After dinner, Su Lin said goodbye to his parents and returned to his courtyard. Entering the bedroom, she said to Liuliu Guihua, "Sisters, you are tired after watching me all day. You should all go to bed early. I also need to go to bed early. I will be on duty tomorrow."
Liuliu Guihua replied, "Okay, young master, if you need anything, just call us."
"Okay, you guys go and have a rest."
After sending away the two maids, Su Lin couldn't wait to continue practicing according to the techniques in the Heart Sutra. Although I don't expect to become a master, at least I need to have a strong body and not be like the previous master.
After practicing for about an hour, I broke out in a stinky sweat. I wiped it with water and went to bed to rest.
Early the next morning, Su Lin vaguely heard someone shouting, "Master, get up, it's time for you to go to the Yamen."
Su Lin was confused for a while, "What yamen are you going to? I don't have work today. I want to sleep until I wake up naturally." Then he felt something was wrong. It turned out that he didn't have a clear understanding of the matter of time travel. After struggling for a while, he got up and shouted to the door, "Okay, come in."
The person outside the door came in, and it turned out to be Osmanthus fragrans. She asked with a smile, "How did you sleep, Master?"
"If you don't have to get up early, you can sleep better. After time travel, you have to get up early to go to work." Su Lin complained in his heart, but said, "Get some rest."
Osmanthus fragrans replied, "It's enough to have a rest. Master, hurry up and wash up and have breakfast. It's too late for the prince to be angry again." So Su Lin washed up and got dressed under Guihua's service and went to the hall.
There were only Su Xiuda, Yue Lianxing and Zhang Ying in the hall. Su Xiuda also doted on his daughter and always told her what time she slept. The three of them are martial arts practitioners and are used to getting up early.
The martial arts realms in Central Continent are respectively entry level martial artist, acquired martial artist, innate martial artist, martial saint and martial god. Each realm is divided into nine levels. However, the martial saint and martial god have not appeared for a long time. In Sulin's memory, they are only Exists in legends, so innate warriors are the top combat power in this world. There are also other systems such as the Gu Master who uses Gu, and those who practice Taoism such as the old Taoist who gave him elixir books, as well as Buddhism, and other weird systems. But Zhongzhou Continent believes that only warriors are orthodox, and others are sideways and have no place in the stage.
Su Xiuda himself is in the ninth level of the acquired realm, but because of the years of fighting, he has a strong evil spirit. He can still compete against the innate masters. Of course, he is a person in the first two levels of the innate realm, and Su Xiuda's status will not be the same. If he takes action himself, his subordinates will solve it for him if there is any problem. Yue Lianxing and Zhang Ying are both innate warriors. Yue Lianxing is at the fifth level of innate martial arts, and Zhang Ying is at the third level of innate warriors. As for Su Lin, a weakling, he had no talent for martial arts since he was born, and because of his excessive drinking and drinking, his body was wasted.
This makes Su Lin very unhappy now. Others who time travel are either geniuses or have special talents, but my time travel has to start by exercising to stop being Yang Wei. It is really infuriating that people are more popular than others.
Su Xiuda saw Su Lin walking in and said, "I know you said you worked hard yesterday just to coax me. Look at what time it is now. Isn't it too late for you to go to the Yamen? Mud can't hold up a wall." Su Xiuda Da was getting angrier as he talked. Before Yue Lianxing could say anything, Zhang Ying hurriedly smoothed things over, "It doesn't take a day or two to work hard. Take your time. Lin'er, come and have dinner." Su Xiuda snorted twice and stopped talking.
Su Lin said hello to his parents, finished his breakfast, stood up and said goodbye and left the house. Ma San had already driven the carriage to the door of the house. When he saw Su Lin coming out, he greeted him, "Good morning, young master."
Su Lin waved his hand and got into the carriage, "Let's go to the Yamen. Remember to be careful and don't startle pedestrians."
Ma San was still amazed at his young master's change. "Okay, young master, sit down, we are setting off."
As the carriage moved forward, about half an hour later, the carriage stopped at the gate of a government office. "Master, we are here."
Su Lin got out of the car and took a look, frowning and asked, "Ma San, why are there only sedans and horses here and no other carriages?"
