Chapter 23: Together Again
"Master Zhu, the County Magistrate wants to see you."
A constable rushed in.
Lin Yuan scratched his head, wondering if he had done anything to offend the County Magistrate's interests.
Just as Lin Yuan arrived at the hall where the County Magistrate was located, he heard a clattering sound of things being smashed inside.
Until the voices inside gradually became calm, Lin Yuan knocked on the door.
"Come in!"
From inside came the imposing voice of the county magistrate, who was not angry.
Lin Yuan pushed open the door and walked in, immediately seeing the annoyed county magistrate.
"Sir, what brings you here?"
"I heard you snatched the position of the chief clerk, is that true?"
Lin Yuan nodded: "The previous chief clerk was not competent, so I took over the position."
"So if I have something that I want the chief clerk to do, should I assign it to you now?"
The county magistrate rubbed his freshly shaven beard and said, "I suppose you have also heard about the incident with Langxuan Jade. Now, the Ministry of Justice is unable to solve this matter, so we need to find some additional help to assist the Ministry of Justice in cracking the case."
Lin Yuan nodded: "Is that all?"
That's all.
The county magistrate nodded: "You will be fully responsible for this matter."
Lin Yuan turned and walked out, and Hong Tan had been waiting at the door. Seeing Lin Yuan coming out fine, she quickly approached to take a closer look.
"What are you looking at?"
"You know nothing. The county magistrate is notorious for being irritable. How can you have no problems at all?"
"Have you absorbed the elixir?"
"Hmm, I have now advanced to the later stage of the Profound Master realm. I just had a feeling that I could take on ten opponents!"
林渊想了想，忽然在一张纸上记了什么。
"Is the second effect of the elixir significantly reduced?"
After finishing writing, Lin Yuan went straight to the outside of the county government office.
"Where is Master Zhu going, sir?"
Lin Yuan frowned and walked out.
"Langxuan Jade has been dumped on us by those people."
"Isn't Zhengnan Department so weak?"
While they were talking, the two of them had already reached the street.
"What's special about this case is that it is related to southern Xinjiang."
Upon hearing a commotion coming from one direction, Lin Yuan hurriedly led Hong Tan towards it.
He saw Ye Xing standing in the midst of the crowd, surrounded by the constables from the Southern Bureau.
"Hmph, you're new here and already causing trouble. You dare say it has nothing to do with you?"
As he spoke, the person stood at the front of the crowd, holding a knife and pointing it at Yexing. "And with your appearance, how can we possibly trust you?"
Lin Yuan sneered coldly and walked into the crowd, who unconsciously made way for him.
"So this is the so-called Zhengnan Bureau?"
Lin Yuan's aura burst forth, instantly causing the incompetent constables to kneel on the ground and unable to stand up. He looked at the onlookers around and sternly scolded, "What are you all looking at? Disperse!"
It was the first time people saw Lin Yuan get so angry, and they scattered.
A struggling constable was about to step forward, but his companion signaled him with his eyes to look at the badge on Lin Yuan's waist.
Seeing that sign, the constable from the South Sub-bureau immediately lowered his head.
"Greetings, Head Clerk!"
Lin Yuan nodded, with only the night watcher standing calmly among these people.
"This is the newly appointed judge. I don't think I need to say more, right?"
As he spoke, Lin Yuan pointed at Ye Xing, and the constables of Zhengnan Department respectfully lowered their heads.
"You should listen to the judge, right?"
Linyuan's voice became fierce, and a gust of wind blew.
This was the first time Hongtan had seen Linyuan so terrifying.
"Yes."
"Should the scene be immediately sealed off in this situation?"
Linyuan kicked the hand of the corpse on the ground, and suddenly a bug crawled out from under the hand, trying to run towards Linyuan but was burned to ashes by a fire from Linyuan.
"Yes."
"In the future, respect General Cao a little more. General Cao is not an ordinary person, understand?"
"Lin Yuan withdrew his aura, and the usually arrogant constables stood up, without their usual arrogance."
Lin Yuan changed the topic: "How many times has this group committed suicide?"
A catchpole hurriedly said, "This is the fourth time."
Lin Yuan squatted down and looked at the bodies 8.
Night Walker said slowly, "The knife cuts at an extremely unnatural angle. Looking at the bugs just now, it seems that the bugs are controlling these people, and later they were killed to silence them, and then the bugs controlled these people to commit suicide."
Saying that, in order to prove his point, Yexing flipped over these corpses with his own knife, displaying the blade marks on these bodies: "The knife is held in the right hand, but the blade cuts from right to left. This is not at all the way an ordinary person holds a knife, and it is impossible to exert force like this."
Lin Yuan nodded: "I have never seen this technique before."
"Take these bodies back to the yamen."
Lin Yuan ordered, "Be careful not to touch any bugs."
The few catchers from the Zhongnan Division were quite professional and quickly moved the bodies onto the specialized corpse transport vehicle.
Lin Yuan looked at Ye Xing and sneered, "I never expected even renowned assassin Ye Xing would have such a pathetic moment."
"I never expected even renowned assassin Hong Mian would possess such professional analysis of murder techniques."
Lin Yuan patted the shoulder of Nocturnal Walker solemnly, "We are no longer killers from Shadow City, but our actions still represent Shadow City. This place is not Shadow City, and we cannot kill at will."
The mouth under the night's black cloth curled and laughed, "You are indeed the fastest killer, noticing such tiny movements."
Because the night walker was born unable to cultivate, their actions were very fast, almost instantly drawing out a knife to kill and quickly retracting it.
Few people can see his movements clearly. When those people just wrongly accused him, he saw a figure in the corner and wanted to rush up instantly, but he found out it was Lin Yuan. That's why later, when he flipped open the body, there was a knife in his hand.
Lin Yuan sat in the yard watching several coroners carefully examine the body. By the side, Hong Tan held a transparent box containing a bug, no matter how she shook the box, the bug kept hitting the wall in one direction.
“这到底是什么啊？”
红檀摇了摇盒子。
林渊目不转睛的看着仵作正细心的解剖着尸体：“苗疆的子母蛊，是一种麻烦的东西，不论相隔多远，都能感知到母蛊，并且听母蛊的话。”
"Is this thing really that amazing?"
Red Tan obviously didn't believe it.
Lin Yuan shook his head: "The things from the Miao region are naturally beyond our understanding."
"Then... why don't we find someone from the Miao region?"
“……”
If there are people like this in the yamen, what else is there to say?
Lin Yuan glanced at her.
"I know an old man from the Miao region, he might know something."
"You know... what? You know people from the Miao region? Take me there!" Lin Yuan propped his head up and as soon as he heard that she knew people from the Miao region, he quickly grabbed Hong Tan's shoulder, afraid that she would run away.
