Tao Yuduan sat in his own seat in the Zhenxie Si Mansion Office, looking through the latest official documents with a displeased look on his face.
What is recorded above is how many monsters and monsters the three small flag officers sent out with their men captured and how many points they gained.
Originally, two teams would come back in a few days to replace his and Dongfang Junhong's teams, but this happened suddenly. If he didn't find out, he would have trouble sleeping and eating.
At this time, the subordinates he sent to investigate came back.
"Your Majesty, Tao Xu has not been out of the house since he entered the city. On April 17, he bought a few jars of wine at a shop, and then went to the carriage house and rented two fast horses.
One of them was sent outside the city for him by the horse and carriage company."
April 17th, the day before departure.
It seems that he is indeed an outsider from Tao Xu United.
Tao Yu's face darkened.
I just don’t know who this outsider is.
"Tap!"
There were footsteps and another subordinate walked in.
"Sir, Gu An has been staying in the house since the morning before yesterday. According to the investigation, when he tested his fist power, he directly broke the stone tablet used in the county government office for testing."
Regarding the investigation of Gu An, Tao Yu also gave the order after returning this morning.
He thought that Tao San's death was related to Qin Li and Gu An no matter what. Qin Li was already over thirty years old and had only tempered the sixth level, so there was nothing to worry about.
Gu An is at the 9th level of body tempering at the 16th level, so he naturally has to find out his details before he can stumble him during the assessment.
After hearing this, Tao Yu stood up with disbelief on his face.
"Do you know his specific punching power?"
"I don't know, he never tested it again later."
"Where is he now? Hasn't he come out of the house yet?"
"Today is his birthday. Yesterday Qin Li ordered three tables of wine and food for him at Cuijiang Tower to celebrate his birthday. He should be at Cuijiang Tower now."
After a moment of uncertainty on Tao Yu's face, she slammed the table.
"Gather people and follow me to Cuijiang Tower!"
As soon as Tao Yugang went out, Dongfang Runhong's subordinates saw this and quickly went to notify Dongfang Runhong.
"Going out aggressively?"
Dongfang Runhong muttered to himself.
Could it be that he has found Tao San's murderer?
"Which way are they going?"
"It looks like it's heading towards Dongcheng District."
Ping'an County is divided into east and west urban areas with the river running through the north and south as the boundary. Dongcheng District is the bustling market, where restaurants, drug stores, carriage shops, and fireworks places are all located.
Xicheng District is home to government offices such as the county government, Zhenxie Division, Wu Mansion, and academies, or private organizations such as chambers of commerce and casual cultivator alliances.
But without exception, they are all huge creatures that are inaccessible to ordinary people.
Ever since that day at the county government office, when he saw Gu An blocking Tao Yu's blow, Dongfang Runhong paid attention to Gu An.
The enemy of my enemy is my friend.
Dongfang Runhong couldn't help but think of what was said in the investigation that today was Gu An's birthday and he would celebrate it at Cuijiang Tower.
He immediately walked towards the place where Yang Ling was resting, and at the same time ordered: "Gather the people and be ready to go at any time."
"yes!"
…
Cuijiang Tower.
As the largest restaurant in Ping'an County, Cuijiang Restaurant is divided into three floors.
The first floor is an ordinary lobby, and ordinary people usually sit on the first floor.
On the second floor are some elegant rooms separated by screens, which are generally the places chosen by dignitaries.
There are only a few rooms on the third floor, which will only be used when the county magistrate or Yang Ling and others from Ping An County come here.
The three private rooms on the second floor that Qin Li arranged for Gu An yesterday.
Now, the screens used to separate the three private rooms have been retracted and integrated into one large room.
Gu An sat in the middle, eating wine and food.
Qin Li sat on the left side of Gu An, while on the right was Yuan Shan who followed him forcefully.
Although Yuan Shan said that he was here to help Gu An celebrate his birthday, Gu An still saw the seriousness in Yuan Shan's eyes when he just came back and stared at him for two breaths.
However, Gu An had expected this outcome and was not panicked.
Qin Li crossed Gu An and talked softly with Yuan Shan for a while.
Then he looked around, stood up with the wine glass in hand, and said with a smile: "Today is Xiao An's birthday. We uncles are all spies and roughnecks, and we don't have any good gifts for him.
So, let’s all wish Xiaoan a smooth pass in the examinations of the Zhenxie Department and the Wufu next month!”
Upon hearing this, the other detectives also stood up and wished Gu An passed the examination.
At this moment, violent footsteps and noises came from the corridor below.
"Ta-ta-ta-ta."
"Hey, Master Tao! Master Tao, what are you doing!"
Soon, a group of young people in black attire, led by Tao Yu in a green embroidered robe, climbed to the second floor despite the waiter's obstruction.
"Find someone!"
Tao Yu said coldly and glanced around the private room covered by screens.
"Gu An!"
The second floor of Cuijiang Building was big or not, but Tao Yu's shout basically attracted everyone on the entire floor.
Many people stuck their heads out to look at the situation outside.
"Tao Yu? What's going on with his angry look?"
"Hey, you don't know something about this; the news came out last night that his brother died at the inn."
"Huh? Really! Does anyone dare to touch his bad luck?"
"It's indeed amazing, but who is this Gu An?"
Tao Yu glanced at the two people who were whispering, and then withdrew his gaze.
Wearing a yellow robe, with the word "武" drawn on the chest in black silk; obviously, they were from the Wu Mansion in Ping'an County.
Gu An, who was sitting upright in the elegant room, had a look of confusion on his face. He couldn't help but ask Yuan Shan softly: "Master Yuan, at this time, Master Tao is looking for his subordinates. Is there anything important you have to do?"
Yuan Shan's face twitched and he said quietly: "I don't know, let's go and see Tao Yu."
Immediately afterwards, Yuan Shan took the lead and stood up. Gu An followed him expressionlessly. Qin Li and the other two tables of detectives also stood up and followed.
Push open the screen.
Gu An saw an angry Tao Yu standing in the middle of the second floor, with his team members still behind him.
However, what surprised Gu An was that the waiter at Cuijiang Tower actually dared to keep persuading him.
"Master Tao, I wonder what you have to do with this junior?"
Gu An asked doubtfully.
Seeing Gu An coming out, Tao Yu pushed the waiter who was blocking him away, walked quickly to Gu An, and after bowing to Yuan Shan for a while, he immediately asked sharply: "Let me ask you, in the past two days,
Where were you when the agents from the County Government's Sixth Team escorted Tao San to Jingshan?"
Gu An paused and said in confusion: "Master Tao, do you still remember that a few days ago, you invited this junior to go to the Suppression of Evil Division. But this junior is well aware that his strength is weak. Compared with other peers who participated in the assessment, he still has many shortcomings.
place.
Therefore, I have been staying in the house for the past two days, studying the mysteries of the realm of condensing pills, hoping to be able to advance to the realm of condensing pills in the assessment.
Only in this way can we live up to Master Tao's expectations."
As soon as Gu An said these words.
Yuan Shan suppressed his slightly trembling heart.
