Catching Monsters

Chapter 67 I will remember your kindness

Hearing Jiang Yun's words, Xu Suwen and Xu Xiaogang, the brother and sister in the room, hurried to the window and watched what was happening outside.

Xu Xiaogang's face darkened, and he couldn't help but say, "What is Wei Huaian doing? He wouldn't let Zhao Chongfeng escape, would he?"

Xu Suwen frowned tightly and said, "It seems that this is possible."

"What do they do? We have captured them, tied them up and handed them over to him." Xu Xiaogang's face changed: "How can they get away with this?"

Jiang Yun's face was calm, and he said, "Okay, let's have a meal. Anyway, you have handed the person over to him."

"He was the one who lost the person. It has nothing to do with you two. Eat when you need to, and sleep when you need to."

At the same time, in the dungeon of the government office, Wei Huaian was feeling uneasy, pacing back and forth, looking at his subordinates beside him from time to time.

Once this matter is reported, I will lose everything, not to mention my future.

"Come here." Wei Huaian waved to a Jinyiwei: "You were the one who was recording what Zhao Chongfeng said just now, right?"

"Yes, sir." The Jinyiwei nodded.

Wei Huaian took a deep breath and said in a cold voice: "This group of people want to rebel. I don't believe that he is the only traitor in such a big Nanzhou Prefecture!"

"Sir, what do you mean?" The subordinate frowned, flipped through the list, glanced at it, and was a little frightened: "Sir, most of the people recorded here are high-ranking officials in Nanzhou Prefecture. If we arrest them all..."

Wei Huaian said in a cold voice: "So what if they are dignitaries? These traitors are colluding with dignitaries..."

At this point, Wei Huaian paused and took a deep breath: "Don't touch those on the list who are officials of high rank. Bring all the others back for questioning!"

Most of them are rich men or small characters.

These people are delicate and fragile, and they will definitely not be able to withstand the methods of the Jinyiwei.

Although Zhao Chongfeng escaped, as long as a few more "traitors" can be interrogated, we can give an explanation to the higher-ups.

The Jinyiwei beside him naturally understood what Wei Huaian meant. He reminded him in a low voice: "Master General Banner, if this matter of treason is escorted to the capital and he changes his testimony, it will be disadvantageous to you."

If it were any other case, it wouldn't be a big deal to just grab two scapegoats, and it was not something that the Jinyiwei had not done before.

But matters like treason must be reported to Your Majesty in detail.

Your Majesty will also pay special attention.

In this kind of situation, finding a scapegoat is a big taboo and is even more of an attempt to deceive Your Majesty.

Wei Huaian said in a deep voice: "Is this list obtained by Zhao Chongfeng through torture?"

Jinyiwei heard this and nodded slowly: "Yes."

"Isn't that right? It is only natural to arrest and interrogate the people on the list that the traitors found out."

"Arrests!"

"Yes."

The next morning, Qian Buchou woke up from his sleep in the courtyard of the government office. The wine he drank last night was particularly intoxicating.

He opened the door and was about to breathe some fresh air, but unexpectedly, he saw a strange Jinyiwei standing in the yard.

"Hey, sir, what's the matter?"

"You have no worries about money. You're the chief constable of Nanzhou Prefecture, right?" The Jinyiwei, who was about thirty years old, asked with a list in his hand.

Qian Buchou chuckled and nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, yes, it's me. What do you want, sir?"

"Come with me."

Soon, Qian Buchou followed the Jinyiwei to the dungeon and walked inside.

Qian Buchou felt strange and followed behind, whispering, "Sir, your Jinyiwei's big shot is investigating a case inside, it's not convenient for me to go in."

"Just follow me if I tell you to. Don't talk nonsense."

"Yes, yes, yes." Although Qian Buchou was indignant, he did not dare to refute and entered the dungeon respectfully.

As soon as I entered, I saw a lot of familiar faces.

"Hey, isn't this Master Qin? How did you get to the dungeon? Hey, are you colluding with the rebels?"

"Hey, Miss Yixiang, Miss Pingping, Madam Xu, you guys are here at Weichunlou for a reunion? I told you that your Weichunlou is a den of thieves."

"Mr. Zhu, why are you here too? I didn't expect that you, with your thick eyebrows and big eyes, are also..."

The entire dungeon was packed to the brim, and every cell was filled with people.

The Jinyiwei took Qian Buchou to a relatively empty cell, where there were only three people. He opened the door and said, "Go in."

Qian Buchou glanced at the person inside and smiled awkwardly: "Sir, what are you talking about? I am the head of the police station."

"You don't want to go in, right? If you don't go in, I'll interrogate you first." The Jinyiwei was a little impatient.

“I’ll go in, I’ll go in…” Upon hearing this, Qian Buchou hurriedly went into the dungeon, thinking to himself that something was wrong.

At the same time, in the Jiang family courtyard, Jiang Yun was sitting cross-legged in the house practicing. Suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps outside the courtyard.

"This person is good at Taoism, so proceed with caution."

Jiang Yun opened his eyes instantly and looked outside the house. It turned out that there were four Jinyiwei coming.

dong dong dong.

"Open the door."

Jiang Yun felt something was wrong, so he grabbed a few talismans in his hand and then stood up to open the door.

"Jiang Yun, right?" The leading Jinyiwei, who was in his early thirties, introduced himself: "My name is Qi Da, we met in the dungeon yesterday."

Jiang Yun clasped his fists and asked, "What can I do for you?"

"According to Zhao Chongfeng's confession yesterday, you are considered an accomplice and I will take you back for trial." Qi Da said, glancing at Jiang Yun's hand: "I know you know some Taoist magic, but it's best not to do anything reckless."

"I was just following orders, sorry."

After the criminal escaped yesterday, he was framed?

But he had captured Zhao Chongfeng. If Wei Huaian had any brains, he wouldn't frame him, right?
Thinking of this, Jiang Yun did not resist.

He knew that these Jinyiwei were all very skilled, and he had no chance of defeating them even if four of them joined forces.

What's more, what would it matter even if these four Jinyiwei were defeated?

If you resist arrest, the problem will become even bigger.

Soon, a Jinyiwei escorted Jiang Qiaoqiao out of the kitchen where she was making a fire and cooking.

Seeing this scene, Jiang Qiaoqiao hurriedly said, "Sir, what have we done wrong? I have silver at home. How much do you want?"

"Brother Qi, shall we take this girl back with us?" The Jinyiwei who was traveling with them looked at Qi Da.

Jiang Yun's face changed slightly, he still couldn't figure out what was going on.

If she were taken back for trial, Jiang Qiaoqiao would not be able to endure the torture methods.

He took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "I have a good relationship with Xu Suwen and Xu Xiaogang in the Jinyiwei. Lord Qi, please take me back."

"Master Qi, I will remember your kindness."

Qi Da frowned slightly, and after thinking for a moment, he slowly walked to Jiang Qiaoqiao's side and whispered, "If you want your brother to survive, quickly inform Xu Suwen and tell him that Jiang Yun was taken away by our Jinyiwei."

After he finished speaking, Qi Da waved his hand and said, "Alright, there's no such thing as a little girl. Jiang Yun is the only one in this yard. Take him away."
