Chapter 83: Strength is respected
At this time, Wang Hucheng was eating and drinking spicy food in the restaurant, and there were three people who were also the adopted sons of the city lord's mansion waiting for him with laughter, which could be said to be enjoyable.
"Hey, even if you have the vision and know how to honor me, otherwise you would have gone to work at the Hu family now."
He took a bite of a chicken leg in his hand and said indistinctly.
"That's that! Thanks to Brother Wang for taking care of you! ”
The other three nodded their heads again and again, flatteringly pouring him wine and serving him food.
"Come on, come on, Brother Wang eat more and drink more."
"In the future, I will have to bother Brother Wang to help me more......"
Wang Hucheng nodded with satisfaction.
"Don't worry, as long as you follow me obediently, I won't forget you in the future."
Now since Liu Chen's mysterious disappearance, the pattern in the City Lord's Mansion has changed a lot.
His status may be because of the lack of suppressed relationships above, and he has also been promoted a lot, and now he can barely be regarded as a terrible figure, and there are not a few people who have stammered before and after.
Now that he is proud, he is even thinking that if his martial arts cultivation is mentioned again, maybe he will be able to replace Liu Chen's position?
The future will not be bright at that time!
He can already imagine his future in the future.
But just then, there was a knock on the door.
"Who?"
Wang Hucheng was interrupted from his dream and roared angrily.
No one responded.
But suddenly the door was empty, and a crack opened automatically.
With the old sound of "squeak, squeak, squeak", it slowly opened.
Outside the door, it was clear that it was broad daylight, but it was dark and deadly silent.
The restaurant that was supposed to be lively for this meal couldn't even see half a figure.
I saw a white lantern hanging on the wall that emitted a dim light, swaying slightly with the wind blowing from nowhere.
The three people in the room were stunned, and they didn't even realize that the wine jug in their hands fell to the ground and their shoes were soaked with wine.
"What's going on......"
Wang Hucheng was a little flustered and just wanted to get up, but suddenly the darkness outside the door suddenly rushed into the room like a flood, and instantly swallowed everything in the room.
There was only a dead silence.
……
"Catch the head, there is breaking news from the county office, it seems that there is a new murder case......
At the gate of Hu's mansion, a person hurriedly ran in and shouted at the head catcher who was collecting clues according to the rules.
It wasn't until he noticed that there were other people here that he lowered his voice a little, but his face was still anxious: "Your Excellency has already ordered you to go back as soon as possible......"
"Oh?" The headcatcher looked embarrassed, "Is it serious?" We're just getting started......"
"Very serious!" The man whispered, "It seems that a whole restaurant has died in broad daylight, and when someone goes in to order food, they find that they are gone, and there is a relative of the adult here......"
"Shhh
The face of the head catcher changed instantly.
"It's been too unpeaceful in the city these two days! There was only Hu Mansion last night, and now it's the restaurant again......"
"That's right, the methods of killing people seem to be similar, and the adults suspect that it may be the same group of people, so the matter of Hufu here can be put aside for a while, and go to investigate the restaurant first......"
"I see." The head catcher rubbed his eyebrows and sighed, "I'll take someone back later." ”
Now that the adult has given the order, he, as a subordinate, naturally has to obey it.
And Liu Xiaopang and other adopted sons on the side naturally heard it clearly, and they were naturally happy to learn that they could go back early.
Only Han You, although he had a similar look on his face as them, had some doubts in his heart.
Wan Ying was still by her side, and she was not so cruel to send her to kill the entire restaurant to accompany Wang Hucheng to the funeral.
He looked down at his hand.
There was an unnatural shadow wriggling slightly.
He was thoughtful.
"In other words, there may be another evil cult working on it?"
"What is the purpose of the other party? If it's just for the sake of eating, it shouldn't be so blatant......"
After all, Wan Ying before was at least only a lone person.
Now that so many people have been killed in broad daylight, the matter is completely big.
Han You couldn't help but sigh.
Now the water in Linglong City is even more muddy.
But as he was leaving, the head catcher suddenly turned to him and asked.
"By the way, I don't know what this son is called?"
Han You replied truthfully: "Han You." ”
The head catcher hugged his fists and said: "Han Gongzi's courage just now is very admirable to me, if I have the opportunity in the future, I hope to have a few drinks with Gongzi." ”
Just now, when everyone else was trembling and hugging, Han You dared to wander around this Hu Mansion alone.
This kind of courage is really not comparable to ordinary people.
Han You politely didn't pay much attention to it, looking at the backs of the other party who were about to leave, and was more curious about what it was that dared to make trouble in the city.
……
At this time, the White Moon will be inside.
After yesterday's riot, this area has been blocked by all the remaining personnel of the White Moon Society, and idlers cannot enter or leave.
After the big loss, the most important thing they need to watch out for is the people from other gangs who take advantage of the fire.
The good news is that the eight-rank powerhouse promised by Taibai Gongzi last night has arrived, and he is sitting at the headquarters, which makes everyone feel refreshed and have some confidence.
As for whether the other party is a wanted criminal, it doesn't matter at all.
Not to mention the current status of the White Moon Society, with the experience and strength of their underground gang, it is very simple to protect a person without the government deliberately controlling it.
At this time, Yuan Qin, who had not slept all night, was sitting in the hall listening to his subordinates report on the losses of last night, when suddenly a maid hurriedly walked in outside.
"Miss, the Inspector Ann came over in person, saying that he wanted to visit you...... And then, then, personally apologize to you......"
Her face was a little incredulous.
After all, in the past, this inspector represented the imperial court, and his status was extremely high compared to their gangs, and they usually begged to see this inspector, and they had to prepare generous gifts, and it depended on whether the other party had time or interest.
When have you ever seen this adult come to the door in person and apologize?
It's unprecedented.
Yuan Qin was also stunned for a moment, and then he thought about it, as if he understood something.
"Let him in."
The tone was not as cautious and dignified as before, but a little relieved.
If she guessed correctly, the positions of the two sides have now been reversed.
After all, when the strength reaches a certain limit, the rules of some ordinary people have lost their effect on them.
The rest - strength is respected!
At this time, although Lord An outside was stopped by several of Bai Yuehui's subordinates, there was no dissatisfaction on his face, but he still smiled happily, and regardless of the dissuasion of the people at hand, he personally got off the bus station and waited on the road.
At least the sincerity on face is enough.
While waiting, he also quietly wiped the cold sweat on his forehead with a handkerchief.
After getting the news in the morning, he could still sit still, and immediately planned to send someone to apologize, but in the end he felt that it was still inappropriate, so he simply came over himself.
This time he was really scared.
There is no way, Bai Yuehui, who was given a war letter by that secret family, was fine all night, but the Hu Mansion where the secret family temporarily lived was completely destroyed.
What exactly is behind this news, he can figure it out with his toes.
The forces behind the White Moon Society are definitely stronger than that hidden family!
And knowing that the secret family is enough to ignore the authority of the imperial court and dare to kill people in front of the government.
How terrifying the person behind the White Moon Society was, he didn't dare to think about it anymore.
Anyway, it's definitely not something he can afford to mess with!
Thinking of the pitiful and pitiful look he gave to Yuan Qin yesterday, his face flushed and regretted, and he wanted to slap himself a few times.
And now what he is most afraid of is that he is misunderstood by Yuan Qin that he is standing on the side of the hidden family, which leads to being implicated, and he will be destroyed easily.
Therefore, it was the best way he could think of to come to apologize with a generous gift.
As for the little face lost because of this, it doesn't matter at all in comparison!
