I have a magical tree

We have been colleagues for several years. Although we are not in the same government office or faction, we still know each other well.

Qin Zhan is the kind of person who doesn't care about anything unless it's time. The local forces have spent a lot of effort and capital in his ascension to the position of the chief of the Inspection Department.

Therefore, when he does things, he must first consider the interests of the local faction, and then other things. As for loyalty to the king, it's just a casual remark, and he doesn't even believe it.

Therefore, he doesn't really like to manage things. There are the county lord and the county magistrate above, and a group of leaders below who are pushing and shoving, instigating and clamoring, which is really uncomfortable.

As a local faction, he can neither suppress those local forces nor resist the county lord, which is a loser!

But this person is actually a good person. He is not the kind of person who is arrogant and arrogant. At least he can keep his word and keep his promise.

The reason why he chose to agree to this matter is because this case is no longer a simple case of demons. If it is a case of demons, then Qin Zhan will turn around and leave. This is the job of the Demon Suppression Department. Why ask him?

But if it is man-made, it falls within the scope of the duties of the Inspection Department. While it is not completely certain that it is not the work of demons, it can still borrow the help of the Demon Suppression Department. If Wang Xian really determines that it is not the work of demons, he may just throw it to the Inspection Department and leave it alone.

It will be more troublesome at that time. Now at least there is someone to help bear the pressure.

"Did you find the person who delivered the message?" Qin Zhan asked.

"No! The note that the person delivered the message was made up of words cut from books."

"Mine too!" Qin Zhan nodded, "Even the handwriting is not revealed, that's fine, the message was prepared long ago, but it was placed with a mechanism. It will not be triggered when the time is not right. When it is triggered, there is no breath."

"So cautious, and sophisticated." The process of Wang Xian getting the message is similar. It can only be said that the person who delivered the message was very familiar with the means they had.

So, it is very likely that it was a subordinate colleague.

But this also shows that the message has a certain degree of reliability.

Even if Qin Zhan did encounter a demon in the process of tracking, he can be sure that it was a demon, not a disguised person. But the message is clear and convincing, and he can't help but think about it.

"We have such a capable person under our command, but we don't know about it. It's really interesting!" Qin Zhan shook his head and prepared to leave.

And a demon envoy from the Demon Suppression Department hurried over and was about to come in, but seeing that there were Qin Zhan in the room besides Wang Xian, he stopped and waited aside.

"Come in! Is it official or private?"

The demon envoy walked in quickly, "Official!"

"Then just say it directly, it's not something shameful, do you still have to avoid Qin Sizhu?" Wang Xian waved his hand.

The public and private here do not really refer to the difference between public and private, but to whether it can be said publicly or only in private.

Sure enough, Qin Zhan, who wanted to leave, did not leave. He reached out and picked up the teacup in front of him, but there was no water in the cup. He just drank it up.

"Last night at the time of Yin, the night watchman encountered a strange bat in the outer courtyard. Then today, there was news that it was the same as last night. There was also a demon outside the city."

"Was it discovered by the people of the Inspection Office? Or the Demon Suppression Office?" Wang Xian just nodded when he heard it. Both the Inspection Office and the Demon Suppression Office have night watchmen. As long as the traces of the demon are found, or after the demon is killed, it needs to be reported to the Demon Suppression Office for inspection and unified credit.

The court may be stingy in other aspects, but the reward for the merit of killing demons is very generous. Those are all real merits, according to the level of the demon, clearly stipulated, and it is impossible to deduct it.

"It was the people of the Inspection Office!" The demon-suppression envoy glanced at Qin Zhan.

Qin Zhan's face immediately darkened. The people of the Inspection Office found the demon, but he didn't know it at the first time. Wang Xian looked at Qin Zhan's changing face and was a little funny.

"What are the casualties?" Wang Xian suppressed his smile and continued to ask.

"No one was killed in the outer quarters. When the inspection department arrived, the monster had been killed."

"Outside the city, dozens of refugees were killed, but the monster was also killed!"

Wang Xian's smile disappeared, but Qin Zhan's expression suddenly eased.

However, they all remembered one thing, the multi-eyed monster that was killed. At the beginning, when they arrived, it had also been killed.

How similar the two are!

"That monster bat is of low-level peak level. But the one outside the city... is mid-level peak!" The demon suppressor continued.

Wang Xian and Qin Zhan stood up at the same time, staring at the demon suppressor.

"Really?"

What is the concept of a mid-level peak monster? Not to mention Qin Zhan, who is only at the peak of the sixth level, even Wang Xian would have to retreat.

The last time Qin Zhan was seriously injured and nearly died, it was because he encountered a mid-level peak monster. In the end, he was lucky enough to save his life.

Wang Xian had killed a mid-level demon before, and was injured for it. That demon was still a little short of its peak.

"Let's go and have a look!"

The two first went to the outer quarters to have a look, because they knew that this matter was serious. Now the body of the demon bat had not been processed or moved, but was kept as it was, specially for Wang Xian and others.

Then they went outside the city, and the same thing happened here, but the scene was fenced off, and the body of the mid-level peak demon had not been moved either.

Before the government came, the refugees did not move. In fact, even if they were asked to touch it, they would not dare to touch it. This is not gold, silver, rice, or grain, but a terrifying monster.

"It is indeed a monster at the peak of the middle level!" Wang Xian nodded after just a slight sense.

Qin Zhan shook his head woodenly, "It didn't hurt my head!"

"Can you see anything else?"

"You want to ask, is it the man last time?"

Wang Xian nodded.

"Yes, although it has been covered up, I think this monster died from the sword, but the damage is very serious, and it is no longer clear what the method is."

"What does this person want to do? Last time, it can be said that he happened to pass by and did it by chance, but what about this time? Two in a row, it can't be a coincidence, right?"

They hunt monsters for rewards and merits. Even if there are rewards to be taken, they will not take the initiative to hunt monsters unless they have no choice. After all, no matter how good the reward is, it is not as important as life.

And this person hunted monsters without revealing his identity, let alone exchanging for rewards, so why? Because it's fun?

"I don't know, report it! I don't understand Yanghe County recently! It feels like things are happening one after another!" Qin Zhan sighed, feeling tired.

Wang Xian was actually in the same boat. He thought that the man would stop after the last attack, but he didn't expect to show up again now.

He was happy and uncomfortable when someone hunted monsters, because the county lord would definitely ask him to speed up the investigation of the identity of the person who did it!
