Yongyuan Supervisory Authority.
As the most powerful law enforcement and even legislative body of the Great Shang Dynasty, the Supervisor can be said to be the brightest official in the world.
But...
All the Overwatch Council buildings were dark.
Whether it is the Youxian Supervisory Office or the Longyuan Supervisory Office.
Their structures, walls, inner walls, and even eaves, porcelain tiles, and floor tiles are all extremely dull black.
Tie Tang went to Youxian Supervisory Office several times before, but it was for official business.
Entering here as a suspect... is undoubtedly a different experience.
The dark interrogation room was extremely simple, with only a desk, two wicker chairs, and a copper oil lamp with a crane's mouth as tall as a person placed in the corner.
Tie Tang and Zhao Mingzhe sat on both sides of the desk, looking at each other.
"What's your name, and where do you live?"
"Tietang, Yuncheng."
"Why did you come to Longyuan?"
"Watch the Qujiang Feast."
"As far as I know, you are the chief arrester of a party. How can you have time to come here? Could it be that you have other purposes?"
"No!"
"Where were you at the time of the incident?"
"May I ask, Mr. Inspector, when is the crime happening?"
"What? Want to steal information and start making up lies?"
Tie Tang was happy.
He looked at Zhao Mingzhe and asked lightly: "Are you serious? Is this the only way the inspector can do it?"
"Hahahaha!" Zhao Mingzhe laughed loudly, and his powerful laughter echoed in the secret room, almost breaking Tie Tang's eardrums.
Is this guy...showing force?
After Zhao Mingzhe smiled, his expression changed, and he said calmly: "Zhao also heard about the name Iron God Capture.
When it comes to finding the murderer and solving the case, it is deceptive... even I dare not say that it is better than an iron arrester.
To deal with people like you.
Sometimes using the simplest method often has miraculous results.
I wonder what the Iron Catcher thinks of this move? "
Tie Tang remained as still as a mountain, tapping his index finger lightly on the table.
“In that case, let’s open the skylight and speak out.
After Lao Wang and I met with Mr. Tang at the county government, we have been in the public eye. Even if they are unwilling to testify for me, it will not be difficult for the supervisor to find out the truth.
When we came back from the trial site, we stayed with Magistrate Zhang. All these county officials and others can testify.
Tie asked himself——
Regardless of when the crime occurred, I have ample alibi. "
"Okay! Iron catcher is so happy." Zhao Mingzhe clapped his hands and asked a cold question.
"So what if Tang Dutou and others... died underwater?"
Um?
Tie Tang's heart skipped a beat, feeling vaguely that something was not good.
Zhao Mingzhe noticed the change in his expression and continued to press: "Someone told me that he saw you and Wang Andao opening the door to the trial place and walking out on your own.
And I have never seen you two in the secret realm.
In the middle....
Who is talking nonsense? "
"Old Wang and I did enter the trial site, but after the Desire Lotus purified the fire, we chose to exit." Tie Tang did not deny it.
Because when they went out, in addition to the water tribe, there were also a few sporadic human figures outside, so these deeds could not be hidden from the supervisor.
Quite the opposite.
He also needs these people to vouch for him.
“If you encounter an unexpected encounter, or you don’t go in from the beginning, how can you choose to retreat after passing the first hurdle?
Could it be that the two Iron Catchers have some ulterior motives? "
"I just sensed the danger and didn't want to move on."
After Tie Tang finished speaking, he looked directly at Zhao Mingzhe and said slowly: "If Tie didn't guess wrong... I guess the supervisor is inside, so there shouldn't be much gain, right?
There - it should be the legacy of the sage Jiaolong!
When humans go in, most of the time they return empty-handed. "
Zhao Mingzhe's eyebrows were raised upside down and his expression was displeased. It was obvious that Tie Tang had convinced him.
He was indeed busy in vain.
If it wasn't for his strong strength, he might not be able to come out in a while.
"Sure enough, you are worthy of the name of the Divine Catcher. Everything you said has been recorded by me and I will verify it one by one later.
Now... please ask the iron catcher to wait at our Supervisory Yuan. "
"Can I still say no?" Tie Tang laughed at himself, got up and followed Zhao Mingzhe out of the secret room.
——
It was late at night, the stars were shining brightly, and inexplicable roars could be heard from time to time in the Overwatch Council.
The sound sounded like a human but not a human, like an animal but not an animal. I don’t know what kind of eerie and strange existence it is.
Tie Tang and Wang Andao were sitting in the main hall of the Supervisory Yuan, drinking tea that had already gone bad, feeling bored.
"Old Wang, the Overwatch Council can't do anything to you. Aren't you going to go sideways in this world?"
"Pull down Tietou, I will also forcefully pull off the tiger's skin.
He couldn't arrest me, but if he put a sack on me in the middle of the night and beat me up, what could I do?
