Chapter 30 Bloody Corpse Case
Jin Jiu and Jiang Zhou looked at each other and asked, "Old Bear, do you know why Captain You summoned us?"
"Old Bear" said with a somewhat sarcastic smile: "How should I know? Maybe seeing that Uncle Jiang has been performing quite well recently, he wants to be summoned to be rewarded. Maybe he will be promoted soon."
Jin Jiu frowned and said, "Old Bear, who are you talking about in such a sarcastic tone?"
"Old Bear" sneered: "Why? Did I say something wrong?"
"you……"
"Old Nine, it's okay, I'll go first."
Jiang Zhou stopped the angry Jin Jiu, said to "Old Bear" lightly, "Thank you for telling me", and left the yard.
Although he knew he was in the wrong, he did not get angry, but he also did not accept being insulted and was magnanimous enough to greet people with a smile.
Soon they arrived at Baijie Hall and met Captain You.
The Wujun Sujing Division usually has a demon-suppressing commander in charge.
A captain will also be appointed as deputy director to help the captain manage the affairs of the office.
Before, it was Shi Feng. After Shi Feng was transferred away, this Captain You took over.
His name is You Xu, an eighth-level martial arts master.
Currently, only the captain in the department can definitely defeat him.
Before, there was a Shi Feng who could suppress him a little.
At this time, he was sitting in Baijie Hall. Jiang Zhou came in, bowed and greeted him, without saying a word.
He just sat in the hall with a condescending look, his eyes closed, as if he didn't see Jiang Zhou.
Jiang Zhou was not surprised and just stood aside waiting quietly.
He had known for a long time that Captain You was dissatisfied with him. He had never treated him well since he was promoted to the Demon Patrol Guard.
However, perhaps it was because the rules in the company were extremely strict, or perhaps he was concerned that he was appointed by Li Xuance himself, so they did not obviously target him or cause him any trouble.
Jiang Zhou secretly tried to figure out the other party's intention of calling him here this time. You Xu suddenly opened his eyes and said calmly, "Jiang Zhou, how long have you been a demon patrol guard?"
Jiang Zhou's heart trembled, and he gathered his spirits: "My Lord, it has been more than a month, almost two months."
"Well, it's been almost two months..."
You Xu cast a cold gaze on him: "I heard from the people below that you have been practicing swordsmanship hard recently, that's great, have you made any progress?"
Jiang Zhou said: "I am a dull subordinate, I just think that hard work can make up for my shortcomings, I don't dare to expect any achievements."
"That's not what I meant."
You Xu said unhappily, "You are different from others."
"General Li personally recommended you to be a demon patrol guard. This is an unprecedented honor in the department. You must not let down the general's prestige and let outsiders laugh at the general's vision."
Jiang Zhou's heart tightened slightly, and he quickly said, "Captain, General Li just..."
"Okay, no need to say more."
You Xu interrupted him and said, "You have been a demon patroller for quite some time. You have learned and experienced almost everything you should have."
"If you continue to follow the other demon patrol guards around like this, others will say that I am jealous of talented people and am suppressing the talents of you, a talent personally appointed by the general, and not letting you stand out."
"I dare not!"
Jiang Zhou took a deep breath.
This old guy is going to do something bad!
If the emperor said this to a minister, it would definitely mean that the emperor was itching to chop off a few heads.
really.
"It's time for you to be on your own."
You Xu said, "A simple case won't show your skills. How about this? There's a case in the department that has been pending for a while. You will be in charge of it."
"This lieutenant believes that General Li's vision will not be wrong."
He picked up a scroll from the table in front of him and threw it over.
Jiang Zhou quickly took it in his hand.
You Xu then said, "You must solve this case, and do it beautifully, so that no one can find fault with it. Only then can those gossipers shut up and General Li be proud."
"So, you have seven days to solve this case and bring the demons involved to justice, in order to demonstrate the majesty of our Sujing Division and the majesty of Daji's laws!"
