Chapter 257

257 Law and regulation Department

When the Men in Black entered the inspector Department building, Xia ping ‘an was sitting in the office, half-naked. Wei Meiyu bit her lips and held back her tears as she applied medicine on Xia ping’ an’s wounds with trembling hands, afraid that she would hurt Xia ping ‘an.

As Wei Meiyu applied medicine for Xia Pingan, she secretly looked at the tattoo on Xia Pingan’s back.

There were about 20 to 30 wounds on Xia Pingan’s body. These wounds were all left behind by the seven Suns realm expert. Although the wounds were not fatal and the wounds were not deep, as if they had been cut by a knife, even so, for ordinary people, these many wounds were enough to make them experience what a real heart-piercing pain was like.

Although these wounds were caused by the summoner in the seven Suns realm, Xia Pingan did not hate that person. He knew that he had already shown mercy to that person. If that person had wanted to, his injuries could have been ten times worse, unlike the current situation where only some flesh wounds were left.

The adjudicator Union and his identity as an inspector had prevented that person from falling out with him and killing an adjudicator in Shangjing.

Xia ping ‘an closed her eyes. She was still replaying every detail of her fight with the seven Suns realm expert in her mind.

To a Summoner, level did not mean everything. The effect of a powerful summoning spell in a fight could not be underestimated. Sometimes, it could even play a leading role. It was not impossible for a low-level Summoner to defeat a Summoner of a higher level. As long as the spell was used properly, anything was possible. This was also the fascinating part of the summoner profession. To a Summoner, there was no absolute weakness.

However, the gap between a three-sun realm Summoner and a seven-sun realm Summoner was too big. If a low-level Summoner’s spell couldn’t cover the difference in level, the result of the battle was obvious.

Xia Pingan thought about it many times in his head and realized that it would not be difficult for the seven-sun realm Summoner to kill him today. If that person wanted to kill him today, he would not even have the chance to escape. This result allowed Xia Pingan to truly calm down and see the gap between him and the summoners above the six-sun realm.

Shangjing was full of crouching tigers and hidden dragons. He had to work harder!

That person’s lightning summoning spell technique was very strange. He didn’t know what realm Pearl could summon lightning.

As Xia Pingan was thinking about this, his ears twitched and he heard the sound of messy footsteps coming from the corridor outside. He ” looked ” outside his office and saw a group of people walking toward his office in an aggressive manner.

As long Chao, Hua ziqin, and the others could only stand in the corridor and at the doors of their respective teams ‘offices due to the tokens in their hands. They dared not move and could only watch those people walking towards their offices in silence.

“Alright, it’s almost done!” Xia Pingan said to Wei Meiyu.

Wei Meiyu nodded and put away the medicine bottle.

Bang! Bang! Bang! The door to Xia Pingan’s office was violently pushed open from the outside. A few cold-looking Men in Black barged in. The Man in Black leading the group was in his thirties. He had a square face, squinted eyes, and thin lips. His face was cold and hard, and he had an overbearing aura.

“Who are you people?” Wei Meiyu asked angrily.

The square-faced man glanced at Wei Meiyu’s face and the medicine bottle in her hand, then at Xia Pingan’s wounds. He took out a token and said coldly, ” Hmph, Lord Xia really knows how to enjoy himself. We’re from the law supervisor of the judgement Army. Lord Xia, please come with us!

“Alright, I’ll go with you after I get dressed!” Xia Pingan stood up slowly, picked up his shirt, and prepared to put it on.

The squinted eyes of the square-faced man flashed as he said firmly, ” don’t waste time. Let’s go now. as he spoke, the square-faced man gave a look to the people on his left and right. Two Men in Black took out shackles and walked towards Xia Pingan, trying to cuff him.

“Take one more step forward and I’ll make sure none of you can leave this office today!” Xia ping ‘an glanced at the square-faced man and said coldly. He was slowly putting on his clothes. The two men in Black who were walking forward with shackles suddenly stopped.

......

Xia ping ‘an and the people from the legal Division sat in a black carriage, from the Donggang District to the adjudicator Army’s main camp at Mt. Ping.

This was Xia Pingan’s second time entering the ping Mountain Camp, and he was feeling a little strange. The first time he came here, he was taking the assessment to join the adjudicator Army. He did not expect that he would be captured on his second time.

The black carriage from the legal Division drove into the ping Mountain Camp and finally arrived at a five-story building at the foot of the mountain. Its outer wall was made of gray-white granite.

There was a sign hanging on the door of the building-law and discipline supervisor of the judgement Army. These five words could make people in the judgement Army feel intimidated and tremble at the sight of them.

After getting out of the car, Xia Pingan was directly brought to the cold iron prison of the legal Division.

After being locked up for a few hours, when it was almost dark, Xia Pingan was taken out of the cell and directly brought to an interrogation room.

Two cold-looking Men in Black robes sat in the interrogation room and looked at Xia Pingan, who was sitting in the interrogation chair.

“Xia ping ‘an, do you know your crime?”

The cold and oppressive voice echoed in the interrogation room.

Xia ping ‘an smiled, ” if it’s a crime to abide by the duties of the Donggang inspector, to disregard personal honor and death to protect the dignity of the great Shang Kingdom’s laws and the adjudicator Army, to suppress evil and protect the people, then I’m indeed guilty. Furthermore, I’m guilty of a great crime. The entire adjudicator Army is guilty as well.

The interrogators were stunned and didn’t know what to say.

After a few seconds of silence, one of the interrogators slammed the table and said, ” you still dare to deny it? ”

“How am I quibbling?”

“Then why did you barge into the Huang residence today and even kill the Huang residence’s steward?”

“I chased the murderer to the Huang residence. Is that considered trespassing? Other than the Imperial City, I don’t know any place in Shangjing that the adjudicator Army can’t enter when investigating a case. I don’t know when the inspectors of the adjudicating Army couldn’t even enter the governor’s mansion to reveal their identity and had to deal with cases according to the governor’s mansion’s servant’s attitude.

If there’s such a rule in the law enforcement Army and the great Shang Empire, please take it out and I’ll plead guilty. As for killing the Huang family’s housekeeper, I admit that I was the one who killed him. However, before I killed him, he attacked me first and stopped me from entering the mansion to search. His actions had already threatened my life and safety. I was acting in self-defense. On this point, the numerous guards of the Huang family and the people from the Donggang inspector Bureau can testify. If the law and supervision Department thinks that the members of the judicial Army and the inspection department should stick their heads out when someone puts a knife on their neck and doesn’t fight back when they are obstructed and threatened when they go out to handle a case, I’m also guilty, so you can punish me however you want!”

There was another few seconds of silence.

“Then why did you kill Huang Wei on the street?”

I remember that there is a rule in the ruling Army that if someone tries to break a prisoner and the prisoner tries to escape, the person who is escorting the prisoner can be dealt with at the right time. Killing the prisoner is not a crime!
