Chapter 28: Seeing the Blood Corpse Again
Jin Jiu was craning his ears when Jiang Zhou's face changed and he changed the subject: "What are you thinking? If I had a backer, why would I need to be a knife bearer?"
This reason has always worked.
“…”
"Okay, if you don't want to talk about it, I won't ask any more questions. After all, we are colleagues. Please take care of me in the future. I still have a mission to complete, so I'll take my leave now."
Jin Jiu looked as if he understood, clasped his fists, and then said goodbye and left. It was quite straightforward.
Jiang Zhou shook his head.
It seems that his reputation has spread in the Sujing Division.
Not a good reputation.
But it may not be a bad thing.
Having an imaginary backer can at least give people some scruples.
Then his eyes fell on the green vine again.
Chu Yunlou, Xue Li?
That evil woman actually still has such an identity in Wujun?
He had heard those knife wielders talking about Chu Yunlou when he was in the Knife Prison.
It is the most famous brothel .
Don't forget the joy of one day...
Perhaps in Jin Jiu's view, this is a beautiful and thought-provoking love word.
But Jiang Zhou understood that this was a reminder to him, or even a warning to him.
Is it to remind yourself not to forget your own identity?
Jiang Zhou took a deep breath and a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth.
In fact, he is not as afraid of that witch as before.
Not to mention Taiyi Wuyanluo, with his current identity as a demon patrol guard, it would not be difficult for him to design a plan to expose the demon woman to Su Jingsi's eyes.
No matter how powerful the witch is, Jiang Zhou doesn't believe that she can fight Su Jingsi head-on.
But Jiang Zhou didn't want to do this unless it was absolutely necessary.
Because this would expose his "relationship" with the witch.
Regardless of whether he can clear the suspicion in the end, it is still a big trouble.
He can't be so "leisurely" anymore, he has to take the initiative and kill more demons.
Jiang Zhou took a look at the green vine in his hand, took out a fire starter and lit it until it was completely burned into ashes, then wrapped it in a piece of paper.
He went out specially and scattered the ashes into the water.
Huaishui is the largest river in Nanzhou and runs through Wujun City.
Jiang Zhou didn't believe that after doing it so thoroughly, the witch could still have any weird tricks left.
Returning to the Sujing Division again, I went straight to the file library.
When it comes to the knowledge of demons and monsters, there is absolutely no place in the world that can compare with the Daji Sujingsi.
As a demon patrol guard, Jiang Zhou has the right to review some of the files of the Sujing Division.
These files are basically divided according to the grades of the monsters and are classified into four categories: A, B, C, and D.
The Ding-shaped scroll library corresponds to the newly-qualified demons, and is also within the access rights of the demon patrol guards.
In fact, with Jiang Zhou's current ability, he is more than capable of dealing with the newly-qualified demons.
That is to say, in the Sujing Division, there are various instruments specifically designed for demons, and he relies on the protection of Taiyi Wuyanluo, otherwise he would never be able to kill the demons.
"Dog demon? It has a copper skin and iron bones, and can turn into black smoke and penetrate any hole. Other than that, it doesn't have any weird abilities. It's quite suitable..."
Jiang Zhou flipped through many files before finally finding a "soft persimmon" among them.
In terms of thick skin and great strength, Jiang Zhou has been refined by Longchu during this period of time, and with the help of Wuyanluo, he is not afraid at all.
It’s just that this ability to turn into black smoke is a bit troublesome.
You also need to apply for a demon-binding chain.
The Demon Binding Chain is another powerful weapon of the Sujingsi besides the Demon-Slaying Sword. It can bind demons and invisible evil spirits.
The knife wielder is not qualified to use it, but the demon patrol guards can apply for its use.
To be on the safe side, Jiang Zhou planned to get another surgeon to go with him.
This is also the scope of authority of the Demon Patrol Guard.
As soon as he arrived outside the Sword Prison, Jiang Zhou wanted to find the demon patrol guard on duty today and assign the sword-wielding task of tomorrow to Yi Sanliu, who was familiar with him.
But I happened to see several stretchers being carried into the Knife Prison.
Jiang Zhou saw clearly the person on one of the stretchers and his pupils twitched slightly.
B36?
Jiang Zhou rushed over: "What's going on?"
The demon patrol guard in charge of handling the corpse didn't want to pay attention at first, but when he looked up and saw Jiang Zhou's face clearly, he hesitated and said, "I don't know yet. In fact, the missions of these knifemen today are different, and they are not dangerous. With their qualifications, it should not be difficult for them to kill the target."
"Just now, someone from the Criminal Department came and said that the bodies of our people were found outside the city. This is what we saw when we rushed over."
He pointed to several bodies on stretchers.
These knifemen performed different tasks, but their causes of death were exactly the same.
And Jiang Zhou is particularly familiar with it.
Exactly the same Chen Shusheng he saw on the street today!
The skin was completely peeled off, the abdominal cavity was empty, and all the internal organs were missing.
The demon patrol guards knew that Jiang Zhou was a knife bearer before today. Seeing his ugly expression, they knew that he might have some friendship with these knife bearers, so they simply told him everything they knew:
"I'm afraid this case needs to be reported to the captain. This kind of death should be related to a demon that our department has been investigating for some time. You should know it."
The demon patroller said, "It's the Tongjifang case. The young lady of the Chen family married six husbands in a row, and all six husbands died, and their deaths were the same as theirs."
Jiang Zhou was stunned: "This case has not been solved yet?"
He remembered hearing about this case when he first took up knife duty.
The demon patroller shook his head and said, "This case is a bit weird. We have already lost two teams of personnel, and we haven't even seen the shadow of the demon yet."
"Is it really the work of a demon?"
Jiang Zhou couldn't help but wonder, "Who is this Miss Chen?"
The demon patrol guard looked around before saying, "She is a rich lady from Tongjifang. I heard she has some connection with the prefectural governor's mansion."
"I know what you mean. I suspected her before, but I didn't find any evidence. The people who died before were more or less contaminated by the evil spirits of demons, and the Miss Chen is a human, there is no doubt about that."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Zhou thought to himself that the young lady from the Chen family might have an extraordinary family background.
If this case was in the hands of the Ministry of Justice, they might still follow some rules.
But it fell into the hands of Su Jingsi. If it were an ordinary family, would it matter whether you had evidence or not?
Let’s handcuff him back first.
She has been married to six husbands, and each of them was unlucky to her, but there are still people willing and dare to marry her. If it weren't for her amazing family background, what would others want?
"Okay, that's all I know."
The demon patrol guard said this and ordered his men to carry up the body and leave.
Jiang Zhou came back to his senses from the silence: "Where are they going to send them to?"
The demon patrol guard turned around and said, "Send them to the Blade Prison for disposal. These corpses are tainted with demonic evil spirits. If they are spread out, it will cause great harm."
Looking at the horrific corpse of Yi Sanliu being carried away.
Jiang Zhou sighed inwardly.
Another familiar person left.
He remembered that when they were leaving today, the man joked that he would never come back, and now his words have come true.
