Chapter 131 Hidden Appetite
President Nitro and the twelve earthly branches have all arrived.
As soon as he landed, the venue was arranged to prepare for his interrogation.
As for Men Qi and others, they reported the mission process and content to the association as early as on the ship. They knew nothing about the deaths in Journey to the West and were excluded.
The key point is that he is still alone.
The coastal city here is still far away from the association's headquarters, so this time, the association's top management came here specially.
Even the president was alarmed.
The death of one of the twelve Earthly Branches is no small matter.
Three members of the twelve earthly branches plus Bisiji surrounded him and escorted him all the way to the door of a building.
No matter how good the relationship between Bisiji and Yun is, the relationship between the two is temporarily antagonistic until their guilt is cleared.
However, compared to the seriousness of Miloston and Kangzai, Bisiji seemed very relaxed. He kept chatting with Long on the way, mainly complaining and scolding. Based on her understanding of Long, there must be a hidden secret... Furthermore, if Long wanted to run away, it would be difficult for Gai Lu to survive alone.
"Yo, even you are here."
Standing at the door of the building was an old friend whom he hadn't seen for a long time.
Yungu.
We haven’t seen him for many years, still dressed in the same outfit.
His temperament is more calm, and his strength has grown tremendously compared to what he was in the Sky Arena.
However, no matter how much Yun Gu breaks through, his speed is still far behind his own. The longer time passes, the wider the gap will only become.
Yun Gu was still the same as before, he only liked to tuck one side of his shirt into his trousers and leave the other side exposed, looking nondescript.
If he could come, he must have received the news and was worried about Hao's situation.
Seeing the comfortable look on his face and waving to him in a familiar tone, Yun Gu secretly felt relieved, pushed up his glasses, and said with a hint: "Are you okay?"
"It's okay...don't worry."
Hagi walked past him and smiled.
"That's good."
Then, without saying anything, Yungu followed a few people upstairs.
As for the inquiry and trial process, Yungu cannot participate in it. He can only wait outside.
The four of them went to the conference room on the top floor.
Pushing the door open, everyone sitting in front of the round table came into view one after another.
His appearance instantly focused all attention.
"Oh, you're here too?"
Hazy was slightly surprised.
Gold Fulis…
"I'm just bored... Let's see what will happen to you, a sinner." Jin held his chin with one hand and tapped the table with the other hand, looking a little impatient.
Obviously, he didn't like this kind of gathering atmosphere and was a little uncomfortable with it.
"Then I'm afraid I'll disappoint you."
Hazy smiled.
"I didn't have any expectations."
Jin pouted.
"Hoho... Now everyone is here, please sit down." Nitro laughed heartily and waved his hands, as if today was not a trial, but a happy day for the whole family to gather together... Behavior and reality There are serious discrepancies.
"President!"
Yorkshire reminded angrily.
"Ahem...Okay, since Hagi is here, let's get started."
The old man spoke with a slightly serious expression.
At this time, Long Zheng stared at Pariston who was very close to him. The man crossed his hands on the table, raised his chin, and faced Long's gaze with a smile on his face.
This was the first time that Ou had looked at him since he joined the association.
The two sides just looked at each other for a moment.
Over there, the bean-faced man was already holding information and read out the contents of this mission, as well as the records of all members during the execution of the mission. Each person did what at what time, in very detail. There is also the vague report. The general content is consistent with other people's reports, but there is a blank in it.
Unsurprisingly, this blank time was what killed Journey to the West.
"According to what Gai Lu said, he has personally admitted that he killed Xiyou." After the bean-faced man finished speaking, Yorkshire stood up and said sternly.
Milton and Kang Zai also raised their hands and echoed, mentioning some of the words that Long had said on the way here.
"Yes, I killed him myself."
Hazy nodded.
"Then there's nothing to say. According to the association's rules, after internal processing, it will be handed over directly to the Ministry of Justice." Yorkshire stared at Hazy.
"Don't rush to convict him. According to the rules, if Xiyou attacked me first, it would be normal for me to kill him in self-defense, just to protect myself."
Hagi held out a finger.
"Where's the evidence?"
Yorkie pressed hard, "It's true that you killed Xiyou... but you said that Xiyou was hostile to you, but there is no evidence!"
"The person is dead anyway, you can evade and tamper with the truth at will."
Yorkie said calmly.
Nitro, who was sitting on a chair on the side, stared at the scene with interest, without any intention of interfering or interrupting, as if he was watching the fun.
He also asked the bean-faced man to make him a pot of tea.
"Hmm... Although he has some brains, but not much... This is why you have been unable to defeat him all these years."
Hao suddenly changed the subject, looked at Yorkshire, and then pointed at Pariston, who was smiling on the side.
"Ah? Are you talking about me?..."
Pariston's smile remained unchanged, pretending to be confused and surprised, "Sorry, I didn't react at the moment... This is the first time you have shown my existence."
boom!
