Deng Tong was overjoyed, and felt that Zhou Zhou Ming was very eye-catching, and immediately asked, "This little brother, who are you?" ”

Zhou Ming was neither humble nor arrogant, smiling, and gave a gentle salute: "Humble Zhou Ming, I have seen the inspector."

I have only been in the yamen for a few days, and I am currently a scribe, and I have heard of the name of the inspector for a long time, and I have never had the opportunity to meet him. ”

Xia Dezhang originally expected that absolutely no one would have the courage to join the night patrol team, but he was very happy to see Zhou Zhou Ming suddenly stand up and say that he wanted to join the night patrol team.

But later, I heard Zhou Ming say that he was just a poor writer now, and Xia Dezhang's mood suddenly fell to the bottom.

But after thinking about it, a civilian job is a civilian job, and one more person will make the night patrol team more courageous, which is better than nothing.

Even if there is an accident during the night patrol, the escape speed of a literati will definitely not be comparable to that of these martial artists, let him be a substitute for the dead, and he and his brothers will have one more chance to escape.

"Okay, you deserve to be a hero and a young man, everyone here, don't you blush?"

Xia Dezhang boasted duplicitously.

Originally, it was not in line with the rules for civilian officials to join the night patrol, and Deng Tong knew this very well, but now is an extraordinary period, and he can't care so much.

If he can't add a night watchman to Xia Dezhang now, the only head catcher will not do anything, and he can only go to the night patrol by himself.

"Since Zhou Transcript is so heroic for you, I will allow you to join the night patrol team, you can prepare well in the afternoon, and gather with Xia Zhutou in the evening."

"Yes, lowly command."

After explaining this, Deng Tong turned around and went back to the back hall.

Xia Dezhang walked up to Zhou Ming, patted him on the shoulder, and showed a look of appreciating him: "Good boy, he is a person who does big things."

In the afternoon, I will arrange someone to give you a complete set of equipment, and we will meet at the yamen in the evening. ”

"Yes." Monday Ming bowed his hand.

When Xia Dezhang was leaving, he didn't forget to mock the other poor people: "You old people, you can't even compare to a civilian newcomer, are you ashamed?" ”

After Deng Tong and Xia Dezhang left, several officials who were usually good with Zhou Zhou Ming all surrounded them.

"Zhou Transcript, you are confused, do you know how dangerous the Night Patrol is?"

"Even if you want to join the night patrol team, you should discuss it with Master Cao and ask the old man to give you an idea."

Zhou Zhou Ming saw the expressions of several people and knew that they were all for their own good, so he said perfunctorily: "I didn't think much about it, as soon as I heard that the night patrol fee was so much, my brain was hot and I raised my hand." ”

"Alas, you kid really wants money and doesn't want to die." One of the officials sighed and said, "Do you know why the salaries of this night patrol team are so high? If it was a good errand, we would have rushed to do it a long time ago. ”

Another official continued: "In the past, when it was peaceful, the night patrol team was a good errand, but since the disappearance, the night patrol team in our city and other urban areas has often had night patrol members die strangely and violently at night, and the death is horrifying.

The various patrol yamen have been checking back and forth, and we have no clue, but those of us in the yamen know that this must have something to do with the disappearance case. ”

After listening to the words of the two officials, Zhou Ming's heart to go to the night patrol team became more determined, just now he just asked to join the night patrol team just to earn more subsidies.

Now he has one more thought, that is, he hopes to meet the murderer of the missing case during the night patrol.

He politely passed a few servants perfunctorily, and then began to fish again.

When it was noon, Master Cao found him in a panic.

"Zhou Transcript, I heard that you are going to join the Night Patrol, but is there such a thing?"

Seeing Master Cao's question, Zhou Zhou Ming immediately realized that trouble was coming.

Master Cao is looking at Master Lin's face, so he found this errand for himself, if he joins the night patrol team and something goes wrong, he will not be able to explain it in front of Master Lin, so he will definitely oppose himself joining the night patrol team.

And Zhou Ming can't be perfunctory to him, after all, he came to the yamen on an errand and owed others a favor, and people usually take care of themselves very much.

"It is true." Zhou Ming could only admit it obediently.

Master Cao's face was shocked: "Someone forced you to go?" Or did someone trick you into it? Tell me honestly, the old man will get justice for you. ”

Zhou Zhou Ming was a little moved, this old Cao is really good to himself, he is really good about something.

"No, I volunteered to join."

Master Cao's face immediately turned pale, and he couldn't say a word for a long time.

Why is that? You joined the Night Patrol, does Master Lin know? Have you discussed it with your family? ”

Zhou Ming shook his head and smiled helplessly.

Master Cao was so angry that he trembled: "You go with me to see Inspector Deng now, tell him that you regret it, if Inspector Deng is to blame, I will bear all the consequences for you." ”

Lao Cao is really righteous.

But Zhou Zhou Ming had already decided, so he could only grit his teeth and say, "Master Cao, thank you, but I have already decided, I have to join the night patrol." ”

"There's no room for change?" Master Cao asked at the end.

Zhou Ming shook his head.

Master Cao turned around and staggered away as if he was seriously injured.

