Chronicles of the Demon Faction

Episode 102 One who looks into the heart of God (2)

“….”

“….”

“….”

“…Kahahahahah! “Why are you guys looking at me like that?”

Still, it seems like he wanted to show that he was confident. The sight of him puffing out his chest and sticking out his stomach was quite majestic.

But the eyes of the four people looking at him still remained the same.

Seo-ryang’s expression, who was looking at them while snorting, became slightly awkward.

“Anyway, you caught it, right? Well then, that’s okay. Is that right, Wonju?”

He looked at Xiao Yanshen. Soyeonsim slowly turned her head.

“Um… Ah! Above! You know because you are crazy. As you can see, I am by no means crazy. It’s completely different from you. yes?”

He looked at Wei Honglian. Wei Hongryun snorted.

“That’s right! Oh yeah. Dongpil will understand me….”

When he saw Ma Dongpil, his face turned cruel. He tried to understand Confucius somehow, but it didn’t seem to work, and his face was distorted in a strange way.

“What on earth did you say I did wrong?!” why? Is it because you treated that bastard so cruelly? Is that why you laugh while beating him? “Why on earth are they looking at me like that?!”

“Three Confucius.”

“why!”

Gogu pointed his finger at Ji Yeong-hyeon. Ji Young-hyeon, who had fallen, was tightly bound with iron chains made of gold and metal.

“Look at that guy’s face.”

“What a face!”

“….”

“…It’s a little damaged, but it’s still recognizable.”

Gogu sighed.

Wei Hongryeon, with her arms crossed, exaggeratedly imitated Seo Liang’s voice.

“We have to prepare for the unexpected, so don’t ever hurt her.

If something goes wrong, they become the head of the Demon Sword family and become enemies. Especially, you, the Great Lord, be careful. “Don’t just throw that guy’s arm away because you’re excited.”

“….”

“I see. My arm didn’t fly off. “Even though my face was a mess.”

“No, you know this because you’ve dealt with it in person, right? That bastard is a monster. “You said there was no other way to subdue it?”

“Yes, yes, I guess so.”

“Do it in moderation?”

“why? Take care of the patient? Look at it. “Try making a face just like that guy.”

“….”

“what? What do you get from this idiot? “I can’t say a word about how hard it was for the person who made a mess of me because I came late.”

Off.

I feel like I want to hit him in the back of the head, but I can’t help it because I have committed a sin. Because what Hongryeon Wei said is not wrong.

Xiliang scratched his head.

“It’s already happened, so what can we do?”

This is an extremely shameless statement. Even if everyone else was okay, Seo-ryang shouldn’t have said that.

So Yeon-sim, who was looking at him with accusatory eyes, sighed.

“What Confucius said is not wrong either. “I don’t think there’s any need to argue about the past when we don’t have time.”

“That’s what I’m saying.”

“….”

“…I’ll keep my mouth shut.”

“Yes, please just give me a moment.”

Xiliang kept his mouth shut like a clam. It was because he saw a cold expression on So Yeon-sim’s face as she looked at him with a smile.

“What will the head of the family do?”

“I’m sorry, but you should ask the Three Dukes rather than me. “The person who set up this plan in the first place was the Three Dukes.”

“Anyway, the head of the family also accepted it. “It’s not like he did it because he had some kind of method.”

“There was no room or anything and they didn’t accept it.”

“….”

“He was so confident. Of course, in the worst case scenario, I said I would step in and solve the problem myself.”

A feeling of despair was evident in So Yeon-sim’s expression.

“Is that true? So, are you saying that you made Ji Young-hyeon like that just out of boredom and without any countermeasures?”

“Why are you asking me that? “It was the Three Dukes who created that situation.”

Everyone’s eyes were once again focused on Seo-ryang.

Seoryang, who was scratching the ground with a rock and muttering to himself, cleared his throat.

“Confucius?”

“…Please speak.”

“There must be a way, right?”

“Of course there is.”

So Yeonsim’s face relaxed. Well, even though he has such a wrinkled appearance now, Seoliang is the Three Princes of Protestantism.

And she recognized Seo-ryang as a great person.

“How can I gather evidence then?”

“What are you talking about?”

“…?”

“What do you mean evidence?”

So Yeonsim frowned.

“I have no time for jokes, Confucius.”

“It’s no joke. “What kind of evidence are you talking about?”

“This is Ji Young-hyeon. “We need to find actual evidence that that guy is the culprit.”

