Volume 3: Evil Ghosts Eat People Chapter 159 Don’t Mess with Xu Zun (Part 2)
Xu Zun rode his horse as fast as he could to the North Prison female prisoners. When he and Hong Gu rushed into the cell, they saw that it was in chaos.
Huo Anu was fighting with many officials dressed in black. As Huo Anu's iron umbrella was damaged, she now held a short stick and beat the officials until they screamed.
"What's going on?"
Xu Zun shouted and pushed to the ground an officer who was about to attack Huo Anu.
"Sir!" Huo Anu rushed through the crowd when he saw Xu Zun, and came up to Xu Zun and reported angrily, "That dog official from the Dali Temple used the excuse of investigating a case to... defile a girl..."
Huo Anu was furious, his voice shaking.
Xu Zun stepped forward and saw a heart-wrenching scene. He saw that Li Jinlou, the Inspector of the Dali Temple, was tying his belt in a swaggering manner.
In that cell , a disheveled girl was crying in humiliation. She was chained and unable to move.
Crack...
Seeing this scene, Xu Zun clenched his fists so hard that they made a crackling sound.
"Humph, what an ungrateful female nurse," Li Jinlou walked out of the cell triumphantly, staring at Huo Anu and said, "How dare you openly attack my Dali Temple investigators? Are you tired of living?
"Come on, catch her. I will bring her to justice!"
"Yes!" Although the officers agreed, they had already seen how powerful Huo Anu was, so they just made a show of strength and did not dare to attack rashly.
"Master Li," Xu Zun stood in front of Huo Anu and said to Li Jinlou, "I think you are the one who is tired of living, right?"
"Oh?" Li Jinlou was very surprised and said with a grin, "How dare a mere Tangzhou Chief Justice speak so arrogantly to me? You really don't know what's good for you!"
"Sir..." At this time, Huo Anu behind him explained, "I am derelict in my duty. I didn't expect this dog official to be so rampant. As soon as he came in, he asked to interrogate the female prisoner. I thought he was from the Dali Temple and must have interrogated her according to the rules, so I didn't stop him.
"But I didn't expect that he would take the opportunity to...defile that girl! By the time I realized that something was wrong, it was too late... Please forgive me, sir."
"It's okay, I don't blame you!" Xu Zun glared at Li Jinlou and shouted, "Li Jinlou, as the Supervisor of the Dali Temple, you defiled a good girl for no reason, do you know your crime!?"
"What? Ha...hahaha..." Li Jinlou laughed, "Little judge, this is really ridiculous!
"Is this a prison? Are the people in the prison criminals? I am here to interrogate the criminals. Let alone giving them a small punishment, what's the harm in killing them? Where is this good girl?"
"Fuck you!" Xu Zun yelled, "These are innocent girls who have been brainwashed by the cult. They are locked up here because they have not yet regained their sanity.
“They are all victims of kidnapping by the Xuanmen cult, so they are naturally good girls!
"Sir Li, as an official of the Dali Temple, you should know what the crime of defiling a girl is, right?"
"Oh, you really think you're an important person, don't you?" Li Jinlou said arrogantly, "Xu Zun, don't think I don't know your origins. So what if your father is Xu Changlin?
"Don't think you're great just because you solved a few cases! In my eyes, you're nothing!
"Let me tell you," Li Jinlou said in a commanding tone, "There are so many suspects detained here, but you can't get anything out of them. This means you are deliberately covering up for them!
"Now, I am here to interrogate you, but you ordered your men to attack me. Let me first ask you what crime you deserve!"
"Ah..." Huo Anu was furious and shouted behind Xu Zun, "Sir, I can't stand it! Such a bad official, let me take his life!"
"Don't move!" Xu Zun held down Huo Anu and turned to Li Jinlou and said, "My Great Xuan is a reasonable dynasty, I believe someone will make the decision for us!
