Volume 1: The Bridge Man Chapter 52 Interrogation
"The Lustful Deacon above asked me to pay attention to a person named... Qiao Ji, and at the same time... to find out the news about the Jealous High Priest."
Her speech was intermittent, her body was twitching, and blood was oozing from her wounds, but she still tried to express herself clearly.
After all, your chances of survival now depend on your performance.
As a member of the Antiquity Association, she certainly knew how indifferent the Association was to human life.
And Qiao Ji, her target this time, used seawater attack in the hospital.
Now, he also has the ability to control a ninja that turns into black smoke, as well as the instantaneous change of space, which may be spatial ability.
To sum up, she had a guess.
The Qiao Ji in front of him is probably no longer Qiao Ji, but the jealous high priest whose power was usurped and then escaped from death!
It is much easier for the jealous lineage to seize superpowers than for their lust lineage. They don't need to make human skins. As long as they feel jealous, they can take away everything from the other party.
The lustful deacon above?
Jealous of the High Priest?
The little trick in the woman's address made Qiao Ji realize that he should be able to obtain some information from her.
After all, he was now wearing the Soul-devouring Blood Robe of the Blood Robe High Priest, and without an Earth-level psychic, no one would be able to see his true face.
As for whether he would misunderstand the relationship between his identity as "Qiao Ji" and the Blood-Clothed High Priest, just let her do it. There was no way she could walk out of the training ground alive anyway, so there was no need to worry about her bringing this news outside and causing trouble for Qiao Ji.
Qiao Ji slowly walked to the side a little, not much, just enough for her to see a corner.
"So, what did you find out?"
The woman's pupils dilated greatly because she saw the hem of the blood-stained clothes. The symbol on it was the symbol of the jealous lineage!
The continuously flowing blood-stained clothes looked like real sticky blood, and this thing couldn't be faked.
Her guess was correct, it was indeed a high priest!
But when she actually faced a Blood-Cloaked Priest, her soul trembled.
The oppressive aura of a superior was like a devil that would choose its prey and devour everything she had at any time. She didn't dare to look up.
As for the ghost faces on the Soul-Eating Blood Robe, under the terrifying pressure of the Original Sin Mark, they were so cute that they looked like decorations.
"I haven't heard anything, sir."
"Yeah?"
No matter whether she was hiding something or not, Qiao Ji would always lie to her.
He looked at the woman who was pinned to the ground, and a thought came to his mind:
Her special ability seems pretty good?
Perhaps I can take away her supernatural power——
As soon as this thought came up, Qiao Ji rejected it himself.
Not bad at all. If nothing unexpected happens, I will have Yu Lian’s database of superpowers to choose from in the future. Who would be interested in her superpowers?
But when the other party heard Qiao Ji's dissatisfied words, he immediately said in shock: "The day before yesterday! The day before yesterday, the deacon came to Tongcheng in person and took some police intelligence from me!"
She seemed extremely frightened, her voice was distorted with fear, as if she had just been put into the mouth of the devil.
Qiao Ji was a little confused. Is there any problem with this?
What happened the day before yesterday?
Nothing seemed to have happened the day before yesterday, but there was a big battle yesterday. Several deacons, scholars, and investigators of the Jealous lineage were killed, and then their Blood-Clothed High Priest also died at his own hands, two of them.
Wait, the internal strife within the jealousy faction, could it be related to the lust faction?
Qiao Ji suddenly thought of it.
It's possible. Shouldn't bad guys fight among themselves?
Several branches of the Original Sin series are harming each other, which sounds like it fits their setting very well.
He considered his words carefully, then slowly said, "What else did that bitch do?"
He felt that there should be no problem if he followed this line of thought, so he became impolite in addressing the High Priest of Lust.
It seems that the internal strife of the Envy clan was wiped out in one fell swoop, with no lack of help from 'good teammates'.
"I am just a black-robed scholar, and I don't know the affairs of the deacon and the high priest."
She probably doesn't know, after all, her level isn't high enough.
In other words, her value is almost exhausted?
"Give me a reason not to kill you."
Since you are pretending to be a bad guy, then pretend to be more realistic.
Qiao Ji also wanted to dig out the connections she had and follow the clues to see if there were any other clues.
He was not afraid of being implicated, since the people doing the work were the shadow soldiers anyway.
Moreover, at this time, he cannot wait for the people of the Original Sin faction to investigate him, Qiao Ji. A thief can steal for a thousand days, but you cannot guard against thieves for a thousand days.
They have to be left to fend for themselves.
The reason for not killing me?
The woman's mind raced, she knew that the Jealous Clan had been badly wounded, and this time in Tongcheng, all of its backbone members had been wiped out.
Before that, she actually helped collect a lot of information.
She could also guess that her own steward must have gone to the police station to pretend to be a concerned citizen and tipped off the police.
All of this should have been planned by his superior's superior, the High Priest of Lust. Because of the sacred stone, there was no possibility of peace between the high priests.
But looking at it from another angle, this adult in front of him must be very short of manpower now.
This is my way of survival!
"There is a file in my cell phone that records the four gray-clothed investigators under my control. They are all useful people, and their connections are spread across all walks of life in Tongcheng."
"Oh, go on." Qiao Ji did not comment.
"I have three properties with cash and gold in them. The money is clean and you can use it, sir."
"Go on!" His voice was filled with impatience.
"Your subordinates... your subordinates can bring the deacon from Yi Province here." She said gritting her teeth.
Seeing how reluctant she was, Qiao Ji didn't believe it. You said you could just bring her here? She's your superior, why should she listen to you?
"Method." Qiao Ji's words were very brief. After all, the more you talk, the more mistakes you make.
"I will do my best."
Try your best?
So it can’t be attracted?
"Bring her cell phone in. "
Bring it in?
The woman was analyzing the meaning of these words. Where exactly was this place?
The shadow soldier brought her phone in and placed it in front of her.
"The unlock code is: 12, 23, 34."
Her shoulder was pierced by a crossbow arrow and her elbow was broken by being stepped on. Now she can't move at all and can only recite the code orally.
The shadow soldier successfully unlocked the phone, and at Qiao Ji's suggestion, he showed it to her.
"This is not the mainland, don't play tricks."
Not the mainland!
Seeing that there was no signal on her cell phone, she was shocked.
In an instant, he appeared in other countries from Tongcheng in the hinterland. What kind of spatial power is this?
As expected, he is the Blood-Clothed High Priest!
"In the memo, the two items at the bottom are: one is personnel information, including the gray investigators and some other people's handles. The other is the bank card number and the corresponding password. I have a lot of cards, and I'm afraid I can't remember them all, so I wrote them all down in my phone. These are all clean money."
After listening to her confession, Qiao Ji felt it was outrageous. How could you just put this kind of information in your phone?
What about your safety awareness? Is it completely absent?
Are you so careless when recruiting people?