Seo-ryang gave a bewildered expression. It looked so amazing that everyone had a look of puzzlement on their faces.

“That guy is the criminal? “How do you know that?”

“…yes?”

“This is definitely the guy who attacked us during the day. “The power felt in this sword’s energy was the same as the power remaining in the blade of grass.”

“…?”

“But I thought this guy was the criminal and never caught him. “Didn’t the Head of Criminal Law say that the culprit was the eldest son?”

…What kind of bullshit is this?

Gogu’s eyes hardened coldly.

“It was the Three Dukes who told Ma Dong-pil to lure this guy. And just as the Three Dukes said, this guy showed up proudly.”

“so?”

“So? “Wasn’t the reason you lured him in because you thought this guy was a criminal?”

“I never once thought or said that this guy was the culprit.”

Everyone opened their mouths.

“Now that I think about it…”

Looking back on our last conversation, it was definitely like that. He said he was using Ma Dong-pil as bait to catch this guy, but he never said that this guy was the criminal.

Xu Liang chuckled.

“Why did I say I was going to catch this guy? I said I was going to catch this guy because I thought Ji Kang-Hyeon could be conclusive evidence that he was the culprit.

But what kind of evidence are you looking for? “It happened the year before last. Is there any physical evidence left?”

Wei Hongryun said in a whisper.

“Then what do you mean don’t hurt me?”

“Are you kidding me? What if you crush a human who could serve as evidence? Would that have any evidential value? “It’s natural!”

Xiliang continued speaking hesitantly.

“Well… I ended up making the porridge bowl, but…” “

….”

“Anyway, I didn’t catch this guy thinking he was the culprit.”

“….”

“Oh, and just looking at it, it’s not this guy, right? How can a man who has lost his senses and gone crazy kills people and then disappears? “Is that possible based on common sense?”

Thanks to this, the four people, who had become ignorant, opened their mouths like crucian carp.

If you think about it, that’s true. I only saw an abnormal obsession with the sword and an incommunicable madness, but I couldn’t find any sexual desire even after I washed my eyes and looked for it.

“Besides, think about the martial arts this guy used.

Isn’t it just sword qigong that is performed using hand swords? I don’t even know basic white batting techniques.

What kind of guy would leave a corpse in such a mess? “I would have just cut it in half.”

The more I hear it, the more true it is.

Gogu smiled empty-handedly.

“Oh my… you can’t believe you’re the culprit just by looking at what’s right in front of you. “The head of the family is disqualified.”

Soyeonsim also shook her head.

“My eyes were blurry too. “I was caught up in the atmosphere and mistakenly thought that Ji Young-hyeon was the culprit.”

Seo-ryang looked at the two people in turn and scratched his head.

“I’m not particularly trying to comfort you, but would you like to get some heat out of your head?”

No matter who sees it, it is not comforting.

“I understand that you two want to catch the criminal. But we need to look at it more transparently. “The one going crazy is Nana Wei Daeju.”

It’s not wrong.

Seoliang’s insight was certainly great, but he did not have the political power of So Yeon-sim, who had been in charge of the Protestant religion for a long time, or the experience of Gogu, who had dealt with numerous criminals.

Soyeonsim sighed.

“What you said, Confucius, is right. “Thank you for enlightening me.”

“It was nothing.”

Gogu fired back.

“But that doesn’t eliminate the fact that the Three Dukes committed atrocities.”

“Anyway, you’re petty.”

“What was that anyway?”

“what?”

“Didn’t you say you had to stop by somewhere in a hurry?”

“Oh, that?”

Seoyang took out a neatly folded piece of paper from his arms. It was a medicine book.

“I brought it just in case.”

“So what is it?”

“He said this was a phantom herb?”

“Hwangeukcho? “Who is that guy again?”

“Hongwimun Gate.”

Everyone looked at Xu Liang in surprise.

“They said Jeoksaga will visit tomorrow morning. Then you won’t have time to talk to him alone.

So I went ahead and robbed them. “The guy who was wondering what the hell was going on gave it to me while trembling.”

He went to the person he had killed and robbed him of medicinal herbs. The audience clicked their tongues at this terrifying shamelessness.

Meanwhile, Wei Hongryeon tilted her head with an expression that said it was no problem at all.

“What is phantom herb?”

“It’s an herb with mild hallucinogenic properties.”

“A hallucination?”

“It has hallucinogenic properties, but surprisingly, it is not addictive. So I brought it.”

“Who are you going to use it for?”

