I was just solving crimes, how could I become an immortal?

Chapter 2 The Unclothed Thief
  The moon hangs outside the clouds, and frost accompanies the chirping of insects at night.

Daxing Dynasty, Shangjiang City.

The main roads paved with bluestones crisscross the city, enough for ten horses to gallop together. There are many lofts along the streets and streets, and the ancient charm fully reflects the strong national power of the dynasty.

Tonight was the same as usual, the whole city was under curfew, and only the Jinwu Guards were left on patrol at night. From time to time, the sound of a watchman beating the watch could be heard at the entrance of the alley, and it was quiet in the dead of night.

But for Cao An, tonight is destined to be a sleepless night.

"Let's go, let's meet Lord Tisi and arrest the unclothed thief together!" Zhu Xian patted his big belly and burst out with great enthusiasm for work.

The six of them all turned to look out the window. The moonlight was so beautiful tonight.

"Brother Zhu, isn't it our first day of reporting? We started investigating the case as soon as we arrived? It's almost midnight..."

"So what about Haishi? You don't want to go back to the dormitory to sleep, do you? You've been sleeping for two years, and now is a good opportunity to make contributions. How can you sleep at this age?"

"..."

In just half an hour, Cao An transformed from a naked man into an agent of the Tsing Yi Department.

Going through an interview on the day of time travel, joining the company on the day of the interview, working overtime on the day of joining, and staying up all night to catch a streaking robber. This is even worse than being a social animal in my previous life.

Fortunately, the on-boarding procedures were completed, and the system rewards were distributed accordingly. A message was integrated into his mind like an enlightenment.

【Name】: Cao An
  [Cultivation]: None

[Occupation]: Detective in Tsing Yi
  [Kung Fu]: Qing Yi Shen Xing Kung Fu

[Equipment]: Must-win handcuffs, 30 taels of tattooed silver

[Professional talent]: Choose one of three suspects
  ……

The attribute panel appeared, and the initial reward seemed to be quite a lot.

[Detective in Tsing Yi: When you are at the scene of a mysterious case, the detective mission will be triggered, and you can get rewards for solving the case. 】

This should be regarded as the ability to settle down in the future. As long as he continues to solve cases, he can continue to become stronger. The green-clad detective is indeed a good profession.

[Qingyi Shenxing Kung Fu (Seventh Grade Kung Fu): Wearing Tsing Yi, you can perform extremely powerful Qinggong movements. 】

[Must-hit handcuffs (eighth-grade treasure): After use, the target within 30 meters will be bound to be handcuffed. Made of pig iron, it can be regenerated after 12 hours after damage. 】

An escape technique and a treasure for catching enemies, this is very suitable for his status as a new detective.

As for the detective ability that Cao An is most concerned about, doesn't this give him a powerful professional talent?

[Choose one of three suspects: Select three suspects to determine whether there is a murderer among the three. Each case can only be triggered once. 】

It can further narrow down the number of suspects and eliminate three wrong answers no matter how difficult it is. This is a very practical ability.

Thinking back to the detective dramas I watched in my previous life, even an elementary school student could solve a case by choosing one of three, so he should have no problem.

Looking at his harvest, Cao An felt that his future was bright, but those around him felt a little baffled.

"Brother Cao, your Si Tianjian probably doesn't need night patrols on weekdays. Are you not used to it?" Zhu Xian asked from beside him.

This inquiry was actually what Cao An expected.

There's no way, who makes him not even have a sidearm now?
  As detectives, at least everyone present had a steel knife unsheathed, and they were on full alert all the way.

On the other hand, Cao An looked out of place, holding a pair of weird-looking handcuffs, walking with his head buried in his face for a while, and then showing a weird smile. Are all the disciples from Si Tianjian so weird?
  Forced to interrupt his thoughts, Cao An could only follow the topic and nodded in response: "It is true that there is no need for night patrols. Seeing how alert everyone is, this area is not peaceful at night, right?"

Zhu Xian nodded, twisted his wrist, and made a show of force: "It is indeed not peaceful. To be precise, the entire night in Shangjiang City was not very peaceful."

"But didn't I just see the guards on night patrol? They were so intimidating that there were still Xiao Xiaoxiao coming and going at night?" This question made Zhu Xian show a strange expression.

"Jinwu Guard can deal with ordinary prisoners, but as a disciple of Si Tianjian, don't you know the existence of evil spirits?"

"I...should know."

"What about the Changtianmen war ten years ago?"

"It seems... there is an impression."

"In the past, in the Hall of Supreme Harmony, the generals removed their armor, released their military power, and replaced the three divisions with edicts. You must have heard about it."

"Oh, that general, I heard it, I heard it."

"???"

Cao An's erroneous answer, not to mention Zhu Xian, even the few who were listening couldn't help but look at him with surprise.

This Si Tianjian is not practicing hard in the mountains and forests! Why don't you know any of the major events that have happened in the Daxing Dynasty in recent years?
  Zhu Xian finally couldn't help but stop and patted Cao An on the shoulder with his fat hand.

"It's okay if you don't know other things, but it's better for you to get to know that general."

"he is?"

"He is the director of our Tsing Yi Department."

Cao An:......

In just a few words, he exposed his lack of common sense. Who knew that a general would come to build a Tsing Yi Department when he had nothing to do.

Fortunately, this group of people didn't seem to regard Si Tianjian as a normal place. It was not so strange to think that Cao An was Si Tianjian's disciple.

……

The Qingyi Department had a special status in the Daxing Dynasty. It was not under the jurisdiction of the three provinces and six ministries, and it reached Tianting.

The leader is the one who signed off, the general who removed his armor, released his military power, and replaced the three divisions with edicts.

Under the official position is the Tisi, and under the Tisi there are five flags: gold, wood, water, fire, and earth. The flags are held by gold scales, wooden scripts, water embroidery, tinder, and earth clogs respectively.

Zhu Xian was one of the five flag masters of Mu Shu. The small green book he took out and read from time to time seemed to be his magic weapon and was responsible for the internal affairs of the Tsing Yi Department.

As for Cao An and the others, they can only be regarded as white servants now. They need to pass the inspection period before they can be classified into the Five Banners according to their specialties and abilities.

It stands to reason that the recruitment of the six people should be arranged in the evening, and then they should be assigned to dormitories to rest for one night, and they will be ordered on time tomorrow.

Just because the case of the undressed robber broke out, Zhu Xian also ran in both directions, and it was delayed until night.

Now that the situation was urgent, Zhu Xian didn't care too much and directly brought Cao An and the new recruits together for reinforcements.

"Brother Zhu, is this undressed robbery case that serious?"

"It's very serious. The elites from the Six Gates, the Demon Slaying Department, and the Jinwu Guard have all gone over to reinforce. Our Lord Tisi from the Tsing Yi Department is also at the scene of the crime. We must investigate the case tonight no matter what!"

Zhu Xian's low and serious tone made everyone's hearts tremble.

With the joint investigation of multiple departments, it seems that this unclothed thief is no small matter!
  'You must respond with 100% energy! 'Everyone thought so, took a deep breath, and prepared to face the upcoming challenge.

then……

They were led to the gate of Goulan Courtyard by Zhu Xian.

Cao An:? ? ?
