Chapter 109: Liu Zhe’s Disheveled State
The impact of this matter was extremely negative.
Song Tiantian is a very famous public figure, and she herself was not at fault. This incident began when Liu Zhe attacked Song Tiantian because his cousin was imprisoned.
Liu Zhe hasn’t even married into the Gongsun family yet!
Song Tiantian herself has made significant contributions to society; the help that Cold Fragrance Number One and Cold Fragrance Number Two provided to Beast Tamers cannot be overstated.
To be so inexplicably killed by Liu Zhe, even if Liu Zhe is a Seven-star Beast Tamer, I must investigate this matter.
At the very least, the world has not descended into chaos yet, and no one can arbitrarily harm a citizen’s life.
“Lord Law Enforcement Officer, Song Tiantian resigned from the Pet Beast Center in the afternoon. According to the law, one must wait forty-eight hours to report a missing person! Furthermore, I have been at the Pet Beast Center since the afternoon, handling its affairs. Dr. Bai has been missing for a long time.
The Pet Beast Center cannot be without a leader for a single day, and there are many matters piled up here. If you truly have so much free time, why not investigate Dr. Bai’s disappearance? I have no enmity with Song Tiantian, and there’s no reason for me to harm her.”
Although Liu Zhe was severely injured, his mental power was intact. His Seven-star Beast Tamer’s mental pressure was something these people could not withstand.
Leng Qing had already smelled the scent of blood. She hadn’t expected Song Tiantian to have an accident, and now she truly couldn’t contact Song Tiantian.
Although her Strength was not as great as Liu Zhe’s, she thought about the current uncertain situation and the internal strife occurring in the rear.
Her own people attacking her own people made her feel immense heartache.
Song Tiantian did not die at the hands of a Ghost, but she died at the hands of her own people.
Leng Qing gritted her teeth, blood flowing in her mouth. She said with great determination to Liu Zhe, “Supervisor Liu, Song Tiantian came to the Law Enforcement Bureau this afternoon to report a case. Why did you viciously beat Song Tiantian this afternoon to such an extent? She was so frightened that she fled Qingshan City overnight. Why did you directly attack her!”
Her eyes were filled with ice-coldness.
She became a Law Enforcement Officer precisely to protect ordinary citizens. If these higher-ups were all like this, what meaning would her protection have, and her brother’s sacrifice would also become meaningless.
Such blatant actions were simply unbearable.
“Hmph, Liu Zhe, Qingshan City is not without Dr. Bai. Dr. Bai’s disappearance does not mean Qingshan City is without people. The Official sent you to Qingshan City to protect the ordinary citizens of Qingshan City, not to commit evil deeds.”
An elder with white hair, wearing a Zhongshan suit, appeared behind everyone. Leng Qing felt her entire body relax, and that terrifying pressure instantly vanished.
Huang Xiaohua looked at the elder with joy in her eyes.
“Grandpa, you’re finally here! If you hadn’t come, I’m afraid your granddaughter would have been beaten to death like Song Tiantian!”
Liu Zhe was already injured, and at this moment, being attacked by this powerful pressure, he could no longer control himself and spat out a mouthful of blood.
Perhaps due to his injuries, or perhaps due to the threat of death.
His mind instantly cleared.
When he was with Gongsun Ya, he saw countless people fawning over the Nobles, and he watched as those Nobles possessed supreme Power, disregarding the lives of ordinary people.
He gradually began to feel arrogant, thinking he was also a Noble.
But no matter what, he knew he couldn’t attack Song Tiantian in broad daylight.
The Qi Luck Backlash was truly too terrifying.
He had actually lost his mind to such an extent that he would beat Song Tiantian half to death in public.
The key was that Song Tiantian had been pretending all along, never revealing her true Strength before.
By the time he truly pursued her, he was beaten half to death by Song Tiantian.
He also didn’t know that the Qi Luck Backlash could actually reduce one’s intelligence.
At this moment, he could only immediately beg Elder Huang for mercy, saying, “Elder Huang, this is all a misunderstanding. I was controlled by a Ghost. Otherwise, no matter what, I wouldn’t have suddenly attacked Song Tiantian. I’m not stupid.
But I regained my senses later and tried my best to restrain myself.
I would rather be severely injured myself than harm Song Tiantian. I didn’t kill Song Tiantian; Song Tiantian must have hidden herself.
Elder Huang stroked the small beast in his palm and said to Liu Zhe, “You are lying. This little beast of mine can discern falsehoods. You killed Song Tiantian, and according to Flower Country law, malicious murder is punishable by death.”
Liu Zhe immediately panicked. He couldn’t die; he had finally become a Seven-star Beast Tamer.
He immediately said to Elder Huang, “I didn’t kill Song Tiantian. Song Tiantian is very Powerful. I was severely injured by her and could only flee back in disgrace.”
As he spoke, he immediately untied his clothes.
Leng Qing looked at Liu Zhe’s pathetic state. Just a moment ago, Liu Zhe had been arrogant, as if he were a Big Boss in charge of life and death.
At this moment, Liu Zhe was lying on the Ground, looking humble and terrified. He had taken off his clothes, and his body was covered in whip marks.
“You’re talking nonsense! You’re a Seven-star Beast Tamer, how could you be defeated by Song Tiantian!”
Leng Qing didn’t believe it. She knew Song Tiantian’s Strength well. Even if Liu Zhe was incompetent, he shouldn’t have been defeated by Song Tiantian.
“It’s true. Wasn’t Song Tiantian taken to the Capital City by Dr. Bai before? Her Contract is with a Spiritual Plant Fierce Beast that shares the same origin as Dr. Bai, and it’s extremely powerful. It can directly break through the Spiritual Energy defense of a Seven-star Beast Tamer. I was careless and underestimated Song Tiantian, almost being counter-killed by her, and could only flee back to heal myself. When I left, she was definitely still alive and well.”
Liu Zhe now understood why Gongsun Ya broke up with him: it was because he attacked Song Tiantian this afternoon.
And in front of so many people.
Smart people would likely have seen that something was wrong.
Elder Huang looked at Liu Zhe’s appearance and sighed. He hadn’t expected Liu Zhe to be so incompetent. He knew Liu Zhe was telling the truth.
If he had known Song Tiantian had such Talent earlier, he would have definitely stepped in to protect Song Tiantian.
He couldn’t understand how Liu Zhe broke through to Seven-star with such a poor state of mind!
He felt that the previous rumors might be true, and Liu Zhe’s achievements were all due to flattering the Gongsun family.
“According to the law, malicious assault is punishable by seven days of detention.”
“Elder Huang, Song Tiantian has always accepted bribes. Before Cold Fragrance Number Two was even on the market, Song Tiantian accepted bribes and allowed people to conduct Drug Testing. I wasn’t maliciously assaulting Song Tiantian; I was merely maintaining order at the Pet Beast Center.”
At this moment, Liu Zhe’s mind was racing, and he recounted everything Liu Zheng had told him.
“How many people Cold Fragrance Number Two has benefited, and Dr. Bai and Song Tiantian have selflessly contributed its Secret Formula. This matter cannot be slandered by anyone.”
Elder Huang could still distinguish the importance of matters at this time.
