157 Using Violence Against Violence
Ning Shi put the diary back into the drawer.
He didn’t take the diary away and handed it over to the Investigation Department as evidence.
Because he knew that Yan Guangxun was only 16 years old and was not an adult yet.
According to Yunmeng Kingdom’s laws, there was no death penalty for minors. Even if Yan Guangxun was arrested, he would at most be sent to jail.
With the Yan family’s deep background, Yan Guangxun would perform well in prison, get a lighter sentence, and get out of prison early.
In this way, Yan Guangxun’s crimes would not be punished at all.
Since Yan Guangxun liked to imitate an evil spirit assassin to kill people, Ning Shi would let him do as he wished and let him experience the pain of being killed by an evil spirit assassin.
After thinking through everything, Ning Shi first returned to the hall and slashed the unconscious Butler Wu to death.
Looking at the contents of Yan Guangxun’s diary, Butler Wu was not a good person either.
Yan Guangxun also had his reasons for instigating him to kill.
Someone like Butler Wu, who had been struggling to survive in a dark environment overseas, could easily develop the concept of the weak being eaten by the strong. He didn’t care about human lives and kindness at all.
It would be best if he was dead.
Ning Shi left the villa, maintained his evil spirit assassin form, and went to the First Awakener School.
The inter-school competition in Donglin City had ended, and there were no more incidents of evil spirits killing people.
Originally, the evil spirit assassins had killed the students to take advantage of the popularity of the competition. Now that the competition was over, the officials believed that the possibility of the evil spirit assassins targeting the students again was low.
They withdrew the military powerhouses, leaving only a portion of the Investigation Department’s staff to patrol the campus.
Ning Shi knew that the range of the evil spirit detector was 20 meters. He avoided the personnel wearing the evil spirit detector and found Yan Guangxun.
At this moment, Yan Guangxun was sitting on the steps of the sports field, hugging a female student with a cold temperament, talking and laughing.
Due to the high intensity of training for the awakeners, they were easily nervous. Thus, the Awakener Schools generally did not prohibit students from dating.
“Leng Shuang, are you free tonight? There’s a private movie theater at my place, do you want to watch a movie there?
“The latest movie, ‘The World Boundary Battle’, is said to be very interesting. There is a lot of knowledge about the characteristics of various insects in the movie, and the battle scenes are also from real battles at the border.
“Not only can we enjoy the exciting scenes and plot, but we can also learn a lot of knowledge, including combat skills.”
Leng Shuang was tall and had delicate facial features. She was born with a cold feeling and looked difficult to get along with. She was just a simple female classmate. She had a good impression of Yan Guangxun from the beginning.
Thinking of Yan Guangxun’s failure to win first place today and only getting second place, he must be in a bad mood, so she agreed.
Yan Guangxun’s eyes lit up. This was his usual method.
At this moment, many students were exercising on the field. Yan Guangxun was the school’s celebrity student, and Leng Shuang was a beautiful girl. The two of them sat on the steps affectionately, attracting the attention of the students.
This was the effect Ning Shi wanted.
He no longer hesitated. Using his scimitar as a long blade, he quickly swung it.
Slash!
Blood splattered everywhere, and his limbs were dismembered. Ning Shi only used one knife to cut off Yan Guangxun’s head.
“Ah!”
“The evil spirit is killing people!”
When the surrounding students saw this scene, they screamed in horror and fled in all directions.
The field was suddenly in a state of chaos, alarming the inspection staff who were patrolling the school. Wearing an evil spirit detector, Consultant Zhou rushed into the field and quickly sensed Ning Shi’s existence.
Ning Shi deliberately waited in the same place for a while. When he saw that Consultant Zhou and several other people wearing detectors had discovered him, he jumped and fled the scene.
Everyone had seen that Yan Guangxun had been killed by an evil spirit assassin. Even if Yan Guangxun’s uncle, Yan Zhensheng, came to the country to investigate, he would not be able to find any flaws on the surface.
Since evil spirits were invisible, no one had seen them before. Even if they used their detectors, they could only sense red and green dots of light. Without a specific target, shapeshifters couldn’t turn into evil spirits.
