It was useless to keep this person.
Even if he was caught and confronted in front of the real murderer, the real murderer would deny it.
There was no physical evidence, no proof.
It was impossible to bring down a Jinyiwei above the general flag with the testimony of a local ruffian.
The mastermind had already planned everything out when he had found Wang Ergou and Li Sanzhuang to kill them.
Regardless of whether the assassination succeeded or not, he would not be implicated.
"It really is the Jinyiwei!"
Xiao Wuji narrowed his eyes. His gaze was sharp, and killing intent surged in his heart.
He had just taken over as the chief flag officer today, and the assassination came at night.
The mastermind simply did not want to wait a moment.
Thinking back to the people he saw at the Discipline Department today, it was possible that the person behind the scenes was among them.
"Ding, the host has triggered a mission: Revenge.”
"If people don't offend me, I won't offend them.”
"Detected that a mastermind is plotting to assassinate the host. Host, please find and kill the mastermind.”
" Mission Reward: Maximum level Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms.”
"Good timing."
Seeing the system issue the mission, Xiao Wuji did not hate the mastermind as much.
In his opinion, the mastermind behind the scenes was the courier who sent him the divine technique.
"We already know the characteristics of the murderer. We'll go to the Discipline Department tomorrow to investigate.”
"When the time comes, let's see who dies first!"
The characteristics of the murderer's hand were very obvious. As long as Xiao Wuji paid close attention, it was not difficult to find it.
Grabbing the corpse on the ground, Xiao Wuji walked out of the secret chamber and jumped onto the roof.
After that, he leaped a few times and arrived on the street a few hundred meters away.
Taking advantage of the fact that there was no one around, Xiao Wuji left the corpse and left.
The entire process of dumping the body did not make any sound.
This was a qinggong he learned from his father. Flying Above Grass was a common qinggong.
Most of the low-level martial artists in Jianghu knew this lightness skill. It was already the limit for them to be able to practice it to the extent that they could sweep across ten feet at a time.
However, when Xiao Wuji used Verdure Glide, his body was like a ghost, as fast as the wind.
He could move fifty to sixty feet across the sky with a single leap. His movement technique was even more advanced than many Lightness Skill experts in Jianghu.
To be able to do this, he had to rely on his deep internal strength.
Xiao Wuji concealed himself all the way back home. He cleaned up all traces and fell asleep.
When she woke up, it was already the next morning.
After washing up, Xiao Wuji went to the Discipline Office.
He went to the sesame seed cake stall and bought three large sesame seed cakes from Old Man Li.
Just as he had expected, the body he had thrown away last night had been found.
At the corner of the street, a few bailiffs from the yamen were examining the corpse and the crime scene. They were surrounded by a group of onlookers.
Old Man Li said with some fear," The world is really too chaotic. Last night, some murderer came from somewhere and killed the two people. They died miserably."”
"I heard that there was a person whose bones were shattered and his body was as soft as tofu.”
"Sigh, what a sin."
Old Man Li sighed as he instructed," Wuji, you're also an Embroidered Uniform Guard now. You have to be careful in the future."”
"Don't rush forward when you're in trouble. Protecting your life is more important.”
Xiao Wuji nodded with a smile while eating the sesame seed cake." Don't worry, Old Man Li. I value my life very much. If I encounter danger, I will definitely be the first to escape."”
"In terms of escaping, no one is better than me.”
Xiao Wuji walked to the corner of the street while eating the sesame seed cake. He also went up to watch and then quietly left.
The bystanders and constables had all discovered Xiao Wuji, but no one suspected that Xiao Wuji was the murderer.
The onlookers were all neighbors. Most of them had watched Xiao Wuji grow up. They did not suspect that it was because they knew Xiao Wuji's character.
The constable did not suspect him because Xiao Wuji was a Jinyiwei.
When the Embroidered Uniform Guards killed someone, even if it was the murderer, they did not dare to ask or investigate.
Moreover, the corpse was wearing a night suit. One look and one could tell that it was not a good person.
If a cat burglar like him died, then so be it. The yamen would not investigate further.
Later, he would cover it with a straw mat and throw it into the mass grave. Then, this case would be closed.
In a feudal dynasty, human lives were like weeds.
Xiao Wuji leisurely ate the sesame seed cake and came to the Zhenfu Department. He bumped into Yang Dali.
"Uncle Yang, have you had breakfast?"
Xiao Wuji greeted him with a smile and handed him a shaobing.
Yang Dali waved his hand to block the pancake and said in a solemn tone,""There's a mission today. Hide later and don't stand out.”
After saying this in a hurry, Yang Dali stopped talking.
Xiao Wuji's expression froze as he opened his mouth and swallowed the pancake.
Not only was he not flustered, he was even a little excited.
Xiao Wuji had already vaguely guessed what the mission today was.
In the last operation to encircle and suppress the Black Tiger Bastion, although the bandits of the Black Tiger Bastion were killed, the leader of the Black Tiger Bastion, Liu Meng, escaped and even killed a centurion of the Embroidered Uniform Guards.
Of course, the Discipline Department couldn't take it anymore. If they didn't kill Liu Meng, the operation to encircle the Black Tiger Gang wouldn't be complete.
Liu Meng had to die, whether it was for exterminating the bandits or for revenge.
Xiao Wuji had heard from Yang Dali that the Embroidered Uniform Guards had been searching for Liu Meng's hiding place for the past few days.
It seemed that Liu Meng had found it.
