Chapter 150: Shock
At night, a panicked firefighting sound began to spread throughout Chengtie Town.
Countless civilians with sleepy-eyed and hazy expressions, hastily put on their clothes and walked out of their respective houses, and they were greeted by a fire that rose into the sky, and looked in the direction of one of the four major chambers of commerce in the town.
On the side of the four major chambers of commerce, Christopher and his entourage of Yiyang Commercial Bank looked at the Haoyue Chamber of Commerce on fire with shocked expressions, and then calmed down and ordered some of the guys to see if there were signs of fire in their homes, so that most of the guys hurriedly joined the ranks of fighting the fire.
Although they usually don't look at each other, this is a matter of human life and a huge amount of wealth, and the situation in the Haoyue Chamber of Commerce is unknown, and it is easy to fall into the truth if you don't send someone to fight the fire.
The defenders of the town were also alarmed, and many soldiers carried buckets of water to extinguish the fire before they were fully clothed, and the fire grew bigger and bigger, as if the water poured on it was oil, and there was no way to extinguish it.
Everyone looked at the overwhelming fire and could only pour buckets of water on the fire in vain.
The town guard couldn't stand it anymore and ordered the sergeant to stop putting out the fire and demolish the surrounding buildings that had not yet been damaged.
For a while, the battle was full of air, and the buildings close to the Haoyue Chamber of Commerce were demolished, and many civilians among them stupidly watched their homes being demolished by the garrison, and began to cry in a daze.
Fortunately, the judgment of the town guard was correct, there was no way to control the fire at all, and after igniting the scattered buildings around it, there was no backup to burn, and the scope of the fire was only one place in the Haoyue Chamber of Commerce, and it did not spread on a large scale.
The fire burned all night, and it was not slowly extinguished until the next morning, and the whole air was filled with a smell of burning, and except for a few pillars that had not completely collapsed, the Haoyue Chamber of Commerce no longer existed.
The guys of the Haoyue Chamber of Commerce were all lost and depressed, and the place where a group of people relied to make a living was wiped out overnight, and the president Zongshengxi did not know where to go, leaving a group of people without a backbone, and they didn't know where to go.
The guys of the Lieyang Chamber of Commerce looked at Haoyue gloatingly, although it was in a town, but usually the guys of several major chambers of commerce still didn't like each other, and at this time, seeing that the Haoyue Chamber of Commerce had completely disappeared, the guys felt at ease.
Hurry up and tell the shopkeeper the news, presumably the president will die of joy.
Everyone thought so, and then rushed to open the door of their own chamber of commerce, wanting to be the first to tell the good news to the shopkeeper to get a reward.
"Ah, the shopkeeper is dead! he has killed!" a bunch of screams of astonishment rang out in the crowd.
The Chamber of Commerce was in shambles, countless tables, chairs and benches were split by sharp knives and scattered to the ground, behind the counter, Andrei Urir died behind the counter, a hideous and twisted face glowing with horror, a terrible wound in his throat, blood spilled everywhere, and the wound had coagulated.
Christopher didn't sleep all night, thinking that the Haoyue Chamber of Commerce that was his opponent turned into ashes overnight, Christopher didn't feel sleepy, and at this time, he also dragged his tired body to sit at the door of the Chamber of Commerce, and before they could rest, there was a deafening roar inside the Burning Sun Chamber of Commerce.
"Urir was killed?"
After so many years in the business, how could Christopher not know that there was a problem with these two things.
"Go, call the town guard over, and the others will do whatever they want!"
After realizing the severity of the problem, Christopher immediately linked these two things to the safety of his own chamber of commerce.
Soon, the town guard and his men cordoned off the two places.
During his tenure, there was such a problem in the town's public security, and as a town guard, if this matter was not handled well, what awaited him would be a bleak official career.
After the town guard entered the Burning Sun Chamber of Commerce and ordered everyone to be cleared, the town guard began to investigate the scene.
