Glenda's expression revealed confusion.

As for the secret society, she gradually came into contact with it after she followed Wu Heng.

Before, whether I was alive or as a ghost in the basement, I had never heard of the secret society.

Even if someone from the secret society showed up, she wouldn't know what they were.

But she didn't expect that her husband had contact with the other party.

Wu Heng continued, "Things may not be as simple as we thought. He is a member of the secret society and has a relatively high status."

Glynda asked doubtfully, "He's just a bard. How could the Secret Order possibly think highly of him?"

"Just ask him when the time comes, and everything will be clear," Wu Heng said.

Then, his eyes fell on the second ring.

The style is very similar to that of the Secret Order, and the pattern does indeed have the image of a cat's head and mouse's teeth.

It still looks a little strange.

"Do you recognize this ring?" Wu Heng asked.

Glenda still shook her head.

……

Dong dong dong~!

While talking, there was a knock on the door.

"Come back first." Wu Heng waved his hand, and the ghost returned to his body.

The door opened immediately afterwards, and the butler Xi Lagui poked her head in and asked, "Looking for me?"

When Wu Heng came back, Xi Lagui and Shi Yali were not in the association.

I also went to the exhibition, coordinated patrols, and took charge there. After all, with so many dignitaries coming to the island, I had to ensure the safety of the scene.

Then she received a message from Wu Heng asking her to go back, so she rushed back immediately.

Wu Heng smiled and pointed to the two rings on the table. "We caught a member of the secret society on the island. We thought we could investigate this together."

"Secret Order?" Xilagui frowned and glanced at the ring, "Where are the people?"

"It's in the space ring. Let's go to the morgue together and bring the association recorder with us." Wu Heng stood up.

"Are they all dead?"

Wu Heng said: "He resisted fiercely, but we were afraid he would cause trouble, so we killed him directly."

Xilagui nodded and didn't say much.

He turned around and told Shi Yali behind him to call the association investigator over.

Wu Heng also stood up, and the two of them walked towards the basement together.

Xi Lagui asked: "What is the other party's identity?"

"Representative of the Merchant Corps."

"What's your purpose? What are you doing on the island?" Xilagui held the hilt of the sword at her waist with one hand, and her armor rustled as she walked.

"It's not clear yet. I'll ask about the situation when the time comes." Wu Heng said.

"The secret society is still lingering around and has reappeared now." Xilagui said through gritting her teeth.

"Yeah, it's endless."

The two walked and talked as they went down to the basement morgue together.

Instantly, a chilly feeling enveloped me.

"Master Island Master, Master Deacon." The two coroners immediately stood up and saluted.

"Borrow this place for a moment." Wu Heng said directly.

"Your Excellency," the coroner said politely.

Wu Heng continued to walk inside, and Xilagui followed behind.

"Aren't you going to ask about the corpse?" Xilagui asked curiously.

Wu Heng chose an empty room at the innermost part and released a dancing light spell on the ceiling, illuminating the room. He replied, "The Secret Society has encrypted the personnel, so we can't interrogate the corpse directly. I plan to awaken the other party's soul, and we will interrogate the soul."

Xilagui leaned against the door frame, raising her eyebrows.

It always feels a bit strange to use the word encryption to describe a corpse, but I understand what it means.

The body is restrained, and the restraint will be triggered if there is an attempt to reveal the intelligence inside.

This kind of thing is not uncommon.

"Just do it, and don't let anything go wrong."

Wu Heng took out the body and placed it in the middle of the room.

Then they began to take out various ritual materials and place them around the corpse.

After everything is arranged.

Holding the wooden staff, he gathered his magic power and thrust it towards the ground.

Huh~!

[Awaken the Soul] is released, and a ritual array gradually spreads out with the corpse as the center.

The ceremony began, and Wu Heng took out the Magic Soul Pot again and placed it into the formation of the ceremony.

The soul in the Demon Soul Pot was pulled out by the magic circle.

Revealing the outline of a man.

This is one of the level 18 vampire exiles killed by Wu Heng, and has been kept in the Magic Soul Pot.

I have forgotten some of the names.

The ghost appeared and looked around in horror.

"Necromancer, what are you doing?"

"Damn it, you can't do this. The vampires won't let you go."

Amidst a burst of curses and screams, the ghost was pulled into the body of the corpse.

Then, magical power gathered towards the corpse like a tide.

A ferocious ghost emerged from between the corpse's eyebrows.

His face was blurry, and he heard a deafening roar outside.

Having had the experience of waking up Benny last time, Wu Heng was well prepared and just waved his hand.

A bone cage appeared, instantly trapping the soul in front of it.

"Magnolo!" Wu Heng shouted.

The ghost was still roaring and struggling, like a mad beast, a consciousnessless ghost.

Wu Heng frowned and continued to shout, "Magnolo, wake up."

"Magnolo, representative of the Green Valley Chamber of Commerce."

"Magnolo, the Secret Order promises you immortality."

He shouted several times in succession.

The struggling ghost began to pause and move, gradually taking on the same appearance as the corpse.

He looked at Wu Heng with horror.

Wu Heng also breathed a sigh of relief. If he couldn't wake her up, he would have to let Granda out and shout along.

"Master Wu Heng, I think we need to have a good talk. There's no need to do this for a woman."

"I have some assets outside, and I am willing to give them all to you."

"I hope you will show some mercy..."

……

door of the room.

Xilagui opened her eyes wide and looked at the scene in front of her.

The skill of [Awakening Souls] was passed to Wu Heng through her, so she naturally knew this ability.

We also know that Wu Heng used this ability to awaken Benny in the story.

But I didn't expect the process to be so complicated.

Magic circles, ritual materials, and a complete soul are also required.

Without any one of them, the ritual cannot be completed.

