The one-eyed deputy and the other three finally answered all the questions honestly.
At the same time, they also admitted that they had seen the messenger. However, they were not sure whether the messenger was sent by the Ministry of Water Engineering. Maybe it was directed and acted by Bachelor Gong Lei?
Of course, Grand Bachelor Xinhuo obviously did not ignore this small detail, and he did not believe that it was directed and performed by Grand Bachelor Gong Lei.
The chief bachelor has made it very clear that Ging Lei has no motive to target the teleportation formation. If he wanted to target the teleportation formation, why would he have sent out a transmission note a day earlier to describe the blueprint for expanding the teleportation formation?
Therefore, it can be basically concluded that this messenger was definitely not directed and arranged by Grand Master Gong Lei himself.
So, who is this messenger? Who sent him?
There were very few people who had seen the messenger at that time, including these deputies.
"If you think about it carefully, what were the characteristics of the messenger at that time?"
It didn't happen long ago and it's not difficult to recall it.
The one-eyed deputy thought for a moment and said: "That messenger is different from the ordinary. Although he looked respectful to Grand Master Ging Lei on the surface, it could be seen that he did not have the awe of ordinary people. On the contrary, he was very respectful.
He is bold, but also behaves very calmly in front of Grand Master Ging Lei. That feeling is very strange..."
"It was as if he was acting against a script. His performance was too calm and calm, and he didn't look like a messenger running errands at all."
"By the way, he came to see Grand Bachelor Gong Lei, and he holds the talisman of the Bachelor of Hydraulic Engineering."
Archmaester Xinhuo's eyes narrowed: "How come I haven't heard you talk about such important information before? Have you ever checked the talisman?"
The three deputies looked at each other in confusion. They were all bachelors, and they were the deputies of the grand bachelor of Ginglei. They were definitely high-level officials. How could the three of them do this kind of verification of the command talisman in person?
As if he had grasped something important, Archmaester Xinhuo asked: "Can the person who verified the command talisman before be still found?"
The one-eyed deputy hurriedly said: "It's not difficult. They are all the personal guard battalion of Grand Master Ging Lei. We just need to investigate who was on duty that day."
It was indeed not difficult to find, and soon, the one-eyed deputy found the person he was looking for.
Archmaester Xinhuo's expression was ugly. This group of rubbish, no one had thought of such important information until now.
It was really an unjust defeat.
It can be seen from this that Gong Lei was too keen on making achievements, but his management of the team was obviously somewhat negligent.
Xinhuo University Scholar suppressed his anger and asked.
"Let's talk about it. Have you verified the talisman of the messenger that day?"
The guards on duty looked at each other in confusion.
They did take a look at the command talisman, and it was correct in the format. As for the authenticity, they really didn't verify it. Under normal circumstances, who would be so boring and hold a fake command talisman to do things? Isn't that too long?
?
I have never encountered such a ridiculous thing.
They were just performing their official duties at that time. They glanced at each other casually and went to inform the Grand Master Ging Lei. At that time, nothing happened. The messenger and the Grand Bachelor Ging Lei were talking and laughing, and they had a very happy conversation. It was obvious that
Bachelor Gong Lei was in a very happy mood.
What, now we have to settle accounts with the Queen of Autumn? But under the authority of Archmaester Xinhuo, they did not have the courage to lie, so they had to tell the truth.
Bachelor Xinhuo had a dark hair and was so angry that he almost cursed his mother.
Fortunately, he was a bachelor with purple and gold ribbons, and when he got angry at a few minions, he seemed somewhat ungraceful, but he finally managed to contain his anger.
He said in a gloomy tone: "So, you just took a look at it and didn't verify it, right?"
"Yes, no one has ever taken a fake command talisman. This matter..."
Grand Bachelor Xinhuo slapped the table hard: "That's enough. You were responsible for your duties, but you were perfunctory, which caused Grand Bachelor Gonglei's accident. At this moment, you still want to quibble?"
Several people were trembling and their faces turned pale. How could they dare to say anything?
Speaking of this, they were indeed guilty of neglecting their responsibilities. Facing the furious Archmaester Xinhuo, they were frightened out of their wits.
The authenticity of the command symbol has not been verified, so there are two possibilities for this matter.
First, the messenger was really sent by a bachelor of hydraulic engineering. If we follow this possibility, it would be a bit scary. After all, the Ministry of Water Engineering flatly denied sending a messenger or having spiritual veins. In other words
, the Ministry of Water Resources has long since cleared everything up.