Zhou Ming knew that although Master Cao was gone, the matter would definitely not end like this, he would definitely inform Master Lin, and Master Lin would tell his parents.

Maybe it won't be long before his parents and Lin Ajiao will run to the yamen and cry to let themselves go home.

Thinking of that picture, Zhou Zhou Ming suddenly felt a sense of horror.

"It shouldn't be that bad, right? The society died to that extent, let alone the night patrol, and there was no face in the yamen to stay. ”

Things turned out to be Zhou Ming's expectations, and after half an hour, Laifulai Yamen called Zhou Ming home, saying that the old lady had something to discuss with him.

Can Zhou Ming not know the mystery? resolutely refused, and told Rifle that he joined the night patrol team in order to be promoted, mixed qualifications, and absolutely no danger, and asked him to tell his family not to worry about him, and he would not go home tonight.

Not long after Laifu went back, he brought Zhou Ruhai to the yamen again, and this time Zhou Ming couldn't avoid it.

At noon, Zhou Zhou Ming and his father sat down in a restaurant, eating and chatting.

To Zhou Ming's surprise, Zhou Ruhai did not blindly prevent him from joining the night patrol team, but just asked him a question: "Have you thought about it?" ”

Zhou Zhou Ming nodded: "Dad, I have known since I was a child that you and my mother have high expectations for me, and I am very sorry that you have always turned your expectations into disappointments, and made you worry so much for me." ”

Zhou Ruhai was shocked.

"I have never forgotten the dream of glorifying the lintel for my family. It's just that it's so hard for me to realize this dream now. Zhou Ming continued.

"The so-called wealth is in danger, Dad, you should have heard this sentence. I joined the Night Patrol just to fight, whether I win or lose, I can accept it. So if you stop it, please don't say it. ”

Zhou Ruhai's eyes were a little moist, he nodded, and then raised his wine glass: "You are a good son of the Zhou family, and you have always been."

After drinking this glass of wine, I will go back with Laifu, and I will appease your mother well, you can rest assured. ”

Zhou Ming and his father touched the wine glass, drank it all, and then felt that something was wrong.

How did it make it feel like life and death? Lao Tzu is now in the realm of the three grades of martial arts, and the ordinary thief Jiang Yang is not my opponent at all.

Even if you can't win in the face of a master, you can still be sure of self-protection and escape.

When sending my dad back, Zhou Zhou Ming instructed: "Dad, you tell Gillian and let her rest assured that I will be fine." ”

Zhou Ruhai nodded, got into the carriage and went back.

Zhou Ming just breathed a sigh of relief and wanted to go back to the yamen, but was suddenly stopped by two veiled men.

Zhou Zhou Ming subconsciously took two steps back, just about to urge his vitality to protect himself, when he heard one of them speak.

"Don't be afraid, it's my Gillian."

"Huh?" Monday Ming one head two big.

Why is it so difficult for a man to want to do something, he just got the old father, and the lady is here again, and there is no end?

"Gillian, why are you here?"

"Miss was worried about her uncle, so she ran out secretly."

The other person is the maid Huan'er.

Zhou Zhou Ming frowned and began to think about how to persuade Lin Ajiao to let her go home without preventing herself from joining the night patrol.

But apparently he was overthinking.

Lin Ajiao didn't open her mouth to stop him from doing anything, just handed him a set of thick clothes, and then whispered in his ear: "Xianggong, don't be afraid when you patrol the night at night, I will protect you secretly." ”

Zhou Ming's tears almost flowed, what kind of blessing did I get in my life, and I was able to marry such a good daughter-in-law who is unparalleled in the world.

He must not let Lin Ajiao put herself in danger.

"Lady, what do you mean by that? Don't you look down on Xianggong? Then it's better for you to be on this errand, and I'll go home and eat soft rice. Zhou Ming deliberately pretended to be angry.

He knew in his heart that if he persuaded him with good words, Lin Ajiao would not listen at all.

Lin Ajiao was stunned for a moment, and then said softly: "Xianggong, I have no intention of doing this, just because I am worried about you." ”

The little maid Huan'er was almost angry next to her, she had never seen such a bad person, my young lady was obviously just for his good, he was not grateful, and he was angry with my young lady.

If it were me, I wouldn't care if he lived or died.

"It's best if you don't have that meaning, you listen to me, go home obediently, and don't let you go out at night.

It's been a lot of chaos lately, and you know, I don't want you to put yourself at risk.

I have the ability to take care of myself. ”

With all that said, Lin Ajiao could only nod, turned around and left with the maid.

When the little maid Huan'er left, she didn't forget to look back at Zhou Ming a few times.

Looking at the back of Lin Ajiao leaving, Zhou Ming was also very distressed.

Lady, don't blame me, for the sake of your birthday, I'm sorry to do it once.

Zhou Zhou Ming returned to the yamen with a set of thick clothes and began to prepare for the night patrol early.

Zhou Zhou Ming's popularity in the yamen is very good, and several officials who have joined the night patrol team before gave him a brief introduction to the basic process of the night patrol and told him some precautions.

This gave Zhou Ming a basic understanding of the errand of night patrol.
