Chapter 789 - 789 Most Suspicious
789 Most Suspicious
Jiang Zhengjun frowned. He didn’t argue with Madam Qiu. Instead, he endured it and waved his hand to order, “Carry her away.”
Qiu Ran’s corpse naturally had to be carried away for the autopsy.
Madam Qiu threw herself at them and stopped them. “I won’t allow you to take my daughter away. I won’t allow it.”
Under the tug, the white cloth was pulled off. Su Xiaolu saw that beautiful faded face. It was the real Qiu Ran. Her eyes were still wide open, and there was still fear and disbelief on her face.
Her mouth was also wide open. The entire piece of her clothes was gone below her chest. Her chest sank, and it was empty inside.
Perhaps sensing her daughter’s broken body, Madam Qiu cried in pain and fainted.
Seeing that Madam Qiu was unconscious, Jiang Zhengjun waved his hand and asked his subordinates to take Qiu Ran’s corpse away.
Old Master Qiu stopped them again. He said in a pained tone, “Everyone, my daughter has already died. That demon’s method of killing is cruel and disorderly. He ate her organs. What were their corpses like previously? My daughter is about the same. Don’t let my daughter suffer anymore. Let her rest in peace.”
“Instead of wasting time on my daughter, it’s better to investigate who the demon’s next target is. I definitely won’t let you take my daughter away.”
Old Master Qiu was pained but determined. His daughter was already like this. Now that things had come to this, it was useless to say anything else. His heart would ache even more if he let these people move around his daughter’s corpse.
Old Master Qiu did not cooperate. Jiang Zhengjun frowned. He was furious. His already bad mood became even worse at this moment. Old Master Qiu did not cooperate with his arrangements at all. On the surface, he said that he would cooperate, but he was actually secretly plotting.
Jiang Zhengjun said angrily, “Old Master Qiu, if you had listened to my arrangements today, this tragedy might not have happened tonight.”
They protected Qiu Ran, who was disguised as a maidservant, layer by layer. They were more than ten levels vigilant inside and outside the courtyard. In the end, the real Qiu Ran only had Madam Qiu accompanying her. She didn’t even have a maidservant. They were useless and couldn’t help her. They were really angry.
Now that they were going to perform an autopsy, Old Master Qiu and Madam Qiu were still trying their best to stop them. This was undoubtedly suffocating and uncomfortable.
“Whatever you say. My daughter has already died. It’s useless to say anything now. My daughter is dead. I just want her to rest in peace as soon as possible. I don’t want anything else.”
Old Master Qiu was disheartened and was not in the mood to argue. What was the use of saying that? She was already gone.
As for whether that demon could be captured or not, it had nothing to do with him who he wanted to harm in the future.
“Let’s go.”
Jiang Zhengjun gritted his teeth and waved his hand to give the order to leave.
Su Xiaolu, Fa Yin, and Fa Le also left.
The entire city was on guard, and many troops were added to patrol and search.
Firstly, it was to search the hiding place of the demons. Secondly, it was to search who the demons’ next target was.
Wasn’t he arrogant? Then they would protect the victims according to the signs he gave.
Su Xiaolu had fought the demon head-on. After Jiang Zhengjun settled his subordinates down, he asked her, “Miss, did you see the appearance of the demon clearly?”
Su Xiaolu nodded. “He’s about seven to eight feet tall and has a sharp mouth and a fox face. He doesn’t look human. He has special abilities that allow him to become invisible.”
Hearing that demons could become invisible, Jiang Zhengjun frowned.
Seeing that he was deep in thought, Su Xiaolu couldn’t help but ask, “Lord Jiang, do you have any leads?”
Jiang Zhengjun frowned and said solemnly, “There’s someone who can turn invisible in Suzhou City recently, but she’s a girl. However, we searched the entire Suzhou City during the day, but there’s no sign of this demon. Therefore, we can’t rule out the possibility that the demon was in human form during the day.”
Jiang Zhengjun had his suspicions. He didn’t want to delay and immediately stood up to ask.
Su Xiaolu, Fa Yin, and Fa Le looked at each other and immediately followed.
Jiang Zhengjun brought them to an Escort Agency called Humen Escort Agency.
Jiang Zhengjun was the first to walk in. Soon, the manager of the Escort Agency came out to welcome him with a smile and asked him, “Lord Jiang, why are you here?”
Jiang Zhengjun looked at the busy people in the Escort Agency and said calmly, “I heard that your Escort Agency has obtained a fierce general with advanced martial arts and powerful abilities. It’s said that she can turn invisible. Let her come out and receive questioning.”
“Tsk… May I ask why? Miss Bai of our Escort Agency doesn’t have a good temper. If we rashly disturb Miss Bai, she will lose her temper.”
The manager smiled apologetically and tested again.
Miss Bai Xu did have a strange temper. The girl was capable, so it was fine if she had a temper. It was fine as long as she could work for the Escort Agency. He was the boss. As a manager, he naturally knew everyone in the Escort Agency and respected them.
As long as she could complete her missions, her temper would be fine.
“It involves the demon heart excavation case in the past few days. Is this answer enough?”
Jiang Zhengjun looked serious.
The manager also looked serious when he heard that. He nodded. “Please wait a moment.”
With that, he quickly turned around to call for her.
Su Xiaolu had interacted with people from the Escort Agency before. She knew that the strength of the Escort Agency was very important.
This person that the Humen Escort Agency valued so much meant that she was very strong in the Escort Agency, let alone someone with superpowers.
The manager of the Humen Escort Agency did not make them wait long. Fifteen minutes later, the manager came with a woman dressed in tight clothes.
Su Xiaolu and Bai Xu were slightly surprised to see each other.
However, it only took a moment for them to return to normal, as if they had never seen each other before.
“Is it her?”
Jiang Zhengjun looked at Bai Xu and frowned. It was a woman. She was thin and not tall. This had nothing to do with the burly demon, but he could smell blood from this woman.
“I’m Bai Xu. Greetings, Lord Jiang.”
Bai Xu cupped his hands and reported his name.
Jiang Zhengjun sized up Bai Xu and said, “You have the ability to become invisible?”
“Yes.”
Bai Xu admitted it.
“Why do you have the smell of blood on your body? Do you often drink blood?”
Jiang Zhengjun narrowed his eyes.
Bai Xu frowned. In the end, she nodded. “I often eat raw meat. Everyone in the Escort Agency knows.”
She could directly extract strength from food and did not need to do extraction like Su Xiaolu. This was her unique ability. She ate raw meat every day and the people from the Escort Agency had naturally seen it before. She did not hide it. If she wanted to establish herself in the Escort Agency, she had to make others respect and fear her.
Although she was a woman, no one in the Escort Agency treated her as a woman. The escort leader had said that no woman was like her, so in their eyes, she was a brother, not a woman.
“Miss, please come with us. That demon who dug out hearts is also bloodthirsty and can also turn invisible. Coincidentally, you also have this ability. Although we haven’t found any evidence yet, you are already a major suspect. Please cooperate. When we investigate and clear your name, we will definitely let you go and apologize.” Jiang Zhengjun looked at Bai Xu solemnly. Regardless of whether it was Bai Xu or not, she was still a suspect.