You have to have a strong fist!
It's a pity that my martial arts talent is average. I don't know how far I can go after entering the secret realm of Wu Jin. "At this point, Wang Andao was a little downcast.
"How can a dignified inspector do such a childish thing?"
"You don't know how to be an inspector? You are the third rank of the imperial court..." Wang Andao did not continue, because there was an outsider in the hall.
Zhao Mingzhe walked in with a strange expression, holding a letter in his hand.
"I didn't expect that the iron catcher... is also a member of our generation, look at it."
A yellowed cowhide envelope was handed to Tie Tang. It was also engraved with the mark of a delicate Qiushui Yanling knife.
This is an official document from Dashang Inspection Department.
Can you come to Qingshui County?
"What do you mean, sir?"
Tie Tang pointed to the fire seal on the letter, which had been opened, indicating that Zhao Mingzhe had read the letter inside.
"I was afraid that the inspection department would protect my subordinates, so I opened it and checked it as usual." Zhao Mingzhe looked up at the sky of the hall, his eyes evasive.
"Tie Tang will report this matter truthfully."
"Do it yourself." Zhao Mingzhe obviously didn't care.
The Inspection Department and the Oversight Council... just fight each other and that's it. No one has ever tried to scare anyone away. Talking about anything else is nonsense.
Tie Tang took out the letter and just glanced at it, he felt a tall figure appear in his mind, like a mountain cliff or the top of a cliff, majestic and majestic.
What does it mean to see the words as the face?
This is the true meaning of seeing words and seeing faces!
"I respectfully acknowledge you, Iron Captor, I am Yan Su, the commander of Qingshui County.
Regarding the death of the chief arrester of Tang Huaqing in Longyuan City, I already know that this matter is a serious matter and should not be taken lightly.
I’ve heard for a long time that Capt. Tie is an expert in solving crimes, and now he’s in Longyuan City, and he’s also a witness to the case..."
The more Tie Tang watched, the faster his breathing became, and his expression became strange.
“Because of the above, this case will be reviewed by you and the Yongyuan Supervisory Authority.
We have a limit of seven days to solve the case, and we must not ruin the reputation of our inspection department. Remember this! Remember! "
who?
Who is targeting me?
Solve the case within seven days?
It's a joke. If you have the ability, come and do it.
Yan Su...you, Pang Feiwen, Li Chengyun and the others are all in the same group, right?
Most of the letter was spent bragging about Tie Tang's past achievements, which seemed like praise, but was actually flattering.
This can be seen from the deadline of seven days to solve the case.
Without this last condition, Tie Tang would still think that the other party admired him.
But with this condition...
If I can't solve the case within seven days, I'm afraid the chief catcher won't be able to continue his job.
Officialdom is like a battlefield. If you show this letter to anyone, they won't be able to find anything wrong with it.
But if something goes wrong, he will be the first scapegoat.
No wonder Zhao Mingzhe said that he was with him. He had read the letter and naturally understood what was going on.
really.
If you are not careless in this world, you can get shot even while lying down.
Tie Tang knew that even if he was not in Longyuan City, the Qingshui County Sheriff would probably find other reasons to embarrass him.
You can't rely on your backers, you can't rely on the water, you have to rely on yourself!
"Inspector Zhao, I wonder if Tie's current suspicion has been cleared?"
If we don’t solve this problem, talking about other issues is useless, and we can’t get involved at all.
Zhao Mingzhe looked at Tie Tang meaningfully and remained silent for a long time.
"What's going on with you? What's wrong with you?" Wang Andao was a little anxious.
Although he didn't know what the letter said, looking at Tie Tang's face, he knew it wasn't a good thing.
After glancing at Wang Andao, Zhao Mingzhe finally spoke.
"Basically no problem!"
"Zhao has read the iron catcher's file, plus his past deeds, and... Wang Lingshi has come forward, and it's not impossible for Zhao to give you this face.
but....."
Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Tie Tang: "Master Zhao, if Mr. Tang died underwater...
Then adults are also suspected of committing the crime!
Even because of your cultivation, your suspicion is much greater than ours. "
Tie Tang's words were not surprising and he would not stop fighting. He didn't want to be controlled by others, so he simply dragged Zhao Mingzhe into the quagmire.
The hall was as quiet as still water for a moment, and the air was filled with strange gunpowder smoke.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
There were footsteps outside the hall.
"Sir, the Inspection Department sent an official document through the Qinglong Zhenxun Formation. It was stamped with the seal of the Chief County Inspector and marked to be forwarded to the Chief Inspector of Yuncheng."
Zhao Mingzhe's expression changed slightly, he looked at Tie Tang, and was about to respond...
The sound of rapid footsteps was heard again outside the hall.
"Sir, a Xing Ming from the Youxian Supervisory Office came and said he wanted to arrest Tie Tang!"
