Haicheng Special Event Management Department, this is the first place Lan Ziji heard of and visited.
He had no idea about the situation here, so he just followed Xiao Liu into the yard, upstairs, and then met the department leader, Director Zheng.
And Xue Xiang beside Director Zheng——
Xue Xiang's position should actually be Director Zheng's superior, but for some reason, he doesn't feel like Director Zheng's superior at all when he is next to Director Zheng.
At this time, he was sitting on the sofa on the side of Director Zheng's office, looking back and forth at Lan Xi's brother Lan Ziji.
Because they knew that Lan Xi was a cultivator, neither Xue Xiang nor Director Zheng were surprised when they saw that Lan Ziji also had spiritual power and was obviously a cultivator.
"Mr. Lan, we asked you to come here this time to investigate a murder case that happened a few months ago." Director Zheng, who was sitting behind his desk, spoke.
Lan Ziji heard this and nodded slightly.
Afterwards, he did not immediately ask what the murder was or give an answer to it, but turned around and looked at Xiao Liu who brought him here.
"Please help me move a chair."
Lan Ziji spoke calmly, without the slightest awareness that he was being investigated.
But his reaction was not wrong. After all, he was not a suspect in any murder case.
At the office door, Xiao Liu, who had originally brought the person in and was about to leave quietly, looked at his leader for instructions after hearing what Miss Lan's brother said.
After getting a nod from Director Zheng, Xiao Liu walked to the side of the office and moved a chair over.
Lan Ziji pulled over a chair and sat opposite Director Zheng, with an office desk between them.
Then he asked, "What murder?"
When Director Zheng was asked, he immediately got straight to the point.
"Before, there was a girl named Jing Lili. She acted inappropriately and cast a spell on you. Mr. Lan, do you remember this?"
Lan Ziji nodded, then signaled Director Zheng to continue.
Director Zheng really wanted to continue speaking, but he felt that Lan Ziji's attitude in front of him really didn't give the impression of being interrogated at all!
His aura is not even inferior to mine!
As expected, he is the president of the group!
Director Zheng paused and continued, "That Jing Lili is from the Jing family, who are good at raising poisonous insects. Not long after she left your house, she disappeared!"
"The Jing family has a special way to find out if a person is dead or alive, so it can be confirmed that Jing Lili is dead."
"I specially invited you here this time because I wanted to ask you if you have any clues about Jing Lili's death?"
As Director Zheng finished speaking, Lan Ziji immediately shook his head, "No clues."
What he said was all true. After all, he didn't even know about Jing Lili's death.
On the side, Xue Xiang listened to Director Zheng's questions and couldn't help frowning.
He felt that if the question was asked this way, even if the other party had really done something, he would not confess honestly!
So he stood up and walked towards Lan Ziji.
As they walked, he asked, "You really don't know the cause of Jing Lili's death? Then after you learned that she had cast a spell on you, did you ever think of killing her?"
Xue Xiang's words clearly showed that he suspected Lan Ziji was a suspect.
Lan Ziji turned his head with an unhappy look on his face, looked at him, and replied coldly, "No."
Xue Xiang would not easily believe what Lan Ziji said. He casually took out a talisman from his pocket and said, "I'll use this Heart-Jian Talisman to test whether what you said is true or not!"
If you stick the "Jianxin Fu" on a person, his mind will be affected. No matter what others ask, the person who has been hit by the talisman will subconsciously tell the truth.
The 'Heart-Judgement Talisman' in Xue Xiang's possession is his biggest trump card!
He was also very famous among the first-class monks because he could draw such runes.
When Director Zheng saw Master Xue was going to use paper talismans on the person he was questioning, he felt that it was somewhat inappropriate.
Should I ask Mr. Lan’s consent before using it? Wouldn’t that be better?
But before Director Zheng could ask Lan Ziji what he meant, Xue Xiang had already thrown the paper talisman in the direction of Lan Ziji with his fingers!
Just as the paper talisman was about to stick to Lan Ziji's back, a layer of light blue spiritual energy suddenly appeared around him in the next second, blocking the talisman paper from outside.
The light shield only appeared for a moment, and after blocking the talisman paper, it immediately disappeared. The "Heart-Judgement Talisman" that Xue Xiang threw fell to the ground...
"What's going on?!"
The sudden change made Xue Xiang stunned.
Then he thought...
"A protective defensive weapon?"
At this moment, Xue Xiang looked at Lan Ziji with surprise!
How could a cultivator with such low cultivation level like Lan Ziji have a defensive magical weapon to protect himself?
As a first-class cultivator, he only has two similar magical instruments~!
But soon, Xue Xiang thought of Lan Ziji's sister.
Maybe the magic weapon was given by the little girl from the Lan family?
It must be like this!
But even if he has a protective magic weapon, he still needs to use the "Heart-Judgement Talisman" to verify its authenticity!
So Xue Xiang raised his hand, grabbed the paper talisman on the ground in mid-air, and then held the talisman in his hand again.
Then he pinched the talisman in his hand and pressed it against Lan Ziji's body.
Xue Xiang calculated correctly that with his strength, ordinary defensive magic weapons could not stop him.
But he didn't expect that when his hand was about to approach Lan Ziji, a layer of light shield expanded from the defensive magic weapon appeared around Lan Ziji again with a "boom!"
With a "bang!", Xue Xiang's body was pushed out by the rebound force of the defensive magic weapon and slammed into the opposite wall!
"How is this possible!"
Xue Xiang said this with shock before he even got up from the ground.
Lan Ziji, who was protected by a defensive magic weapon, did not expect that such changes would occur around him.
Lan Ziji suddenly thought of the white jade Pixiu pendant his sister gave him.
His sister said at the time that this thing would protect his safety, but Lan Ziji did not expect it to be this kind of protection.
However, Lan Ziji didn't know that the defensive magic weapon given by Lan Xi could only block things like evil spirits.
The reason why the defensive weapon against evil things was transformed into a defensive weapon against all attacks on Lan Ziji was that the hair of Nüba was added to the weapon.
Before the power in that hair is exhausted, Lan Ziji's personal safety can be absolutely guaranteed!
So now, Xue Xiang wanted to force Lan Ziji to do something, but this approach wouldn't work for him.
When Director Zheng saw that Lan Ziji had such a protective treasure, he, who was well versed in the ways of officialdom, knew that Mr. Lan in front of him, Mr. Lan, had a strong backing.
Xue Xiang couldn't even get close to the backstage person without them, let alone if they showed up? (End of this chapter)
