“Letdidn’t reply and instead asked this question as he stared unblinkingly at Zhou Shu
“Superintendent Xiao? Of course” Zhou Shu said “I used to work at Superintendent Xiao’s 97th Workshop He waslooked straight into Zhou Shu’s eyes, only to see that his eyes were clear, without any signs of falseness
“Your previous boss? Why do I hear that there was so said
“It’s true Is that weird?” Zhou Shu asked “In the past, I was a Forging Apprentice, and he was the workshop superintendent What good feelings could a subordinate have for his boss? Isn’t it normal to hate him?”
Zhou Shu spokeApprentices often cursed the workshop superintendents behind their backs
It wasn’t just the Forging Division The other governhtforwardness stunned Yang Hong
That’s right In a place like the Forging Division workshops, how pleasant could the relationshi+p between apprentices and superintendents be?
No, I was alain Where were you last night?” Yang Hong asked ide eyes
“Last night?” Zhou Shu said hesitantly, “Can I not say it?”
“H snorted coldly “At our Divine Constable Bureau, it’s not up to you to decide whether to say so or not”
“This isto do with the Divine Constable Bureau, right?” Zhou Shu said
“Privatesneered “Zhou Shu, let me remind you that you’re a suspect now It’s best to answer !”
“Suspect? What did I do? Why an , but I’ve already returned it”
Yang Hong frowned and asked doubtfully, “What do you ue slip He hurriedly said, “Constable Yang, what are you suspecting about me? You should at least let me know”
“Don’t interruptWhat happened?” Yang Hong berated
“I just took someone else’s zither and played it, but I returned it afterward This isn’t considered stealing, right?” Zhou Shu whispered
“What nonsense!” Yang Hong said Thieves were not under the jurisdiction of their Divine Constable Bureau!
If it wasn’t for the fact that this murder involved a ranked martial artist, the Divine Constable Bureau wouldn’t be investigating it Ordinary murders were handled by the local authorities
Even if Zhou Shu really did steal so, he couldn’t be bothered
“Letsaid coldly
Zhou Shu looked around “Constable Yang, is this related to Superintendent Xiao? Is this an official interrogation?”
“Alared “If you don’t cooperate obediently, I’ll let you have a taste of the Divine Constable Bureau’s punish very cooperative?” Zhou Shu shrugged “Constable Yang, you said that I should return to the Divine Constable Bureau with you to cooperate with your investigation, and I followed you without saying anything

Zhou Shu changed fro
“Constable Yang, I, Zhou Shu, aate me, sure Get someone of sufficient status to come!”
Zhou Shu’s expression turned cold as he said, “If you don’t knoho to send, go ask Co was so angry that he laughed Who does he think our Divine Constable Bureau’s great co to insist on looking for Commander Ma He’s a Grand Crafts Apprentice Do you think you deserve to mention Commander Ma’s name?
Does Commander Ma have the ti Apprentice?
“Zhou Shu, see sneered
“A mere superintendent of a sreat? Ninth-rank officials can be found everywhere in the capital!
“I’ve been too kind to you! It seems like you won’t be honest unless you receive punishment from the Divine Constable Bureau!
“Since that’s the case, I’ll do as you wish!+” Yang Hong shouted loudly There were already constables preparing the torture tools
Zhou Shu’s eyes narrowed slightly “Constable Yang, you are abusing your authority If Commander Ma finds out, he won’t let you off Don’t bla s me? You’re still too inexperienced I’ll ask you one last tiht? What did you do? Do you have any witnesses?! Speak!”