"Well, the fight was fierce, and there were scratches of vindictiveness everywhere. It seems that the strength of the murderer is not to be underestimated!"
The sergeants began to carefully search for evidence that might be relevant to the case.
"My lord, look at the mark on the pillar," a lieutenant pointed to the indentation on the pillar with a gloomy face.
A hovering dragon that was about to fly was vividly imprinted on the pillar, with two horns on its head and four giant claws on its body, all of which were taken by its momentum.
"Well, this is the mark of the Divine Punishment of the Haoyue Empire!"
The guard looked at the mark with a pale face, and it took a long time for him to slowly spit out a word that frightened all the sergeants.
"This matter can't be delayed, the news involving the Divine Punishment Organization must be reported to the City Guard of the Falling Studios as much as possible, this is no longer a case that we can handle, the Divine Punishment Organization has committed crimes in the empire one after another, and all of the people who died were big people with heads and faces, and this Andrei Urier died when he died. But if I get involved in such a behemoth as divine punishment, how can I keep up with Shangfeng and explain it!"
The Haoyue Chamber of Commerce on the front foot was burned, Zong Shengxi didn't know where to go, and the Burning Sun Chamber of Commerce on the back foot Wurier was stabbed, what is the connection between the two?
Forget it, this is no longer something that can be solved within one's ability, save the crime scene first, and wait for the people above to come over and make a decision.
Thinking of this, the town guard immediately ordered the sergeant to drive away all the idle people and others, seal the shop, and send a team of soldiers to wait day and night, and then take the guys from the Scorching Sun Chamber of Commerce back to inquire in detail.
After hearing the town's request for help, the garrison mining next to the town realized the severity of the problem for a while, and the garrison general personally sent troops to maintain order in the town.
For a while, the wind was loud, and everyone in the town was panicked.
A sound transmission scroll slowly burned, sending the qiē that happened here to the Falling Shadow City, which was hundreds of miles away.
In the Falling Studios, Kane had just finished receiving a wave of aristocrats who had come to have a relationship with him, and sat in his backyard with tea to watch a few grandchildren show the results of their practice in the courtyard.
I have to say that after the famous family, he does have an unparalleled advantage over the commoners, he uses the best weapons and magic staffs, eats brocade clothes and jade food, and even teaches and learns the high-level magicians and war king-level generals in the family.
Kane nodded frequently at his grandchildren's watch, a look of satisfaction on his face.
Now Kane is comfortable, not only was he not punished for his dereliction of duty on this bet, but because Prince Duanmu valued Han Feng a lot of benefits, half of the Han Wei family's property, haha I finally came to the bitter end.
Steven is much more honest now. Speaking of Han Feng, Stephen is now afraid, thinking of the scene when he was opposed to Han Feng and Han Weiyu's death, he can't forget it for a long time, he was jealous of Han Feng's talent, so he made a ghost mess with Han Weiyu and tried his best to contact the noble students to put pressure on Han Feng.
But who would have thought that Qi Yue was not only Han Feng's maid, in addition to the value of the dean, Yu Chi Jing of the Magic Guild actually killed Han Wei Yuzhi directly for Qi Yue and accepted Qi Yue as an apprentice.
Grandfather not only beat himself half to death for the trouble he caused, but also had to take the heavy salute and run towards the academy and the magic guild, which eliminated the hostility between the two sides, this time the collapse of the Hanwei family, and the parents also talked to Han Feng in private.
Oh my God, what is the background of this Han Feng, it is not enough to die a Han Wei Yuzhi, and now the entire Han Wei family has taken it......
Now even if Steven has the courage to do anything, he doesn't dare to have any thoughts about Han Feng anymore, let alone hostility, even if he doesn't have any ideas.
Han Feng is now a big mountain in Stephen's eyes, a big mountain that he can never push down.
Before Kane finished drinking the cup of tea in his hand, a magic scroll appeared next to Kane out of thin air, and with the transmission of the message of the Chengtie Town Guard, Kane's face was no longer as relaxed as before, and his face was solemn.
