"9th master, the corpses have all been examined. The scene has not been damaged, and no property has been lost.”
A constable who was about the same age as the middle-aged constable, but was much stronger than the middle-aged constable, walked over and asked. He had a scar on his left cheek.
Before Zhang Jiuling could say anything, an old scholar came in. This old scholar had shifty eyes.
Seeing the corpses and scarlet blood on the ground, his face turned pale.
The two middle-aged constables snorted and turned their heads away, not wanting to look at him.
It was as if one more look would dirty their eyes.
The old scholar came to Zhang Jiuling's side, cleared his throat, and said in an authoritative tone,""Constable Zhang, the magistrate asked me to call you!”
"Lead the way."
Zhang Jiuling said directly.
His subordinates did not like this old scholar, and he did not like him either.
If it wasn't for the magistrate's protection, the old scholar would have been beheaded more than ten times for what he had done in private.
The magistrate's residence was brightly lit.
It was obvious that the Fuwei Bodyguard Agency's extermination case had shocked this great master of Fuzhou so much that he couldn't sleep.
The magistrate's surname was Xu, Xu Ren.
His name was benevolent, but the things he did were despicable.
Embezzlement of public funds, rape of women, disregard for human lives…He had done almost all the bad things.
However, he looked very kind and always had a smile on his face. At first glance, he was very likable and would unconsciously let down his guard.
It was a stark contrast to the old scholar.
Seeing Zhang Jiuling, Xu Ren immediately asked,""How's the situation at the scene?"
"The people are still watching, but no one is within thirty steps of the Bodyguard Agency!”
"None of the valuables have been lost, and the corpses have been counted!”
"Oh!"
Xu Ren nodded." Then I'm relieved. Thank you for your hard work, Constable Zhang."”
That was it?
Zhang Jiuling looked at Xu Ren in surprise and frowned.""Magistrate, are we not going to investigate the murderer?”
Before Xu Ren could say anything, the old scholar smiled and said,""Constable Zhang, did you take the wrong medicine?”
"How powerful is Fu Wei Bodyguard Agency? The sect was destroyed overnight, no, in two hours. I don't think I need to tell you who the other party is, right?”
"Investigate? How could the magistrate and yamen investigate? At that time, they might even destroy our magistrate's office!”
"Are you trying to drag the magistrate to his death?”
"Or do you want to use the life of the Magistrate to achieve your reputation as a Divine Constable?”
"Oh, right, I heard that when the Fu Wei Bodyguard Agency was destroyed, Constable Zhang was drinking wine in the Spring Courtyard of Pinching Flower Alley. Constable Zhang must have lost his mind after drinking wine!”
Although he said it with a smile, the content was full of gems!
Especially that last sentence, it seemed like he was complaining to Xu Ren.
Zhang Jiuling knew why the old scholar did this. One of the old scholar's nephews was also a fourth-realm martial artist. The old scholar had his eyes on the position of constable and wanted his nephew to take the position.
This way, the uncle and nephew would be able to earn money more unscrupulously.
In the seven days that he had transmigrated, Zhang Jiuling had heard his subordinates report to him more than once that the old scholar was looking for trouble with him again or that he was complaining to Xu Ren about him again.
However, he was a fourth-realm martial artist at that time. In addition, the old scholar did not report him to his face, so he did not find trouble with the old scholar.
But now!
Zhang Jiuling immediately drew his saber and chopped off the old scholar's head. He rolled to a corner.
Fresh blood spurted out!
Xu Ren was scared silly!
Zhang Jiuling was also not used to it. After all, it was his first time killing someone.
But he couldn't show his cowardice, or it would be too much of a slap to his face.
"Magistrate, let's get straight to the point. You've set your eyes on Fuwei Bodyguard Agency's wealth and want to make a big deal out of it, I have no objections!”
"But as the constable of Fuzhou City, I will not turn a blind eye to this matter.”
"I won't care about you embezzling the Fu Wei Bodyguard Agency's money and title deed, and you don't need to care about me catching the murderer.”
Xu Ren came back to his senses and looked at Zhang Jiuling in shock.
When he was young, he had learned kung fu.
Therefore, he had a certain level of insight.
Although Zhang Jiuling's attack was a surprise attack, its speed, strength, and accuracy did not seem like something a fourth-realm martial artist could do.
"You are now…"
"Eighth Realm Martial Artist!"
Zhang Jiuling did not hide anything from him.
Xu Ren immediately looked envious.
Entering the Ethereal Enlightenment Realm meant having a first-rate internal art.
Cultivating a first-rate internal art could extend one's lifespan by at least twenty years!
Therefore, Tongxuan realm was also known as the Hundred Year realm!
However, Xu Ren knew that he was not talented enough. Even if he was given a first-class internal energy, he might not be able to successfully practice it.
Putting away his envy and shock, Xu Ren looked at the old scholar's corpse. He did not blame Zhang Jiuling at all.
A trusted aide who had been used for many years was really not worth mentioning when compared to a Common Mysterious expert.
