Chapter 203: Solving the Case
Beichen Hall has interrogation skills. Even when dealing with high-level Taoist priests, they are merciless and sometimes resort to trickery. The huge sense of disparity even makes many high-level Taoist priests want to die. This is one of the reasons why Beichen Hall has a bad reputation.
When Qi Xuansu was young, he still cared about this. Later, his thoughts changed. He knew that some things could not be changed, and no matter who came up, it would be the same, so he stopped entangled.
Of course, this does not mean that Qi Xuansu was white from the beginning. Of course, he was intertwined with black and white. He was not ignorant of the world. It was just that at the beginning, his black and white cognition only stayed at the bottom. For the upper level, before he entered the upper level, he had some unrealistic fantasies that seemed to be lucky, and the appearance of Zhang Yuelu aggravated this fantasy. Later, this fantasy was naturally shattered. Because Qi Xuansu found that Zhang Yuelu was a rare outlier. Most people are what human nature should be, and some people are even worse than Qi Niang.
When Qi Xuansu came to the place where Qi Wangui was temporarily detained and saw Qi Wangui, Qi Wangui had changed his appearance.
This kind of embarrassment is not about clothing and appearance. Qi Wangui is still dressed neatly and his hair is not messy at all. This kind of embarrassment is psychological and spiritual. Not only does he lose the calmness of a high-ranking Taoist priest, but he is also exhausted, depressed, flustered and forced to be calm, as if he has aged a few years.
Obviously, Qi Wangui, a Taoist priest who has been in the greenhouse for a long time, is not used to the methods of Beichen Hall even if he is in a high position. If it were someone like Xu Kou, he can't say that he doesn't care, but at least it won't be a big deal in the short term.
"Qi Xuansu!" Qi Wangui got excited again after seeing Qi Xuansu, "You are abusing your power! I will go to Jinque to sue you!"
Qi Xuansu sat opposite Qi Wangui, expressionless, and did not even respond to Qi Wangui's accusation, but asked: "Danjin, how is the questioning?"
Li Zhuyu replied: "I will never admit it."
Qi Xuansu then asked: "Do you deny hiring a killer to kill? Or do you deny colluding with a secret society?"
Li Zhuyu said: "I will not admit it, but I have issued a wanted order in the name of the headquarters, and I think there will be a result soon."
Qi Xuansu said nothing.
Many times, some cases become unsolved cases, not because they cannot be solved, but because of insufficient manpower and material resources. After all, solving a case also has costs, and with some other factors covering up the involvement, it is easy to let it go.
But if you really want to investigate, with the strength of Beichen Hall, there are almost no cases that cannot be solved.
Now the second person in charge of Beichen Hall has spoken, and Li Zhuyu, the deputy hall master, has carried out the specific implementation, mobilizing all the Beichen Hall branches in various prefectures, and with the cooperation of the spiritual officials of Tiangang Hall, he can even let the various thousand-household and hundred-household offices of Qingluan Guard cooperate in handling the case. This is a very terrifying force. Even if it were Qi Xuansu at the time, he could not escape.
Qi Xuansu just sat here waiting, ignoring Qi Wangui, and even not looking at him straight, just occasionally chatting with Li Zhuyu about some daily gossip.
For example, Li Zhuyu asked Qi Xuansu when he planned to marry Zhang Yuelu, and Qi Xuansu replied that it would be soon, and he would wait until the end of his term with Zhang Yuelu, and then the big and small ones.
Qi Xuansu asked Li Zhuyu if she had any ideas in this regard, and Li Zhuyu said that there was no suitable candidate.
Qi Xuansu advised her a few words, it's better to hurry up, if it's too late, like him, it's easy to have no children.
Li Zhuyu didn't care. She was the adopted daughter of Qingwei Zhenren, and Qi Xuansu, the chief, had an adopted mother and an adopted daughter. The superiors had set an example. In addition, adopting sons and daughters was an old tradition of the Li family. She could also adopt one in the future.
At this time, Xu Kou walked in with a cold breath.
"Chief, the person has been caught." Xu Kou wanted to report in a low voice, but after contacting Qi Xuansu's eyes, he immediately changed to reporting loudly.
Qi Wangui trembled obviously.
Qi Xuansu ordered: "Silence."
This place was transformed by the Taoist priests of Beichen Hall. Immediately, a Taoist priest of Beichen Hall activated the formation to isolate the area where Qi Wangui was. Qi Wangui's voice and divine thoughts could not be transmitted, but it did not affect the sight, and he could still see clearly.
Qi Xuansu said again:
"Bring the person in."
This murderer was indeed very experienced. He fled from Wanxiang Taoist Palace at the first time, left Longmen Mansion, and ran all the way to Huzhou.
Under normal circumstances, he was safe for the time being, but he never expected that this case would provoke Qi Xuansu. When Qi Wangui hired him, of course he would not tell the truth, but only said that this female teacher was one of his mistresses, and kept pestering him. It would be bad if others knew about it. Now is the critical period to decide the master of the palace, so he had to deal with it and pretend it was suicide.
At first glance, it was indeed nothing, and Qi Wangui was very generous, so he took the deal.
If he had known that it was related to the second person in Beichen Hall and involved the internal struggle of the Taoist sect, then he would not take it no matter how much money he was given. Who is Beichen Hall? A famous evil star, the Qingluan Guard of the Taoist sect, and even "Qingluan Guard" is just one of the many functions of Beichen Hall. How can he survive if he provokes such a behemoth?
