29 True Spirit Power

Qiao Licorice recalled: "The remains of monsters in the Security Bureau were processed first and then transported outside, and they would not be directly loaded in a body bag and transported outward. Besides, that was not the job of collecting corpses, so I could see at a glance that there was something wrong."

"Then you stopped the corpse collector?" asked Blue Bird.

"I also checked which monster was in the body bag. When I saw it was a siren, I became more convinced that the corpse collector was robbing himself." Speaking of this, Qiao Licorice was still scared. It seemed that for people other than me, something like "it" that looks like a human and non-human is also particularly creepy in the monster. Especially for people with high awareness, it will inspire a strong uncanny valley effect. No matter how beautiful and cute it looks, it will stimulate a person's survival instinct and cannot help but have the urge to turn around and escape.

She added, "Because it was specially taken care of by your teacher, and the remains of the monster that should be incinerated immediately after the harmless treatment."

I glanced at the interrogator and asked Joe Licorice, “Treat harmlessly?”

"The remains of monsters usually have to stand for several days first. If residual spiritual pollution is found, they must be removed first. Incineration may spread the pollution." The person who answered this question was the interrogator, and then he looked at Joe Licorice, "And what? Why don't you report this situation?"

"Uh... I was in sight with him at that time, and somehow, my mind was full of his home and it was not easy... So I thought of urging him to incinerate the body of the sirens until I saw that his incineration work was over with my own eyes. I thought that I had never seen this." Qiao Gancao recalled, but seemed to have finally realized the discord from his consciousness, and his face changed.

Then, she became puzzled again, "Regardingly, the entire body has been put into the incinerator, so it is impossible for her to have any tricks left."

"——You dare to use puppet technique on your colleagues?" The interrogator's majestic gaze pressed the corpse collector so hard that he could not raise his head. The latter did not refute it for a word. It seemed that it was true, so the gaze became increasingly harsh. "If our psychoanalyst was not barely considered a sorcerer and had some immunity to this kind of spell, otherwise it would not be a question of whether to report it or not. I really want you to transport the entire body out."

Puppet Art... Bluebird has indeed said that the corpse collectors in the past were warlocks known for puppet art... While thinking, I asked Qiao Gancao, "When you follow Bluebird to Wuming Mountain to look for me, is it also related to this matter?"

"Yes... After that, I couldn't figure out why the corpse collector stole the body of the sirens. He asked him, he was hesitating, so I wondered if I could know something from you." She first glared at the corpse collector fiercely, and then replied to me obediently, "But you are missing, Blue Bird and I had to rush to Wuming Mountain to find you, but as we searched, he collided with the old bone hiding in Wuming Mountain. When you ran away, you rushed over to save me..."

"So when you met Li Duo later, why didn't you ask Li Duo?" asked Blue Bird.

I figured it out, "Because you were there at that time, maybe you will report the situation to your teacher after hearing this."

So Qiao Licorice said at that time, "I'll talk about it later if I have the chance."

While we were talking, the two white-clothed wardrobe warriors were also busy. One of them was making records, and the other was silently adjusting the lie detectors I had seen many times before.

Qiao Gancao quickly shook her head and explained: "The body is placed in a body bag and can't be seen if it is covered with a little."

"You always have some movement when you open the body bag zipper."

"Joe Licorice opened the zipper when checking the body bag, and then I deliberately didn't close it, just waiting for that opportunity."

Upon hearing this, Qiao Gancao said angrily: "Waiting for that opportunity... Do you think you can just cut off your hands and get a friend of the old bones?"

"It's better than not handing over anything... and I can't find a way to convince you to let me transport the entire body out, which is even more impossible to attack you and escape from the security bureau with your body..." The corpse collector sighed, "The best situation is that the law enforcement warlock can capture the old bones in time, but the old bones have not been arrested for a long time. I lied to him before and said that the body had not been incinerated yet, but now I see the deadline is approaching, so I have to bite the bullet and take the broken hand out..."

"Then you saw me walking into the security bureau and then sneak attacked me from behind. Did the move you used initially also called puppet technique? I wanted to turn me into a puppet, and pretended to be fine and took me out of the security bureau?" I asked.

The corpse collector didn't know that I had recovered my strength at that time, probably because he thought that my only remaining "residual heat" was exhausted and he had no power to fight back. And without summoning the Siren Blade, I looked no different from ordinary people.

I continued, "Do you think that as long as you add me, you can increase the bargaining chips with Lao Bo?"

The corpse collector dared not look at me directly, "I have a family. What I like most is the relatives and friends who attack the target first, and then force the target to submit. If I were one-on-one with him, I was not afraid, but I was afraid that he would attack my family. I had someone better than him before, but he caught his family and died in a frustration..."

When I heard this, I thought of myself.

My true identity information is very easy to investigate. If the old bone has that meaning, you will soon know who my parents are and can kidnap them as hostages. Although I have a cold relationship with my parents, if my parents become hostages, it will become difficult for me to take action.

However, he did not do this to me, which made me confused.

Is it a kind of reserve or principle of being an Avenger? It is impossible, he hates me so much and uses all means. In order to see my painful appearance, he will definitely do it without hesitation, and that is originally his "specialty".