Therefore, no one would suspect that someone could transform into an evil spirit.
This was the effect that Ning Shi wanted. He could kill people and not be afraid of Yan Zhensheng’s revenge, but he did not want to affect the country’s policy of uniting overseas Yunmeng nationals because of Yan Guangxun, this scum.
As for killing, cooking, and cutting people into pieces like Yan Guangxun or the evil spirit assassin, Ning Shi couldn’t do such a perverted thing.
Not long after Yan Guangxun’s death, the unconscious servants in No. 23 Jade Dragon Court woke up one by one. Seeing Butler Wu’s head cut off, the servants immediately called the police.
The Investigation Department rushed to the scene and began to search the villa. They finally found Yan Guangxun’s diary.
Zhu Daniu held the diary and looked at Butler Wu’s corpse. A chill ran down his spine.
After a while, he received a report from his subordinate that Yan Guangxun had been killed by an evil spirit assassin at school.
Zhu Daniu, who knew the whole story, instantly shivered. He could be considered to have seen Consultant Ning’s ruthless means.
Although he didn’t know how Consultant Ning had disguised Yan Guangxun’s death as an evil spirit, he had made up his mind that he would never tell anyone about Yan Guangxun.
After settling a crime, Ning Shi returned to his school.
The 10 students in the school team had packed their luggage and were ready to take the plane to Central City under the guidance of their teacher.
Due to the case in Donglin City, the National inter-school tournament had been postponed, so the schedule was rather tight.
The first competition would begin the day after tomorrow, so Luo Yao and the others had to go there first and settle down a day in advance to familiarize themselves with the venue and traffic.
Ning Shi was about to go with them, but he saw an acquaintance at school, Hu Changjun, the old chief of the Special Affairs Department.
Hu Changjun was very efficient in his work. After seeing Ning Shi, he directly handed an alloy safe to Ning Shi and said, “There’s something you want in there. We’ll take back the 3000 merit points you were awarded.
“However, you’ve killed two evil spirits, found the name list of evil spirits’ missionaries, and destroyed their strongholds. The officials will reward you with a combined reward of 5000 merit points!”
Hearing Hu Changjun’s words, Ning Shi was very surprised. He said, “It’s just killing an evil spirit. How can there be so many merit points?”
In the past, 5000 merit points could be exchanged for an S-level spiritual crystal.
Hu Changjun laughed and patted Ning Shi’s shoulder, saying, “Xiao Ning, although I had high hopes for you before, I didn’t expect you to do so well.
“Not only are the school’s teaching results impressive, but they had also made outstanding achievements.
“Whether it’s the Evil Spirit using the main family to produce and sell Exhilarating Coke, the evil spirits using their stealth ability to kill students, or the evil spirit insects living in the underground construction management department, all of these are unbearable losses for the country.
“Now that we’ve confirmed that the evil spirit is the spiritual disaster and that it’s the most powerful of the three disasters, we can’t ignore it no matter how much importance we place on it. As such, the medal points awarded will be very high.
“Don’t worry, Hao Meng’s invention of the evil spirit detector can be said to be a great invention that reversed our disadvantageous situation in the battle against the evil spirits. Her merit points will not be little, at least 5000 in one go, or even more than 10000. Of course, all this is still under discussion.”
Hu Changjun couldn’t help but sigh. “If you were the one who invented the evil spirit detector, everything would be much simpler.
Hu Changjun immediately laughed and said, “I’m still busy, so I’ll be leaving first. This time, your school has entered the National competition, so you’ll come to Central City to watch the student competition. See you in Central City!”
After saying that, Hu Changjun disappeared on the spot.
Ning Shi already knew Hao Meng’s identity as the director of the Heretic Research Institute and understood Hu Changjun’s meaning. The official’s attitude towards Hao Meng had always been controversial.
Hao Meng was his woman, and Ning Shi certainly couldn’t let her suffer. He had to fight for the right benefits.
He would wait for the reward. If it was unfair, Ning Shi would not remain silent.
