55: The Word Spirit

The staff member asked a series of questions.

Li Canglan answered them all according to the answers he had prepared in advance.

There were no flaws.

"Congratulations on clearing your name, Mr. He Xinghai."

Hearing this, Li Canglan finally let out a sigh of relief.

Just then, the door suddenly opened.

A middle-aged man with a kind expression walked in.

"Next, you only need to test your Martial Artist Rank and elemental talent on the device."

"Once confirmed, you can leave the Patrol Guard."

As soon as he finished speaking, a loud rumbling sound suddenly erupted.

A massive testing device rose from the ground and appeared in front of Li Canglan.

Compared to the ones Li Canglan had used before, this testing device was larger and more comprehensive.

Li Canglan stepped forward and placed his hand on the device's port.

【Martial Artist Rank: One-Star Warrior Middle Stage】

【Elemental Talent: Lightning Element S, Wind Element A】

Subtitles appeared, and a surprised voice came over the broadcast.

"To think he has both Lightning and Wind talents?"

The Patrol Guard members in the control room were all astonished.

An A-Rank talent is already considered to be above the average person.

As long as they have enough corresponding elemental potions, their strength increases much faster than other Martial Artists.

Not to mention the lofty S-Rank talent!

Captain Fu, who was leaning back in his chair, also had his eyes light up.

An S-Rank talent, what a promising seed!

Not to mention, killing a Peak One-Star Demonic Beast while at the Middle Stage of a One-Star Warrior!

Among the same Rank, he is absolutely one in ten thousand!

The only drawback is that his strength is a bit too weak.

But as long as there are resources, he doesn't need to fear being weak!

Such a person must be brought into their Patrol Guard!

The results of the elemental talent test also lowered Captain Fu's suspicion of Li Canglan.

With an S-Rank talent, there is no need to risk killing Chen Qinian.

The kind middle-aged man smiled faintly and asked, "What grudge do you have with Chen Qinian?"

Li Canglan sneered inwardly.

The Patrol Guard is actually using this kind of trick question?

"I don't know..."

However, at that moment, Li Canglan suddenly changed his tone.

"I killed Chen Qinian!"

!!!

Li Canglan was horrified, but he couldn't control his own mouth.

What on earth was going on?

In his plan, as long as he denied ever having any dealings with Chen Qinian.

And hid his identity under the mask given by Uncle He, no one could convict him!

However, he never expected that he would admit it himself!

In the control room, the people who had almost completely dispelled their suspicions all felt a chill in their hearts!

Crack!

Captain Fu even crushed the teacup in his hand!

Such a Genius, and yet he committed the crime of killing a Martial Artist!

But the law is merciless, and as the Commander Fu of the Patrol Guard.

He could not ignore the existence of the law just because of the other party's talent!

A moment later, the door suddenly opened.

More than a dozen Patrol Guard members walked in one after another, surrounding Li Canglan.

The leader was a middle-aged man around forty with a square face.

The middle-aged man sat down in front of Li Canglan and asked, "He Xinghai, what else do you have to say?"

Li Canglan forced himself to calm down and said in a calm tone, "I don't know what methods you used, but that was definitely not my intention!"

Even though Li Canglan forced himself to remain calm, he could still hear his own voice trembling.

He had no idea what unknown methods the Patrol Guard had used!

"Keep making excuses, keep being stubborn."

The middle-aged man sneered and introduced the middle-aged man next to him, "This is our Patrol Guard's Deputy Commander Zheng, an Ability User who possesses the Speech Spirit talent!"

"Anyone with strength weaker than Deputy Commander Zheng cannot hide their truest intentions!"

"What you just said can be used as evidence to accuse you of murdering Chen Qinian!"

Li Canglan only felt a chill rise up, trembling with fear.

To think it was another Ability User!

Except for people like Keer who started halfway, this was the first Ability User he had encountered!

And he even possessed a lie-detecting ability like Speech Spirit!

