"Peng Ju said before that since the death of his parents, in the entire Fang family, only his grandfather has treated him sincerely."
On the way out, Ling He explained.
Fang Heling's grandfather died not unexpectedly and had been buried long ago. None of them had the ability to pass an autopsy on the memorial tablet. Even though Fang Zehou's surrender of power was a bit strange, this visit was not a good time. Therefore, after worshiping in Linghe, the three of them chose to leave.
"Okay, who doesn't know you, boss?" Zhao Rucheng curled his lips and said, "You are a good guy."
Ling He treats everyone sincerely, but Zhao Rucheng feels wronged by Jiang Wang on the one hand, and rushes to smooth things over on the other.
Jiang Wang just smiled and skipped the topic. He wouldn't mind it.
"What did the Taoist Academy think? The Criminal Investigation Department did not produce any results, and they arranged for us to investigate the matter. Isn't this causing trouble? The Fang family and I are so stubborn."
"Perhaps this is why the Taoist Academy arranged for us to investigate this matter." Zhao Rucheng said.
"Does the Taoist Academy suspect Fang Heling?" Jiang Wang frowned.
"Isn't he worthy of suspicion?" Zhao Rucheng asked back: "In terms of combat power, he has no combat power. In terms of intelligence, he has even less. Why are four people in the team dead and he is the only one left alive?"
"I think he's quite wealthy now." Ling He said something fair: "Besides... he didn't go up the mountain."
"He said he didn't go up the mountain, who knows?" Zhao Rucheng spread his hands.
…
After leaving Fang's house, the second stop Ling He led the team to was the Criminal Investigation Department.
To be precise, it is the office of the Criminal Investigation Department in Maplewood City.
The tasks on the Daoxun List come from a variety of sources. The Ministry of War, the Criminal Investigation Department, the Taoist Academy itself, and even the Zhuang Court can all issue tasks on the Taoist Honor List.
The task that Fang Heling participated in was initiated by the Criminal Investigation Department, and the grade determination was also completed by the Criminal Investigation Department.
The rewards for the eighth-level missions fluctuate between 100 and 500 points. The Daoxun reward set by the Criminal Investigation Department for this task is only 150 points, which is relatively low difficulty among the eighth-grade tasks - this is obviously not in line with the reality.
Two eighth-grade monks and two ninth-grade monks all died in battle. The difficulty of such a task must be at least the top level of eighth grade, which is the difficulty that rewards 500 points of Daoxiang.
In fact, the investigation mission that Linghe and the others took on this time had 300 Daoxuan points, and they were only responsible for the investigation and did not need to deal with subsequent matters. Although there is a factor of 30% higher rewards for designated tasks, it is still a reasonable level determination.
…
As the official agency that handles extraordinary cases, the Criminal Investigation Department is probably used to being arrogant.
Three Taoist monks came to verify the information with the task of Taoist merit list, but no one in the entire Criminal Investigation Department paid attention to them.
Even though Zhao Rucheng was extremely handsome, all the female monks in the Criminal Investigation Department had their eyes set on them and never looked at them.
Ling He took the trouble to ask people one by one, and endured countless blank stares before he found the real owner.
The one who rated the task level from the Criminal Investigation Department was a monk from the Wandering Pulse Realm with a slender eyebrow.
At this time, he was sitting behind the counter, separated by the vertical railing, lowering his head and recording something with a brush, with a very impatient expression on his face: "What do you want?"
The repeated encounters in the Criminal Investigation Department did not affect Ling He's attitude.
He still just smiled and said politely: "We are Taoist disciples, here for the Bingwu mission. Four of our brothers died in that mission..."
"It's this fucking mission again!" Diao Shaomei suddenly threw away the brush in his hand: "Is it over yet?"
Perhaps he had suppressed it for a period of time and felt that these three young faces could be bullied. He suddenly lost his temper and said, "This motherfucker is judging me, and that motherfucker is also judging me. I have already been fined a salary of one yuan." Nian, what else do you want?"
Spit flew everywhere, he slapped the table and roared.
Ling He avoided it for a moment, waiting to say more.
One hand had already broken through the vertical bars on the counter, grabbed the skirt of Diao Shaomei's clothes, and then pulled him out, knocking all the vertical bars away with his face.
Lifting him out of the counter.
"What else do you want?" Jiang Wang had long been dissatisfied, and he was suffocating when he came here. At this time, he no longer cared about whether to measure or not, and twitched his eyebrows and said: "Because of your negligence, the Taoist temple died. Four disciples! They’re dead! There’s nothing left! You were fined a fucking year, isn’t that miserable?”
Diao Shaomei was completely stunned.
Before he had lost his temper, the boy from the Taoist Academy had already taken action. He immediately gathered Dao Yuan, but was directly and brutally defeated.
