Be thoughtful
"Finally, I don't have to take those boring classes!" Ji Ran threw up the agent card in his hand and caught it, he was very fast, and as soon as he got the agent card, he immediately went back to the academy and applied for registration with Tsushima.
The Inspectorate is not difficult to find, there are no buildings within five kilometers of it, and there is a plaque with three large characters on the main entrance.
The Inspectorate was able to have such a status because it was an institution directly under the central government, and it was the only one in the whole country of Xinli! Its jurisdiction was very large, and all the officials of the Central City and the Yaco City were under its supervision, and they were the only ones who were subject to the checks and balances of the state's deliberations.
It is precisely because of such a large amount of power that this institution was set up in the city of Jaco, so that the two forces of the new kingdom would be divided and confronted each other, and there would be no political chaos.
Walk to the main entrance.
In front of the gate there is a nine-story staircase, on each side of which stands a statue, fierce and vicious, with angry eyes, one holding a pestle in one hand, and the other holding a war hammer in both hands, showing teeth and claws, and feeling the majesty before stepping on the stairs.
Looking up the stairs, the gate is open, and you can see the layout of the courtyard through the door.
Stepping on the stairs, with each step, I felt that the eyes of the two statues staring at me became more vicious... Ji Ran couldn't help but shudder.
It is strange that in such a serious place, there is not even a person at the gate to control the passage, and he hesitated for a while before stepping in.
In the vestibule of the courtyard, there is a patio design, and light penetrates through this large opening to the sky to brighten the vestibule.
Looking around, the layout of the buildings here made Ji Ran a little dazzled.
Each courtyard is like the center point of an intersection, which can lead to all directions, and in each direction there is a black lacquered wooden door, as if each area is independent.
I have heard Mo Yan explain before that there are a total of five places in the Inspectorate, which are separated by three courtyards, the front court is the administrative department and the finance department, the atrium is the intelligence department and the armed department, and the back court is the criminal office, and these five places are all in the hands of Sha Zhenji, the president of the Inspectorate.
Although he knew that the intelligence department was located in the atrium, this corridor extending in all directions made Ji Ran really clueless, and he planned to call a staff member to inquire, but he didn't expect that no one would pay attention to him at all.
The people who came and went didn't have the slightest curiosity when they saw Ji Ran, a stranger pestle in front of the gate, they just walked by themselves. At this time, Ji Ran suddenly remembered what Mo Yan had said to him: "When you go to the Inspectorate tomorrow, remember to bring your detective card, the people inside only recognize their identities and do not recognize people!"
Ji Ran took out the detective card from his pocket at this time, flipped through a few pages and found a page with the seal of the Inspectorate, and after a closer look, the stamp was engraved with the words "Inspector of the Inspectorate".
"Someone should pay attention to me now." At this time, Ji Ran saw that there was a person behind him who had just entered the door, so he went up to stop him, and raised the detective card in his hand at the man, and the man leaned forward and looked at Ji Ran, "What's the matter?"
"It's really useful" Ji Ran breathed a sigh of relief at this time, "Finally someone paid attention to me, I want to ask, do you know where the archives of the intelligence department are?"
When the man heard this, he frowned, and walked away without paying attention to Ji Ran, ignoring no matter how he called.
"Why is this person so strange!" turned around and bumped into the clerk who was passing by, this person was more enthusiastic than the person who walked in front of him first, picked up the document on the ground and handed it to Ji Ran, as if he saw the stamp on the document, his tone was a little respectful and said, "Mr. Sicha.."
Ji Ran didn't react for a moment, and then thought of his identity before replying. "Hey, do you know where the archives of the Intelligence Division are?"
"Did Mr. Inspector just start his job today?"
"Why do you say that?"
"The inspector is a staff member of the Intelligence Division, and if you don't know, you can naturally conclude that you just arrived today."
"I see... Do you know where the intelligence service is?"
"Advance from the east gate of the vestibule to the atrium, and then advance from the north gate of the atrium to the intelligence department. However, the archives are at the south gate. I was supposed to take you there, but now that I'm in a hurry, I'll take my leave."
Ji Ran nodded and thanked the man, and followed his instructions to the atrium, but he planned to go to the archives first to report to the intelligence department, and then ask himself about his identity.
When he arrived at the archives, a civilian came up to stop Ji Ran and showed his ID before letting him go. This rumor is not recorded in the archives of the Inspectorate, and Ji Ran saw it today.
I was going to go in and look for it, but this archive room is too big, and the documents stored are also very large, and the head is a little swollen when I see the dense storage drawer, "I have to find the Year of the Monkey and the Moon!"
"The archives are formatted by year, and every six years we do a reorganization to destroy the useless materials. The inspector can tell me what I'm looking for, I've been working here for many years, and I have a lot of information about the location of all the documents. ”
"Has there been any reorganization in recent years?"
"It was reorganized just three years ago"
Ji Ran was suspicious and told the staff the information he was looking for, thinking of trying his luck, "Can you help me call up all the relevant information about Ji Wei and Lin Mohan?"
The staff shook his head when he heard this, "The information of these two people was lost three years ago, and they haven't been found yet..."
