Chapter 852: Chapter 77 Bing Uses Risky Tactics_2

Suddenly captured by Ying Jie, they were both inexplicably frightened.

“Who should start first?” Ying Jie glanced at the two of them and finally fixed his gaze on Ye Ying’s face.

Hmm, Eighth Grade. Logically, his status should be higher, and he should know more information.

He squinted his eyes, a fluffy white bug appearing in his hand.

With a flick, the bug landed on Ye Ying’s face, finally burrowing into his nostril and disappearing.

A hint of pain flashed in Ying Jie’s eyes.

He waited for several breaths.

Ye Ying’s eyes began to turn white, losing all expression, he seemed like a puppet.

He asked, “What is your name?”

“Ye Ying.” Ye Ying replied dully.

Yu Luo, seeing this, widened his eyes in extreme fear.

“Identity.”

“Qing Ge’s guard.”

“Good,” Ying Jie replied with a satisfied smile, asking his most pressing question, “Is Qing Ge connected to Ying Jun’s death?”

“Don’t know.”

“Don’t know?” He furrowed his brow, pondered for a moment, and changed his questioning method, “Has Qing Ge recently issued any orders to you?”

“Lord Qing Ge instructed us to stay in the residence as much as possible to avoid trouble.”

“That’s it?”

“That’s it.”

Ying Jie was taken aback.

This did not match his expectations at all.

That means Qing Ge has not instructed his subordinates to do anything special.

But in his heart, he was convinced that Qing Ge was the murderer.

Ying Jie pondered momentarily, then quickly reached a conclusion.

In this matter, Qing Ge did not use his visible subordinates.

Indeed, if he had done so, it would be too easy to trace back.

Ye Ying was merely a subordinate, unaware of the incident.

This guy is indeed clever.

“Does Qing Ge have any acquaintances in the Royal City?” Ying Jie continued questioning.

No smoke without fire.

It’s impossible to have a flawless interception.

He changed his approach.

“Don’t know.”

“Again, don’t know?” Ying Jie responded, his gaze becoming puzzled, sensing something amiss.

The answer should be either yes or no?

Why is it don’t know?

Knowing nothing at all, how are you a subordinate?

Wait…

Ying Jie suddenly realized another possibility.

“How long have you followed Qing Ge?”

“Almost half a month.” Ye Ying replied dully.

The whites of his eyes seemed to mock him.

Crunch, crunch.

Ying Jie’s teeth ground in frustration.

“You have only followed Qing Ge for half a month, and Qing Ge brought you to the Royal City?” He asked with concealed anger.

To such an unfamiliar place, Qing Ge only brought three subordinates, none of whom were close aides?

Is this reasonable?

Without hesitation, Ying Jie released Yu Luo’s binds and questioned directly, “How long have you followed Qing Ge? Better tell me the truth.”

“Half a month.” Yu Luo answered tremblingly.

This should be unimportant, able to be answered?

Yu Luo knew Ying Jie’s ill intentions but understood that failing to answer truthfully would mean death.

He could only stall for as much time as possible.

Meanwhile, Ying Jie’s teeth ground harder.

Good, also half a month.

Qing Ge, what is your intention?

The situation was strange, completely illogical.

Such illogical behaviors only made Ying Jie more concerned about Qing Ge.

Unusual events must have a cause.

“Where has Qing Ge been and whom has he seen since arriving at the Royal City?” Ying Jie persistently continued his questioning.

“Lord Qing Ge has kept to himself mostly, besides visiting Shi Wu Demon Venerable’s residence, then visiting the Mingyue residence a few times, he hasn’t seen anyone else.”

Ying Jie’s gaze flickered.

Ye Ying’s testimony kept steering Qing Ge towards innocence.

Didn’t foresee such complexity.

In others’ minds, they would have already believed Ying Jun’s death unrelated to Lu Qingshan.

But he thought differently, remaining resolute.

He sighed deeply.

How exactly did Qing Ge intercept Ying Jun?

The matter seemed trapped in a cycle.

Suddenly.

A faint sound came from outside the quiet chamber.

“I told you, unless urgent matters, don’t disturb me.” Ying Jie irritatedly snapped, with a hint of anger.

“Lord, there are replies from Sen Luo King Realm, with attached intelligence.” The person outside responded cautiously, not daring to breathe.

“Sen Luo King Realm’s intelligence is here?” He murmured, recalling his covert contact with Qing Ge’s brother, Chi Pu, the previous day.

His impatience dissipated, exiting the chamber.

Moments later, he returned to the chamber.

An ink jade had appeared in his hand.

As expected, Chi Pu agreed to the collaboration conditions readily.

The ink jade contained detailed information about Qing Ge.

“Let me see your capabilities.” Ying Jie thought, closing his eyes and diving his mind into the ink jade.

After a long time, he opened his eyes.

His gaze filled with suspicion and frustration.

“No wonder he brought subordinates who had only followed him for half a month to the Royal City; it turns out his previous close aides were spies planted by Chi Pu and were just slain by him.”

“Under such circumstances, he couldn’t trust others, so he had to bring people given by Ao Ren Demon Venerable to the Royal City.”
