Before long, Su Wu arrived at the Demon Suppression Division, led by Lu Ming.

After a brief verification of Su Wu's identity, they invited him into the interrogation room to hear him recount the events of the case.

Su Wu repeated his confession to Lu Ming, repeating exactly what he had told him.

After recording Su Wu's confession, Han Bing, who was in charge of the examination, returned and carefully compared it with the coroners in the morgue, basically confirming Su Wu's statement.

Lu Ming hurriedly entered the interrogation room and warmly shook Su Wu's hand.

"Alright, Brother Su, thank you for your help."

"It was thanks to your timely intervention, Brother Su, that the gray fox entered the city and prevented the situation from escalating further."

"On behalf of my colleagues in the Demon Suppression Division, I, Lu Ming, thank you."

Faced with Lu Ming's gratitude, Su Wu was also quite embarrassed.

"Not at all, we from the Demon Suppression Prison are also part of the Demon Suppression Division."

"Slaying demons and eliminating evil is also our duty."

"Well said!" Hearing Su Wu's statement, Lu Ming couldn't help but show a look of admiration on his face.

"Su Wu, you've done something truly heroic."

"Our Demon Suppression Division always rewards those who report traces of demons."

"Now that you have personally slain the demon, you deserve an even greater reward!"

At this point, Lu Ming took out a bag of loose silver from his pocket and handed it to Su Wu.

"Here, this is your bonus, take it."

However, when Lu Ming handed him the loose silver, Su Wu did not take it immediately. Instead, he asked Lu Ming a question, feeling a little embarrassed.

"Um, Lord Lu, now that the matter has been investigated, may I go home?"

"I have to go to work tomorrow, and I need to go back to see my sister."

Hearing Su Wu's question, Lu Ming nodded slightly and stuffed the loose silver into Su Wu's hand.

"I understand, go ahead."

Having received permission, Su Wu thanked Lu Ming repeatedly, clutched the money bag in his hand, and quickly turned and left the Demon Suppression Bureau, heading towards Xizhaofang.

As Lu Ming watched Su Wu's figure disappear into the night, the smile on his face gradually faded.

He turned around and looked at Han Bing behind him.

"Han Bing, has Su Wu's information just been verified? Are you sure it's correct?"

Faced with Lu Ming's question, Han Bing dared not delay and quickly spoke up.

"Yes, Brother Lu, we just checked. This Su Wu is a new recruit from the Demon Suppression Prison, who has inherited his father's job."

"He had only recently entered the Demon Suppression Prison, and according to reports submitted from below, he was recently promoted to a full-fledged prison guard."

As they spoke, Han Bing handed a few pages of the classic text in her hand to Lu Ming.

Lu Ming took the book and glanced at it briefly, his eyebrows involuntarily twitching slightly.

"He'd only been in jail a few days, and he got promoted to a regular job just for killing a demon?"

"This kid's got some skills."

Han Bing, who was standing to the side, chimed in with a similar sentiment.

"That's right. He's only been in prison for a few days. Considering the time frame, even if he has learned the basic Demon Suppression Stance of the Demon Suppression Prison, his cultivation level shouldn't have improved so quickly."

"Did you study it in advance?"

"But judging from his physical examination before he went to prison, he was clearly a sickly man with no cultivation."

To prevent demons from invading the internal area, all public officials, whether from the Demon Suppression Prison or the Demon Suppression Division, have their physical condition examined by a specialist using supernatural powers before they take up their posts.

Hearing Han Bing's question, Lu Ming looked in the direction Su Wu had left, and his eyes narrowed slightly.

"If his cultivation is really that fast, advancing to the third level of Body Tempering in just a few days, then we should keep a close eye on this martial arts prodigy."

"If they have great potential, we can consider recruiting them into our Demon Suppression Division in the future."

"Yes!" Han Bing nodded solemnly upon hearing Lu Ming's instructions.

"Alright, continue patrolling."

Seeing that the matter of the fox demon had been resolved, Lu Ming led Han Bing out again.

As she was leaving, Han Bing seemed to remember something and looked at Lu Ming.

"By the way, Brother Lu, didn't that guy named Su Wu say he was going home to see his sister?"

"But the records show that he clearly didn't have a younger sister."

"His sister died three years ago, didn't she?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Ming remained completely unconcerned.

"So what?"

"They said they'd watch it, but they didn't say they'd watch it at home!"

"Can't we go to the cemetery to look?"

"Even if it's at home, what's wrong with having some memorial tablets?"

At this point, Lu Ming flicked Han Bing on the forehead.

"Stop worrying about these trivial things."

"Patrol first!"

"Let's see if any other demons besides the gray fox have managed to sneak into our Lin'an City."

Upon receiving Lu Ming's instructions, Han Bing immediately stood up straight and answered firmly.

"yes!"

Seeing this, Lu Ming kicked Han Bing in the buttocks.

"Don't give me that showy act!"

……

After returning from the Demon Suppression Division, Su Wu quickly went back to his home.

The bloodstains on the ground outside the courtyard gate had been cleaned up by now.

It seems that after Han Bing and his team finished their investigation, they deliberately cleaned up the bloodstains on the ground to prevent the people from panicking.

In this chaotic world of demons, if news of their appearance is allowed to spread, it will inevitably cause panic in the city's various markets and increase the cost of maintaining order.

Su Wu, standing at the door, took a deep breath, took out his key, and opened the gate.

But the moment he opened the door, he froze on the spot.

Because Su Xiaohui, who should have been asleep, was standing in the courtyard waiting for him at some point.

"Xiao Hui..."

Seeing this, Su Wu quickly locked the courtyard gate and strode forward.

"What are you doing out here so late at night, in this cold weather?"

When Su Wu asked her question, Su Xiaohui pouted with a look of grievance on her face.

"What are you doing out so late at night, bro?"

"Do you know how scared I was when I woke up in the middle of the night and didn't see you?"

Hearing the slight sob in Su Xiaohui's voice, Su Wu's heart softened, and he quickly reached out to hug her, gently stroking her hair.

"It's my fault, I had something to do and went out without telling you."

Upon hearing this, Su Xiaohui reached out and hugged Su Wu tightly, sobbing softly.

"Silly girl..."

Feeling the warmth in his arms, Su Wu couldn't help but sigh softly.

"Silly girl, you have to learn to accept separation."

"Otherwise, I'm going to the Demon Suppression Prison to hand over my shift tomorrow. What will you do alone?"

As he spoke, the melancholy in Su Wu's eyes deepened.

"Brother knows you can't bear to part with your brother."

"But you're always like this, unable to accept separation."

"What am I supposed to do?"

"What am I supposed to do all by myself...?"
