Chapter 144 Your circle is so chaotic
After the drainage system collapsed, Director He also changed his attitude.
Because cleaning up collapsed sewers is a huge project, if the collapsed sewers do not cause sewage blockage, the government will have no motivation to do it.
Director He has submitted the report on sewer cleaning, but it has not been approved because it involves too much manpower and material resources.
By the time the procedures are completed, it will probably be delayed until next year.
After all, Director He is an official of the Demon Hunting System, not an official of the administrative system, and his status is not very high, so he cannot promote this matter.
So he had to give up the plan to solve the mysterious liquid as soon as possible and could only put this matter aside for the time being.
Only Ruan Qingsha never gave up and was still investigating in secret, but even her investigation came to a standstill.
Apart from Yue Hong, there was no other suspect, but Yue Hong was too self-disciplined and could not find a breakthrough.
In desperation, Ruan Qingsha could only tell this matter to her teacher Zhao Nanxing.
Zhao Nanxing expressed support for Ruan Qingsha's investigation, but it was only verbal support.
Because Zhao Nanxing's status was too high, her every move would be interpreted as having political implications, and she would be unable to provide any substantial help unless Ruan Qingsha really found out something.
In the air-conditioned office, Ruan Qingsha still unbuttoned the collar of her clothes, revealing a hint of snow-white skin.
There was a notebook in front of her, scribbled with her pen, showing her current depressed mood and confused thinking.
There was a sudden knock on the door. Ruan Qingsha fastened her collar and said, "Come in."
The young assistant pushed the door open and placed a document in front of Ruan Qingsha.
"Captain, this is the daily report you asked me to pay attention to earlier. I have selected it for you."
The Public Security Bureau is responsible for all incidents related to demons, monsters, and people with special abilities. In places like Tailing City, the Public Security Bureau will usually take action only after demons or other people with special abilities create trouble.
As the capital of Hanyun Prefecture, the Public Security Bureau not only cracks down on such incidents, but also takes preventive measures to nip the danger in the bud.
Therefore, the General Administration usually collects all abnormal information from the entire state, as well as a large number of reports from citizens, and compiles them into daily reports. Experienced demon hunters then make judgments on these abnormal information.
Often, we can get some important clues from the traces.
The previous disappearances caused by the mysterious liquid were discovered by the demon hunters from the daily reports.
……
Ruan Qingsha picked up the daily report in front of her and asked her assistant to make her a cup of coffee so that she could drink it while reading.
While watching, I was hesitating in my heart whether I should lower my requirements and find myself some helpers.
In addition to hiring external employees, high-level demon hunters like her can also choose their own team members from among the elite demon hunters, up to five.
Ruan Qingsha once had a five-member team, but it was disbanded two years ago. All the teammates went their separate ways, and it is unrealistic to get them back now.
Since she came back from Tailing City, the Public Security Bureau has arranged some demon hunters for her, but she thinks these demon hunters are all ugly, so she has never accepted them.
Although I am quite free, I have to do everything by myself. Now I even have to read the reports myself.
Suddenly, a piece of news in the report attracted Ruan Qingsha's attention.
In a place called Sunshine Garden, abnormal vibrations occurred underground.
After the police organized people to investigate, they found casualties and discovered a huge hole in the sewer and traces of demons.
Sewer and demon, these two keywords immediately caught Ruan Qingsha's attention.
After all, the incident of the mysterious liquid that she was investigating recently was related to the sewers and demons.
It just so happened that Ruan Qingsha couldn't find any breakthrough from Yue Hong recently. After thinking about it, she decided to try her luck in the Sunshine Garden Community.
She drank the coffee in the cup in one gulp, stood up, picked up the white windbreaker hanging on the hanger, and walked out.
In another office, Yue Hong was reviewing some documents, while Lu Jiayu was sitting next to him, reading the contents of the daily report for him.
Yue Hong stared at the computer screen in front of him, seemingly working very attentively, but in fact he was slightly distracted.
"team leader?"
Lu Jiayu had been quietly looking at Yue Hong, and after hesitating for a few seconds, she asked, "Have you been worried about anything recently?"
Yue Hong came back to his senses and shook his head: "No, why do you ask?"
"Then why didn't you come when I asked you to go out with me recently?"
In front of these trusted subordinates, Yue Hong did not put on airs and would occasionally go out with them for entertainment and relaxation.
But recently Yue Hong has been too self-disciplined. Apart from going to get off work and coming home every day, he spends time in the gym.
Yue Hong smiled faintly: "Nothing, just that you need to change your lifestyle occasionally."
