Chapter 1226 1,225 -- Why Was Ku Xuan So Long (Two In One)
But now, a mere branch actually dared to obstruct them; this was simply inconceivable.
“How interesting. Wasn’t our operation ordered by the General Union?”Grenade-throwing senior immortal asked.
“The General Union’s process is complicated, and the relevant documents haven’t been approved yet... although fighting ancestor is under the General Union’s banner, in fact, he doesn’t have the authority to enforce the law.”Warden Liang slapped the table. “This branch is very close to us, so it can be said that it beat us to the punch. “Although I don’t know who ordered it, it’s in accordance with the rules and procedures.”
When Warden Liang said this, grenade-throwing senior immortal felt that this matter was starting to get interesting. Knowing that the General Alliance was about to take over, a branch alliance actually jumped out to stop them in advance.
“A branch alliance’s Alliance head doesn’t have the guts; someone must have ordered it.”
“Who is the alliance head of a sub-alliance in Songhai City?”
“He Erman.”
“Why does it sound like a foreigner’s name?”
“He’s an overseas Chinese to begin with, and he was only transferred to the Huaxiu Alliance branch in Songhai City this year as the alliance head of a sub-alliance.”
Warden Liang displayed the message talisman he had just received, which had the twin steel seals of the Huaxiu Alliance branch in Songhai City and the Alliance head, he Erman, on it. There was absolutely no mistaking it.
“What level is the head of the Alliance?”Loopy toad asked.
“His strength is about the same as that of the presidents of the major cultivation academies. The strong ones have half a foot in the true immortal realm, but most of them are at the itinerant immortal realm, and basically have no hope of breaking through in their lifetime.”
Loopy toad couldn’t help laughing when it heard this. So he was just an itinerant immortal, after all, the author was already writing about true immortals as if they were cabbages!
However, Warden Liang still sounded worried about this matter. “Judging from the attitude in this letter, there must be someone behind he erman; otherwise, he wouldn’t have the courage as a joint chief.”
“What do you think?”
“Right now, this joint chief he Erman is completely on the opposite side of us. Even if he is removed from his position and imprisoned, he will still do his best to organize the capture of Keorn. It seems that the secret that Keorn has is very likely to have touched some big shot’s cake. “And in Huaxiu nation, there are very few people who have this kind of power...”warden Liang frowned deeply.
The fact that the war sect wasn’t a law enforcement organization was a crucial issue. If grenade-throwing senior immortal and the Songhai City branch of the Office of strategic deception clashed at this time, the winner in the end would also be the branch.
Moreover, the overall strength of the branch wasn’t weak. There were twenty groups under a branch of the Office of strategic deception, and the weakest among them was at the nascent soul stage. The Office of strategic deception had just been established. It seemed to have a lot of people, but the number of elite soldiers was very small. The disciples under it were all at the foundation establishment stage and the Golden Core Stage. If there was really a conflict.., even if there were a few big shots overseeing the situation, it would be a self-destructive act.
A higher-ranking official could crush a person to death. If a bright sect dared to fight with the law enforcement department, they could find a reason to kill them in all aspects at any time! In this era of peace, the fights between sects would no longer be the same as before. If they did not like each other, they would ask a few groups of disciples to fight in front of the mountain gate.
Trade Wars, information wars, and public opinion wars... These were all ways to crush their opponents.
If the battle sect attacked now and the other sects added fuel to the fire, public opinion would definitely be at an overwhelming disadvantage.
A tall tree attracts the wind; there were too many sects that wanted to suppress the war sect now.
Warden Liang even suspected that this might be a trap for the war sect.
Grenade-throwing Senior Immortal’s war sect had been in the limelight in all aspects these days. Even if they were affiliated with Huaxiu Alliance’s General Alliance, how could there be room for two tigers in this mountain?
The complexity of this matter was already a little beyond Warden Liang’s imagination. “I’m sorry, Senior Immortal, there’s already an order from the sub-alliance for this matter. I Can’t disobey my superior’s orders either. Unless there’s a notice from the General Alliance, I can’t continue to detain Ke\'ao en...”
“I understand.”
Grenade-throwing senior immortal frowned. “Then how long can warden Liang detain him for at most?”
Warden Liang was silent for a moment before replying, “The order says immediate release, but if we include the process, I can keep him for at most another hour.”
“Then I’ll have to trouble you, Warden Liang.”
