li Qin said tremblingly.

Zheyu nodded: "Very good. Tell me if Zi Yan was killed by Dark Flame."

Li Qin looked at An Yan carefully and moved two steps in the opposite direction: "Yes... it was An Yan Yan killed. However, I was not present last night when I ambushed Zi Yan. An Yan arranged other tasks, so he only brought three other people to participate in the assassination, and they were all dead..."

This time, Zhe Yu did not stretch out his fingers, but continued to ask: "So, why did Anyan kill Ziyan?"

Li Qin hesitated for a moment and immediately replied: "Because Zi Yan had obtained a certain seed position before, but he had never reported it to the academy. After An Yan learned about this, he wanted to... grab it."

"Well. It's still the truth." Zhe Yu nodded and continued to ask: "What did Zi Yan say before she died?"

"This... I don't know either." Li Qinwei said: "I was not at the scene at that time. I just heard An Yan say that Zi Yan and the boy named Jiang Xiao fled together, but she was seriously injured at that time, far beyond her recovery ability. So although she knew that she must have died, she didn't know exactly when and where she died, nor did she know what she said to Jiang Xiao before her death. It was just..."

Li Qin thought for a while: "It's just that An Yan speculated that there was not much time before her death, so she would never have enough to contact other insiders of the academy. So if she planned to tell someone the location of the seed, it would be Jiang Xiao."

"So he arranged for you to search Jiang Xiao in the whole city? But it's a pity that you are too late. Because Jiang Xiao... has informed me of the location of the seed." Zhe Yu smiled slightly, and at the end, he looked at Anyan: "So, Anyan, do you want to try it out and pry out the information about the seed from my mouth?"

An Yan just groaned but didn't answer. Even Li Qin's blatant betrayal of him just now seemed to turn a blind eye.

The death of Gao Fei and Nanyun, as well as their attack or escape, had no effect at all. This situation was something he had not seen in his life, but he had never even thought about it.

Since Zhe Yu came to his residence late at night, he asked Li Qin a series of questions. It is obvious that Jiang Xiao had already had contact with him and told Zhe Yu about everything. So for Zhe Yu, the questions raised to Li Qin are just to prove it. No matter how Li Qin answered it, it would not affect the current situation and Zhe Yu's judgment.

So now, on the contrary, I hope that Zheyu can ask Li Qin more questions and spend more time. After all, the longer it delays, the more likely it is to turn around.

Now, An Yan looked at Zhe Yu's movements without any distraction for a moment, and did not miss every word he said.

As for the betrayal that Li Qin chose in the end, it was not worth mentioning at all.

"Okay, Li Qin, you wait first. Next, it's our Deacon of the Dark Flame to answer my question." Unfortunately, Zhe Yu did not continue to ask Li Qin again, but turned to Dark Flame, with a warm smile on her face.

"Yes, Lord Inspector."

Li Qin didn't dare to talk too much, so he just hung his hands on both sides of his body, took two steps back, lowered his head and stood straight.

This inspector... hasn't said half a word of forgiveness or pardon...

After An Yan was dealt with... his fate was still unknown.

At the same time, Anyan's heart began to tighten.

Although he had been thinking for a long time, he still couldn't figure out what method Zheyu used to attack Nanyun and Gao Fei.

Whether it was Nanyun or Gao Fei, at the moment when he was suddenly attacked, An Yan saw clearly that Zhe Yu had no movement except for the flexion and extension of his fingers.

Facing Li Qin's punch and Nan Yun trying to escape, Zhe Yu also sat on the sofa, relaxing her whole body against the backrest.

Whether it is attack, defense, or pursuit, does Zheyu not need to make any moves?

Escape, you cannot escape. Attack, you cannot break. What's more important is, how should you defend against an attack that is silent and without any signs?

"What are you thinking, Anyan?" Zhe Yu stretched out his hand, snapped his fingers, and his expression was relaxed and happy: "Didn't you hear it? I'm going to ask you a question."

An Yan took a deep breath, but did not make any attacks. Instead, he simply sat down and looked straight at Zheyu with his eyes: "Ask."

He... intends to take a bet.

Although his guess was too illusory, at this time, if he didn't gamble, there would be no hope.

"You want to get the map of the seed position that Zi Yan has in his hands, so he ambushed her, right?"

As the question was made, Zhe Yu's right hand was raised again and stretched out again. But this time, An Yan did not hesitate at all. Before Zhe Yu's first finger was bent, he replied simply: "Yes. I killed Zi Yan just for the seeds."

Seeing An Yan's answer so readily, Zhe Yu's face was slightly surprised and continued to ask: "But you don't know whether Zi Yan's seed map is true, right?"

"That's right." An Yan continued to nod.

"Did you have any accomplices in this matter except your subordinates?"

"No."

Zhe Yu nodded, suddenly leaned forward, staring at Anyan: "So, do you know why Zi Yan didn't report the map of seeds to the college?"

This time, An Yan did not answer immediately, but sat upright and collided with Zhu Yu's eyes.

And this time, until Zhe Yu's finger bent to his middle finger, he slowly said, "I... don't know."

When An Yan answered, Zhe Yu stared at An Yan without a moment of gaze. Until he finished answering, he sighed almost imperceptibly: "Okay. Then, if you really succeed in getting the seed map, you will not report it to me or the dean, but plan to go to the location where the seed is and obtain the power contained therein, right?"

"Yes." An Yan stared at Zhe Yu's fingers and nodded and replied.

"So, if the seeds really exist and you have successfully found the seeds and gained their strength, what are you going to do?"

An Yan laughed and his voice suddenly became louder: "What are you doing? What else can you do? Of course, it is to rely on this power to get more things! I want to stand at the top of all awakened people and let everything surrender to my feet! Isn't this idea so normal?"

"Sure enough...so..." Zhe Yugang was halfway through, but suddenly was interrupted by An Yan: "Wait! Answer my question first! Zhe Yu, before you came to me today, you have reported to the dean that I killed Zi Yan!"

At this time, both sides clearly had the upper hand, suppressing the entire scene. However, An Yan's stern question seemed to be full of confidence, and it was definitely not a stern look on the inside.

What was even more surprising was that Zhe Yu... did not continue his question, but stared at An Yan, with surprise and anger in his eyes.
