Chapter 219 I Became the Leader of Group 4
The main hall of the Weiwu Division is where Zheng Yuanqiu usually works.
The long-serving servant led Shen Qing in one after the other.
Shen Qing stepped into the back hall of the Weiwu Division, and the heavy wooden door slowly closed behind him.
The long-serving servant stepped forward and said, "Shen Chashi, please come in. The master has been waiting in the inner room for a long time."
"Thank you." Shen Qing bowed.
He adjusted his clothes and strode towards the quiet room.
As soon as he entered the quiet room in the main hall, Shen Qing saw Zheng Yuanqiu's calm and majestic face.
At this time, he was sitting in front of the desk, his eyes were like torches, his brows were tightly furrowed, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
Shen Qing stepped forward and said in a steady and powerful voice: "General, Shen Qing, the sixth group's officer, is here on orders."
Zheng Yuanqiu raised his head slightly, his eyes stayed on Shen Qing for a moment and said: "Shen Qing, do you know why I urgently summoned you here?"
Shen Qing looked directly at Zheng Yuanqiu, without any retreat: "I am stupid, but I guess it may be related to the death of Xi Shaoqin, the officer."
"Well, you are still a little smart." Zheng Yuanqiu nodded gently, with a bit more seriousness in his tone: "Xi Chasi is a member of our Weiwu Division after all, and he is a formal official of the court. The Bingmasi has taken over this matter."
"But I heard that Xi Chasi's death was related to demons. In this case, we can't stay out of it. We still need to get to the bottom of this matter. Killing demons is the responsibility of our Weiwu Division."
"You are usually decisive and capable. I plan to hand over this important task to you. Do you want the position of the fourth group's officer?"
Let me be the head of the fourth group?
Shen Qing's heart was immediately stirred when he heard this.
His first reaction was not to feel lucky, but to feel that there was something fishy in this matter.
Since the loss of all the people in his sixth group, Zheng Yuanqiu has not replenished the establishment until now, and has always let him be a "single-riding officer".
Now, as luck would have it, Xi Shaoqin of the fourth group died, and a position of an officer was vacant, so he was asked to fill the vacancy.
In this way, the establishment of the sixth group is equivalent to being taken away, right?
Shen Qing remembered that the chief officer in front of him was a member of the Huangtian Sect. Those Weiwusi people who went to Taiping County a few months ago were betrayed and killed by him.
Now the establishment has been reduced again, and it always feels that Zheng Yuanqiu is intentionally or unintentionally reducing the power of the Weiwusi, making it a weak government office.
You must know that the newly established Weiwusi, in addition to slaying demons and monsters, is also responsible for searching and eliminating traitors like the Huangtian Sect. Is the Huangtian Sect making new moves?
This possibility cannot be ruled out.
Besides, the demon cat demon has been hiding in the inner city for some time. Xi Shaoqin led the four groups to investigate for so long, but there was no clue at all. It was an extremely difficult thing.
He had no confidence that he could find out the matter by himself.
This was clearly a mess, and whoever took it would be unlucky.
For a moment, Shen Qing thought of a lot, but his face was still as calm as water, without any expression.
After a while, Shen Qing bent down and clasped his fists, looking at the ground, and said neither humbly nor arrogantly: "My lord, I think I am not capable enough, I am afraid I can't handle this task, I hope you can choose someone else."
"I think Dong Jing, the first team's Dong Chasi, and Xie Zongyong, the second team's Xie Chasi, are both very capable and should be able to take on this..."
As Shen Qing was talking, he felt a shadow in front of him. He stopped talking and looked up.
I saw Zheng Yuanqiu had stood up from the chair and walked in front of him without knowing when.
"Unwilling to accept?" Zheng Yuanqiu's eyes were like a cold pond, deep and cold. These four words squeezed out from between his teeth, with a hint of questioning.
Shen Qing looked up with an unusually firm gaze, and the Qi Sea in his body could not help but roll up. The Six Whale Swallowing Technique automatically operated, urging a large amount of Qi. He took a deep breath and continued: "Sir Zheng, it's not that I intentionally refused, but I am indeed limited in my ability..."
Before he finished speaking, there seemed to be a subtle fluctuation in the air.
A pressure surged out from Zheng Yuanqiu's body and enveloped Shen Qing.
Shen Qing felt as if his whole body was trapped in a quagmire, and even his breathing became heavy.
"You'd better think about it before answering me." Zheng Yuanqiu said with a smile.
Shen Qing narrowed his eyes and couldn't help but want to expose his old secrets.
But seeing that Zheng Yuanqiu hadn't used all his strength yet, after comprehensive consideration, he lowered his head and said: "Since the lord trusts me, I should do my best to find out the truth."
The pressure around him suddenly disappeared.
Shen Qing felt relieved all of a sudden.
Zheng Yuanqiu patted Shen Qing's shoulder with a smile, and said earnestly: "Okay, I didn't make a mistake. From now on, you will be the officer of the fourth group of my Weiwu Division, commanding all the officers under the fourth group, and responsible for thoroughly investigating the demons related to Xi Shaoqin."
Shen Qing bowed expressionlessly and accepted the order.
"Now the rumors about the cat demon are getting more and more intense. You have one month to investigate this demon. Either kill it on the spot or arrest it. Remember, no matter who is involved, you must investigate it to the end and never tolerate it. If you can't do it, you should resign and get out of here!"
Shen Qing opened his mouth, bowed silently, and retreated.
As soon as he walked out of the main hall, Shen Qing, who had always been calm, couldn't help but show a trace of anger on his face.
Okay, okay, you think I have no background and am easy to bully, right?
Shen Qing took out the superstition that Zheng Yuanqiu gave to Huang Tianjiao from his arms, and his face was fierce.
I hope you won't blame me when the time comes.
He hid the letter close to his body and put away these thoughts.
……
In the courtyard of the Weiwu Division, Shen Qing sat on the main seat, and the original four groups of officers were summoned.
They had received the order and knew that the young man in front of them was their next officer and would work under him in the future.
Shen Qing looked at these people. Most of them had a bit of indifference on their faces, and there was more or less contempt in their eyes. They had expected it in their hearts.
Although these people were not from the Thirteenth Lines, they all had some foundation. They were not from the bottom of society, so they would naturally not be kind to him, a foreigner.
Shen Qing didn't care about it, and he didn't count on these people.
"The chief officer has ordered us to find out the demon behind the murder of Xi Chasi within one month. If we can't find it, we will all be dismissed. From now on, you all have to be alert and try your best to find it for me. Do you hear it clearly?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone's face was moved, and they responded sparsely.
"Haven't you eaten yet?" Shen Qing shouted, his whole body surging with true energy, and a fierce momentum emanated from him.
The four groups of officers in the room were shocked when they saw this.
This cultivation is the Qi Sea Realm!!!
They suddenly found that Shen Qing seemed to be a little different from the officers in their impression.
Some officers who reacted quickly immediately changed their attitude and responded repeatedly: "I heard it clearly!"
"I understand, why don't you check it out for me quickly." Shen Qing said with a sharp look in his eyes.
Everyone looked at each other and went out one after another to investigate the monsters in the city.
