Arriving at the Divine Catching Division, everyone took their seats. Luofan, the newcomer, picked the last seat and sat down.
Xie Xu looked at Luofan and said: "Before discussing the matter, we have to make some arrangements with Luofan. He is the thunder god catcher personally appointed by the King of Tiandu, and he will be our colleague from now on. You four, see which one is missing. Man, let him choose which one he belongs to."
When the other detectives heard this, they all looked at the four deputy chief detectives, but the four of them looked at each other with reluctance and rejection on their faces. Wang Luochuan was half yin and half yang at first, and said sarcastically: "Thunder God Captor is now a big shot in Dragon City. He can even kill a master like Feng Laijiang. I, Wang Luochuan, believe that his abilities are mediocre, so I don't dare to lead him."
The other three sneered. Li Qilin played with his temples and said with a soft smile: "Yes. This is a living Yama. Even the four major families dare to beat and scold someone. The God Catcher King doesn't dare to take it, so what about me?" The juniors don’t even dare to ask for it.”
Seeing this, Xie Xu looked at Bai Tianya: "Bai Shen Cao, where is your Kamikaze Department. I think your department has the least number of divine arrests, otherwise Luofan should join your department."
Bai Tianya also looked cold and harsh, and had no intention of being kind. He is the young leader of the Golden Dragon Gang and has always dealt with wealthy families. He deeply despises people from small places like Xie Xu and Luo Fan. Crossing his arms, he said coldly and disdainfully: "My Kamikaze Department doesn't need so many people. I think the Thunder God is very capable, so it would be more suitable for him to go to the Divine Weapon Department."
Ni Xixiong, the deputy chief of the Divine Weapon Department, is the son of the Purple Spear King Ni Guan. His martial arts skills are truly unique. Unfortunately, he has a hot temper and is not easy to get along with others. When he heard that Bai Tianya had pushed this unwanted person to him, no matter what, he directly hammered the table and said angrily: "Why should you give me the person you don't want? I don't need it either."
The scene was awkward for a moment, with the four vice-presidents all keeping straight faces and curling their lips coldly. He Mingming sighed and said with a smile: "You see, the living Yama is so unpopular that no one dares to ask for it." "Don't talk nonsense, they don't dare to ask for it. Everyone knows Luofan's ability to cause trouble. How many days can you live as his boss?" Ye Tan whispered back.
Seeing this, Xie Xu was in a dilemma. Except for Wang Luochuan, all the other four deputy chief detectives had strong backgrounds, so they couldn't do it forcefully.
He could only advise: "Luofan is the divine arrester personally appointed by King Tiandu. He can't do it alone. Since we are colleagues, we should tolerate and take care of each other. I have seen Luofan's ability in investigating cases. Yes. If any of you can get him, you will definitely be able to do things more easily in the future. Wang Shenzhen, otherwise I’d better go to your department. If Luo Fan can cooperate with you in investigating the case, he will definitely be even more powerful."
When Wang Luochuan heard this, he was about to object, but Luofan said first: "Hey, Mr. Xie, the so-called tigers don't keep company with wolves. I think I don't need to go to their four tribes, so as not to scare them and make them sleep uneasy. That's all I do Just stay alone. Just do what the four of you do on weekdays. If you need help, I will lend a hand. If you don't need me, I will stay away. This way everyone is better."
"Hey! Who do you think is the jackal?" Everyone became angry when they heard this.
Xie Xu said helplessly: "Okay, okay. In that case, Luofan will not join your fourth department. He will fall under my name and be considered my deputy. That's it. Now, fourth brother, tell me Well, what is the first case that King Tiandu gives us."
Zhang Tianjun stood up and said: "The first case of the gods is the case of missing people in the palace. Since half a year ago, someone has disappeared in the palace every half a month. Sometimes one person is missing, sometimes two people are missing. The missing people are A total of fourteen people, including maids, servants, and guards, have been lost so far. And these missing people seem to have disappeared out of thin air. There is no trace of them anymore, not even their bodies. For this reason, the palace has strengthened its security several times, but it still doesn't work. It’s no use. King Tiandu will hand over the case to your Chief Inspector. This is a detailed file, please take a look.”
Xie Xu took the dossier and read it hastily before passing it to Wang Luochuan. Sima Yuliang was the first to speak and asked: "Since everyone has disappeared and there are no bodies. Could it be that all those people escaped from the palace, so they cannot be found?"
Zhang Tianjun shook his head and said: "No. We know everything about the families of all the people in the palace. They have not gone home. Also, since the accident, the palace has tightened its security. If you want to leave the palace, you need more than a dozen checks. , it is impossible for so many people to leave silently. And when several people disappeared, someone nearby clearly heard their shouts for help. According to the investigation, many people had seen a ghost figure when the accident happened, but there was no People can see clearly. Therefore, we infer that there must be bad people hiding in the palace to do evil."
