Imperial City Investigative Department

Chapter 32 Up the Mountain Again (Second Update)
The sophomore looked at Wu Chen fiercely and said:
"Who told you to offend his two brothers? Si Zun asked me to take you there this time! It's fine to go to that kind of place during the day, but at night... why do you think you want to offend them?"

Wu Chen stood up and said, "You have wronged me. It was his brothers who offended me. Si Zun was also afraid that Gu You's head would go crazy and he would do something stupid. This only shows that Si Zun knows that Gu You has no brains."

The sophomore was too lazy to talk to Wu Chen, so he turned and went out, Wu Chen quickly followed.

After leaving the courtyard gate, Xu Da was waiting there in his car, and the sophomore got into the carriage without saying anything.

Wu Chen stepped forward and asked about Xu Da's injuries. Xu Da was quite apologetic, and said in a low voice, "I came back that day just in time for Gu Zuo to come back, so it's not my turn to intervene in the future."

Wu Chen knew what Xu Da meant. That day in the mountains, he and Datou were tied up by their own people who pretended to be ghost gangsters. After returning, they were thrown into the woodshed. At that time, Wu Chen didn't know that Gu Zuo had returned, so he could also think of it later. This is the way Gu Zuo came up with to deal with him, and it has nothing to do with Xu Da.

He patted Xu Da on the shoulder and said, "I know, I worked hard tonight."

Xu Da was a little moved.

……

The carriage was bumping in the dark night, Gao Er was sitting in the carriage with his sword in his arms and closed his eyes to rest his mind.

Sitting across from him, Wu Chen repeatedly cheered himself up. No one blamed anyone at this point, only Lao Hei!It's useless to complain, unless he knows what kind of formation is set up in the mountain depression, and knows how to break the formation, first send away the ghosts in the depression, and then have the ability to find the entrance of the treasure land, and then have the ability to break the formation inside. the agency...

Wu Chen sighed.

"Are you still sighing? It's me who should be sighing!" The sophomore in high school opened his eyes angrily and said.

"You can't get in. Why are you sighing? The Ghost Mandrill Gang is very honest now. Even if there are one or two hidden in the mountain, you and Xu Da can handle it. There are soldiers guarding the side of the mountain. I don't understand your sighing." What are you angry about?!" Wu Chen's anger was not going well.

The second year of high school thought about it, and it was indeed as Wu Chen said, it was dark and he couldn't get into the col, so what was he afraid of?
The sophomore in high school breathed a sigh of relief, and said forcefully, "Never mind whether you can get in or not, this horrible job has always been done by Gu You, if it wasn't for you..."

"You really don't know what to do! Did you approach the col the night before?"

The sophomore shook his head.

"It's still true. Before, Gu You always followed, which means that Si Zun trusts him the most. Now that you bring me here, does it mean that at least Si Zun also trusts you. Do you think anyone can do such a heavy task?"

The sophomore waved his hand and said:
"I'm different from the Gu family brothers. I didn't think about the position of the deputy commander. I didn't think about being the head of the investigation department. I couldn't do it. Damn it, it's good!"

"Can you walk sideways in the capital?" Wu Chen asked tentatively.

"Almost! Who dares to provoke the people of the Imperial City Department in the capital? First of all, we don't cause trouble, and we don't have to give face to anyone. Even if the princes and grandchildren see me and know that I am from the Investigation Department, they will give them a little face. Nothing else Dare to say, it’s true that no one dares to bully my family in the capital! Sigh, there are quite a few trips to Kyoto on business trips, but this time, it’s not only a long way to go, but the errands are difficult to handle. Although we don’t know the fate, but we feel uncomfortable, we said privately that we only touched a little bit of the edge and killed so many people, if we find the entrance one day, we may lose many more lives!”

"Are you married?"

"Of course! Two sons and a daughter, the eldest is eight years old."

"What about looking left and right?"

"These two brothers are different from us. They have been with Si Zun since they were young. They can be regarded as Si Zun's adoptive sons, no, it seems that Si Zun has never said that. Anyway, the two of them are not married yet, and they are about to become grandpas." At my age, I can't figure it out, and I don't have to worry about others."

"Grandpa? How old are they two?"

"It's almost [-] years old!"

Wu Chen's eyes widened, and after thinking about it, it was indeed true that when he had a son in the 30th or [-]th, and the son gave birth to a son in the [-]th or [-]th, wouldn't it be more than [-] to be a grandfather?

"Will getting married and having children delay my promotion?" Wu Chen asked.

"That's not clear. Usually, I seldom walk around with their brothers."

As the two chatted, the fear in Wu Chen's heart subconsciously eased a lot.

While talking, Xu Da stopped the car at the foot of the mountain, and several people got out of the carriage. Chen Zhong ordered not to light the torches, probably because he was afraid of attracting people from the Ghost Gang. Fortunately, all three of them have been to the mountain, especially the sophomore Many times, you can find your way even without a torch.

Wu Chen walked behind the sophomore and said, "If Gu You didn't mess around, we wouldn't have to go up the mountain tonight. It's a good time this time, the col can be found anytime, but at that location, it's really..."

Wu Chen complained and walked towards the mountain, but he stopped halfway through the words, and even his footsteps stopped, Gao Er and Xu Da had to stop and wait for him.

Wu Chen stayed where he was, staring ahead.

The surroundings were pitch black, and nothing could be seen. The second year of high school and the first year of Xu were alright, but Wu Chen stood there motionless. Both of them knew that he was different from ordinary people, so they couldn't help but use their brains to think wildly. After thinking about it, the two of them unconsciously leaned against Wu Chen.

The second year of high school couldn't help asking in a low voice: "But what did you see that you shouldn't see?"

Wu Chen turned his head suddenly, and the sophomore was so frightened that he jumped on the spot.

"Which one of you two will go back immediately and tell Si Zun... Oh, forget it, I'll go back, I'm afraid you won't be able to tell."

After Wu Chen finished speaking, he turned around and was about to walk towards the carriage, but Gao Er grabbed the collar behind his neck: "You go back and say? Who entered the mountain? Can the two of us get out after entering?"

Wu Chen was strangled by the collar and couldn't breathe, so he hurriedly said, "Let's go back together! It's a big matter, we can't, delay!"

The second year of high school let go and asked, "Can't you go in first? Why can't you wait two hours?"

"Can't wait!" Wu Chen was a little anxious: "If you go back like this, if Si Zun blames you, just push it on me alone, and you will see if Si Zun will punish me then!"

Xu Damang persuaded:
"We are just escorting Wu Chen. We don't know about other things. Since Wu Chen said there is something important, we naturally have no way of distinguishing whether it is important or not. It is up to the master to judge. It is okay to go back first. If it is something Wu Chen said It's not serious, the Master will definitely punish you."

The second year of high school was right after thinking about it, so he said angrily: "If you are timid in front of the battle, don't hurt the two of us, remember?"

Wu Chen asked in bewilderment, "How did you get into the Investigation Department of the Imperial City? Is there no threshold for the Investigation Department?"

The sophomore didn't know why, Wu Chen shook his head and went down the mountain.

……

Chen Zhong didn't expect Wu Chen to go back so soon. He calculated the time. If he didn't need to go up and down the mountain, he could go faster. If Wu Chen and the others are going to come back tonight, they might have to wait until dawn. Chen Zhong thought about it first. After falling asleep, the little eunuch timidly replied: Wu Chen begs to see him.

The candlelight in the room was dim, Chen Zhong's face was gloomy, and the atmosphere was not harmonious.
