Episode 102 One who looks into the heart of God (2)ââ¦.â
ââ¦.â
ââ¦.â
ââ¦Kahahahahah! âWhy are you guys looking at me like that?â
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-ryangâs expression, who was looking at them while snorting, became slightly awkward.
âAnyway, you caught it, right? Well then, thatâs okay. Is that right, Wonju?â
He looked at Xiao Yanshen. Soyeonsim slowly turned her head.
âUm⦠Ah! Above! You know because you are crazy. As you can see, I am by no means crazy. Itâs completely different from you. yes?â
He looked at Wei Honglian. Wei Hongryun snorted.
âThatâs right! Oh yeah. Dongpil will understand meâ¦.â
When he saw Ma Dongpil, his face turned cruel. He tried to understand Confucius somehow, but it didnât seem to work, and his face was distorted in a strange way.
âWhat on earth did you say I did wrong?!â why? Is it because you treated that bastard so cruelly? Is that why you laugh while beating him? âWhy on earth are they looking at me like that?!â
âThree Confucius.â
âwhy!â
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.
âLook at that guyâs face.â
âWhat a face!â
ââ¦.â
ââ¦Itâs a little damaged, but itâs still recognizable.â
Gogu sighed.
Wei Hongryeon, with her arms crossed, exaggeratedly imitated Seo Liangâs voice.
âWe have to prepare for the unexpected, so donât 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. âDonât just throw that guyâs arm away because youâre excited.â
ââ¦.â
âI see. My arm didnât fly off. âEven though my face was a mess.â
âNo, you know this because youâve dealt with it in person, right? That bastard is a monster. âYou said there was no other way to subdue it?â
âYes, yes, I guess so.â
âDo it in moderation?â
âwhy? Take care of the patient? Look at it. âTry making a face just like that guy.â
ââ¦.â
âwhat? What do you get from this idiot? âI canât say a word about how hard it was for the person who made a mess of me because I came late.â
Off.
I feel like I want to hit him in the back of the head, but I canât help it because I have committed a sin. Because what Hongryeon Wei said is not wrong.
Xiliang scratched his head.
âItâs already happened, so what can we do?â
This is an extremely shameless statement. Even if everyone else was okay, Seo-ryang shouldnât have said that.
So Yeon-sim, who was looking at him with accusatory eyes, sighed.
âWhat Confucius said is not wrong either. âI donât think thereâs any need to argue about the past when we donât have time.â
âThatâs what Iâm saying.â
ââ¦.â
ââ¦Iâll keep my mouth shut.â
âYes, please just give me a moment.â
Xiliang kept his mouth shut like a clam. It was because he saw a cold expression on So Yeon-simâs face as she looked at him with a smile.
âWhat will the head of the family do?â
âIâm sorry, but you should ask the Three Dukes rather than me. âThe person who set up this plan in the first place was the Three Dukes.â
âAnyway, the head of the family also accepted it. âItâs not like he did it because he had some kind of method.â
âThere was no room or anything and they didnât accept it.â
ââ¦.â
âHe was so confident. Of course, in the worst case scenario, I said I would step in and solve the problem myself.â
A feeling of despair was evident in So Yeon-simâs expression.
âIs that true? So, are you saying that you made Ji Young-hyeon like that just out of boredom and without any countermeasures?â
âWhy are you asking me that? âIt was the Three Dukes who created that situation.â
Everyoneâs eyes were once again focused on Seo-ryang.
Seoryang, who was scratching the ground with a rock and muttering to himself, cleared his throat.
âConfucius?â
ââ¦Please speak.â
âThere must be a way, right?â
âOf course there is.â SÑarch* The nôᴠel Fire.nÑt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
So Yeonsimâs 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.
âHow can I gather evidence then?â
âWhat are you talking about?â
ââ¦?â
âWhat do you mean evidence?â
So Yeonsim frowned.
âI have no time for jokes, Confucius.â
âItâs no joke. âWhat kind of evidence are you talking about?â
âThis is Ji Young-hyeon. âWe need to find actual evidence that that guy is the culprit.â
Seo-ryang gave a bewildered expression. It looked so amazing that everyone had a look of puzzlement on their faces.
âThat guy is the criminal? âHow do you know that?â
ââ¦yes?â
âThis is definitely the guy who attacked us during the day. âThe power felt in this swordâs energy was the same as the power remaining in the blade of grass.â
ââ¦?â
âBut I thought this guy was the criminal and never caught him. âDidnât the Head of Criminal Law say that the culprit was the eldest son?â
â¦What kind of bullshit is this?
Goguâs eyes hardened coldly.
âIt 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.â
âso?â
âSo? âWasnât the reason you lured him in because you thought this guy was a criminal?â
âI never once thought or said that this guy was the culprit.â
Everyone opened their mouths.
âNow that I think about itâ¦â
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.
âWhy 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? âIt happened the year before last. Is there any physical evidence left?â
Wei Hongryun said in a whisper.
âThen what do you mean donât hurt me?â
âAre you kidding me? What if you crush a human who could serve as evidence? Would that have any evidential value? âItâs natural!â
Xiliang continued speaking hesitantly.
âWell⦠I ended up making the porridge bowl, butâ¦â â
â¦.â
âAnyway, I didnât catch this guy thinking he was the culprit.â
ââ¦.â
âOh, and just looking at it, itâs not this guy, right? How can a man who has lost his senses and gone crazy kills people and then disappears? âIs that possible based on common sense?â
Thanks to this, the four people, who had become ignorant, opened their mouths like crucian carp.
