Chapter 39

above the court.

Qiao Zhengfang, a local parent officer in Sucheng, was handling the case. Seeing the group of people in the hall, Qiao Zhengfang felt a little headache. How could so many people be involved in a case of missing persons, and the Qingyu Sect was also involved.

"My lord, I have brought you here." The official sent Cheng Zhe and Qi Jiarui to push forward.

Qiao Zhengfang looked at the two people in the hall seriously, and asked, "Today, someone reported that my lady disappeared in Room B of Yunlai Inn without any reason. What's going on now?"

The official said, "My lord, with the help of Qingyu Sect, my subordinates found Qi Jiarui in a separate courtyard in the city."

"Oh," Qiao Zhengfang cast his eyes on Cheng Zhe, "tell me what's going on?"

Cheng Zhe is just a frustrated scholar. When he saw such a scene, his legs immediately went limp, and his words trembled, "My lord, I never did anything bad!"

Having said that, Su Mi stood up and said, "My lord, we checked in the room where Miss Qi disappeared, and it seems that she came out of the room on her own initiative."

"Yes, yes," Cheng Zhe nodded repeatedly, "Miss Qi found me by herself, and it has nothing to do with me. I hope your lord will find out."

At this time, Qi Jiarui, who was silent all the time, looked at Cheng Zhe in shock, her eyes filled with disbelief, "Cheng Zhe, what do you mean by that, we obviously have an appointment..."

Before Qi Jiarui could finish speaking, Cheng Zhe interrupted eagerly, "What kind of appointment, we never had any agreement, so don't talk nonsense."

Facing Cheng Zhe's sudden change of mind, Qi Jiarui just felt that the sky was about to fall. Such Cheng Zhe made her feel very strange, "That's not what you said in the letter before."

Qiao Zhengfang, who was sitting in a high position, looked at the scene in front of him and suddenly asked, "Cheng Zhe, what is the relationship between you and Qi Jiarui?"

As soon as this question came out, Cheng Zhe's expression immediately became subtle. Qi Jiarui moved his mouth, but he didn't have the nerve to speak after all.

The officer urged impatiently, "My lord is asking you something, are you deaf?"

Cheng Zhe was timid, so he said a little shyly, "Miss Qi and I... met by chance."

Nie Jiaojiao scoffed at such a statement, "I've seen you guys a lot, I'm afraid you and this lady are in love, so let's make an appointment to elope."

This remark annoyed Cheng Zhe, and he immediately said displeased, "What are you talking about, there is nothing between Miss Qi and I, you can't spit blood on others."

Although what Cheng Zhe said was righteous, Qi Jiarui looked hurt, "I've made up my mind to be with you, what do you mean by that!" Cheng Zhe avoided talking about it.

Qi Jiarui was hit hard, her eyes were clouded with mist in an instant, Yingchun saw her young lady like this, and hurried forward to comfort her.

"Miss Qi," Cheng Zhe was unhappy, "You and I just met each other once, and you took the initiative to look for me last night, but I have never done anything beyond the rules!"

Su Mi watched everything coldly. This Cheng Zhe was really a scumbag. Others didn't know what happened, but she knew it all.

He is just an ordinary scholar in Sucheng. He makes a living by writing letters to others on weekdays. He is lucky in gambling and can occasionally make a little money. He met Qi Jiarui by chance, and then the two of them began to pass on letters.

Qi Jiarui's escape last night was entirely Cheng Zhe's idea.

"You're talking nonsense!" Qi Jiarui accused sadly and angrily, "Obviously you arranged everything..."

"Miss Qi, do you have evidence for what she said?" Cheng Zhe looked at Qi Jiarui without any fear.

"You said you want me to burn the letter as soon as I receive it, and don't leave any traces..." Qi Jiarui had studied in the end, and she wasn't stupid, so she quickly realized, "Everything was planned by you, you Heartless people, shameless!"

However, no matter how angry Qi Jiarui was, it was useless. Without direct evidence, Qiao Zhengfang couldn't convict Cheng Zhe out of thin air.

Obviously Qi Jiarui also thought of this.

"I'll kill you!" In grief and anger, Qi Jiarui stretched out her hand and rushed towards Cheng Zhe.

Everything happened unexpectedly, no one expected that Qi Jiarui would suddenly run away. Fortunately, Qi Hui was the closest to Cheng Zhe and immediately blocked Qi Jiarui.

Yingchun was also taken aback by Miss's actions, and cried, "Miss, calm down, this is in court!"

Being blocked by several people in a row, Qi Jiarui had no choice but to give up, but her heart was full of mixed feelings.

She had exchanged letters with Cheng Zhe for several months, and she abandoned everything to come to Sucheng to look for him, but what she got in return was the other party's denial.

"Looking back, I was such a fool." Qi Jiarui burst into tears as she spoke.

Qiao Zhengfang has a headache, the case has not been heard clearly, the scene is already a mess, "Silence! Qi Jiarui, how did you get out of the restaurant last night?"

Qi Jiarui cried for a while, and finally calmed down a little under the comfort of Yingchun.

It turned out that the hair and bloodstains that appeared last night were prepared by her in advance, and she was going to push everything to ghosts and gods.

She first stunned Yingchun, then arranged the scene, turned out the window, and found Cheng Zhe's house.

After hearing this, Yingchun was shocked and didn't know what to say.

The truth came to light, since Qi Jiarui directed and acted everything, she was also responsible, and Qiao Zhengfang ordered Qi Jiarui to pay Yunlai Inn a sum of money.

As for the method Qi Jiarui said was thought up by Cheng Zhe, Qiao Zhengfang ignored it because there was no evidence to prove it.

Qi Jiarui was unwilling, but there was nothing she could do.

The owner of Yunlai Inn thanked Qiao Zhengfang a lot. His restaurant almost lost its reputation because of this incident, and the loss would be more than a little bit.

"Retire." Qiao Zhengfang slapped the gavel and announced his withdrawal.

Everyone also breathed a sigh of relief, the matter was finally resolved.Although Cheng Zhe, the culprit who caused this incident, was not affected in the slightest, it is useless to be angry, and there is nothing he can do without evidence.

Yingchun supported Qi Jiarui and persuaded in a low voice, "Miss, let's go home quickly, if the family finds out, we will definitely not be able to eat and walk around."

Yingchun has no doubts, if Master Qi knows, he will immediately find a marriage for the young lady and marry her hastily, so as not to cause things to escalate in the future and damage the family's reputation.

Just as everyone was about to reach the door, the sky outside instantly turned dark.

It seems that just blinking an eye, the outside world has undergone earth-shaking changes.

The eyes of Qi Hui and the others became sharp in an instant. This abnormal situation may not indicate that some monster is coming.

"Everyone, don't panic, with my Green Feather Sect here, ordinary monsters would not dare to cause trouble." Qi Hui stepped in front of everyone, drew out his sword, and the sword shone coldly, everyone finally felt a little more at ease.

Qiao Zhengfang had never seen such a battle before, but he was an official anyway, so he couldn't seem too cowardly, so he pretended to be calm and said, "There is an immortal master here, everyone, don't panic."
