A group of city guards stood outside the city lord's palace, each with a sword on their waist, looking at the shouting man with a wary expression.

The man looked to be in his forties, his gray clothes were a bit old, and his face was full of traces of vicissitudes of life.

Compared with the group of powerful city guards in front of him, he was as thin as a small boat on the sea, as if it would collapse if the wind blew, and not even the scum would be left.

Jiang Chu couldn't help but frowned.

How could he dare to go to the city lord's palace and shout with so many city guards when he was only one person? How brave he was.

"You can stop messing around. As I said, the person left as early as the afternoon before yesterday. What's the point of making trouble in front of the city lord's palace when you can't find the person yourself?"

The leader of the City Guards, the Captain of the City Guards, stood up and said that his clothes were the same style as the other City Guards, but there was an extra red border on the collar and wrists.

"It's obvious that you see my daughter's beauty, so you have undue thoughts towards her! My daughter has long said that you city guards don't look like good people. She must have noticed something!"

The man was very angry, his chest heaving rapidly, "She is a seller of wooden combs. She has done nothing wrong, but she was taken to the city lord's palace for interrogation. It has been three days since she came back, and you still said

No one was detained privately!"

After the man finished speaking, there was an uproar in the crowd.

"Why are the city guards like this?"

"That's right. I was selling a comb, but why did I bring it to the City Lord's Mansion?"

"Haha, the interrogation is fake. It's true that he got evil thoughts because of how pretty the little girl is."

"No way, isn't it said that the city guards are very strict in their military management? How could something like this happen?"

"What do you know? Tian's family has been carpenters for generations. Tian Lu makes tables, chairs and benches for people. Her daughter Tian Rui makes wooden combs. Her carving is exquisite... The most important thing is that she is beautiful!

"

"Hiss...do you really like her beauty?"

"Then what if? Captain Qi said that he had left long ago, but Tian Lu said that his daughter had not come back since she was taken away the day before yesterday. If this is false, then how could he dare to make trouble in front of the city lord's mansion?"

Jiang Chu listened to the whispers around him and was filled with doubts.

The city guards in each city on this continent are still very intimidating. They are under the direct jurisdiction of the city lord. It is said that every few years, the city guards in each city will collectively compete for rankings. They will be ranked based on their strength.

They are rated, which affects the resources they have access to and their personal salary.

Especially the city guards of Zhou Mansion are selected from thousands of people. Not to mention it is quite strict. Some people are eliminated and some are promoted every year.

This is not a job where you are just waiting to die, nor is it a job where you can sit back and relax and live a stable life after joining. Not only do you have to risk your life, but you also have to pay a lot.

It is also because of this that the atmosphere of the City Guards is still very good. Everyone works actively and rarely slacks off, and there are also some masters who come from bad backgrounds but work hard enough.

I have never heard of the city guards acting biasedly. If this is true today, then the city guards in Yuxiao City are not very good...

"Tian Rui was brought to the City Lord's Mansion for interrogation because there were some thieves in the city stealing in the middle of the night a few days ago. One of them stole the shop next door to her. It is reasonable for us to call her over for questioning." Captain Qi said nervously.

He frowned and said in a solemn voice, "We called the person here before lunch, and they left just after noon. She should have returned home or to the shop in the afternoon, so how could she be detained by us? Tian Carpenter, there are some things you should not mess up.

Said."

"My daughter is ill and hasn't been to the shop for a few days. What does the burglary of the house next door have to do with her? I was waiting at home on the day she was called away, but she didn't arrive after waiting for a whole day.

It was just yesterday that I came to ask. Your city guards told me to wait for news. I waited until today and finally came to ask for someone no longer." Veins appeared on Tian Lu's forehead, and he pointed with trembling hands.

Captain Qi, "Captain Qi, you have always had a good reputation. I don't doubt you, but should you ask the people below you carefully?"

Jiang Chu looked at Zhou Lu carefully and found that his anger and anxiety did not seem to be fake, and when he pointed at Captain Qi, his hands were restrained and restrained, which showed that he was still somewhat rational, otherwise he might have taken action directly.

Hit someone.

This is indeed the look of a father who cannot find his daughter.

She went to see Captain Qi again. Captain Qi's brows were furrowed. Although his voice was cold and solemn, he was not bullying others and his tone was calm.

It doesn’t look like you are trying to protect your subordinates...

This is quite interesting.

Jiang Chu glanced here, then returned to the carriage and picked up the fortune teller.

"Who called Tian Rui for questioning the day before yesterday?" After hearing this, Captain Qi looked at the subordinates around him.

"Captain, it's me." A tall and thin man took a step forward.

"Is the questioning process in compliance with the rules? When was the person released? Are you sure she left the city lord's mansion?" Captain Qi asked three questions in a row.

"It complied with the rules, and the records were complete. After questioning, I found out that she didn't know anything about it, so I let her go at the end of the day. At that time, I personally sent her out of the city lord's mansion to confirm that she had left."

Captain Qi looked at Tian Lu.

Tian Lu sneered, "He is one of yours, it's up to you to say whatever you want?"

Captain Qi also showed some anger, "Tian Carpenter, we have no reason to detain a businesswoman. From bringing her for questioning to letting her go, everything is in compliance with the rules. If a person disappears, it must be after she leaves the city lord's palace."

No, this is probably something that happened in the city. Please calm down and don't be biased against us. Otherwise, I will lead someone to help you search for Tian Rui in the city. If there are any results, I will notify you in time.

Do you like it?"

"Oh, stop being so pretentious. It's obviously you who are trying to get my daughter. She has been hidden by you for a long time. Are you looking for her? Even if you look for her for a year, you won't be able to find her!" Tian Lu roared.

"Stop talking nonsense!"

Captain Qi gritted his back teeth and unbearably pulled out his sword, "This is in the City Lord's Mansion, you are not allowed to act wild here!"

"I don't care whether I act wild or not, I just want to find my daughter! If you don't release my daughter soon, I will come here every day to make trouble, and I have to let the Lord of the City know! Let's see who of us can outlast the other!"

Tian Lu also said angrily.

His beloved wife passed away soon after giving birth to his daughter. He almost brought up her daughter, and she was his own life!