His voice suddenly became a little cold: "Can you do it?"
Jiang Zhou took a deep breath and said, "I obey your command."
The rules of the Sujing Division are extremely strict.
Completing the task will require reward.
But if you fail to complete it, the punishment will be extremely severe.
Even if Li Xuance was his biological father, it was impossible for him to slap himself in the face and stand up for him in such a matter.
Besides, Li Xuance is not his father.
Jiang Zhou still has no idea what Li Xuance is thinking.
Who knows why he promoted himself with such fanfare?
How could I possibly stand up for him?
It is clear that You Xu is now ready to cause trouble, and everything is within the rules and legal. How can he say no?
"Well, then step down, do your job well, and don't let General Li down."
You Xu waved his hand nonchalantly, not hiding his indifference and disgust on the surface, but every word he said was accurate.
Jiang Zhou didn't want to get along with him here, so he took the documents and left.
…
In Jiang Zhou's room.
Jin Jiu looked at the document with his eyes wide open and shouted, "Miss Chen's case in Tongjifang!?"
"You are going to die!"
Jiang Zhou sat aside, looking helpless.
He guessed correctly, You Xu just wanted to make trouble for him.
But he didn't expect it to be so extreme.
So far, the Sujing Division has involved more than twenty knife-wielding men and three demon-patrolling guards in this case.
But still, he didn't even meet the demon.
All those people died in unclear circumstances.
This case was brought to the higher authorities not long ago.
According to common sense, with so many people losing their lives, at least a captain should be sent to take charge.
But now You Xu actually gave it to him.
It's obvious that they want to harm him.
But everything is within the rules. Even though anyone can see the intention, no one can say anything when they go there.
Jin Jiu put down the document and asked seriously, "What are you going to do?"
Jiang Zhou shook his head.
Jin Jiu hesitated and said, "Otherwise, I will go and ask Captain Miao for help. Captain You's behavior is totally unreasonable."
There are a dozen demon-suppressing captains in the Wujun Sujing Division.
After such a long time, Jiang Zhou has basically seen them all.
Captain Miao's name is Miao Renfeng, and he is considered to be one of the more popular ones among them.
Most of the Demon Patrol Guards are close to him and like to work under him.
Jiang Zhou shook his head and said, "Forget it. Captain You has already issued the order, so how can he take it back?"
Although this case was very dangerous, if he took charge of it, it would be a sure death in the eyes of others.
But Jiang Zhou also wanted to give it a try.
If for no other reason than the tragic death of Yi Sanliu not long ago.
Without exception, all those who died in this case were skinned and hearted.
Just like the scholar Wu he met on the street.
Ever since he saw the miserable condition of Yi Sanliu, he has kept it in mind.
I thought that maybe in the future I would have a chance to catch the murderer myself and avenge him.
It can be regarded as a repayment for the advice that Yi Sanliu gave him in Daoyu several times.
I just didn’t expect this “opportunity” to come so early.
Since it is unavoidable now, let's just not avoid it.
Jiang Zhou is now a man who has experienced a lot, no longer the delicate time traveler who had just come to this world.
It's just death anyway.
Jiang Zhou is afraid of death, but when the time comes, he also has a ruthless spirit.
Who in their right mind would dare to cut open their own heart with a knife and plant grass inside?
Besides, he is not without support, so it is not easy to kill him.
Jin Jiu didn't know what he was thinking, and said anxiously: "What do you mean by forget it! This is a matter of life and death!"
Jiang Zhou stood up, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Old Nine, you don't have to worry about me. I will take care of this matter myself."
"you……"
"I have to solve a case. I'm leaving now."
Jin Jiu wanted to persuade him again, but Jiang Zhou just smiled and left Sujingsi without giving him a chance.
He has to go investigate the case.
This case has not been resolved yet. The only few clues are the bloody corpses with tragic deaths and the young lady of the Chen family who is related to several of the dead.
Jiang Zhou knew that there was another person who might be able to tell him some clues.