I expressed my confusion, and when I said this, some of the people present were stunned.

The insurgent warrior who was adjusting the lie detector instruments unconsciously said, "...Does the demon Li Duo also have a mom and a dad?"

I looked at him, and he was so scared that he quickly said, "No, no, no, I didn't mean that!"

OK, I already know the reason.

"Then, let's answer some more questions." This time it was the interrogator's turn to preside over the presidency.

The questions he raised later were all related to the great sorcerer Bai Qiao, but unfortunately, the corpse collector didn't know why Bai Qiao appeared there at that time.

Perhaps Bai Ju is the person behind Lao Gu, and because he felt that his subordinates were delaying, he took action personally? Although this speculation is partially reasonable, it is ultimately due to lack of evidence.

Finally, the interrogator asked the last question as if he wanted to re-certify, "Did you do the stolen and sold monster remains in the Security Bureau in the past?"

The corpse collector opened his mouth dryly. He glanced at the lie detector next to him. After a long time, he finally gave up, "...it's me."

"The punishment for your malfeasance will be issued later." The interrogator turned around and walked towards the exit, "--Your crime of colluding with a sorcerer criminal will also be included."

"Wait...wait!" Hearing the following sentence, the corpse collector finally couldn't control his emotions. He said loudly, "I was forced, and I have no choice!"

The interrogator did not listen to him, and the sage warlock opened the door for him and he walked out directly.

I also went out, and at the same time, I felt the gaze of the corpse collector shifting to myself, and his voice continued to sound, mixed with anger and fear, "I don't agree... I don't agree! Why can such guys be exempted from punishment, but I have to be punished? Tell me, tell me! Lieque!!"

The door of the interrogation room was closed, and his voice was also sealed inside.

----

The interrogator Lecque stopped and turned his head to us and said, "This matter has come to an end, let's break up first."

Both the Housekeepers and Joe Licorice left.

I was also planning to walk away, and the last words of the corpse collector echoed in my mind. If it were me before, those last words would have made me insomnia, but at this moment, there was something more important, which attracted my thoughts like a black hole - that was the hand that was stolen.

Even if I just recall that hand, I felt the inner world was in chaos, as if I was about to recover from my body.

Suddenly, the blue bird grabbed my hand. I looked at her, and she shook her head at me and signaled me to stay first.

"Teacher, I have something to say." She looked at Lecque again, "It's related to Lido."

Is it necessary to recommend me to join the Security Bureau? I felt nervous. But it happened that I also wanted to ask Lieque.

Lecque seemed a little absent-minded, but when he heard the bluebird talking, he turned his attention back, "Well? Well, don't talk in the corridor if you have anything to do, go to my office to talk."

Then, Bluebird and I followed Lieque and walked into his office.

"Sorry, the people in our bureau had a bad plot against you before." After closing the door, his first sentence was to apologize to me, probably about the corpse collector.

"It's over." I didn't care about that anymore, but changed the topic, "Who is Baiju compared to this...? I only heard that he is a great warlock, but I heard you say before that he is a super criminal?"

"That's right... the great warlock Bai Ju, or the dark scientist Bai Ju... He was also a law enforcement warlock of the Security Bureau. I had experience working with him." He said melancholy, "Later, he got involved in the taboo dark science. His research had many serious violations of ethics, which were not tolerated by the Security Bureau. Finally, the headquarters issued a wanted order to him, and he fled overseas, his whereabouts became a mystery, and his witness information was found everywhere around the world. I didn't expect that he would appear in Liucheng this time."

Dark scientist... I recalled Bai Qiao's appearance. Indeed, he had a researcher-like coldness. But what's the nickname "Dark Scientist"? It sounds very popular among some teenagers who are in a rebellious period and love fantasy.

I remembered the alarmist words that Bai Ju had said to me again, and tried to ask Lieque for advice.

"Maybe you have received some very hidden but strong curses in the process of receiving the power of the Siren. White Horse has a perception of the Siren that is beyond our own, otherwise he would not suddenly appear and snatch the hand. His words may have alarmist parts, but they cannot be regarded as a joke. I suggest you take the time to do a deep curse in the bureau later. Don't worry, you won't charge you. As far as our Security Bureau stands, you can't let people who are suspected of having mysterious curses run around outside." Lieque thought seriously and answered slowly, "I also have questions to ask you... Are there anything you haven't said about the Siren?"

"No, I have said everything before."

"Is that so? So, did Baima say anything else to you before?"

"Other words..." Of course there are, although brief, I have never forgotten, "He mentioned the 'true spirit power' to my Siren Blade."

"What?" Liech's face changed slightly.

"Ah, I heard it too." Bluebird also said, "But is this possible? Although the Siren Blade is very magical... but is it the power of the true spirit?"

Both of them had extraordinary reactions, and I asked curiously: "What is the power of the true spirit?"

"Well..." Bluebird thought for a while, "I mentioned to you before... there are more than one way to become a great warlock, and the Appearance is just one of them."

"Have you been," I said.

"In other ways to become a great warlock, there is another way, called the 'self-provement of the true spirit'." She said, "One of the characteristics of the self-provement of the true spirit is the ability to use the power of the true spirit freely."
