The Dong brothers led a patrol and quickly rushed to the southern branch. After being informed, a group of people were arranged to wait in the main hall of the Southern Branch. This was different from the last time he arrested someone. At that time, there was no politeness at all. He just surrounded Di Qing's refining room and arrested him. It was simple and rough. Although it was an arrest this time, it was actually a form of protection, and Di Qing's suspicion had basically been eliminated. This time, in order to facilitate their meeting in the future, the Dong brothers followed normal procedures.
Unfortunately, he was too polite this time and wasted a great opportunity. Soon someone shouted: "No, President Di has been assassinated."
The two Dong brothers suddenly turned pale. No longer caring about politeness, the group of people rushed out of the hall and rushed towards Di Qing's refining room. When they arrived, they found Di Qing lying in a pool of blood, dying. Vice Chairman Li Feng and the doctor had also arrived and were rescuing Di Qing. Seeing that the Dong brothers were still patrolling, he anxiously said to them: "The assassin shouldn't have gone far yet. You should search quickly. Then This guy has a kind of camouflage technique that allows him to hide and prevent others from noticing, so you must be careful."
Only then did the Dong brothers realize that they had miscalculated. If they had arrested him directly at that time, the possibility of Di Qing being assassinated might have been greatly reduced. Dong Shi immediately ordered the patrol to be divided into four groups to search the huge garden of the Southern Branch. Dong Shi also walked out of Di Qing's room as the commander-in-chief of a group. Only Li Feng, Dong Shi, and the treating doctor were left in the room.
"Has Vice President Li seen the murderer?" Dong Shi asked.
"I saw it, but I was a little late. When I heard President Di calling for help, since my room was closest to President Di, I rushed there as soon as possible. This assassin is not very powerful. Although the knife injured President Di, he managed to avoid the critical point and successfully called for help, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous." Li Feng still felt a lingering fear.
"Your doctor came so quickly!" Dong Shi asked, looking at the treating doctor on the side.
"That's natural. Accidents often happen when we weapon masters create spiritual weapons, so our medical protection is very good. Doctors are always on call for rescue. If not for this, President Di would be in trouble." Li Feng waited anxiously. The doctor's treatment was explained casually.
"So President Di is fine?" Dong Shi breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's very strange. It stands to reason that President Di's knife wound escaped the vital point, which means he lost a lot of blood. However, President Di still shows no sign of waking up. I feel that there may be poison on the knife." Rescuers were constantly on the side. The doctor suddenly spoke.
"How could this happen? Did you find out what kind of poison it was?" Li Feng was very anxious, and Dong Shi was also shocked.
"According to my speculation, it may be caused by drowsiness," the doctor replied.
"Ah! This is terrible." Li Feng and Dong Shi said in unison.
Sleepiness poison is one of the three strange poisons in the spiritual world. Once poisoned, it will cause drowsiness and is very difficult to cure. Although this kind of poison is not fatal, it is very difficult to cure. As a cultivator, once he becomes sleepy and unable to wake up, not only will his skills be unable to cultivate, but his whole person will also be disabled. The drowsiness poison is difficult to treat with other drugs. However, for cultivators, due to their strong activity, as long as they can stimulate their own metabolism, they will eventually wake up after a long period of metabolizing the toxins, but this time A bit long.
"Since you have thought of using poison to attack, why use the sleepiness poison?" Dong Shi was very surprised by the assassin's choice.
"Although other toxins are deadly, they have corresponding treatments. If treated in time, they can be cured. Although this drowsy poison is not fatal, there has never been a good way. Most of them rely on cultivators. Use your own resistance to reduce the erosion of toxins." Li Feng guessed.
Dong Shi did not speak. He discovered a possibility. This assassin should know the Southern Branch very well and knew that there were doctors on call at any time, so he thought that more powerful poisons might not be effective, and this seemingly non-lethal poison , at critical moments, it can have a very good effect.
The doctor's treatment was timely, and soon Di Qing's trauma was completely healed. The wound had already healed, leaving only a shallow mark. But the toxin of the somnolence poison was of no help. The doctor performed uterine uterine ovulation and blood transfusion on Di Qing, but it had no significant effect. Di Qing was still in a coma.
Four groups of inspections ultimately failed to find the whereabouts of the assassin. The Dong brothers conducted a large-scale investigation of all personnel of the Southern Branch at that time. It was found that all the people present had their names, and there were no signs of intrusion by outsiders. Moreover, the southern branch's security circle was not destroyed at that time, which also showed that it was not like the work of outsiders.
Dong Shi silently handed the conclusions of the investigation to Vice Chairman Li Feng. Li Feng was also surprised. If it looked like this, everyone present at the time was suspected. Dong Shi said coldly: "If Vice President Li has no objections, we will investigate everyone present one by one now. If we wait any longer, I'm afraid he will destroy the murder weapon."
