After signaling to others, Lin Haoming followed the servant to the outside of the room where Cui Changting was resting.
The servant went up and spoke to the maid guarding the door. The maid carefully knocked on the door and said, "Sir, Master Lin is here!"
"Let him in!"
As Cui Changting's weak voice sounded in Lin Haoming's ears, if Cui Changting wasn't pretending, then Cui Changting seemed to be really much better at this time.
When Lin Haoming walked into the room, he saw Cui Changting sitting on the bed with a pale face.
And he waved his hand towards the maid to signal him to leave, and then said to Lin Haoming: "Mr. Lin, do the work!"
Seeing him like this, Lin Haoming seemed to be really not pretending, so he did not sit on the chair, but walked directly to him and asked: "Lord City Lord, are you okay?"
"My clone was destroyed and part of my soul was destroyed, which was a big blow. In addition, in order to kill the killer, my vitality was severely damaged! Originally, I didn't want to use this method to suppress the situation when my soul was damaged, but the killer was very proficient. Refining corpses, if this person escapes and wants to take revenge on the city and cause a wave of corpses, then the damage cannot be compared to that of one person!" Cui Changting said seemingly helplessly.
"Thanks to the Lord of the City this time!" Lin Haoming didn't know how true he was, but on the surface he still wanted to thank him.
Seeing Lin Haoming right in front of him, Cui Changting took the initiative to hold Lin Haoming's hand and said: "Mr. Lin, you and I are indeed entangled in grievances. I, Cui Changting, am not a gentleman, but at least I know the right and wrong as an official. , otherwise I wouldn’t be where I am today. Now that my vitality is severely damaged, I’m afraid it won’t be possible to recover in a short time, and City Judge Fang Yun is that kind of person, so when Master Gong arrives, everything will depend on you!”
"Lord City Lord, you are humble. Although you and I have some grievances, I can still distinguish between public and private matters. This time, even Gong Tongpan will remember your contribution." Lin Haoming looked at the other party's eyes and said.
There was no fear in Cui Changting's eyes, but he said with a hint of helplessness: "I know my situation. This time when Gong Tongpan comes, I probably won't be able to take the position of city lord, but this also makes me feel a lot more relaxed, and you After so many years, I have always been at a disadvantage. It might be easier to change places. Moreover, Qiniang can follow you, which also makes me feel a lot better about the guilt I have felt for many years. To be honest, although I have always been unconvinced by you, but I really have to admire you!"
"Thank you, sir!" Lin Haoming said modestly.
Cui Changting shook his head and said: "This is not modesty, but a fact. You are indeed doing better than me. Next, I will order a temporary seclusion, and all matters in the city will be handed over to the two Tongzhi adults and Tongpan. Everything in the city will depend on you now, so make sure nothing happens again before Lord Gong comes!"
"Do you know where the killer came from?" Lin Haoming asked.
"I don't know, but what you reported last time is probably closely related to the person who attacked you. By the way, the figure who escaped before to draw attention was a very powerful corpse of that person. You and Bao Will there be any results under the principal's pursuit?" Cui Changting asked.
"The corpse was destroyed by me. The corpse was very powerful, so I couldn't hold it back. Moreover, Mr. Bao was seriously injured and has gone to recuperate now!" Lin Haoming explained again.
"Oh! It's good to destroy it, it's good to destroy it!" Cui Changting seemed to relax a little after hearing this.
"If the Lord of the City did not give any instructions, the subordinate would have gone out. If such a big thing happened, as the head of the criminal chamber, I need to investigate immediately.
"This really needs to be done. Let's do this. I'll write a warrant. As long as it's related to this case, there won't be any defiance of your investigation!" Cui Changting thought for a while and immediately suggested.
Lin Haoming didn't know why Cui Changting suddenly became so easy to talk to, whether it was because Gong Xinlan was coming or because he was attacked this time, but after all, it was beneficial to him at this time, so he could only say gratefully: "Thank you, sir!"
Cui Changting took out a pen and paper, wrote down the order, and after handing the order to Lin Haoming, he seemed to feel more at ease.
Lin Haoming came out with the warrant. After everyone saw it, they thought it was normal. After all, it was Lin Haoming's responsibility to investigate the matter. But for some reason, Lin Haoming always felt that Cui Changting's changes were too big, and he was not used to it.
Next, Lin Haoming, Song Ting and others sent most of the officials back, while they found Hei Rui who was still inspecting the scene. All the powerful people in the arrest department were here, and even Yao Dong followed Hei Rui. Checking.
"Sir, you are here!" Hai Rui ran over immediately when he saw Lin Haoming.
Lin Haoming looked at the ruined secret room and the minced meat clearly visible on the ground, and asked, "What's going on here?"
Hei Rui directly pointed at the pile of minced meat and said: "This is the quiet room where the Lord of the City practices. That is the clone of our Lord of the City. It was completely torn apart by the other party. I didn't expect that our Lord of the City actually still cultivates a clone. It's really surprising." , it’s a pity that many years of hard work have been wasted now.”
"Be careful what you say. This is the City Lord's Mansion. Be careful if others accuse you of having no authority!"
Hearing Lin Haoming's reminder, Hei Rui scratched his head in embarrassment and said, "Sir, I understand!"
"What about the killer?" Lin Haoming asked.
"Nothing was left behind. The city lord used a powerful technique and burned the opponent directly to ashes. However, some corpse poison was found here, and he was very domineering!" Hei Rui said.
"Where's the corpse poison?" Lin Haoming asked.
At this time, Yao Dong came over, took out a jade bottle and said: "I carefully collected the corpse poison inside. This corpse poison is very overbearing. Even if you smell it, people who have not reached Tao Fei will be poisoned." , if you have any chance of not having the Divine Profound Realm, you will definitely die!"
"Why is the corpse poison so overbearing?" Lin Haoming asked in surprise.
"I don't know either, maybe Mrs. Shu knows!" Yao Dong said.
Lin Haoming nodded, obviously planning to take the corpse poison back to Shu Siyue for study.
"Did you find anything else?" Lin Haoming asked.
"Not many things were found. The place was almost destroyed. However, we also found a damaged sarcophagus. Although the sarcophagus was damaged, the damage was not very serious. According to my judgment, it should be used to place the corpse, but again It's a bit weird!" Hei Rui said.
"What's weird?" Lin Haoming asked strangely.
"Sir, you will know when you come and take a look!" Hei Rui said.
As Hei Rui took a few steps, a sarcophagus that was almost one foot wide and two feet long appeared in front of him, with a corner missing and many cracks.
Before he walked to the sarcophagus, he just thought that the sarcophagus was just bigger. But when Lin Haoming walked to the sarcophagus and stepped inside, he realized that the inside of the sarcophagus was really different from the general sarcophagus used to store refined corpses.
