Once, I Wanted To Be a Good Person

   Chapter 249 166. Harvest: Pocket Watch of Hostility

   Hearing his son's voice at the door, the head of the Jiang family stood up conditioned reflexively, and then strode out to greet him.

   Jiang Cheng, who was outside the door, had already broken free from the support of the maid, his hair was disheveled, and he staggered into the door. Then, as soon as he saw his father, he suddenly knelt down at his father's feet and cried bitterly, "Father, you must help me. Fang Ze is too deceiving!"

   Seeing Jiang Cheng like this and hearing Jiang Cheng's words, the head of the Jiang family's face was cold and his eyes were full of distress. While supporting Jiang Cheng, he said, "Cheng'er, don't worry, stand up first and speak slowly."

Hearing his father's words, Jiang Cheng didn't get up at all. He was clearly in his thirties, and he was almost forty, but he hugged his father's legs like a child, crying and saying, "Father. I've never been so wronged before."

   "That night, I was clearly lying on the bed at home, but when I opened my eyes, I found myself in a completely unfamiliar place."

   "And my ability was banned and my strength was controlled. I couldn't resist at all."

   "And Fang Ze appeared in front of me, looking at me intently."

   "I didn't know what was going on, so I was arrested by him"

   Speaking of this, Jiang Cheng showed an unbearable expression on his face, and said with a bitter look, "Then I was hanged by him for all kinds of humiliation."

   Hearing Jiang Cheng's words, Jiang Cheng's father lifted Jiang Cheng up with a slight force on his arms and pressed him onto the chair beside him. He took a deep breath and said with an ugly face, "Are you sure it's Fang Ze?"

   Jiang Cheng nodded vigorously and said, "I'm sure! Even if he turns to ashes, I'll recognize him!"

   Jiang Cheng's father's eyes flickered. For a moment, he looked at Jiang Cheng, and then asked, "How did you escape?"

   Hearing his father's words, Jiang Cheng couldn't help but hesitate. "I don't know either," he said in confusion.

"All I know is that Fang Ze has been torturing me for the past few days. But something suddenly happened today. At night, for some reason, the chain that bound my wrist suddenly broke, and I fell off the torture device. I opened my eyes again, went back home."

   "Maybe there is a time limit to the way he trapped me?"

   Jiang Cheng's father narrowed his eyes slightly, lowered his head and started to meditate, not knowing what he was thinking.

   After a moment, he looked up and asked for more details about Jiang Cheng's disappearance these days. According to Fang Ze's request, Jiang Cheng recounted the events of the past few days half-truth.

   Jiang Cheng's father is obviously not someone who is easy to be deceived. He has been asking Jiang Cheng for almost an hour before he stops his inquiry. After that, he comforted Jiang Cheng and told Jiang Cheng that he would definitely uphold justice for him, and then called a maid to take Jiang Cheng down, and let Jiang Cheng rest first, and talk about it tomorrow.

   After watching Jiang Cheng leave, Jiang Cheng's father's eyes narrowed slowly. After a moment, he suddenly said to the empty room, "What do you think?"

   Hearing Jiang Cheng's father's question, a gentle scholar dressed in Hanfu and holding a folding fan came out from the dark corner of the room. His brows were furrowed, and he was obviously analyzing what Jiang Cheng had just said.

   For a moment, he bowed slightly towards Jiang Cheng's father, and said slowly, "Patriarch. I think there is something else hidden in this matter. It is probably a trap."

   Hearing the scholar's words, Jiang Cheng's father made a noncommittal "Oh?" and asked, "Why do you say that?"

   The scholar analyzed, "The first is the mysterious disappearance of the young master and the equally bizarre appearance. If you want to silently break through the layers of defenses of the family, you must be able to do it with a demigod."

   "The only demigods alive in Xida are the ancestors and the old man of the Bai family."

   "It is impossible for these two princes to do such a thing for Fang Ze."

   "So if it's really a demigod, it's likely to be an extraterritorial demigod who secretly descended to Xida state or a noble from another state."

   "Secondly, the young master said that Fang Ze had been torturing him for three days."

"But after the young master disappeared, we monitored Fang Ze for the first time. He has been carrying out secret missions for the Security Bureau for the past two days. Therefore, the situation in the entire state capital has been messed up and people are panicking. He has no time."

   "Furthermore, he just saw you today and sent the young master back at night. Wouldn't this be a bit too coincidental? The coincidence seems to be deliberately arranged."

   "The last is the young master."

   Having said this, he couldn't help but stop.

