Chapter 385 Investigating the Mastermind
"You said you killed him. Do you know what the consequences will be if you say that?" Ning Xuan was almost laughing at his anger.
"This matter was caused by me. I can bear any consequences." Lan Xin looked at Ning Xuan with affectionate eyes and said from the bottom of his heart.
He knew that according to federal law, a lowly half-orc slave who killed a noble controller would be sentenced to death.
"You are my slave. If you die, it will harm my interests. Why don't you use your brain when you should? In front of me, you are quite opinionated and even want to be my master." Ning Xuan sneered.
"I dare not." After hearing this, Lan Xin's face turned pale and her body shook a few times.
"Hehe, go kneel in the corner over there and don't be an eyesore here." Ning Xuan sensed that Le Ling was coming outside, pointed at the dark corner behind the screen, snorted coldly, and gave an order.
"Yes." Lan Xin stood up obediently, walked to the corner and knelt down. The place where he was was shrouded in shadow and it was difficult to be discovered. Ning Xuan wanted to protect his face in front of outsiders.
Zhou Shi knocked on the door, and after getting permission, he came in and reported that Miss Le Ling had arrived.
As soon as Le Ling entered the room, she saw Ning Xuan sitting in her seat. She opened her eyes wide in surprise, "Ms. Ning, it's you, is it really you?"
"Ms. Ning, Huangfu Xinyue and I are good friends. I've seen you before. Miss Ning, why are you here?" Le Ling asked excitedly as soon as she saw Ning Xuan.
When Ning Xuan saw Le Ling, she had some impression of this little girl. She was indeed a friend who had played with Huangfu Xinyue, but she had no impression of her name.
"I'm here to provide medical support." Ning Xuan replied briefly.
"Wow, you're here. This legion is really lucky. Everyone knows that Sister Ning, you are the champion of the Alchemist Competition, and you are also very good at acupuncture techniques. You have extremely high insights into the problems of mental collapse and alienation." Le Ling complimented sincerely.
"I also know that when you were in charge of the protection association as a volunteer, the number of wounded you treated was dozens of times that of any other person. Also, only Sister Ning can save people with completely alienated cases. Sister Ning, you are my idol. With you around, I am even more determined to join the medical team." Le Ling said excitedly.
"Let's not talk about this anymore. I have a few questions for you today. Do you know where Yan Hezhen got the Loss of Mind Powder? Wasn't the formula of this poison destroyed long ago?" Ning Xuan asked.
"I'm not sure where she got it from, Sister Ning. Yan Hezhen secretly gave General Lan this poison more than two months ago. At that time, she had just arrived at the Blue Snake Army not long ago. After coming to the Blue Army, everyone in our team lived together, and she had no chance to come into contact with strangers. I guess she had already obtained this poison before coming to the Blue Snake Army. As for the specific time point, I'm not sure." Le Ling said.
"So, Yan Hezhen came to the Blue Snake Army with a purpose from the beginning." Ning Xuan muttered to herself thoughtfully.
"Yes, she has always been very careful. I actually noticed it a few times before, but she always made excuses to get away with it, and I didn't think of poison. Who knew she could be so vicious."
"There is someone behind her." Ning Xuan said affirmatively.
"Who is so hateful? General Lan is invincible and unstoppable, and his innate skills are so powerful. How could anyone want to harm him?" Le Ling said angrily.
"Although the mastermind behind the incident targeted Lan Xin, their real target may not be Lan Xin. It is also possible that they are targeting me." Ning Xuan said this openly to Le Ling, but in fact she was speaking to Lan Xin who was kneeling in the corner.
After hearing what Ning Xuan said, Lan Xin frowned thoughtfully.
"Targeting you, why are they targeting you? Sister Ning, you must be overthinking it. You are such a good person, you can cure diseases, you can make medicine, and you have never bothered others. Why would they target you?" Le Ling shook her head, expressing her disbelief.
"Why so many whys? Think about it carefully if you have any other news. Feel free to tell me when you think of it." After Ning Xuan asked, she wanted to send the man away.
She also had to find someone to continue investigating Yan Hezhen, focusing on Yan Hezhen's experiences before he came to the Blue Legion, to see who he had contacted. Ning Xuan believed that as long as she followed the clues, there would be no clues that could not be found.
Le Ling was sent away by Ning Xuan. With a look from Ning Xuan, Lan Xin knelt back down obediently.
"Lan Xin, you are mine, and we are one. When they deal with you, they are actually dealing with me. They want to weaken my power by controlling you. Do you still want to say that you are willing to take the responsibility for killing Yan Hezhen?" Ning Xuan pinched Lan Xin's chin and lifted his head.
Lan Xin's long and thick eyelashes fluttered, and coupled with her watery blue eyes, she looked so beautiful that it seemed unreal.
"If I don't admit the crime, Master, won't you be violating federal law? Even if you are not sentenced too heavily, your personal freedom will inevitably be restricted. I can't bear to see you suffer such an injustice." Lan Xin said a little frustrated. Of course, he didn't want to die, but if it was for his master, he would not hesitate.
"You're just imagining nonsense. Since I dared to kill her, I must have considered how to deal with the aftermath." Ning Xuan scolded.
"Yan Hezhen might be a pawn sent by someone else. There are people behind her who want to deal with us."
"This matter is not just about us. I will tell Yu Mingche and Ying Yaoshi, as well as Yun Han, Di Youlin and Lin Mo about the situation here. Let them investigate this matter. Don't worry, Yan Hezhen's death was in vain. I will be fine." Ning Xuan smiled lightly and said confidently.
Seeing that Ning Xuan had already made arrangements for this matter, Lan Xin gradually regained his composure. As soon as he left Ning Xuan's door, he immediately turned into the cold General Lan again.
After Yan Hezhen's death, the people of the Blue Snake Legion found the poison "Losing Soul Powder" in the space buttons of He Jing and nine other people. Because of the illegal possession of banned drugs, He Jing and others were sentenced to serve in a level three dangerous area for three years.
Except for these nine people, no problems were found with the others in the pacification team and they were quickly released.
Although those people did not participate, they were there to watch. Except for Le Ling and others, those who were watching were cleared out, and the merit points they earned from performing the mission in the Blue Snake Legion this time were invalidated and included in their personal files.
Ning Xuan told Yu Mingche, Ying Yaoshi and others about what she would encounter in the Blue Snake Corps, and both of them sent people to investigate Yan Hezhen.
