The people locked up in the prison were all wearing black metal shackles on their necks, hands, and feet. The shackles were connected by black chains, and they were all squeezed into a cell that was more than ten square meters in size. They looked at the group of people walking into the prison with wooden, fawning, or fearful expressions.
The metal shackles on their bodies not only restrained their godly power, but also their bodies. Once they put on the shackles, anyone below the Seven Sun Realm would be no different from a mortal. It would be even more difficult for them to move around with things weighing a few kilograms on their bodies.
Two keys were needed to open the shackles. One key was in the hands of the Inner Guardian Team, and the other key could only be obtained after Xia Pingan signed it.
Qi Dafeng walked around the prison while explaining the situation to Xia Pingan.
"My Lord … My Lord, I'm innocent. Please let me out. I won't dare to do it again. I really didn't do anything …" A pleading voice came from a nearby cell. A bearded man with a sallow face dragged his shackles to the side of the cell. He stretched out his hand pitifully and begged loudly.
"What crime did this person commit?" Xia Pingan glanced at the man and asked.
"This person is a suspect. A month ago, a woman was raped in her home at night. After investigation, it was discovered that it was done by a summoner. The summoner who committed the crime used a spell to imprison the women and then started the crime. The police couldn't handle the case, and couldn't catch the perpetrator, so it was handed over to the Inspection Department. After the Inspection Department received the case, they arranged for a few teams to patrol the area. In the end, a second team patrolled the area where the crime happened and found this person sneaking around the civilian area in the middle of the night. They arrested him. Once he was arrested, the woman's rape case was solved, so he was locked up here …"
"Sir, I'm innocent, I'm innocent. I was only following someone outside that night. I'm a bounty hunter, not a rapist …" the man shouted loudly in the cell, looking at Xia Pingan with hopeful eyes.
"Do you have any evidence?"
"That rapist didn't leave anything behind when he committed the crime, so we haven't been able to find any evidence, nor have we been able to interrogate him. That's why we've locked him up here to continue our investigation. If we find any evidence, we can castrate him and send him to the court. He won't have to be locked up here anymore …"
Qi Dafeng's castration wasn't something he said out of anger. It was indeed the law of the Shang Dynasty. Once a rapist was found guilty, the first punishment was castration.
Xia Pingan didn't say anything. He only glanced at the man before continuing to walk forward.
There were all kinds of summoners locked up here. Most of them were reserve summoners and One-Sun realm summoners. There were all kinds of reasons why they were locked up here. Other than the suspected rapist, there were three types of summoners locked up here. The first type were summoners who used summoning spells in public or participated in fights. This was strictly prohibited by the Inspection Department. The second type were bounty hunters who crossed the line to complete the mission and were caught by the Inspection Department. The third type were those who used spatial equipment to smuggle prohibited items.
The second and third type were serious enough to not be locked up here. They would have been thrown into prison after the trial. Those who were locked up here were either not serious enough to be locked up for a year or a few months with a fine. Otherwise, there wasn't enough evidence and the Inspection Department was still investigating. They would be handed over when the time came.
After walking around the dungeon, Xia Pingan roughly understood what kind of people were locked up here. These summoners were nothing in the eyes of the Judgement Army. However, in the eyes of ordinary people and the police, these guys were definitely the most dangerous and terrifying. They were dangerous and difficult to deal with. Other than the Inspection Department, no one could deal with them.
Damn it. How could ordinary people resist using the Circle Prison spell to violate a woman?
Unknowingly, Qi Dafeng brought Xia Pingan to the cell where the last prisoner was locked up.
When he saw that man, Xia Pingan was almost shocked by that man.
In the shadow of the cell, the man sat motionless in the corner like a stone. His long hair was messy, and his whole body exuded the aura of an angry lion. He stared coldly at Xia Pingan, who was standing outside the cell, with a fiery cold and unyielding gaze.
What scared Xia Pingan was that person's face. There were more than ten scars on that person's face, as well as bumpy burns. Other than a pair of eyes that were still intact, the other parts of the person's face could no longer be seen as a human.
"This man … is not a summoner?" Xia Pingan asked Qi Dafeng after sensing for a while.
"Yes, my lord. This man is not a summoner. He is a high-level warrior who cultivates Battle Qi. He has already reached Level Eight …"
In this world, martial artists cultivated Battle Qi, which was a different system from summoners. It could only be said that in a world where summoners and guns existed, martial artists lived a miserable life. They could not even be considered as supporting characters. In the world of martial artists, eighth-grade martial artists were similar to summoners in the Eight Sun Realm. They were definitely top-notch existences. It would not be a problem for them to overturn a police station. However, even such a martial artist would be captured by a summoner in the One Sun Realm with a simple spell, and he would just sit there and wait for his death.
When he heard Qi Dafeng call Xia Pingan 'Sir', the cold gaze of the silent man flickered slightly.
"Why is this man here?" Xia Pingan continued to ask.
"The Inspection Department found this man in the dock area half a year ago. He had just disembarked from a ship. He was carrying weapons and a lot of high explosives. When he was discovered, he wanted to escape. When he escaped, he even injured two policemen. However, he was caught by us!"
"A lot of explosives? How much did he carry?"
"More than 2000 kg …"
"How much?" Xia Pingan thought that he had misheard him. Therefore, he asked again.
"More than two thousand kilograms. I thought it was a mistake, but I didn't expect it to be true. This person disguised the two thousand kilograms of high explosives as luggage and carried them on his back. The explosives are still in the evidence room!"
'What does this guy want to do in Shang Jing City with so many explosives? Is he going to set off fireworks … '
"Have you interrogated him?"
"We've interrogated him. This man refused to say a word even if he was beaten to death. He just kept silent like a lump of iron. We don't know why such a person came to Shang Jing City. He's a dangerous person and can't be let out casually. However, we can't find any more clues about him at the moment. We can't find out his identity either. So, we can only lock him up here!"
