Inheriting A Divine Cultivation Clan At The Start, All My Juniors Are Empresses

Chapter 371: Chapter 201: Just Different Stances! Or Perhaps the Truth? (Large Chapter, Seeking Protection)_6

”It is speculated that people from the Celestial Capital Department know some things about Ling Huzhong, but due to exclusion or other reasons, they are unwilling to disclose the situation to an outsider like you, merely claiming ignorance.”

After leaving the Star Observatory, the Celestial Capital Department is its own entity, separate from the Star Observatory. Typically, people won’t associate themselves with the Observatory afterward.

Song Yinghan nodded like a pecking chick, her demeanor akin to that of a big sister, exuding immense tenderness and obedience, confirming:

”I’ve been to the Celestial Capital Department before, the one in Canglan City, which feels even more like the Celestial Capital Department than the one in Jiangzhou City. The people inside are relatively arrogant. Even when I’ve been there, they still didn’t have much intention of talking.”

”Hmm.”

Yuchi’s gaze fell upon the pile of files in front of him, he continued, ”Let’s set aside the first speculation for now, and let’s look at the second point.”

Song Yinghan immediately listened as Yuchi spoke.

Yuchi straightforwardly clarified:

”Ling Huzhong’s disappearance can essentially be seen as a form of conflict with others. Conflict invariably stems from only two factors: simply emotional impulsiveness or interests.”

”Let’s first talk about emotional impulsiveness. Suppose Ling Huzhong and another person had a dispute due to some argument, creating a conflict between them. As a person from the Celestial Capital Department, could Ling Huzhong really suffer a downfall just because of this? Merely due to a verbal disagreement, the other party retaliated against Ling Huzhong from the Celestial Capital Department? Doesn’t that seem excessively bold on the other party’s part?”

”A more reasonable explanation would be that it’s driven by interests.”

”Whether intentionally or unintentionally, Ling Huzhong has encroached upon others’ interests. With interests at stake, even though Ling Huzhong is from the Celestial Capital Department, and even though observers from the Star Observatory would come to investigate after his disappearance, they feel compelled to act like this. Otherwise, something even more terrifying than the Star Observatory would happen.”

”So, the second speculation emerges.”

”What has he done that led others to make him disappear from this world?”

Events become easy to unravel; the root is unchanging. Many such murder cases boil down to either interests, emotions, or a fundamental psychological issue. As an observer from the Star Observatory, Ling Huzhong most certainly wouldn’t have major personal flaws; otherwise, he wouldn’t have been assigned to a major city like Canglan City.

Considering it’s logically impossible, emotions also seem improbable, the conclusion is interests. So, what exactly did he do that contravened others’ interests?

”Didn’t he send a letter back to the Star Observatory? Isn’t the letter supposed to specify what he’s been working on recently?”

”What has he been working on?”

After Yuchi finished speaking, he looked at Song Yinghan, who stared blankly at him.

It’s astonishingly calm; setting aside the event itself, beginning with simple logic and then methodically checking each aspect to avoid unnecessary detours. It seems so simple in retrospect, yet can one really maintain this level of calm in such circumstances? No wonder he’s able to pull out demons from Jiangzhou City.

Quite impressive!

”The seriousness in his speech truly makes him seem very earnest!” Song Yinghan promptly rummaged through the pile of files before her and fetched three letters.

Upon opening the three letters, they contained a wealth of detailed information. There’s no need to delve into the specifics; after reading through them, Yuchi finally discerned what this fellow was working on.

”Investigating missing persons cases.”

Yes, this fellow is actually investigating missing persons cases in Canglan City.

It was when he first arrived in Canglan City, back when he was still brimming with enthusiasm.

While out on business, he happened to meet a woman whose child had disappeared. The woman, noting his attire, immediately knelt to beg him for help, prompting him to start investigating the child’s disappearance.

”It’s understandable; freshly graduated from the Star Observatory, one would naturally be fueled with passion, still aspiring to be a good individual.”
