I Can Infinitely Synthesize Transcendent Genes

Chapter 424: [341] Suspect in the Xu Tian Case! Playing with Judgement Place (Seeking Monthly Tickets and Recommendations)_1
 

Sunday.

In the early morning, the entire Da Peng City was shrouded in fog.

Pei Jinye had been exercising indoors for half an hour. With the boost of a hundredfold talent, his cultivation was now going smoother than before.

He swiped out the attribute panel.

[Vitality Value]: 197-197;

[Stamina]: 197-197;

[Psychic Power]: 199-199;

In the blink of an eye, the upper limits of his attribute points had increased a few notches.

Reaching two hundred attribute points was just around the corner.

At nine in the morning, Pei Jinye received a very formal investigation notice from the Investigation Team.

“You are hereby notified to arrive at the Investigation Team’s Base at nine thirty in the morning to undergo the investigation… If you dare leave Da Peng City, our side will take the necessary measures to issue a warrant for your arrest. Pei Jinye, don’t make things difficult for me.”

It was a woman’s voice.

Not the male new chief that Zhou Ye had notified, it was someone else.

But this voice was somewhat unfamiliar… was she new?

Pei Jinye’s gaze was calm, “And you are?”

“What are you trying to do? Threaten me?” the young woman’s voice shot up immediately.

“Sorry to disappoint, but you’ve made me laugh.”

Pei Jinye’s unconcealed demeanor left the young woman rather annoyed.

“Pei Jinye, I won’t waste words with you, just hurry up and come over.”

“What’s the rush? I ought to confirm your identity first, right?” Pei Jinye said in a bland tone, “Even if you are legit, you notify me last minute to come over for an investigation—what’s the investigation for? I have the right to question your legitimacy.”

“What do you mean even if it’s legit? My identity is definitely real!” the young woman said coldly: “Pei Jinye, you going to the Western Continent on your own is a violation of the code of conduct for public servants, and just for that, even the lightest punishment could be stripping you of your role!

I know you have not formally taken office yet, and you are recommended by a college, but I can tell you.

Once this stain is confirmed, do you still think you can get into Wu University? Wait and see if any university in Central State would dare accept you then.

Going to the Western Continent on your own, causing such a huge mess, do you think anyone is willing to take such risk for you?

I really don’t know whether to say you’re too impetuous due to your youth, or just too foolish. You provoke trouble everywhere, making enemies at every turn. It’s really too easy for others to deal with you.”

The young woman said a bunch of things that, in Pei Jinye’s view, were a waste of breath.

Just after she finished speaking, she was cut short by Pei Jinye’s terse question, “What’s your name?” which made her halt in her tracks.

Apparently, the woman was somewhat embarrassed and angry; the fluctuation in her voice was palpable even through the phone.

The woman took a deep breath and said word by word, “I’m Wu Muyu!”

“Your Wu Family sure has a long reach, stretching your hand over three hundred kilometers to Da Peng City—did your transcendent ancestor happen to be a long-armed monkey?” Pei Jinye narrowed his gaze.

“Stop talking nonsense!” Wu Muyu felt it was outrageous; this time, the investigation targeting Pei Jinye was instigated by her family, otherwise, she would not have been transferred to this insignificant place.

Pei Jinye was somewhat amused.

The Wu Family, now in heated conflict with the Jiang family, still hadn’t forgotten to cause trouble for him.

But when had his public identity ever provoked the Wu Family?

Forget it.

Since they had all come, let them all stay.

…

…

Investigation Team’s Base.

Zhou Ye and Brother Bi were supposed to have a day off today, but they still came to the base.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

They were currently stationed outside the interrogation building.

“Who’s behind this?” Brother Bi stood under a tree, gazing at the building, and suddenly took a drag on his cigarette.

He hadn’t expected Pei Jinye to be investigated.

It had been so long since his return, and suddenly there was this investigation—it didn’t take much thought to know that someone was trying to get at Pei Jinye.

“Martial Family of Nan Du,” Zhou Ye replied in a low voice, glanced around, and then said, “This time, the person from the Wu Family coming to replace Chief Lin was unexpected for many. It’s someone who moved through the connections in the Central Continent headquarters, otherwise they wouldn’t just be parachuted in. Supposedly they weren’t satisfied with how our city hall handled that night’s incident.”

