68: Mu Ze opened his mouth

"Hmph, stubborn as a mule. Don't let me find out you're lying, or you'll be in for it."

Yan Xiaoling grew angry seeing Mu Ze's indifferent attitude.

If the Captain hadn't insisted on not acting recklessly until the very end, she would have dealt with him long ago.

"Hey, beautiful officer, I'm just a law-abiding citizen. It's no use getting angry; I really just picked that thing up by accident."

Mu Ze looked at Yan Xiaoling and smiled. When he first saw this beautiful officer, he had already made up his mind that once he got out, he would spend whatever amount of money necessary to get his hands on her.

With his vast experience, he didn't even need to look to know she was still a virgin. Moreover, she had such a distinct personality; he loved breaking in women like her.

After Mu Yaner's parents died, Mu Ze took over their company and several residential compounds they had left behind.

Mu Yaner didn't try to fight for those at all, keeping only one compound to collect rent, intending to live a peaceful life forever.

But she was her parents' daughter after all, and she hadn't married out yet. She naturally had a share of the inheritance left by her parents. That was why Mu Ze planned to have Mu Yaner die, so he could inherit all the property.

To achieve his goal, he paid a high-level expert to take action. The doll statue was given to him by that expert. When he killed Mu Yaner's parents a few years ago, it was also that expert who took action for money.

Mu Ze didn't know what was inside the statue, but as long as he achieved his goal, he didn't care about anything else.

"Let me ask you, who gave you the doll statue? Where did they give it to you? How do you contact them?"

Xiao Xing's eyes flashed with a sharp glint as he questioned Mu Ze.

When he saw the man, he noticed Mu Ze's guilty conscience; both his voice and body were trembling slightly.

An average person wouldn't notice this, but his eyes saw it very clearly. However, he still needed to use an Illusion to understand the specific details.

"The statue... I got it by the Tianshui River. I placed the order on the Black Net."

After falling into the Illusion, Mu Ze paused for a moment before speaking slowly.

Although his eyes were somewhat dull, on the surface, he didn't look much different.

Hearing Mu Ze's words, Liu Guo and the others looked delighted; it seemed there was a Breakthrough in the case.

"Why did you want to harm Mu Yaner?"

Xiao Xing spoke again. Since he was here to help, he would resolve everything to avoid future troubles.

Under his questioning, Mu Ze quickly confessed everything.

He had already learned everything from the Illusion—it was Mu Ze who paid someone to bring various items to murder Mu Yaner's family.

However, he still needed Mu Ze to say it out loud, as his words would become evidence of the crime.

With both witnesses and physical evidence, Mu Ze could no longer escape the sanctions of the law. As for the people on the Black Net, whether the police could catch them was unknown.

According to Xiao Xing's understanding, even if you paid to place an order on the Black Net, after someone accepted it, you still had to wait quite a while. Then, they would give you a location to pick it up yourself.

The drop-off time was uncertain, and the locations were always places without surveillance cameras, making it very difficult to track who left the items.

Seeing Mu Ze confess everything, Yan Xiaoling originally intended to blow up at him, but Xiao Xing directly covered her mouth and pulled her outside. Only then did her anger subside a bit.

"Mr. Xiao, thank you for your trouble this time. I will apply for some funds as a reward and have them sent to you later."

After coming out, Liu Guo spoke politely to Xiao Xing.

Although they hadn't found the real culprit of the infant murder case yet, they had found the killer in a serial murder case. This counted as helping them solve a homicide, so they naturally had to thank Xiao Xing.

"No need, this is also Sister Yaner's business..."

Xiao Xing waved his hand to decline.

He still had quite a lot of gold coins in his backpack, which could be sold for a lot of money later, so he wasn't very interested in money right now.

Once he got online, he planned to sell these gold coins so that Dragon Country players could have gold to buy equipment and guild bases in the early stage.

In this life, he wanted to accelerate the growth of Dragon Country players to deal with the invasions from various countries.

In his previous life, the Rank and equipment of those foreign players were generally higher than those of Dragon Country players, especially in countries like the USA, Eagle Country, and Japan.

The classes on their side were more early-stage oriented.

They could develop very quickly in the early stage, while almost all classes in Dragon Country belonged to the Late Stage type, so their early-stage strength was slightly lower than those countries.

It was roughly like League of Legends; some heroes are early-game heroes, while others are late-game heroes. Late-game heroes generally can't beat early-game heroes in the early stage.

In the game in his previous life, Dragon Country was constantly attacked by various countries, as if they wanted to kill all Dragon Country players back to Rank 0.

During the Middle Stage of the game, Japan, Cold Country, and the USA began to send ships over one after another to provoke them.

Many towns on the coastline were seized by them, and then they began to attack the main cities. A large number of Dragon Country players leveling up outside were killed.

Later, various guilds in Dragon Country began to gather a large number of people to hunt these foreign players in the wild. After a period of wilderness warfare, those foreign players were finally wiped out.

Because after being killed, they had to return to temporary respawn points on their ships, which weren't as close as those of the Dragon Country players. Only then did they finally leave.

After this incident, the Super Guilds of Dragon Country began to establish cities along the coastline one after another.

On one hand, it was to resist foreign players; on the other hand, the coastal resources were abundant, with many leveling spots and various Ore veins.

Afterward, players from various countries began to unite and constantly attack the cities on the coastline. If they hadn't been far from their home soil and only able to come by ship, Dragon Country players might not have been able to withstand them.

Since Xiao Xing had returned, in this life, it would only be Dragon Country players stomping on other countries; he would never let them come and provoke again.

"Stop talking nonsense, I'll bring the reward to you later."

Seeing Xiao Xing refuse the reward, Yan Xiaoling gave him a fierce glare.

After the events of that day, she had used some means to check Xiao Xing's family situation.

She knew Xiao Xing was just a fired loser currently renting a room in Xingfu Residential Compound, an unemployed vagrant who spent all day playing games, and was not financially well-off at all.

"Alright."

Seeing the tigress show her authority, Xiao Xing immediately shut his mouth.

A good man doesn't fight with a woman, and he didn't want to explain too much. If they wanted to give him a reward, it wouldn't hurt him.

Seeing Xiao Xing being completely tamed by the little witch, Liu Guo sighed helplessly and then took Mu Yaner over to explain some things, because she would be the plaintiff when the case went to court.

"By the way, what class do you play? And what Rank are you? Do you need me to carry you? This lady is very strong; you definitely aren't as high a Rank as me."

Seeing the others leave, Yan Xiaoling started chattering away again, even claiming she was very powerful.
