Shock, astonishment, anger, doubt, mockery …
The wedding venue fell into a dead silence. Even the band had stopped playing. Hundreds of guests focused their gazes on Zuo Yi, revealing all sorts of emotions.
Most of them already regarded Zuo Yi as a dead man.
Where was this place?
This was the ancestral home of the Duan family in Shanghai!
Today was the wedding day of the beloved daughter of the Duan family's patriarch, Duan Minghui. How dare they try to arrest the groom in front of hundreds of influential people? This was equivalent to trampling on the Duan family's reputation.
Although it was impressive that Zuo Yi had taken down more than a dozen security guards, it would be a big mistake to think that the Duan family's nest only had such weak defenses!
Everyone believed that no matter who Zuo Yi was, he was doomed!
"Who are you?"
A middle-aged man with an extraordinary aura stepped forward. He stared at Zuo Yi with burning anger in his eyes as though he could burn the latter to ashes. "Who sent you here?!"
The middle-aged man had reason to be angry because he was the head of the Duan family and the bride's father, Duan Minghui.
Just ten minutes ago, he proudly handed over his precious daughter to an outstanding man. Although he was reluctant to part with her and felt a little sad, the patriarch of the Duan family still felt happy and satisfied.
Duan Minghui believed that this marriage, which he had personally chosen, was incomparably beautiful.
Now, however, his pride, his happiness, his contentment, and all the wonderful things he had been filled with, had all been torn to pieces.
Duan Minghui wanted nothing more than to tear Zuo Yi to pieces immediately!
Just as he was reprimanding him, more security guards quickly appeared. Some of them surrounded Zuo Yi while others stood guard in front of the guests.
Among them were a few cold-looking men in suits with weapons in their hands.
The hundreds of guests present were either rich or respectable. Many of them were prominent figures in Shanghai, so the security force was naturally exceptionally strong.
In addition to the ordinary elite bodyguards, there were also supernatural beings!
"Which department are you from?"
The next moment, a dignified man with graying temples stood beside Duan Minghui and shouted at Zuo Yi in a deep voice, "I'm Director Liang Weizhi of the General Police Headquarters. Show me your ID immediately and identify yourself!"
Liang Weizhi, the director of the Shanghai Police Headquarters, was also one of the important guests attending the Duan family's wedding today.
The director was also extremely angry. He felt that he had no face to face Duan Minghui after such a thing happened. Instead, he hoped that Zuo Yi was a fake who came to cause trouble.
This way, he could kill Zuo Yi without any scruples!
"Master Zuo?!"
Just as the situation was about to erupt, a voice suddenly rang out, attracting everyone's attention.
A young man stepped out from the crowd and asked in surprise, "Are you here to capture Shen Yuanpeng?"
He was in his early twenties, and he had a bunch of eye-catching white hair on his forehead. A large gold chain hung around his neck, and his attire did not match the wedding scene at all.
The guests were in an uproar!
Everyone knew this white-haired man, which was why they were so surprised.
Duan Minghui's face was livid. "Zuoqiu Yongjie, what kind of trick are you up to?!"
This young man was Zuoqiu Yongjie, one of the representatives sent by the Zuoqiu family in Shanghai to attend the wedding.
Duan Minghui subconsciously thought that Zuoqiu Yongjie was in cahoots with Zuo Yi and that he was playing a prank to embarrass the Duan family!
Duan Minghui would definitely not think this way if he were a disciple of another family. However, Zuoqiu Yongjie was nicknamed Zuoqiu the Crazy. He was difficult to deal with and had a strange temper. In the past, he had done many things that gave people a headache.
Although Duan Minghui did not know how his family had offended this guy, he thought that he had found the truth.
Due to Zuoqiu Yongjie's sudden appearance, the security guards who were trying to besiege Zuo Yi could not help but slow down their actions. They were afraid that they would accidentally hurt this direct descendant of the Zuoqiu family if a fight broke out.
Zuo Yi did not expect to meet Zuoqiu Yongjie here. He nodded and said, "That's right."
"Ha!"
Zuoqiu Yongjie suddenly slapped his thigh and said, "Good catch. I have long disliked this gigolo. What did this guy do to give birth to a son without eyes?"
The guests looked at each other, and many of them looked at the groom who was standing on the wedding stage.
The groom looked calm with a trace of helplessness from being wronged. He was comforting the angry bride softly.
It was as if he did not hear Zuoqiu Yongjie's words at all.
Duan Minghui's face turned from green to purple. He was on the verge of exploding!
"Serial Blood Sacrifice Case."
Zuo Yi said, "He is the only suspect."
As he spoke, Zuo Yi took out his ID and special investigation certificate and showed them to Liang Weizhi. "Chief Liang, I am Zuo Yi, the chief consultant of the Jiangnan Police Surveillance Bureau. I am here to investigate this case under the orders of the headquarters. Please cooperate."
In terms of rank, Liang Weizhi was definitely higher than Zuo Yi. Zuo Yi had no right to order him.
However, Zuo Yi had a special investigation certificate issued by the Da Xia Police Surveillance Bureau. Asking Liang Weizhi to cooperate was a legal action.
The authority of this investigation certificate was very high. Liang Weizhi could refuse to cooperate, but he could not interfere with Zuo Yi's investigation!
Liang Weizhi's expression changed. The guests were in an uproar again!
Serial Blood Sacrifice Case!
This was the most serious case that had happened in Shanghai recently. Although it involved the supernatural realm, the ordinary people were not allowed to know about it to avoid causing panic. However, all the guests here knew about it.
These words seemed to have a magical power that made everyone feel an inexplicable fear. Even the bride, Duan Yaqi, who was being comforted by Shen Yuanpeng, subconsciously broke free from his hand and took two steps back.
"Yaqi!"
Shen Yuanpeng felt as if his heart had been stabbed by a sharp knife. He looked at the bride with deep pain in his eyes.
"Yuanpeng …"
Duan Yaqi suddenly felt extremely guilty. She secretly blamed herself and went forward to hold Shen Yuanpeng's hand again.
Shen Yuanpeng was such a kind and talented person. How could he be the murderer of the serial Blood Sacrifice Case?
At this time, as a wife, she should stand firmly on her husband's side and clear his name.
However, before Duan Yaqi could reach out her hand, a beautiful middle-aged woman suddenly cut in between the two of them and separated her from Shen Yuanpeng.
Duan Yaqi was surprised. "Aunt Yun?"
The beautiful woman smiled and said, "Yaqi, don't worry. I believe that as long as Yuanpeng did not do anything wrong, he will be able to prove his innocence. No one can wrong him."
As she spoke, she hugged Duan Yaqi and gently forced the latter off the wedding stage.
She also separated herself from Shen Yuanpeng.
Shen Yuanpeng was stunned on the stage. He looked as if his heart had died!
