Chapter 257
As Wei Meiyu applied medicine for Xia Pingan, she secretly looked at the tattoo on Xia Pingan’s back.
There were about 20 to 30 wounds on Xia Pingan’s body. These wounds were all left behind by the seven Suns realm expert. Although the wounds were not fatal and the wounds were not deep, as if they had been cut by a knife, even so, for ordinary people, these many wounds were enough to make them experience what a real heart-piercing pain was like.
Although these wounds were caused by the summoner in the seven Suns realm, Xia Pingan did not hate that person. He knew that he had already shown mercy to that person. If that person had wanted to, his injuries could have been ten times worse, unlike the current situation where only some flesh wounds were left.
The adjudicator Union and his identity as an inspector had prevented that person from falling out with him and killing an adjudicator in Shangjing.
Xia ping ‘an closed her eyes. She was still replaying every detail of her fight with the seven Suns realm expert in her mind.
To a Summoner, level did not mean everything. The effect of a powerful summoning spell in a fight could not be underestimated. Sometimes, it could even play a leading role. It was not impossible for a low-level Summoner to defeat a Summoner of a higher level. As long as the spell was used properly, anything was possible. This was also the fascinating part of the summoner profession. To a Summoner, there was no absolute weakness.
However, the gap between a three-sun realm Summoner and a seven-sun realm Summoner was too big. If a low-level Summoner’s spell couldn’t cover the difference in level, the result of the battle was obvious.
Xia Pingan thought about it many times in his head and realized that it would not be difficult for the seven-sun realm Summoner to kill him today. If that person wanted to kill him today, he would not even have the chance to escape. This result allowed Xia Pingan to truly calm down and see the gap between him and the summoners above the six-sun realm.
Shangjing was full of crouching tigers and hidden dragons. He had to work harder!
That person’s lightning summoning spell technique was very strange. He didn’t know what realm Pearl could summon lightning.
As Xia Pingan was thinking about this, his ears twitched and he heard the sound of messy footsteps coming from the corridor outside. He ” looked ” outside his office and saw a group of people walking toward his office in an aggressive manner.
As long Chao, Hua ziqin, and the others could only stand in the corridor and at the doors of their respective teams ‘offices due to the tokens in their hands. They dared not move and could only watch those people walking towards their offices in silence.
“Alright, it’s almost done!” Xia Pingan said to Wei Meiyu.
Wei Meiyu nodded and put away the medicine bottle.
Bang! Bang! Bang! The door to Xia Pingan’s office was violently pushed open from the outside. A few cold-looking Men in Black barged in. The Man in Black leading the group was in his thirties. He had a square face, squinted eyes, and thin lips. His face was cold and hard, and he had an overbearing aura.
“Who are you people?” Wei Meiyu asked angrily.
The square-faced man glanced at Wei Meiyu’s face and the medicine bottle in her hand, then at Xia Pingan’s wounds. He took out a token and said coldly, ” Hmph, Lord Xia really knows how to enjoy himself. We’re from the law supervisor of the judgement Army. Lord Xia, please come with us!
“Alright, I’ll go with you after I get dressed!” Xia Pingan stood up slowly, picked up his shirt, and prepared to put it on.
The squinted eyes of the square-faced man flashed as he said firmly, ” don’t waste time. Let’s go now. as he spoke, the square-faced man gave a look to the people on his left and right. Two Men in Black took out shackles and walked towards Xia Pingan, trying to cuff him.
“Take one more step forward and I’ll make sure none of you can leave this office today!” Xia ping ‘an glanced at the square-faced man and said coldly. He was slowly putting on his clothes. The two men in Black who were walking forward with shackles suddenly stopped.
“What did you just say? are you threatening me?” The square-faced man glared at Xia ping ‘an with a cold glint in his eyes. He took a step forward and chided, ” how dare you threaten the people from the law and supervision Department? ”
Xia Pingan calmly buttoned up his shirt. A smile appeared on his face, but his tone was unusually cold. I’m a member of the judicial Army. Of course, I’ll cooperate with the legal department when they carry out their tasks. However, are you in such a hurry to stand up for someone? are you sure that I’m in trouble this time? why do you have to make me look bad and cause trouble for me? you don’t even let me wear my clothes and you want to take me away? If I’m not unlucky this time, you’ll be the next unlucky one. I’ll play with you slowly in the future. You and your men better pray that nothing happens to me, that you don’t have any business in the Donggang District, and that I’ll be an inspector forever in the judgement Army, unable to be promoted to a high position!”
The square-faced man’s expression changed slightly. The two men in Black who were holding the shackles looked at each other and hesitated for a moment. The square-faced man looked at Xia Pingan with some suspicion. After thinking for a while, he finally waved his hand and asked the two men in Black who were holding the shackles to step down. They did not dare to act rashly.
Xia Pingan put on her shirt, and Wei Meiyu took her vest and coat. Xia Pingan put them all on and tidied up her appearance before saying to the people standing in the office, ” okay, let’s go!
A few people from the legal department walked out of Xia Pingan’s office with Xia Pingan in the middle.
Both sides of the corridor outside were already filled with people. Long Chao, Situ Hua, and the others were all looking at Xia Pingan with complicated expressions.
No one would have thought that Xia ping ‘an would cause such a big incident after only two days in the Donggang inspection department and would be taken away by the legal Division.
However, Xia Pingan was calm, composed, and calm. He did not look like he was being taken away by the people from the legal Division at all. Instead, it was as if he was going to a meeting. As he walked, he nodded slightly to the people on both sides of the corridor and even gave instructions. everything will be the same in the supervision Department for the next two days. Don’t slack off. Get moving. Long Chao, Hua ziqin, the two of you check the background information of those people who intercepted me today. When I return, I will deal with them one by one and make them pay. As for the rest of you, find out the Huang family’s business in the Donggang District. I’ll play with them when I come back. It’s time for you to get rich and get some bonuses!”