However, in a large city like Luofeng City, it didn't seem hard to understand that the Patrol Guard would support an Ability User.

Li Canglan's expression changed constantly.

At this point, continuing to hold out seemed to have become a futile resistance.

Thinking of this, Li Canglan's gaze slowly became calm.

He let out a long sigh, looking indifferent again, "Yes, I killed Chen Qinian."

As soon as these words were spoken, the Patrol Guard was in an uproar.

Many people looked at Li Canglan with regret.

Such a Genius would surely be a pillar of the Human Race in the future.

But having committed such a murder, even a Genius could not escape punishment.

More importantly, Chen Zhaoan, the director of the War Preparation Bureau, had been watching this place!

The only thing waiting for him seemed to be a dead end!

"But I have a question."

Not waiting for the middle-aged man to answer, Li Canglan said with an indignant expression, "Could it be that Chen Qinian brought a team of Martial Artists to surround and kill me, wanting to seize the beast ears I obtained from killing the Demonic Beast?"

"Am I just supposed to let them slaughter me without resisting?"

The middle-aged Martial Artist was silent, and the door opened again.

The one who entered this time was the leader of the Patrol Guard.

Captain Fu!

"Do you have any evidence for what you said?"

Captain Fu's calm words carried a hint of excitement.

Although the evidence of the other party killing someone was conclusive.

But if there was a reason, it could also be judged as self-defense or excessive defense.

There was still room for maneuver.

Li Canglan shook his head, "No."

Captain Fu sighed.

He understood that it was actually very difficult to leave evidence for this kind of thing.

"Without evidence, any Martial Artist who kills someone in the wild can say it was self-defense."

"Sorry, I cannot believe your one-sided story."

Seeing Captain Fu preparing to turn and leave, Li Canglan suddenly thought of something in his anxiety.

"Sir, I think this Deputy Commander Zheng can prove my innocence!"

Hearing this, Captain Fu couldn't help but stop, his face darkening.

Although he knew Li Canglan was trying to build a relationship.

But, old Zheng is called Deputy Commander Zheng.

What am I called?

Envoy Fu?

Who is Zheng, and who is Fu!

However, he knew that now was not the time to dwell on this.

Old Zheng's ability is usually used to convict suspects of serious crimes.

For ordinary cases, there is no need to trouble Old Zheng.

This kind of mental ability consumes a lot of energy.

It is impossible to trouble him personally for every case.

Otherwise, just let Old Zheng sit at the city gate and ask every Martial Artist who enters.

And no one would dare to kill.

Because of this, the number of times Old Zheng's special ability has been used to clear suspicion is truly unique!

Captain Fu looked at Zheng Jianren on the side.

"Old Zheng, what do you think..."

Zheng Jianren nodded and asked, "Why did you kill Chen Qinian?"

Li Canglan recounted everything, about Chen Qinian bringing a team of Martial Artists to surround him.

And narrating clearly the process of one of the Martial Artists "inviting" him to leave with ill intentions.

Although in Li Canglan's account, Chen Qinian did not explicitly state that he wanted to kill him.

But at least it could reduce Li Canglan's responsibility.

It could definitely be reduced from premeditated murder to the boundary of excessive defense or self-defense.

Seeing Captain Fu and the others wavering, Li Canglan quickly continued, "Two sirs, I believe this is definitely not the first time Chen Qinian has done this."

"As long as the Patrol Guard is willing to put in the effort, you will definitely be able to find evidence of Chen Qinian repeatedly robbing, and even directing Martial Artists to attack other Martial Artists."

Captain Fu also did not want to wrong any good person.

He immediately signaled other Patrol Guard members to collect relevant information.

At this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door.

"Commander Fu, Elder He from the Martial Arts Pavilion and Director Guan from the Jinghai Martial Arts Hall have something to discuss with you."

Captain Fu took a deep look at Li Canglan.

This guy's backing is a bit solid!

To think he is worth two Five-Star Martial Artists coming together!
