Rong Fei put away the God-catching Technique in his hand and glanced at the two principals who came to deliver the money with a smile. He probably meant why bother, but he insisted on toasting instead of eating the fine wine, and then shouted to Hou Chunhua.
"Let him go."
Rong Fei had no intention of dragging Fan Li to get to the bottom of it. The Ministry of Revenue was too deeply involved with all the forces in the DPRK and China. If he really continued the investigation, it would not be beneficial to himself or the Jixian Division.
Now that the other party has given in, there is no need to continue to imprison him.
Soon, the disgraced Fan Li and the two principals were released from prison. When passing by Rong Fei, Rong Fei coughed loudly on purpose, which frightened the three of them.
"Go slowly, don't send me away."
Rong Fei said to the three of them in a wicked way.
The people in the household fled, and the people watching the excitement outside the gate also dispersed.
Rong Fei picked up the bag containing the salary and winked at Hou Chunhua and others, gesturing for them to follow.
Returning to the office room, Rong Fei threw the bag containing money to them and asked them to take out their own share of the salary.
After everyone had taken the money, Rong Fei stacked the thirteen resignation letters on the table, then glanced at the police officers and said.
"From now on, Ji Xian Si and you all owe nothing to each other. Go slowly and don't send me away!"
ah?
All the arresters were stunned.
Rong Fei did a series of things that gave them the illusion that Rong Fei was here to retain them. But in the end, they were kicked out immediately after paying the arrears, as if they didn't want them to stay here any longer.
After hesitating for a while, the officers bowed to Rong Fei and then quietly retreated.
When they walked to the first compound they entered, all the arresters couldn't help but look back at the two-story building where they had been working for several years, as well as the immortal stone that reflected the golden light in the sun. For a moment, they felt more or less happy. Reluctant to give up.
But you still have to leave when you should. Now that Ji Xian Si has become the target of public criticism in Kyoto, there will be no good results if he continues to stay here.
As soon as the detectives walked out of the door, they were stopped by a young man with a bruised nose and a swollen face and a bloody gauze wrapped around his left shoulder.
It was Gu Fengxiao who cuffed Murong Qiushui yesterday despite his injuries.
"Where are you going?"
When Gu Fengxiao saw that everyone was not wearing soap clothes and carrying packages in their hands, he had a bad feeling in his heart, so he grabbed Li Jun and asked.
"We submitted our resignations to the new chief catcher, and he has approved it. From now on, we are no longer the detectives of the Jixian Division."
Li Jun explained with a complicated expression, then broke away from Gu Fengxiao's hand and hurried away with the others.
"Everyone...is gone, then who will handle the case?"
Gu Fengxiao muttered to himself as he looked at the people's retreating figures, but then he remembered that the Jixian Division had no cases to handle in the first place. Before, these people just slept, played cards, and drank in the office all day long.
Thinking about it this way, their departure may not be a bad thing for Ji Xiansi.
But with thirteen agents gone at once, there are now only seven civilian officers and one military officer left in the entire Anti-immortal Division. If he really takes the case, he can't handle it alone.
By the way, Li Jun just said that there is a new head catcher.
Thinking of this, Gu Fengxiao quickly turned around and ran into the Yamen to find out the situation from his new boss.
Even if Hou Chunhua and the others don't take the initiative to submit their resignations, Rong Fei will find an opportunity to clear them out of the Ji Xian Division. Yu Qingzhi handed over the Jixian Division to Rong Fei with full authority, and Rong Fei's employment standard was to rather lack than to waste.
As for whether to recruit people in the future, what the recruitment standards will be, and where to recruit people, Rongfei has not yet decided on these. There's no rush anyway, just take it one step at a time.
The household affairs have been resolved, and there is still another target waiting for Rong Fei to deal with.
Standing up from his seat, Rong Fei took off his golden and jade hat and folded it. He touched the jade ring around his waist with his fingers and the golden and jade hat was put in. It was really convenient.
Rong Fei sighed in his heart.
This jade ring was the spiritual storage device that was collected from Murong Qiu Shui yesterday, and Rong Fei shamelessly took it for himself.
According to Yu Qingzhi, the number of storage spiritual weapons is rare, and even for holy places like Qiankun Temple, they are extremely rare treasures. And Jixiansi didn't even have one.
Rong Fei put on the soap clothes of a Ji Xian Division agent and was about to go out to do business when he saw Gu Fengxiao appearing at the door.
"Dare I ask, who is the new head catcher?"
Gu Fengxiao asked as he stood at the door, cupping his fists and cupping his hands.
Gu Fengxiao was already unconscious when Rong Fei revealed his identity yesterday, so he didn't recognize Rong Fei, but Rong Fei recognized him.
Only Gu Fengxiao in the entire Jixian Division could gain Rong Fei's discernment.
"My name is Rong Fei, the new fifth-grade head catcher. Your name is Gu Fengxiao, right? How are you recovering from your injuries?"
Rong Fei stepped forward, patted Gu Fengxiao on the shoulder and asked with a smile.
"Thank you for your concern, sir. The minor injuries are not serious."
Gu Fengxiao replied neither humble nor arrogantly.
"Since nothing happens, follow me over there."
"Sir, where are you going?"
"Working on the case."
When Gu Fengxiao heard this, he was immediately shocked. He was indeed the new official's most important factor in taking office. It had been half a year since he came to the Immortal Bureau, and this was the first time he heard someone mention the word "handling a case".
The two walked out of the gate of Jixian Division. Rong Fei looked at both ends of the long street and suddenly asked Gu Fengxiao.
