Chapter 478 Interrogation
Haidong Island is one of the eighteen islands of Tianzong, and among the eighteen islands, Haidong Island's ranking is not too high, but it is not too low, it just exists in a satisfactory manner.
The owner of the island, Wan Tianxing, is a cultivator at the fifth level of Wangtian Realm. It sounds like his cultivation level is relatively low. After all, he is one of the rulers of the Eighteen Islands. His superficial strength, his real strength, is far more than that.
There was once a cultivator at the seventh level of the Wangtian Realm who came to Haidong Island to find fault, but in the end he was directly blasted to pieces. It was that battle that established his absolute majesty.
In addition to being powerful, this person's management method is also quite special among the eighteen islands. The island is divided into four districts, each of which has nearly a million people, but these four districts are divided by two The intersecting city walls are separated, like a perfectly round cake being cut into four evenly by a knife, which looks a bit weird.
And because there is a city wall as a barrier, there is basically no other way for each district to enter other areas except through the city gate. It is just that entering other areas, living, traveling or playing in other areas is not free, and there are still some corresponding The condition, this condition is very simple, that is to turn in the True Profound Stone.
For example, Zheng Xie originally lived in the Eastern District, and then accidentally thought of going to the Northern District for fun, so he had to hand in five lower-level True Profound Stones at the gate of the city. If he stayed in the North District for a day, he would have to pay the overnight fee and the management fee, about fifteen low-level True Profound Stones.
In addition, in addition to tourists, some want to settle in other areas, it depends on whether this person has contributed to Haidong Island, judged according to the contribution, how much should be charged, if an ordinary resident wants to To emigrate, at least 250 lower-rank True Profound Stones must be handed in at one time. If it is someone like Wang Tianjue, then only ten lower-rank True Profound Stones will be handed over.
In a word, in this Haidong Island, people who don't have a real mysterious stone can hardly move an inch. Even if you want to take your family to play, you have to carefully consider the cost and other issues.
Of course, where True Profound Stones are consumed, True Profound Stones can naturally be earned. Some guys with bright heads have developed very well in various regions. These people often do not have high cultivation, but they are extremely rich.
It's just that although there are so many industries in this world, in this place, there are actually only three types of the most profitable ones. The first is to be a land developer, the second is to do credit loan sharks, and the third is to do tourism projects , but although these people can earn a lot of money from civilians every year, in fact, they hand over a lot of money to Haidong Tower.
If they earned ten True Profound Stones, then five of them belonged to Haidong Pagoda, but they didn't mind, as they had made a contribution, and the higher the contribution, the better their lives would be on this Haidong Island. The more moist it is.
That's right, this is Wan Tianxing's management method. Those with strength can get benefits, and those with brains can also get benefits. Only those vulgar and ordinary people can only live at the bottom of Haidong Island all their lives. It may sound unfair, but in this world, even the land is uneven, so where is the so-called fairness?
……
Besides the black boat, they stopped at the pier in the East District, and eighteen people got off the boat one by one, and the people who picked them up were the black and white couple who were entrusted by Wan Tianxing to investigate the matter of ten thousand yuan.
The name of the man in black robe is Zhao Ri, and the name of the woman in white robe is Zhao Yue. Xiu, now he can be regarded as a celebrity around Wan Tianxing.
There is nothing special about the pier in the East District. There are only a few fishing boats floating slowly on the lake, and the land is directly connected to a main street in the East District.
Among the 15 people who were going to participate in the assessment, although except for Zheng Xie, most of the other [-] people were kidnapped, but the moment they saw the bustling street in front of them on the pier, they felt very upset. There are few surprises and feelings, at least at this moment, they forget the fear in their hearts.
After meeting Zhao Ri and Zhao Yue, Wang Tianjue, on behalf of everyone, began to describe the specific situation with them in a place far away from the pier.
"Cultivation is at least the late stage of Life Decision Realm?" After listening to Wang Tianjue's words, Zhao Ri frowned, seeming to have doubts.
"Yes, the aura I felt that night can only be released by cultivators who are above the late stage of the decisive stage, and on the black boat, the two of you also saw it. Apart from me, Wu Cheng and Qing Meiren are the only ones who can release it. The rest of the people are mortals at the initial stage of Life Determination Realm, so I guess that person should be a cultivator who secretly followed the black boat." Wang Tianjue said again.
"There is some truth in what you said, but this matter has not been resolved for a day, whether you or the people you brought, you are all suspected of committing the crime, understand?" Zhao Ri said seriously with his eyes moving.
"Naturally understand, I will definitely cooperate with the two of you..." After a while, Wang Tianjue continued: "Then next, if the two of you have nothing to explain, I will take them to Haidong Pagoda .”
But at this time, Zhao Ri shook his head and said: "Don't worry! I didn't say it, not only you, they are also suspected, whether it is a mortal or a cultivator, we need to chat with them one by one, in case Some important clue was missed."
"Eh? Ordinary people want it too?" Wang Tianjue asked in surprise.
"Yes! After all, this is an important task entrusted to us by the island owner. If something goes wrong, we brothers and sisters cannot bear the anger of the island owner!" Zhao Ri nodded seriously, and his eyes turned to the ten on five people.
……
After a while, Zhao Ri and Zhao Yue set up two rooms on the boat, and a total of seventeen people, including Wu Cheng and Qingmeiren, had to enter the room and be interrogated by the two of them. Zhao Ri interrogated Qingmeiren and Qingmeiren. Zhao Yue interrogated Wu Cheng and the remaining seven mortals, and the division of labor was very clear.
Qing Meiren and Wu Cheng were the first to go in, but the two of them came out soon. After all, they were from Haidong Island, so their suspicions would naturally not be very strong, but the remaining fifteen mortals would not. same.
When a young man who entered the room came out, everyone showed a trace of fear, because this person's body was already stained with blood. Although he did not die, he was also seriously injured.
"Oh! Then Zhao Ri is so cruel." Qing Meiren said in surprise.
"Isn't this a normal thing? The interrogator will naturally torture the suspect!" Wang Tianjue said coldly.
Wu Cheng, who heard these words, frowned. He wanted to do something, but was stopped by Wang Tianjue in the end.
"Let's forget it! Your actions will only make them more unable to get rid of the suspicion, and they may suffer even more later. Why bother?" Wang Tianjue said clearly.
Wu Cheng couldn't say it, but between gritting his teeth, he still gave up the thought in his heart, because he knew that what Wang Tianjue said was right.
Looking at the mortal who came out of Zhao Yue's house, although he was not injured, his spirit was in a trance. With a pale face, he walked a few steps and fell to the ground.
"Illusion?" Wang Tianjue murmured with a flash of his eyes.
"Tsk tsk tsk, it's nothing more than torture, but they even used illusions on mortals. It seems that they are really under a lot of pressure!" Qing Meiren said.
But at this time, Wu Cheng was also complicated and silent, his figure moved, hugged the young man directly, and then put him safely on the deck away from the house.
It's just that the rest of the mortals who saw the fate of these two people felt great panic at this moment,
"No! I don't want to go in, don't!" For a moment, everyone was confused and panicked.
It's a pity that no matter how chaotic or flustered they are, it is useless. After all, they are only mortals, mortals who have the least ability to resist, so when they should go in, they still have to go in.
From time to time, it finally came to Zheng Xie, who had been silent all this time, the real... murderer.
