Infernal Hero

Chapter 435 A Big Case

Murder is a legend. Blood is the purest thing in the world. This society is dirty and ugly, so we need blood and legends to purify it.

A slender dagger circled around the body of the deceased like a wandering snake. In the next second, the deceased was dismembered and the dagger flew into the darkness. Other than the corpse, there were no clues left behind. Blood flowed all over the floor. Everyone in the conference room looked at this scene with heavy hearts.

The case was like a mountain, so heavy that these people couldn't lift their heads.

Professor Li Yunqing took off his flower mirror and looked at Gu Tianyou deeply. He was already gray-tempered, old, and in his seventies, he had a lot of things to do, and he was truly powerless. For example, his grandson, who was far away in the United States, refused to return to his country, his 48-year-old wife's eyes filled with dissatisfaction, and this case.

"My grandson, Li Bowen, regards you as the person he admires the most. Director Sun of the Religious Affairs Office invited you here from afar. Five years ago, when you were still in the Special Investigation Group, although I thought you were a very outstanding young man, I still decided to get you out of the Special Investigation Group. I have no regrets about this decision." Li Yunqing sighed and continued, "You're better than I thought, but at the same time, you're worse than I thought."

Gu Tianyou smiled bitterly and said, "Perhaps it's because you think things are too complicated. I'm actually still me. I've never forgotten that I'm a policeman, so I came."

Li Yunqing nodded, "It's good that you're here. I hope this unprecedented case can be solved in your hands!"

Gu Tianyou was introducing the origin of the rainbow sword to everyone. Such a thin short sword could easily cut tendons and break bones. Its strength and density had to reach an astonishing height before it could be achieved. Previously, everyone had speculated that this sword was not made of metal on Earth. Now that Gu Tianyou took out a dagger that was likely to be made of the same material as the pocket dagger, everyone became excited.

Short sword flowing rainbow, Longquan Sword Forging Grandmaster Chen Bolei used meteoric iron to forge sword embryos for fifteen years, exhausting his energy and dying. His disciple, Yang Chengkui, another master swordsman who had inherited the Dragon Spring Sword Forging Technique, had only forged this short sword after ten years of sharpening his sword. The sword fell into Li Jinglin's hands first, then into the hands of the Central Secret Service, Chen Lifu. It was famous for the martyrs who used the sword to assassinate the Japanese general, Big Horn Minister, on the plane.

We assume that this sword is made of the same material as the murder weapon. We are sure that there won't be too many meteorites left, and there shouldn't be many people who can turn this thing into a sword. Previously, I used my mobile phone to do some homework online. There are many contemporary Longquan Swordsmiths, but there is only one who has inherited Chen Bolei's ancient forging technique. This person is Sun Zhijian, 58 years old. He was paralyzed in bed three years ago and did not accept any apprentices in his life. It is very likely that this technique will be lost in his hands.

Gu Tianyou looked around the crowd. He continued, "Someone has brought the dagger pattern to check with Sun Zhijian, "Next, let me talk about some of my views on the modus operandi of this crime. Some of them may be very difficult to accept. If you have any questions, please do not question them on the spot, because I will not accept them. If I make anyone uncomfortable, you can listen to them as a joke and get up and leave. I will not mind."

Li Yunqing said, "We came to investigate this case under the framework of the Religious Affairs Office. Since the Religious Affairs Office can accept it, I can't think of anything supernatural that we can't accept. Please speak freely."

A short sword that killed people out of thin air. There were no traces left behind by the murderer, be it fingerprints or footprints, or even the slightest bit of fibrous hair. In this era where cameras were everywhere and privacy rights were not guaranteed, not a single clue was left behind. What was this murderer if he wasn't a ghost?
"First of all, I would like to make it clear to everyone that I am 100% sure that this murderer is a human being." Gu Tianyou stood up and walked to the arena. He pointed to the short sword on the screen and said, "Everyone, pay attention to this sword. Anyone who has read cultivation novels knows that there is a profession with astonishing combat strength called Sword Cultivator. His mouth is like a pill, and he can slash people thousands of miles away with his flying sword. The novelist's words are ridiculous but not without foundation."

Li Yunqing raised his hand and interrupted, "Are you suspecting that the murderer is a sword cultivator?"