Only Yue Hong himself knew that the reason why he suddenly became self-disciplined was because he was worried that someone was watching him secretly.
Last time he released a rat demon into the sewer, but the rat demon was killed by someone. Since then, Yue Hong has been worried that his actions would be discovered by the person who killed the demon.
He suspected that the man was Shen Cheng, but Shen Cheng had not appeared since the last time, and Yue Hong did not dare to investigate the other party rashly, for fear of being as smart as that rat.
So he has been maintaining self-discipline recently, not doing anything unnecessary, and using calmness to avoid being caught by others.
However, his frightened look aroused the suspicion of his subordinates.
Seeing that Lu Jiayu seemed to want to continue asking questions, Yue Hong forcibly changed the subject: "Where were you reading just now?"
Lu Jiayu quickly looked at the daily report in her hand: "I've read this one. It's about something that happened in Sunshine Garden Community..."
Like Ruan Qingsha, Yue Hong was immediately attracted by the news after hearing it, especially the two key words "sewer" and "demon".
He thought for a moment and then asked, "Who else has been reading this daily report recently?"
Lu Jiayu knew who Yue Hong was asking about, and replied in a low voice: "Ruan Qingsha has been asking her assistant to collect these things recently."
Yue Hong frowned and thought for a moment, then suddenly stood up and walked out, saying to Lu Jiayu, "Let Nie Chuan meet me in this community."
……
Ruan Qingsha had already arrived outside the Sunshine Garden community and found that the residents were being dispersed. Many residents were leaving with their families, and the entire community was blocked off with three layers of defense inside and outside.
This is a very normal treatment because there is now a huge cavity under the community, and there are strong vibrations from time to time, and no one knows when it will collapse.
However, the people who sealed off the community were the people Ruan Qingsha least wanted to see - the Supervisory Department!
The Ministry of Supervision was originally an independent agency focusing on internal government affairs, but in recent years, the power of this department has been expanding rapidly, extending its tentacles into places that do not originally belong to it.
Seeing the people from the Supervision Department, Ruan Qingsha's face looked a little ugly. Two years ago, she was forced to leave the state capital because of the intervention of the Supervision Department.
Faced with the powerful Supervisory Department, even her teacher Zhao Nanxing had to make concessions. After returning to the state capital, Ruan Qingsha heard from her assistant that the Supervisory Department had even set up a special department to deal with abnormal incidents, which was already encroaching on the rights of the Public Security Bureau. Ruan Qingsha didn't know why the Demon Hunters' top brass didn't respond to this.
After stopping the car, Ruan Qingsha thought for a moment, got out of the car and walked towards the blocked gate of the community.
A uniformed inspector immediately reached out to stop her.
"Sorry, this place has been blocked. No one is allowed in."
Ruan Qingsha took out her ID and said to him, "Get out of the way."
Seeing the name on the ID, the inspector obviously recognized who Ruan Qingsha was. After all, the Valkyrie of the General Security Bureau was also quite famous in the Inspection Department.
Thinking of Ruan Qingsha's past deeds, the inspector's heartbeat accelerated, but he still said with a stiff upper lip: "The accident site has been taken over by our Supervision Department. If you want to go in, please apply for an investigation permit from the relevant department."
Ruan Qingsha stared at him, a dangerous light flashing in her eyes.
After coming back this time, although the teacher has warned her not to cause trouble again, otherwise she will be thrown into the mountains and forests next time, but simply beating up a few minions should be no problem.
The person standing in front of Ruan Qingsha suddenly felt like a prey being targeted by a predator.
His body instantly stiffened and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
Just when he was frightened to the point of almost stepping back, a mocking voice suddenly sounded.
"I was wondering who it was. Isn't this the stray dog that ran away from the state capital in disgrace two years ago?"
When this voice sounded, the inspector, who was already sweating profusely, was almost frightened to death because he found that Ruan Qingsha's eyes in front of him suddenly became extremely terrifying.
Ruan Qingsha slowly turned around and saw a woman in uniform standing behind her.
This is a short-haired woman, wearing a neat uniform of the Supervisory Department. Her beautiful appearance cannot be ignored, but there is a hint of meanness between her eyebrows.
She has an upright posture, with the corners of her mouth slightly raised, showing a sense of confidence and disdain, which makes her temperament seem domineering and exudes an aura that makes people dare not approach her easily.
"Liang Jie!"
Ruan Qingsha uttered the woman's name coldly without a trace of warmth.