The two cupped their fists and saluted each other.
Grenade-throwing senior immortal then quickly left the prison with loopy toad.
As soon as the man and dog left, Warden Liang immediately gave an order to the jailer on the side. “Go, bring me that 999-question prison satisfaction questionnaire.”
“Warden, you really want to help him...”
“Help him? I’m just fulfilling the target given to me by my superior.”. This was also a mission given by the head of the department. It was said that the major prisons had to satisfy the human rights of the prisoners while they were in custody before conducting an investigation. “I’m just following orders,”Warden Liang said, he left without looking back. He already felt that this matter was very troublesome.
Now, he needed to find someone to sort out his thoughts. Whenever he felt bored, as long as he discussed with this person, his mood would immediately become comfortable.
Returning to the Warden’s office, Warden Liang picked up the Coffee Cup on the table and took a SIP before directly connecting to the office of the General Administration of 100 schools with his messaging ball. “Hello, this is old Liang from Songhai first prison. Help me connect to your director Zhuo’s inside line.”
Although he had already gotten off work at this time, he knew very well that Odd Zhuo, a workaholic who had thrown his head and spilled his blood in the workplace, was definitely still sticking to his post.
At this moment, Warden Liang was stroking the messaging ball as he looked out the window.
His instincts told him that a huge earthquake was about to happen in Huaxiu nation... and even the entire world
..
When grenade-throwing senior immortal and loopy toad left the prison, the man and the dog could clearly sense that the atmosphere was a little off, especially when grenade-throwing senior immortal had used the WARSECT messaging order specially issued by Huaxiu Alliance to contact the headquarters, that strange feeling instantly welled up in grenade-throwing senior immortal’s heart.
No one responded to him at the headquarters, and neither did they hang up or pick up the call.
This was definitely an abnormal signal.
“No one picked up?”Loopy toad could also sense that something wasn’t quite right about this matter. From the news broadcast of Keorn being caught on true central television, then to grenade-throwing senior immortal personally accompanying Warden Liang to hear the case.., then to Songhai City branch asking to release the person, the entire process took less than six hours.
Within six hours, a pair of invisible hands that blotted out the sky and covered the Sun had already set up a plan behind the scenes and manipulated everything..
Who could this person be?
“Do you have an answer?”
“Without concrete evidence, I can’t suspect anyone. And there’s more than one person with this kind of power. Right now, we need to figure out what the other party is hiding, and what secret Keorn is hiding.”
“Don’t worry about Keorn. I’ve already planted a mark on him; he won’t be able to escape,”loopy toad said.
Grenade-throwing senior immortal nodded. “Then now, we’ll split up. I’ll take the nearest immortal ship to the General Alliance to look for someone. You Go and contact brother Odd Zhuo first, and take him with you to gather some more people.”
“Aren’t you going to look for My Little Master Ling?”
“Isn’t brother Ling still doing his homework... Let’s settle this first. We don’t dare disturb brother Ling while he’s doing his homework.”
”...”
..
Odd Zhuo sat in his office and felt a little unsettled. He looked out the window at the peaceful night, and for a moment, it was as if he could see dark clouds rolling. After rubbing his eyes, the dark clouds that had disturbed the peace disappeared in front of his eyes like an illusion.
Ten minutes ago, he had received an internal call from Warden Liang’s messaging ball. Old Liang hadn’t left him much; they had only talked about the newly detained prisoner, Keron.
Old Liang was one of the few good friends he could confide in at work. Although their jobs were very different, they would usually confide in each other about any troublesome matters they encountered.
His tone was as calm as usual, and he didn’t show the slightest hint of panic. “Yo! Brother Zhuo! Did you see that Keorn Duncan News?”
“Not only did I see it, I also heard some news.”Odd Zhuo’s tone was the same as usual. He knew that most likely Warden Liang had come to find him to discuss some gossip about prisoners, but because the prisoner he had caught this time, Keron, was also related to his master to a certain extent, Odd Zhuo had especially learned some information through the office of Strategic Deception’s internal channels.
“I heard that this person is from the SBP foundation. He came to Huaxiu nation 20 years ago and has been traveling all over the country to carry out secret investigations. He even pretended to be the ancestor of the world of assassins, the ghost axe spirit mother, to earn money for his activities. He’s really a weirdo.”Odd Zhuo tried hard to recall the information he had seen, so far, so much information had been provided on the war sect’s side, and the information was almost updated in real time.