Gu Tianyou said, "It's not suspicion, it's certainty." He turned to look at Sun Jingfei and said, "Do you still remember what I told you about King Ming's eyes?"

Sun Jingfei frowned and said, "I remember you said that one of your eyes was struck by someone's fist, and the other eye was shot by an arrow?"

Gu Tianyou nodded. "You and I both know the strength of Ming Wanjun at that time, "Even if the strongest 100 crossbow arrows were handed over to the strongest 100 archers in the world, standing ten meters away and firing at the same time, it would be impossible for them to injure half of his hair. However, the person who fired this arrow only used one arrow to succeed. That arrow was smaller than this short sword, and it was sprayed out of his mouth."

Li Yunqing's expression slightly changed as he said, "The arrow sprayed out of his mouth hurts?"

Gu Tianyou corrected, "The one who was injured was the strongest person in this world. A man who was truly capable of reviving the elegant demeanor of the ancient famous general, Ten Thousand Enemies."

"I remember you said that person's name was Yagiu Sekishiusai . What do you mean?" Sun Jing Fei said.

Gu Tianyou firmly denied, "I'm not sure who the culprit is, but I'm sure that this person is definitely not Yagiu Sekishiusai. Back then, he was heavily injured and relied on Li Tianyi to survive. Most of his kung fu was crippled. This culprit was able to control his dagger to kill people at least 20 meters away. He was much more capable than him."

Sun Jingfei said in a deep voice, "I remember Senior Hu mentioning a sword cultivator in his sermon that day."

"There used to be legends in the world of high technique, Some Sword Cultivator Warlocks were good at raising swords, This sword was actually cultivated by the courageous sword intent left behind by ancient and modern swordsmen in the world. He suddenly spat it out of his mouth when he was using it. Although this sword was invisible, But it has the power to kill souls and break courage, Refining to the highest realm could even slash a person's soul, "The reason is similar to the sound of the world of high technique . Yagiu Sekishiusai blinded one eye of Ming Wanjun and used a miraculous technique similar to this technique. The God Slaying Arrow was cultivated by him after several decades of blood. With the popularity of guns and cannons, fewer and fewer people were carrying the sword qi in their hearts, and fewer and fewer people were truly cultivating the sword qi."

Gu Tianyou nodded and said, "That's what Hu Rumeng said at that time. Note that he said less and less at that time, not nothing."

Sun Jingfei said, "I've thought about this before, but I always feel that it's impossible." Pausing for a moment, "you and I are insider, There are roughly two ways to control objects in the air, one is external force, He borrowed the power of the Shadow Spirit to control some small objects, The second is spiritual force, a spellcaster must have extraordinary talent, His own divine soul dao corresponded perfectly to a certain substance, "Only then would it be possible to control this substance. The volume, distance, and manner of movement of the object that could be controlled were all related to the size of the person's ability. To be able to control a sword in such a manner that it was as if it was an arm's command, to be able to dismember a person into countless pieces, and even carve words on the concrete floor. This was already beyond the scope of space control."

Gu Tianyou said, "It's a sword cultivator, a Dao warrior who uses sword qi to refine sword courage. It's not the same as the bloodline talent of the eight western god races."

No one left. Although Gu Tianyou's words were too absurd and had already exceeded the scope of many people's understanding, considering the bizarre process of this case, Gu Tianyou's words seemed to be reasonable. After ruling out all possibilities, the remaining possibilities, however absurd, may be the only answer.



Li Yunqing couldn't help but raise his hand and say something. After obtaining permission, he said, "I don't have any intention of questioning. It's just that what you said just now is too unbelievable. For those of us who have handled routine cases for a lifetime, it's really too bizarre. It far exceeds our comprehension."

"I was in the United States on a special case, A Texas serial killer committed dozens of crimes, I mean, I can understand that some extraordinary phenomena are real, but I'm not sure I understand your conversation just now, so I need something to strengthen my confidence in you. "

Gu Tianyou waved his hand at the old professor and said, "Please sit down and talk first."