Long Chao, Hua ziqin, Situ Hua, and the others looked at each other. Did this master think that the legal Division was inviting him for a tea and a heart-to-heart talk?
When the people from the law Department who were escorting Xia ping ‘an heard this, their eyelids twitched even more. The square-faced man’s face was so dark that it could drip water. Damn it, he had worked in the law Department of the judicial Army for so many years. This was the first time he had seen someone so arrogant when the law Department came to find him. He had no idea what this guy was relying on. Moreover, this guy’s heart for revenge is so heavy. He’s thinking about how to take revenge now. If he really makes an enemy, it’ll really be a big problem.
Just like that, Xia ping ‘an left the inspection department with the people from the law and supervision Department under the watchful eyes of the people from the inspection department.
Although Xia ping ‘an had left, there was a strange silence in the inspection department.
ahem, ahem, let me ask you, does the Lord inspector have some misunderstanding about the law and discipline Department? ” Situ Hua coughed twice and looked around at the people around him. He was the first to break the silence.
I’ve never seen a person who was taken away by the law and supervision Department come back unsteadily. Perhaps, the Lord inspector can create a miracle! Fan Gang, who was wearing a black robe, said softly.
I don’t think the inspector has ever mentioned that he has any backing. An inspector who dared to barge into the governor’s mansion and cut off the head of the governor’s son on the street after just two days of being in office has not been seen in Shangjing for many years. The moment the inspector arrived, he created two records, haha, ” Dongmen Yong pushed up his Kasaya glasses and spoke like an elder.
Long Chao was silent. He pursed his lips tightly and turned to leave.
“Long Chao, what are you going to do?” Situ Hua asked.
go and investigate the background of those people who intercepted us and Sir inspector today. Wait for Sir to return and deal with them! Long Chao did not turn around. He only replied coldly, ” we, the Donggang inspector Bureau, are not to be trifled with!
I’m going to take a walk too. Hua ziqin followed long Chao’s footsteps.
those trash should have been cleaned up a long time ago, ” the Silent Fang nu also spoke up. I’ll take some people to the dock area and ask for some information, Huanhuan. Fang nu also started to move.
Situ Hua stroked his chin and suddenly laughed. perhaps this inspector can really make everyone rich and let everyone get a little more bonus. For the sake of the gold coins, forget it. I’ll also find a few informers to help me out.
A moment later, everyone in the inspection department was mobilized. Their efficiency was unprecedented.
......
Xia ping ‘an and the people from the legal Division sat in a black carriage, from the Donggang District to the adjudicator Army’s main camp at Mt. Ping.
This was Xia Pingan’s second time entering the ping Mountain Camp, and he was feeling a little strange. The first time he came here, he was taking the assessment to join the adjudicator Army. He did not expect that he would be captured on his second time.
The black carriage from the legal Division drove into the ping Mountain Camp and finally arrived at a five-story building at the foot of the mountain. Its outer wall was made of gray-white granite.
There was a sign hanging on the door of the building-law and discipline supervisor of the judgement Army. These five words could make people in the judgement Army feel intimidated and tremble at the sight of them.
After getting out of the car, Xia Pingan was directly brought to the cold iron prison of the legal Division.
After being locked up for a few hours, when it was almost dark, Xia Pingan was taken out of the cell and directly brought to an interrogation room.
Two cold-looking Men in Black robes sat in the interrogation room and looked at Xia Pingan, who was sitting in the interrogation chair.
“Xia ping ‘an, do you know your crime?”
The cold and oppressive voice echoed in the interrogation room.
Xia ping ‘an smiled, ” if it’s a crime to abide by the duties of the Donggang inspector, to disregard personal honor and death to protect the dignity of the great Shang Kingdom’s laws and the adjudicator Army, to suppress evil and protect the people, then I’m indeed guilty. Furthermore, I’m guilty of a great crime. The entire adjudicator Army is guilty as well.
The interrogators were stunned and didn’t know what to say.
After a few seconds of silence, one of the interrogators slammed the table and said, ” you still dare to deny it? ”
“How am I quibbling?”
“Then why did you barge into the Huang residence today and even kill the Huang residence’s steward?”
“I chased the murderer to the Huang residence. Is that considered trespassing? Other than the Imperial City, I don’t know any place in Shangjing that the adjudicator Army can’t enter when investigating a case. I don’t know when the inspectors of the adjudicating Army couldn’t even enter the governor’s mansion to reveal their identity and had to deal with cases according to the governor’s mansion’s servant’s attitude.
If there’s such a rule in the law enforcement Army and the great Shang Empire, please take it out and I’ll plead guilty. As for killing the Huang family’s housekeeper, I admit that I was the one who killed him. However, before I killed him, he attacked me first and stopped me from entering the mansion to search. His actions had already threatened my life and safety. I was acting in self-defense. On this point, the numerous guards of the Huang family and the people from the Donggang inspector Bureau can testify. If the law and supervision Department thinks that the members of the judicial Army and the inspection department should stick their heads out when someone puts a knife on their neck and doesn’t fight back when they are obstructed and threatened when they go out to handle a case, I’m also guilty, so you can punish me however you want!”
There was another few seconds of silence.
“Then why did you kill Huang Wei on the street?”
I remember that there is a rule in the ruling Army that if someone tries to break a prisoner and the prisoner tries to escape, the person who is escorting the prisoner can be dealt with at the right time. Killing the prisoner is not a crime!
