Chapter 70 We Are Different

"Sanshui County is really a place with many turtles in shallow ponds!"
Looking through the county annals, criminal cases, and the corresponding information given by Mr. Chen, Shen Yu complained. The magistrate of Sanshui County is really not something that an ordinary person can do. This job requires flexibility.
For example, the former county lieutenant Han Mingyang was a direct disciple of the leader of the Dajiang Sect, and the county magistrate An Jincheng was from the An family, one of the three major business houses. All of them had "strong backgrounds".
In Sanshui County, merchants are mainly from the three major chambers of commerce, and their businesses are spread all over the country. The Nanyu Sect and the Dajiang Sect are the most powerful sects. Other aristocratic families and wealthy people are also spread all over the country.
In addition, due to the geographical advantages of Sanshui County, there are many wuxia heroes, and the market has never been peaceful. When people come out to make a living in the wuxia world, most people are happy to take revenge, and sometimes a fight may break out over a wrong word.
If you can't beat them, you call for help. Sometimes a one-on-one fight can turn into a group fight. Being a county magistrate here means being scolded. They can't beat those martial arts masters. They can only watch them fight. Once they start fighting, it is inevitable that others will be affected.
The industries of those powerful forces were affected, and a shopkeeper could scold them. They couldn't even talk back, or else they would make things difficult for them. Just wait.
These people have enormous power, and their connections are not only extensive in Jiangzhou, but can even reach the Governor's Office in Nanhua Territory, so almost no one will buy the county magistrate's face.
Of course, if the county magistrate is willing to cooperate honestly and not be afraid of being frustrated, then there will be no problem. But if you want to be a good official and want to enforce the law impartially, then you have to think carefully. Ordinary people can't handle it!
"Are you the new magistrate of Sanshui County?" Just when Shen Yu was thinking about how to run Sanshui County, someone suddenly pushed the door open.
The person who came was a girl of about 17 or 18 years old, with beautiful and pure hair, clear eyes, and a fresh breath emanating from her body, which made people's eyes light up. But this hard-earned dress concealed her figure.
The other party seemed to be from the police station. They had an iron plate on their waists, indicating that they were the head of the police station. What were they doing here? Were they celebrating their new appointment?
"I am the magistrate of Sanshui County!" Shen Yu nodded and asked, "What do you want to do here?"
"I just want to know if what happened last night was really done by you. Did you destroy the Fenshui Gang, the Baizhu Gang and other gangs?"
"Yes, it is me!" He nodded. There was nothing wrong with admitting this. It was also the duty of the police to crack down on criminal gangs. Maybe they would even give him a banner or something.
"Who told you to do it? Do you know that you have delayed our important task of arresting the door?"
He looked at Shen Yu with anger, and started to curse. The police had been keeping an eye on the Fenshui Gang and the Baizhu Gang for a while, and they were suddenly destroyed last night. The police had actually received the news.
However, the man who came was very skilled in martial arts, and since they didn't know who he was, they didn't dare to act rashly. Maybe this man was here to kill people and silence them. As long as they followed him, maybe they would have a breakthrough in the case they had been investigating.
Who would have thought that he would come to the county government office, and then the news of the new county magistrate came out. It turned out that it was this new county magistrate who did it last night. They were immediately filled with righteous indignation. This little county magistrate made all their efforts for several months go to waste!
"Have I delayed your important business?" After hearing this, Shen Yu almost laughed out of anger.
"The Water Dividing Gang and the White Bamboo Gang have committed numerous crimes. I don't believe that you, the police, don't know about this. For such a long time, you have not only let them do whatever they want, but now that I have eradicated this cancer, you are blaming me. What exactly do you want to do?"
"Could it be that there is some hidden connection between the police and these gangs?"
"What do you know!" Shen Yu yelled at him, and the other party responded rudely, "Some time ago, the police wiped out the Changgan Gang. We learned from them that someone was secretly collecting girls and boys of a certain age. Not only them, but the Fenshui Gang and the Baizhu Gang are also doing this!"
"It's just that the other party acted too cautiously. We have been keeping an eye on them for such a long time, but have gained very little. Now, the Fenshui Gang has gathered some more people. We just need to wait for them to hand over, and then we can follow this line to find the person behind the scenes. But now, everything has been ruined by you!"
"This is ridiculous. As far as I know, the Long Pole Gang has been destroyed for several months. Are you just standing there and watching? What do you guys want to do? Do you know how many people have been harmed in the past few months?"
As far as Shen Yu knew, the number of people harmed by the Changgan Gang was far less than that of the Baizhu Gang. The Changgan Gang that was previously wiped out by the police was also involved in trafficking women. However, they harmed people from other places.
Although the Changgan Gang's headquarters is in Sanshui County, its disciples roam around everywhere. Moreover, they specifically target those girls from small families or ladies from wealthy families who have a simple background but good looks.
First they identified their targets, then knocked them unconscious or knocked them out, and sent them to Sanshui County. After training them, they were sold to wealthy businessmen or children of rich families passing by.
Sanshui County is located on a major transportation route, and what it lacks the most is the merchants and wealthy people who come and go. These people are not short of money, but they are often spiritually empty and generous. Each of them can bring considerable benefits to the Changgan Gang.
In short, the Changgan Gang focuses on quality, while the Fenshui Gang focuses on quantity. It can be said that for every person harmed by the Changgan Gang, the Fenshui Gang can harm a dozen or even dozens of others.
They all did evil, but in terms of the degree of evil they committed, the Changgan Gang that was destroyed actually caused far less harm than the Fenshui Gang and the Baizhu Gang.
It was just that when the Changgan Gang was scouting out the place, they probably didn't find out the background of the person before they took action. As a result, the Changgan Gang, whose disciples were almost all over Jiangzhou, was targeted by the arrests and collapsed in an instant.
Although the Changgan Gang was destroyed, other gangs engaged in trafficking still existed. The police only destroyed the Changgan Gang, but did not take action against other gangs, and these people continued to prey on the people.
Now this female constable has the nerve to say to him that she has delayed their work. She is so shameless. Do you still have any shame ?
You are still playing the long game to catch the big fish. You just watched those innocent people being killed and did nothing. You are fishing for your sister!
"You, you!" Looking at Shen Yu opposite her, the girl still said firmly, "Sir Shen, do you know how many people will be killed if the person behind the scenes is not found out? How many consequences will it cause?"
"You don't have to scare me. I just want to know, how long will it take you to find out who is behind this? Three months, five months? Or a year?" Looking up at the other person and the delicate face in front of him, Shen Yu felt a little sick at this moment.
"I'm telling you, the account books of the Fenshui Gang and the Baizhu Gang are in my hands. In just three months, they attacked nearly 500 people in total, and more than 500 people were killed. If you have been keeping an eye on them, I think you should know!"
"For a case that may take who knows how long to solve, you let such a big cancer stand. In the final analysis, you are just doing it for that little bit of credit, there is no need to make such high-sounding statements ! As for the lives of ordinary people, you don't care at all!"
With a sneer, Shen Yu continued, "Yes, to you, these ordinary people are just ants. They die and that's it! We are different. I am the magistrate of Sanshui County. I am the parent official of this place, so I have to make decisions for the people!"
"You, you... are short-sighted and extremely stupid!"
"No match for you. You turned a blind eye to the torture of so many girls. You are so cold-blooded and heartless! Today I have witnessed the style of the police!"