After reading the dossier, Wang Luochuan said with pride, "Well, there are no ghosts in the world. They are just pretending to be ghosts. However, someone who can create ghosts in a palace full of masters must also be a master. I looked at what is written in the dossier and it seems that something is missing. The population is all concentrated near the Chuyang Hall of the palace. Is there anything special there?"
Zhang Tianjun replied: "Chuyang Hall is the palace of the previous generation of King Tiandu. Since the death of King Tiandu, Chuyang Hall has been empty and no one can come and go. After the accident, we also went in to check and found no clues. . Later, the patrols were intensified several times to ensure that no criminals were hidden inside."
He Mingming had an idea and said with a smile: "Hey, I heard that the courtyards of the nobles in this palace like to build some secret rooms. Is it possible that there are some unknown secret rooms in Chuyang Palace? After killing the thief, The person hid in the secret room, so you couldn’t find him.”
"No. We have also thought about this problem and hired many skilled craftsmen to search carefully according to the map of the palace. We searched every wall and every piece of land, but we did not find anything like a secret room."
"This is too strange. If he is really a peerless master, why would he kidnap these useless maids and servants? This is unreasonable. And it has lasted for half a year. This thing is really weird." He Mingming.
"Hmph. It doesn't matter who he is, as long as I, Wang Luochuan, go to the scene in person, no matter what kind of ghost he is, I can make him act." Wang Luochuan said proudly.
Zhang Tianjun said: "Okay. I will leave the file for you to study, and I will return to the palace. Tomorrow I will prepare all relevant witnesses and arrange for you to enter the palace to investigate. Everyone, be prepared."
After Zhang Tianjun left, Xie Xu arranged: "Everyone, tomorrow is the first case of our Detective Department. This case must be solved well. Detective King Detective's skills are world-famous, and this time your Detective Department will be in charge. Investigate the case. Li Qilin, you are responsible for adjusting all the joints of the palace and preparing the witnesses and physical evidence to be questioned. The rest of us will assist in the investigation."
At this time, Ni Xixiong suddenly slapped the table and objected: "Why give it to Wang Luochuan for the first case! He is very good at solving cases, why can't I do it? I want to investigate the first case!"
Everyone was a little puzzled. Who knows that Ni Xixiong is a martial arts fanatic who likes to dance with swords and sticks on weekdays. Why did he start a fight with Wang Luochuan to investigate the case? This is not in line with this guy's humanity.
And Ni Xixiong did not want to fight to investigate the case, but wanted to anger Xie Xu for an excuse. He had long heard that Xie Xu was Yu Wenlan's apprentice, and everyone said that his father Ni Guan was said to be the best gun in the world, but the number one gun in the world in the Black Blood Tower was far lower than Yuwen Lan's. Lan is ninth in the world.
With such a ranking, he was naturally not convinced. But he was not convinced, and he couldn't beat Yu Wenlan. So, he wanted to fight Xie Xu to see the true ability of this crazy lion palm.
Xie Xu was also surprised by Ni Xixiong's difficulty and said: "Hey, Ni Shen arrested Wang Luochuan, who is desperate and is a master of investigating cases. This case is of great importance, so it is safer for him to be in charge. Your Shen Wen Department is mainly responsible for arresting people. , when the murderer is found, you will naturally show your authority."
Ni Xixiong slapped the table and glared: "What do you mean, I am just a fool? Xie Xu, don't think that just because you are the chief arrester, you can give orders. To tell you the truth, I just don't obey you. Why should you? As the chief catcher, you may not be able to beat me in terms of strength. If you really want me to obey, it won't be difficult. Let's go out and have a few moves now. If you can defeat me, I will recognize you as the boss of the catcher department!"
Wang Luochuan all looked at it, and they all secretly became happy. Hey, after a long time of turmoil, Ni Xixiong is looking for a fight with Xie Xu. This kid is in for a good show.
Xie Xu's face wrinkled with anger, and he couldn't even get off the stage. Today is my first day in office. If I can't suppress Ni Xixiong, I'm afraid it will be even harder to do my job in the future. But if you really want to fight him, this is not in line with the rules of officialdom. If word gets out, people will just say that he, Xie Xu, has no ability to lead his subordinates. What's more, he is still seriously injured and has only 20 to 30% of his skill left. I am afraid he is no match for Ni Xixiong.
The scene was embarrassing for a while, and other people also watched the show.
Zhao Xue knew Xie Xu was in trouble, and slapped the table and shouted: "Ni Xixiong, don't be so shameless. Even the King of Heaven can't beat you, why don't you become the King of Heaven? You have some Kung Fu as a three-legged cat, let's see what you can do Yes. If my eldest brother wants to take action, he is afraid that he will beat you into a meat pie with one palm, and then your father will cry and cause trouble for us!"