"Li Jinlou, if you have the guts, just wait and see if I, Xu Zun, can bring you down. If the Dali Temple can't handle you, then I will file a complaint with the Emperor!"
“Hahahaha…” Hearing this, Li Jinlou laughed out loud, “I didn’t expect Xu Changlin’s son to be so childish!
"Okay, then I'll wait for you to file a complaint with the emperor and see if the emperor will listen to you, a mere Tangzhou judge. Hahahaha..."
After Gu finished speaking, he swaggered past Xu Zun and said with a smug smile:
"However, I want to remind you, let's see whether my report is faster or your petition is faster. You'd better be careful about your future! Humph..."
Soon, Li Jinlou walked to the door and deliberately said loudly to his men:
"The female prisoners here are all stubborn. I think they are definitely not telling the truth. So I will have to come here more often in the future to interrogate them properly. Hahahaha..."
Seeing Li Jinlou leading his men safely out of the North Prison gate, Huo Anu was so angry that he was about to explode.
"Sir," she said angrily, shaking, "It's all my fault for not being on guard today. If only I could have stopped him from coming in earlier! Even if I could have given them a good beating!"
Xu Zun didn't say anything, but took off his coat, walked into the cell, and covered the girl with the clothes.
The girl shuddered with fear and cried even louder...
"It's really unfortunate for my Daxuan that the Dali Temple has such an inspector!" Xu Zun narrowed his eyes, with a deep and fierce light flashing in his pupils.
"What should I do now?" Huo Anu said angrily, "There is no way to reason with him! The worst thing is that I have caused trouble for the adults!
"Sir, you have a good relationship with that Censor Chen. How about asking Censor Chen to speak for you?"
"Anu," Xu Zun pulled Huo Anu out of the door and said , "You are right. We will not keep such an inhuman dog official!"
…
That evening.
In the luxurious private room of Taixian Tower, Inspector Li Jinlou smashed the wine glass to pieces.
"Hmph!" he cursed angrily, "You are just a small Tangzhou judge, you are really tired of living! Xu Zun, just wait and see what crime I will accuse you of, so that you will never be able to turn over a new leaf!
"You're still complaining to the emperor, don't you think you're any better than me?"
"Please calm down, sir, please calm down," a clerk of Li Jinlou advised at this time, "You don't have to be angry over such an ungrateful person. Come, eat some food..."
The clerk was equivalent to a secretary. This person knew Li Jinlou's character very well. He immediately served him food and poured him wine, and flattered him, which quickly calmed Li Jinlou down.
"Has no one told that brat?" Li Jinlou said again, "His father Xu Changlin did a lot of plotting against me in the past. Now that he's in my hands, instead of offering him gifts or beauties, he even dares to speak rudely and contradict me! I'm going to beat him to death!"
"Yes, yes, yes, sir. If you want to kill him, it's just like killing an ant! Haha..." said the clerk.
"No," Li Jinlou still felt unsatisfied and said, "Tomorrow, I will go to the North Prison to interrogate a few girls and have fun. I have to say, those girls are really beautiful!
"It's a pity that they are not the real suspects. If this gets out, it will really be... Tsk tsk..."
"Sir," the clerk said, remembering something, "Now that you mention it, I remember something!"
"What's up?"
"Today I heard from the detectives of the county government that although there are many women detained in the North Prison, none of them are the most beautiful!" The registrar deliberately whetted Li Jinlou's appetite.
"What nonsense!" Li Jinlou didn't believe it. "How could there be girls prettier than those girls? Impossible!"
"Really, really," the recorder said, "They said that there is a woman imprisoned in the South Prison. She is a hundred times prettier than the girl in the North Prison!"
"Oh?" Li Jinlou sobered up instantly and asked, "Really?"
"Moreover, she's a beauty from Yuanzhou!" said the recorder. "The most important thing is that this woman is a real criminal. Can't you interrogate her however you want? Hahaha..."
