Chapter 865

The one who died could not be Governor Song, as he had enough time to escape. There was no reason for him to wait for death at home.

The possibility of a dream witch silencing him was not high, as there was no need to do so. There was enough time to retreat, and there was no need to go to such extremes.

Then why did he pretend to commit suicide to escape punishment?

Xu Qi'an had two guesses. First, Governor Song was also a scapegoat. Silencing him was equivalent to cutting off all clues. At the same time, he fabricated the illusion of committing suicide to confuse Inspector Zhang.

Second, Governor Song was stalling for time.

When discussing the case, Xu Qi'an, Inspector Zhang, and the rest had reached a consensus. Once they forced the other party into a dead end, it would definitely be a bloodbath.

Hence, Inspector Zhang did not follow the rules twice, as he did not want to give the other party a chance to react.

But this time, it seemed that the other party was one step ahead.

"If he was stalling for time, then Governor Song's corpse is fake. As an experienced coroner, how could he not see through the disguise? Unless the coroner is a werewolf … "

Based on this speculation, the Inspector was in danger.

At this moment, Inspector Zhang only had the Stalwart Tiger Guards and Jiang Lüzhong by his side. Most of the night watchmen were guarding the relay station. Although Jiang Lüzhong was powerful, one must not forget that there was also a rank 4 dream witch on the other side.

Once Jiang Lüzhong was entangled by the dream witch, how could the Stalwart Tiger Guards protect the Inspector?

The valiant Silver Gong and Copper Gong were the mainstay of the guards this time.

Governor Song had operated in White Emperor City for many years. Now that Yang Chuannan was a prisoner, he was the only one in power, and there were no local powers that could stop him … Although he could not mobilize the city guards, the Five City Warden's Office listened to the governor's orders …

Thinking of this, Xu Qi'an immediately summoned all the night watchmen in the relay station and told them his conjecture.

When the night watchmen heard this, their faces became extremely solemn. Although some were still skeptical, it was better to believe it than to not believe it when it concerned the Inspector's safety.

"Leave four people to guard the relay station. The rest, follow me." One of the silver gongs shouted.

He glanced at Xu Qi'an, "Xu Ningyan, you stay at the relay station."

Everyone knew that Xu Qi'an's condition was not suitable for high-intensity combat. He would not be able to display his outstanding combat power even if he went.

More than a dozen night watchmen whipped their horses and galloped toward Song Zhangfu's mansion.

… …

"Ningyan, why did things turn out like this?"

Song Tingfeng's face was pale, his eyes were filled with unease and anxiety.

His identity as Copper Gong did not allow him to access the confidential information of the case. In the eyes of Song Tingfeng and the other night watchmen, the progress of the case was broken and leapfrogged.

After returning from the inspection, Xu Qi 'an solved the mystery. Inspector Zhang had arrested Commander Yang Chuannan.

After visiting, the case, the case was reversed, the case, the case, was reversed. after, the case. After, the case, the case, the case, to another.

Right after that, today, a group of armed escorts delivered a cripple. After the Inspector-General secretly interrogated him, it turned out that Minister Song was the mastermind behind the scenes.

Today, a group of armed escorts sent a cripple. After a secret interrogation by the Governor, it turned out that Secretary Song was the mastermind.

Song Tingfeng was now aware of the case's progress and the situation he was facing. He needed some time to digest the sudden news.

"There's a saying that the battlefield is ever-changing. It's the same when investigating a case. The enemy won't wait for you to collect evidence step by step, get ready, and then be captured. "

Xu Qi'an was still calm. After all, there was Jiang Lvzhong, a high-ranked Warrior, and a group of strong night watchmen.

"Tingfeng, go out of the city now and find Li Miaozhen. Tell her what happened in the city."

To be on the safe side, Xu Qi'an decided to ask for help from the Flying Swallow Army. Li Miaozhen's private army was extremely powerful. It gathered Jianghu masters from all over the world. Their combat power was formidable.

"Okay!"

Song Tingfeng got up and walked out. He quickly turned back and ran up the stairs. A few minutes later, he changed into ordinary casual clothes.

"Smart …" Xu Qi'an praised him secretly. At the same time, he reflected on himself. "I didn't remind him to change into casual clothes. Why did he drop so much?"

Song Tingfeng rode a filly that would not get stuck in traffic and galloped away.

However, half an hour later, he galloped back and strode into the courier station. His face was gloomy. "Ning Yan, the city gate is closed."

Xu Qi 'an looked at him silently. His heart sank to the bottom of the valley.

"I feel that something bad is going to happen."

Xu Qi'an could not sit still. He got up and paced in the hall.

"What could happen? Jiang Jinluo is a Rank-4 martial artist. In Jianghu, he's an ambitious person. Moreover, the rest of the colleagues have also gone. "Song Tingfeng comforted him.

At the same time, he was comforting himself and increasing his confidence.

Even with the national strength of Daibun, at present, there was only one King of Zhenbei who was a Rank-3 martial artist. A Rank-4 martial artist could indeed walk unhindered in Jianghu. Xu Qi'an was used to seeing Rank-4 martial artists in the capital. But that was the capital, the core of Daibun.

Of course, Jianghu was deep, and there might be one or two thousand-year-old tortoises.

"The other three city gates must have been closed. Minister Song … or the Witchcraft Religion behind him, clearly wants to close the door and beat the dog." Xu Qi'an paced back and forth.

"Have you thought about it? Of course, they know that Jiang Jinluo is a Rank-4 martial artist. If they still dare to do this, it means that they have made sufficient preparations.

"Maybe they have been planning since they entered the dream to interrogate you and Guang Xiao. We haven't locked onto Minister Song, so they can endure and bide their time.