This process is much more complicated than questioning a corpse.

If it's not a big deal, it would be a losing business to spend so much.

But from another perspective, as long as there are enough materials, the other party can be transformed into a soul and continue to question.

Find out everything you want to know.

The interrogation method is also improving.

……

Footsteps sounded from the stairs.

Xilagui leaned back slightly and took a look.

Shi Yali came over with two association investigators.

"The investigator is here." Xi Lagui reminded.

"Just let them in."

As they were talking, Shi Yali and the investigator walked to the door and saluted Xi Lagui.

"Go in. The people inside are members of the secret society. Just record them normally." Xilagui said.

The two investigators walked directly into the room, and Xi Lagui and Shi Yali also stood on the other side of the room.

"Wu Heng, let's start!" said Xilagui.

Wu Heng nodded and looked at the soul in the bone prison, "Magnolo, what is your status in the secret order?"

Magnolo's eyes narrowed as he defended himself, "I don't know what you are talking about. I ask the association to protect me."

Wu Heng took out two rings, "Rings from the Secret Order, do you think we can just ask you these?"

With a wave of his hand, the undead energy turned into a whip and lashed the soul.

The ghost wailed loudly, and its soul disintegrated again and again.

"I said, stop fighting," Magnolo yelled.

The whip stopped, and Magnolo's eyes turned, "You want to investigate the secret society, I will cooperate with you, but you have to promise to let me go."

Wu Heng snapped his fingers and swung the whip again.

Magnolo's body collapsed again, "Stop fighting, I'll tell you, I'll tell you!"

Wu Heng reminded, "If I hit you twice more, your soul will be completely shattered. Don't make yourself uncomfortable."

Magnolo's face was filled with fear, "I am from the Secret Order, the Secret Order."

Wu Heng waited for two seconds.

Magnolo had no problem with that.

It also means that the secret society's prohibitions have no effect on the soul's questions.

There was no case of brains exploding during the interrogation of corpses.

Wu Heng turned his head and looked back.

Xi Lagui said to the investigator: "Record it truthfully."

Swish swish swish~!

The investigators began to write in their notebooks.

Wu Heng then asked, "What are you doing on the island?"

“I am also a businessman when I attend exhibitions,” Magnolo said.

"Also, the purpose of the secret society."

Magnolo's eyes kept changing, and he knew that if he didn't speak, he would be beaten again. If he was beaten a few more times, his soul would be completely broken.

He said in a deep voice: "To investigate the situation on Treasure Island, and to retrieve the lost treasure from you."

"Besides you, are there any other members of the secret society coming to the island?"

"No..." Magnolo said, then immediately changed his words, "Maybe there is, I don't know, the secret society is very secretive."

Wu Heng paused for a moment to give the investigator time to record.

Then he continued, "What force does the other ring with a cat's head represent?"

Magnolo replied, "Cat and mouse."

Wu Heng looked at Xi Lagui, who also shook her head.

"What do you do?" Wu Heng asked.

Magnolo said carefully, "It is an organization under the Secret Order. It includes gangs, small chambers of commerce, and some state employees in less senior positions. It is called the Cat and Mouse Society."

Sounds a bit like the Association's Secret Whisperer.

They are distributed in all walks of life, providing intelligence, or offering help from the dark when necessary.

Wu Heng continued to ask, "What is your position in the Cat and Mouse Club?"

"I...I can mobilize a certain amount of power."

The status is not low.

"I've finished asking questions. Do you have anything else to ask?" Wu Heng looked at Xi Lagui.

Xi Lagui took a step forward, while Wu Heng stepped back a distance.

Magnolo immediately said, "Deacon Xilagui, I wanted to visit you when I arrived on the island, but time is a bit tight. I am willing to cooperate with the association. You must protect me. Wu Heng will definitely kill me."

Xi Lagui said lightly, "It depends on your performance."

"You say!"

"I just have one question. Tell me everything you know about the members of the Secret Order and the Cat and Mouse Society." Xi Lagui said.

Magnolo's eyes changed again, and he said, "Deacon Xilagui, these people are all in my mind. I can help you capture them and gain merit. Please keep me with you. I am willing to be your assistant."

Wu Heng flicked his fingers and swung the whip again.

This time, Magnolo was sure that the member's name could save him, and he didn't let go even though he cried out loudly.

Xi Lagui glanced at the other person, then turned around and walked out. "Okay, that's all I have to record. The rest is up to you."

Shi Yali and the investigator also followed him out.

Magnolo immediately shouted in panic: "Deacon, save me, Wu Heng will definitely kill me, I can help you."

There was no response from the corridor.

Xilagui took her people and left immediately.

……

In the room, only Wu Heng and the trapped ghost were left.

With a thought, Granda flew out of the body.

He looked at the ghost in the bone prison with anger and hatred in his eyes.

I hate this man to death.

Magnolo faced Granda again, his soul quickly retreated, his eyes dodging, at a loss.

Wu Heng asked directly: "Magnolo, why did you kill Granda? Now that things have come to this, tell me the answer like a man."

Grant didn't curse or react.

Just staring at the other person, waiting for his answer.

I have been waiting for the answer until now.

Magnoro was filled with fear, but facing 'Glenda' gave him hope to survive.

It's much better than facing someone like Wu Heng.

He floated forward for a while, with a sincere look on his face, "I was wrong, I don't know what confused my mind at that time, I actually did such a beastly thing.

"Glenda, I love you. Think about how I treated you. I was very considerate of you. I even wrote you a love poem. Have you forgotten that?"

"I know I was wrong, please let me go."

"We are husband and wife. I am willing to submit to you and Wu Heng and use my future time to repay my debt to you."

"I've always felt guilty since you died. I never found another woman."

"Glenda, I love your ..."