If you think about it, thatâs true. I only saw an abnormal obsession with the sword and an incommunicable madness, but I couldnât find any sexual desire even after I washed my eyes and looked for it.
âBesides, think about the martial arts this guy used.
Isnât it just sword qigong that is performed using hand swords? I donât even know basic white batting techniques.
What kind of guy would leave a corpse in such a mess? âI would have just cut it in half.â
The more I hear it, the more true it is.
Gogu smiled empty-handedly.
âOh my⦠you canât believe youâre the culprit just by looking at whatâs right in front of you. âThe head of the family is disqualified.â
Soyeonsim also shook her head.
âMy eyes were blurry too. âI was caught up in the atmosphere and mistakenly thought that Ji Young-hyeon was the culprit.â
Seo-ryang looked at the two people in turn and scratched his head.
âIâm not particularly trying to comfort you, but would you like to get some heat out of your head?â
No matter who sees it, it is not comforting.
âI understand that you two want to catch the criminal. But we need to look at it more transparently. âThe one going crazy is Nana Wei Daeju.â
Itâs not wrong.
Seoliangâs 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.
âWhat you said, Confucius, is right. âThank you for enlightening me.â
âIt was nothing.â
Gogu fired back.
âBut that doesnât eliminate the fact that the Three Dukes committed atrocities.â
âAnyway, youâre petty.â
âWhat was that anyway?â
âwhat?â
âDidnât you say you had to stop by somewhere in a hurry?â
âOh, that?â
Seoyang took out a neatly folded piece of paper from his arms. It was a medicine book.
âI brought it just in case.â
âSo what is it?â
âHe said this was a phantom herb?â
âHwangeukcho? âWho is that guy again?â
âHongwimun Gate.â
Everyone looked at Xu Liang in surprise.
âThey said Jeoksaga will visit tomorrow morning. Then you wonât have time to talk to him alone.
So I went ahead and robbed them. âThe guy who was wondering what the hell was going on gave it to me while trembling.â
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.
âWhat is phantom herb?â
âItâs an herb with mild hallucinogenic properties.â
âA hallucination?â
âIt has hallucinogenic properties, but surprisingly, it is not addictive. So I brought it.â
âWho are you going to use it for?â
Xiliang glanced at Ji Yonghyeon.
âHe.â
ââ¦Why would you use that on someone whoâs already passed out? âDo you want me to have a good dream?â
âWho knew it would get to that point.â
âWhat were you going to do if you didnât faint?â
âRegardless of the type of herb with hallucinogenic properties, it weakens the will. âSelf-whitening agents and other things are actually made based on hallucinogenic ingredients.â
âOh, interrogation?â
âI brought it just in case. But you canât torture them, right?â
Wei Hongryun shot back bluntly.
âThanks to you, we almost died. âYou are great.â
âMake me proud? Should I kill you now? Just like that.â
âTsk.â
âI wouldnât have gone if I didnât trust you two. Anyway, you endured it well, right? âThen itâs okay.â
Seoyang stood up, shaking his hands.
âOkay, now letâs move slowly.â
âNow wait a minute!â
So Yeonsim asked urgently.
âWhat are you going to do?â
âWhat should I do? âFirst of all, we have to find out why he became like that.â
âyes?â
âIsnât it obvious? âI donât even know that, so how can I judge whether that guy has utility as evidence?â
This is getting more and more surprising. So Yeon-sim never imagined that she would become this dumb.
âThis isnât 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? âThen what should we do?â
Xu Liangâs eyes flashed sharply.
âWe have no choice but to put pressure on the criminal to spout the charges out of his mouth.â
* * *
The sight of Ji Woon-hoe sitting in the pavilion drinking tea looked very elegant.
âThe tea drunk in Shingyo is definitely different.â
He strictly abstained from alcohol.
The prosecutorâs 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 wasnât the only reason I didnât 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.
âButâ¦â
Ji Woonhoe frowned.
âThatâs strange.â
Is it because itâs 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 couldnât calm down at all.
The problem is that I donât know why my heart is upset.
Ji Woonhoe sighed.
âIt is done. If it doesnât get sorted out, just leave it as isâ¦â
At that moment, his eyes flashed. Someoneâs popularity was caught in his keen senses.
After a while.
âItâs tea, not alcohol.â âYou are a man of upright living.â
ââ¦Three Confucius.â
Ji Woonhoe stood up.
Seoliang walked to the pavilion. It was a step without any hesitation.
Ji Yun-hoeâs eyes wavered.
âIs it because of the Three Confucius?â
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 âopponentâ.
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.
âSir, what kind of abilities are youâ¦â
Probably Lee Cheon-sangâs help was great. Of course, even if that were the case, there was no reason to disparage Seoliangâs greatness.
âCan I go up?â
âOther than that, of course.â
So the two people sat across from each other at a table.
âI donât think there are any empty teacups. âHave it done by those below youâ¦â
âItâs okay. âTea after a meal is enough.â
âIf you doâ¦â
âIt seems like the head of the family doesnât like being inconvenient, so Iâll tell you straight up why I came.â
Ji Yun-hoeâs eyes lit up.
âI will listen. âPlease tell me.â
âWe have arrested the criminal of your third son, Ji Yeong-hyeon.â
ââ¦?!â
âI would like to do the same to my eldest son Ji Kang-hyeon, but what do you think?â
At that moment, a huge energy wave exploded from Ji Woon-hoeâs body.
Phew!
âWhat does that mean? Arresting the third recruit?â
âJust like that.â
ââ¦this guy!â
âDo you want to know why?â
âWhat?â
âThen you too will have to join in on what we are doing.â
Xu Liang smiled coldly.
âI want to prove what you said during the day.â
