At Safim's house in Zhuixing District, Safim was preparing to go to bed after taking a bath. Suddenly, a servant from the house hurried into his bedroom: "Mr."
"What?"
"Our people at the security station sent a message saying that a large group of security officers were leading the team to arrest the murderer of the church village murder."
Safim frowned: "Sure enough, that Venedin will bring this matter to cause trouble. You quickly go and inform Di Kui and tell him the situation here. I will handle this group of security officers."
"yes."
In the branch of the public security station, Venedin was writing down the incident under the questioning of the security officer. At this time, the chief of security of the branch had led the team out for 8 or 9 minutes. He touched the concave and convex marks on the handle of the sword.
He said, "Sir, where is the bathroom? I feel a little uncomfortable in my stomach."
The Sheriff put down the pen and paper in his hand: "Over there, you can see it when you turn the corner."
"Thanks."
After leaving the security officer's office, Venedin saw the sign for the restroom around the corner, but he did not go there. He looked around, turned around and flew out of the security office...
It was late at night, it was already 5 minutes after 1 o'clock in the morning. Under the swinging clock of Detention Center No. 5, the deputy warden and three subordinates were secretly planning their plans for tonight in the room.
The deputy warden said: "You have already received the first payment, and you will get the final payment of 50,000 gold coins as soon as the matter is completed."
A guard said uneasily: "Sir, would it be too cruel to kill so many people just for 100,000 gold coins?"
The deputy warden waved his hand to stop him: "Although 100,000 gold coins is not much, I have thought about it. If you go to some small countries with this money, you can still live a very comfortable life. At least you will not have to worry about it for more than ten years.
"
"But the capital here is so prosperous. To give up such a good life and go to the remote countryside to become a country boy, this..." People in big cities will always look down on rural people, let alone the world's largest empire and the largest king.
citizens of the capital.
The deputy warden's face darkened: "What nonsense, you have already taken the money, what's the use of talking about it now. If you regret it, just spit out the money, but let me tell you, you already know about this matter, if you don't participate, what will happen behind the scenes?"
The person who paid for the murder will not let you stay in the royal capital safely. Don’t forget, who are these people, and who are the people behind the murder of these people?"
The guard was startled: "Sir, sir..."
The deputy warden said: "Stop your unnecessary worries. Those of you who have never been abroad may not know that although big cities abroad are not as prosperous as the royal capital, they are not bad. We are the same in the royal capital after all.
If you are a government employee, you can become a village chief or town mayor when you go abroad. Then it will not be others instructing you to do this or that, but you will be in charge of others."
"Mayor!" The three people's eyes lit up: "Okay, sir, we will listen to you."
At this time, there was a knock on the door, and several people quickly fell silent. The deputy warden opened the door, and it was his companion. After the man came in, the deputy warden hurriedly asked: "Is the person gone?"
The guard who came in shook his head: "Master Halls is still interrogating, and several interrogators are also accompanying him."
The deputy warden clenched his fist and knocked on the table gently: "Just wait patiently."
…
The chief of the branch brought more than thirty people to Safim's villa. The guards in the villa all drew their swords and weapons and confronted the security officers. At this time, Safim hurriedly ran out and said:
"Oh, my, it's Mr. Pace, what brought so many people to my place?"
Pace held the sword and looked at the guards around him coldly and said, "Mr. Safim, don't you ask your personal guards to put away their weapons?"
Safim waved his hand and scolded: "Put your weapons away and get away quickly."
The guards withdrew their weapons and retreated far away.
Pace said: "We received reports from the public that you are hiding the murderer who attacked the church village outside the city. We are here to arrest them."
Safim said angrily: "Who is talking nonsense? I know it. It must be my business rivals. They see that my business is doing too well, so they deliberately slander me."
Pace said: "Whether it is slander or not, we will know after we search it, search it for me!"
"Wait." Safim quickly stopped him.
"What, you want to hinder us from performing our official duties?"
Safim said hurriedly: "No, how dare I do this? It's just that there are many family members at home who are resting, which is very inconvenient. Can you wait until none of them come out before you go in and search?"
Pace snorted: "If the prisoner escapes, can I count you as an accomplice? Come on, go in and search!"
More than thirty police officers quickly rushed into each house and room in the villa. For a while, the female family members in the room could not stop screaming.
"Humph, you have quite a lot of women here." Pace strode into the main house and searched around.
Safim followed beside him and said: "They are all maids at home, they cannot be the murderers of the church village."
