To be fair, Du Guangzhong still respects Chu Yuansheng quite a bit, but this respect does not come from Chu Yuansheng, but from Chu Yuansheng's father, the 'Giant Hero' Chu Kuangge.
When Du Guangzhong first joined the Guanzhong Punishment Hall, Chu Kuangge was still in office. That Chu Juxia had indeed a very strong personality. Even a young detective like Du Guangzhong who had never had any contact with Chu Kuangge admired him deeply.
, in his mind, the Guanzhong Punishment Hall at that time was the Guanzhong Punishment Hall at its peak.
Now that Chu Kuangge is dead, his legacy has passed on to Chu Yuansheng. Du Guangzhong still respects him, but not to the same extent as Chu Kuangge.
For example, if Chu Yuansheng asks him to take orders from Chu Xiu, Du Guangzhong may agree, but whether he will implement it or not is unknown.
Originally, Chu Yuansheng thought that Chu Xiu was asking him for something, but in the end, Chu Xiu just had a meal with Du Guangzhong and left directly. Even Du Guangzhong didn't understand what Chu Xiu meant.
However, Chu Xiu knew that someone would definitely tell Wu Siping what he had done with Du Guangzhong in Guanzhong City.
After all, the other party is an old man who has been hanging around in the entire Guanzhong torture hall for more than ten years. He must have some connections.
Chu Xiu thought well. After Chu Xiu and Du Guangzhong left Guanzhong City, a middle-aged warrior immediately wrote down what Chu Xiu and Du Guangzhong had done in the city and passed it to the inspector's hall.
This man was a gangster like Wu Siping in the past.
It's just that Wu Siping was forced to surrender after being caught by the Guanzhong Punishment Hall, but he was inspired by Wu Siping's incident and chose to join the Guanzhong Punishment Hall to clear his name, so the two naturally became good friends.
His talent and strength were better than Wu Siping's, so he was directly selected by the Criminal Division and joined the Criminal Division, while Wu Siping started out as an ordinary little detective.
The relationship between the two was quite good. Every time Wu Siping came to Guanzhong City, the two of them would get together, so he did not refuse the simple matter of using his authority to spread the news.
As for the situation at Wu Siping's place, he knew that his friend was unruly and very ambitious. The previous inspector who had reached the Three Flowers Gathering Realm could not restrain him, let alone the current Wai Gang.
The border patrol envoy was sent.
It's just that he happened to know the news about Chu Xiu while listening to other people's chat.
Although the Dragon and Tiger List has spread throughout the world, warriors like them who are no longer young actually pay little attention to it, and Chu Xiu is not the most famous on the Dragon and Tiger List, so just now
When he learned Chu Xiu's identity, he was also stunned. He didn't expect that the other party's background was not small, and he was actually a hero on the Dragon and Tiger List. No wonder the other party could serve as an inspector just after joining the torture hall.
Wu Siping probably doesn't know Chu Xiu's identity yet, so he also wants to advise Wu Siping to be careful and never treat Chu Xiu as an ordinary young Waigang realm warrior. The other party is not just relying on Chu Yuansheng.
Only then did Guanxi reach its current position.
So he wrote another message and prepared to send it to Wu Siping, but he didn't expect that the formation patterns on the messaging formation flickered for a moment and then suddenly went out.
"Broken?" The warrior frowned, but he wasn't too worried. He just put away the letter containing Chu Xiu's true identity and went out to find the formation master in the Guanzhong Punishment Hall to repair it.
Things like the communication array are often used, so it's not a big deal. Just ask the array master to repair it. It's just that the repair time is a bit long. A few days can be considered fast, and it can even take a month.
But it doesn't matter, anyway, there is more than one communication formation in the Guanzhong Punishment Hall.
It's just that only this message formation can be used by him at will, and he can't touch the others, so this letter cannot be transmitted to Wu Siping for the time being.
At this time, in the land of Guanxi, in the inspection hall under Chu Xiu, Wu Siping got the news from Guanzhong City. His face suddenly became gloomy. He called Liu Youcheng and Qin Fang, threw the news in front of them, and coldly
He hummed: "Look, Du Guangzhong has completely surrendered to Chu Xiu!
Chu Yuansheng, who Chu Xiu brought him to see in person, probably used this advantage to induce him to side with Chu Xiu, and that idiot actually agreed!"
Liu Youcheng and Qin Fang also frowned, but this time they had no doubts.
They have known Du Guangzhong for more than ten years, and they know that the person Du Guangzhong admires the most is Chu Kuangge, the former leader of the Guanzhong Punishment Hall, ‘Ju Xia’.
Now if Chu Xiu uses Chu Yuansheng to get Du Guangzhong to join him, this is also very possible.
The key to the question is, did Du Guangzhong tell the truth about what they had done?
Wu Siping's expression turned cold and he said, "We can't control that much anymore. If that matter is revealed, we will all be in trouble!"
"Then what do you want to do?" Liu Chengli asked.
