That strange martial artist wanted to see him?
Too many things had happened in the past few days, so Xia Pingan did not pay much attention to the prisoner locked up in the prison of the Inspection Department. He did not expect that person to want to see him.
Even though he felt it was strange, Xia Pingan's curiosity made him decide to see that person and see what he had to say.
In the interrogation room of the prison, Xia Pingan once again saw that person.
Messy hair, a face full of scars, and a body emitting an aura like that of a raging lion. Even though he was sitting on the interrogation chair fixed to the ground, that person still gave people a sense of oppression, making people worry that he would explode.
The two internal guards in the interrogation room were slightly nervous. Their four eyes were fixed on that person. The internal guard's hand was on the baton at his waist. He was ready to pounce on that person and give him a good beating if he made any strange movements.
That person only used an indifferent gaze with a trace of disdain to look at the internal guards in the interrogation room. His scarred face did not have a clear expression, but his slightly raised mouth seemed to be mocking them.
Hearing the door of the interrogation room open, the man turned his head and glanced at Xia Pingan, who had just entered the interrogation room. Only then did his eyes move.
Qi Dafeng followed Xia Pingan into the interrogation room.
Xia Pingan calmly sat behind the interrogation table before looking at that man, "I heard you wanted to see me. What's the matter?"
That man looked at Qi Dafeng and the two internal guards in the room and calmly said, "I only want to talk to you. Get the others out!"
Qi Dafeng did not think that the prisoner would make such a request. After being stunned for a moment, he flew into a rage and slammed the table, "Bastard, what do you want to do? Where do you think this is? Do you think you can be so picky?"
"You are called Qi Dafeng. As for the other two, one is called Chang Heng City, and the other is called Yin You De …" The angry lion-like man looked at the three people in the room and coldly said, "You are all normal people doing normal jobs. You are not bad people, and you are all earning money to support your families. Even though you work at the Inspection Department, you are still normal people. If you hear what I have to say, you will regret standing here. That will not do you any good …"
Qi Dafeng's expression slightly changed. He wanted to say something, but Xia Pingan slightly waved his hand, "He is right. You guys leave first. I will interrogate him alone!"
"Sir, be careful. This person is very dangerous …"
"No matter. No matter how dangerous he is, he is not as dangerous as those people who blocked me on the streets …"
Since Xia Pingan had spoken, Qi Dafeng didn't say anything else. He stood up and after answering, he left the interrogation room with the two internal guards. He even closed the door of the interrogation room. He didn't even dare to stay outside the door. Instead, he walked far away and waited at the end of the corridor outside the door.
"What do you want to say? Can you say it now?" Xia Pingan asked that person.
That person's gaze fell on Xia Pingan's face. His gaze was sharp, and there was an inexplicable change. After a moment of silence, he suddenly asked, "Why did you dare to come to the Huang Family to arrest people, and even dare to kill the Huang Family's young master on the streets? Don't you know the background of the Huang Family? They are the governor of a province, and you are just a small inspector?"
"There is no reason. It is just that there are some things that I should do, and I will do them. This has nothing to do with my identity or the other party's identity …"
"You mean you are a good person?"
"Interesting. This guy is actually chatting with me." Xia Pingan smiled, "It depends on how you define a good person. In the eyes of the Huang Family and many people, I might be the most evil person in the world!"
"Do you think you are a good person?"
"I might not be that good, but at least I don't think I'm a bad person. What about you? Do you think you are a good person?" Xia Pingan stared at that person and asked.
Translator: WQL Editor: Aleem After Xia Pingan asked this question, the man's terrifying face cracked open. He looked pretty grim as if he was laughing miserably. At the same time, his voice became hoarse like the friction between iron sand and a hard blade. "I'm not a good person. Actually, I should have died long ago. However, I'm not reconciled to that. Therefore, I'm still alive. You're right. My face was cut by a blade and scalded by myself. I should have long been too ashamed to live in this world. I don't want others to recognize me …"
"Oh, what have you done before?"
"I've killed people. I've killed many people …"
"You came to Shang Jing City to kill people?"
"Yes, I want to kill a few people before I die. At least I can atone for what I've done before!" That person was still laughing bitterly.
"Who do you want to kill?"
"I don't know, but I know they are in Shang Jing City. I can find them!"
'Them?' Xia Pingan frowned slightly, "What did they do to make you want to kill them?"
"Because they … deserve to die. All of them deserve to die …" That man's expression became even more ferocious, making it difficult to look straight at him. The iron chains all over his body trembled and rattled. He was agitated.
After a long time, he gradually calmed down. Xia Pingan calmly watched from the side. He waited until that man calmed down before he slowly opened his mouth, "I know, there are many people in Shang Jing who deserve to die. I'm not sure who you're talking about. What you said, I can't help you, nor can I make you atone for your crimes."
