Soul echo

Chapter 670 In-depth investigation

It only took two days for Lilian and other players to arrange the Jianning Mansion City in an orderly manner and restore the previous order, which also disappointed the people who wanted to see their jokes.

With the guarantee of the gods, the emperor also knew that the players who would take over the Jianning Prefecture City would be the players, so he naturally appointed them as temporary officials of the Jianning Prefecture City.

——He wanted to 'recover' the major state capitals a long time ago, but he never had the chance.

Now that he has such a good opportunity, how can he be willing to let it go?
Even though they don't know the level of these players, the emperor still authorized them.

Fortunately, these players have a high political level, and being able to experience the pleasure of ruling a city in one game also satisfies them, so they are quite dedicated.

It only took the players two days to not only restore Jianning Prefecture City to normal, but also let the people in the city realize their existence.

These players are from China on Earth, and their moral standards are not comparable to officials in this era.

Although it wasn't long before they came into contact with each other, the people in the city had already recognized these players as the new rulers of Jianning Fucheng.

After mastering the power of Jianning Fucheng, they have more confidence in guarding Guanyang Gate.

This is also the reason why the god arrester will help and let them try to take charge of Jianning Fucheng.

In the past two days, Zhang Jing and Si Kou Hong traveled to and from Jianning in order to protect the players and prevent them from being plotted against by the Jianning family.

By the way, they are still investigating whether there are evil spirits in Jianning.

After all, the unblocking of the Anyang demon head, according to the information investigated by Si Kou Hong, has a deep connection with the magic way. If someone wants to break the seal set by the Guanyang Gate, then he must be the magic way, without a doubt.

Except for the believers of the Lord of Conspiracy, even the believers of the Lord of Pleasure have many flaws, which can be found with a little in-depth investigation.

Under the investigation of Zhang Jing and Si Kou Hong, they found out some people who had already fallen into the evil way. Some of them were knight-errants, some were merchants, and some were sons of aristocratic families, with different identities.

They didn't hide deep enough, and it was easy for the two god catchers to find out.

However, they did not find the crooked way of the evil spirit that was trying to break the seal of Guanyangmen.

They also don't know if the devil didn't plan to attack this side so soon, or if the evil devil hides deep enough, they can't find it all at once.

The investigation is still going on, but I am afraid that the results will not be available so soon.

While the two god arresters continued their investigation, Lilian was talking with a group of businessmen from the Western Regions.

With similar features, Lilian easily gained the favor of this group of businessmen from the Western Regions, and learned one thing from them - the prefect of Jianning seems to have bought from them a drug that is addictive but can Drugs to treat heart and lung damage.

"Are you sure it's the prefect of Jianning?" Lilian looked serious.

Hearing her question, the businessman from the Western Regions shook his head, and explained in Eastern dialect with a slight accent: "We don't know if it is the prefect of Jianning, but a person who seems to be a servant of the prefect came to us to buy things. , and more than once."

If it was said more than once, does it mean that the magistrate has long been 'addicted'?

The reason why the businessman from the Western Regions talked about this matter with Lilian was mainly because Lilian felt that something was wrong about it, so she asked casually, but she didn't have any hope at first.

A follower of the father of fruit blew himself up, and a plant could grow from the lungs of the prefects and the others—she remembered very clearly that the prefects and the others screamed at the first time they were contaminated with the poisonous fog, which meant that It means that at that time, the plant that can control the corpse has already grown up, and it hurts their nerves.

This is very unreasonable, because even the big devil's wounds don't regenerate so quickly. Could it be that the germs carried by an ordinary believer of the father of fruit are more powerful than the big devil?
Lilian and the players around her looked at each other, then thought for a moment, and asked, "So, how many times did that person, who is suspected to be a servant of the magistrate, buy medicine from you?"

"Five or six times?"

Several merchants from the Western Regions thought for a while, and communicated with their dialect for a while before giving an answer: "As long as we come here, he will buy that kind of medicine from us, but since two years ago, he Never came again."