Wu Siping did not answer him, but just said: "Don't forget, we have burned all the ledgers, and there is no evidence of that incident."
Qin Fang said with a gloomy face: "There is no evidence, but Du Guangzhong is the witness! He knows everything recorded in the account book. When the time comes, he will check them one by one, and it will be easy to find out."
A warrior's mental power is strong, and his memory is naturally much better than that of ordinary people. Memorizing an account book is no problem at all.
In fact, he did the same thing, memorizing the entire account book just in case something unexpected happened.
Wu Siping's eyes revealed a trace of murderous intent and said: "We burned the physical evidence, and we killed the witness, wouldn't that mean that there is no evidence?"
"Wu Siping! Are you crazy?"
Liu Chengli and Qin Fang stood up directly, with horror in their eyes.
Wu Siping's meaning was obvious, he actually wanted to kill Du Guangzhong!
There was internal fighting in the Guanzhong torture hall, and there was competition among the four chief torture officers. With so many inspectors under Wei Jiuduan, there was naturally competition for credit, resources, etc.
However, no matter how much internal fighting there is, there is a limit. Killing colleagues without permission is a taboo in Guanzhong!
Even if the arrester of the Guanzhong Punishment Hall makes a mistake, he must be taken to a branch hall or the Guanzhong City headquarters to be convicted before being dealt with. He cannot kill casually, let alone kill a colleague without any reason.
.
Wu Siping raised his head and said with a cold expression: "I'm not crazy! This is just the best solution.
How did the previous inspector Fang Zhengyuan die? Don’t you know the details?
It's just killing people. What's so great about it? We all have a background as gangsters. Is it difficult to arrange a perfect murder scene?
If you two are too timid to do it, then just leave it to me. I have long disliked that old boy Du Guangzhong!"
After saying that, Wu Siping turned around and left. Liu Chengli and Qin Fang looked at each other with helpless expressions in their eyes. Wu Siping and the others could not stop them.
In the past, Wu Siping was a gangster. Thieves are not great thieves. One relies on technology and the other relies on violence.
Large groups of bandits in the rivers and lakes rob caravans coming and going, but a lone thief like Wu Siping looks for opportunities to kill people and seize wealth. He has even done such things as exterminating families if given the opportunity.
Later, he was captured by the Guanzhong Torture Hall, and his ferocious nature was reduced a lot. But now, looking at it, Wu Siping is still the same Wu Siping at heart, crazy and ruthless!
On the way back, Du Guangzhong felt a little sad, not because of Chu Xiu, but because of Chu Yuansheng.
When he was young, he regarded Chu Kuangge as his idol and hoped that he could become a person like Chu Kuangge. In his heart, Chu Juxia was even a god-like figure.
As a result, as he got older, he also realized that in this arena full of competing interests, it would be a great blessing for the world to have Chu Kuangge appear.
Although this Guanzhong hero Chu Yuansheng inherited Chu Kuangge's legacy, in Du Guangzhong's opinion, he was a bit too ordinary, so ordinary that he could not detect the shadow of Chu Kuangge in Chu Yuansheng.
Chu Xiu said beside him: "Why, you feel that Chu Yuansheng did not inherit Chu Juxia's mantle, are you disappointed?"
Du Guangzhong said quickly: "How can I be disappointed?"
Chu Xiu said lightly: "Actually, it's normal. People are different, even if Chu Yuansheng is the son of Chu Juxia.
There are many people in this world who need people like Chu Juxia, but there are even more people who don’t want to see another Chu Juxia appear again.
If Chu Yuansheng was like his father, then he wouldn't be alive now, even if he was protected by Zhongxingtang."
Du Guangzhong had some emotions, but before he could finish his emotions, Chu Xiu said: "Du Captou, in fact, what you should be worried about now is yourself. Before, there was only a rift between you and Wu Siping, but now, between you,
I'm afraid it's not just a rift, it's about to break up.
I don’t know what the agreement is between you, so I’m also curious about how Wu Siping will deal with you after you break up.”
Du Guangzhong's expression suddenly changed, and he suddenly said: "What do you mean?"
Chu Xiu smiled and said: "Du Captou, think about what you did after you arrived at Guanzhong City."
Du Guangzhong was confused for a moment, what had he done? He seemed to have done nothing.
Moreover, Chu Xiu did not try to win over him along the way. Moreover, Wu Siping and others mistook him for being attracted by Chu Xiu. Even if Chu Xiu really tried to win over him or threatened him, he would be prepared to deal with it.
He was ready, but the problem was that Chu Xiu didn't say anything either.
Seeing Du Guangzhong's appearance, Chu Xiu couldn't help but shake his head and said: "Du Captou, your behavior is a bit too upright, and I am embarrassed to think of you.
You have done nothing, but in the eyes of Wu Siping and others, you have done a lot.
Once the seeds of suspicion sprout, it will conjure up many images."
After Chu Xiu finished speaking, Du Guangzhong's complexion suddenly turned pale.
After falling down twice in the same place, Du Guangzhong was on the verge of crying.