Yorkie's cheeks turned red and he slapped the table, "We are discussing your murder, don't talk about anything else!"
"First, Westward Journey was sent by the Vice-President to participate in the mission. I think the Vice-President knows exactly what his thoughts and purposes are." He looked at Pariston again and smiled slightly, "Secondly, , we met the investigation team sent by the Kajin Empire on the island. They are all quite good telepathy users, and several of them are even top experts... If they were just here to investigate, they would not attack the team. Raid, so I’m sure they’re coming for me.”
"I can prove it."
Gai Lu raised her hand.
She saw the bodies of those masters that Long said... If they were to attack her and Men Qi, the team would undoubtedly cause casualties.
But no.
Instead, they all died in Hazy's hands. This couldn't be more obvious.
"The three-star mission is confidential. The timing of their landing on the island was too precise and clever... It means that there was a premeditation, the mission has been leaked, and there is a traitor in the team. If this is spread, it will have a certain impact on the reputation of the association. Impact."
"You mean... all this was done in collusion between Xiyou and the other party?"
When Yorkshire heard this, his expression changed slightly.
"But...why do I want to kill you? For what reason?"
"The reason is..."
Hao paused deliberately while speaking.
"alright."
At this time, Nitro suddenly interrupted, "What Hao said is basically true. Regarding the relationship between Journey to the West and the Cajun Empire, I have also received some physical evidence."
After finishing speaking, the bean-faced man handed over a piece of information.
Seeing this situation, Yorkshire already understood in her heart...the president might know the truth early on.
He and Hao were just going through the motions to give the association...an explanation to them.
The file was opened, and what was recorded in it was some information about traveling to the West and entering and leaving the Kajin Empire Palace, and even... there were photos.
"The royal family of the Cajun Empire?"
The twelve earthly branches looked at each other.
Jin Fulisi didn't even look at it. He had expected this result.
Pariston, on the other hand, opened his eyes that had always been squinted... and looked at Hazy's eyes, and there was a change.
These photos and information are not accessible to ordinary people.
At least it means one thing... there are people from the Phils family in the palace of the Cajun Empire.
"Don't be too surprised. There will be many things that will surprise you in the future..."
He looked at Pariston vaguely and said something meaningful.
"Is it specially prepared for me?"
Pariston looked happy.
"You are embarrassed for committing adultery. I prepared it for that wolf... You are just a piggybacker and you are not worthy."
"No matter how clean you wipe your butt, it will still smell..."
Hao shook his head and sneered bluntly.
Being scolded in public, Pariston remained extremely calm.
The other twelve earthly branches looked over and felt that there was obviously something wrong between the two people.
What kind of encrypted words are you talking about?
Journey to the West was arranged by Paris Stone, so starting from this point of view is basically useless.
The latter must have taken care of everything and there will be no clues.
At least, in the eyes of the president, there is no trace of Pariston, and all motivations stem from Biande.
"Regarding this matter, the association will send people to conduct follow-up investigations... Hao has not violated the rules of the association for the time being and is innocent." Nitro put down the tea cup, and the smile on his face faded.
Hao sent someone to deliver this information to him in advance... which undoubtedly showed that everything was related to his son.
Yorkie held the document in his hand with a reluctant expression.
There is an inside story... The president knows it, and so does Hao, but the old man has already made a conclusion and is not going to tell them.
It is certain that what Hao said is true...but it is definitely not pure innocence.
She didn't believe him if he said that he had no desire to kill Xiyou at all.
for what?
Twelve earthly branches?
Now that there is one less position, Hao can naturally replace Journey to the West.
Invisibly, Yorkshire seemed to see a big hand reaching towards the throne that symbolized the Hunter Association.
She sat back in her chair.
What a failure... She didn't understand everything, so she just scrawled her words, making herself look like a clown.
In addition, what she said just now that she couldn't beat Pariston made Yorkshire want to find a crack in the ground and crawl into it.
He also knows?
Suddenly, Yorkshire looked at the calm Pariston.
The man noticed her gaze, turned his head and smiled.
asshole!
When Yorkie saw this, he felt like crying.
"Now that the matter has come to an end, in view of the circumstances of Xiyou's passing... Hazy, you will..." Suddenly, Nitro said softly.
Everyone knew what the president was going to say...and this time, no one else was consulted, and it was a direct appointment.
"I'm sorry, President, I don't want to become the twelve earthly branches, you'd better find someone else."
The words are astonishing.
The Yorkie, who had his head lowered, suddenly raised his head with a look of disbelief on his face.
Everyone else was surprised too.
Only Jin Fulisi looked at him with a serious expression.
Pariston also saw what kind of card Rong was playing...
"This guy...has a huge appetite!"
Jin secretly said.
From the current point of view, the first meeting between Pariston and Hagi will probably be a draw.
Pariston definitely got what he wanted, but he couldn't take advantage of the situation and add insult to injury.
Want to stop it?
But I'm afraid it's useless to stop...
Jin looked at Nitro again and frowned.
