It was a bright future for everyone, but for Li Xin, new troubles had already arrived.
For the Trial Department, Duan Xinjie's crime this time was extremely serious and he needed to be severely punished.
Even if he is dead, his soul will be brought back for punishment.
But this time Li Xin shattered it. Although it completely killed Duan Xinjie's soul, it also allowed Duan Xinjie to escape punishment.
This was actually only part of the trigger. The other part was because, in the entire blueprint of Guansuo IV, many families had children serving in the Todut war zone.
There were even many successors, or at least elites, but all these elite talents were wiped out because of Duan Xinjie.
Either they were corrupted and became fallen, or they simply died at the hands of the fallen and the devil.
Now, the backlash comes.
Duan Xinjie is dead, but the Duan family is still there, and Li Xin, who helped Duan Xinjie get rid of his suffering, is still there.
The Duan family needs to be dealt with, and Li Xin also needs to be dealt with, so Li Xin is now also being targeted and is being interrogated by the trial department.
In an interrogation room, Li Xin was temporarily asked to stay here. Of course, this was not the black building of the Trial Department, and there was no suppression of psychic power.
But even so, Li Xin was already in a very bad mood.
He guessed that there might be some problems if he shattered Duan Xinjie's soul, but he still did it.
Duan Xinjie was very kind to him. Since he was going to die anyway, he might as well let him go.
The time for interrogation has arrived. Li Xin is being interrogated by three parties. In the center is a judge, on the left are officials from the Ministry of Defense, and on the right are officials from the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
The judge in the middle was a middle-aged man with a serious expression. He asked, "M4 Li Xin, why did you destroy Duan Xinjie's soul?!"
Li Xin sat opposite him and said calmly, "Because he once fell into chaos and caused such a great disaster, I can't leave him here. That's why I have to completely crush his soul and make it difficult for him to have a good life!"
The Inquisitor said sternly, "Don't you know that obtaining his soul should be handed over to the Inquisitor for handling?"
Li Xin shook his head and said, "At that time, we were in the midst of a fierce war. I was so angry that I forgot about it."
"Ridiculous!" The judge slammed the table in anger.
The Defense Ministry official on the left expressed goodwill towards Li Xin. He slowly said, "I think it's understandable that Director Li, as a commander who has experienced bloody battles, would be a little angry after seeing so many of his comrades killed."
"If it were me, under the circumstances at that time, I would probably tear Duan Xinjie's soul apart to vent my anger."
Upon hearing this, the judge frowned and looked at the defense official beside him, snorting coldly.
The Ministry of Internal Affairs official on the right sneered. His son died in the Todut war zone and was one of the affected people. He didn't know what kind of terrible torture he suffered when he died.
So the father is now furious and is taking his anger out on Li Xin. He had fought hard to get the qualification to interrogate Li Xin.
An official from the Ministry of Internal Affairs sneered, "I heard that Director Li and Duan Xinjie's souls communicated for a long time. Who knows how many secrets you have learned from him?"
"Or perhaps, Li Xin, you are also accepting his corruption?"
Li Xin looked at the official from the Ministry of Internal Affairs. They were now at loggerheads, so he slowly said, "I heard your son is also serving in the Todut War Zone. I killed quite a few demons in this battle. Perhaps one of them is the murderer who murdered your son."
"Don't you think I'm avenging him?"
“Bold!”
“Damn it!!”
The Ministry of Internal Affairs official, whose scars were exposed, slammed the table and roared angrily. If the judge beside him had not held him down, this guy would have rushed out to duel with Li Xin.
Of course, even in a duel, he would not be Li Xin's opponent. Li Xin could probably deal with this little C-level psychic by just extending a finger.
A defense official nearby said, "What Director Li said is possible. After all, the troops he led killed countless Fallen and demons in this battle."
"Even among those he killed personally, there were four Order-obsessed Warlords and dozens of Order-obsessed Guards. As for the other Fallen Ones and Demons, their number was so numerous that it was impossible to count them."
"Revenge is truly achieved!"
This time, the official from the Ministry of Internal Affairs was furious. He looked at Li Xin and then at the official from the Ministry of Defense from time to time.
He snorted coldly, "I've witnessed today how collusive your Ministry of Defense is. I'll report this to my superiors!"
"You are not suitable to be the interrogator this time. I request a replacement!"
The Defense Ministry official shook his head and said, "The Ministry has been very busy lately, coordinating with the Seventh Wave Battle Group. I don't think anyone can replace me. I'm probably the only one with relatively little time left in the entire Ministry right now."
Recently, with the arrival of the Seventh Wave Battle Group, the Ministry of Defense's power level on the entire planet has reached an unprecedented high.
After all, the visitors were from the Ministry of Defense fleet, not the Ministry of Justice fleet. People from the Ministry of Defense have become much more assertive when they go out now.
The judge in the center slammed the table and said, "Alright! I'm here to interrogate you, not to listen to you two quarreling!"
The two men stopped arguing. The Defense official gave Li Xin a supportive look, while the Internal Affairs official continued to look at Li Xin with anger.
The judge looked at Li Xin and asked, "What did you communicate with Duan Xinjie at that time?"
Li Xin said, "I was extremely angry at the time, so I scolded him for a long time, leaving him speechless. Then I crushed his soul to release my anger!"
The judge clenched his fists and snorted coldly, "Director Li, you are not cooperating at all!"
"Don't you want to stay here forever?"
"We in the Judgment Department have the right to keep you in custody!"
Li Xin shook his head and said, "Your Excellency the Judge, I have cooperated fully."
Li Xin looked at the official from the Ministry of Defense and asked, "Sir, am I not cooperating?"
The official from the Ministry of Defense sat upright and said solemnly, "They are indeed very cooperative."
The judge also got angry. He stood up with a cold snort and said to Li Xin, "Li Xin, your position is temporarily terminated. You cannot leave this building without the order of the Tribunal!"
Li Xin nodded and said, "I understand."
Afterwards, the three interrogating officers left the interrogation room one after another. Li Xin also stretched and walked out.
Outside, Li Xin saw Gao Bingyan standing against the wall with her full-face mask on.
After seeing Li Xin, Gao Bingyan pursed his lips and said softly:
"That's not what I said."