While discussing Keorn with Warden Liang, Odd Zhuo had specially browsed through the information in the war sect’s secret intelligence database and found that there was no latest update.
He immediately knew the purpose of Old Liang’s call.
It was probably because the interrogation hadn’t gone well and he wanted to find him to vent.
“You know quite a bit, brother Zhuo! But this is a bit unusual. Keorn is different from all the prisoners I’ve received before...”
“The three mahjong players in Songhai prison are all weirdos. Is there anyone more out of line than the three of them?”
“Xi Ba! Brother Zhuo! I’m not joking!”Warden Liang almost roared as he spoke, and this sudden sternness gave Odd Zhuo a fright.
But soon, he received an apology from Warden Liang. “I’ve apologized to you, Brother Zhuo. I was a little too excited...”
“It’s okay, Brother Liang. I understand. If you have any difficulties, you can tell me. Maybe I can help.”Compared to the previous times when they had discussed weirdos, odd Zhuo finally felt that this time was special.
Old Liang had always been a calm and bold person. That Roar just now wasn’t so much excitement as it was bolstering his courage. Now Odd Zhuo was starting to wonder how a foreign cultivator could make old liang lose his composure like this.
“You and I don’t work in the same unit, but based on my experience, it’s better for Brother Zhuo not to interfere in this prisoner’s case...”perhaps even he himself hadn’t noticed when Warden Liang spoke, his voice was a little shaky.
Odd Zhuo didn’t want the atmosphere to become more solemn, he could only continue to chat with him in a teasing tone. “I have a lot of work here, Brother Liang, are you afraid that I’ll interfere and take credit for it again? Don’t worry, Brother Liang, i, Odd Zhuo, promise you that I won’t do anything about this.”
On the other end of the communication ball, Warden Liang’s voice clearly fell silent.
At this point, the call was cut off.
At the same time, Odd Zhuo also fell into a long silence.
Old Liang’s call was very strange.
Usually, he almost never deliberately added some auxiliary words in his sentences, such as “Xi Ba”or other vulgar words.
Although the two of them didn’t work together in the same unit, they usually chatted a lot, and there was always a special tacit understanding between them.
Odd Zhuo started to replay the recording of the message ball and carefully read every word old liang had said to him. He felt that there might be hints old Liang had given him.
Taking out his notebook, Odd Zhuo recorded every word old Liang had just said to him.
“Yo! Brother Zhuo...”
“You know quite a bit, brother Zhuo...”
“Xi Ba! Brother Zhuo!”
“I apologize to you, Little Brother Zhuo.”
“You and I don’t work together in the same unit...”
When these words were arranged together, Odd Zhuo really found some clues at the beginning of the sentence. When these words were put together to form a homonym, what they formed was: I Have Something for you..
Old Liang left something for him?
Odd Zhuo felt a little confused, but at the same time felt that it was a little comical, because this code was really too lame.
But as long as it worked, even if it was lame.
If it wasn’t for the fact that he usually chatted with old Liang a lot and knew old Liang’s habit of using words and making sentences, he really wouldn’t have been able to tell what it meant.
According to the content of the call, Old Liang probably had something to leave for him.
He waited anxiously in the Office for a moment, and a stream of light flashed past Odd Zhuo’s face outside the window!
He recognized at a glance that this was old Liang’s exclusive flying sword! The infinite sword!
If someone was stabbed by the infinite sword, heavy chains would immediately grow out of the wound like grass and firmly lock the enemy in place!
But there seemed to be something very strange on this flying sword; it seemed to be a bundle..
Odd Zhuo reacted quickly and turned his body to grab the flying sword that was speeding over.
The instant he received the sword, the bundle on the hilt rolled down, and blood instantly gushed out of the bundle and soaked the entire ground..
Odd Zhuo looked at the scene in disbelief. He forcefully restrained his trembling body and used the infinite sword in his hand to push the bundle away.
Inside was Old Liang’s head.
At the same time, a few people in Azure uniforms barged into Odd Zhuo’s office at the same time.
The person in the lead was the team leader of the Huaxiu Alliance branch team in Songhai City. He stared at Odd Zhuo and Warden Liang’s head on the ground, he sneered. “Director Zhuo, the evidence is conclusive that you killed Warden Liang. Now we officially arrest you in the name of the branch team!”
