The next day.
It was still at the headquarters of Six Fan School.
Wu Qing and Ling Feng reported the clues they found yesterday to Zhuge Zhengwo.
The Three Heads of Six Fan School couldn't help but frown.
"Looks like things aren't as simple as they seem."
"Brother Zhuge, I think we can combine this case with the Bronze Model Case.”
"What do you think?"
Liu Jiyan put forward his own opinion.
Guo Juxia nodded.
Zhuge Zhengwo saw that both of them had the same intention, so he spoke up.
"You guys did well. You found the key clue to the Bronze Model Case.”
"Yesterday, when they were investigating the case, they also encountered that kind of monster.”
"It seems that this is the divine weapon technique of the West Region's Kingdom of Ji.”
Zhuge Zhengwo paused for a moment, then stared at Ling Feng and asked.
"What do you think?"
He was slightly stunned.
Aren't you asking the wrong person?
Shouldn't he be asking about Ruthless?
After confirming that Old Man Zhuge was asking him, Ling Feng touched his chin and said.
"Before I came, I asked the constables on the street.”
"That dock belongs to the Andersons."
"I wonder if the three lords dare to investigate?”
An family?
Upon hearing this name, the three of them were all stunned.
The Andersons were not related to the royal family.
However, Zhuge Zhengwo and the others did not dare to arrest them openly without concrete evidence.
The reason was simple.
The royal family needed a home.
To be precise, the royal family needed money.
War, disaster relief, repairing the river embankment…
This would cost the national treasury a lot of money every year.
And every time the national treasury was in need, the emperor would borrow money from others.
There were only three people in the world who could take out so much money.
An Yunshan from the capital, Zhu Fugui from Luoyang, and the 130 million officials.
Therefore, Zhuge Zhengwo and the others didn't dare to make a move against these three people.
Even Cao Zhengchun, the supervisor of the East Hall, and Zhu Budian, the Iron-guts Divine Marquis of the Guarding Dragon Mountain Villa, had to give him some face.
After all, who in the world would have a problem with money?
"We can investigate the case, but we can't touch the Andersons before we have conclusive evidence.”
"I don't have to say more than that, right?”
Ling Feng also understood.
In this world where imperial power was supreme.
There were many things that could not be decided by the criminal law.
"How about this, I suggest that you replace Ya Yu and investigate the case with Zhui Ming and the others.”
"Yayu, what do you think?"
Old man Zhuge's words were obviously not good.
Ling Feng was just about to retort when Wu Qing said,"
"I have no objections. It just so happens that he knows how to deal with this kind of divine weapon technique.”
"Hmm, then it seems that I didn't choose the wrong person.”
The two of them echoed each other and did not give him a chance to refuse at all.
Guo Juxia and Liu Jiyan also agreed.
Together, they declared that they would appoint him to investigate the case for Ruthless.
The three magnates had already decided, what could Ling Feng do?
However, accepting a case was one thing.
The conditions still needed to be discussed.
Otherwise, wouldn't he suffer a loss?
"Milords, I'm a black-clothed constable, but I'm doing the work of a gold-clothed constable.”
"I don't get any benefits from solving the case.”
The three of them looked at each other and revealed a malicious smile at the same time.
"Then what do you want to do?"
"The standard for promotion to a gold-robed constable is at least the late stage of the Xiantian realm.”
"You're only at the early Xiantian level, you don't even have the qualifications to be promoted to a silver-robed constable.”
Ling Feng knew what they were talking about.
Besides, he didn't want to be promoted for the time being.
Becoming a gold-robed constable was indeed impressive.
But there were many things to do.
Moreover, they were all handling major cases.
The culprit they were facing was not only someone in the Xiantian realm.
It was common for them to be at the grandmaster level.
The probability of dying in the line of duty was very high.
He didn't want to do this kind of work so early.
"I don't care if I get promoted or not, but I have to pay more.”
His words made Liu Jiyan spit out a mouthful of tea.
Old Guo was still alright. He covered his mouth and laughed non-stop.
Only Zhuge Zhengwo, who was familiar with him, did not lose his composure.
He straightened his posture and said,"Cough, how about this?"”
"This case is quite special and involves a lot of money.”
"After the case is solved, a portion of the dirty silver will be reduced and distributed to Six Fan School.”
"If your performance in this case is outstanding, I will reward you with a thousand taels.”
"Remember, it's about outstanding performance. If you don't work hard, you won't get paid!”
A thousand taels of silver was nothing to wealthy people like Wan Sanqian and An Yunshan.
However, for ordinary people, that was a huge sum of money.
It was already very good for an ordinary family to have a dozen taels of silver a year.
After getting the promise from the three old men, Ling Feng got up and pushed Wu Qing away.
"Brother Zhuge, you seem to think highly of Ling Feng?"”
Guo Juxia: " That's right. Brother Liu, didn't you see that Yayu has moved into this kid's house?"”
"There's an eighty percent chance that Brother Zhuge has the intention to take him as his son-in-law.”
After working together for so many years, who in Six Fan School didn't know that the chief constable treated Wu Qing like his own daughter?
"Sigh…I don't want to get involved in the matters of the young.”
"It's not all for Yayu that we're optimistic about this kid.”
"Cao Zhengchun of the East Chamber has gathered countless scum of the pugilistic world, and his power is growing.”
"The Dragon Guarding Mountain Villa has the Imperial Book, Iron Certificate, and Imperial Sword bestowed by the previous emperor.”
"The four secret agents of Heaven, Earth, Black, and Yellow are even more powerful.”
"Although our Six Fan School isn't too far behind, we lack a person among the younger generation who can shoulder the banner.”
"You can't let the three of us do everything, right?”
Liu Jiyan and Guo Juxia nodded in agreement.
Among the younger generation, it was a one-on-one fight.
Without a doubt, the four secret agents of the Guarding Dragon Mountain Villa were the most powerful.
Duan Tianya and Guihai Yidao were both mid-stage grandmasters.
It was said that the successor of the Invincible Wantong Gu Santong, Cheng Fei, had even cultivated the Indestructible Diamond Divine Art.
The moment that martial art was displayed, his entire body turned into a little golden man.
They were invulnerable to weapons, fire, and water.
Furthermore, he had boundless strength and invincible defense.
At the very least, they had to be at the late-stage of the grandmaster realm.
This was indeed not something the younger generation of the Six Fan School could compare to.
As for the East Chamber, they didn't want to talk about it.
Even though there weren't many outstanding experts.
However, there were many people who were good at using despicable methods.
Five Poisons of the West Mountain, Flower-picking Bees, Thousand-faced Playboy…
There was nothing good about the name alone.
Just like Cao Zhengchun!
P.S. The pace was a little slower, but he still shamelessly asked for a wave of feeding from the big shots.
Fresh flowers, monthly votes, evaluation votes, anything is good, little loser is not picky!
