Yongning Town Final 7
Chu Li and You Chengze joined forces and finally destroyed the den that Shi San and Tao He had been running for a long time.
With the help of Liu Huaizhao, the relevant breeding industry chain was also brought under control. This incident caused a sensation among the people on the mainland, and they all felt indignant for the spiritual pets.
Chu Li exhausted all his strength to carry the corpse of the spirit pet out and found a place to bury it. With the help of the horn eagle, the alienated spirit pets were also freed.
Looking at the waterfall rushing down, covering up the terrifying creature in the cave, Chu Li couldn't help but feel a little emotional. If she hadn't insisted on destroying this den, she didn't know how many more spiritual pets would have suffered such a tragic fate.
The Mainland Affairs Bureau took this serious incident very seriously and specially sent the director over.
Chu Li wondered who it was when he saw a familiar shadow that day.
The man was wearing a purple official uniform, his back was straight and taut, and he looked at the bound Shi San and Tao He with cold eyes.
It was the adult who came forward to help in Lisui Town before.
As a party involved and the person who terminated this incident, she felt it was necessary for her to participate in the trial of the criminal.
Although he had a very bad impression of this person when he first met him, Chu Li still stepped forward out of curiosity and to give an explanation to everyone.
She said boldly, "Sir, when are you going to interrogate these two men?"
No formality or polite words, just straightforward.
The men around Lord You couldn't help but look sideways, secretly worried about Chu Li. Liu Huaizhao hesitated to speak, his expression unclear.
As for You Chengze, who had remained silent and followed behind Chu Li, the usually calm man now frowned, and under his long sleeves, his hands were clenched tightly, with his nails almost digging into the flesh.
After saying this, Chu Li felt the man's cold gaze sweep over her body. For a moment, she felt a familiar feeling in her heart, as if she had encountered the same gaze somewhere before.
However, before she could think clearly, Lord You had already spoken: "Now."
"I want to join you."
Chu Li was actually very self-aware. After saying this, she didn't hold much hope, but for the sake of justice, she still wanted to fight for it, even if the final answer was not what she wanted.
But the next second, she felt that she was overthinking.
The man opposite raised an eyebrow, and without any hesitation, he said, "No problem."
As soon as these words came out, the men beside him couldn't help but start whispering to each other.
Chu Li had no time to take care of these things. Seeing Lord You was about to move forward, Chu Li pulled You Chengze to follow him.
His men dragged Shi San and the other man into the prison in Yongning Town, and the heavy chains made a crisp sound when they fell off.
Tao He was a bit mentally disturbed, and he ran around frantically after hearing this voice. Shi San was still struggling, still talking about his grand plan.
Chu Li looked at the people over there and was about to go over when Lord You looked over again coldly: "Idlers."
She was stunned for a moment, looked at Liu Huaizhao and his men standing beside him, and then looked at You Chengze who was silent beside her.
Suddenly, she realized what was happening, scoffed, and boldly asked, "What does your Excellency mean by this? You Chengze and I worked together to destroy the den, and he was also qualified to be an observer. Could it be that...your Excellency is actually an accomplice?"
"What nonsense!"
A stern rebuke fell to the ground.
Before Chu Li could react, he suddenly felt a pulling force in his hand, and saw You Chengze standing in front of him, with the blades of the men around him already pointed at his neck.
After a quick glance, she suddenly felt nervous and grabbed You Chengze's arm tightly.
The man in front of her knew Chu Li's worries, and shook her hand back, but always stopped her from moving forward.
Chu Li sighed softly, "Sir, are you admitting this in disguise?"
She frowned, stood firm and did not back down at all.
Lord You curled his lips slightly and raised his hand. The men immediately put down their knives and retreated to their original positions.
"In that case, come over here together."
After hearing this, Chu Li breathed a sigh of relief. She moved forward and walked side by side with You Chengze.
After an episode, the interrogation officially began.
"Shi San, what exactly is your purpose?"
"Where do the spirit pets come from, and where do their masters go?"
…
He asked a few questions, but the person on the other side didn't hear them at all. He looked at the sunlight coming in from the window, laughing faintly, looking extremely crazy.
One sound after another, gradually getting louder.
In the small prison, the voice sounded like someone seeking revenge, making people feel particularly uncomfortable.
Chu Li frowned and subconsciously grabbed You Chengze's wrist.
Lord You, who was sitting in the center, looked as usual. He gently dragged his chin between his slender hands. After a long time, he took out a snake from his sleeve.
Chu Li was stunned and took a few steps back.
Lord You noticed the movements of the person beside him, sneered, put the snake on the ground, and said slowly: "Since you don't want to tell the truth, then I will let my pet help you speak."
The little green snake spit out its tongue and slid towards the two of them.
It swayed its body and slowly climbed up Shi San's arm, then moved upwards and stopped at Shi San's neck.