"Master, didn't you say that? It's too crowded to sit in a sedan chair and too tiring to ride a horse. Only a carriage can show your identity. We are the only ones who can do it." Ma San replied cheerfully.
Su Lin thought this was too coquettish. "Ma San, prepare horses for me tomorrow. This carriage is too eye-catching."
The young master must have changed too quickly, Ma San thought, "Okay, young master."
Su Lin raised his legs and walked to the Yamen. When the officer at the door saw him, he nodded and bowed and said hello, "Hello, Mr. Su." Su Lin casually replied, "Hello." This sentence shocked several officers. "This What happened to the eldest young master today that he actually accepted our words and the sun came out in the west? "
Su Lin was walking to his office. People kept saying hello to him along the way, and he responded to them one by one. His jaw dropped. Originally, Su Lin's official position did not allow him to have his own room, but his boss, Zuo Shilang of the Criminal Department, arranged a separate official room for him in order to please him, or in other words, his father.
When he arrived at his office, he was already greeted by two people, one fat and one thin, wearing official uniforms. These two people are the officials working under Su Lin. The fat one is named Li Chen and the thin one is named Zhu Guangtian. Both of them were the descendants of the Thousand Captains adopted by Su Xiuda, so they were arranged to follow Su Lin.
The two people walked forward and said hello to Su Lin with a smile, "Young Master Lin came so early today." Su Lin was amused. The looks and smiles of these two people were clearly the same kind of people as Su Lin. They were complete dandies. , as expected, it is not that one family does not enter the same house.
Su Lin pretended to be dignified and said, "I am a model of love and dedication to my job. When it comes to late, please don't make false accusations against me."
Li Chen and Zhu Guangtian nodded repeatedly, "Yes, our Young Master Lin is the most punctual. He can be said to be the most punctual person in our Criminal Department Yamen. We should all learn from Young Master Lin."
Although Su Lin knew that these were words of flattery between the two of them, who doesn't like others to compliment themselves? He smiled and said, "Come on, be serious. Is there any official business that I need to handle today?"
Li Chen replied, "With our Young Master Lin here, there will be no case. Those thieves have been scared to shit when they heard the reputation of our Young Master Lin. How can they dare to commit crimes? Guangtian, don't you think so?" "Li Chen You're right, our Young Master Lin is famous throughout the capital." Zhu Guangtian answered.
Su Lin was a little dumbfounded when he heard this. This eldest brother had worked like this before, and his reputation as a playboy really lived up to his reputation. In fact, this is a bit wrong. In the past, Su Lin came to the Yamen out of necessity. If he was lazy at home, his father Su Xiuda would definitely break his legs. So in the past, Su Lin usually went to the Yamen in the morning to sit down, then took Ma San, Li Chen and the others out to drink, and didn't go home until the end of working hours in the afternoon. If you were on duty at night, you wouldn't stay in the yamen, you would just spend the night in a brothel. No one dared to provoke him anyway, and no one would check whether he was in the Yamen without opening their eyes.
But Su Lin is different now. Although he still wants to be a playboy, he always feels that he should work hard when he goes to work. He can play whatever he wants after get off work, and he should be a playboy who contributes to society. "Don't fight with me, haha. I am asking you seriously. If you have any cases or official business, bring it to me for me to see." Su Lin shouted, startling Li Chen and the other two.
Seeing that Su Lin seemed serious, Zhu Guangtian replied, "Mr. Su, there really is no case. As for other people's duties, you have always ignored them."
Upon hearing this, Su Lin realized that he had nothing to do, so he continued to ask, "Then why am I sitting here all day?"
Li Chen hurriedly said, "How about we go to a restaurant for a drink?"
"No, no, I don't want to drink today, and I don't want to drink for the next seven days." In fact, Su Lin was afraid that drinking would affect the properties of the elixir, so he held back.
But there is no case or anything else to do, and there is no mobile phone or computer for him to entertain himself now, so he can't just sit and stare all the time. Su Lin's mind turned around and he said to Li Chen, "Go find some paper with opaque writing on it, cut it into fifty-four pieces of the same size and bring them to me." Su Lin was just playing cards to kill time. .
Li Chen wondered, "Why does Mr. Lin want to be so tempted?"
