Is it necessary to be so hasty? Du Huoguan couldn't help but remind, "Prison master, although the Qi family's own strength is limited, their backing in the Heavenly Court is not to be taken lightly. To kill their daughter without a reason is indeed indefensible, and it cannot be explained to the Heavenly Court either."

Nie turned around and sat down on the brocaded couch, asking, "What reason was Shi Chun arrested for?"

Du Huoguan: "Theft."

Nie: "Then let it be theft."

"..." Du Huoguan choked back and was left speechless. Qi Yueru came to visit the prison and casually stole things, then the whole city guard is just for show, plus it took your personal killing, is this reason valid? Even if it's told, it needs to be believed.

However, he quickly understood the intent; an indefensible reason was exactly right, as it was indefensible that could keep the person safe.

After all, fabricating a crime was something he would have to manage himself later.
