Loan Wusheng

Chapter 17: Handling the Job
The next day, early in the morning.

The morning light appears, the sky is full of rays of light, the night gradually fades away, and the sky becomes brighter.

Sun Bantou got up early, put on his official robe with the help of his wife, and then strode towards the county government office.

"Lou Wei, Liang Fan and other big thieves roaming around the county have not been caught yet. And the Five Organs Kung Fu has appeared... Why are there so many troubles these days?"

While walking on the road, Sun Bantou felt a little headache.

These matters originated from the county government office. The county magistrate threw the matters to the head of the clerks, the Dianshi, and the Dianshi threw the matters to himself, the head of the express team.

It's really eaten layer by layer.

But at the moment, I don’t have any capable people.

The previous batch of old men who had been refining blood all went up to Black Mountain and were eaten by the demon.

Nowadays, there are only a few blood-refining warriors in the fast squad, and he, the squad leader, is forced to go on patrol in the streets. How can squad leader Sun explain this?

If you encounter those thieves...

Sun Bantou sighed deeply and felt a headache.

Just as the sky was getting light, he arrived at the yamen.

Suddenly, Sun Bantou saw a group of early-arriving police officers surrounding the third squad courtyard, which surprised him.

"What are you doing here? Why don't you go into the classroom?"

As Sun Bantou spoke, he walked inside. However, just after he passed these police officers, he suddenly froze.

A figure, his uniform stained with blood, was sitting on a bench in front of the classroom door.

A bloody broken knife was casually placed aside. The owner of the figure was drinking tea leisurely, and at his feet was a bloody human head!
The head's eyes were wide open, filled with unspeakable fear.

Blood flowed down his neck, seeped into the soil, and emitted a bloody smell.

Seeing this scene, Sun Bantou couldn't help but tremble, and subconsciously tightened the handle of the knife: "Zheng Sanlang, what are you doing?!"

Seeing Bantou Sun coming, Zheng Jun smiled lightly, casually put the tea bowl aside, and stood up slowly.

Seeing Zheng Jun standing up, the surrounding police officers became unconsciously panicked, and even squad leader Sun became a little nervous.

Just as he was about to draw his sword, Zheng Jun bowed and said, "Captain, this guy came to kill me last night, but I killed him! If you kill this thief, I will come to the authorities with my head on my shoulders. Please ask Captain Sun and Dianshi Xu to handle the matter."

"you……"

After hearing Zheng Jun's explanation, Sun Bantou was stunned for a long time. He tried to hold it in for a long time but couldn't utter a word.

Even so, do you really need to come to the county government with your head on the line?

The county magistrate's residence is just behind the county government office. Aren't you afraid of alarming the county magistrate?

Sun Bantou was very helpless. He then forced himself to exhale a breath and said to Zheng Jun, "Do you have any evidence? Words are not enough."

There must be evidence.

Otherwise, if you randomly hack and kill someone on the street, saying that the other person stabbed you first and you were forced to fight back, is there any order in the court?
If you are a prince or a noble, then you can do this.

But Zheng Jun was obviously not a prince, and his family had no spare money, so he had to ask for proof.

"There must have been someone who heard the fight that night, so the traces cannot be faked."

Zheng Jun said calmly, "Besides, this man wields a broadsword, and when he chopped me he used the 'Treading Wave Knife'. Judging from his face, he should be Liang Fan, the chief disciple of Lou Wei who is wanted in the notice."

"It's already stated in the notice that whoever kills Liang Fan will be rewarded with five taels of silver."

Hearing Zheng Jun's decisive words, Bantou Sun was stunned.

Then he looked carefully at the head on the ground.

After careful identification, he looked exactly like Liang Fan, except for some blood stains on his face.

Sun Bantou was immediately ecstatic!
"It's Liang Fan for sure!"

Seeing this, Sun Bantou was immediately delighted, and then he looked at Zheng Jun and said repeatedly: "Sanlang is so talented! Why did this Liang thief come to murder Sanlang? Sanlang killed this Liang thief this time, which really eliminated a great harm for Heishan County!"

"Liang the thief was Lou Wei's most proud disciple, and the only blood-refining warrior among Lou Wei's disciples. Now he is dead here, the government will reward him handsomely!"

Sun Bantou was overjoyed and didn't care about anything else. He continued, "I will report to the Dianshi Lord and ask for merit for you! The five taels of silver will be granted tomorrow at the latest!"

Just as he was about to take two steps, Bantou Sun immediately remembered that it was not yet time to report, so he slapped his forehead.

Since the person killed was Liang Fan, there would be no problem.

