Chapter 736
I’m The Lanlord(12)
[side mission: help Du Gu Yi ascend to the throne.]
The retarded system suddenly pinged.
It probably knew that Shi Sheng was not in a good mood, so it shut down and went offline right after it announced the mission. It knew nothing.
Shi Sheng did not pause due to the system’s announcement. Instead, she continued approaching Sun and stabbed her under her incredulous gaze. The bailiffs did not have any reaction as everything was happening so fast.
They only reacted after Shi Sheng pulled out her sword.
She murdered someone in yamen!
The magistrate was already pissing himself out of terror, shaking while hiding under the table.
The magistrate did not take a stand. The others did not dare to make a decision as well. They could only gather around Shi Sheng.
Shi Sheng shook off the blood on her sword, looked at the bailiffs surrounding her and finally gazed at the magistrate who was cowering under the table.
Shi Sheng headed towards the magistrate.
“Stop her! Stop her!” The magistrate shouted from below.
Shi Sheng swung a few officials away and pulled the magistrate out from the table and pressed him against the table, with her iron sword resting on his neck, “now tell me, who bribed you?”
Damn it, there’s always retards out there trying to hurt me!
“I…I”, the magistrate could feel the chills on his neck. His heart was about to stop pumping, and his body was trembling incredibly. He could not form a complete sentence, “you…you…”
“Who?” Shi Shing smiled faintly, pressing the sword harder on his neck.
The magistrate felt the blade cut into his skin, and his brain was going to be separated from his neck in the next second.
His eyes rolled over, and he passed out on that spot when he thought about that scenario.
Shi Sheng,”…”
With his guts, he still wants to be a corrupted official?
In his face for being a county official only.
Shi Sheng slapped the magistrate twice to wake him up. The magistrate pissed his pants, and the pungent smell was all over the hall.
Shi Sheng let go of him out of disgust, took a few steps back, “I’ll ask this for the last time. Who bribed you? You’ll be like her if you don’t tell.”
Shi Sheng glanced over to the Sun’s corpse.
“I…I’ll tell… I’ll tell…” the magistrate fell limp to the ground and spoke in terror, “is He Qing, the eldest son of the He Family, he bribed me.”
He Qing …
She suspected him before and even asked someone to keep an eye on him, but other than he was absent-minded, he did not seem strange.
“What’s his end goal?”
The magistrate was about to cry, “he only asks me to lock you up in jail. He didn’t say anything else. It’s my fault, madam. I shouldn’t take his bribe. Please forgive me. I won’t do it anymore.”
The magistrate agreed to He Qing initially because He Qing promised that he would get Ruan’s Family heritance if she went into jail. He was blinded by the wealth and agreed with him.
Who knew that Miss Ruan was not some usual maiden. She was so tough until she could threaten the magistrate.
“Are you saying that He Qing killed Sun Er Gou?”
“I don’t know,” the magistrate shook his head, sniffled, “He Qing told us it’s time when we received the report.”
“You’ve been working with each other for a long time?” Shi Sheng gazed eerily at the magistrate.
The magistrate trembled and nodded. He Qing had been planning about this for quite some time. He asked him to take care of the verdict and don’t care about the others.
“Very well.”
Can’t believe there’s some retard planning to harm her for such a long time.
The magistrate was filled with chills, What’s so well about this?
