The arrogant imperial concubine arrives, the favorite of the regent
Chapter 1066 Breakthrough, Events and People
Netherworld Jiuchong believes that the cause of the young master's death is not as simple as the evidence collected so far suggests.
Among them, there is a profound...
But when it came to tracking down clues, Youming Jiuchong had previously asked his subordinates in the capital to track down the couple who picked up the young master, but those two had already died.
Why did they die? The neighbors who were interviewed said that the old couple were already weak, and one day they were summoned to the government office for unknown reasons. After returning home, they did not go out for a long time and died within a year.
Youming Jiuchong analyzed that the couple was summoned to the government office because he was afraid that they would pick up the child and secretly detain him. This behavior would lead to punishment from the government. Moreover, the child they picked up died in their hands. Even if it was not their fault, the child died beside them after all, so they could not escape the blame.
After the couple took the little boy away, their behavior was a little different from usual, and the baby's cry could be heard from time to time in their dilapidated thatched house. Then people around them began to notice something was wrong, and the old couple was reported by people nearby who noticed their behavior. Then someone reported them to the government, and they were summoned by the government for interrogation.
They couldn't hand over the little boy who had died long ago, so they could only make up an excuse that they had put the child back in the alley where he was dumped, and they didn't know who picked him up again. In short, he had nothing to do with them anymore.
The yamen had no choice but to let the couple go. However, because of their guilty conscience, the couple was frightened during the trial and their health became worse. In addition, their life was difficult, the living environment in the slum was poor, they were old and weak, and their mental illness was difficult to cure. It was normal for them to die.
The point is that the couple's absence is not a big deal, it just temporarily cuts off the clues from the couple. Right now, the most urgent task is to strike while the iron is hot and find out the truth about the young master's death...
Not only to receive the three conditions set by Soul Taker, but also to resolve some of the confusion in his heart...
Netherworld Nine retracted his cold eyes, raised his hand, and spoke again.
"Keep investigating until you find out the truth."
As soon as these words came out, others also knew Lord Youming's determination. They were startled and responded heavily.
Netherworld Nine suddenly stood up and stared at the crowd below slowly.
He instructed Manager Mo and his group, "Check all the neighbors in the area where the old couple has lived in the past three years. Start from the day when the old couple picked up the child."
The old couple lives in an area close to the city suburbs, which is the intersection of Doumen District and Wuxin District.
Manager Mo and the others' eyes lit up, and they were very happy about this plan. That's right! Why didn't they think of it! Although the old couple who could help find clues about the young master are dead, they can start with people related to the old couple.
Moreover, they had previously investigated the people in that slum area according to the orders of the Lord of Hell, and had found some clues by piecing together. However, if they wanted to find deeper clues, such as the specific cause of the young master's death, they could not find any clues at all.
Youming Jiuchong's thin lips moved slightly, and he knew what the people below were thinking.
He patiently added one more sentence: "Maybe there are omissions in the events and people back then."
It is true that the killers from the Night Palace and Mu Shi have searched all the residents in that area, but what about those who have left that place?
In other words, the people they are currently in contact with are still staying in the local area, but the world is so big and with so many people coming and going, it is inevitable that there will be a movement of people.
Perhaps some of the people who knew about the old couple and the young master left the area for various reasons and went to other places.
And these migrants, and some of the things that these migrants may know in the back of their minds…
The key breakthrough for the investigation by Mu Xi, Ming Palace and Ye Wangfu lies in this...
After a few analyses and explanations, Netherworld Nine was able to ease the temporary stalemate.
There is another village after the dark clouds and bright flowers, and clear skies after the clouds have cleared.
This group of people under the name of Netherworld Nine Levels once again had a bright direction, and it was the Lord of the Underworld who personally guided them.
Deep admiration appeared in everyone's eyes, and they couldn't help but focus their gaze on that person.
Netherworld Jiuchong seemed not to notice the gazes of the crowd, and he did not focus his eyes on any specific person in front of him.
Inside the magnificent hall, there were candlesticks lit with bright candles all around. Even though they were underground, it was no different from being on the ground. If there was a big difference, it was that the underground environment was much more hidden.
However, the underground palace is full of twists and turns, countless rooms, and passages that lead in all directions. Sometimes, if you don't light many lamps and torches, you can still see some special features.
Because the underground palace can also be eerie, if some people arrive here for the first time and see such a grand and deep palace, they will have complex emotions in their hearts, of course, the worst of them is fear.
Netherworld Nineth Layer would not be afraid of any environment, and he always looked calm. Moreover, it was he who decided to build the Netherworld Palace underground.
Netherworld Nineth Level paced a few steps on the high platform, his eyes fixed on a few lampstands in a dark corner.
He raised his arm slightly, waved his wide sleeves lightly, and a breeze blew towards that direction.
I saw that in that corner, many lamps were extinguished by the world.
The magnificent hall suddenly became much dimmer, and the gloomy atmosphere spreading from the ground was shrouded here. This is the appearance of the real underground palace, gloomy and mysterious, which is quite in line with the pavilion owner's sinister and cold personality.
Everyone's heart couldn't help but shrink, and they cautiously cast their eyes on the man with the cold face.
Netherworld Nine simply said calmly: "It's too bright."
Everyone was stunned, but Youming Jiuchong lowered his brows slightly, hiding the bloodthirsty red in his eyes.
Wei Song and a few others took a careful look and immediately thought of the changes that happened to their master on the night of the blood moon.
At that time, they could clearly feel that their master had indeed changed, but they did not dare to take any action, because in such a special situation, if they blindly did something wrong, it would very likely bring a very bad impact to their master.
So for them, all they can do is to keep an eye on their master's every move and protect them from doing anything out of line or hurting themselves.
In addition, they also pay attention to the master's physical condition at all times, and write down what the master did when he was unconscious, so that when the master wakes up, they, as subordinates, can have a rough idea. Of course, they cannot clearly tell the whole story of all the events when the master lost his mind, because they may accidentally irritate the master.
At that time, Wei Song and the others had seen the strange phenomena that occurred in the Netherworld after that night, and they guessed that it might be because of the blood moon that the Lord of the Underworld's body had undergone corresponding changes.
What everyone is thinking now is that the Lord of the Underworld has some aftereffects and some changes, for example, he doesn't like strong light and prefers the eerie and quiet atmosphere under the blood moon.
Netherworld Jiuchong slightly raised his eyebrows, and no one knew what he was thinking about. However, he was somewhat different from that night and the days after that night. At least he did not show obvious signs of physical discomfort as he did that night and the days after that night.
Netherworld Nineth Level took a glimpse of the scene and nodded slightly with a faint arc that ordinary people could hardly detect. Only then did he calm down and turn around to discuss matters with everyone again...
"I have one more thing to say..."