   Jiang Cheng's father gave him a blank look and said coldly, "Don't worry. Go on."

   "Yes." The scholar agreed, and then analyzed, "What the young master said just now sounds alright at first glance. But when you think about it, it can't stand scrutiny. There are too many loopholes and ambiguities."

   "And the young master is too good at lying. When he lies, the fingers of his left hand like to rub, and when he says this, his left hand hardly stops."

   "So to sum up the above, I think there must be a hidden meaning in this matter."

   Hearing the scholar's words, Jiang Cheng's father also took a deep breath and then exhaled heavily.

   He asked coldly, "Then what do you think of Fang Ze's aura of Cheng'er?"

   The scholar said lightly, "Deliberately framed."

   Jiang Cheng's father was silent for a while, and then he also said, "I think the same as you. This thing is too coincidental, and the method is too crude."

   "If Fang Ze really did this. Then he has no reason to put Cheng'er back. This will only increase his suspicion."

   "Furthermore, even if Fang Ze really did this, it means that he has the support of a demigod behind him, and we don't dare to take action!"

   "And if Fang Ze didn't do this, then things would be interesting."

   His eyes flickered, "It should be impossible for Mr. Bai to do this. Then the mastermind behind the scenes is likely to be a demigod from outside the territory or a noble family from another state."

   "The purpose should be to intensify the conflict between us and Fang Ze. To cause chaos in Xida, or to suppress Fang Ze."

"or."

   Speaking of this, he couldn't say anymore, "All this is a play directed and acted by Cheng'er."

   "The purpose is to let the family suppress Fang Ze and help him vent his anger."

   Hearing Jiang Cheng's father's words, the scholar smiled and said nothing. Apparently he thought of this too, but it was just inconvenient to say it.

   After all, three possibilities:

  1. There is a demigod behind Fang Ze, who broke through the layers of defenses of the Jiang family and kidnapped Jiang Cheng, and then accidentally let Jiang Cheng run away.

  2. In order to mess up Xida Prefecture or suppress Fang Ze, the demigods outside the realm or demigods from other states broke through the layers of defenses of the Jiang family, planned such an extremely rough kidnapping case, and deliberately let Jiang Cheng go.

  3. Jiang Cheng secretly hid himself in the manor so that no one could find him. He would show up again two days later and framed it for Fang Ze.

   Of these three possibilities, the easiest to implement and the most plausible is actually the third one.

   Thinking of this, Jiang Cheng's father rubbed his temples, and then sighed, "This child is almost forty years old. When will he grow up?"

   After he finished speaking, he waved his hand a little tiredly and said, "Take him to check it tomorrow. After confirming that there is no problem, the matter will be sealed and no one is allowed to talk about it."

   "If it's really the first two possibilities, Fang Ze and those demigods will see no effect, so it's impossible to just do it this time."

   "If it's the last one."

   After a moment, he sighed deeply, "Hey."

   Hearing Jiang Cheng's father's words, the scholar hurriedly bowed and said, "Yes, my lord."

   After the two of them finished talking about this, Jiang Cheng's father suddenly asked again, "What do you think of Fang Ze's return to the Si family's old department today?"

   After talking about this, the scholar's expression became a lot more solemn. He said, "Because of the fact that the Si family controlled the federal garrison and the particularity of their abilities, the affiliated forces were the strongest in the entire Eastern Jurisdiction Region."

   "In addition, the old man of the Si family has always been ambiguous about the demigod's position, so each family tacitly suppressed them and suppressed the development of the Si family."

   "In the end, I didn't expect that only a few people escaped back then, but now they have become so powerful."

Speaking of this, he couldn't help but sighed, "In addition to not having top experts, the current Si family has a solid noble background. Give them a few more years, and it's really hard to say who has the final say in Xida. ."

   Jiang Cheng's father also said with a gloomy expression, "Yeah. The wave of strength that Fang Ze showed today really shocked us."

   "Nine-renowned Huayang Rank. This is still under the condition of lack of resources. With time, there will be two or three Fading Mortal Ranks."

   He didn't go further, but the expression on his face proved his concern.

   Maybe his emotions were infected with the scholar. The scholar stood there, shaking his fan and thinking.

  Fang Ze still didn't know his strategy of advancing and retreating, and successfully resolved the crisis of Jiang Cheng's disappearance. After he sent Jiang Cheng away, he started the investigation tonight.

  The object of his investigation is the second traitor Congressman: Congressman Xu.