Not to mention being killed in a night raid, even if he was encountered on the street and killed with a sword, the court would not hold Zheng Jun responsible for any crime, but would even commend him for his merits! However,

Can you kill Liang Fan?

Could it be that Zheng Jun has already mastered the eagle power? !
Thinking of this, Sun Bantou was suddenly a little stunned. He stared at Zheng Jun blankly, feeling a little unbelievable: "You, you have mastered the Eagle Power?"

"Ah."

When Zheng Jun saw Sun Bantou's expression, he nodded slightly.

When he saw Zheng Jun admit it, Bantou Sun was shocked and didn't know what to say.

He didn't recognize Liang Fan before.

The reason I knew about Liang Fan was because I heard it from Zhao Da.

After chopping off the head, Zheng Jun carefully compared it with the wanted poster and only then was he able to confirm the identity of the attacker.

Then come and ask for reward.

But it wasn’t just Liang Fan who died last night.

There are also Zhao Da and Zhao Er.

And Zhang Qingyu's brother-in-law.

On the same night, he was able to completely clear himself of suspicion by putting the blame on the already dead Liang Fan, thus saving himself the trouble of hiding the body and conducting an interrogation.

If the killing happened a few days later, it would be difficult to justify it.

but……

Zheng Jun's eagle eyes were whirling around. The constables and quick hands around him were treating him like a god. They looked at Zheng Jun, who was like a killing god, with complicated expressions and mixed feelings in their hearts.

After all, Zheng Jun was a newcomer who had only been exposed to martial arts for a month, but now he was able to kill the villain on the notice.

Although this thief's strength is not top-notch, it is enough to prove Zheng Jun's strong martial arts skills.

There are looks of envy, jealousy, or even resentment.

However, when Zheng Jun looked at them, whether with envy or resentment, they all looked away, not daring to look at Zheng Jun.

Zheng Jun, you have achieved great success!
After realizing that Zheng Jun was no longer as powerful as before, Bantou Sun's attitude improved a lot. He said to Zheng Jun, "Sanlang, you are covered in blood. It's too inappropriate for you to meet the county magistrate and the prefect! There are newly embroidered uniforms in the class room. Go get one and change into it. Wash off the blood smell on your body!"

"Your sword is too crude. How can a real man use a broken blade?! Today I'm meeting the historian, and I'll talk to him about getting you a new sword. A precious sword should be worthy of a hero!"

Bantou Sun greeted Zheng Jun warmly.

Zheng Jun believed that if one did not take advantage of an opportunity, he would be a fool. He immediately clasped his fists, said "thank you, squad leader", and went to take a shower and change clothes.

After Zheng Jun left, Sun Bantou went to the Dianshi Mansion without saying a word.

The Dianshi was the head of the clerks in the county government, and was in charge of all the clerks in the county government.

He was the fifth in command of the county government and lived in a house near the government office.

Sun Bantou hurriedly reported and entered the Dianshi Mansion.

The Registrar Xu Heng had already gotten up and was practicing martial arts in the yard, swinging a stick up and down, creating gusts of wind.

The squad leader Sun rushed in, looking ecstatic, and said to the Dianshi: "Sir, great news! Liang Fan went crazy last night and tried to assassinate our squad leader Zheng Jun, but was killed by Zheng Jun!"

When Xu Heng heard the first half of Sun Bantou's speech, he did not react at all.

However, when he heard that Liang Fan was killed, the official Xu Heng was stunned and asked in astonishment: "You said that Zheng Jun killed Liang Fan?"

"Yes."

Bantou Sun didn't pay attention to Xu Heng's expression, but said happily: "This time Zheng Jun killed Liang Fan, we finally have something to report! When the time comes, we can also put the blame on Liang Fan for this magic skill, and the county lord will definitely reward us!"

Xu Dianshi nodded, but his expression was not so good.

"What a crap job those Zhao brothers did!"

Xu Dianshi cursed in his heart and was about to say something when he saw a quick hand suddenly running in from the county government office, sweating profusely: "Dianshi Sir, squad leader! It's a disaster, it's a disaster!"

"There's a murder in the city, a big murder!"

Hearing the words of the quick hand, Sun Bantou frowned. Just when he was about to say something, he saw the quick hand continue: "Zhao Bantou of the Zhuangban and the constables Liu Yaozu, Zhao Qing, and Zhang Buhai in the squad are all dead!"

After hearing this, Sun Bantou had no reaction, but Dianshi Xu Heng was suddenly shocked: "Zhao Da and Zhao Er are dead?!"

How could they both die?!
