On the black shadow's chest, there are more than a dozen gaps, one after another, densely packed like a spider web.

The upper body of the black shadow tilted and fell to the ground, breaking into dozens of pieces with a snap.

The remaining parts were like toppled dominoes, falling one after another and scattered all over the ground.

The room fell into silence, and the black shadow completely disappeared.

The sense of crisis lingering in his heart disappeared completely, Zhou An sheathed the sword, and the state of enlightenment in his heart was gone.

[Sword Skill +2]

A line of text appeared in front of me. These dozen swords were displayed in the state of enlightenment, and their proficiency was improved.

The shadows under my feet also disappeared, and the feeling of restraint gradually dissipated.

Zhou An looked at the squirrel at the door and walked closer.

He teased it twice with his long knife to confirm that it was just an ordinary gray rat.

"Go back to the Yamen first and report the matter."

Zhou An made up his mind and checked the house. After finding no trace of himself, he took the man lying on the ground and left quietly.

After leaving the alley, he first asked a merchant on the street to look after the man. Then he went to the Yamen and told Capt. Xie what had happened.

Capt. Xie is drinking tea.

Ordinary fishermen can still catch fish, let alone catch the head.

As the only head catcher in the entire Anding County, Capt. Xie has always lived a happy life.

"What? Another person died, or the same way?"

When Capt. Xie heard Zhou An's report, he didn't even finish the tea. He put down the tea cup and hurriedly left the room.

Before leaving, he asked Zhou An not to run around, and not to let Zhou An interfere in this matter.

Zhou An knew in his heart that Capt. Xie was going to find the county magistrate, and then through the county magistrate, let the town commander handle it.

Not long after, Capt. Xie came back, gathered all the spies and walked towards the alley.

After arriving at the alley, Capt. Xie only did one thing, which was to fence the alley to prevent ordinary people from entering.

Zhou An is also one of them. He and Yu Hang are guarding an entrance.

"Are you in any danger?" Yu Hang asked with concern, knowing that Zhou An discovered it.

Zhou An shook his head and said that he was not in danger: "It's nothing serious, just found a body. By the way, looks like this, it's time for the Suppressant to come, right?"

Yu Hang nodded: "When something like this happens, we can only ask the Suppressant to come. After all, they are professionals. We can just be responsible for maintaining order."

The security in Anding County is maintained by police officers, but when something weird is involved, there will naturally be detectives in the town to deal with it.

"The county magistrate seems to have disappeared these days." Zhou An said casually.

The county magistrate did not come forward for major matters involving human life. In recent times, the master was mostly responsible for conveying the news. Even when they met, only Capt. Xie could see him.

Yu Hang chuckled and dismissed it: "It is said that it is for selection purposes, so I am immersed in writing articles."

The selection is also annual, but this does not involve ordinary people, but people who are already officials, passing the annual examination and passing the exam to higher positions.

This is much stricter. First, you need to write an article and have the Holy Spirit read it yourself.

Those who pass will go through a second inspection, which is to inspect the various governance levels in the place where they work.

There are standards for these, the selection time is approaching, and the county magistrate also wants to climb up.

"It really tarnishes the reputation of scholars." Yu Hang sneered: "If he only studies to become an official, then why should he do it?"

Zhou An frowned: "Be careful, don't talk nonsense about certain things."

Don't let others hear these things. If you hear about it, it will be difficult for Yu Hang to get along in Anding County.

Yu Hang said: "There are only two people here, so it's okay to chat. I just can't get angry."

Zhou An is well aware of his childhood personality. Even though he usually looks like he has nothing to do with himself, his personality is actually very strong at certain times.

While the two were chatting like this, something finally happened in the alley, and a group of people in black uniforms walked in from outside the alley.

There were about ten people, each with a serious face, and their aura was much stronger than that of the surrounding police officers.

The person walking at the front was a middle-aged man with a long knife on his waist.

The most eye-catching thing is his right hand, which is holding the long knife. It is thicker than his left hand.

Zhou Anshun took a look and already had an idea in his mind.

This is a master, and a master with a knife.

Although this man looks ordinary, his square face with Chinese characters exudes seriousness and seriousness.

Capt. Xie hurriedly greeted him: "Zhang Si County, you are finally here. This way."

The Great Chu State was divided into counties, prefectures and capitals from bottom to top.

The management names of Zhensi Si at each level are different, and they are divided into Si County, Si Fu, Si Zhou and Si Jing.

The Zhang Si County in front of him is the leader of the Guisi in Anding County.

In terms of official position, he is at the same level as the county magistrate, so Capt. Xie is very respectful.

Zhang Si County, with a sense of dignity and righteousness, nodded: "Take me to see it."

Capt. Xie did not dare to neglect, and quickly led the people who were suppressing Guisi to the room at the end of the alley.

Zhang Sixian walked in, and not long after, he walked out of the room and said a few words to Mr. Xie.

Xie Captou quickly responded, and then rushed towards Zhou An.

Zhou An was still chatting with Yu Hang. While chatting, he was thinking about how to improve his proficiency when he went back.

After hearing the footsteps, he subconsciously raised his head and saw Capt. Xie approaching.

"Zhou An, come with me." Xie Captou said.

Zhou An didn't know what he was being asked to do, but he nodded in agreement and followed Xie Captou to the room at the end of the alley.

The room was still dark, and several members of the Suppression Division were examining the little girl's body.

There were a few people checking the chinchilla carcass at the door.

"Master Zhang, Zhou An is here." Xie Baotou said with cupped hands.

"I've met Lord Zhang." Zhou An said.

Zhang Sixian stared at Zhou An and made a dull voice: "Was the squirrel at the door before you came?"

Zhou An shook his head: "Not at the door, a black shadow suddenly appeared and attacked me, but before he could attack, a sword flashed past, and the black shadow disappeared."

Zhou An had already thought about this, and what he said had to be partly true and partly false in order to get through.

He didn't want to expose himself, not for anything else, but mainly because the world was too dangerous. It would be best to have a golden finger and slowly survive until you are invincible.

Zhangsi County fell into silence.

It was quiet.

Capt. Xie asked: "Master Zhang, what did you find?"

Zhang Sixian shook his head and said: "The origin of the squirrel's worship has not yet been discovered, but it seems that a master of swordsmanship has come to the county."

"The sword light formed a line. This person has superb swordsmanship. He should have used all his strength to cut out a line of sword light."

Zhou An lowered his head so that no one could see his expression at this moment.