“That night’s incident?” Bi Brother blinked in confusion.

Zhou Ye hurriedly said, “The night the Jiang family was about to go to war with the Wu Family, our Governor enforced the law impartially, which angered the other party, and now they’re directly parachuted in to show the Wu Family’s power.”

“But what does this have to do with Little Pei?” Brother Bi frowned, “The Jiang family’s debt should be paid by the Jiang family. Little Pei went with Chief Lin to the Gongsun Family in the Western Continent, not to their Wu Family. It can’t be that the new official wants to light his first fire under Little Pei, can it?”

“That seems to be the gist. This parachuted-in person is called Wu Zhuofei, the second son from the main branch of the Wu Family, only in his thirties, about the same age as you, Brother Bi. Seven years ago, he served in Nan Du City’s Night Patrol Department, and three years ago, he was transferred to a deputy team position in the Nan Du Investigation Team. It was said he was supposed to take up a position at the Central Continent Headquarters, but unexpectedly, he got parachuted here.”

Brother Bi didn’t say a word, stubbed out his cigarette in the trash can, and then strode forward.

“If he’s going to start a fire like this, few people will accept him.”

“What are you doing? Don’t be rash.”

“I’m not going to do a damn thing. I’m going to get some help.”

“Help from who?”

…

…

In the interrogation room.

Pei Jinye sat in the cold chair, with three people staring at him coldly. One of them tried to handcuff him, but Pei Jinye raised his hand to dodge, looking unflinchingly and asking, “What’s this supposed to mean?”

“What do you think it means? Do you know where this is?” A young man rebuked coldly. “Once you’re in here, no matter who you were before, you’d better behave! Don’t cause trouble, got it?”

Pei Jinye looked up at him.

The young man glared back with a cold face and tossed the handcuffs in front of him, “Cuff yourself, and don’t make me do it for you!”

“The people from the Wu Family have just arrived, and you guys can’t wait to establish ownership. Fine, I’ll make you show your devotion more earnestly.”

And with that.

The steel table in front of Pei Jinye directly broke in half.

He stood up and stepped out.

Grabbing a table leg, he immediately swung it at the leg bones of the person in front of him.

“Crack!”

“Aah!”

A scream filled the room.

The other two were dumbfounded.

“Pei Jinye, you!!!”

As another one came forward, intending to take action, he was immediately sent flying by the table leg in Pei Jinye’s hand, slamming hard against the wall.

In the span of a breath.

Two out of the three were down.

Pei Jinye picked up the bloody table leg, pointed it at the remaining young man and asked, “Ever heard of a saying?”

“What, what?”

“Stand up straight when you’re getting hit.”

“Huh?”

The person was taken aback for a moment, and the next second, was sent flying by a leg of the table.

…

…

Office of the Team Captain of 301 Seventh Team.

Wu Muyu was listening to something her second brother was saying when suddenly the door was pushed open from the outside, and before she could voice her reprimand, a look of surprise crossed her face as she recognized the person entering.

“You!”

She wanted to ask Pei Jinye, weren’t you in the middle of an interrogation?

And subconsciously thought the interrogation had ended.

Confused, Pei Jinye strode in and walked directly toward her.

For some reason, Wu Muyu’s heart suddenly raced, perceiving Pei Jinye as an unstoppable beast, causing her hair to stand on end involuntarily.

“Pei Jinye?” the middle-aged man in the captain’s seat said sharply, “If I remember correctly, you should be in the interrogation room. What, are you openly trying to provoke the Investigation Team?”

“To deal with illegality through interrogation, did you learn your language at the foot of a table?” Pei Jinye, acting as if he were in his own backyard, ignored the gaze of Wu Zhuofei and Wu Muyu, “With your level, you can’t even sign an assistance letter, tell me, what gives you the confidence?”

“Pei Jinye, don’t you get too arrogant!” Wu Muyu couldn’t help but scold.

Pei Jinye didn’t even glance at her as if he completely didn’t care.

At that moment, the landline on Wu Zhuofei’s desk rang, and after picking it up, he slammed the desk in a fury, “Pei Jinye, you’ve got some nerve! How dare you assault an assistant investigator, you think I can’t lock you up right now?”

