Chapter 84: Old Pine Ridge
The guard’s face changed drastically.
This prisoner had only just been brought in today. It was said he had murdered his wife, so how had he suddenly died the moment he saw Head Constable Wang? Could it be... that Head Constable Wang was somehow connected to this case?!
The guard panicked. He was merely a low-ranking guard, and he didn’t dare get involved in anything like this. He immediately took a step back and remained silent.
Head Constable Wang placed his hand on the hilt of his saber and barked coldly, “Guard, open the door! What are you doing hiding all the way back there?”
The guard jolted, quickly took out his keys, and hurried forward to unlock the cell.
Inside, the stench was overwhelming. A mix of decaying vegetation and the rancid smell of urine turned the stomach.
Head Constable Wang crouched down and checked Zhang Hai’s breathing and pulse. His brow furrowed instinctively.
“He’s really dead.”
Head Constable Wang was a bit stunned. One sentence from me and he died of fright?!
Li Yanchu activated his Qi Sight, scanning the cell for any trace of sinister or demonic qi.
“Strange, there’s no trace of evil presence in this cell,” Li Yanchu said.
Everyone fell silent.
