I have a knife, I can kill monsters when I take it out of its sheath

Chapter 85 Young and frivolous, old and prudent

Ji Chen came out of the county government office and went to the patrol department.

In the patrol department, Xing Gaoxi sat on a chair with a sad look on his face, playing with two walnuts in his hand. The detective under him had been put back by him to arrange household chores.

At the same time, he also sent a few people to the Demon Suppression Department to help clean up the yard. If the blood mud in the yard was allowed to be exposed, it might cause changes, encounter evil spirits, and even attract monsters.

As the chief arrester of Qinghe County, he had to take these into consideration.

However, Xing Gaoxi repeatedly told his men that except for cleaning the courtyard of the Demon Suppression Division, they were not allowed to enter anywhere else, especially the case library. Otherwise, ten Xing Gaoxi would not be able to protect them.

Xing Gaoxi is the only one left in the huge patrol department.

He deliberately emptied the patrol department because he was waiting for someone!

Suddenly, a figure shot out from the sky, and a young man in a green shirt appeared in the yard.

Xing Gaoxi looked at the young man in surprise.

He was not surprised that someone came to visit, because this was the person he was waiting for.

It's just that he was a little surprised by the young man's age. He was too young, less than ten years old.

It’s hard to imagine that the tragic scene in the Demon Suppression Division’s courtyard was left by such a young man?

The boy was naturally Ji Chen. As he walked towards Xing Gaoxi, he said, "Demon Suppression Department, Black Flag Suppression Ji Chen, I have met the chief arrester."

In a few steps, he walked across from Xing Gaoxi and sat down on an empty chair.

"There's no need for me to take out the Demon Suppression Card to prove my identity!"

Xing Gaoxi said: "No need, there is no one else but the Demon Suppression Department who dares to break into the Patrol Department so blatantly!"

Xing Gaoxi's words were sarcastic. After all, Ji Chen's temperament was the best proof that the people of the Demon Suppression Department had this kind of virtue, and he was used to it.

As long as the Demon Suppression Division breaks into the Patrol Division and doesn't make any big mistakes, such as breaking into important places such as the record library without permission, the problem is not that big. A simple suspicion of evil invasion can be used to stop the problem.

If the Patrol Division broke into the Demon Suppression Division and they really wanted to pursue the case seriously, that would be a huge problem.

Ji Chen looked at the empty patrol office and asked curiously: "You are not surprised by my appearance. Are you waiting for me?"

Xing Gaoxi smiled faintly, "Something happened to the Demon Suppression Department, one of the three major yamen in Qinghe County. If anyone wants to investigate the matter, they must go to the other two major yamen. If you go to the county government first, you will naturally not let go of the patrol department. "

Ji Chen said: "In that case, I won't beat around the bush. How much do you know about the Demon Suppression Department?"

Xing Gaoxi said: "Not much. I only know that Zhao Qiguan was originally from the Zhao Mansion. Later, a noble man came to the Zhao Mansion, and then something happened to the Demon Suppression Department. Neither you nor I can afford to offend that noble man. I once sent someone I went to Liangzhou City to report the news, but like a mud cow drowning in the sea, I only know so much."

Ji Chen glanced at Xing Gaoxi and said, "So, you choose to show off!"

Faced with Ji Chen's question, Xing Gaoxi did not explain, but simply said:

"When the world is turbid, being awake is a sin. The world is turbid like a torrent. It is already a lot of hardships to stand firm. In this era when ambition is hard to achieve and everything is hard to achieve, it is our best to keep a glimmer of light in our hearts. Go ahead, after all, I am not alone, I have a group of brothers behind me, and they also have their families. The Patrol Department is not the Demon Suppression Department. We face the monsters directly and overcome obstacles. We are only responsible for public security.

Ji Chen glanced at Xing Gaoxi again. He heard resentment from his words. It was nothing more than that he once had lofty ambitions, but his talents were not recognized. Now he chooses to let go. This profession is worthy of the court, so don't be too strict with him.

These words directly made Ji Chen laugh.

"Then why are you still occupying the position of chief catcher? There are so many unappreciated talents, but you are depriving yourself of the emperor's salary and not sharing your worries."

"The reason why most people in the world are unsuccessful is because they think too highly of themselves. Lord Buddha once gave people two bags, one to put their own mistakes and one to put the mistakes of others. Some people always like to put their own mistakes in them. Put the bag of mistakes behind you and put the bag of other people’s mistakes in front, so he can only see other people’s mistakes but not your own.”

Faced with Ji Chen's rebuke, Xing Gaoxi did not continue to refute.

He didn't intend to continue to struggle with this issue. He only expressed some resentment and dissatisfaction because Ji Chen said that he was a mess.

After all, there is a big age gap between the two. One is no longer confused, and the other has not passed the double ten years. This is the collision of new ideas and old ideas, and the competition between young people and the older generation. This has been a contradiction since ancient times.

Young and frivolous, old and prudent, this is nature. They are always in opposition, but they complement each other.

This is why in wars it is always the young who throw their lives and blood, while the old guys make plans behind the scenes.

If young people were to be cautious, the world would lose its vitality.

He envied Ji Chen's vitality, but disliked his passion and frivolity.

Xing Gaoxi has long passed the competitive age, so he does not dwell on this topic.

"One dusk morning, a young old man, armed with a sharp blunt knife, killed one of his closest enemies."

Ji Chen said something very contradictory, then stood up and prepared to leave.

In his opinion, Xing Gaoxi is old and his position should be given up to young people.

Since Xing Gaoxi has gained nothing here, there is little point in continuing the discussion, and the patrol department's strength will not be of much help to him.

Xing Gaoxi was silent. Perhaps only he could understand Ji Chen's very contradictory words. Just when Ji Chen was about to leave, he suddenly said something.

"This matter is of great concern. If you insist on investigating, it may involve many people and get out of hand. Have you ever thought that Qinghe County is only a hundred miles away from Liangzhou City. When such a big thing happened, why did Liangzhou City not respond at all? .”

Ji Chen was stunned for a moment, but Xing Gaoxi's words reminded him.

Liangzhou City is only a hundred miles away from Qinghe County, but there is no news about such a big thing happening in the Liangzhou Town Demon Division.

Moreover, there were so many experts from the Demon Division in Liangzhou Town, so why did they send themselves here?

Ji Chen's thoughts jumped rapidly, and he suddenly thought of one of the possibilities.

There is a problem with the Demon Division in Liangzhou Town, and Xie Anbing doesn't trust anyone.

As a newcomer and a black flag, he has a weak sense of presence. Even if he leaves the Demon Suppression Division for a long time, no one will pay special attention to him.

Xie Anbing intercepted the task of Heifeng Village and secretly handed it over to himself, apparently asking him to investigate Heifeng Village. His real purpose was Qinghe County.

There is a problem with the Liangzhou Town Demon Division. In other words, there is someone in the Liangzhou Town Demon Division who knows about the affairs of Qinghe County. This person's position is not low. He is at least a general bannerman, so he has the ability to intercept and block all news.
