Chapter 142 Go Again

How does it feel to secretly like someone?

For Qi Shuo, it is sweet, painful, and he is so cautious that he is afraid that if he takes a wrong step, he will miss that person forever.

For this reason, he can endure and wait with the utmost patience until the day when everything comes to fruition.

But when she was injured, he could only ask another man about her condition and could not even visit her openly. The patience became a heart-wrenching torment.

He couldn't bear it any longer.

Cheng Shu noticed Qi Shuo's silence and thought he was thinking about the identity of the villain, so he took the initiative to say, "I've been thinking about it for a long time, and I always feel that this matter is not aimed at the General's Mansion."

Qi Shuo restrained his emotions and looked towards the Jinlin Guard Office right before his eyes: "Once we find out the identities of those two people, everything will be clear."

In the East Palace, the prince was furious.

"How did you arrange it? Why was the person who took action restrained by Miss Lin Er?"

Wang Gui was grabbed by the collar by the prince, and he was having trouble breathing. "Your Highness, calm down. Who would have thought that Miss Lin II was good at martial arts?"

It was unimaginable that a seemingly fragile little girl could subdue two strong men.

"I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it. Last time you arranged for idlers to molest the second Miss Lin and they got bitten by a donkey, and this time you arranged for people to kidnap the first Miss Lin and they got rescued by the second Miss Lin, and you didn't expect it either. What on earth can you expect?" The prince waved his hands and walked back and forth in the room.

He originally arranged for someone to kidnap Miss Lin and release her after one night. In this way, Miss Lin's reputation would be ruined and his goal would be achieved.

As for those two people, as long as they leave quietly, they will be like fish swimming into the sea, and even gods will not be able to find them.

The result was so absurd that the hijacker fell into the hands of the two kidnapped girls.

"Those two have been taken away by the Jinlin Guards. If we ask about their origins, it will definitely implicate me!" The prince's expression was distorted and terrifying. "What do you think I should do?"

Wang Gui's face turned pale as he consoled the prince, "Don't worry, Your Highness. I've already contacted Zhao Helin."

Zhao Helin is Cheng Maoming's deputy. In order to seek long-term prospects, he has secretly shown goodwill to the prince and has been secretly competing with Cheng Maoming in the Jinlin Guard.

There is only one commander-in-chief of the Jinlin Guard, who wouldn’t want to be him?

Hearing Wang Gui mention Zhao Helin, the prince's irritable mood improved a little: "What did he say?"

Wang Gui lowered his voice and said, "As long as they are in the Jinlinwei prison, there is a chance to silence them forever."

Once a person dies, his background cannot be found. Even if someone guesses in the direction of King Wei, who can say that he is the crown prince?

The Crown Prince and the King of Wei are not in a relationship of equal competition. The Crown Prince is firmly sitting on the throne of heir to the throne. Isn't he too idle to deal with his brother who poses no threat?

So the key lies in those two people.

"Keep an eye on the Jinlin Guards and report any developments immediately."

Wang Gui secretly breathed a sigh of relief and quickly replied "yes".

In the cold and eerie interrogation room, Cheng Maoming stared at the two people with disheveled hair with a gloomy expression.

"Jinlin Guard is not Shuntian Prefecture. If you are smart, you should explain your origins early and suffer less." The Jinlin Guard in charge of the interrogation said coldly.

The two people looked numb and had no reaction.

Jinlinwei glanced at Cheng Maoming.

Cheng Maoming frowned: "Do you still need me to teach you? First, serve them a small dish to whet their appetite."

"yes."

The red-hot iron moved closer and closer, and was pressed down hard towards the two men's terrified eyes. Soon, a heart-wrenching scream was heard.

Cheng Maoming didn't even blink, watching the two's reactions expressionlessly.

Another Jinlin Guard came over and said, "Grand Commander, Prince Jing and Master Cheng from the General's Mansion request an audience."

"Continue the interrogation." Cheng Maoming said and walked out.

When he saw Qi Shuo and Cheng Shu, the cold-faced devil he showed in front of the prisoners disappeared, replaced by a smiling face.

"Mr. Cheng, we meet again. I wonder what brings you here, Prince and Mr. Cheng?"

Qi Shuo was also very polite: "We would like to meet the two villains who kidnapped Miss Lin yesterday. Please, General Cheng, please help us."

Cheng Maoming looked embarrassed and bowed to the emperor. "Those two are important criminals that the emperor is concerned about. It is not convenient for them to have much contact with others. I hope that the prince will understand."

Although his words were polite, he was not afraid of Qi Shuo's identity.

If he is afraid of the son of an idle prince, then there is no need for him to be the commander of the Jinlin Guard.

Facing Cheng Maoming's rejection, Qi Shuo still smiled: "Actually, I came here to accompany Master Cheng."

Cheng Maoming looked at Cheng Shu.

He had some favorable impression of the young man, but that didn't mean he would tolerate him interfering in the interrogation.

Cheng Shu was a little embarrassed: "Actually, I thought that taller villain looked familiar—"

Cheng Maoming's expression immediately changed: "Seriously?"

Cheng Shu hurriedly explained, "But I don't have the impression of having met him. I just thought I might come up with something, so I came to take a look."

Cheng Maoming thought for a moment and made a decision: "In that case, please follow me."

There would be no harm in taking a look, and if it could provide any clues, his pressure would be much less.

True Man Mingxin has not been found yet. If he cannot figure out the matter this time, he, the commander of the Jinlin Guard, will be in danger.

Qi Shuo and Cheng Shu followed Cheng Maoming into the interrogation room, with a faint, unpleasant smell of burnt leather wafting through their noses.

The two men were pale and had fainted.

Cheng Maoming was somewhat dissatisfied and told his subordinates: "Be careful."

The subordinates quickly responded.

"Master Cheng, take a good look and see if you can remember anything."

Cheng Shu nodded and looked at the burly man carefully.

The burly man had a square face, with nothing special about his eyebrows, eyes, or nose. The more I saw him, the more I lost the familiarity I had felt at first glance.

Cheng Shu couldn't help but take a step forward, and then another step forward, and unknowingly walked close to the burly man.

The Jinlin Guard standing by put his hand on the scabbard at his waist, secretly alert.

Just when Cheng Shu was about to get close to the burly man's face, the man suddenly moved his head and opened his eyes, scaring him so much that he took a few steps back.

The sound of the blade rubbing against the scabbard was heard, and the Jinlin Guard pulled out half of the knife.

Cheng Shu shook his head awkwardly at Cheng Maoming.

"Keep an eye on the people." Cheng Maoming instructed and took Qi Shuo and Cheng Shu out.

"I really can't remember."

Cheng Maoming still had a smile on his face: "It's okay, if you think of anything later, Master Cheng, just contact me."

"Sorry for bothering you." Qi Shuo and Cheng Shu said goodbye and left.

Unexpectedly, in the afternoon, Jinlin Guards knocked on the door of the general's mansion and asked Cheng Shu to go again.

Cheng Shu went to the Jinlinwei Yamen in confusion and met Cheng Maoming with a very ugly face.

"I wonder why Master Cheng asked me to come here?" Cheng Shu guessed it was related to the trip this morning and said embarrassedly, "I still can't remember--"

"Master Cheng, you must remember this!" Cheng Maoming's face was ashen as he spoke, emphasizing each word. "Those two men are dead."
