On the Seven Towers

Chapter 725: The Person Outside the Door

When Tang Feng and Catalina began to search the room, Xiao Chen stood in front of Zhang Hong's body in silence.

There was one thing he didn't tell others just now. Before Zhang Hong died completely, he received Zhang Hong's call from the soul level: "Please let me become your spirit servant. I don't want to die, I can surrender to you. Save me."

However, Xiao Chen's answer was: "I don't want it."

Zhang Hong said anxiously: "After I become a spirit servant, I will admit all the sins, and I will get you out of trouble, including the trouble that killed me during the interrogation today. Saving me is to help yourself, quickly make me your spirit servant!"

"You don't deserve it." Xiao Chen immediately cut off the connection with Zhang Hong.

Evelin came over and said, "You look very bad."

"Nothing, I just made a decision that was not very satisfactory. I had the opportunity to spare his life, and I also had the opportunity to make him my spirit servant, but both times, I chose 'no'. In fact, I know that if I keep him as a spirit servant, he will basically be at my mercy and will no longer pose any threat to me, but I still chose to let him die.

I remember that you just told me another entrustment of mine two days ago. However, I think I still chose the more cruel path." Xiao Chen frowned and said, "I'm just thinking about what made me go further and further on this road."

"You have too many things on your shoulders, don't make it difficult for yourself." Tang Feng said, he took off the storage ring on Zhang Hong's hand, held it in his hand and analyzed the entry restriction on it.

"Can you open it? The restriction set by Zhang Hong is still a little difficult for me." He handed the ring to Xiao Chen.

Xiao Chen used his mental power to feel the ring, and then roughly understood the principle of the restriction. It took less than five minutes to unlock it.

Tang Feng took the ring and looked inside. "There are a lot of gold and silver coins, all of which are the Empire's golden eagles and silver feathers. This should be considered evidence that the Empire funded or bribed him. There is nothing else related to the Empire. Zhang Hong is really cautious and didn't leave any other clues."

Catrina said: "There is nothing related to the Empire in the room. Fortunately, we secretly recorded the whole process before."

Tang Feng said: "Do you think recording is a good thing? In this video, it can be seen that we didn't give him a chance, but directly let him be killed by the space rift. It may not be a problem."

He walked to Zhang Hong's body and carefully felt his pockets soaked in blood. Then he said: "All of you remember, everything today was ordered by me. If someone investigates it later, put it on me. I asked you to participate in the arrest because Zhang Hong is very powerful. I asked you to kill Zhang Hong without mercy when he escaped. I asked not to give him any chance. Speak according to what I said and unify the caliber. Do you understand?"

Before Xiao Chen and others answered, they found that the door was knocked open from the outside. Jiang Yitian walked in with a few people from the Intelligence Bureau, looking at everyone in the room with a smile: "Say one thing? What needs to say one thing?"

He walked to the "blood man" Zhang Hong on the ground, squatted down to examine his body: "What a miserable death. Tang Feng, what's going on? Why didn't you inform me of this operation? And let Zhang Hong, an important suspect, die here?"

"I found evidence that Zhang Hong is a traitor." Tang Feng took out the paper with evidence again and handed it to Jiang Yitian, "The situation is urgent. Zhang Hong is afraid of escaping, so we took action directly after we got the evidence. We originally wanted to control the person and then notify you and Team Leader Bai. But I didn't expect Zhang Hong to escape by force, and the teleportation magic failed, and then it became like this."

"Oh, so that's it." Jiang Yitian took the evidence, flipped through it a few times, and looked back Looking at Xiao Chen, "It's one thing that Zhang Hong has problems, but why would my investigation target participate in this operation with you?"

Tang Feng explained: "Zhang Hong is a high-level mage, and it's difficult for Katarina and I to subdue him. So I asked these three high-level mage to help."

"Why? I'm also a high-level mage. Do you not trust me? Or do you not trust our intelligence department?" Jiang Yitian asked aggressively, "It's good to catch Zhang Hong as a traitor. But the way you acted is very problematic. How do you know there is only one traitor? How do you know that no one will use his death to cover up something? How do you know that these helpers you found have nothing to do with the dead person? Could it be another suspect?"

Tang Feng said: "I act based on evidence, not on guesswork or nonsense!"

"Is it based on evidence that is pushed on your head and unified?" Jiang Yitian smiled coldly.

"You!"

"I have been here more than once, Zhang Hong, and I left some small things here before." Jiang Yitian took out a small black round block from Zhang Hong's pen holder. It was engraved with a delicate magic circle, but there was no magic fluctuation. "The biggest advantage of the magic world is that it can find a new way to copy the technological products we had in the previous world, including eavesdropping devices. I heard every word you said after entering the room. I even heard Xiao Chen admit that he had the opportunity to prevent Zhang Hong from dying, but he still chose to let him die.

So, I am now going to arrest Xiao Chen on suspicion of murder and Tang Feng on suspicion of dereliction of duty. Of course, if you think these charges are not enough, I can also throw out charges such as intentional injury and leaking confidential information.

Do you have anything else to say? "

"Jiang Yitian! Don't go too far! I know what you have in mind! Do you know what Xiao Chen represents?"

"I'm doing things impartially, why should I care about him?" Jiang Yitian said disdainfully.

Tang Feng pointed at the intelligence department behind him and said, "You are all from the Action Bureau, think about what you should do!"

"Tang Feng, by the way, just before we came in, you were dismissed by me because you were involved in a major case. You don't trust your own subordinates, why should they trust you?"

Seeing that those people were silent, Tang Feng knew their choice. Originally, these people were arranged by Jiang Yitian, so he was not surprised to do so.

Jiang Yitian said again: "Xiao Chen, do you have anything else to say? Or do you want to launch a magic resistance? Escape? I admit that I am not your opponent. If you want to run, I can't deal with you like you dealt with Zhang Hong. "

Xiao Chen glanced at him and asked, "If I go with you, do I need to wear handcuffs?"

"Brother Xiao!"

"Xiao Chen! Jiang Yitian, you must understand that you are challenging the dark elves..."

Xiao Chen waved his hand to Catalina and Evelyn to stop them from talking, and walked to Jiang Yitian: "Start your performance."

Jiang Yitian snorted coldly: "There are still some issues that have not been explained clearly about you guys. You are not allowed to leave Suero these days. As for Xiao Chen and Tang Feng, you should follow me back to Hewan New City!"
