Chapter 38 Return to the City of Gods!
What is this again?
As soon as he left the third class courtyard, Zhang Hua heard a commotion in front of the county government office. He went up to take a look with some curiosity, only to find that it was people from Shendu who were packing their bags...

Just when he saw Li Yuanying coming out with his horse, Zhang Hua took a few steps forward and greeted:
"Brother Li, you are... getting ready to return to consciousness!"

Zhang Hua was a little puzzled, the matter of the devil in Lin'an City was not completely over yet, why he was leaving so soon.

"Oh, yes!"

Li Yuanying looked a little depressed, but when she saw Zhang Hua coming over, she still explained: "Do you remember those secret passages? It would take too long to dig such a long passage manually. They must have used mechanical equipment. Mr. An doubted this. Someone from the Ministry of Industry was involved.

Also, although the trouble happened in Lin'an City, the people behind the scenes must be planning on the Shendu side, so Mr. An has to go back overnight to prevent any movement in the Shendu side! "

After hearing this, Zhang Hua also nodded secretly. For such a long secret passage, it is impossible for there to be no movement at all if dug by manpower alone. The fact that the machine and equipment can be used also shows that the people behind the scenes have big plans.

Zhang Hua also wanted to ask how the Wang family handled the situation. At this time, he saw Mr. An walking out accompanied by Zhao Rui and others. He could only give up and clasped his fists and said:
"Brother Li, please take care of yourself. We will have a good time when we come to Ancheng next time."

"Yeah!" Li Yuanying patted Zhang Hua's arm, smiled suddenly, and said, "We'll talk about it next time we meet, soon."

Zhang Hua didn't feel anything was wrong. After seeing Li Yuanying get on his horse, he took a few steps back and asked the Yamen servant who came to help.

Despite their low status, these government officials are still well-informed.

Sure enough, the government official Zhang Hua found did not disappoint him. After hearing that he was asking about the Wang family, he looked around and said furtively:
"Captain Zhang, I've heard about the Wang family. Aren't you going to deal with the demon's affairs today? It turns out that the Wang family also colluded with the demon.

Speaking of which, Wang Zhubo is still their main family. They didn’t expect that after the incident was exposed, they wanted to kill Wang Zhubo and the others. If Qin County Lieutenant hadn’t gone there in time, Wang Zhubo and the others would have been in misery..."

Seeing that the yamen servant was still shaking his head and looking sad, Zhang Hua then asked: "What happened after Qin County Lieutenant passed away? Did the Wang family deal with it directly?"

"Deal with it directly! How is that possible?"

The yamen servant looked at Zhang Hua in surprise, shook his head and said: "Captain Zhang, the Wang family is not the Qian family, so how can we deal with it directly! The Qin County Lieutenant only killed a few nursing homes, and the others were detained in the county In jail."

They are all being held in the county jail!

Zhang Hua nodded thoughtfully. It seems that the people behind the Wang family have a lot of official positions!

However, when it comes to demons, no matter how big your official position is, it will probably come to an end this time, unless you can bribe the entire county government and Dali Temple...

"Xiaohua, what are you thinking about?"

Hearing the sound and seeing the government servant leaving quickly, Zhang Hua turned around and said with a smile: "Brother-in-law, you're done."

"Ah."

Li Ying glanced at the convoy that had gone away in the dark night. He sighed first, then lightly punched Zhang Hua on the chest in annoyance and said, "You are really bold, even a fifth-grade demon would dare to do so." Go after it, you are capable, right?"

"Hey! Isn't that just a moment of dizziness?"

Zhang Hua laughed awkwardly, and quickly changed the topic: "Brother-in-law, there should be nothing to explain to the county lord, it's so late, can I go back?"

"Go home! It's early!"

Li Ying glared at Zhang Hua, and then said: "The places you found have been cleaned up, but who knows if there are any hidden ones in other places? Just wait for the night patrol."

