Daily life of slaying demons in the government

Chapter 162 That’s not right!

Qiu Minghua's arrival was within Yang Qian's expectations.

After all, Sandao City had "further evidence" that would determine whether Qiu Minghua's identity would be exposed. Naturally, they needed to come over to check. It was not surprising that they even came over to wait for an opportunity to kill and silence him.

That's why Yang Qian had kept a secret before, saying that the survivor was a strong man. He didn't mention Wang Xiang because he was worried about this. Now he had to do the same thing, which was to test further and let Qiu Minghua relax his vigilance.

Seeing the kind Qiu Minghua, Yang Qian thought to himself: What a bastard, he’s really good at pretending!

Compared to the rude and arrogant Zhang Yue, Qiu Minghua was just like the immortal master in the legend, clean and polite, with an otherworldly look.

"What are you dawdling for, kid? If you don't hurry up, I'll make you suffer!" Zhang Yue snorted coldly, dissatisfied with Yang Qian's silence.

"Senior Brother Zhang, there's no need to talk like that." Qiu Minghua frowned, obviously displeased with Zhang Yue's arrogance.

"Junior sister, you don't know that these detectives love to take advantage of others. There is no need to be polite to them."

"Brother, it seems that you didn't listen to the teachings of the uncle." Qiu Minghua sighed, shook her head, and ignored Zhang Yue. Instead, she took a few steps forward, meaning to tell Yang Qian to just talk to her and ignore Zhang Yue.

"Yang Qian is already very grateful to the two immortal masters for coming over so quickly. Why would he dawdle? It's because the physical evidence is not in my hands. Please wait a moment. I will go get it right away."

Yang Qian's idea was that once he left, it would be possible for the news of the Immortal Master's coming to be spread. If the other party had concerns, they would certainly stop him. This meant that the two were in cahoots.

On the contrary, tonight would be the most favorable outcome for Yang Qian, which would mean that Qiu Minghua was the only murderer among the two. She would be restrained by Zhang Yue, and Yang Qian would then have room to maneuver.

What gave Yang Qian the confidence to deal with and test the two disciples from the major sects of the Immortal Alliance?

Yang Qian's confidence lies in his belief in his own perception. He had previously felt that Qiu Minghua and Zhang Yue's strength was similar to that of Feng and Yu, the outer sect stewards of the Five Thunders Palace. He felt that with his current means, it was not impossible to kill the other party by surprise!
Moreover, his sword power was greatly improved at this time, "Evil Wind" was perfected, and he was acting unintentionally. Yang Qian felt that if he was not outnumbered, there was a great possibility that he could win by using a surprise move.

However, the situation began to deviate from Yang Qian's deduction from here.

"In that case, I'll have to trouble Captain Yang. My brother and I don't want to alert other people in Sandao City this time. There are too many etiquettes and too much trouble, so we won't go with Captain Yang. Please go quickly and come back soon."

what?
Yang Qian was a little dumbfounded when he heard Qiu Minghua's words. In his deduction, even if Qiu Minghua was restrained by Zhang Yue, she would ask to go with Yang Qian to collect the physical evidence, so that she could check it alone first. If her identity could be exposed, then she would be killed or the evidence would be destroyed.

If the evidence is insufficient to expose the crime or is insignificant, Qiu Minghua can continue to hide and wait and see.

Once Qiu Minghua caught up, it meant that Yang Qian would also have the opportunity to be alone with him. He could also find an opportunity to strike when he was trying to identify the "evidence" and take him down in one fell swoop.

As for the consequences, Yang Qian was certain that Piaomiao Peak, which claimed to "uphold the righteousness of the world", would not dare to speak for an evil cultivator who was proven to have massacred a village in front of a group of constables on duty in the police station!

This is also the reason why Yang Qian had to repeatedly test whether the other two people from Piaomiao Peak were Qiu Minghua's accomplices.

As long as they were not all accomplices, Yang Qian was sure that even if he killed Qiu Minghua, Piaomiao Peak would not dare to do anything to him immediately. Keeping this a secret was the most important thing. Even if Qiu Minghua died, it might be a good thing for Piaomiao Peak.

The final result will only be that Qiu Minghua will be killed, but the news will be suppressed, helping Piao Miao Peak to save face and not make it public.

In the future, even if Piaomiao Peak really takes its anger out on Yang Qian, they will not touch him in the short term. As long as they give him three to five years, Yang Qian feels that by then he may not be the small figure who can be easily manipulated like he is now.

In this way, even if there is no way to settle the score with Piaomiao Peak for the crooked sect, at least revenge has been avenged for the hundreds of people who died in Wangzhuang.

But Yang Qian had made so many calculations, but in the end, he was wrong from the very beginning!
Wanwan never thought that Qiu Minghua would choose not to go with him and let Yang Qian go to collect the evidence by himself?

Why? Was Qiu Minghua so sure that he would not miss any evidence that would expose his identity?

So confident? Even unreasonably confident!
But no matter how confused Yang Qian was, he couldn't just stand there and do nothing. After Qiu Minghua finished speaking, he bowed and left the room.

Then he went to the police station and took a look around, chatted briefly with a few familiar night constables, and hinted that someone from the Immortal Sect was looking for him.

And they were two of the three Immortal Masters from Piaomiao Peak who had just come. He knew that once this news got out, it would soon reach Cui Mingsheng's ears, and even the government offices and garrison high-ranking officials of the Three Dao City would know about it.

At this point, things were out of Yang Qian's control. His plan was to stabilize Qiu Minghua first. Since it was now certain that Qiu Minghua committed the crime alone, he could try to report the matter to Lu Chunfeng. In that case, although he could not kill the murderer himself, there was a high probability that Qiu Minghua would not survive.

So after Yang Qian went around, he took back a piece of cloth that he had just made. He burned it with candlelight. He just dealt with it.

"My two immortal masters, this is it. It was found beside a cold pond more than ten miles north of Wangzhuang. In addition to this piece of cloth, the water in the cold pond has become extremely fishy and smelly." Yang Qian said while secretly observing Qiu Minghua's expression.

Strangely enough, Qiu Minghua took the fake piece of cloth very calmly and examined it carefully, with no sign of anything wrong on his face from beginning to end.

"What nonsense! Is this the evidence you found? Nothing else? I warn you, Yang Qian, if you make up stories and treat the Immortal Sect as a joke, you will die miserably!"

On the contrary, Zhang Yue became furious after just glancing at the "evidence" that Yang Qian brought out, and looked like he was going to tear Yang Qian apart immediately.

"Brother Zhang! Are you too excited?" Qiu Minghua took a step forward and stood between Yang Qian and Zhang Yue, his intention to protect them was obvious. But it seemed that he couldn't do anything to Zhang Yue, that was all.

Zhang Yue snorted and said nothing more.

After a while, Qiu Minghua put down the piece of cloth in his hand and shook his head, saying, "We can't tell anything about this thing. The patterns on it look like they were drawn randomly. It's really hard to understand. But we should go take a look at Lengtan. Maybe we can find something else?"

At this moment, Zhang Yue suddenly smiled and said, "Junior sister is right, we should go over there and take a look."

After saying that, he turned around and said to Yang Qian, "There is no time to lose. You lead the way!"