If this messenger was actually sent by a bachelor of hydraulic engineering, it would mean that there must be a huge problem for this bachelor of hydraulic engineering, who has risen rapidly in recent years and is admired by several bachelors with purple and gold ribbons.
Of course, there is another possibility. The courier was not sent by the Ministry of Water Engineering, and the talisman was also fake. All of this was caused by someone else pretending to be a fake, taking advantage of the great academician Gang Lei's eagerness to achieve great results, and designed this big drama.
As for the people behind it, they are naturally humans on the surface.
Neither of these possibilities can be ruled out.
The key lies in this messenger. No matter who sent him, if this messenger can be found out, many mysteries can be easily solved.
Therefore, no matter how dissatisfied the Archmaester Xinhuo was with his one-eyed deputy and the bodyguards of the Grand Archmajor, he still suppressed his murderous intention.
Only these people have seen the messenger, so even if these people die, they must be left to atone for their sins.
"That messenger, if you see him again, can you recognize him?"
The one-eyed deputy had actually sensed the serious dissatisfaction of Archmaester Xinhuo with them, and even the hidden murderous intention, he could faintly feel it.
If you don't act more proactively at this time, your life may be in danger.
He immediately said hurriedly: "Sir, as long as he dares to show up again, my subordinates will definitely recognize him. Even if he turns to ashes, he will never admit his mistake. This subordinate's method of recognizing people is quite good."
"We recognize it too." Others reacted and expressed their opinions positively.
How could Archbishop Xinhuo not understand their thoughts? He snorted coldly: "You'd better recognize them."
The one-eyed deputy hurriedly said: "My lord, with all due respect, although the plumber's bachelor denies it, I still believe that the messenger was sent by him. That messenger holds the plumber's bachelor's talisman, how easy is it to fake it?
Under normal circumstances, this command talisman will not be easily revealed to others. If it is not a messenger from the hydraulic engineering bachelor sect, there is no reference for outsiders to imitate the talisman. How can it be so similar?"
Others immediately echoed: "Yes, there must be nothing wrong with the talisman. If it is an obvious counterfeit, we can see the problem at a glance. The weight, workmanship, and exquisiteness of the details of that talisman are completely different."
It doesn’t look like a fake.”
Apart from the lack of in-depth verification, the appearance, feel and quality alone do not look like the token is fake.
"Sir, my subordinates believe that the most critical breakthrough to investigate this matter is the Water Works Department."
"That's right, Bachelor Gong Lei must be fine. He did go to the Water Engineering Department that day."
"The Ministry of Water Engineering's categorical denial of this proves that they have something up their sleeves. To be honest, we have always felt that we cannot see clearly the Bachelor of Water Engineering."
"Yes, Your Excellency, Grand Bachelor, it's not that we say bad things about others behind their backs. The plumber has always been a maverick and never interacts with his colleagues. Even his superior, Grand Bachelor, never visits him except for official duties.
That day, a messenger was sent out of nowhere, and his attitude was so humble, which is not like the usual behavior of a bachelor of hydraulic engineering."
These deputies are all old foxes, and they know that the current situation is very bad for them. Without the protection of Grand Master Ging Lei, they have now lost their backers and become suspects.
Even if they were able to prove their innocence in the end, due to their dereliction of duty, Grand Bachelor Ginglei disappeared mysteriously and may have died. It is almost impossible for them to escape unscathed.
They must atone for their sins and perform positively. And correcting and exposing the bachelor of hydraulic engineering is naturally their best choice.
The Bachelor of Hydraulic Engineering himself is very suspicious. If the evidence of the crime can be finally found on the head of the Bachelor of Hydraulic Engineering, then all of them, including the Grand Bachelor of Hydraulic Engineering, will be plotted by the Bachelor of Hydraulic Engineering, and the Bachelor of Hydraulic Engineering is behind it all.
Conspiracy, they naturally achieved the effect of making meritorious deeds.
Bachelor Xinhuo was thoughtful, but made no promise to them.
He glanced at a few people lightly and said: "Waterworks Department, we will naturally investigate. You'd better promise that when you need to identify the courier, you won't be distracted all the time. This is your only chance."
"Yes, yes, my subordinates will never let their guard down."
The one-eyed deputy took a positive stance and said, "Sir, Grandmaster Gonglei has been very kind to me. Now that he has been plotted against, my subordinates are heartbroken and want to avenge him personally. Please allow me to allow my subordinates to participate in the investigation of Bachelor of Hydraulics."
