Sky Surveying Demon Hunt

Chapter 100 The old case in the capital
Walking on the official road to the capital, Lin Ji felt a little emotional.

The last time he went to the capital was at the end of the second month, and in the blink of an eye, it was midsummer.

In less than half a year, he broke through from the third realm to the fourth realm, and was promoted from Qingyang county arrester to Liangcheng chief arrester.

These six months have been more fulfilling than his past few years as a supervisor.

Although this kind of enrichment, Lin Ji would rather not have it.

After walking along the official road for more than ten days, I passed Tongtian Town in the early morning.

There are no officers and soldiers blocking the way in Tongtian Town today.

Many businessmen coming and going rest here, and there are also tourists who enter and leave Beijing, and go away through here.

Lin Ji never stopped in Tongtian Town, and continued northward all the way.

At noon, he had already entered the capital.

Because the journey along the way was not in a hurry, and Lin Ji didn't feel tired, so after entering the capital, he went directly to the capital government office.

"Stop, who is it?" The guard at the gate of the government office blocked his way.

"The head of Liangzhou arrested Lin Ji and took orders to go to Beijing." Lin Ji took out the Jin Zhan Ling.

The token of Supervisor Tiansi is the best pass.

The guards didn't dare to stop him, they let Lin Ji in, and then trotted to report.

Not long after waiting in the side hall of the government office in the capital, a servant from the government office came to deliver a message.

Following the servants around the government office, Lin Ji found out after a while that he had come to the back hall of the government office.

This is usually the residence of the town government official.

He is a chief arrester of Liangzhou and has come to Beijing, is it worth the town government officials to come forward in person?
With strong doubts, he waited in the back hall for a while, and a middle-aged man with sword eyebrows and starry eyes walked in.

It really was Sun Heya.

"Master Sun." Lin Ji quickly stood up and saluted.

The last time I saw Sun Heya was at Luo Xuanyi's mansion, but the two of them didn't say a few words at that time.

Lin Ji was curious as to whether Mrs. Luo's case had been resolved.

"Sit down and talk." Sun Heya nodded at Lin Ji, and sat down at his seat.

After Lin Ji was also seated, Sun Heya said bluntly: "Master Gao wanted you to come to Beijing, and I don't know why. But you have the cultivation base of the fourth realm, and the Demon Town Tower will reopen soon. Can help a little."

Hearing this, Lin Ji raised his head in surprise and looked at Sun Heya.

"Master Sun, shouldn't the matter of the Demon Town Tower be a secret?"

Sun Heya just shook his head, obviously not very interested.

"This matter is a secret, but you are the chief arrester of Liangzhou, so there is no need to keep it a secret from you."

Lin Ji still wants to ask a little more, otherwise he has no idea.

But before he could speak, he was interrupted by Sun Heya waving his hand.

"There's no need to ask any more questions. I can't explain this in a few words, and I don't want to say it."

"Yes." Lin Ji replied helplessly.

There was a brief silence in the back hall.

Seeing Sun Heya picking up the teacup, Lin Ji thought he was going to see off the guests, and got up to say goodbye.

Sun Heya laughed and said, "What's the hurry, I just want to drink some water, please sit down."

"Yes." What could Lin Ji say.

After a while, Sun Heya put down his teacup and asked, "Lin Ji, last time you came to Beijing to report on your work, did Mr. Zheng ask you to stay in the capital?"

"There is such a thing." Lin Ji nodded.

"Why did you refuse last time? Staying in the capital has a better future than you in Liangzhou."

"Xiaguan was born in Qingyang County. He was born and raised, and he doesn't want to leave his hometown." Lin Ji said very calmly.

"You are sincere!"

Sun Heya asked again: "Then what if I asked you to stay again this time? Before you came, I specifically looked at your experience in the past six months, and I have to say that you are a competent headhunter."

Lin Ji shook his head.

"My lord, Xiaguan has just taken office as chief arrester of Liangzhou, so it's not easy to pick someone. Besides, Lord Zhan still thinks that I can go back."

Anyone who wanted to climb up would have followed Sun Heya's words and chose to stay in the capital.

When Lin Ji said that, Sun Heya naturally understood the meaning of rejection.

"In that case, let's follow your will."

Sun Heya nodded, then looked outside the back hall.

"Come on."

"Master Sun." There is a yamen servant waiting for orders.

"Go and call Leibao."

Not long after, the yamen servant led a strong man with a height of two meters into the back hall.

"I've met Mr. Sun." The strong man named Lei Bao saluted without being humble, and then looked at Lin Ji again.

"Who is this?"

"Liangzhou chief arrests Lin Ji."

Sun Heya pointed to Leibao again and said: "This is Leibao, the chief catcher of Jingzhou. This time you come to the capital, let him arrange your whereabouts."

Lin Ji stood up and saluted Lei Bao, and then evaded: "My lord, just go to the post office as an official."

"There is no such thing as staying in a posthouse as the chief arrester of a dignified state." Lei Bao seemed to be an acquaintance, grabbed Lin Ji's wrist, and said with a smile, "Brother Lin, just come with me."

Lin Ji could only follow Lei Bao, and left the capital government office together.

Walking on the streets of the capital, Lei Bao finally let go of his hand.

"Why did Brother Lin come to the capital?"

"I'm on business, so it's inconvenient to disclose." Lin Ji responded casually.

Hearing this, Lei Bao didn't ask any more questions, he knew the rules.

The two walked side by side until they came to a small courtyard in the east of the city.

This place is quite quiet, surrounded by large courtyards, but this small courtyard is not much bigger than Lin Ji's courtyard in Qingyang County.

"This is my house in the city. Brother Lin can rest here during his stay in the capital."

"Go, I'll take you in and have a look."

Lin Ji has nothing to do.

Although the house is small, it has all internal organs.

The two wing rooms and the kitchen are all very clean. There is a peach tree planted in the yard, which already bears a lot of fruit.

"See if you are satisfied. If not, I will show you elsewhere." Lei Bao grinned.

"Satisfied, thank you Lord Lei."

"You're welcome." Lei Bao waved his hands nonchalantly, "I'll go to the restaurant to book a table later, and I'll show you my brother! If you encounter any troubles in the capital, just look for me."

Hearing this, Lin Ji is about to thank you.

Who would have thought that someone would break into the yard.

The person who came was wearing the clothes of the demon hunter, and his expression was a little flustered.

When Lei Bao turned his head and found that it was his subordinate, his face darkened a lot.

"What's wrong with being so flustered? What happened?"

"My lord, Wei Shangshu's wife is back."

Hearing this, Lei Bao frowned immediately, first glanced at Lin Ji beside him, and then continued to ask: "How?"

The demon catcher just nodded.

Lin Ji at the side saw this scene, and quickly said: "If there is business, Mr. Lei can just do it and ignore me."

"No, brother Lin, this matter has something to do with you."

"Huh?" Lin Ji was puzzled.

Lei Bao let out a long sigh.

"It's the case of changing a wife in Luo Xiang's residence a few months ago."

"Wait, Luo Xiang? Isn't it Luo Xuan and Master Luo?" Lin Ji asked in surprise.

Lei Bao explained: "Brother Lin doesn't know something, Master Luo was just promoted to the right minister a few days ago."

"Isn't Mr. Ke Luo a third-rank official? This is a promotion to the first rank twice in a row? And he is still in the position of prime minister." Lin Ji felt a little unreasonable.

Leopard shrugged.

"The Superintendent doesn't care about these things, so I don't know much about it."

"That's it." Lin Ji nodded and didn't delve into it further.

"So in the case of becoming a woman, more than one person was killed?"