It broke?

Lilian raised her eyebrows. She saw with her own eyes what those people looked like after using hallucinogens in Xilu.

Although the magistrate bought only one kind of medicine, according to the Western Region merchants, as long as they have used that kind of medicine, they will definitely be troubled by its addiction, and can only be relieved by taking other drugs.

Normally, even if they had that kind of medicine with them, they would not easily sell that kind of medicine to other people. The first time they sold it to that domestic servant was because the person offered too much money and they couldn't refuse.

After settling accounts for several Western Region merchants and settling their taxes, Lilian and the players around him left their place.

"Brother You...I want to investigate." Lilian said.

Hearing this, You Qingkong also nodded, "I think the same."

Knowing that the prefect of Jianning may have been exposed to addictive drugs, and after weaned off the drug two years ago, You Qingkong had some doubts about the prefect of Jianning.

Because they only had contact with him for less than 10 minutes, they didn't dare to determine what kind of person the prefect of Jianning was, but in those few minutes, the influence they had on the prefect of Jianning was not a 'tough guy'.

In their view, it is absolutely impossible for the prefect of Jianning to quit addiction.

However, You Qingkong still had a job to do, so Lilian could only investigate by herself.

Without further ado, she returned directly to the government - because the prefect's family members and former subordinates in Jianning must know him well.

On the surface, the prefect of Jianning was assassinated by the demons, and Lilian and the others had no reason to drive the family of the prefect of Jianning out of the government, and let them live in the government.

It's just that the prefect's family always believed that if Lilian and the others hadn't invited the prefect and the others out for the refugees outside the city, the prefect and the others would never have died.

Therefore, the families of the dead officials didn't have a good look at Lilian and the other 'power grabbers', they hated them, and they wouldn't obey their orders.

"Hey, isn't this the famous jade-faced Yan Luo's lover? Why did you come here? Did you come to kill me?"

Because of the prefect's death, most of the servants in their house dispersed, so Lilian easily broke into the prefect's wife's room.

Just as Lilian walked in, the prefect's wife sneered at her head and face.

Lilian didn't intend to be as knowledgeable as her, so she went straight to a chair and sat down, looked at the bloated Mrs. Zhifu, recalled Zhong Ye's posture, and said in a deep voice: "Mrs. Fish, I'm here to verify something with you. I hope you can answer truthfully!"

Madam Yu didn't have to look at Lilian, but sneered again: "Just ask, I won't say a word..."

Before she could finish her sentence, Lilian interrupted her, "Mrs. Fish, you don't want to see something happen to your son, do you?"

"What do you want to do?" Mrs. Yu clasped her hands tightly and stared at her eyes, "Do you want to murder the son of a court official who died heroically?!"

However, Lilian shook her head, "We never intended to harm your son, because the person who might harm him is not us, but your husband, the former prefect of Jianning, Yu Fu."

Madam Yu was silent for a moment, then sneered again, "Joke, how could his father hurt his son? And his father is already dead, how can he hurt?"

"Because the prefect of Jianning bought an addictive drug a few years ago, once he used it, he would become addicted. He bought it several times from a businessman who sold this drug, but two years ago, he suddenly put it away. The medicine was stopped, and no one was sent to buy this kind of medicine.”

Lilian looked straight into Mrs. Yu's eyes, and said word by word: "Do you think your husband has the courage and perseverance to quit addiction?"

After Lilian finished speaking, Madam Yu fell silent with a gloomy expression.

Seeing her like this, Lilian knew that she had done the right thing before.

The merchants from the Western Regions did not admit their mistake. The person who bought the medicine from them was indeed the magistrate's servant.

"...Master did indeed buy a medicine from a merchant in the Western Regions."

I don't know how many psychological struggles Mrs. Yu had to do in just one minute. In the end, she chose to cooperate, but she still had a gloomy face.

Mrs. Yu took a light breath and said lightly: "I also know about this, but what the master told me is that he has already cured his tuberculosis."