"But once we know that Minister Song is the mastermind, they will not hesitate to overturn the chessboard."

"And then?" Song Tingfeng's voice trembled a little. "Even if they kill the Inspector, aren't they afraid that the imperial court will send troops to encircle and annihilate them?"

"The Qi Party and the Witchcraft Religion have been planning for so many years. Isn't this their plan?" Xu Qi'an looked at him. "If it is not for rebellion, why do they do so many things?"

Song Tingfeng was a little flustered. But he was a veteran night watchman and had seen the wind and waves, so he was not at a loss.

"We must find a way to spread the news and mobilize the army of the city guards," he said.

"The Imperial Inspector had originally planned to send Jiang Jinluo to kill Xu Huchen and the other generals tonight. They were lucky to have escaped this disaster."

After responding, Xu Qi'an fell into deep thought.

Old Song was right about one thing, they must spread the news.

After all, Yunzhou was not surnamed Song. Otherwise, the Qi Party and the Witchcraft Religion would not need to be so sneaky. Not to mention the counties, in this White Emperor City, at least the city guards led by Yang Chuannan could wrestle with Minister Song.

Minister Song framed Yang Chuannan, and it was possible that he did not have the idea of eradicating dissidents. "Misfortune may be a blessing in disguise …" Xu Qi'an could not help but think of this possibility.

But Yang Chuannan was currently a prisoner, and he had not been completely cleared of suspicion. Moreover, even if Xu Qi'an wanted to use him, Old Yang, who was seriously injured, could not leave the city.

"How about killing our way out of the city?"

Zhu Guangxiao, who had been silent for a long time, said in a muffled voice.

This was a dangerous path, but he could only think of this way.

"Now there are only four gongs in the station, and we have to face hundreds of city guards, or even more … It is very difficult." Song Tingfeng shook his head and rejected this proposal.

The city guards were not a motley crew. They were well-equipped and had bows and guns. There must be a few good men among them. With just the four of them, even if they could kill their way out of the city, it would take a lot of effort.

By the time they arrived at the barracks, notified the Flying Swallow Army, and then killed their way back … Perhaps the turmoil in the city of White Emperor would already be over.

There was another way!

Xu Qi'an touched the small jade mirror in his arms and sighed in his heart, "I really do not want to die in society."

"I have a way to notify the Flying Swallow Army." After saying this, Xu Qi'an quickly waved his hand, "You don't need to ask too much. Tingfeng, Guangxiao, you two stay at the station to watch Yang Chuannan and Liang Youping. If they do anything unusual, kill them immediately!"

"What do you mean?" Song Tingfeng was stunned.

"I have to rush to the inspector's place … I don't know why, but I always have a bad feeling," Xu Qi'an whispered.

After saying this, he walked out of the station, took his horse, and rushed to the residence of Minister Song.

The streets were full of people, and the people were going about their daily activities, completely unaware that a drastic change was about to begin.

However, this had nothing to do with them. Regardless of whether the Cloud State had a new master or not, they still lived as usual.

Xu Qi'an pulled the reins with one hand and took out the jade fragment with the other. He did not directly send the message to Number Two, but first @ the Jinlian Taoist priest.

[Three: Jinlian Taoist priest, have you recovered from your injury?]

He estimated that the Jinlian Taoist priest's injury should have recovered by now. The last time he went to Luo Yuheng to ask for medicine, almost a month had passed. If his injury still did not recover, then it would be difficult for him.

[Nine: Thank you for your concern, I have recovered for a long time.]

"Phew …"

Xu Qi'an breathed a sigh of relief, it was a blessing in disguise.

[Three: Please block the others for me, I have something to discuss with Number Two.]

What did Number Three want from Number Two, so mysterious?

The members of the "Heaven & Earth Society" who were scattered all over the country stared at the message on the mirror, their chests filled with curiosity.

However, after waiting for a long time, they realized that the Earth Tome fragment no longer sent any messages. They realized that the Earth Tome fragment in their hands had been temporarily blocked and could no longer receive any messages.

This secret technique was only in the hands of the Taoist priests of the Earth Sect. Back then, Taoist Priest Purple Lotus used the same technique to block all of them.

"This secret technique is really infuriating …"

The little girl from Nanjiang angrily threw the small jade mirror on the ground. With a "boom", the ground shook violently, and the small jade mirror was embedded into the ground.

[Nine: Number Three, you can speak now. Apart from Number Two and I, no one can see your message.]

Have they already disconnected from the internet … Taoist priest, I actually don't want you to see my message. Although you have been watching me coldly from the sidelines, when it comes to social death, it is better to have one less person on the scene … Xu Qi'an complained as he slowed down his horse. Using his finger as a pen, he sent the message:

[Number Two, can you see it?]

Li Miaozhen, who was waiting, instantly replied to his message: [What do you want to discuss with me?]

Based on a woman's sixth sense, she felt that what Number Three was going to say next might be related to his cousin, Xu Qi'an.

Otherwise, one was in the Yunlu Academy in the Capital City, while the other was in the White Emperor City in Yunzhou. They were separated by tens of thousands of miles. What could there be to discuss?

[Nine: Do you need me to retreat?]

[Three: Yes, Taoist priest. Thank you, Taoist priest.]

[Nine: Heh, it seems to be an extremely important matter. Don't worry, I won't spread it.]

… What the hell! Xu Qi'an's expression was blank.

Taoist priest, do you still have the habit of liking cats? If you do, you must keep it up. I will definitely expose you in the future … Xu Qi'an took a deep breath and sent the message:

[Number Two, what I am going to say next is very important. Do not hesitate or doubt me. Once I am done, take action immediately.]

Also, do not be too concerned about my social death. I still have my pride.
