Liangcheng government office.
When Lin Ji walked into the lobby, several police officers in the city were already waiting.
"Master Lin."
"We're all here, just watch from the sidelines." Lin Ji smiled and nodded as a greeting.
Asking the yamen servant to bring a chair, Lin Ji sat on the high platform, but instead of sitting in the middle, he placed the chair on the right side.
In the middle is Zhan Chengfeng's position. Even if Lord Zhan is not here, Lin Ji cannot overstep it.
Sitting on the high hall, Lin Ji coughed and looked at Zhou Ying, who had been waiting aside.
"Ascension to the Hall."
Lin Ji felt a little regretful that the government servants did not shout powerful words like those on TV in his previous life.
He was quite looking forward to it.
"Go and bring the prisoner up." Lin Ji said.
Zhou Ying responded and quickly escorted Tazawa into the lobby.
At this time, Tazawakawa still had no trace of the majesty of the head of the Tian family. The brocade robe on his body was full of filth, his face looked a bit embarrassed, and his whole person exuded a stench.
Tazawa also practiced cultivation when he was young, but he went crazy during a training session. Only by dispersing his skills could he save his life. From then on, he became an ordinary person and took care of the Tian family's external affairs full-time.
Seeing Tazawa Chuan like this, the faces of the several arresters present had different expressions.
Chu Qin was still expressionless. He was just here to give Lin Ji face, or rather he didn't dare not give him face.
Li Wushuang raised his eyebrows slightly, seeming a little surprised.
Sun Hai smiled bitterly.
Tian Jiufeng squinted his eyes slightly, but looked at Lin Ji with obvious emotions.
At the same time, Tazawa, who walked into the lobby, first looked around, then looked like Lin Ji and snorted coldly.
"Hmph! The sixth-grade chief arrester of the Jiantian Division is so powerful! You dare to arrest people without any evidence. Handling a case is a lie, but avenging a private vendetta is real! If you don't give an explanation for what happened today, my Tian family will go to the capital to file a lawsuit. I have to seek justice even if I’m an imperial concubine!”
Lin Ji was stunned, obviously not expecting that Tazawa came up and talked for such a long time.
"That's a good opening. You were thinking about it in jail for a long time last night, right?" Lin Ji asked curiously.
"Hmph!" Tazawa snorted again, but his expression was a little unnatural.
Lin Ji didn't care about this.
"Several arrests are here today. Tian Zechuan, you ordered the spirit to kill the two elders of the Zheng family. Do you admit this crime?" Lin Ji's voice suddenly rose.
"That's nonsense!" Tazawa sneered, "Don't use such an unfounded charge to make people laugh."
When Lin Ji heard this, he first looked at the arresters next to him.
No one said anything to me.
Lin Ji chuckled and said, "It's unreasonable? Mr. Tian, the plant spirit I caught in the back garden of Zheng's house, you personally admitted that it belongs to your Tian family, right?"
"It is indeed true, but Mr. Lin and his subordinates also made it clear that the spirit was lost by him." Tian Jiufeng was neither humble nor arrogant.
Lin Ji nodded.
"The spirits and monsters of plants and trees are not good at fighting, let alone breaking the restrictions on their bodies." Lin Ji looked at Tian Jiufeng and said.
"The world is so big, there are always some things that are beyond the ordinary. The plants, trees, spirits and monsters also have the cultivation level of the third realm..."
"Haha, don't say you don't know. All the cultivation of spirits and monsters is used to increase their longevity. What kind of skills can it have in fighting? How dare the grass and trees monsters dare to come out and cause trouble if they don't have hundreds of years of practice?"
In the eyes of monks, the cultivation of grass, trees and monsters is the most nourishing tonic.
If you are in the mountains and forests, the vegetation, spirits and monsters are not good at fighting, but they are extremely capable of hiding, and they do have many strange methods, so they are quite difficult to deal with.
Even Lin Ji, who was in the fourth realm, might not be able to easily deal with the monster he caught yesterday in the mountains and forests.
But in the city, most of these strange abilities cannot be used.
"As I said before, it's amazing how big the world is." Tian Jiufeng said.
"Okay, come prepared." Lin Ji laughed twice, stretched out his hand and tapped Tian Jiufeng twice.
Then he reached out to his crotch and pulled, and the monster that he had stuffed under the table from the beginning was lifted up again.