Xiliang glanced at Ji Yonghyeon.

“He.”

“…Why would you use that on someone who’s already passed out? “Do you want me to have a good dream?”

“Who knew it would get to that point.”

“What were you going to do if you didn’t faint?”

“Regardless of the type of herb with hallucinogenic properties, it weakens the will. “Self-whitening agents and other things are actually made based on hallucinogenic ingredients.”

“Oh, interrogation?”

“I brought it just in case. But you can’t torture them, right?”

Wei Hongryun shot back bluntly.

“Thanks to you, we almost died. “You are great.”

“Make me proud? Should I kill you now? Just like that.”

“Tsk.”

“I wouldn’t have gone if I didn’t trust you two. Anyway, you endured it well, right? “Then it’s okay.”

Seoyang stood up, shaking his hands.

“Okay, now let’s move slowly.”

“Now wait a minute!”

So Yeonsim asked urgently.

“What are you going to do?”

“What should I do? “First of all, we have to find out why he became like that.”

“yes?”

“Isn’t it obvious? “I don’t even know that, so how can I judge whether that guy has utility as evidence?”

This is getting more and more surprising. So Yeon-sim never imagined that she would become this dumb.

“This isn’t that simple. Of course, the real culprit will deny the crime, and if so, he will have to present evidence that cannot be denied.

However, since the incident occurred two years ago, how can we find usable physical evidence right away? “Then what should we do?”

Xu Liang’s eyes flashed sharply.

“We have no choice but to put pressure on the criminal to spout the charges out of his mouth.”

* * *

The sight of Ji Woon-hoe sitting in the pavilion drinking tea looked very elegant.

“The tea drunk in Shingyo is definitely different.”

He strictly abstained from alcohol.

The prosecutor’s mind must be like the index of myeonggyeong. It was funny that a demon who had mastered magic would seek out Myeonggyeongsu, but he believed that at least a prosecutor should do that.

Of course, that wasn’t the only reason I didn’t drink. Because I thought that what constitutes a Myeongkyung Index varies from person to person.

He just hated himself for being distracted by alcohol. So I drank tea instead of alcohol.

At least when I drank tea, my dizzy thoughts and frustrated mind cleared up.

‘But…’

Ji Woonhoe frowned.

‘That’s strange.’

Is it because it’s the first day I entered school? Or is it because my son is going to become a disciple of the religious leader tomorrow?

Even though there was fragrant tea in the nice night breeze, my heart pounded. My mind couldn’t calm down at all.

The problem is that I don’t know why my heart is upset.

Ji Woonhoe sighed.

‘It is done. If it doesn’t get sorted out, just leave it as is…’

At that moment, his eyes flashed. Someone’s popularity was caught in his keen senses.

After a while.

“It’s tea, not alcohol.” “You are a man of upright living.”

“…Three Confucius.”

Ji Woonhoe stood up.

Seoliang walked to the pavilion. It was a step without any hesitation.

Ji Yun-hoe’s eyes wavered.

‘Is it because of the Three Confucius?’

Maybe so.

The martial arts performance of Seoliang during the day was quite shocking. If he actually fought, he would be sure to win, but he was not an opponent to be taken lightly.

That was the problem. Being an ‘opponent’.

What kind of genius in the world would achieve the same level as me at that age?

Moreover, if such a talented person is only third, how great must be the martial arts of the Archduke and Lee Gongja.

‘Sir, what kind of abilities are you…’

Probably Lee Cheon-sang’s help was great. Of course, even if that were the case, there was no reason to disparage Seoliang’s greatness.

“Can I go up?”

“Other than that, of course.”

So the two people sat across from each other at a table.

“I don’t think there are any empty teacups. “Have it done by those below you…”

“It’s okay. “Tea after a meal is enough.”

“If you do…”

“It seems like the head of the family doesn’t like being inconvenient, so I’ll tell you straight up why I came.”

Ji Yun-hoe’s eyes lit up.

“I will listen. “Please tell me.”

“We have arrested the criminal of your third son, Ji Yeong-hyeon.”

“…?!”

“I would like to do the same to my eldest son Ji Kang-hyeon, but what do you think?”

At that moment, a huge energy wave exploded from Ji Woon-hoe’s body.

Phew!

“What does that mean? Arresting the third recruit?”

“Just like that.”

“…this guy!”

“Do you want to know why?”

“What?”

“Then you too will have to join in on what we are doing.”

Xu Liang smiled coldly.

“I want to prove what you said during the day.”
