What Is the Truth?

Click.

Qin Yiguan pushed the only book on that shelf.

The mechanism linked to it is an ancient mechanical system.

The entire room suddenly became dark.

Blue light emanated from inside the ceiling.

It illuminated the hidden 'particles' inside the room.

It was a kind of black, dust-like particle, drifting slowly, like smoke.

Beneath the outdated machinery lies astonishing technology.

The next moment.

The smoke gathered and formed, creating this abandoned research institute.

The scenery is exquisite, with every blade of grass and every tree depicted in minute detail.

The black grass and trees were still swaying gently in the wind.

Qin Yiguan narrowed his eyes. "This is a surveillance technology, through... dark matter reconstruction?"

Qin Yiguan reached out and gently rippled the air, magnifying the research institute within and locking the view onto the room where everyone was. The figures of Qin Yiguan, Jiu Zhengxuan, and the others could be clearly seen.

The current time is also displayed in the upper right corner.

Qin Yiguan swiped his finger, rewinding time, and the scene changed to the moment when Officer Wang entered.

Everyone gasped. "This can replay the scene! Doesn't that mean we can see the killer's face?!"

Jiu Zhengxuan looked tense and subconsciously took a step forward.

"Gentlemen."

But Qin Yiguan slowly spoke, "I have a habit when investigating cases: I don't like too many people around, especially those who are so fair they practically glow. Their presence alone will affect my rationality."

That's all.

Qin Yiguan slowly looked at Jiu Zhengxuan.

Anyone who steals my business deserves to die.

If Jiu Zhengxuan knew the real culprit, he would surely intervene with righteous indignation.

so.

Qin Yiguan slowly spoke, "Please, Captain Zheng Xuan, step out first."

After a pause, the young man smiled and said, "As for the real culprit, I'll tell you everything after I've finished my deductions."

"You!"

Jiu Zhengxuan was furious.

But then Officer Wang said, "Captain Zheng Xuan, don't worry. I've cooperated with Qin Yiguan many times, and I have complete faith in his character. Please cooperate and wait for the results."

Jiu Zhengxuan was helpless.

He slowly walked towards the door, but for some reason, he felt incredibly nervous.

Also kicked out were Jiu Zhengxuan's accompanying police officers, leaving only Officer Wang and Qin Yiguan at the scene!

In the picture.

Time begins to rewind.

We returned to the point in time before He Hongyuan's death.

The playback speed was slowed down by hundreds of times.

He Hongyuan was almost obsessively focused, constantly conducting research, taking notes, and reading books.

suddenly.

A plume of black smoke drifted into the frame, vaguely resembling a human figure.

It stood in the room and waved slightly. The plants seemed to turn into black smoke, growing wildly and then entangling He Hongyuan. A huge 'black smoke' leaf used its sharp teeth to cut off He Hongyuan's head!

His head was engulfed in the flowerpot by black smoke, which then brought in wooden strips to form a frame, securing He Hongyuan's body!

Qin Yiguan's Pupil trembled slightly at that moment.

This ability... it seems to be Black Calamity's!

That 'black smoke' is precisely the manifestation of [Gestalt Collapse]; it seems to be 'demonizing' those plants!

Could it be that villain, Black Calamity?

Is it muddying the waters? Is it taking revenge on me?

The next moment.

The black smoke condensed and turned into plants.

The human figure gradually became clearer!

Qin Yiguan slightly opened his eyes, zoomed in on the image, and looked at it carefully.

The face gradually became clear.

That face was so recognizable; just two minutes ago, Qin Yiguan was facing him directly!

Qin Yiguan was immediately startled, "This is... the Jiu Zhengxuan!"

There can be no mistake.

That face... it was Jiu Zhengxuan!

Why him?!

At this moment, Officer Wang was also extremely shocked.

At this moment, Jiu Zhengxuan in the scene transformed into black smoke and disappeared!

The entire process, without fast-forwarding, takes exactly 0.3 seconds!

And at this very moment.

The dark matter projection device seemed to have a defect; it emitted a burst of sparks and burned out completely.

Qin Yiguan frowned, then walked out of the room.

Jiu Zhengxuan asked anxiously, "Did you see the murderer's face?"

Qin Yiguan, however, quietly looked at the young man in the white suit in front of him.

for a long time.

Qin Yiguan suddenly asked, "We've been dealing with each other for so long, but I still don't know what your Reality Enhancement is?"

"I..."

Jiu Zhengxuan frowned, trying to keep his expression steady. "I have no need or reason to tell you, because sooner or later I will find evidence of your murder and then fight you!"

Qin Yiguan looked at him.

Jiu Zhengxuan maintained his righteous and upright expression.

Qin Yiguan then asked, "Is your father's ability the legendary ' Absolute Hit '? Besides physical objects, what else can he throw?"

Jiu Zhengxuan straightened his body. "There's even less need for me to tell you this."

The boy pondered for a moment, "To be honest, as your classmate, after seeing so much of what you've done, I'm still willing to believe you."

Jiu Zhengxuan frowned. "What do you mean?"

Qin Yiguan then asked, "Do you ever... for example, today, have you ever suddenly felt that you've lost some of your memories, or that your mind is foggy for a period of time, and you can't remember what you did?"

Jiu Zhengxuan looked at Qin Yiguan with disgust. "What nonsense are you spouting? What does this murder case have to do with anything? Could it be that you are the murderer in this case, and you're deliberately trying to change the subject!"

Qin Yiguan exhaled slightly.

This incident seems quite complicated!

That murderer just now was clearly Jiu Zhengxuan!

Black Calamity once said that Jiu Zhengxuan's ability was similar to his!

However you look at it from any angle, Jiu Zhengxuan had absolutely no motive to kill, especially not with such a cruel method!

The only possibility is that Jiu Zhengxuan was helping his father commit the crime.

Assuming this is the case, why would Lu Zun kill a 'washed-up' scientist?

As for how Lu Zun did it...

To be honest, although I've met Lu Zun once...

However, Qin Yiguan had only seen Lu Zun's abilities in his 'illusions'.

Through the recent test, when Qin Yiguan described Lu Zun's ability as ' Absolute Hit ', Jiu Zhengxuan's Pupil constricted slightly, proving that he had guessed correctly.

The previous split-brain man, Luo Canlie, was theoretically unable to control Lu Zun because his Fusion Rate was lower than Lu Zun's.

But why didn't Luo Canlie know about this?

It was as if he was being controlled in reverse!

Human memories can already be stored in archives, so... could Lu Zun also use 'memories' as weapons to project them into other people's minds?

Jiu Zhengxuan, this impulsive, naive, and righteous little messenger... could it be that Lu Zun is treating him like a 'puppet'?

now.

Qin Yiguan suddenly looked at Jiu Zhengxuan, "I'll give you one more day."

Jiu Zhengxuan was taken aback. "What are you talking about?"

Qin Yiguan slowly said, "If I can't find out the truth within a day, then I'd rather kill ten thousand innocent people than let one guilty person go free. So... I have no choice but to kill you, because He Hongyuan shouldn't die, and also because the murderer stole my business!"

Jiu Zhengxuan roared in fury, "What nonsense are you spouting! Your own logic is flawed! What gives you the right to target me? Tell me, you just saw the murderer, so who is the murderer?!"

Qin Yiguan shook his head. "I won't tell you."

"What?"

Jiu Zhengxuan's eyes widened. "You just made a promise to tell me everything!"

Qin Yiguan shook his head again, "I didn't say that."

"What?"

Jiu Zhengxuan was utterly exasperated. "How can you have so little integrity?!"

Qin Yiguan slowly raised his head, "What the hell is integrity?"