"Patrol! Aren't there still city guards?"

Zhang Hua said with a strange look on his face: "Everyone has been busy all day, and most of them are still injured, so the county magistrate will not consider letting everyone rest for the night!"

"City Guards! Of course they will also participate in patrols, but do you think the City Guards will be able to deal with the demon after discovering it?"

Li Ying somewhat looked down upon the combat effectiveness of the city guards. After making a belittling comment, he explained: "Not all detectives have to patrol. Only the injured ones can go. Two detectives led a team of city guards and found out Problems can also be dealt with.

Moreover, the county magistrate also gave a reward. Those who participated in the patrol could receive a subsidy of ten taels of silver first. They could also rest for half a day tomorrow and report to the county office in the afternoon. "

I gave you money!

Ten taels of silver was equivalent to several months of his salary. With such generosity, it seemed that the county magistrate was a blessing in disguise this time.

After knowing that the extra money was added, Zhang Hua stopped complaining. He didn't care about the money now, but it didn't mean that others didn't need it.

Seeing that Zhang Hua stopped talking, Li Ying patted him on the shoulder again and said: "Xiaohua, let's go and eat first. You will join me later. I have asked the Yamen to notify your sister."

"okay."

……

The dinner was cooked by the county's own chef. It tasted very good, comparable to Xinlan's.

Thinking of Xinlan, Zhang Hua, who had just put down the bowl and chopsticks, couldn't help but leaned towards Li Ying, and asked in a low voice: "Brother-in-law, do you know Xinlan's strength! Who is stronger between you and her?"

Compared with Xinlan!

Li Ying suddenly felt that the rice in his mouth was no longer fragrant. He glanced at the empty bowl in front of Zhang Hua and said, "After eating, go to the warehouse to pick up the weapons again. We have to go on patrol soon!"

"Hey, I know, let's go."

He didn’t say anything, but he seemed to say it again.

Zhang Hua, who already knew the answer in his heart, responded and walked to the warehouse.

After receiving the waist knife, hand crossbow, and twelve taels of subsidy, and resting for half an hour, it was time for patrol...

Twenty city guards with bows and guns on their backs lined up in two teams. There were a few temporarily recruited government officials in front and behind holding lanterns and gongs. Plus two policemen on one side, the group walked on the street. , which has improved the security of the entire Lin'an City by several levels.

Having such a big battle made Zhang Hua secretly sigh at the county magistrate's cautiousness. He is worthy of being from a big family and always handles things steadily.

Turning around, he saw that Li Ying on the side seemed to have something on his mind. Zhang Hua asked tentatively and said, "Brother-in-law, after what happened this time, the county magistrate will probably be promoted!"

"not sure!"

Li Ying shook his head and said: "It is certain that this time there is merit or demerit, but the specific extent of the merit depends on what Mr. An will comment on when he returns.

However, judging by the happy face of the county lord, it is estimated that even if he is not promoted, there will be no problem with this year's performance evaluation. "

It's not the county government's business!

Zhang Hua asked directly: "Oh, I think brother-in-law, you seem to have something on your mind. Is it because of Inspector Wang?"

"No, it's none of that."

Hearing Captain Wang, Li Ying paused for a moment, and then said after a moment: "I have been a detective for more than ten years, and I basically send one or two away every year. This kind of thing has long been taken lightly, and the same goes for Wenjie. , Anyway, I’ve done what I can do, there’s nothing to think about.”

One or two every year... Zhang Hua was stunned for a moment after hearing this, but when he came back to his senses and thought about it again, it seemed to be nothing. In the world of martial arts, this was normal.

No wonder Cheng Xinchui was so opposed to becoming a policeman in his memory. If it weren't for his predecessor's life experience, he might have followed the advice and become a doctor.

When Zhang Hua was thinking wildly, he suddenly heard Li Ying say again:
"Xiaohua, what do you think...what if I return to Shendu!"

"God Capital!"