Li Yunqing subconsciously replied, but he suddenly realized that he couldn't move. He was completely unable to move even a pinky finger, and his entire body suddenly didn't listen to his commands. Gu Tianyou said, "Don't worry, it's just a small trick. There's a small problem with the soul that dominates all movements in your body, so you can't move." With that, Li Yunqing waved his hand and regained his mobility. He looked at Gu Tianyou in surprise, "How did you do it? Is this a special ability?"

Gu Tianyou shook his head and said, "This is a technique, It's not a skill with extraordinary innate talent, "It's an objective ability that exists in the natural world of the universe. Everyone can possess it after some arduous training. Of course, the process will be somewhat difficult or even dangerous. We all know that there is a theory of souls in the field of Oriental Life Sciences. My ability is aimed at the soul that dominates your movements and behaviors."

Seeing is believing, Li Yunqing can finally confirm one thing through his personal experience. There are things in some corners of this world that he can't understand completely. It is not the mystery of the event itself that makes it unbelievable, but our own ignorance. Li Yunqing's approval made the other members of the Special Investigation Group feel relieved, and some of the people who were doubtful swallowed the words that had come to their mouths.

"Individual differences exist in this world," Gu Tianyou continued. "There are different talents between people. Some people are naturally afraid of dogs and approach cats, while others are the opposite. Some people can see things, some are born with infinite divine power, and there are also great differences between eastern and western races."

These are fairly common phenomena, but they are illustrative and easily recognized and understood by everyone present.

"I've been in contact with life scientists in North America for the past few years. They have long taken meridians and souls as subjects of research and experimentation. They have applied the results to medicine, gene biology, and even the military by studying individuals with extraordinary abilities," Gu added.

"In their eyes, the soul is the most inconceivable of all the secrets of the human body. Their research proves that each person's soul has its own uniqueness, which determines the innate characteristics of a person." Gu Tianyou said, "I think sword xiu has a lot to do with talent, "This murderer must be a genius with extremely high talent for sword cultivation. Combined with past experience, I think the person we are looking for is generally like this. He is a lonely, even difficult person to get along with. He is quiet, stubborn, cynical, and has a strong temper. He can often come into contact with swords in his surroundings."

The venue fell into a silent silence. Everyone was wondering where there was such a person. Old Guan suddenly raised his head and said, "I remember a place that is suspicious." Sun Jingfei immediately asked, "Where?" Old Guan said in an uncertain tone, "There is a Saber and Sword Town in the north of Dihua City. There are many small workshops in that place. They specialize in making a very sharp saber and sword made of bearing steel. As a typical local specialty product, it was once well-sold throughout the country."

Gu Tianyou said, "Apart from making swords and blades, what else is suspicious?"

Old Guan said, That's why we've been focusing on the conflict between the police and the people, Something very sensational happened in Saber and Sword Town about a year ago, when the city management clashed with the townsfolk, The police were ordered to stop at the scene, As a result, police guns were accidentally fired during the conflict, "A woman was killed on the spot. Because of this woman, the entire town ran to Jundong City to cause trouble. At that time, this matter was very popular, but in the end, it was not settled. Therefore, the people in that town have always had great resentment towards the East Police. We suspected that someone there had designed an exquisite killing mechanism to commit a series of crimes."

Gu Tianyou narrowed his eyes and continued to ask, "Have you ever investigated any suspicious people in the town?"

Li Yunqing took over the conversation with a bad expression and said angrily, "Do you still need to investigate?" Anyone in the town who lodges a complaint in Di Hua City, They're all in custody, As soon as we talk about getting into town, "They almost stabbed us with their knives. Even so, the Special Investigation Team has done all the investigations they need to do. This town has a very small population. Those who have the potential to commit crimes have either left the country or been arrested in the Brigade East Detention Center. My suggestion is to go there to conduct an investigation. It would be best to release those who have been captured for no reason."

The Special Investigation Team is a very interesting department. Its authority is very large, but it does not have a management function. At most, it can only bring up the case. If the case requires it, please ask the relevant local departments to cooperate. However, the task force had no control over what kind of cooperation the local authorities could provide, or how they should cooperate. Things in Saber and Sword Town sounded fishy, so the local public security organs had always been reluctant to cooperate with the special investigation team. This made Li Yunqing very angry.

Gu Tianyou thought for a moment and then asked, "You said that the residents of the town went to the city to complain about a woman. What happened to this woman?"
