Is this okay?
Lu Jing was shocked, but after thinking about it, Kui and Wen Xiaochuan were really a perfect match.
One is used to handling cases alone, and the other doesn't want to handle cases at all. When they work together, they each get what they need.
So this time Lu Jing didn't hesitate anymore and said to Supervisor Huang, "I choose Xia Huai as my partner, by the way... What if there are other supervisors who choose Xia Huai?"
Lu Jing thought of another question.
As Xia Huai has the best secret power talent among this new batch of newcomers, it is estimated that there will be no shortage of supervisors who are interested in her.
"I will tell the other supervisors to let them re-select someone." Supervisor Huang said, "Supervisor Si Tian has already considered this situation. If more than two supervisors choose an academy disciple at the same time, then the low-level supervisor will The choice is the main thing.”
After Lu Jing thought for a while, he understood what Si Tianjian meant by this move.
Because the general strength of low-level supervisors is relatively weak, if they are paired with an academy disciple of average strength as a partner, then the danger to both parties will undoubtedly increase.
Therefore, Si Tianjian let the low-level supervisors pick first and transfer the stronger disciples away. The remaining weak ones would be led by mid-level and high-level supervisors, so that the combined strength would be more even.
This selection mechanism is undoubtedly the most beneficial to Lu Jing.
As a newcomer who had just been awarded the title of supervisor not long ago, Si Tianjian was not ranked higher than him in the selection list of supervisors.
In other words, Xia Huai can only partner with him.
After Lu Jing finished selecting the person, he immediately looked in the direction of Xia Huai.
As a result, the girl's face changed slightly.
"I...I have something to say!"
"What words?" Su Tixue asked.
"Can you give me someone else?" Xia Huai bit her lip and asked.
"Reason?" Huang Jianyuan's eyes were sharp.
"I...I don't want Miss Yan and Miss Wen to misunderstand."
"It doesn't matter to me." Wen Xiaochuan interrupted, looking very generous.
Yan Yun, on the other hand, paid no attention to what was going on here and turned around.
Huang Supervisor's expression also became serious, "Our partners are investigating the case together. I don't care what your private relationship is. It's best to put it aside for now."
The second half of his sentence was addressed to Lu Jing.
Obviously, he had seen through Lu Jing's little thoughts.
Xia Huai wanted to say something else, but Su Tixue had already made up his mind, "That's it. Your spells are excellent, and Lu Jing's martial arts are superb. You two are indeed a good partner. If you really want to change partners, wait until they become official Let’s talk about it after the supervision, and then you can make your own choice.”
Xia Huai could not refute Su Tixue and could only nod in agreement.
And after a while, messengers flew in one after another, landing in the open space in front of the school building, looking for their own goals, but some were happy and some were sad.
Some people who were selected by high-level supervisors, especially the famous high-level inspections in Sitian Prison, breathed a sigh of relief and looked gearing up, while those who were partnered with low-level supervisors felt somewhat uneasy.
However, people who are confident in their own strength are not so concerned about who their partners are.
For example, Yan Yun, her partner is a relatively young first-level supervisor, and the latter's reason for choosing Yan Yun is also very simple. Her own skills are relatively average, and having Yan Yun as her partner can make up for her shortcomings.
Seeing that everyone has contacted their partners.
Lu Jing straightened his clothes and walked towards Xia Huai.
However, when the girl saw Lu Jing walking towards her, she couldn't help but take a few steps back.
Seeing the mist rising in the eyes opposite him, Lu Jing had to stop.
The two of them just stood three feet apart, looking at each other.
Not a word was said.
Fortunately, everyone else was busy getting familiar with their partners at the moment, so no one noticed the awkward atmosphere here for the time being.
In the end, Lu Jing coughed lightly and said, "How about... let's take a look at the case first?"
He wisely did not mention what happened in the No. 1 Scholar's Building before, nor did he explain immediately. He just used business to strike up a conversation with the girl first.
Sure enough, Xia Huai nodded when he heard this, "Where is the case?"
"this……"
Lu Jing didn't know where the case was, but fortunately the next moment a messenger from Si Tianjian landed in front of him, bringing him a letter.
Lu Jing took action and untied the letter from the courier's leg.
Zhang Zhang glanced twice, then was startled, then raised his head and said to Xia Huai, "How are you packing your things? When can you hit the road?"
"I've already packed everything up in the early morning. Why, is this case urgent?"
Lu Ding nodded and said, "Why don't you go get your package and salute first, and we'll talk about it on the way."
"good."
After a cup of tea, Xia Huai had already picked up the package and brought his sword. He met Lu Jing in front of the [well] and asked, "Where are we going?"
"Wujiang City."
Xia Huai couldn't help but be startled when he heard these three words, and then he seemed to think of something, and the mist that had finally gone down filled his eyes again.
But she quickly lowered her head, not wanting Lu Jing to see what she looked like at this moment, "Then let's get on the road."
Lu Jing also didn't expect that this case would happen in Wujiang City.
Perhaps it was because Si Tianjian knew that he was familiar with Wu Jiangcheng that he assigned this case to him.
Speaking of which, the first time he and Xia Huai met was also at the edge of Wujiang City.
At that time, Lu Jing was still wondering what happened to his Dantian. Unexpectedly, when he raised his face, he saw a heroine falling from the sky.
Obviously it was just over three years ago, but for some reason it seems like a long time ago when I recall it.
When the two came out of the paper shop, it happened to be raining lightly, so Lu Jing picked up a paper umbrella from the corner and hit the two on their heads.
Then he told Xia Huai about this case.
"Two months ago, a Shishi girl fell from the building in Jinlou and died. Half a month later, a girl from Guanhualou also jumped from the building. About forty days ago, the third victim appeared. Yes, she is also a Lehu girl, and suffered the same casualties from falling from a building.
"In the past month, the number of women falling from brothels has further increased, and now it has reached... fifteen."
When Xia Huai heard that the case happened in the land of fireworks, his face turned red at first, and his heart sank when he heard that fifteen people had died.
He didn't even care about the two of them holding an umbrella together, and asked hurriedly, "When did the last death happen?"
"Last night," Lu Jingdao, "Judging from the time when these fifteen women were killed, no matter who the murderer was, they were becoming more and more violent, and the interval between the victims was getting shorter and shorter. , judging from this point, I’m afraid there will be the sixteenth victim tonight.”
Hearing this, Xia Huai also understood why Lu Jing said before that time was tight.
she asked after gathering herself. "How are you going to check?"
"First, let's go to the brothel where the victims were."