“I don’t believe you can.”

Pei Jinye’s simple three words slapped across Wu Zhuofei’s face like a direct hit.

He was seething with rage.

Even more, he wondered where this brat was getting his confidence without Lin Xiawei’s protection.

“Someone!”

Wu Zhuofei shouted angrily.

But no one appeared at the door.

“What exactly have you done?” Wu Zhuofei’s face changed slightly.

Pei Jinye slowly stood up: “I don’t care what the Wu family is up to in Da Peng City, but don’t mess with me. This is your last warning—”

He raised his hand.

Wu Zhuofei’s face changed slightly, and hurriedly shielded himself with his arms, but still crashed hard against the wooden cabinet behind him, making papers fly and the sickening sound of the twisting wood reverberate in the room.

Pei Jinye turned and left, dropping a sentence behind him.

“You’re too weak.”

Wu Muyu watched, wide-eyed, as Pei Jinye left before her very eyes.

Her eyes were filled with disbelief.

If the words Pei Jinye had spoken on the phone before were merely irksome,

then right now, the irritation that had been building was completely blown away by his nonchalant yet immensely deterring action, replaced with shock.

She turned her head to look.

From beginning to end, Wu Zhuofei hadn’t said anything about keeping Pei Jinye behind.

Only after Pei Jinye was completely out of sight did Wu Zhuofei groan softly, unable to calm the turbulent vitality within him, and blood trickled from the corner of his mouth.

“Second brother.” Wu Muyu was completely shocked to see this.

Wu Zhuofei lifted his hand with a wry smile: “I underestimated him.”

He wiped the corner of his mouth and looked at the blood on his palm.

While he was deep in thought, Wu Muyu asked, “What’s wrong, second brother?”

“It’s nothing. Don’t worry about Pei Jinye’s matter,” Wu Zhuofei shook his head.

After Wu Muyu left, he took out another secret mobile phone from the drawer.

Before dialing, he pulled out an ability-testing gemstone from his pocket.

After checking the information, he finally dialed a mysterious number.

“It’s me… I just clashed with him, and I’m afraid we’ve got the wrong person. He’s not deeply involved with the Xu Tian case, I’ll send you the data now… Yes, he’s indeed Psychic Class, but he’s probably Third Rank… Okay, I understand. I won’t get involved with the Jiang family matter…”

After hanging up the phone.

Wu Zhuofei was lost in his thoughts.

“This guy is growing too fast… if he really killed Xu Tian, it seems possible for him to have pulled it off, but the detector doesn’t lie.”

He looked at the detector in his hand, which indicated that the spiritual energy from Xu Tian’s death had not been present on Pei Jinye.

In front of the suspect list, Wu Zhuofei crossed out Pei Jinye’s name.

As he did all of this, a pair of silent eyes quietly retracted.

…

…

The avatar swaggered out of the Investigation Team’s Base, and when unobserved, turned into a wisp of black mist and directly merged into Pei Jinye’s body.

On the attribute panel, the vitality spent was hardly worth mentioning.

Pei Jinye was surprised to find that he actually managed to discern some deceit.

This Wu Zhuofei indeed had an issue.

“The Xu Tian case…”

Pei Jinye hadn’t expected the Wu family to be involved with Xu Tian.

However, it seemed the Judgement Place still bore a grudge over Xu Tian’s death from years ago.

But it was also understandable.

The people from the Judgement Place who were sent to Da Peng City, except for the last man and woman sent for the investigation, nearly all died.

Such casualties being taken seriously internally was no surprise.

“The Xu Tian case…”

Pei Jinye curled his lips.

“Xu Tian keeps being exploited even in death, such bad luck.”

He could tell that under the guise of the Xu Tian case, they were actually after the woman named Yang Qingdan.

Yang’s status within the Judgement Place surely wasn’t low.

Back then, Pei Jinye was already aware of the quiet investigation ordered by the Yang family.

Now they sent people again to investigate, which surprised him not at all.

The mobile phone vibrated briefly.

Pei Jinye looked up slightly.

“Old Thief Chang finally deigned to show up!”
