Volume 3: The Case of Hundred Ghosts at Night Chapter 97: Closing
After hearing Duan Ming's words, Xing Qianqiu swung the long sword in his hand and cut open the sleeves of Chu Hao and the servant. As expected, there was a metal object in the cuffs of the two.
Xu Shizhong stepped forward, removed the metal object, and then pulled it gently, and immediately pulled out a sharp steel wire.
Looking at the sun, this steel wire looks very strange. One side is as sharp as a blade, but the other side seems to be very smooth.
"So, do you have anything else you want to defend?" Duan Ming asked with a smile.
"As expected of the Nancheng Detective, we are not unjust for falling into your hands." Chu Hao sighed longly: "I thought this plan was perfect, but I didn't expect you to have deduced it so completely based on just guessing."
"How can there be a truly seamless plan in the world?" Duan Ming smiled and looked at Palace Master Chi Yuan: "Even God will make mistakes. Palace Master Chi Yuan, am I right?"
"That's right." Palace Master Chi Yuan took a deep look at Duan Ming: "Mr. Duan is really talented. I and my religion were rude before. Please don't take offense to Mr. Duan."
"What are you talking about, Master of the Hall?" Duan Ming smiled and shook his head: "If it weren't for the help of the Immortality Cult, how could these pretenders be so easily fooled? It was a great achievement of the Immortality Cult to solve this case.
"
"That's right." Xing Qianqiu nodded: "As expected, Palace Master Chi Yuan kept his word and fully assisted our Mingjing Division in solving the strange case. After returning to the capital, Xing will definitely report to the Holy Spirit to serve as Palace Master Chi Yuan and his wife.
Please give me the advice of longevity."
"Haha." Palace Master Chi Yuan sneered: "Thank you very much, Commander Xing."
Li Waner stood not far away, quietly looking at the situation in front of her, with the corners of her mouth raised slightly.
Kill people and kill your heart, kill people and kill your heart!
There is no doubt that Xing Qianqiu is killing people now!
"I still have a problem that I haven't figured out." Chu Hao took a deep breath and stared at Duan Ming: "If you do this, if we don't come today, or if we come and don't bring these things, you
what to do?"
"What else can we do? Just admit it." Duan Ming spread his hands: "If the Mirror Division saves me, it will be saved. If not, I will die."
"...Is it worth it?" Chu Hao pondered for a moment and asked.
"It's not worth it." Duan Ming shook his head: "But I have no other choice. If not, this case cannot be solved, and neither the Mirror Division nor the Immortality Cult will let me go."
"The Immortality Cult? What does this matter have to do with the Immortality Cult?" Chu Hao narrowed his eyes slightly.
"How come it doesn't matter?" Duan Ming sighed: "The purpose of the Immortality Sect holding the Immortality Ceremony is to drive away evil spirits like you. So if someone dies after the Immortality Ceremony, what will the Immortality Church do?"
"Of course we have to find someone to top the tank." Duan Ming sighed: "But most people are not qualified to do it, so they can only find me, a non-staff consultant of the Spiegel Department, to top the tank."
"So, I will definitely not end well."
"Because of this, I must solve this case, even if it means taking some risks."
"Oh, it's so difficult for me..."
"Pfft!" After hearing the last four words, Li Waner finally couldn't help laughing.
It has to be said that Duan Ming is sometimes wise, but sometimes he is a drama queen.
It can fool people into being stunned every time.
"Okay!" Palace Master Chi Yuan suddenly said: "In this case, let's end this farce."
"Commander Xing." Palace Master Chi Yuan looked at Xing Qianqiu: "So many people are watching, let's execute these people."
"Execution?" Xing Qianqiu looked at Palace Master Chi Yuan, smiled and shook his head: "I'm sorry, at least not yet."
"Why?" Master Chi Yuan said solemnly.
"I came to investigate this case on your Majesty's order. Now that the real culprit has been arrested, he will naturally be escorted back to Beijing to await His Majesty's fate." Xing Qianqiu said solemnly.
"Okay, then I wish Commander Xing a good journey." Palace Master Chi Yuan suddenly smiled and said in a deep voice.
Then the master of Chi Yuan Palace stood up and said to the people of the Immortality Sect: "Let's go, there is nothing for our sect to do here anymore."
"Immeasurable Immortality!" Everyone in the Immortality Sect announced at the same time, and then left together.
In the blink of an eye, only Duan Ming, the people from the Mirror Division, Chu Hao and others were left on the high platform.
"Okay, things here are over, I'm going back to sleep." Duan Ming stretched out: "I've been exhausted these past few days."
"I'll send you off." Xu Shizhong said hurriedly...
Two days later, everything here had been dealt with, and Xing Qianqiu began to escort Chu Hao and others back to Beijing to resume their duties.
Before leaving, Song Yi took the initiative to find Xing Qianqiu and didn't know what he said to Xing Qianqiu.
But after Song Yi left, Xing Qianqiu's face never looked good.
The night before Xing Qianqiu was about to leave, Xu Shizhong came to Luoyi Lane, but Duan Ming was no longer there.
After making some inquiries, Xu Shizhong came to Duan Zhai on Longmen Road in Beicheng.
The Immortality Sect did not take back the house because Duan Ming solved the case. In other words, even if the Immortality Sect wanted to take it back, it would still depend on whether Duan Ming agreed.
After all, all the procedures are in Duan Ming's hands. In theory, this house belongs to Duan Ming.
When Xu Shizhong came to Duan's house, Duan Ming was sitting in the hall, drinking longevity tea and enjoying the dance of several beauties.
"Hey, isn't this Old Xu?" Duan Ming saw Xu Shizhong and said with a smile: "Come over quickly and take a look. These are indeed the ones carefully selected by the immortal cultivator. This dance, tsk tsk..."
"You moved in so quickly?" Xu Shizhong sat next to Duan Ming and said in a deep voice: "You are not afraid of the Immortality Cult..."
"What are you afraid of?" Duan Ming shook his head: "Palace Master Chi Yuan has left, and the remaining people are not able to deal with me yet. As for you, when will you leave?"
"Tomorrow morning." Xu Shizhong said.
"Well, hurry up and leave, otherwise I'll be disgusted by looking at you." Duan Ming nodded: "By the way, tell Xing Qiandao for me that you don't need to come see me anymore, just leave when you leave.
I won’t give it away either.”
"Okay." Xu Shizhong smiled and nodded.
Xu Shizhong then took out a piece of paper from his arms and handed it to Duan Ming.
"What is this?" Duan Ming picked up the paper in confusion, and when he glanced at it, his expression changed: "Rune of Immortality?"
"That's right, the commander got it after all the hard work last time I went back." Xu Shizhong said with a smile: "The commander saw that you are more concerned about this, so I deliberately brought it this time as a thank you."
"Haha, thank you." Duan Ming smiled and nodded.
"Originally, the commander prepared a hundred taels of gold for you as a reward, but the commander said that compared with the generosity of the Immortality Sect, the hundred taels of gold are really unavailable, so he didn't let me bring it." Xu Shizhong continued.
"Otherwise, who would think it's too much money?" Duan Ming said hurriedly.
"Haha." Xu Shizhong smiled and said nothing.
Xu Shizhong then said goodbye and left here without staying much longer.
The next day, the Mirror Division escorted Chu Hao and others out of Linyang City.
More than a month later, on the fifth day of the first lunar month, a handsome horse rode into Linyang and went straight to Luoyi Lane. He looked at Duan Ming lying in Luoyi Lane and said in a deep voice:
"Your Majesty has decreed that Xing Qianqiu, the deputy commander of the Mirror Division, beheaded outside the Meridian Gate."
