Damn it, I'm in the garbage book I wrote

Chapter 567: Tie It Up

Actually, kidnapping is not so bad in recent years. When it was more chaotic in the past few years, there were no more than two cases every day. Kidnappers usually don't ask for much, just fifty or eighty taels, which is something that an ordinary well-off family can scrape together.

The kidnappers are not stupid. Who would kidnap someone from a poor family for no reason? Even if they wanted sex, they would not go after those poor people. After all, the poor are not qualified to give birth to excellent genes. Those poor girls are not all ugly, but most of them are too ordinary, with small eyes, flat noses, malnutrition and yellow hair. Few people can eat unless they are starving. What's more, where is Jinling?
That was the biggest place for fireworks in the world. From 200-cent fast food in the alleys to thousands of dollars a day in the royal yachts, they had everything. There was no need to rob or rape anyone, and rape was a felony. There was no need to get yourself into trouble for the stuff that was all over the place.

But there are always exceptions. If everything went according to plan, wouldn’t this world be too boring?

When Li Mi left here, the Queen Mother did not wait too long. She put on her clothes and walked out of the room quickly, still dressed in men's clothes.

Such an outfit would be very eye-catching in other places. After all, her ineffective disguise as a man is simply a joke. But in this place it is too normal. Don't think about where this place is. It is the holy land of the Hehuan Sect. A room is opened up, and no one will care even if you bring a Bengal monitor lizard here.

The Queen Mother hurried downstairs, but before she reached the door, the "Second Master" downstairs had already received the news.

At this moment, he stood up, staggered drunkenly to a table, and hugged a local thug by the neck: "Okay, you've lost more than four hundred taels, don't play anymore."

The thug glanced at Cha Er impatiently. The second master estimated the time in his mind and coughed: "Come on, accompany your second brother to go out and pee."

The thug who was so angry about losing didn't say anything. He stood up and followed Cha Er out. Just when the two of them walked out of the hall and came to the back to start playing, they saw six men with hawk-like eyes standing not far from the side door.

The scoundrel said as he drained the water: "Second brother, this must be some important person who is here to have some fun."

"Stop asking."

Just as he put on his trousers and was about to go back, the Queen came down. She looked around and happened to see the Second Master and the rascal strolling there. She almost instinctively turned her face to the other side, and the guards hurried forward to drive Cha Er away.

"Hey, hey, hey, what are you doing? Is this your place?"

The one who came out with Cha Er was a well-known young man. He was very unhappy to be pushed like this. He waved his hands to resist, but how could his mediocre skills compare with the spies around the queen? Those people didn't even treat him as a human being. They went up and pierced the boy with a sharp spike.

He fell to the side without struggling for even a second. The two guards who had attacked him immediately ran towards Cha Er, but Cha Er, who should have run away in fear, did not move. He just stood there without moving.

He smiled and spread out his hands. The two guards were a little dazed for a moment, but in a flash, a barely perceptible whistling sound was heard in the air, and then the two men were nailed to the ground by the crossbow.

The remaining few people suddenly became panicked.

"Escort!"

But it was too late. A series of steel crossbows were fired in their direction. At this distance, not to mention humans, even cats would have no time to react.

In an instant, several guards fell to the ground. The queen was so frightened that she even forgot to run away and just stood there in a daze.

Cha Er walked up and tilted his head to look at the queen: "Your Majesty, I'm sorry for wronging you."

After saying that, he pressed the back of the queen's neck and she quickly fainted. Then several men in black rushed out from the darkness, carrying the queen and quickly disappeared into the night.

At this moment, Cha Er pulled out a crossbow arrow shot from the tree and stabbed it directly into his shoulder. Then he rolled and crawled into the lobby.

"Murder! Murder! Help!"

A scream pierced the night sky of Jinling, and the sound of New Year's firecrackers could not cover up the messy footsteps on the street.

First, people from Jingzhao Prefecture came, and then the Yang family, who were the owners of the brothel, also came. When they shone the torches over, everyone was immediately scared silly. There was a pile of corpses lying on the ground in all directions.

What’s even more terrifying is that badges from the imperial palace were found on these corpses.

At that moment, Jingzhao Prefecture knew that he had gotten into trouble. What could he do? He could only notify the Investigation Department immediately.

The Investigation Department also arrived very quickly, led by the department's spy chief Zhang Zhongchun. He entered the relatively remote backyard and looked around.

"All those outsiders, please leave!"

Zhang Zhongchun raised his hand, and the spy from the Investigation Department immediately drew his sword. Everyone at the scene scattered, leaving only some high-ranking officials in Jingzhao Prefecture.

Jingzhao Yin and the first-class chief constable.

Old Zhang stood with his hands on his hips looking at the bodies lying all over the scene, his face looking very ugly.

