Chapter 579 Above the Posa (115) [VIP]
Xu Ke took longer to think than they thought.
Perhaps he was struggling with how they could achieve the cross-world murder, or perhaps he was trying to determine whether Wen Qi was real or fake and whether she was involved. After a long while, he finally spoke with a tangled look: "Even if they are bad guys, there is a complete judicial trial system to decide the price they should pay... We can't just leave it like this..."
Zhao Yinglai turned around and whispered, "No way, Xu Ke still insists on abiding by the law?"
On one side are his teammates, and on the other side are bad guys who have nothing to do with him and who have done bad things and should die as soon as possible. Does he actually not even think about killing the bad guys to save his teammates?
"This is more interesting." Bai Jinshu raised his eyebrows.
It would be boring if Xu Ke could easily turn against them...or rather, it would be boring for Skao.
What he likes to do is to make the timid ones raise their swords, the noble ones betray their beliefs, and the arrogant ones break their backs.
It was impossible to get Xu Ke to ask them how they managed to kill people across worlds. Xu Ke had no other choice from the beginning. Taking this option without choice was the first step for Xu Ke to walk into the Skao ring trap.
"Okay, if you say it's interesting, then it's interesting..." Zhao Yinglai twitched his lips, glanced at Xu Ke, who was confused and disagreeing, and echoed absentmindedly, "Then what are you going to do next? Xu Ke is in this state now, it would be good if he doesn't give us all a lesson on ideology on the spot."
If Xu Ke does not intend to rely on killing to save his teammates' lives, his vigilance against them will probably be at its highest level in the next hour or so.
Or maybe Skao was actually in the atmosphere? He deliberately told Xu Ke so much just to make him more alert, worrying that these bad guys would corrupt the only flower of the motherland, Wen Qi. As a result, in the last hour, he had no time to think about who they were and what they were going to do. Instead, he focused on bringing Wen Qi, the flower of the motherland who was almost led astray, back from the wrong path.
Zhao Yinglai imagined in his mind the scene where Xu Ke took Wen Qi away from here with great caution and then turned around to give her an earnest lecture, and he actually felt that this was not a bad idea.
Anyway, the purpose is to divert his attention, so how can diversion not be considered diversion...
Unfortunately, although this method is practical, it is Skao who finds Xu Ke interesting. People and things that he finds interesting will never end so easily.
Sure enough, before Zhao Yinglai's mind could switch scenes, Wen Qi, who was standing opposite Xu Ke, had a distorted expression on his face for a moment.
"Oh, Wen Qi can't pretend anymore." Bai Jinshu sighed and shook his head. It was clearly an interjection of disappointment, but he said it with a kind of certainty as if he had expected it.
Zhao Yinglai couldn't hold back his desire to complain. He raised his head and glanced at Wen Qi's profile, muttering softly, "...wasn't that the information gap you deliberately created?"
Skao deliberately created an information gap between Wen Qi and Xu Ke, resulting in the two people saying different things to each other. Xu Ke said: Even if the wandering souls that replaced other people's lives were wrong, killing them without authorization was essentially no different from killing the original owners of the bodies.
Wen Qi didn't know the specific content of Scarao's words, and mistakenly thought that Xu Ke knew the identity of the deceased who awakened a team member. What was automatically translated in his mind was: Even if these people represented by Wen Qi's parents and radiating from the big shots around them have done all kinds of bad things, they still cannot be killed. Instead, legal rules that have no meaning to these privileged classes should be used to impose completely impossible punishments.
From Wen Qi's perspective, Xu Ke really had no problem talking without any pain in his waist.
It turns out that you are not the one who has been abused, ignored and left to your own devices since childhood. Now you have finally grown up thanks to luck. Everyone can give empty and false advice. Put yourself in their shoes. If you were treated like this, you might not make the same choice if you were in the same position.
Anyone who hears such words will roll their eyes.
Wen Qi managed to hold back from rolling her eyes at Xu Ke, but her expression twisted for just a moment, which was already very pretentious.
[Isn't it that Aoshen deliberately caused a dispute between these two people? 】
[Remove the "can't" and "maybe" in the previous sentence, be more confident, he is deliberately creating contradictions. ]
[But why? What's the point of Aoshen creating a conflict between Xu Ke and Wen Qi? Isn't Xu Ke a backup plan left by Wen Qi for herself? ]
[Could it be that Aoshen thought Wen Qi was boring, so he planned to make her and Xu Ke turn against each other in the end for some fun? ]
[That... Although Ao Shen has a bit of a bad taste in it, he won't be so inexplicable. Wen Qi is not a master yet, and she is not a perfect work in Ao Shen's eyes. There is no point in destroying an unfinished body. Moreover, Xu Ke is a decent person who will not kill people. Even if he turns against Wen Qi, he can't do anything to her. ]
[That makes sense, so why would Aoshen inexplicably trick Wen Qi? ]
[I don't understand, but since he's Ao Shen, I won't find anything strange about him. Everything is under control.]
