Chapter 2246 2248 [Temporary head arrest]
Xiang Nan saw Xing Tutou's complacent look, but felt faintly worried for him.
You must know that Lei Laowu came from a family of tomb robbers, and no family in the world is easy to mess with.
On the one hand, since it is a family, it must have a unique inheritance. Lei Laowu's bone shrinking skills and ground movement skills are unique;
On the one hand, since it is an aristocratic family, its influence must not be small. If you provoke one and attract a litter, it will definitely be annoying.
Xing Tutou is not a member of the Jianghu. He doesn't know the benefits and harms, and he still makes a big publicity. Sooner or later, he will be unlucky.
…
The robbery of the Taipingshan tomb was reported by the Lou Zhi County, which soon aroused the wrath of the court.
Seeing a bold lunatic digging the tomb of King Xin, Emperor Yongli was furious. Afterwards, Liu Shilang of the Ministry of War went out of Beijing to deal with the case with eighty Jin Yiwei.
The criminal Lei Laowu was interrogated. Because there were all the physical evidence and he was arrested, he had no way to deny it.
Afterwards, the tomb of King Xin was rebuilt and the hole was backfilled. Lei Laowu will also be escorted to Beijing to wait for the emperor's instructions.
"I will go to Beijing with Liu Shilang tomorrow." Catcher Xing said proudly.
"Really? Why?" Guo Furong asked in confusion.
"Of course I accepted the award." Xing Tutou smiled, "I caught the tomb robber from King Xin's tomb and maintained the dignity of the royal family. What a credit. I heard from Liu Shilang that I might even see him. Where is the emperor?"
"Wow, really?" Hearing what he said, Lu Xiucai was very envious.
"Old Xing, you are really good." Tong Xiangyu said with a smile, "Come on, Zhantang, bring the best daughter Hong to Lao Xing. Today's drink is all right."
"Hahahaha~" Lao Xing also laughed triumphantly.
"By the way, Lao Xing, you are gone, what about the security of Qixia Town?" Bai Zhantang asked curiously after carrying the wine.
"Oh, by the way, I almost forgot, Dazui, Lou Zhi County invites you to come over." Lao Xing suddenly realized, and hurriedly said to Xiang Nan.
Xiang Nan was taken aback for a moment, then nodded.
…
When he came to Louzhi County’s home, Xiang Nan saluted, then sat down, “I don’t know why uncle asked me to come here?”
"Nephew, Tomorrow Chief Inspector Xing will return to Beijing with Liu Shilang to give the award, and there is only one policeman left in Qixia Town, Yan Xiaoliu. However, he has only been a policeman for a few days, and I am worried that he is not experienced enough. How about this?" How about you coming back to temporarily arrest the head?" Lou Zhixian asked.
Xiang Nan thought for a moment, and finally nodded, "Okay, thank you uncle for trusting me. For the sake of the people of Qixia Town to live and work in peace and contentment, then I will temporarily take over the position of head catcher."
Being a headhunter is not a bad thing for him.
On the one hand, the imperial court is the biggest force in "Wulin Biography". Although the head catcher is only a small official, he has great power in his hands. Even a frenzied killer like Ji Wuli dare not kill the catcher quickly Zhu Wushuang. So wearing an official uniform can deter many Xiaoxiao.
On the one hand, the imperial court is also the most well-informed force. Even low-level police officers such as Xing Tutou and Yan Xiaoliu can know the latest news in the world in a timely manner. But in the arena, information is money, and information is life.
On the one hand, the home of many masters in "Wulin Biography" is the prison cell, such as Ji Wubing, Gongsun Oolong, Pinggu Yidianhong and so on.
After Xiang Nan became a head catcher, he could freely enter and exit the cell, and perhaps he could learn a few tricks from these masters.
Kill three birds with one stone, why not do it!
…
Xiang Nan then took the captor's official uniform and long knife, and went back to ask Tong Xiangyu for leave.