"How so, what happened, do you know the details?"
"I'm just a small clerical ... I don't know about that. The clerk said with some embarrassment.
"Then Liang Ye's, as well as Qin Lan's, Yan Bing's, Jiang Muqing's, do you know the location of these people's information?"
"Except for Liang Ye's, I can find out the other three... But these three people have not done much in recent years, so the information will be a one-time introduction, and it will not be of great use to you in investigating the case..."
"Since that's the case, then find me Yan Bing and Jiang Muqing..."Ji Ran not only wanted to collect information about his parents this time, but also wanted to investigate who would be the eyeliner placed by Mr. Huo.
The clerk nodded, walked into the stack of cabinets, and after hearing the sound of pulling the file drawers and a burst of footsteps, he walked over with a thin booklet. "It's all here"
Ji Ran snatched his hand and flipped through it, and sure enough, as the clerk said, it was just a one-time introduction, but Ji Ran still paid attention to a line in Yan Bing's profile. "Yan Bing only came to Jacques City two years ago!" But this line of words is really not useful information, even if it is Jacques City that he only came to Jacques City two years ago, it doesn't prove that he is the eyeliner planted by his side.
If that's the case, then the thing becomes terrifying... Predicting a person's future activities requires not only a strong ability to judge the situation but also an information network that extends in all directions, which can be seen that Mr. Huo is scheming, so there is definitely a lot of conspiracy behind this case!
However, what Ji Ran couldn't figure out was that if Mr. Huo was really as Ji Ran guessed, then why did he let that batch of goods be seized, it stands to reason that his actions should be clear to him.... The more I thought about it, the more outrageous I felt, and when I saw that I had no clue about it, I simply put it aside.
At this time, a civilian voice suddenly came from behind him, "Dean, why are you here?"
"Did the inspector come just now?"
"Still in the archives.."
"Good"
The civilian staff is very discerning, and quietly and deliberately avoids it.
Ji Ran turned around and saw an old man in a black Tang costume walking over, "You are Ji Ran?" asked tentatively.
"You are?"
Ji Ran looked at the person in front of him, with a white beard and cheeks, and an average appearance, but he had a pair of good eyebrows, as sharp as a sword, and he could see through people at a glance.
"Sha Zhenji, I heard that you found information about Ji Wei in the archives... What do you want to do?As a judge, don't you know that the files of these two people are top secret?" Sha Zhenji's tone was very serious, making Ji Ran not know how to explain it for a while.
Now it's not that he can't explain it, but he doesn't dare to explain it, once he says his true purpose, his identity will be exposed, but now in the situation, Ji Ran really doesn't know what to do, so he began to look for opportunities to escape.
But unexpectedly, Sha Zhenji laughed out loud when he saw Ji Ran so embarrassed, "Take it easy!" said and patted Ji Ran's tight shoulders, "I know who you are... I'm not your enemy" Seeing that Ji Ran was still very vigilant, "Sit down.." He gestured to the stool next to him.
Seeing that Ji Ran's brows relaxed slightly, he continued, "The eyebrows look like your father, with a fierce appearance, and the temperament is the same as your mother, acting indecisively and ruthlessly!" Sha Zhenji said, his eyes were full of regret.
"Liang Ye told you everything..."
Ji Ran nodded.
"I have a lot of ideas, I should have investigated this case, but now the central government is staring at my position, so I have no way to investigate this case, but I can help you!"
"What's the help?"
"I've found a very important clue in the past two years, and after that, whether or not you have found a clue about your parents, you must go to the Border Forest!"
"Why?"
"Your parents hid a chest in the Border Forest before, and the contents of that box are definitely an important key to solving the mystery of their two disappearances!"
"I know," Ji Ran thought about it again and said, "The people in your Inspectorate are so strange, just now when I was in the vestibule, I used the detective card, and one ignored me, but the other was respectful to me..."
"It's us, remember to change your words in the future! The person who ignores you must be a person of a higher level than you, and it is normal to ignore you! The person who guides you should be an ordinary inspector; the staff in the Inspectorate are from low to high level as inspectors, detectives, inspectors, inspectors, and supervisors."
"Is it appropriate for me to give me the position of inspector as soon as I come?"
"The authority of the inspector and the detective is not high, and the inspector is just right for you... At least have a say in the intelligence department!"
"So that's it... Then let's talk about the clues you just mentioned!" Ji Ran solved the doubts in his heart and brought the topic back to the topic.
"In the past two years, my people have been investigating privately, and they have synthesized all the clues to come to the conclusion that the disappearance of your parents has a great connection with that Mr. Huo!"
"Is that Mr. Huo who wants to kill me?"
"Exactly... You have his eyeliner by your side now, do you want to know?"
Ji Ran paused, and said with some hesitation: "Don't worry... This eyeliner is not in a hurry, you can use this eyeliner to make some articles...".
"Okay, I can't stay here for long, there's a meeting in Central City for me to go, you take care of your own safety." patted Ji Ran on the shoulder, Sha Zhenji shook his hand behind his back and left.
Ji Ran glanced at the time, "It seems that it's time to go to the intelligence department to report..."
