46: Look, is that the one that is split in two your idol?

Jiangcheng Night Watch Division building.

The atmosphere today was exceptionally heavy.

At this moment, almost twenty days had passed since Wei Changfeng and the others lost contact.

Regarding this matter, the Inspector stationed in Jiangzhou City personally arrived to make trouble!

Everyone knew that the old woman had a grudge against Director Zhao.

It was hard to say that the other party wasn't using public office for personal revenge.

But there was no other way; a higher rank could crush someone, and even if you disagreed, you had to endure it.

In the Logistics Department, the old timers lowered their voices.

“Damn it, I knew the new guys weren't reliable. It's been so many days, and there's no news at all. We don't know if they're dead or alive.”

“Ah, Old Xu, don't say that. The bigger the storm, the more valuable the fish. With a reward of over a thousand contribution points, let alone the new guys, I almost signed up myself. Luckily, that Night Watcher was also new, so I hesitated.”

“Heh, I said it long ago, if Xie Jinyu doesn't dare to touch a mission, you guys should stop thinking about it. I think only Director Zhao can go personally. The higher-ups probably mean the same thing.”

“Xie Jinyu, Xie Jinyu, always Xie Jinyu. If he's so amazing, why don't you go follow him?!”

“You motherfucker...”

The Logistics Department immediately erupted into an argument.

Meanwhile, in the conference room, it was deathly silent.

The Assistant looked at the man and woman wearing Inspector badges on their chests, not daring to even breathe loudly.

The man, Li Yan, sat at the head of the conference table, his fingertips still lightly tapping on the table, but the rhythm was faster than before, as if he was suppressing surging anger.

The female Inspector beside him, Patrol Envoy Wang Lingling, wore the same black uniform. She was around thirty years old, with a fleshy face, and did not look like someone to be trifled with.

“Director Zhao,” Patrol Envoy Wang Lingling broke the silence first, her voice exceptionally strong, “All the Night Watchers in your Jiangcheng Night Watch Division have gone missing. Shouldn't you give an explanation?”

Zhao Qingge crossed her arms over her chest, not even raising her eyes, as if she didn't put the two of them in her sight at all: “I've already sent people to investigate. If you can wait, then wait. If you can't, please leave!”

“Wait?” Li Yan's face instantly darkened.

“Zhao Qingge, what do you mean?”

“As far as I know, you only sent a second-realm cannon fodder, right? A Director of a Division being so greedy and afraid of death!”

Li Yan slammed his hand on the table, the solid wood tabletop emitting a dull thud that made the enamel cups on the table tremble.

“Only you, Zhao Qingge, could do such a thing!”

Zhao Qingge finally looked up, her eyes as cold as frost: “Inspector Li, the personnel allocation of the Jiangcheng Night Watch Division is not for you to dictate.”

The atmosphere in the office solidified into ice. The Assistant's back was already soaked with cold sweat. She secretly looked up at Zhao Qingge.

As an Assistant, she knew better than anyone that Zhao Qingge was currently undergoing the Five Declines of Heaven and Man, and her aura was weakening day by day.

If not for this, with Zhao Qingge's personality, she would have long since slaughtered her way through the entire ruin.

The Assistant's mouth moved slightly, wanting to defend Zhao Qingge: “Director Zhao, she...”

“Shut up! When is it your turn to speak!” Patrol Envoy Wang Lingling brutally interrupted her, a sneer appearing on her lips: “You've learned to stand up for your master. What a pity, following such a life-cherishing master, no matter how loyal you are, it's useless.”

The Assistant's face instantly flushed red, but her tears stubbornly refused to fall.

Seeing this, the smile in Patrol Envoy Wang Lingling's eyes grew wider.

Zhao Qingge, I didn't expect you to have this day!

Both of them were graduates of the Imperial Capital Supernatural Academy.

At the Imperial Capital Supernatural Academy, Zhao Qingge was the center of attention, with outstanding talent and exceptional beauty, hailed as a goddess by those stinky men.

Patrol Envoy Wang Lingling, on the other hand, had an ordinary appearance and mediocre aptitude. She prided herself on being an independent woman and enjoyed boxing, and she couldn't stand self-righteous women like Zhao Qingge.

After graduation, everything changed.

Zhao Qingge was assigned to a small place like Jiangcheng, while Patrol Envoy Wang Lingling, using her family connections, was parachuted in as an Inspector for Jiangzhou City.

Two years ago, she had just trained her most valued newcomer into an obedient little lapdog, and now she had found an opportunity to make trouble for her again.

Satisfying! More satisfying than ever before!

Patrol Envoy Wang Lingling deliberately drew out her words, looking exactly like someone gloating over their success.

“Zhao Qingge, for the sake of our years of acquaintance, don't say I didn't help you. Three days, for the dozen or so missing Night Watchers, if alive, I want to see them, if dead...”

“Bang!”

The door to the conference room was suddenly pushed open.

Old Xu from the Logistics Department ran in, his face full of excitement: “Director Zhao! Inspector Wei... Inspector Wei and the others are back!”

These words were like a thunderbolt striking the office; everyone was stunned.

Patrol Envoy Wang Lingling's sneer hadn't had time to recede. She subconsciously looked at Li Yan, her eyes full of inquiry.

Li Yan's hand gripping the table suddenly tightened. As a Reincarnator, he knew Shi Hu's plan better than anyone.

The reason he accompanied this madwoman today was to see if he could force Zhao Qingge into the Mist Zone, to facilitate Shi Hu's subsequent plan.

However, the plan seemed to have gone awry!

Li Yan's face was incredibly grim.

Zhao Qingge's cold gaze swept over Li Yan's suddenly tense face, then fell back to Patrol Envoy Wang Lingling's expression, which was filled with shock. A barely perceptible curve appeared at the corner of her mouth.

“You brat, you really didn't disappoint me.”

...Wei Changfeng and the others were back.

Returning with them were a dozen piles of flesh, which, upon closer inspection, could barely be identified as the Nether race.

The old timers in the Logistics Department stared with wide eyes, as if an invisible hand had gripped their necks.

“Good heavens, did Inspector Wei and his team encounter a squad of the Nether race?”

A single Nether race member was enough to trouble a third-realm Night Watcher; a squad appearing could flatten half a town.

It was already a miracle that Wei Changfeng and his remnants could return alive, and they even managed to annihilate the entire opposing force?

“Xie Jinyu only killed three Nether race vanguards in the Blood Corpse Cave back then...” someone mumbled subconsciously, their voice full of disbelief.

Suddenly, a commotion erupted in the crowd, pointing at the corpse behind them: “Hey, stop bragging about Xie, quickly look! Is that split-in-half one your idol?!”

“Huh? Xie Jinyu!!!”

This exclamation was like lighting a powder keg; the people in the Logistics Department instantly exploded into chaos.

They followed the direction of that person's finger, only to see a corpse, split into two pieces, lying behind Wei Changfeng and the others.

The corpse wore the familiar black Night Watch Division uniform. Although its face was covered in blood and dirt,

those iconic sword-like eyebrows and tightly pursed thin lips made it instantly recognizable to anyone: this was Xie Jinyu, who was hailed as invincible below the fourth realm!

“No... impossible!” The person who had just been muttering about Xie Jinyu now had a pale face, staggering back a few steps, unable to believe his eyes.

“Jinyu!!!!”

Patrol Envoy Wang Lingling suddenly darted out, her face full of shock as she looked down at Xie Jinyu's corpse...