"What, are you going back to be a catcher again?" Tong Xiangyu asked in surprise.
The rest of the inn was also surprised.
First of all, the pay for the policemen in Qixia Town is not high, the monthly salary is only two renminbi, and it does not include food and lodging, making them poor haha. In comparison, Xiang Nan worked as a chef at Tongfu Inn, and his monthly salary was three taels, which was more than ten times worse;
Secondly, Xiang Nan turned from a headhunter to a chef, but he didn't expect to be a headhunter again now. It's really a turn of events.
"It's just a temporary replacement. When Lao Xing comes back from the capital, I will automatically resign." Xiang Nan said with a smile.
But having said that, it is still unknown whether Lao Xing will come back, whether Lou Zhi County will release him, and whether Xiang Nan will resign.
You must know that the surrounding area of Qixia Town is chaotic enough, there are bandits, river robbers, and tomb robbers, not to mention going to the capital, thousands of miles along the way, there must be more dangers along the way.
Lao Xing went to the capital this time with Liu Shilang, and was protected by 80 royal guards, so his personal safety was naturally guaranteed. But when he came back, there was no Jin Yiwei escorting him.
At that time, it will not be easy for him to walk back safely. In the play, he once went to the capital, and was robbed before he left Xiaotangshan, and was forced to join the beggar gang as a beggar.
Furthermore, Xiang Nan is knowledgeable, literate, strong in martial arts, and has such a close relationship with Lou Zhi County. It is definitely more suitable for him to be the head arrester than Lao Xing. Therefore, Xiang Nan believed that even if Lao Xing came back to Qixia Town, it would be hard to say whether Lou Zhi County would allow him to be reinstated.
"It's okay. With you as the head catcher, you are better than Lao Xing." Bai Zhantang laughed, "With your martial arts skills, there are really not many people who dare to commit crimes in Qixia Town."
"If you dare, you must be a master. Lao Bai, when the time comes, please help my brother." Xiang Nan laughed.
"Okay." Bai Zhantang agreed.
…
Turning around, Liu Shilang formally escorted Lei Laowu on the road.
Xing Tutou also bid farewell to Xiang Nan and Xiao Liu.
"Big mouth, I will leave my apprentice to you for the time being." Before leaving, Catcher Xing said, "This kid is a stickler, and he doesn't know how to do anything. Don't let him mess around. The most important thing The thing is, don't let him drink."
Xiang Nan nodded and said, "Don't worry, I will take care of him."
He doesn't feel good about Yan Xiaoliu.
Because Yan Xiaoliu was suspected of betraying Lao Xing's superior position. Only the people from Tongfu Inn, Xiaomi and him knew about Lao Xing joining the beggar gang. The people at Tongfu Inn naturally wouldn't leak the secrets, and neither would Xiaomi. Naturally, only Yan Xiaoliu complained to Louzhi County, which led to Lao Xing being kicked out.
Moreover, after Yan Xiaoliu came to power, he was arrogant and put on airs, and he also declared that "I have only heard of Yan Tutou, but I have never heard of Xing Tutou".
Not to mention that many times, in order to make meritorious service, he deliberately turned small cases into big ones. He only cares about his own promotion, disregards the loyalty of his friends, is selfish and double-decker.
But Yan Xiaoliu is not completely useless. As a catcher, he still has responsibility, planning, and level.
For example, when I heard that Pinggu Yidianhong was coming to rob the prison, I immediately called in the police officers from the surrounding towns, all equipped with long weapons and crossbows; Dead cheating corpse, Xiao Liu also blocked the front with a knife...
Although he was not good at martial arts, he could only yell "Help me take care of Uncle Qi", and then he was knocked down, but he basically never counseled.
Unlike Lao Xing, when the three major families sent killers, as a head catcher, he didn't even dare to show his face.
So Xiao Liu is not good to be a friend, but he is still qualified to be a catcher.
