Chapter Twenty-Three: Noon
The two left Wangxiangtai.
Walking in the square outside, taking advantage of the gap between the people around, Bai Ruosu slowed down, walked to Yan Jing's side and asked softly,
"Did the underworld send you here just to investigate the incense robbery and stop the conspiracy of the Shintoists?"
Previously, in the middle of Wangxiang Terrace, the ghost's unusual actions made Bai Ruosu more and more sure that the identity of the soul warrior he contracted was special, even if the latter had not said a word since he left the Town Soul Palace.
Faced with Bai Ruosu's inquiry, Yan Jing still didn't mean to explain.
As a "messenger of the underworld", he has to maintain a cold personality, and now is not the time to take the initiative to speak.
The existence of the Shinto people made Yan Jing couldn't help but think of the Tai Sui organization that he had encountered in the Kunlun Mountains not long ago, although the two had different purposes, they were somewhat similar in what they did.
It is nothing more than trying to gain benefits for oneself by destabilizing it.
Yan Jing was looking forward to meeting this organization, and the main quest three and the repair of the halberd fragments were all pinned on them.
Seeing that the Soul Master still did not respond, Bai Ruosu was not discouraged, turned around and continued to walk forward.
The old butler of the White Mansion was still waiting outside the roadcar, carrying the two of them away.
Now that he had learned that the Shinto people were most likely planning a plot against the festival, he immediately began to contact his superiors within the lawsuit and relay the clues he had just obtained to them.
The results are not surprisingly highly valued.
As mentioned earlier, the Grand Festival is a major ritual that must be performed every year in the city.
For the tens of millions of ordinary people in the city, it may be just a grand procession and celebration, with a seven-day holiday and various entertainment programs, but in the eyes of the Three Priests and the Hades, the Great Festival is an important symbol and link of cooperation between the Hades and the Du.
Not only that, but the festival itself also plays an extremely important role in consolidating this heaven and earth.
This means that if the Shinto people can destroy the Great Festival, they will cause a lot of damage to both the capital and the underworld.
"I'm Bai Ruosu, how is the decipherment of the account books?"
Sitting in the back seat of the steam car, Bai Ruosu looked out the window of the sun-drenched city center and contacted his subordinates in the lawsuit.
"Preliminary proofreading is already underway, and I believe the results will be available soon."
"Okay, you guys wait for me at the Forensic Technology Bureau, and. Arrive in half an hour, pay attention to the surrounding situation, and be careful of the Shinto members who take risks and forcibly break into the evidence bureau to seize the account books. ”
Knowing that the results would be available soon, Bai Ruosu breathed a sigh of relief and immediately reminded him.
The Forensic Technology Bureau is independent of the yamen of the Three Law Divisions, and a large number of technical personnel are gathered in it, and its role is to assist the Three Law Divisions in solving cases and conducting various investigations.
At this critical juncture, there are only three days left before the festival.
This account book is the key clue for the Three Law Divisions to break through the incense robbery case, and it cannot be overly careful.
"Please rest assured, the judge has sent three teams to guard the vicinity of the Evidence Technology Bureau in advance, if those guys dare to come, they will not be able to eat and walk around!"
It was not only Bai Ruosu who was aware of the possible movements of the Shinto people, but the high-level judges were also aware of the importance of this account book, so they had already made targeted arrangements, and even prepared to use it to "fish".
Deliberately sending the books of accounts to an independent Forensic Technology Bureau.
What is waiting is that the Shinto people can't hold it back, come to snatch them, and then wipe them out.
Bai Ruosu on the steam car explained a few words and hung up the communication with confidence.
Since the judge has made preparations, she doesn't need to worry about it.
On the contrary, Yan Jing, who was sitting next to him, suddenly had some not-so-good intuition in his heart, but when he saw the bright sun outside, the steam car would arrive at its destination soon after, so he didn't say much.
It's a little more than twenty minutes by car.
No matter how you think about it, there will be no accidents.
At this time, the entrance of the Evidence Technology Bureau.
The young man in the judge's uniform hung up the communicator, turned to look at several companions next to him, and said,
"The patrol envoy will arrive in half an hour, it seems that the test has passed smoothly, it is really gratifying, and we will have to get together at a table later, how about it in the Qixian Building, the right is to celebrate the return of the patrol envoy to the trial!"
"Then there is no need to say, this thing is done today, and if you don't get drunk, you won't return."