"Hahaha …" That man laughed wildly. His voice shook the entire room, "You don't understand what I'm talking about. You don't understand what it means to really deserve to die. I'm not afraid of death. Why would I be afraid of going to jail?"
"Well, you want to tell me this?" Xia Pingan asked.
"Red Leaf Mountain Villa in the north of Shang Jing City. I was going to go there. That place is the real devil's den in Shang Jing City. If you have the guts, you can go there and take a look!" That man finally said a place.
"That place is not under my jurisdiction!"
"The Huang Family is not under your jurisdiction, but you still went there!"
"That's different. Those victims are in Donggang District. I should uphold justice for them!" Xia Pingan smiled. He was not a hothead or a child who would be controlled by a prisoner's words. "By the way, you haven't told me your name after talking for so long."
"I've long regarded myself as a dead person. I'm like a ferocious ghost. It doesn't matter to me whether I have a name or not. If you want to call me that, just call me Ghost Slave!" That man said coldly.
"Do you have anything else to say?"
The man who called himself Ghost Slave looked at Xia Pingan with fiery eyes. "I know, you will definitely go there. Red Leaf Mountain Villa is the real devil's den in Shang Jing City. If you want to go there, you'd better not let those people find out your true identity. Once your identity is exposed, you will definitely die. The entire Adjudicator Army can't save you. No one in Shang Jing City can save you!"
Xia Pingan shrugged his shoulders, stood up, and directly left the interrogation room.
When he walked outside and saw Qi Dafeng standing at the end of the corridor, Xia Pingan said calmly, "I think that man is crazy and whimsical. Take him back to his cell!"
Qi Dafeng did not dare to ask what that man had said to Xia Pingan. He could only take that man back to his cell after Xia Pingan left.
Xia Pingan returned to his office. The tea that Wei Meiyu had made for him was still warm.
Just as he sat down, there was a knock on the door. "Come in!"
The door of the office opened. Situ Hua walked in with a flattering smile and handed a document to Xia Pingan. "Your Excellency, all the goods on the Fulong have been counted and unloaded from the ship. They are now in the warehouse at the dock. How should we deal with them?"
"Oh, all the goods have been counted?" Xia Pingan glanced at the list and asked faintly.
"Yes, all the goods have been counted. There are more than 12600 square meters of purple star wood and 30000000 jin of 10,000 dragon incense rice on the Fulong. The preliminary estimate is that the amount involved in the case is about 1.7 million gold coins."
Xia Pingan took a sip of tea. "Hmm, then deal with them according to the smuggled goods …"
"Does this have anything to do with the Garrison Army?" Situ Hua asked carefully.
The personnel and files of the Fulong Trading Company, as well as the smuggled pearls, had been handed over to the Judgement Corps by the Supervision Department. However, the goods on the ship had been detained by Xia Pingan. After the smuggling case was handed over to the Judgement Corps, it became quiet. It seemed that the higher-ups didn't want to make a big deal out of it. However, they didn't ask about the disposal of the other goods on the Fulong. This matter was a bit sensitive. If it wasn't handled well, it might have to be struck by lightning. Therefore, Situ Hua reminded him carefully.
"The laws of the Shang Dynasty don't stipulate that the Judgement Corps can't dispose of the dirty goods. Just deal with them as smuggled goods and auction them off. Apart from the stolen money going to the public, the rest will be counted as the Supervision Department's bonus. Right, bring some 10,000 dragon incense rice to the Supervision Department. Let everyone have a taste of it when they get off work!" Xia Pingan didn't mind at all. He picked up a pen and made comments on the document that Situ Hua handed over. After that, he handed the document back to Situ Hua. "Just deal with it like this!"
After receiving the document, Situ Hua let out a sigh of relief and left happily.
After dealing with the stolen money, the Supervision Department's bonus for this month would be too fat.
Xia Pingan didn't care about anything. Because he had handed over the smuggled goods to Lin Yi and handed the knife to Beitang Wangchuan, Lin Yi and Beitang Wangchuan wouldn't ask him to return those goods to the Fulong Trading Company. Therefore, he would just treat it as a benefit.
He wanted to let the people of the Judgement Corps know the consequences of offending him.
After Situ Hua left, Xia Pingan sat on the big chair and looked at the bustling people on the street outside the window. His eyes narrowed. "Red Leaf Villa? What's there?"
Ghost Slave said that Red Leaf Villa was the devil's den in Shangjing City. Ghost Slave was going there to revenge and kill people. Ghost Slave's words had successfully aroused Xia Pingan's curiosity.
