Chapter 43: ranger (1)
The man who appeared at the door looked to be in his late twenties.

He was not handsome, but he was not ugly either.

Ordinary, average talent.

His behavior was sloppy.

He carried a ruffian aura.

Perhaps it would have a unique attraction to a certain type of woman.

However, this obviously did not include Xue Qiaoqiao and Chu Qingwu.

Upon hearing his words, Chu Qingwu teased,”

“Yo, isn’t this our Young Master Qian?

After staying in the the Heaven on Earth Club for so long, you finally know how to go home?”

However, this Young Master Qian’s face was clearly far beyond ordinary people’s imagination.

Facing Chu Qingwu’s teasing, he spread his hands and said innocently,

“Didn’t I go to those places to handle cases?

In order to search for clues, I ventured deep into the tiger’s den and fought tenaciously just to obtain a glimmer of inspiration after the battle.

How many cases have I solved with this flash of inspiration? How many innocent people have you served justice for?

Even if we don’t mention this, I have contributed a lot of RMB to the country and supported a large number of flexible workers.

Why don’t you understand my good intentions?”

She saw his pained expression.

Everyone was speechless.

Are you addicted to acting?

Young Master Qian was also used to the crowd’s attitude.

He casually walked in and sat down beside Su Mo. He smiled and said,”

“This must be the awesome rookie in our team, right?

[sword saint] profession, this was really amazing.

Let me introduce myself. My name is Qian Tao, Tao as in Jiang He Hu Hai.

It can be considered the last piece of the puzzle in our team. profession is [ranger] and he is busy outside.”

“Hmm? Are there waves in the rivers, lakes, and seas?”

A hint of doubt flashed through Su Mo’s mind, but he also smiled and said,”

“I’ve long heard of your name. Hello, I’m Su Mo. Su as in Su Shi and Mo as in Mo Di.”

Qian Tao laughed and put his arm around his shoulder.

“Seeing that you’re a new junior in our team, if you encounter anything in the future, just come and find me.

Putting everything else aside, in terms of the standard of tracking cases and catching mistresses, if I were to say that I was second, no one in the entire Furong District would dare to say that they were first.

Of course, I’m actually better at something else.

I’ll treat you to a health care tomorrow and let you have a good look.”

As he spoke, he winked at Su Mo.

However, before Su Mo could respond.

Xue Qiaoqiao pulled him away and said warily,

“You better stay away from that guy. Be careful not to be led astray by him.

This guy’s misdeeds were too numerous to record.

If you don’t believe me, look at our Captain.

What a self-disciplined and upright person.

It was because this guy had left a record of punishment in the security bureau’s file.”

“Cough, cough, cough!”

Zhang Zhenyu, who was drinking tea, choked on the spot.

He couldn’t be bothered to wipe his mouth and hurriedly retorted,

“I’ve said it hundreds of times! I’m really going to investigate the case!”

“Heh, when you were investigating a case, how did you encounter a police officer sweeping you out?”

“What can we do? The suspect is right there! Ask Qian Tao if you don’t believe me!”

Everyone looked at Qian Tao. Qian Tao stared at the corner of the wall and said righteously,

“Captain Zhang is right! It was all because the suspect was too cunning!”

“Do you dare to turn around and say it?”

“It doesn’t affect my speech. I can testify that Captain Zhang was indeed wronged!”

Qian Tao’s back was facing the crowd. He clenched his right fist and waved it upwards.

Zhang Zhenyu heaved a sigh of relief. He tidied up his blue polka dot tie and said confidently,

“See, I told you it was a misunderstanding.”

Xue Qiaoqiao and Chu Qingwu looked at each other speechlessly.

Su Mo silently covered his face.

This was a classic case of helping people count money after being scammed.

” Cough,” Xu Liushuang coughed and spoke up for Zhang Zhenyu.” Let’s talk about business.””

Everyone sat upright.

Xu Liushuang looked at Qian Tao and asked,”

“How’s the investigation on the vampire going?”

Qian Tao changed his previous jumping around and replied solemnly,”

“According to the existing clues, I found a total of four related items. I marked them all.

Considering that Wang Linglan is now under our protection, there are only three left.

Yang Zhichao should be holding a promotion ceremony soon.

Then he would definitely use a related option.

The problem now is that we’re not sure which one he’s going to use.

If the three of them were to be gathered together for protection, Yang Zhichao would definitely not take the bait given his cautious and suspicious nature.

If they were to separate and target the three of them separately, Yang Zhichao might escape on the spot if there were too few people.

Therefore, I decided to conduct a more in-depth investigation to determine who Yang Zhichao would choose.

The advancement ceremony was so important that he would not choose anyone casually.

Even if there were only three of them, he would still have a priority in his heart.

And this order of priority would inevitably be reflected in reality, leaving behind some clues.

As long as we investigate the order and determine the candidate, we can set up an inescapable net and completely keep him here!”

Xu Liushuang thought for a moment and agreed with the plan.

“Each team has their own missions to deal with now, so they can’t spare any manpower to support you.

Yang Zhichao’s case can only be handed over to you. You must not let him escape.

You have to be as detailed as possible when investigating those three people.

He could not let innocent people be implicated and get involved in the case.”

“Understood!”

Qian Tao immediately replied seriously.

At this moment, Old Master Zhou, who had always been invisible, suddenly raised his hand and said,

“Deacon Xu, I might need to take a leave of absence.”

“Elder Zhou, please speak.”

“I want to hold a promotion ceremony.”

Hearing this, the meeting room fell silent for a moment.

After a few seconds, Xu Liushuang said hesitantly,”

“Elder Zhou, the advancement ceremony is not as safe as you think.”

Elder Zhou smiled and said,”

“This is the result of my careful consideration.

I naturally know how dangerous the advancement ritual is.

There had been many supernatural beings who had died in the advancement ceremony over the years.

Originally, at my age, any initiative would have been worn away.

So be it. Even if he broke through to Tier 4, his lifespan would not increase much.

Why go through so much trouble?

He might even lose himself.

There was no cost-performance ratio at all.

However, after experiencing the demon emperor’s descent, he was still a little worried.

I realized I couldn’t think like I used to.

If only I could become stronger.

Perhaps two fewer people would die on the battlefield.

They were all young and promising Extraordinaires.

He shouldn’t have fallen on the battlefield like this.

No matter how precious second-class merit was, it could not be exchanged for a family reunion.

Moreover, if I become a little stronger.

My son, daughter-in-law, my granddaughter, and even more unrelated ordinary people.

They could all live a safer life.

If not for that, why would I appear here at my age?”

Hearing this, everyone fell silent.

Zhang Zhenyu seemed to have fallen into some kind of wandering thoughts.

Chu Qingwu pursed her lips tightly as she held the cup tightly.

Xue Qiaoqiao looked down and felt a little guilty.

Qian Tao returned to his sloppy appearance.

Su Mo keenly sensed that everyone was deliberately avoiding the advancement ritual.

It seemed that they were not unable to advance, but they did not intend to advance at all.

What was going on?

After a moment of silence, Xu Liushuang slowly said,

“I understand your determination. Elder Zhou, please hand me the list of materials needed for the advancement later.

After the higher-ups pass the review, they will allocate the corresponding promotion materials for you.”

“Then I’ll have to trouble Deacon Xu.”

Old Master Zhou bowed slightly to express his gratitude.

After that, even after the meeting ended, the atmosphere in the room had not recovered.

As for Su Mo, he also received his own quest.
