Hu Jing followed Su Fei's instructions and took the lead in asking questions with a serious tone.
"Hu Laosan, have you had any contact with demons recently?"
Hu Laosan heard this, with a look of fear on his face, and said with a grin.
"Yes, of course there is. Last night, I was farming in the spiritual field in the north of the village. I was targeted by the Jackal Demon and almost got eaten by it. Thanks to Centurion Su and all the Demon Suppression Bureau adults, I arrived in time and saved my life. My back is still hurting now."
As he spoke, he subconsciously touched the wound on his back. His eyes were full of fear, and there was no trace of disguise.
Qiu Xu then asked the second sentence.
"Then have you ever colluded with a demon?"
"No, absolutely not."
Hu Laosan shook his head quickly, his tone was firm, and his face was full of eagerness.
"I Hu Laosan hate those monsters so much. They killed several villagers in our village and almost killed me. How could I collude with them?"
Su Fei watched Hu Laosan throughout, and God-tier Insight Technique clearly captured the subtle expressions on his face and his emotions.
Fear, gratitude, eagerness, every emotion is extremely real, without the slightest sign of lying. His breathing is steady, his eyes are firm, and it is obvious that what he said is true.
"Okay, you can go down now. Please pay attention to safety in the future and don't stay alone in the spiritual field at night."
Su Fei waved his hand and softened his tone a bit.
Hu Laosan thanked her quickly, turned around and left the yard with relief.
Immediately afterwards, the second and third villagers were brought in one after another. Hu Jing and Qiu Xu asked questions one by one according to the fixed two sentences. Su Fei relied on God-tier Insight Technique to carefully distinguish the authenticity of each person. Some villagers looked calm when answering, their eyes were magnanimous, and they obviously had a clear conscience.
Some villagers dodge their eyes slightly because they are nervous, but there is no sign of lying. They are simply afraid of being suspected.
Some villagers thought of their relatives and friends who had been killed by demons, with sadness and anger on their faces, and they firmly denied colluding with demons.
Time passed little by little, from early morning to afternoon, a full half of the day passed.
Hu Family Village All villagers over ten years old were questioned. But Su Fei never found anything unusual.
His God-tier Insight Technique found no signs of lying in any of the villagers. Everyone's answers were frank and truthful. Even if they were a little nervous, it was only due to the fear of being suspected, rather than inner guilt and panic.
Face this fruitless outcome.
Su Fei sat on the stone bench, frowning tightly, tapping his fingers lightly on the stone table, with a hint of headache on his face, and murmured to himself.
"What's going on? All the villagers have asked, and no one has lied. Could it be that my judgment was wrong?"
"But how can we explain those previous doubts? How could these demons accurately grasp the timing of our departure?"
Su Fei's doubts became deeper and deeper, and he even began to wonder if he was too arbitrary and mistook the coincidence for a mole.
Hu Jing and Qiu Xu also looked puzzled. They looked at each other and saw confusion in each other's eyes.
They also observed the expressions of the villagers throughout the process, and found nothing unusual. Could it be that Hu Family Village really has no insider?
Is everything just a coincidence?
At this moment, Qiu Xu seemed to suddenly remember something and said something out of nowhere.
"Centurion, did we miss someone? All the villagers have asked, but there is also the village chief Hu Guangnian, we didn't ask him."
After the words fell, Su Fei was suddenly startled, and a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.
Yes, he was focused on investigating the villagers, but he neglected the village chief Hu Guangnian who was always by his side and responsible for gathering the villagers.
As the village chief, Hu Guangnian is in charge of all affairs of Hu Family Village. He knows the movements of the villagers best and may also collude with the demons secretly to pass on the news.
Before, he only thought that Hu Guangnian was honest and honest, and he was very grateful to Demon Suppression Guard, so he had never doubted him. But now that he thought about it, there was indeed something fishy about Hu Guangnian.
When Demon Suppression Guard was stationed, he was always by his side and knew Demon Suppression Guard's deployment well.
Yesterday, Demon Suppression Guard pretended to leave, which was also the first time he summoned the villagers. Although he seemed enthusiastic, he might also be secretly sending a message to the demon to inform the villagers of their movements.
Su Fei A sharp light suddenly flashed in his eyes, his brows relaxed, and he nodded slowly.
"Qiu Xu You are right, we were negligent and we did miss Hu Guangnian."
After speaking, he gave instructions to Demon Suppression Guard who was guarding the entrance of the hospital.
"Go and bring Hu Family Village, the village chief Hu Guangnian, over for questioning!"
"Yes, I will obey."
Demon Suppression Guard at the entrance of the hospital immediately responded.
Not long after, Demon Suppression Guard led Hu Guangnian into the yard.
Hu Guangnian walked up quickly as soon as he entered the door, with an eager smile on his face and a familiar tone as if he and Su Fei were old friends.
"Oh Centurion Su, you are out of sight now! Just ask the villagers, why do I, the village chief, have to ask? The villagers outside are still waiting, and I have to go out and appease them to prevent them from thinking wildly."
As he spoke, he rubbed his hands together. In his opinion, since he was the village chief of Hu Family Village, and he cooperated with Demon Suppression Guard's actions throughout the process, Su Fei would not doubt him anyway. This interview was just a formality.
Faced with Hu Guangnian's remarks, Su Fei's face did not show any emotion at all, but instead evoked a faint smile.
"Village Chief Hu Don't worry, it's just routine Su. After asking these two questions, you can go back to appease the villagers. It won't waste much of your time."
After saying that, he turned to look at Qiu Xu beside him and raised his chin.
"Qiu Xu, start asking questions."
"Yes, Centurion."
Qiu Xu stood up in response, his expression instantly became serious, he stared at Hu Guangnian and asked word by word.
"Hu Guangnian, have you had any contact with demons recently?"
The moment he heard these words, the smile on Hu Guangnian's face froze suddenly, his eyes flickered slightly, and his smile faded a bit, but in just a moment, he returned to normal.
Hu Guangnian waved his hand and said in a frank tone.
"No, how is that possible? Centurion Su, you are joking. As the village chief of Hu Family Village, I only want to protect the villagers. I am always busy and concerned about the safety of the villagers. How could I possibly come into contact with those harmful demons? Besides, those demons have killed people in our village. I hate them so much, so how dare I get involved with them."
Hu Guangnian spoke vividly, and even showed a bit of anger, as if he really hated the monster to the core.
But the subtle change in expression on his face did not escape Su Fei's eyes at all.