Vice Chairman Li Feng quickly expressed his full support. If the murderer is a domestic thief, cooperating with the patrol and search would be the best choice. With Li Feng coming forward, the inspection and investigation entered the fast track. A group of relatively weak weapon masters and ordinary cultivators were quickly eliminated. The remaining dozens of people were all capable of hurting Di Qing, who was in the late stage of Huaying. .
The inspection soon revealed that in Vice President Zhao's refining room, there were signs of equipment being melted under the forging table. According to the residual smell, there was a hint of the drowsy poison being burned. Moreover, Vice Chairman Zhao has not come forward yet, which inevitably makes people suspicious. Vice President Li Feng quickly explained that Vice President Zhao had been in retreat and he should still be in the underground retreat place.
Li Feng saw that the Dong brothers didn't believe it at all, so he gritted his teeth and led them underground, hoping to prove that Vice President Zhao would never be the murderer who hurt President Di Qing. At this moment, Vice President Zhao Zihao magically appeared.
Li Feng was also startled by the sudden appearance of Zhao Zihao. The last time Zhao Zihao left the seclusion was to report to them the sudden increase in the intensity of the ground fire. After finishing the matter of labor, the intensity of the ground fire remained relatively high. state, closed again. As a result, this guy came out of seclusion again without any signs.
"Where is President Di? I need to see him for something." Zhao Zihao looked anxious and asked immediately after seeing Li Feng.
"What happened again?" Li Feng asked.
"The intensity of the ground fire suddenly dropped. I felt something bad. I want to ask what happened?" Zhao Zihao replied anxiously.
"Vice President Zhao, we haven't seen you for a long time. Why don't you say hello when you see us?" The Dong brothers looked at Zhao Zihao coldly and said.
"What do I have to say to you? Why don't you come here and arrest our president again?" Zhao Zihao has no good impression of the Dong brothers at all.
"We came here really to arrest President Di. Unfortunately, he was injured by an assassin and is still unconscious. We are looking for this assassin now. I wonder where Vice President Zhao was just now?" Dong Shi said angrily.
"Is this true?" Zhao Zihao looked at Li Feng, who nodded, "How could President Di be so seriously injured? Is the assassin so powerful?"
"Vice President Zhao, please be patient. Let's talk about your problem first. Have you been in retreat? Why are there traces of the murder weapon in your refining room?" Dong Shi decided not to bother anymore and was about to take it. Go to Zhao Zihao. If that doesn't work, do a soul search.
"How do I know this? My refining room doesn't have a magic circle to guard it, and I can't do anything about it if someone else sneaks in. Besides, if I were an assassin, President Di's life would have been in danger a long time ago. I am also an assassin after all. A cultivator in the Tribulation Stage." Vice President Zhao was very impatient and felt that the Dong brothers were just stirring up trouble.
"Maybe you are just spreading suspicion to clear your suspicions. Zhao Zihao, this incident is no longer our branch's business. Now not only are there people from the surveillance brigade, but also the chief of the special brigade has been sent. If you don't want to force it, Just surrender, and Captain Wu may be more lenient with you." Dong Shi ignored Zhao Zihao's tactics at all. If he wanted to prove his innocence, he would wait until he was arrested.
"What? People from the Special Forces Brigade are here. Is Captain Wu the same as Wu Kaiwen from the Supernatural Squad?" Li Feng asked from the side, his face suddenly turned ugly.
"That's right. I didn't expect Vice Chairman Li Feng to have heard of Captain Wu." Dong Shi was also a little surprised, he didn't expect Wu Kaiwen to be so famous.
"How come Wu Kaiwen was invited to take charge of this matter? Is there something supernatural about this incident?" Li Feng didn't believe it.
The Dong brothers did not answer, but just led the team to surround Zhao Zihao. Of all the cultivators present, Zhao Zihao was the highest-ranking one. If he wanted to resist arrest, he might not be able to win with just a group of infantry-stage patrols.
When Zhao Zihao saw this situation, he was furious. He didn't expect that his kind intention to go out to report the situation of the ground fire would put him in such a difficult situation. You must know that once you are arrested and imprisoned, you must prove your innocence, otherwise you will be searching for your soul. Zhao Zihao definitely couldn't accept soul searching. Just as he was about to take action, he saw Li Feng signaling to him, asking him not to be impulsive.
Zhao Zihao sighed and surrendered. The Dong brothers led the inspection and finally invited back all the cultivators from the Southern Branch who might have harmed Di Qing. In order to prevent further harm, Di Qing and the doctor who treated him were also invited to the inspection branch.
Li Feng saw that the Southern Branch suddenly lost a large number of elites, and he felt angry and anxious. Not only was the president unconscious, but the other vice president was also arrested because of criminal suspicion. He was the only one left to support the entire southern branch. Li Feng shook his head feebly. He did not expect that the incident would eventually develop to such an extent. Even the special brigade began to take action, and even the legendary Wu Papi also came to Suzaku City. This time How did the incident end? Li Feng fell into deep thought.