"Are you familiar with Kyoto?"
"It depends on what aspect you are referring to?"
Gu Fengxiao replied thoughtfully.
"Do you know Marquis Jingyuan's only son?"
"Sir, are you talking about Chang Yanei, one of the four great dandies in Kyoto?"
"tell me the story."
Rong Fei was happy, having Gu Fengxiao saved him from wasting time by asking around.
Gu Fengxiao then told the information he knew.
Marquis of Jingyuan is a hereditary title conferred by Taizu himself when Dayan was founded, and it has been passed down to more than twenty generations now. The current Marquis of Jingyuan is named Chang Gaoyuan. Unlike most of his relatives who have long been corrupted, Chang Gaoyuan perfectly inherited the bravery and good fighting skills of his ancestors. He was highly appreciated by the late emperor and was appointed as the chief military officer of Qingzhou. He led his troops to guard Qingzhou and the demons all year round. Clan war.
His only son, Chang Huai'en, was a typical example of a tiger father and a dog son. He was uneducated, arrogant and domineering. He relied on his father's power to run amok in the city of Kyoto and bullied the city. Together with the sons of three other distinguished relatives, he was called the Four Dandies by the people of Kyoto.
"Does Chang Huaien have any business in Kyoto?"
Rong Fei asked.
"The four major dandies have a hand in almost all the money-making industries in Kyoto, such as the restaurant Zui Xianju on the street next door, the largest brothel in the West City, the Jinfeng Xiaoyu Building, the largest pawnshop in the South City, etc."
"Zui Xian Tower, that's where it is. Lead the way and take you to have a good meal."
Rong Fei had a certain temper of retribution, and how could he endure the fact that someone dared to say that Kyoto merchants were not allowed to do Jixiansi's business?
Walking through the streets and alleys, the two of them soon came to a magnificently renovated four-story restaurant.
Looking up at the three characters Zuixianju on the plaque, Rong Fei smiled coldly and walked towards the door of the restaurant.
On the way to Ji Xian Si, Gu Fengxiao had already heard the news about Chang Huaien's harsh words. He is also a master who is not afraid of causing trouble, otherwise he would not have risked his life to cuff Murong Qiu Shui yesterday.
At this time, seeing Rong Fei look like he was coming to pick a fight, he immediately felt like he was proud to have met his lover. He excitedly held the handle of the sword, ready to draw the sword and kill someone if the situation was not good. .
Both of them were wearing Ji Xian Si's green soap clothes at this time. When they walked to the door of the restaurant, they were not surprised to be stopped by the waiter who was looking for customers in front of the door.
"You two, please stop. I'm really sorry. Our store is full today, so we won't accept you. Please go somewhere else."
The waiter said he was polite, but the eyes he looked at the two of them showed undisguised contempt and ridicule.
Hearing this, Rong Fei glanced inside the restaurant a few times. When he saw that most of the seats on the first floor were empty, he pointed and asked.
"Aren't there a lot of empty seats?"
"Hey, that's a seat reserved by a customer."
The waiter replied impatiently.
"Anyway, there's no one around now, so we two brothers can eat quickly without delaying the guests at the next table."
After saying that, Rong Fei pushed the waiter away and rushed in.
"Hey, you can't understand people, right? It's not that you don't want to entertain..."
Snapped!
Before the waiter could finish shouting at the top of his lungs, Rong Fei suddenly turned around and slapped the second half of his words back.
"Do you believe that if you cut your tongue, you will not be able to speak human words in the future?"
Gu Fengxiao is also a fast person and knows that being a subordinate means doing dirty and tiring work. Without Rong Fei's instructions, he directly put two fingers into the waiter's mouth, pinched his tongue, and threatened with a sinister smile.
The unexpected turn of events made the waiter shocked and frightened. In addition, his tongue was clamped and he could not speak, so he could only nod his head in horror.
"Bitch."
Gu Fengxiao cursed, then took out his fingers and wiped them clean on the waiter's lapel.
Rong Fei was very satisfied with Gu Fengxiao's handling of the matter. This was the kind of momentum that an agent from the Ji Xian Division should have.
The two left the waiter behind and sat down at an empty table in the middle of the first floor.
Just after he sat down and took a few breaths, before his butt could get hot from sitting, Rong Fei suddenly slammed the table with a loud bang, and then yelled loudly.
"Everyone is dead, why aren't you serving tea or ordering food? Maybe you look down on us two brothers and think you can't afford the drinks."
All the diners on the first floor were startled. When they saw the green soap clothes the two were wearing and the Haechi patterns embroidered on their chests, their eyes suddenly lit up with interest in watching a good show.
Obviously, they had also heard Chang Huaien's wild words.
At this time, some of the people present were foreigners visiting relatives and friends or coming to do business. If they didn't know the reason, they asked the locals. Chang Huaien, the son of Marquis Jingyuan, was famous far and wide, but these outsiders had never heard of what kind of yamen Jixiansi was.
But it's no longer important. They only need to know that these two guys are obsessed with ghosts and are trying to beat eggs with stones.
Sure enough, soon I saw the waiter who had been cleaned up by the two men, accompanied by a man dressed as a shopkeeper, and four or five shirtless men with sticks, coming menacingly from the backyard.
"Two stinky beggars in green leather attire dare to come to Zuixianju to cause trouble. Beat me! Beat them hard!"
The middle-aged man who looked like a shopkeeper pointed at Rong and Fei and yelled at the big men around them.