Lin Ji wiped away his spiritual energy and made the spirit appear to everyone.
Mainly appearing in the eyes of the Tian family head.
"What you told me yesterday, tell it again exactly as it is." Lin Ji said to the spirit.
The spirit nodded hurriedly.
"It was the Tian family who asked me to stay in the Zheng family's garden. They said that when the government officials came, I would take care of it."
Lin Ji looked at Tazawa with a smile.
"how?"
Tazawakawa said nothing.
Tian Jiufeng said from the side: "People who are not from my race must have different minds. Sir, do you believe that they are monsters? The little thing committed a crime. Maybe he knew that he would not be able to pass this test, so he yelled at others and pulled a few people to support him."
"The answer is quite fast. I have a draft already." Lin Ji said with a smile.
How could he not see that after Tazawa was arrested last night, the Tian family must have been discussing at home for a long time, and many things had been prepared.
Lin Ji looked at the spirit again.
"Tell me, who unlocked the restrictions on you and let you go to the Zheng Mansion?"
"He's the steward of the Tian family. He usually takes care of me and takes care of the Tian family's medicine field." The spirit said truthfully.
When Lin Ji heard this, he chuckled twice.
"Captain Tian, your housekeeper can't find anyone, right?"
"My lord, the butler in the house suddenly suffered from an old illness and has passed away."
Hearing this, Lin Ji took a deep look at Tian Jiufeng.
"It's really cruel."
Compared with Tian Jiufeng's hypocrisy and subterfuge, Lin Ji had no intention of hiding anything from the beginning.
He never pretended to be confused, and every word he said was aimed at breaking the window paper.
But until now, Tian Jiufeng still pretended not to hear Lin Ji's sarcasm.
Qi-nourishing skills are quite profound.
"You can't believe the ghost's words, and the person involved is dead. This case... is really difficult to handle." Lin Jimo stroked his chin.
"What kind of case is it that is difficult to handle? It's clearly your fault! Our Tian family will definitely report this matter later!" Seeing that Lin Ji seemed to be helpless, Tazawa suddenly felt confident.
Hearing this, Lin Ji slapped his thigh.
"Well said! Zhou Ying, go and call Zheng Yunxuan up for me!"
After a while, Zheng Yunxuan, who had been waiting in the government office for a long time, walked quickly into the lobby.
"Mr. Lin, here are some arrests." Zheng Yunxuan saluted cautiously.
"Zheng Yunxuan, let me ask you! Did the Tian family plan it together with you for the spirit to harm people in your backyard?" Lin Ji said coldly.
"Why do you say this, sir?" Zheng Yunxuan's eyes widened, looking confused.
"Master Lin, my father and mother were killed by that spirit. How could I be the one planning this?"
Hearing this, Lin Ji burst into laughter.
"Master Zheng, were your parents really killed by spirits?"
"Absolutely true."
"Then why did I hear people say... that you forced your parents to live in the backyard and were not allowed to go out, and you didn't give them food, so you starved them to death?!"
Zheng Yunxuan's expression suddenly changed.
Before he could speak again, Lin Ji sneered and said, "The two servants of your mansion are waiting behind the office. Do you want me to call them up for confrontation?"
"You can't hide this matter. Apart from those two servants, I don't believe that no one else in your house knows about it!"
After finishing his words, Lin Ji glanced at everyone in the hall.
Every time his eyes fell on one place, no matter who he saw, they would lower their heads subconsciously.
Lin Ji looked at Zheng Yunxuan.
He suddenly raised his voice.
"Zheng Yunxuan!"
"It was the Tian family who conspired with you to do something about monsters. As a result, the monsters killed your parents. You were so angry that you came to the government office to report the crime and testify..."
The conversation changed and the tone changed.
"Or did you conspire with the Tian family and have the intention of clinging to the Tian family, so you rebelliously killed your parents just to let the Tian family see your efforts so that you can ask for more benefits in the future?"
"Let me ask you, which one is it?!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Ji slammed the gavel on the document.
Zheng Yunxuan's legs became weak and he fell to his knees.
He looked at Tazawakawa beside him, and then at Tian Jiufeng standing in front.
Both of them had a strong sense of threat in their eyes.
But at this moment, how could he care about this? He would never dare admit to murdering his parents.
"Yes...it's the first one!"