…
The current situation is indeed under control.
Wen Qi's sudden change in expression did not escape the eyes of Bai Jinshu and Zhao Yinglai, nor did it escape the eyes of Xu Ke.
However, compared to the former who knew it very well, Xu Ke did not know the reason why Wen Qi's face changed in an instant, and naturally he did not know that an extremely subtle misunderstanding had occurred between the two of them.
"If we let these people live, they will hurt more people?" Wen Qi blinked, with a hint of pretended inquiry and awareness in his tone.
"If that's the case, you should find an adult to deal with this matter as soon as possible, and we will arrest them as soon as possible." Xu Ke answered without hesitation.
"But what if we can't arrest him?" Wen Qi asked, tilting her head.
"No," Xu Ke shook his head firmly, "As long as they have done such a thing, we will try our best to find evidence."
"She shouldn't have asked that," Zhao Yinglai held up his face and said with a click of the tongue, "Isn't her image in front of Xu Ke that of a considerate and harmless minor? Asking like that is a bit aggressive...Xu Ke is also a stubborn person."
His attempt to persuade Wen Qi not to go astray was a little too harsh.
"Because she was angry." Bai Jin said slowly.
"Is she angry because Xu Ke refused to agree with her point of view? It's obvious that Xu Ke would not agree." Zhao Yinglai muttered.
The long-haired young man looked at her and shrugged, "No, she was angry because Xu Ke didn't stand on her side."
"It's just that...she herself hasn't realized it yet."
The emotional connection between people is really a very delicate thing. If it were Wen Qi who had not entered the underworld six days ago, she would not have had the intention of attacking her parents, brothers, and classmates at all. A policeman's opinion of her would not affect her thoughts in the slightest.
If Xu Ke had not returned to the human world with Wen Qi three days ago, and they had just met by chance, a policeman's support or opposition on whether she should kill someone would be completely insignificant.
Unfortunately, the one who appeared here and heard these words was Wen Qi who had returned to the world of the living. In just a few days, she had quickly changed from wanting to escape to taking the initiative to attack.
Xu Ke appeared at this critical juncture.
As one of the few acquaintances with certain resources that Wen Qi could access, in several operations, if he did not get permission from key figures to join, it would be impossible for Wen Qi to achieve his goals with only the resources he could mobilize.
For Wen Qi, her understanding of Xu Ke has become deeper and deeper with each use. The more she understands, the more energy she invests in him.
Xu Ke is not a difficult person to understand. On the contrary, he is very easy to understand and an extremely decent and good person.
So when Wen Qi transformed into another person, the mountains that had been weighing on her before were easily turned into piles of ashes, and her identity was reversed overnight, the first person to lend her a helping hand was Xu Ke.
The experiences of the past few days and Skao's teaching can make Wen Qi grow instantly, but they cannot change her objective physical age. In essence, Wen Qi is still that weak student who has no resources and can be easily crushed by adults who are thousands of times stronger than herself.
The appearance of Xu Ke solved her urgent problem and further deepened the relationship between the two. At this point, Xu Ke was no longer just an ordinary policeman to Wen Qi.
With so many factors combined, Xu Ke's "official business" at this time would naturally arouse Wen Qi's anger.
And humans are emotional animals.
Extreme emotions that surge rapidly in a short period of time are enough to cause people to make wrong judgments.
"But if every evildoer can be brought to justice," Wen Qi said hastily, with a rare hint of questioning in his tone, "Why did my parents do so many bad things, but in the end no police took them away, but instead it was an accident..."
She suddenly stopped here.
"Look," Bai Jinshu pointed his chin at something not far away, "she let the cat out of the bag."
In a state of desperation, Wen Qi blurted out how his parents died.
Among all the people who died at her hands and caused a team member to regain his memory, only the cause of death of Wen Qi's parents was convincing and obviously strongly related to her, making them suitable for use as an example.
However, in a moment of emotional shock, she forgot that the death of her parents was something only Wen Qi in the world of the living should know, and Wen Qi in the underworld should not remember anything.
She let it slip.
Bai Jinshu was not the only one who noticed this.
"Your parents died in an accident," Xu Ke whispered, completing her unfinished words, "It was an accident that happened today. You said you have been staying here the whole time, and you have never returned to the other world with me, so how did you know?"