As a result, the Beichen Hall branch of Huzhou Daofu quickly tracked down this person's whereabouts and found him staying at the Taiping Inn. Then Xu Kou personally led his men to airdrop, surround him, arrest him, and then returned to the Wanxiang Dao Palace on a flying boat overnight.
This person was born in the "Inn", his name was Gu Dalin, and he was considered an old man. He was somewhat lucky at first. After all, the "Inn" had a good relationship with Qingluan Guard, and Qingluan Guard had a good relationship with Beichen Hall. They are all connected, maybe they can be accommodated. But when he was put on the flying boat, he knew that this matter would never go well.
Prisoners on a flying boat? It's not that there is none, but that's the kind of treatment only high-quality Taoist priests who have fallen from power have, such as Du Juanzhi.
Who is he? He is not even a Taoist priest, yet he is treated like this.
He immediately understood that there was something wrong with the female instructor. I'm afraid that the old boy Qi Wangui didn't tell the truth and got him involved. It was probably related to the real person in charge of the palace in Qi Wangui's mouth, but it was definitely not a mistress.
At this time, Gu Dalin had 10,000 regrets. He was involved in the infighting within the Taoist sect, so what could be better? Even if the "proprietor" comes forward in person, he may not be able to speak.
Rice is eaten in separate pots. Life is also lived separately.
The flying boat landed at Xingye Lake. The lake was full of spiritual officials wearing black armor, and the lake was completely dark. This was a treatment only given to felons from heaven and humans. It also gave the criminals a huge psychological shock and discouraged them from taking chances.
When Gu Dalin saw this battle, his heart was filled with despair.
Then he was taken to the place where Qi Wangui was imprisoned by Xu Kou.
After Qi Xuansu finished speaking, two spiritual officers escorted Gu Dalin in.
Gu Dalin saw Qi Wangui at first sight.
It happened that Qi Wangui was also looking towards Gu Dalin.
When the two people's eyes met, Qi Wangui's expression changed drastically, but Gu Dalin suddenly realized it and was extremely angry at the same time.
Qi Wangui wanted to say something, but Qi Xuansu had ordered the silence to be silenced, so the sound could not be transmitted even a little bit, and it was impossible for his spiritual thoughts to be heard.
This is exactly the effect Qi Xuansu wants.
When Gu Dalin sees that Qi Wangui has been arrested, he will take it for granted that the reason why he was arrested so quickly is because Qi Wangui confessed to him. Then Gu Dalin will not resist the interrogation, but will give a full account to prevent Qi Wangui put all the blame on himself.
Thinking about it in Gu Dalin, Qi Wangui is a high-quality Taoist priest after all, and he has the support of the Qi family behind him. The Taoist sect will definitely not do anything to Qi Wangui easily, and the murder case must be closed, so he, the person who takes action directly, is the most suitable person. The scapegoat, if he wants to get a chance of survival, he can only save himself. There is only one way to save yourself, and that is to let the people of Beichen Hall believe in you and tell the truth.
Even if he couldn't save himself, out of revenge, Gu Dalin would drag Qi Wangui down to avenge himself.
No matter what the situation was, Gu Dalin would not hide anything.
Qi Xuansu signaled Xu Kou to take the person away.
Li Zhuyu understood and followed him out. She will not interrogate in person, but will watch from the outside and keep track of the progress at any time.
The interrogation went very smoothly. It didn’t even require the Taoist priests from Beichen Hall to use their skills. Gu Dalin explained everything as if he were pouring beans through a bamboo tube. Because it happened not long ago, the situation was
It was very detailed, not only could the time be specified down to the minute, but Gu Dalin could also repeat it word for word what Qi Wangui said at that time. As for how to kill people, how to speed up the dissipation of living souls and erase the three corpses, Gu Dalin also explained everything, which was consistent with the investigation records at the scene.
Stolen money and all kinds of criminal equipment are all available. Gu Dalin, as a veteran of many years, even kept a secret record while the two of them were talking.
All the human and material evidence are there, and the evidence is as solid as a mountain.
In this way, the entire chain of evidence is complete.
It can be seen that as long as the manpower and material resources are sufficient, solving the case is so simple and unpretentious.
Qi Xuansu told Li Zhuyu that he was optimistic about Gu Dalin and must not let him die, and then compiled these into a file, which he would report to Zhenren Shi Da.
After listening to Qi Xuansu's report, Master Shi Da was not very surprised. In fact, from the moment Qi Xuansu decided to make a fuss, he could probably predict the result.
However, he still said: "You can deal with this person. But you'd better say hello to Qi Jiaozheng first."
This is not a threat to Qi Xuansu, but for Qi Xuansu's sake. Including Sun Hewu's previous earnest words, this is actually the case. Fundamentally, he still didn't want Qi Xuansu to make enemies.
Qi Xuansu naturally understood what Shi Dazhen meant and said he would contact Qi Jiaozheng immediately.
In fact, after Gu Dalin's explanation, Qi Wangui continued to speak harshly, taking advantage of Qi Jiaozheng's words both internally and externally. It's not that he thinks Qi Jiaozheng can definitely protect himself, but if he doesn't take Qi Jiaozheng into account, there is no other way. He can't just sit and wait for death.
Qi Xuansu's response was also very simple. He still silenced Qi Wangui, and then he had the "Mother Mirror" moved to the place where Qi Wangui was detained. He wanted to contact Qi Jiaozheng in front of Qi Wangui.
Either don't do this kind of thing, or do it absolutely if you want to.
Qi Xuansu was actually trying to establish his authority and warn some people not to mess with me.
