The captains of Dongchang all held steel knives, but their eyes were fixed on the Libian in Xiao Chen's hand.
In their hearts, Xiao Chen is a gentle and humble brother, and at the same time, he is also a good investigator who is careful and clear-thinking.
But they had never seen Xiao Chen's cruel methods towards his enemies, which made people feel chills on their backs.
Perhaps, he is right, the enemy is the enemy, and a little kindness may bring his own doom.
The dead man without his jaw tried his best to get close to Liao Xianghe, as if he was trying his best to catch up and fulfill his mission of protecting his master.
However, Xiao Chen did not give him this opportunity.
With a shake of his right hand, the sharp blade, as thin as a cicada's wing, rotated and stabbed into the throat of the dead man.
Looking at the dead soldiers who had to protect him at the last moment, Liao Xianghe turned a blind eye. His eyes seemed to be filled with Xiao Chen and every knife he swung.
The two Qianhus collapsed on the ground like dead dogs. The gorgeous flying fish uniforms they wore, combined with their postures, looked so funny.
"Put on the shackles and escort them back to Dongchang." Xiao Chen shouted softly and slowly put the Liblade in his hand back into the dark scabbard.
Under the night sky, the fierce north wind was still raging.
A series of sharp whistling sounds, like sharp blades, tore through the eardrums of every pedestrian.
Figure No. 10, escorting three shackled prisoners, walked towards the Dongchang Prison.
In the hall of the East Factory, Lin Shangli put his hands behind his back, pacing back and forth under the portrait of Yue Fei. Occasionally he raised his head and looked at the gate of the East Factory.
After a moment of silence, he started pacing back and forth again.
Xiao Lizi crossed his hands on his abdomen, held the handle of the whisk with his left hand, and let the white whisk rest on his left arm.
"Little Lizi, go to the gate and see if Xiao Chen and the others are back." Lin Shangli ordered after stopping.
It has been two hours since Xiao Chen and the others went to Beizhen Fusi. Logically speaking, if they had to arrest a prisoner in such a short distance, they should have returned a long time ago.
Just now, we really should have called in the captains from other services and asked Xiao Chen to take them with him.
When he comes back this time, no matter whether there is any progress in the case or not, even if he doesn't want to be the one in charge of punishing thousands of households, all the captains in Dongchang will give him restraint.
In a few breaths, Little Plum had already ran back from the gate.
"Back to the factory, Sir, there is no one on the official road outside."
"Okay, I understand. Just wait and see." After saying that, Lin Shangli started moving back and forth like weaving cloth.
Seeing the factory master walking back and forth, Little Plum also became anxious.
This is the fifth time I have gone to the door to wait and see. Why haven't Xiao Chen and the others come back? Could it be that they encountered resistance in Beizhen Fusi?
While I was drinking tea, there was a sound of footsteps at the door.
Lin Shangli stopped and looked at the door expectantly: "Little Liz, go and see if Xiao Chen and the others are back."
"Yes." Xiao Lizi responded, and just as he was about to take a step, two figures walked in one after the other.
"Mr. Factory Master, Liao Xianghe has been arrested and brought to justice. Also arrested were two Jinyi Guards Qianhu who tried to resist. They are all being detained in the East Factory Prison." Xiao Chen and Xiao Chen clasped their fists and saluted before reporting.
"Okay, okay, just arrest me." Lin Shangli pointed to the chair next to him: "Sit down and say. Xiao Lizi, make two bowls of Pu'er ripe tea."
Xiao Chen was not polite, he dusted himself off a few times and sat down.
"This arrest, the resistance of Beizhen Fusi is not small. The factory master went back to Commander Xu and spoke carefully, asking Jin Yiwei to read the emperor's edict about our Dongchang carefully." Xiao Chen
Said with a smile.
"This Xu Kaiying has not been the commander of the Jinyiwei for a long time. Liao Xianghe of Beizhen Fusi is the real powerful figure of the Jinyiwei. Let's not talk about the case first, let's talk about the internal structure of the Jinyiwei. Catching Liao Xianghe is equivalent to giving
This is a chance for Xu Kaiying to truly take power. You don’t need to look for him, he will come back to me later.” Lin Shangli laughed.
Xiao Chen squeezed his eyes: "If Xu Kaiying really takes control of Jinyiwei and there is a larger arrest operation, Jinyiwei's manpower can be used to assist us."
"This is natural. Jin Yiwei and we both work for the emperor, so we should help each other." Lin Shangli said with a smile.
"Did our Dong Factory suffer any casualties during this operation?" Lin Shangli asked again.
I just heard Xiao Chen say that Beizhen Fusi's resistance is not small. If there are casualties in the Middle East Factory during the operation, he must propose a reasonable compensation plan.
Dongchang was established not long ago, so we must do our best to win over people's hearts.
Xiao Chen took the lead in the charge and could not let him have any worries.
"We had no casualties, but their resistance was a bit fierce. I killed a few people. Do you want to report it to you?" Xiao Chen sat upright and said seriously.
It stands to reason that anyone who resists during such an arrest can be killed on the spot.
However, since the factory owner asked about his own casualties, Xiao Chen casually told him about the murder.
"What, how many people were killed? Why not kill all those who resisted? I am handling the case in the East Factory, and there is no room for anyone to resist at all." Lin Shangli slapped his right hand hard on the table.
Xiao Chen chuckled: "All those who resisted were killed. Although the two Qianhu also resisted, I suspected that they were Liao Xianghe's hidden accomplices in the Jinyi Guards, so I brought them back and dealt with them casually after getting a confession.
.”
"Yes." Lin Shangli nodded, "This will be the case from now on. If anyone resists, we will kill them all. Kill them a few more times to see if anyone still resists Dongchang."
There was a sound of slight footsteps, and Xiao Lizi came in carrying three tea bowls and placed them in front of the three of them one by one.
Lin Shangli picked up the tea bowl and looked at Xiao Chen with a smile: "Tell me, if you bring more people over today, will they still resist?"
"I can't say for sure, but if there are more people, I can overwhelm them with momentum." Xiao Chen said.
"I always feel that our Dongchang can't survive without a leader on the surface." Lin Shangli said, passing the tea bowl in his hand to his mouth and taking a sip.
"Master Factory Master, aren't you the leader of our East Factory?"
"I'm talking about the front line. There must be one person who can lead all the captains in our East Factory." Lin Shangli said.
Xiao Chen hurriedly declined: "I can't handle the punishment of thousands of households. I really can't be an official."
"Who asked you to be an official? Who asked you to be in charge of thousands of households? I want to hand over the control power of the Dongchang captain to you. For any future actions, all the Dongchang captains are at your disposal. There is no need to ask for help.