  Fang Ze's purpose is very simple, just to see if he can get more information about Da Hei Jia Luo and the fifth traitor from Congressman Xu

  The investigation was done step by step for two hours.

   After the investigation, Fang Ze disconnected the link of Councilman Xu, who was still immersed in his dreams, and closed his eyes to sort out the information he had obtained.

   "It was him"

   After confirming that there was nothing missing, Fang Ze opened his eyes with a smile.

   Strolled to the table, at this time there was a strange thing like a silver pocket watch on the table, which was obviously the harvest of today.

  Because the intelligence value obtained tonight is not bad, Fang Ze is also looking forward to this harvest.

   Thinking so, Fang Ze picked up the pocket watch and waited patiently for two minutes.

   For a moment, the information of this pocket watch appeared in his mind.

  【Hostile pocket watch】

  Open this pocket watch, and creatures within ten meters around you will appear on the pocket watch. Creatures that are friendly to you or normal will be green. If the mob is hostile to you, it will be displayed in red.

   Very simple one introduction and one item. But the effect is not small.

  Fang Ze held this pocket watch, thought for a while, and then opened it with a "click".

   Immediately, the dial of the pocket watch appeared in front of Fang Ze. Minutes, hours, seconds, scales are all there, only the dial is a quirky grid with a pale green dot of light not far from the center.

  Fang Ze looked along the direction of the green light spot, and then saw the boring grass squatting in the corner and drawing circles.

  The grass is green, Fang Ze has no doubts.

  ‘ seems to be useful? Try another one. ’

   Thinking so, Fang Ze left the late-night investigation room and returned to the real world.

   In the real world, Fang Ze opened his hostile pocket watch.

   Immediately, three green light spots appeared on the pocket watch. One is in the center of the pocket watch, apparently the flower **** who is secretly absorbing Fang Ze's energy while Fang Ze is sleeping.

   There are two more, one should be standing outside the door, apparently the maid on duty at night. Another is dynamic: it moves all the way from the top of the pocket watch to the bottom, and finally disappears. Fang Ze guessed that it might be a night guard outside the villa, or a passing creature.

   Looking at the function of the pocket watch in front of him, Fang Ze nodded, which was similar to what he thought: Although it is said to be a hostile radar, because it can display everyone around him, it can also be used as a surrounding biological monitor. This is in a way even more useful than detecting hostility!

   As long as he checks this item regularly, Fang Ze is not afraid of invisible creatures sneaking up on him, or creatures suddenly appearing beside him.

   And, with this item, he can see how the attitude of the hundreds of members of the parliament towards him will be tomorrow. Know yourself and others.

  ‘The harvest was not bad tonight. ’

  Thinking like this, after putting the pocket watch on the pillow, Fang Ze lay on the bed and fell asleep.

   was speechless all night.

   On the second day, Fang Ze was going to screen many congressmen and find the last traitor.

  Because things are more important, so before seven o'clock, Fang Ze's got up, washed and solved personal problems under the service of the maid.

   After eating a hearty breakfast, Fang Ze brought the shadow, Nan Yi, Xiaoyou and other cronies to the Security Bureau.

   Came to the door of the female director's office, Fang Ze asked Nanyi and Xiaoyou to wait outside the door, and then he and Hei Ying entered the female director's office.

  The female director is obviously a workaholic. Fang Ze has already arrived half an hour earlier than normal working hours, but she came earlier than Fang Ze. And from the looks of it, it's obviously been working for a long time. Fang Ze wondered for a while. Did she just stay in the Security Bureau last night and didn't go home?

   Seeing Fang Ze bring the black shadow into the office, the female director's gaze swept over the black shadow and asked blankly, "Is this the master with the ability to spy?"

   Then she seemed to sense the situation of the shadow a little, and for a moment, she nodded slightly, "A shadow warrior with good strength? The candidate is good. All the details can be rounded out."

   "I was worried yesterday that you would choose a master from the Si family who was exposed yesterday. Now, you are not that stupid."

   Speaking of this, she paused, "Then let him play this scene with us today."

   Hearing the female director's words, Fang Ze thought for a moment, and then said, "Director. Actually, I have another idea. I wonder if we can change our plan today."

   "Change plan?" The female director glanced at Fang Ze with a little puzzlement in her eyes.

   Fang Ze said, "Yes. My idea is that I won't come forward today, only let him come forward to investigate."

"Just let him come forward?" Upon hearing Fang Ze's words, the female director frowned slightly, and looked at Fang Ze in surprise, and then at the black man who had been standing there without saying a word since entering the room. film.