Shi San froze in place as the icy energy invaded him, his eyes frantically looking towards the nearby green snake. In an instant, his once arrogant face turned pale.
His shoulders trembled uncontrollably and cold sweat broke out all over his body.
Looking closely, there was a dark dampness beneath his black skin.
"I'll tell you, I'll tell you!"
Shi San spoke.
The next second, Chu Li saw Lord You raise his hand slightly, and the little snake immediately left and returned to his hand.
The man curled his lips slightly and asked, "Tell me about the whole story."
"I said... I said, no snakes, no snakes." Shi San gasped and replied immediately, "A few years ago, a fortune teller came to town. My wife and I are the only ones in my family, but my younger brother was addicted to gambling and spent all our money. Later, I heard that the fortune teller was taking apprentices, and I thought I could learn a skill and make some money at the same time."
So, the ignorant Shi San began his apprenticeship journey.
At first, the fortune-teller's tasks were simply to answer questions for the people, which brought him a lot of good luck. But later, the fortune-teller became terminally ill, and Shi San had evil intentions.
He began to take advantage of the spirit pet summoners who came to Yongle Town for sightseeing, and took away the spirit pets under the pretext of fortune-telling, and used coercive means to force the spirit pets to reproduce into more powerful spirit pets.
Only in this way can he save his master.
However, the master relied on this to hold on for less than half a year before passing away.
Shi San, having tasted the benefits, did not want to stop. He began to recruit customers on a large scale, taking away the pets. However, he was worried that the matter would get out of hand, so he hired a killer to kill the summoner privately.
This matter was eventually discovered by his wife. After several arguments, he lost his temper and stabbed his wife to death with a knife.
The road of no return is getting longer and longer.
He wanted to expand the money and power he had gained, first to the small town of Yongning, then to the surrounding towns, and finally to the entire continent.
After hearing this speech, Chu Li was furious. She shouted, "You are nothing but a beast, even worse than a beast! You have killed so many lives without any reason, how can you have the nerve to stand here!"
Chu Li’s angry voice lingered throughout the prison.
If she hadn't been stopped by the people around her, she really wanted to beat this evil man to death.
She had spent two lifetimes trying to protect animals, but this man, for money and profit, not only killed people but also killed spiritual pets.
This feeling of powerlessness invaded Chu Li's heart, and he felt like a bolt of lightning had struck him, feeling extremely desperate.
"This crime is unforgivable." Lord You uttered a few short words. "Come here, take him away and bring him back to the office."
"Wait, he's done so many evil things, and you haven't pronounced the punishment yet!"
Chu Li had just opened her mouth when, in the next frame, You Chengze stopped her from moving forward.
Lord You looked up at him, a malicious smile forming on his lips: "Are you trying to interfere?"
Chu Li returned a vicious glare, then suddenly felt a pull. She tilted her head, and You Chengze grasped her wrist, shaking his head helplessly.
She was furious and could only watch as the purple creature and his men left the scene.
"Xiao Chu, I know you're anxious, but the Affairs Bureau isn't solely under the control of Lord You. As for the punishment, we'll have to decide it after we get back." Liu Huaizhao looked at the girl's angry face and said, "You've worked hard during this period. Go back and have a good rest. Zhen'er has made a lot of delicious food for you. Lord You will take care of the rest."
"I……"
Before Chu Li could finish her words, Liu Huaizhao had already pushed her and You Chengze out of the prison.
Finally, he kindly added, "Don't worry. That Lord You just mentioned is the most just person on Xumi Continent. He will not let anyone who commits a crime go unpunished. Now that the matter has been resolved and all the black industry chains have been destroyed, leave the rest to us, the Lords."
After he finished speaking, he immediately followed Lord You's pace.
During the entire period, there was no room for Chu Li to speak.
Chu Li stared at the huge crowd not far away and stomped his feet on the ground as if to vent his anger.
After a while, she looked at You Chengze beside her and asked, "Even you think I shouldn't care?"
"No." You Chengze paused for a moment, "But he does have some tricks."
This actually piqued Chu Li's interest.
She moved closer, pretending to be in deep thought, and asked, "From what you said, do you know each other?"
"I don't know him."
"and you……"
As soon as the two syllables of "Chu Li" were uttered, the strength on his wrist suddenly increased a little.
She frowned, but before she could react, the man had already ignored her and was walking straight forward, holding her hand.
Something is happening, this is.
He got angry after just a few words.
Chu Li curled his lips and was forced to keep up with You Chengze's pace. However, the man had amazing physical strength since he recovered.
She followed the man for a while, panting and calming her heartbeat, but the man still looked calm and composed.
"Walk slower!" Chu Li couldn't keep up with his pace. He patted his arm lightly and complained dissatisfiedly, "You are such a stingy person. I just said a few words and you got angry."
"Hiss—You Chengze, you're scratching me and it hurts!"