If there is something wrong with this person, my subordinates will definitely find this guy’s fox tail!”
Bachelor Xinhuo said calmly: "That's not necessary."
The situation is unclear now, and the one-eyed deputy and others have not been completely cleared of their own suspicions. How can the Archmaester Xinhuo allow them to participate in this matter?
Not only were they not allowed to participate, all of them had to be grounded!
"Feng Yin..." Archmaester Xinhuo began to order troops and generals.
In the void behind him, a bachelor walked out, who was one of his confidants. He seemed to have appeared out of thin air.
Before he appeared, there was no sense of his presence around him.
"You will set off immediately and go to the Water Engineering Department to lurk secretly and conduct some preliminary reconnaissance. I will announce tomorrow that you will personally go to the Water Engineering Department to investigate the messenger incident. You go there in advance and use this time difference. Do you understand my intention?"
"My subordinate understands that you want me to secretly investigate the plumber, especially his bodyguards, to see if I can pinpoint the messenger."
"Well, keep an eye on them at all times. Especially when I announce that I am going to investigate in person, keep an eye on them to see if there are any abnormal reactions." Archmaester Xinhuo warned.
"Yes, if they feel guilty after hearing the news, they will definitely ask the messenger to hide in advance and take some measures to remedy the situation. In this case, the subordinates will definitely be able to catch them."
Bachelor Xinhuo nodded: "Yes, you must be careful. This Bachelor of Water Engineering has risen very quickly and is not a fuel-efficient lamp. If there is someone behind him who is a human being on the surface, you must be careful."
"Don't worry, sir. I know all this. I will act cautiously and make sure I don't make any mistakes, and I won't rush into anything greedy for credit." Of course, Feng Yin understood what Archmaester Xinhuo was worried about and immediately expressed his stance.
"Well, you don't need to alert the snake, but if you investigate any movement, you just need to wait for me to arrive. It's good to be able to grasp the handle. If not, don't be too deliberate. It's not completely certain that there must be a bachelor of hydraulic engineering in this matter.
Regarding the matter, we still have to consider their feelings, and we can't openly break our faces and chill the hearts of the people below."
Salary Bachelor Yin Yin gave the instructions, obviously taking this matter very seriously.
"Don't worry, sir, I won't do anything deliberately. As long as the bachelor of hydraulic engineering has no evil intentions in his heart, my subordinates will never accuse him unjustly. But if he really has a problem, it will definitely be exposed, and his subordinates will definitely keep a close eye on him.
He." Feng Yin is still very confident in his reconnaissance ability.
"Okay, but don't be too optimistic. If he arranged the messenger, maybe he would have dealt with the whole matter long ago."
After all, a day or two have passed, and the aftermath work that needs to be done has been done long ago.
When the previous investigation team went there, everyone was unanimous, everyone said that the Grand Bachelor of Gonglei had never been there. Regardless of whether there were problems or not, at least the management was very good and thorough.
…
In the main camp of the Water Engineering Department, Jiang Yue and his group of Star City elites were not in a hurry to leave after completing the destruction of the teleportation formation.
They were waiting for a legitimate reason to leave.
If they abandon the camp now, everything will be too obvious. All kinds of doubts will focus on them, which will eventually lead to their identity being exposed. After three years of hard work, it is too early to give up this identity, and it would be a pity.
.
Therefore, Jiang Yue would rather take a little risk and wait for two days.
He also knew that in the first batch of investigations, he flatly denied that Grand Master Gonglei had ever been here. This statement might still arouse the suspicion of the Five Elements Academy.
After all, he had sent a messenger, and the messenger was disguised as He Jin. He was holding the bachelor's talisman issued to him by the Five Elements Academy, and it was also a genuine talisman.
Therefore, I'm afraid there will be a sequel to this matter, and Jiang Yue has been prepared for this.
"All of us, according to what we said before, Grand Master Gonglei has never been here, and we have never sent any messengers. No matter what the occasion, even when eating and sleeping, we should not discuss this matter again, let alone anything else.
Say. Now, we have only one thing to do, which is to fully integrate into our identity in the inner earth world. I am a bachelor of hydraulic engineering, and you are my personal guard camp. Whether it is an open investigation or a covert reconnaissance, we cannot
There is no flaw at all.”
This is Jiang Yue's request for every member of the Star City team.
After several years of growth, this elite team no longer pretends to be fake. They all know that the matter is of great importance and must not be taken lightly. Naturally, they will keep Jiang Yue's requirements in mind.