"Go if you are told, there is so much nonsense." Li Chen had no choice but to go out with a lot of questions after hearing this.
After a while, Li Chen brought what Su Lin asked for. Su Lin took it and started writing and drawing on it. After the painting was finished, he called Li Chen and Zhu Guangtian over and said to them, "I will teach you a new game." Then he told them what the cards represented and what they meant, and also explained the rules of Landlords. one time. The two of them were not stupid. They memorized it after playing it twice, and then the three of them started fighting the landlord in front of Su Lin's public case. But these two people just started playing, and their skills were really not good. Su Lin was good at figuring out other people's thoughts, so he naturally killed everyone and won a lot of money from them. If it weren't for lunch time, Li Chen and Zhu Guangtian would have gone home naked today.
After lunch, Su Lin wanted to ask them to continue playing. But these two people were already frightened by Su Lin Ying, and said that they would wait until they got home to study carefully before competing with Su Lin.
Su Lin had no choice but to give up, but how to spend this afternoon? He thought for a while and said, "Go and bring me some files on recent cases in the capital. I'll take a look."
Li Chen and the others were originally studying how to win Landlords. When they heard this, they glanced at Su Lin in confusion, "Why did Mr. Lin think of looking at these things?"
"I'm bored, just passing the time."
Hearing this, Li Chen and the others turned around and went out to the warehouse where the files were stored. After talking to the person in charge, they took out a pile of notebooks and returned and handed them to Su Lin.
Su Lin picked up the book and started to look through it. Most of them were cases of theft, burglary, etc. These cases were not easy to solve. The thieves would always shoot and change places, which made it much more difficult to catch people.
Su Lin was not interested in this kind of case. He just looked at it and put it down. When he picked up a dossier titled "Case of Extermination of Family in the West of the City", he suddenly became interested.
The capital of Daqing is roughly divided into five areas. The center is the imperial city. The east of the city is where the princes, nobles and court ministers live. The west of the city is where the rich families of the capital gather. The south of the city is where ordinary people live. The north of the city is more complicated. Most of the brothels, casinos, and pubs are open here. The brothel that Su Lin often goes to, Wanhualou, is also in the north of the city. It is a mixture of three religions and nine schools. The Fang family mentioned in the Fang family extermination case is located in the west of the city and is considered a wealthy family in the capital.
The owner surnamed Fang is not a bad person either. He runs several casinos in the north of the city and has many thugs under his command. He can run around in the capital except those who dare not mess with the princes and nobles. He is considered a tyrant in the capital.
It was such a person who was broken into the house at the end of last month. In addition to the slaves, all the twelve members of the family were killed, including the thugs who were guarding the house.
This case caused a lot of discussion in the capital. People said that this was a chivalrous and righteous hero who was passing through the capital. He couldn't stand the Fang family's tyranny, so he took action to eliminate harm for the people.
Su Lin fell into deep thought after reading the dossier. He was different from what the people outside thought.
The file said that the 12 members of the Fang family brought about 40 thugs to guard the home, and they were all cut off with a sword. No one could warn them in advance. There are no slaves who have not been harmed and no one has ever seen what the killer looks like.
Moreover, after the Fang family was wiped out, the casino it belonged to was quickly taken over without causing any trouble, which shows that there are forces with greater power behind the Fang family. And this force did not react at all when it knew that the person it was supporting was exterminated. There were only two possibilities.
First, the forces that destroyed the entire Fang family were not small. The forces behind the Fang family did not want to break up with them, so they had to swallow their anger. The other is that the person who destroyed the entire Fang family is a peerless master. The forces behind the Fang family felt that it was not worth offending such a master for the sake of a mere Fang family, so they gave up revenge. As for the heroes who performed chivalry and righteousness in folklore, Su Lin thought that was nonsense. How could a hero be so free to kill more than forty people?
Thinking of this, Su Lin pulled up a smile and said, "Interesting, interesting."
At this time, Li Chen's voice sounded, "Young Master Lin, you are off duty. Let's go to dinner together?"
Su Lin raised his head and looked outside the door. It was already evening. "I'm not going, I'll go home to eat and rest early. I have to be on duty tomorrow." After saying that, he got up and left the government office, got in the car and went home.
