Everyone looked at the situation and the atmosphere became more and more depressing.
Liu She was not afraid of Jiang Pengji's stare. He entered the room and asked, "The whole city is on alert. Has the murderer been caught?"
"Don't you know in your heart whether we can catch him or not?" Jiang Pengji asked coldly.
Liu She smiled faintly. His eyes were filled with tolerance as if he was looking at an unreasonable child.
"You should go back too. We have work to do tomorrow."
Jiang Pengji sent everyone back and ignored Liu Zhao's reluctant and worried gaze. She went straight to Wei Ci's room.
Liu She followed closely behind her.
They walked through the long corridor one after the other. Jiang Pengji opened her mouth.
"One of the things I hate the most in my life is being threatened!"
Liu She put his hands behind his back and said indifferently, "You don't look like it. I thought you would lose control and kill someone. It seems that Wei Ci is not that important to you … At least not important enough for you to lose control and lose your mind … "
Was Wei Ci not important enough in her heart?
No, it was just because Jiang Pengji was too rational.
Jiang Pengji's emotions were all covered up by her calm face.
"Are you gloating over my misfortune?" Jiang Pengji rolled her eyes at Liu She. Her eyes were filled with undisguised killing intent.
Liu She said, "I warned you before not to be fooled by your own cleverness and lose the one you love … What did you say?"
The slap in the face came too fast, like a tornado.
If they found Wei Ci a little later, he would be a corpse now.
"I said that guy was threatening me," Jiang Pengji said, "You are the only one who is fooled by his own cleverness. I am not."
Liu She said, "You are still stubborn."
They talked and entered Wei Ci's room one after another. The maid who was taking care of Wei Ci had just left with a basin of hot water that was stained with blood.
"The wound on Zixiao's body was not left by the so-called assassin …" Jiang Pengji looked at Liu She coldly. "He did it himself."
Liu She was shocked. It seemed that he did not hear Jiang Pengji clearly.
"He did it himself …"
Jiang Pengji sat on the side of Wei Ci's bed and said, "I've been watching Zixiao remotely. When he left the mansion, there was no one around him. Apart from him, there was no one else at the entrance of the alley. When I arrived, I didn't sense any other unfamiliar aura either … "
She glanced at Wei Ci and continued, "His wound is also evidence. Whether it's the position of the blade, the marks on the wound, the depth of the wound, or the strength of the knife … all of it shows that he did it to himself. You know, Zixiao doesn't have the habit of hurting himself."
Liu She immediately thought of his past experience and couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine. "Could it be that that thing … is controlling his body?"
Jiang Pengji asked, "Other than that, are there any other explanations?"
Liu She sighed. "That thing is well hidden. If she really wanted to harm the people around you, you wouldn't be able to stop her."
Jiang Pengji said, "He's threatening me. This is his warning, and he's testing who my weakness is. He hit the nail on the head."
After all, Wei Ci was an ordinary person. Jiang Pengji was not afraid of the so-called main body of the System, but he was not.
Liu She asked, "What do we do now?"
As the two of them were talking, Jiang Pengji noticed that something was moving around her feet.
The Iron Eater opened its mouth and spat out two objects. They fell to the ground with a crisp sound.
Jiang Pengji's gaze froze and she picked them up.
"Zixiao took them off when he was bathing?"
One was the Yin Yang Jade Pendant she gave him, and the other was the seal given by Zhenren Liuru.
"Where's the other seal?"
Of course, the Iron Eater didn't understand what she was talking about. It lay next to Wei Ci sadly and couldn't help but stick out its tongue to lick his fingertips.
Jiang Pengji looked around and found another seal that Wei Ci had consecrated.
She found the second seal in Changye, but Wei Ci felt that it was a burial object of his ancestors and shouldn't be carried around, so he worshipped it respectfully. She looked at the three small objects in her palm and sighed helplessly. The three objects had the effect of suppressing evil spirits and preventing evil spirits from invading. Jiang Pengji let Wei Ci wear them to protect him. Unexpectedly …
Liu She asked, "What did you find?"
Jiang Pengji asked him, "You guessed it? The position of the System's main body … right? "
Liu She raised one of his eyebrows and said in a low voice, "Wei Ci is just one of my guesses."
Jiang Pengji said, "These three objects have the effect of suppressing evil spirits and preventing them from appearing. It seems that … the stray dog was previously trapped in Zixiao's body. Fortunately, it escaped tonight. Before it escaped, it controlled Zixiao's body to injure itself to show off to me … "
Liu She said, "That seems to be the case."
Jiang Pengji sneered and said, "Of course, there may be another possibility."
"Another possibility?"
Jiang Pengji sneered and said, "It was originally hiding in someone else's body and has been secretly looking for my weakness and weakness. Taking advantage of this opportunity, it sneaked into Zixiao's body and caused the so-called injuries to confuse our vision and judgment. "
Liu She raised his eyebrows. "No matter what speculation it is, it's not a good thing for you."
If it was the first possibility, the enemy was in the dark and Jiang Pengji was out in the open. It would be too passive.
If it was the second possibility, and Wei Ci was her precious sweetheart, even if she had the God Slaying Sword, she wouldn't be able to kill Wei Ci.
Even if Jiang Pengji could do it, the System's main body was a spiritual mass without a physical body. Wei Ci's death wouldn't affect it.
Jiang Pengji raised her hands and gently tied two seals on both sides of Wei Ci's waist. She also put the Yin Yang Jade Pendant on him.
"No matter what the situation is, it's naturally not a good thing." Jiang Pengji asked him, "Which one do you think it is?"
"It's hard to say. That guy has always been cunning …" Liu She said, "Are you just going to swallow this anger?"
It was really not her style.
Jiang Pengji sneered and pulled out the God Slaying Sword. She said, "How is that possible?"
Liu She was so shocked that he took a step back. "You want to kill me?"
Jiang Pengji said, "Of course not. Although I have killed many allies, it was after the end of our cooperation."
After that, Jiang Pengji sat down beside Wei Ci and closed her eyes to immerse herself in her mind.
In the empty mind, the two spiritual masses of the subsystem floated quietly.
Sensing Jiang Pengji's arrival, the two subsystems woke up at the same time.
They were imprisoned by Jiang Pengji and didn't know what was happening in the outside world. At that moment, they looked at Jiang Pengji with the God Slaying Sword in her hand. The two subsystems were so scared that their hair stood on end. It was impossible for ordinary weapons to appear in this special area, but the God Slaying Sword was an exception.
They had a natural fear of the God Slaying Sword.
"You … What are you doing here?" System Number One stammered.
