Yu Qiuyao stood up, picked up the wine glass in front of her and drank it all in one gulp.
After putting down her wine glass, she bowed to Lin Ji to the end.
"Junior, I still have important matters to attend to, so I'll take my leave now."
"Leaving now?" Lin Ji nodded and said, "Are you going back to report the news? Okay, if I keep you, I will make you feel uneasy, so go ahead."
After receiving Lin Ji's consent, Yu Qiuyao breathed a sigh of relief, bowed to the end again, and quickly left the restaurant.
After Yu Qiuyao left, Lin Ji looked at Cheng Xiao who was standing aside.
He first looked Cheng Xiao up and down, until he felt uncomfortable all over, and then finally spoke.
"Where did your news come from?"
"Master Lin..." Cheng Xiao hesitated, unwilling to tell the truth.
Lin Ji was not in a hurry. He picked up the wine glass and took another sip before saying, "The old man from the Huang family just left in the morning. It's only the evening and you are asking someone to come out and sell information. This is too fast."
As he spoke, Lin Ji's tone gradually became cold.
"Cheng Xiao, right? Everyone in the government office should know about my meeting with Daoyou Huang, but they know the content of our conversation... Apart from me and Daoyou Huang, there were only two people present, Geng Mu and Gao Ling, so
Who told you this news?"
After finishing his words, Lin Ji picked up another vegetable that Kuaizi didn't recognize, tasted it, and frowned.
After all, I still like to eat meat. Even if the white meat is not cooked enough, it is better than this green stuff.
Cheng Xiao, who was on the side, lowered his head and was still unwilling to speak.
Lin Ji picked up the wine glass and drank another glass. He put down the glass without looking at Xiao Xiao and asked himself: "Is it an spy? Or is it some other means?"
"If it was an eyeliner, could it be Gao Ling or Geng Mu? This would be too outrageous... But if it were another eyeliner, how could he hide it from me, or from that old guy Huang Zhong, spying on us secretly?
conversation?"
Having said this, Lin Ji finally put down the kuaizi in his hand, and the smile on his face completely disappeared.
"It has only been a few days since Lin took office, and you have already obtained the top-secret information in the study...Cheng Xiao, you said that if I don't get to the bottom of this matter, will you still be able to sit securely in your current position in the future? What about that?
What do you mean... you can't allow others to snore on the side of the bed, you don't understand this, right?"
After hearing this, Cheng Xiao finally gave up.
Although Lin Ji's tone was relaxed, he could hear an unquestionable firmness in it.
It is obviously impossible to get through by cheating and cheating.
Thinking of this, Cheng Xiao said: "Sir, if I tell the truth, can you let me go?"
"No." Lin Ji shook his head decisively.
Cheng Xiao was stunned. He had never dealt with someone as happy as Lin Ji, but this kind of happiness was not what he wanted.
Generally speaking, even if you intend to get to the bottom of it in your heart, shouldn't you still be conciliatory on the surface?
"Do you think Lin is too direct?" Lin Ji raised his eyebrows and directly expressed what Cheng Xiao was thinking.
Cheng Xiao looked shocked and quickly lowered his head.
"Among the six powers of Buddhism, it's just the mind. You've been hanging out in Weizhou, haven't you heard of this great magical power of Buddhism?"
Seeing Cheng Xiao's panic, Lin Jize continued to smile and said, "There's no need to panic. He's psychic and can't see what other people are thinking. He can just detect some clues, such as whether you're lying or not."
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Ji filled up his own wine glass, then picked up the wine jar and filled up Cheng Xiao's glass as well.
"Since you were able to spy on the conversation between me and Huang Zhong, you should also know what happened to Huang Chengjie and his son in prison, right? If you tell it more honestly, Lin might let you go at his own discretion. But if you keep going like this
If your whining is so annoying, Mr. Lin will have to let you go to jail for a few days before bringing you up for interrogation."
"It's my bloodline magical power, called Qianli Er." Cheng Xiao didn't dare to hesitate and said quickly, "This magical power can only be practiced by my bloodline... To be honest, my ancestor is actually the descendant of the human race and the demon race.
, so I also have some blood of the demon clan in my lower body.”
It was true that Lin Ji put too much pressure on him. He was not passionate or angry, but every word he said was like a sharp knife thrust through him, making people feel scared when they heard it.
Lin Ji was not surprised when he heard Cheng Xiao's answer.
After all, what method should be used? If it was really one of Geng Mu and Gao Ling who revealed the news, then he would really want to cry without tears.
"Thousand-mile ear? This name is too tacky... Among the six Buddhist powers, there is also the Tian'er ear. What's so special about your thousand-mile ear?" Lin Ji became somewhat interested.
Now that he has spoken, Cheng Xiao obviously will not continue to hide it.
"Qianlier is the name I gave myself. I say Qianlier, but in fact I am looking at it through the eyes of others... The term Qianlier is just to deceive others."
Cheng Xiao said: "There are many people who know about my clairvoyance. If they are on guard, they usually just put up soundproofing means. This will cause a lot of trouble for me."
"There are many people who know your ability? Then what were you doing so hard before?" Lin Ji was surprised.
Cheng Xiao smiled bitterly and said: "Of course I dare to tell nonsense in front of others, but if I dare to lie in front of Mr. Lin... I'm afraid the end will not be too good."
"That's it." Lin Ji suddenly realized.
It turns out that I was too frightened to lie and didn't want to reveal the truth, so I was too slow to speak.
Cheng Xiao continued: "My so-called clairvoyance actually uses my soul to leave my body and possess me without being noticed by others... But even if I am possessed, I can only use other people's eyes and ears to see things and inquire about things."
According to the news, if you want to do anything else, it is too much, let alone fight with others, so although this magical power is weird, it is quite useless."
"It's worthless?" Lin Ji shook his head and said, "Can anyone be possessed by it?"
"It can only be someone whose realm of Yuan Shen is lower than mine." Cheng Xiao said truthfully, "When I first entered Qi Yang, I was able to have my Yuan Shen leave the body. This is a special feature of my demon bloodline, so I
Although it is only in the middle stage of the day tour, the soul is slightly stronger than the monks in the later stage."
Hearing this, Lin Jimo rubbed his chin and thought for a moment, then suddenly shouted downstairs: "Waiter, come and pay!"
"Sir, here you come!"
The waiter quickly ran up to the second floor.
Lin Jize stood up and looked at Cheng Xiao without paying.
Cheng Xiao was stunned for a moment before he realized what he was doing. He cursed a few words in his heart, then took out the money from his pocket and paid the bill.
"Master Lin is leaving? Then I..."
"With evil intentions, spying on the top secrets of Jian Tiansi... This should be a serious crime of decapitation, but Lin is a Weizhou town official, so this matter is not big or small." Lin Ji said as he went downstairs.
Cheng Xiao quickly followed.
When he reached the door of the restaurant, Lin Ji finally stopped.
"I'll give you two choices, either come back to the government office with me, and I'll give you a Traveling Star Token, and you'll do things for me from now on."
"Sir, what's the second option?"
"I will take you back to the government office and torture you severely. Then I will give you a Traveling Star Token and use some tricks on you to force you to do things for me."
"Sir, I choose the first one." Cheng Xiao looked desperate.
It broke, and now it has become a court eagle dog.
