Imperial City Investigative Department

Chapter 27 Another Exploration (One More)
Chen Zhong said with a smile:

"Don't worry about me. I can handle killing a guilty county magistrate. The officials won't annoy me. When I report Jiang Shan's actions in detail, the officials may reward me."

Wu Chen's mind was spinning desperately. He knew that Chen Zhong had this ability, but he was educated to investigate and collect evidence. Only when the chain of evidence is sufficient can he be convicted. Now he will take someone's life based on what he said, and the crime will follow Jiang Shan. Buried together, this is not what Wu Chen wants to see.

Just as Wu Chen turned his mind rapidly, he caught a glimpse of the cunning in Chen Zhong's eyes, and Wu Chen immediately realized that this was a kind of temptation.

"Si Zun, I don't know if I should say something or not." Wu Chen looked upright.

"speak!"

"The state has state laws, and the family has family rules. There is no rule without rules. Even if Si Zun is powerful now, he will never make mistakes in following the rules. If Jiang Shan is serious about doing evil things, as long as he is willing to investigate, he will be able to find out. Wouldn't it be more appropriate for the imperial court to deal with him? Officials trust Si Zun, and Si Zun also devotes himself to doing business for the official family. Other officials use their power to despise the law for their own self-interest, treat the world as their own, and do whatever they want. Aren't these the people our Imperial City Investigative Department is arresting? Si Zun is the most trusted person in the government, and he should respect the law the most, and set an example for all officials! As for the mountains... there are people who are more anxious than us, so we will But don't rush."

Chen Zhong squinted his eyes and stared at Wu Chen for a while, then suddenly asked with a smile, "Do you know where you are stronger than Gu Zuo?"

Wu Chen shook his head.

"You have your own opinions in doing things, and you don't act arbitrarily and smartly when it comes to urgent matters, especially...you have rules in your heart, which is great!"

Wu Chen hurriedly said humbly: "Si Zun is too much, I'm full of problems, after a long time of contact, I'm afraid Si Zun will bother me."

Chen Zhong waved his hand and said:

"In the morning, I ordered someone to send a letter to the East Road Department of Criminal Justice, and they will send someone to investigate the case as soon as possible. This Jiang Shan has a cousin who has graduated from the fifth service, and he is the Taiwei in front of the palace. Taiwei, I have to treat him with three points of courtesy. If Jiang Shan sends a beautiful woman to the capital, it should be given to Gao Taiwei, so this case can be big or small, but it is not up to us, do you understand?"

"I don't understand." Wu Chen answered sincerely, and then explained: "What I mean is that officials protect each other. Since Jiang Shan's support is a powerful person, shouldn't the big incident be made small? And there is no evidence right now. This is the best time, so as not to cause trouble for Si Zun."

Chen Zhong snorted and said:
"I just praised you, and then I became stupid again! You have to remember, we people in the Imperial City Division only listen to the officials, and don't need to look at other people's faces! Officials hate corrupt officials the most. Now that we have met, naturally To take care of it, you are absolutely right in saying that there are people who are more anxious than us about things in the mountain depression, so we don't need to be in a hurry."

Wu Chen nodded frequently, pretending to be excited and said, "So our Imperial City Secretary is so powerful!"

Chen Zhong snorted again, waved his hands and said, "Go down and rest, the bones in the yard will be placed in that yard. Tomorrow, at the latest, the day after tomorrow, the jailer will send someone to take over. You When the time comes, we will investigate the case together.”

……

Wu Chen went back to the room very excitedly. The big head was waiting for dinner. Seeing Wu Chen, he asked, "Why are you so happy?"

Wu Chen smirked a few times following Datou's example, and said something Datou couldn't understand: "I thought I was following a treacherous minister."

The big head can't understand, and the big head won't ask about topics that don't interest him.

Soon the two of them talked about eating, and the big head began to talk endlessly, counting what he had eaten these days, and what else he had seen before, Wu Chen just listened quietly, he I feel that the most relaxed time is when I am with Datou.

After dinner, the second year of high school came to Wu Chen's room, and he looked at Wu Chen differently from before. He found a seat close to Wu Chen and asked in a low voice, "How did you manage to make Si Zun trust you so quickly?" of?"

Wu Chen was stunned for a moment, and after realizing it, he smiled and said, "A person with a brain just needs to see if the other party has rules and is in line with his wishes. If the appearance is not too annoying, trust can be easily established."

The sophomore frowned in thought.

Wu Chen added:
"You have always acted according to orders. You rarely have the opportunity to find out and solve problems by yourself. When you encounter problems, you report them first. Therefore, you have followed Si Zun for many years, and Si Zun can only distinguish each of you through your ability to do things. I said You may not like to hear a sentence, it is not up to the boss who will do more and who will do less in your errands, in other words, what Si Zun can understand is just someone who wants Si Zun to know."

The sophomore coughed slightly in embarrassment.

Wu Chen also said:

"I'm different. I had the opportunity to meet Si Zun face to face from the very beginning. I'm not good at hiding, and I can say what I think. What's more, I didn't know that Si Zun's official position was so great at the beginning. Naturally, a lot of scruples have been reduced, and if you tell the truth more, Si Zun will naturally trust him, what kind of person is Si Zun? Who can deceive him?"

Senior Two nodded and said, "What you said is very true, we have less opportunities to speak freely in front of the Master..."

"No." Wu Chen waved his hand, pointed to his head and smiled, "If there is a chance, there must be something here, and what you say must be useful."

The sophomore was stunned for a moment, got up and left.

Wu Chen shook his head lightly, and muttered, "When will this temptation end?"

Da Tou sat up from the bed and asked, "What is he doing here? I haven't understood it for a long time."

Wu Chen snorted and said, "Even you can tell that he didn't say a word about his business, but he doesn't know it. After probing, he lifts his ass and leaves. If he returns to his life, he may be punished again."

The big head couldn't understand, so he simply lay down again.

Wu Chen rubbed his face, thinking that the people trained by this secret service agency were really not very good at secret service, when the little eunuch suddenly appeared at the door, saying that Chen Zhong wanted to see Wu Chen.

Wu Chen didn't dare to delay, so he hurried over.

As soon as he entered the room, Wu Chen saw a majestic man who looked like a general sitting at the head of Chen Zhong.

When Chen Zhong saw Wu Chen coming in, he said to the man, "This is Wu Chen who found the bones. He is now the police officer of my investigation department, but he has enough brains. I can only entrust him with some important matters."

The man got up quickly after hearing this.

Wu Chen saw that the man was not wearing official clothes, but his aura remained undiminished, so he knew that this man must be a high-ranking official. When Chen Zhong mentioned the discovery of the bones, Wu Chen knew something in his heart, and he hurried forward to salute.

Chen Zhong introduced to Wu Chen again: "This is Song Tixing from Hedong Road, who is here to investigate the bone case. Tomorrow, you can follow Song Tixing to investigate the case."