Pace asked, "Where is your study?"
"On the second floor."
"I mean the study room on the first floor."
Safim looked at Pace's aggressive gaze and said, "Over there, please follow me."
When I came to the study room, there was no one in the room, the bookshelf was full of books, and the copper fireplace was still there quietly.
Pace walked to the bookshelf and looked at it, and then walked to the fireplace. He pointed at the scabbard in his hand and said: "There must be a secret passage here, open it."
"This...Master Pace, what are you talking about?"
"Huh?" Pace said solemnly, "I said open it."
Safim said: "Lord Pace, there is a warehouse behind here, where I store some things. There is no one inside."
Pace shouted: "Do you want me to call someone to dismantle it?"
Safim had no choice but to knock down the fireplace.
With a "rumbling" sound, the heavy fireplace rose, and a 1.4-meter-wide, red-brick-paved curved passage stretched downward.
Pace glanced at Safim, waved his hand, and a security guard with crystal lighting took the lead and went down.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! After a while, an exclamation came from the passage.
Pace hurriedly asked inside: "What happened?"
There was silence in the passage, and the security guard who went down didn't respond at all.
Pace grabbed Safim and dragged him towards the passage, asking: "What's going on?"
Before he could answer, Pace heard the light gradually getting brighter in front of him. He turned the corner and suddenly saw golden light shining in front of him. A dark room of more than 40 meters square was filled with countless gold and silver jewelry. Yellow gold objects,
Gems, jewelry, pearls, agate, swords, crowns... all kinds of treasures are piled up together, like a mountain, occupying more than 6% of the entire darkroom. And the security guard who came down to explore the way is standing here
I was dumbfounded in front of a mountain of treasures.
Pace was also considered a high-ranking official of the police station. When he saw the vault in front of him, his heart could not help but beat loudly. He licked his lips that were dry due to the bleeding and asked Safim: "What's going on?"
Safim shook off his hand and said angrily: "I told you, this is where I store my things. There are no murderers at all!"
"Damn it!" Pace searched carefully in the dark room and even climbed up the jewelry mountain.
Safim shouted: "Slow down, please don't trample all my treasures." He then said angrily: "I pay so much business tax to the capital every year, but you are treating me like this.
He came to my house in the middle of the night, ransacked it, and said there was a murderer here. Don’t forget, my money is included in the salary you receive!"
Pace jumped down from Treasure Mountain, feeling quite unhappy, and said: "Someone reported you, so there is suspicion here."
"Just one report makes you suspect?" Safim said angrily: "Okay, okay, I'll go to your police station to report in a moment. I'll report all my business rivals, and I'll see if you want to go there one by one.
Check them."
Pace said: "The person who reported it was very clear about the mechanism on your bookshelf and the secret passage behind the fireplace."
"Is this true? Is this how your police station handles cases?"
After exiting the secret passage, Pace asked his subordinates and they all said that no suspicious person was found.
Safim smiled: "You don't even know what the person you want to arrest looks like or who he is, so you come to me to arrest him. Humph, no wonder there have been so many cases in the capital these days, but you haven't solved any of them.
"
Pace glanced at Safim with a frown. The reason why he led the team this time was to launch a surprise attack and catch someone by surprise. As long as he caught someone, there would naturally be whistleblowers and church villagers to identify him.
Safim said: "Pace, now that I've checked, it's time to leave. I still need to rest."
"Humph, Mr. Safim, I'm sorry to disturb you." Pace ordered: "Close the team."
After Pace left, Safim asked everyone in the family to go back and rest, but he came to the study on the first floor alone, thinking in his heart: "Humph, how could I not protect the underground dark hall? There are more than one in the dark passage behind the fireplace.
It's such a simple passage." Just as he was fiddling with the books on the bookshelf, a cold sword edge came from behind him and went around his neck.
"Although we parted ways not long ago, I paid another visit to the owner of the house, Safim." Venedin's voice sounded elegantly behind Safim.
Safim stiffened: "Yes, it's you, Mr. Venedin. How did you get in? What are you doing?"
"While you and the Sheriff were chatting in front, I came in." Venedin said: "I don't want to do anything, I just want blue eyes."
Safim forced a smile and said: "I haven't found such a thing yet. Didn't I agree before that I would look for you after I think about it?"
"Don't pretend to be confused with me. It's not what I like to coerce others in this way. But I have to get those blue eyes, so don't force me. Even if you kill you, I will look for you slowly."