It's not that he doesn't want to resist, but there really is no room for resistance at all.
The strength gap is too big!
"Hey, hey, hey! What are you doing?"
Other monks in the Criminal Investigation Department who heard the commotion rushed over.
"How can we allow you to be so presumptuous in the important place of the Criminal Investigation Department?"
During the previous inquiry, the entire Criminal Investigation Department was like a haunted house, with everyone silent and expressionless.
There was some trouble at this meeting, and all of a sudden everyone came out.
Ling He's body swayed and he was already standing in front of these people.
"We accepted the Daoxunbang mission and were ordered to investigate the beginning and end of the Bingwu mission. All people involved must cooperate during this period!"
He has a good temper because he is generous, but it does not mean he is timid.
When I accompanied Jiang Wang to Wangjiang City, I was prepared to be splashed with blood.
At this time, he was standing in front of everyone, with an awe-inspiring expression, and Daoyuan was silent.
Everyone in the Criminal Investigation Department was stunned. However, the Taoist List is an important weapon of the country. When monks perform the tasks of the Taoist List, all parties must cooperate. This is also a rule.
Therefore, if today's incident was caused by the uncooperative behavior of the Taoist monks, the attacks of these Taoist monks also have legal basis.
"Then you can't come here blindly!"
"That's right, how do you compensate for damaging public property?"
No matter what, they must protect the face of the Criminal Investigation Department.
"How to compensate?" Zhao Rucheng smiled, stepped forward and said: "There are just a few wooden vertical fences, how much do you have to compensate?"
"This is something from the Criminal Investigation Department! What do you think it is?" The man sneered: "You have to pay a hundred gold no matter what, right?"
His original intention was to let these people retreat when faced with difficulties and know how to behave appropriately.
You must know that for monks, Daoyuan Stone is hard currency. But food, clothing, housing and transportation are still inseparable from gold and silver. One hundred gold is not so easy to get.
But it was unexpected that Zhao Rucheng would laugh for a long time.
"Okay!" He turned to Jiang Wang and said, "Third brother, there's no need to worry about doing it. We'll pay you 10,000 gold. Just treat it as renovating it for the Criminal Investigation Department!"
"..."
"..."
While everyone in the Criminal Investigation Department looked at each other, a middle-aged monk with a gloomy face appeared on the scene.
"It turns out it's Young Master Zhao!" He said with a sly smile: "Are you here to show off your wealth to our Criminal Investigation Department?"
This person is the head of Maplewood City’s Criminal Investigation Department, sixth-grade Tenglong Realm monk Shan Cha.
"Master, I don't dare to say that." In order to prevent Zhao Rucheng from getting angry and aggravating the conflict, Ling He responded first: "We are all disciples of the Taoist Academy. We have received the Taoist Honor List and are just coming to the Criminal Division to investigate the case according to normal procedures. . But the person involved refused to cooperate and even suddenly became angry. In order to avoid making a big fuss, my junior brother had to subdue him first."
He then asked, "How will it look in front of Mr. Shan if the third one lets me go?"
Jiang Wang smiled, and then he loosened his grip and placed the hanging eyebrows firmly on the ground. He also patted him on the shoulder: "Are you okay?"
Diao Shaomei was still in shock and just said: "It's okay, it's okay."
No one can pretend not to have heard the temper he lost earlier. Therefore, when Ling He said this, everyone in the Criminal Investigation Department really couldn't find reason.
"Okay, since this is the normal procedure, everyone will disperse." Shan Cha dispersed everyone, then looked at Diao Shao Mei and said: "These Taoist Academy senior officials have accepted the Taoist List task, what's the problem? , you all answer well, do you understand?"
"I understand, I understand." Diao Shao brow said.
Shan Cha nodded and left with his hands behind his back. From beginning to end, Zhao Rucheng was not mentioned at all about losing money.
"What a tragedy, now I'm being resented." Zhao Rucheng said with a smile.
He said he was miserable, but there was no trace of fear on his face.
Jiang Wang also had an indifferent expression. They are all the best among the Taoist disciples and have a bright future.
If you want to join the Criminal Investigation Department in the future, as long as you keep up with your cultivation, your status will only be higher than Shan Cha. If you don't join the Criminal Investigation Department, then there is nothing to worry about.
As for now, if Shan Cha wants to play some tricks, does he really think that Dong A is not protecting his shortcomings?
"We're not afraid, we're just afraid that we won't be able to take care of family matters." It's hard to say it too directly in front of the worried people. Ling He just nodded lightly to Zhao Rucheng, and then said: "Third brother, please hurry up and ask."
From beginning to end, he never complained about Jiang Wang's recklessness or Zhao Rucheng's arrogance. Even if he accidentally offended a powerful figure like Shan Cha.
Because the three brothers are together, no matter what someone does or what attitude they express, they all bear it together.