The egg-faced girl looked excited, and the two scimitars at her waist swayed from side to side with her movements.
"I agree, there are my friends in the Qixian Building, good wine and good food are absolutely indispensable, and you can also book a good private room, the kind where you can see the hall dancing."
The middle-aged man on the side said with a smile.
The top boss went straight from the bronze medal patrol to the gold medal, and their old subordinates are naturally honored, and more importantly, at Bai Ruosu's age, they are sitting in the current position, and their future prospects are limitless.
Correspondingly, a position promotion must require cronies to follow, and what could be more suitable than these old subordinates?
If one person attains the Tao, it is not an exaggeration to use the chicken and dog to ascend to heaven in this case.
"Okay, let's talk about the dinner and wine later, what we have to do now is to get down to business first, whether we can decipher the account books is related to the important action in the next stage of the lawsuit, no matter what, there can be no accidents."
At this time, it was the deputy captain of Bai Ruosu's team who spoke, and Bai Ruosu was the one who contacted him in the ready-to-wear shop before, and seeing that the team members were a little relaxed their vigilance because they were happy, he reminded in a deep voice.
"Understood!"
Several people subconsciously responded.
"Jingqi, contact the team ambushed in the nearby street again, to ensure the safety of the surrounding Xiaohe, you go to the bureau and ask about the decipherment, once the decipherment work is completed, we must know as soon as possible, Lao Yu and I are guarding here, we are guards on the surface, and we have to do a good job on the surface."
Some time ago, Bai Ruosu was busy with his parents' funeral, and the affairs of the team were basically handled by him, the vice captain.
Now that Bai Ruosu is about to return, he naturally has to stand on this last shift.
There was no doubt about the importance of the account books, and the order of the deputy captain was given, and several people took action.
In order to avoid being detected by the Shinto people in advance, the Sanfa Division ambushed several teams in several streets outside the Evidence Technology Bureau, searching for suspicious people who might be members of the Shinto people.
The deputy captain stood at the door and looked at the street in front of him, the door of the teahouse on the left, the street performance on the right, and the window sill on the second floor of a restaurant not far from the side, all of which were their people.
"It's noon, and I don't think they're going to be so demented and choose to do it at a time like this."
Lao Yu, the eldest in the team, took out the cigarette gun on his waist and took a puff, leaned against the pillar outside the evidence technology bureau, enjoyed the comfort of the sun, and said softly.
The light gray smoke drifted in front of him, and the vice captain nodded, agreeing with Lao Yu's opinion.
Although he also arranged for the team members to confirm the surrounding situation just now, he actually didn't think that the other party would make a move at such a time, after all, the capital was still under the control of the underworld, and there were many strong people in the Three Law Divisions.
Even if Bai Ruosu had previously sensed that there might be internal ghosts in the Three Law Divisions, now this account book was being stared at by many parties, and anyone who dared to approach without permission would immediately attract attention.
If they were given some more time to successfully decipher it, it would be useless for the Shintoists to snatch it back.
At the thought of this, the deputy captain couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, what had happened in the recent period of time made him nervous, and when Bai Ruosu came back to take over, he could finally relax.
His eyes unconsciously wandered the streets ahead.
The rare sunny weather in winter makes the people go out one after another, the children gather in groups of three or five, holding wooden swords in their hands "Heha~" to fight, and the adults are sitting in front of the teahouse, and a few stacks of melons and fruits can be played for a long time.
The cries of the vendors are even louder, and it sounds like they have made up their minds to make a fortune in this good weather.
The cold wind, which should have been cold, seemed unwilling to spoil the lively scene, and it was a lot warmer.
"Okay, I see, everything is normal on our side, contact us immediately if you have anything."
Jing Qi held the communicator in his hand, and while continuing to contact the team in the ambush in the south, he gestured to the deputy captain to indicate that everything was normal.
"Yo~ Where did this little cutie come from, is there anyone in the bureau who has this kind of pet?"
As he was talking, Lao Yu suddenly seemed to have discovered something, and looked up at the beams of the house, where there was a petite sable with some purple hair on his forehead, shaking his head and looking at the few people below.
The deputy captain, who was still looking at the street, retracted his gaze, and just wanted to see what Lao Yu said about his pet, he heard Jing Qi next to him speak,
"What do you say. Is there a suspicious person close to the Bureau of Forensic Works? ”
There will be a little later
