"With such a large amount, have you ever doubted what they were using it for?" Lu Shaoyu threw the booklet on the official.
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty..." The official looked frightened and did not dare to answer.
Lu Shaoyu snorted coldly and strode towards the entrance of the cave.
After walking a few steps, he stopped, turned around and said, "You two, take him to the Metropolitan Procuratorate and wait until I come back to investigate."
There are more than 700 households of "dangerous residents" in the underground city. As long as they don't smash pots every day and fight with iron tools every day, they can't be consumed so quickly.
Judging from the records in the book, it was normal at the beginning. All the abnormalities started half a year ago. As the custody officer here, he had no doubts. Even if he was not bribed by them, it was dereliction of duty. It was still
Serious crimes must be punished.
After walking through the cave entrance for a while, I saw a dirty, dark, damp, and gloomy underground town in front of me.
More than 700 families have taken root and live here. It is not an exaggeration to say that this is an underground town.
There are also various shops on both sides of the street, but they all sell chicken, duck, fish and other food.
The residents here also raise their own fish, chickens, ducks, and fish, as well as sheep, cows, pigs, etc.
Up there, cattle cannot be sold privately, but here it seems like they can be slaughtered casually without complying with the rules above.
When Lu Shaoyu appeared with his men, he looked over with eyes.
The owners of those eyes are men, women, old people and children. However, no matter what status or age they are, their aura is similar, that is, they are vicious.
Even if they are only a few years old, their eyes have long lost their clarity, as if they are used to seeing all the darkness in the world.
"Sir, I am the chief clerk here. I wonder why you came to the dungeon?" A middle-aged man who was fairly well-dressed came forward.
"Master's register? Is there a master's register here?"
"There are a lot of things to deal with in the underground city. I was originally just a clerk in the Ministry of Punishment. For some reason, they were willing to give me some face, so they stayed here as the chief clerk."
"Then let me ask you, is there anything suspicious in the dungeon during this period?" Lu Shaoyu asked.
The middle-aged man was confused: "Everything is business as usual, there is nothing suspicious."
"Really? Then let my people search it." Lu Shaoyu waved his hand.
The dozens of good players behind him dispersed.
Those onlookers looked even more evil.
"I am investigating a case. The gangster sneaked into the underground city. I am worried about endangering everyone's safety, so I must catch this person. If you find anyone suspicious, you must report it." Lu Shaoyu looked childish, but that
The momentum was released, and these extremely vicious gangsters did not dare to act rashly.
Even though they held all kinds of murderous weapons in their hands, they looked at Lu Shaoyu with fierce eyes. However, such a young official must either be a genius or have a backer behind him.
Officers searched everywhere.
"Judging from the records in the book, you received a batch of iron tools this month. Where are they now?"
"Has been distributed to residents in need."
"Even if it is distributed, there will be records, right?"
"yes."
"Bring it to me and see."
The chief clerk went back to get the booklet and soon handed it into Lu Shaoyu's hands with a respectful attitude: "Sir, please take a look."
"Where are the previous records?"
"It rained heavily not long ago, and my house leaked and broke down."
"What a coincidence."
"Yeah yeah……"
The man in charge of the search came back and shook his head at Lu Shaoyu.
Lu Shaoyu was walking on the streets of the underground city holding the booklet.
"Sir, if you are done searching, then leave quickly! Our place is not for noble people like you. Be careful of getting into bad luck, which will be bad for your official career."
"Don't be afraid, I'm very evil." Lu Shaoyu said, "I think it's dinner time, so I'll stay here to eat today!"
The chief clerk said awkwardly: "Sir, our place is barren and I'm afraid we won't be able to provide good things for entertaining."
"Isn't that stall over there for barbecue? I'm going to treat my men to barbecue today." Lu Shaoyu said, took out a purse from his arms and put the purse on the table.
The beef vendor's eyes were bright.
"Your Excellency wants to take care of the business of the common people, so of course the common people will welcome you."
The underground city has not seen such a large amount of silver ingots in many years. For the sake of the money, the people in the underground city will not drive them away.
Lu Shaoyu brought too many people and there were not that many seats. So Lu Shaoyu and several squad leaders sat, while the other ordinary officers and soldiers stood.
"Sir, the roast beef skewers are here."
The boss sells beef skewers. When those beef skewers are served, there is a refreshing smell in the air.
"Is this beef?" Lu Shaoyu looked at the beef skewers.
"Of course, Sir, please try it quickly. You can't buy beef up here, but we also raise cattle here, and we can kill the beef here as we please."
"The underground city is also under the control of the imperial court. The imperial court said that cattle are not allowed to be slaughtered, and the underground city should also abide by the rules." Lu Shaoyu did not eat.
The officers and soldiers who were about to eat listened to Lu Shaoyu's words and put down the food in their mouths, not daring to eat any more.
"Sir, life here is hard, please have mercy and don't hold on to such trivial matters." The boss said flatteringly.
"Then change it to other meat." Lu Shaoyu said, "You don't have to abide by the rules. As a court official, of course I have to abide by the rules. Isn't there a pork shop across the street? Go buy some pork and grill some pork skewers."
"Hello!"
Half an hour later, there were several people lying on the barbecue stall and dozens of people lying on the ground.
Lu Shaoyu and his men who were eating barbecue here just now fell down.
"Huang Scorpion, you are so brave. Even officials would dare to drug you to death."
"If I don't stun him with medicine, can we escape? Now that he has found this place, we can't save it. I think this person is very cunning, and it is impossible to hide him like last time. We
Let’s go quickly!”
"Huang Scorpion is right, we can't stay here any longer. It just so happens that we used those children for an opportunity to surrender. This dog court is unfair to us, so of course we must choose a good master."
"Let's go, let's all go. Whoever wants to stay in this mouse hole stays, I will never stay there any longer."
"What should we do with this bitch and his thugs?"
"Let's escape for our lives first and don't cause too much trouble. This man looks very serious. If we kill him and completely anger the court, our chances of escaping will be slim."
All the residents of the underground city walked away in anger.
Not long after they left, everyone who had been unconscious got up one after another.
"Sir, how did you find out there was something wrong with the meat?"
"Do you know what kind of meat he got at the beginning?"
"Beef!" said one of the men.
"Drugated beef," said another.
Yi Jian held the sword with a stinky expression on his face and said in a very arrogant manner: "That's human flesh."
Everyone: "..."
vomit!!!
There was a sound of vomiting.
"You haven't eaten, why are you so scared?"
"I almost ate it just now. If you hadn't pushed me away, I would have eaten it long ago. Sir, the meat at the back is..."
"That's ordinary pork." Lu Shaoyu said, "Okay, let's go over and have a look. These rats must be preparing to burrow in the ground and escape. Rongsheng, go outside and send more people over."
