Starting as the young master of a medicine shop, he practiced swordsmanship for twenty years.

Chapter 199 Involving the Tianhai Gang!

Thinking about the danger to his four men, Fan Dong suddenly felt a chill!

You can’t see people alive, you can’t see corpses even if you’re dead!
Such a strange situation occurred less than an hour after Fan Dong left.

Could it be haunted in broad daylight?

As soon as this thought came to mind, Fan Dong raised his head, looked at Hong Zhi in front of him, and spoke timidly.

"Master Prefect, what do you think... could it be those ghosts causing trouble?"

As the nephew of Chief Constable Fan Wei, Fan Dong knew a little about those ghost things.

When Fan Wei, who was standing by, heard this, his face instantly turned as black as the bottom of a pot, and he shouted at Fan Dong who was kneeling on the ground.

"nonsense!"

"How could those ghost things appear in broad daylight?"

"You bastard, you just spend all day having fun. Have you forgotten everything I taught you?"

Hong Zhi sat on it, silently looking at Fan Dong and Fan Wei.

It was only at this point that Hong Zhi lost his patience and spoke calmly.

"All right."

As Hong Zhi spoke, the hall suddenly became quiet.

Fan Wei, who was full of anger just now, acted as if nothing had happened.

Hong Zhi raised his head slightly and glanced at Fan Wei, knowing that the other person was putting on a show for him.

Fan Dong is his nephew, so he naturally wants to try his best to protect Fan Dong from being severely punished.

The next moment, Hong Zhi spoke directly and made the decision to punish Fan Dong.

"Fan Dong, you've neglected your duty. I'll temporarily deduct half a year's salary from you as a warning to you!"

As the chief constable of the government office, Fan Wei has been working diligently for many years, so Hong Zhi did not really intend to severely punish Fan Dong.

When Fan Dong heard that he would only be fined for half a year, he was delighted. He quickly stood up and kept bowing and nodding to Hong Zhi.

"Yes, I accept the punishment. Your Excellency the Prefect is wise and powerful!"

This trivial punishment had no effect on Fan Dong at all.

No serious official would live on that meager salary.

That little salary from the court is not even enough for me to spend a few days in Xinyue Tower.

Fan Dong disguised himself as an official and relied on the identity of his uncle Fan Wei, the chief constable in the government office.

To exaggerate a bit, the people who wanted to give money to Fan Dong could line up outside the government office.

"Have you found out the cause of Wu Wei's death?"

"Sir, I...I...I."

Hong Zhi's question made Fan Dong feel uneasy, and he stammered and was unable to speak.

Because, with Fan Dong's experience, he couldn't tell the cause of death of the unlucky guy Wu Wei.

"I simply checked Wu Wei's meridians and confirmed that he was dead."

"As for the rest, I haven't had time to investigate in detail."

"I was thinking of carrying Wu Wei back to the morgue and conducting a thorough investigation."

Fan Dong's incompetent answer made Hong Zhi's face stiffen. He looked at Fan Wei with dissatisfaction, as if questioning Fan Wei.

Look who you are bringing with you!

Immediately, Hong Zhi lost the mood to ask Fan Dong and waved his hand casually.

"Okay, there's nothing for you to do here, go down!"

After Fan Dong stumbled away, Hong Zhi looked at Fan Wei.

"Those four yamen runners disappeared mysteriously in Shuimen Lane. Have you been there?" "Did you feel anything unusual?"

"Unusual feeling?" Fan Wei immediately understood Hong Zhi's meaning and answered without hesitation: "To answer your Excellency, no."

"I immediately went to Shuimen Alley to check, and there was no evil aura from those ghostly things."

I think it was what Fan Dong said just now that made the prefect Hong Zhi suspicious of those ghost things.

However, this ghost thing that appeared in broad daylight is probably not the legendary disaster-level monster!

Hong Zhi and Fan Dong looked at each other, as if they had thought of this terrible result at the same time.

However, after thinking about it for a moment, Hong Zhi felt that this idea was extremely absurd.

If it really was the legendary disaster-level monster, then with its terrifying yin energy, it would have been noticed by the Xuanniao Guards long ago.

Not only Hong Zhi understood it this way, even Fan Wei felt that it could not be the legendary disaster-level weirdness.

At this moment, a gleam of light flashed in Fan Wei's eyes, and he thought of some things about Wu Wei.

"Sir, when I came here just now, I investigated some things about Wu Wei."

"I've discovered that this Wu Wei seems to have some connection with the leader of the Tianhai Gang!"

"Oh?"

Seeing this, Hong Zhi signaled Fan Wei to continue.

"Wu Wei married a beautiful wife a few years ago. A few months ago, the Tianhai Gang held a grand birthday banquet for the old leader's 100th birthday."

"I have also accompanied you there before, and this Wu Wei, representing the Wu Family Boxing Gym's owner, also attended the old gang leader's birthday banquet."

"This Wu Wei loves to show off every day, and he even brought his beautiful wife along."

"Then, the old gang leader's son, Hua Yunfei, the leader of the Tianhai Gang, has a little hobby."

"That's a good wife..."

“So, I suspect…”

When Fan Wei said this, he looked at Hong Zhi knowingly. He suspected that Wu Wei's death was related to the leader of the Tianhai Gang.

"The Tianhai Gang?"

Hong Zhi felt a little embarrassed when he thought of the old guy Hua Tianhai from the Tianhai Gang.

"Forget it, don't worry about Hua Tianhai. I'll send someone to notify him to come over."

"You are to personally lead your men to Shuimen Alley and find those four yamen runners and Wu Wei's body."

"If there is anything unusual happening in Watergate Alley, come back and inform me immediately!"

Hong Zhi would not alarm the Xuanniao Guards until he was sure that it was that kind of ghost thing.

"Yes, my lord!"

After leaving the lobby, Fan Wei did not stop for a moment. He left the government office with a dozen yamen runners and headed straight for Shuimen Lane in the east of the city.

Shuimen Lane, Wu family mansion!

At this time, white lanterns were hung inside and outside the Wu family mansion.

Not far from the gate of the Wu family mansion, more than a dozen men in yamen uniforms appeared.

The leader of the team was none other than Fan Wei, the chief constable of the government office!
As Fan Wei walked, he looked around the Wu family mansion and found nothing unusual.

And the old yamen runner behind Fan Wei seemed to be very familiar with Fan Wei.

After seeing the Wu family mansion, the old yamen runner felt a little confused and asked in confusion.

"Old Fan, isn't this the residence of Wu Wei, the owner of the Wu Family Boxing Gym?"

"Didn't you send that kid Fan Dong here today? Why do we have to come here again?"

Upon hearing this, Fan Wei slowed down his pace and told the story of the four yamen runners and the disappearance of Wu Wei's body.
