"I'll fucking... kill... you..."
Chen Ji's whole body tensed up and he roared like a wild beast.
Shen Yi simply slapped him in the face with his scabbard. There was a crisp "pa" sound, which stunned the other party.
"Pick up the knife and stand still. It's no use talking tough when you lose a fight. Do you have an old man to stand up for you?"
Looking at the sword being kicked towards him, Chen Ji was completely stunned.
The other party had already sheathed his knife and turned around, which meant that in Shen Yi's eyes, he posed no threat at all.
Chen Ji has always felt that he is the most hidden person in the entire government office. After a private conversation with the captain of the Demon Suppression Division, he has already surpassed many of his colleagues in terms of vision and strength.
The reason why he still had to endure the bullying at the hands of Shen Yi was simply because the time left for him to grow was too short.
But given time...
But the reality gave him a huge blow.
If I saw correctly just now, Shen Yi's seemingly casual movements clearly contained the flavor of the Demon-Subduing Sword Technique, and even the kind of perfection that had long been integrated into instinct and reached perfection.
The opponent's sword was faster and more powerful than mine, and he was more familiar with this martial art! That's why he could break his attack so easily.
"But... the captain of the Demon Suppression Division has only been teaching martial arts for three years. How could you have mastered it?"
Chen Ji picked up his sword and muttered to himself.
Shen Yi walked up to a group of officers who were lying limp on the ground and asked, "Where are the people?"
Zhang Dahu opened his mouth, but couldn't utter a complete sentence for a long time: "Everyone, everyone, everyone..."
The boss in our family is extremely good at drinking, playing finger-guessing games and sleeping with women, but when did he learn to play with a knife?
Shen Yi sighed and kicked him half a meter away: "Where is your person?"
There are really many things that my predecessor left for me.
It can be understood in this way that Shen Yi is like a broker, eating the salary of the government office and wholeheartedly solving the needs of various demons.
Unlike the group of dog demons under Huangpizi's command, they are so simple-minded that they have no other desire except to eat humans.
On the other side, there is a group of old apes who are craving for beauty and prefer women who have not yet grown up. However, they are cruel by nature. The women sent over by the previous incarnation were tortured to death within a few months. Therefore, the demand for them is very high.
This time, the demands of both sides conflict.
The previous incarnation had originally prepared six women for the old ape, all of whom were not yet of marriageable age, and one of them was the girl from the Liu family.
As a result, the Liu family was targeted by the dog demon again.
In desperation, the predecessor had to set his sights on Chen Ji's sister. Although she was a little over the age limit, she looked much better than those malnourished, skinny girls.
"What a beast."
Shen Yi shook his head, his eyes becoming much sharper.
He thought he had suffered a lot in his previous life and had seen through the fickleness of human nature, but it was not until he was in this chaotic world that he discovered that suffering also comes in different levels.
Zhang Dahu discovered that the boss was really angry, and was not just putting on a show for the kid named Chen.
He rubbed his abdomen, got up from the ground, and led the way for everyone swiftly.
Seeing this, Chen Ji followed anxiously.
After walking out of the government office and within two blocks, Zhang Dahu turned and entered a teahouse on the corner. In a vegetable field behind the toilet, there were several girls who were tied up tightly. They were covered in mud and breathing weakly, and it was obvious that they had been hungry for a long time.
"The old ladies in the brothel haven't had time to come over to dress them up yet, so they look a bit ugly. But they can still look good with a little makeup."
An officer came up to explain a few words, worried that the boss would dislike him and others for being lazy.
He was halfway through his words when Zhang Dahu pushed him away: "Boss, this is the indenture agreement with their parents' fingerprints. It's all here. They were born and raised by their parents. I feel bad for them, but there's really nothing I can do..."
Shen Yi took the stack of paper deeds, was silent for a moment, and said, "Go buy some rice, flour, salt, and some pork. Buy more, and quickly."
"Okay!" Zhang Dahu turned and left. He had followed Boss Shen for many years and knew very well that the other party was ruthless. The brothers who had doubts at the beginning ended up being eaten by the demon.
Don't ask any questions that you shouldn't ask.
"I said... buy."
Another cold reminder came from behind him. Zhang Dahu froze all over and turned around to meet Shen Yi's clear eyes. There was neither the previous cruelty nor any threat in them.
But for some reason, Zhang Dahu suddenly felt the urge to urinate, and his legs unconsciously clamped together: "I understand, I'll spend the money to buy it, don't worry."
Shen Yi looked forward again.
Chen Ji's face was gloomy, and he silently reached out to untie the rope on one of the girls.
As the saying goes, beauty lies in comparison.
Among this group of skinny and dark girls, Chen Jinyu's slender body looked weak, but she did not look malnourished. Even though she was covered in mud, her skin was still fair and delicate.
And because he was just captured, his face didn't look as weak as the others.
Her delicate facial features have a scholarly air and are somewhat charming.
With such beauty, it's no wonder that she was coveted by her predecessor.
Having a brother who is a police officer to take care of her, her life is easier than other girls.
Chen Ji gritted his teeth and helped his sister up to sit on a piece of bluestone. Under normal circumstances, if anyone dared to hurt this girl, he would definitely get angry and draw his sword to chop them.
But now, he just silently vented his anger in his palms.
"…"
Shen Yi retracted his gaze, squatted down and untied the other girls. As they stared in horror, he stroked their foreheads one by one with the back of his hand.
The weather has been cold recently, and it would be troublesome if you catch a cold.
Fortunately, they were lucky enough that they were just too hungry and thirsty, and nothing serious happened to them.
"Master Shen..." The youngest girl looked only twelve or thirteen years old, but her voice was trembling at this moment.
Shen Yi burst out laughing. Even such a young child knew about the bad reputation of his predecessor.
He wiped the mud off the other person's face with his thumb and patted the top of his head gently: "Take a rest, I'll take you home."
Soon, a group of officers returned carrying large and small bags.
Shen Yi stood up and glanced at Chen Ji, who was squatting there, clenching his palms tightly, wishing he could pierce his palms with his nails, and said helplessly: "It's almost done, the court is not dismissed yet."
After saying that, he walked out of the teahouse with a few maids.
"Everyone else, get back to the classroom. Put your things down and let him carry them."
Hearing this, Chen Ji almost laughed out of anger. You treat your sister like this, and you still dare to ask me to do hard labor for you?
Chen Jinyu looked dazed, biting her thin lips. Perhaps because she was a little older, she seemed a little calmer than the other girls who were panicking: "Brother, I'm fine, you go ahead and do your thing."
She knew her brother's temper best, and in this situation, even she would find it difficult to persuade him.
Therefore, she must not show panic, as this will not only fail to solve the problem, but will also cause more trouble.
"Hurry up, it will be dark if you delay any longer." Shen Yi's voice came from outside again.
The impolite words made Chen Jinyu's heart tighten, and there was a hint of worry in her eyes when she looked at Chen Ji.
What she didn't expect was that her brother stood up sullenly and actually stretched out his hands to carry the rice and flour on his body: "Follow me, I will take you home after the court is dismissed."
Seeing this, Chen Jinyu was slightly stunned, and then couldn't help but look outside, with curiosity in his eyes.