Two years ago, it was Liang Jie who led the investigation team of the Supervision Department to launch a series of investigations against her, which eventually forced her to leave the state capital.
"Are you going to force your way in? You are still so willful and reckless."
Liang Jie walked over slowly and said, "It seems that you haven't learned your lesson in the past two years since leaving the state capital."
Ruan Qingsha sneered: "You haven't learned your lesson yet, and you still dare to get so close to me. Believe it or not, I will beat you into a pig's head like I did two years ago."
"Of course I believe it."
A haze flashed across Liang Jie's eyes: "Then you should also believe that if I can make you get out of the state capital, I can make you get out a second time."
The two sides confronted each other, and there seemed to be flashes of lightning between their eyes.
The nearby inspectors were so scared that they stayed away and didn't dare to get close.
"Qingsha, don't be impulsive."
At this time, Yue Hong finally arrived with his men.
Seeing that Ruan Qingsha and Liang Jie were about to fight, he quickly spoke out to stop them.
But neither Ruan Qingsha nor Liang Jie even looked at him, they just stared at each other.
Ruan Qingsha suddenly said, "That kid Zhao Zonghan has been sending me flowers since I came back. I can't stop him."
Liang Jie's expression suddenly changed, and his eyes became sharp and fierce.
A sense of low pressure emerged from her, hanging over the hearts of everyone nearby.
Nie Chuan, who was following Yue Hong, subconsciously took a step back, not daring to get too close, lest the fire at the city gate affect innocent people.
He was fully aware of the grudges and hatreds among this group of young elites in the state capital.
Zhao Zonghan and Liang Jie both come from prominent families in the supervisory system. They have known each other since childhood. Liang Jie has always been in love with Zhao Zonghan and has repeatedly stated to the public that Zhao Zonghan is her future husband.
However, Zhao Zonghan met Ruan Qingsha by chance during a conflict between the Supervisory Department and the General Security Bureau, and was beaten up by her.
As a result, Zhao Zonghan fell in love with Ruan Qingsha at first sight and began to pursue her passionately.
As expected, Liang Jie was full of hostility towards Ruan Qingsha, the woman who suddenly appeared. In the past, relying on her family background and her own talents and abilities, she was always successful in dealing with any love rivals.
However, Ruan Qingsha's background is no worse than hers, and her strength is even stronger than hers. The two sides have had conflicts and contradictions many times, and Ruan Qingsha has always had the upper hand.
It was not until two years ago that Ruan Qingsha finally got into big trouble because of her temper. Liang Jie took the opportunity to mobilize his forces and drove Ruan Qingsha out of the state capital.
However, Zhao Zonghan did not change his mind. Instead, he publicly stated that he would wait for Ruan Qingsha to come back, and said that he did not like women with short hair.
Now that Ruan Qingsha brought up the matter of Zhao Zonghan sending her flowers, it was like a poke in Liang Jie's lungs.
Liang Jie's forehead was faintly bulging with blue veins, and he directly began to attack her personally: "Zhao Zonghan is also blind, to actually fall for a woman like you who seduces men everywhere."
Yue Hong couldn't bear it any longer: "Liang Jie, take back what you said."
Ruan Qingsha looked indifferent: "That's because I'm very charming, unlike you. Even Zhao Zonghan, who I don't like, doesn't like you. You are two levels lower than me."
Everyone present seemed to be able to hear the sound of Liang Jie gnashing his teeth.
In every verbal confrontation like this, Ruan Qingsha always has the upper hand because she has no weaknesses, while Liang Jie has Zhao Zonghan as his soft spot.
"Alas, it is a sin to make you quarrel over me."
A helpless voice sounded, and Zhao Zonghan appeared beside everyone without anyone noticing.
He was still wearing his flashy green suit and even had a rose in his mouth.
Unfortunately, apart from attracting the attention of his love rival Yue Hong, his appearance did not attract the attention of either Ruan Qingsha or Liang Jie. He received the same treatment as Yue Hong.
Ruan Qingsha glanced at the Sunshine Garden Community and said to Liang Jie, "I am a senior demon hunter from the Public Security Bureau. I have the right to enter and investigate demon-related incidents. Please get out of the way."
"This place has been taken over by the Supervision Department. It is not your turn to intervene."
Liang Jie refused very firmly: "Want to go in? Wait until we finish the investigation."
As soon as she finished speaking, Zhao Zonghan interrupted: "Qingsha, do you want to go in? I can take you in."
The previous chapter was blocked. I am looking for an editor to unblock it. I don’t know if it can be unblocked.
