"What did you say? Say it again!"
As expected of everyone present, Xiu Mu Xianghe's face was ashen. His tone became intense, and his eyes were as cold and sharp as knives, as if he wanted to poke a hole in Guan Yue's body.
But before that…
He noticed the three familiar faces beside Guan Yue and immediately understood everything.
"It's you guys, right? You were the ones who reported me to the stealth maneuver!”
"Don't say that. As colleagues, we have made this decision with a heavy heart.”
"You have always been merciless against your enemies. You can definitely understand our painstaking efforts.”
"This is all for the sake of the order of Xueling Ting. You should confess your guilt honestly, Sir Sound River. We will inherit your will and continue to move forward.”
The three of them pretended to wipe their tears, sigh, and even swear an oath. Xiu Mu Xianghe was so angry that his entire body was trembling, and his teeth were about to shatter.
"Sound River!"
Rotten Wooden Boat shouted.
"Don't be agitated. It's just a question. Whether there's a problem or not depends on your performance. Don't disappoint me and Silver Bell…Someone is still waiting for you.”
“……”
Xiu Mu Xiang He was silent for a while before he let out a long breath. Not only was his anger gone, but even his inner anger had disappeared. He looked much more dispirited.
"Can we ask questions now?"
Guan Yue's expression was calm, as if she did not notice his reaction just now.
Xiu Mu Xiang He slowly nodded.
"How is your relationship with your colleagues? I'm talking about your entire squad and army.”
"…I only interact with people I can talk to. The ones closest to me are my subordinates.”
"That is to say, other than your subordinates, you have a subjective resistance to contact with colleagues with different ideals. Can I understand it that way?”
"…Sure."
Xiu Mu Xianghe hesitated for a moment before nodding. However, he noticed from the corner of his eye that Xiu Mu Pingzhou's expression had changed slightly, and the three culprits who had framed him had smug expressions. He could not help but feel his heart thump, knowing that he had said something wrong.
But…what did he say wrong?
Seeing Guan Yue take out a small notebook and record something, she was anxious and confused, not knowing what to do.
"The second question, do you have any enemies?”
"No, everything I did was for the sake of Hongling Ting. Whether it was a mission or a normal day, if someone hated me, it was their business. I would never take the initiative to make enemies with others.”
Xiu Mu Xiang He placed his hand on his chest and gave a sonorous and forceful answer as if he was swearing an oath.
This time, he observed everyone's expressions again and found that it was the opposite of before. Xiu Mu Ping Zhou nodded slightly, and the three reporters grinned as if they were sneering and mocking.
However, it didn't matter what they did. The person who made the decision was Guan Yue.
However, no matter how much he observed, he could not tell what this youth was thinking.
This made him sigh in admiration.
" The third question…"
Guan Yue wrote in her notebook and asked without looking up,
"If the Grim Reaper wanted to kill you, what would you do without knowing the reason?”
" Counterattack. Subdue if you can, and kill if you can't. Those who can attack me are definitely not ordinary people. Even if they leave behind a corpse, I can't let such a living clue slip away from my eyes.”
Xiu Mu Xiang He seemed to have gotten used to the question, and his answers became more natural.
Fortunately, he remembered that this was a different kind of interrogation.
Therefore, he even explained the reason for his actions.
Sometimes, this was the only explanation for his cruelty and decisiveness.
However, Guan Yue's fourth question made Xiu Mu Xianghe's expression freeze. It was not only him, but the three informants were the same.
"If the three informants beside me happened to appear when you killed your opponent and accused you of killing your colleagues and wanted to detain you, would you choose to surrender or counterattack?”
"This…"
Xiu Mu Xiang He looked at Xiu Mu Xiao Zhou helplessly. The latter frowned. Clearly, he was stumped by this question.
"You'd better answer quickly, or else I'll have reason to doubt the authenticity of your words. This means that you'll lose the right to prove yourself.”
Guan Yue reminded him.
"I……will surrender and wait for the verdict. I believe that Room 46 will give me justice.”
Xiu Mu Xiang He gritted his teeth.
"Then what if the 46th unit decides that you killed your colleague by mistake, confiscate your sword, and imprison you for a hundred years?”
Guan Yue continued to ask the next second after he answered.
Xiu Mu Xianghe's pupils constricted, and a ruthless expression flashed across his face. He immediately stood up from the ground.
"What a joke…Who would be willing to accept such a ridiculous punishment? Even if I accidentally killed him, he was the one who came to kill me first. Can't I resist? I have to be killed by him obediently?"
"I can see that your ultimate purpose of questioning me is to force me to resist so that you can prove that I am a great threat to Xuelingting. You are in cahoots with the three bastards over there!”
"Presumptuous! How dare you be disrespectful to Lord Guan Yue!"
"The responsibility of the gatekeeper team was given to you by Xueling Ting. Do you want to go against the order of the entire Xueling Ting?”
"Xiu Mu Xiang He, you've finally revealed your true colors!”
The three informants severely reprimanded Xiu Mu Sound River, and even Xiu Mu Light Boat could not stop them in time. The scene became chaotic for a moment, and there were even signs of losing control and going berserk.
"What qualifications do you have to tell me what to do? Even if you want to judge me, you'll have to be the head captain or Lady Silver Bell. I don't have time to waste with you three good-for-nothings and a young boy.”
Xiu Mu Xiang He snorted coldly and prepared to leave.
"Wait, I haven't finished my question.”
Guan Yue suddenly said.
"Questions?"
Xiu Mu Xiang He slowly turned around and looked down at Guan Yue.
"It just so happens that after being asked by you for so long, I also want to ask you a question…Everyone says that your second division has an incredible rookie. He has the strength of a captain after graduating a year ago, but other than strength, is his brain good?”
“？！”
Everyone was shocked.
Even the informant was frightened by his arrogant words, and he was immediately overjoyed. This time, he had offended him to death.
There was no need for them to add fuel to the fire.
Guan Yue would take the initiative to target Xiu Mu Xiang He.
"Alright, then I'll ask you a question in another way and also answer you at the same time.”
Guan Yue nodded, not revealing the anger of being provoked.
He propped himself up on the ground and reached out his right hand to Xiu Mu Xiang He.
"What?"
Xiu Mu Xianghe revealed a vigilant expression.
"Let's shake hands. Why? Didn't you dislike my question? Shaking hands is much simpler and more straightforward than communicating. Compared to words, you, who are not good at words, are more inclined to use practical actions to explain your thoughts to others, right?”
Guan Yue said with a smile.
“……”
Hearing the second half of the sentence, Xiu Mu Xiang He's face darkened and he glanced at Guan Yue's outstretched hand.
There were no signs of him using Ghost Dao or activating the ability of Dragon Slaying Saber.
…No, even if there was, there was no reason to be afraid.
The corners of his mouth parted, and he shook her hand without saying anything.