"Who's missing?"

Jingzhao Yin stepped forward and asked quietly, but Lao Zhang just looked at him coldly and said, "Sir, prepare to have your entire family executed."

After saying this, he picked up the token on the guard's body and said, "Please take a look."

When the prefect took it and looked at it, his blood pressure almost exploded on the spot, and he almost fell down. This token is the token of the palace, and it is a token for walking in the harem.

It can be basically concluded that it is either a concubine or the queen herself. It would be fine if it was somewhere else, but where is this place? A place for visiting brothels and drinking wine, and a concubine from the harem appeared here...

"What should we do? What should we do?" Jingzhao Yin grabbed the corner of Lao Zhang's clothes: "This matter... This is a huge matter!"

Old Zhang looked up and looked around, then pointed at several rooftops around him and said, "The criminals must be lying in ambush here."

"Master Zhang, why are you still thinking about this?"

"My order is to investigate the case. The twists and turns of the case are not my business." Old Zhang frowned and said, "Sir, what should you do when such a big thing happens under your jurisdiction?"

By noon, the news in the palace had spread out that the person missing was none other than the Empress.

This is a lively scene. The Queen was kidnapped in the remote backyard of the brothel, and several palace guards were shot dead there.

There was only one surviving witness at the scene.

"At that time, I saw that Liu Ergou had lost a lot of money, so I wanted to ask him to come out and take a piss to change his luck. Just after he finished peeing, I saw a man coming down from above, and we were curious about which big shot he was, who had such a big scene. But who knew that after just one look, those people came to chase him away. Liu Ergou was young and hot-tempered, and he had lost money, so he had a conflict with them. One of the tall men stabbed Liu Ergou to death in one go. When they came to kill me, they were shot to death, and one of them even shot me."

It was Cha Er who spoke. He had a bandage on his shoulder and a look of panic on his face. "Then I rushed in and said someone was murdered. It was me who asked them to report it to the authorities."

Old Zhang lowered his eyes and looked Cha Er up and down. "Then let me ask you, why is it that the crossbow arrows on other people's bodies penetrated through, but only penetrated a few inches of your flesh?"

Cha Er lowered his eyes: "I don't know."

Lao Zhang nodded: "I know, the crossbow arrow deflected after it brushed against a nearby tree and hit you."

"Oh... I see." Cha Er was shocked: "Then... then... can the hole be left?"

"Nonsense." Lao Zhang sneered, "Don't ask me to clean up your mess next time, understand?"

"Thank you for saving my life..."

Lao Zhang raised his head and waved at him: "Go away."

After Cha Er left, Lao Zhang came out. The lobby of the Investigation Bureau was full of people. People of all sizes gathered here, and everyone's face was panicked and anxious.

"No clues."

Lao Zhang shook his head and said, "I checked several times. That man was just a scumbag who came out to relieve himself, and the man who was killed was just an ordinary thug."

"But who would kidnap the Queen?"

"The question now is why the Queen would appear in such a place!" Old Zhang slapped his hand on the table: "My Lords, can anyone give me an explanation? Why would the Queen appear there?"

Just at this moment, a report came from outside - Duke Anguo has arrived!
Duke Anguo was the Empress' biological father and a member of a large family. Emperor Jingtai relied heavily on his resources to ascend to the throne.

At this moment, Duke Anguo arrived in person, and everyone present behaved very respectfully.

After he came here, he sat down in his seat with a sullen look on his face.

Just as Lao Zhang said just now, the kidnapping of the queen is a big deal, but the bigger issue is why the queen of a country would appear in such a dirty place.

"At this moment, only those present here know about this. If anyone else outside knows about this, don't blame me for being rude." Duke Anguo said coldly, "Now that things have come to this, you should immediately rescue the queen from the hands of the thieves."

Old Zhang cursed in a low voice, and it happened that the Duke of Anguo heard it. He turned his head and looked at Old Zhang: "Master Zhang, are you upset? This is your job."

At this moment, Old Zhang did not indulge him. He just tilted his head and smiled and said, "Duke Anguo, there is something I must investigate right now. I don't know if I should investigate it."

"Of course it's checked."

"Okay." Old Zhang narrowed his eyes: "I want to find out why the Queen appeared in that fireworks place on New Year's Eve, otherwise I won't be able to start at all."

"No!" Duke Anguo shouted angrily, "How can you be asked to investigate such a matter? Naturally, our country's palace will investigate it."

Lao Zhang spread his hands and said, "Okay, the Investigation Department will withdraw from the investigation."

"You!" Duke Anguo stood up and said, "How dare a mere fourth-rank official act so arrogantly in front of me?"

At this moment, a voice came from outside: "Hey, who is it? You have such a powerful authority. Let me see who it is."
