In response to the commander's question, Chi Mu paused for a few seconds and directly took out the hairpin given by the proprietress from his pocket.
Seeing the hairpin in his hand, the commander's eyes flashed with surprise.
"Oh? What position do you want? Recently, the higher the position in Jinyiwei, the more tired you are. Are you sure you want a higher position?"
"It doesn't matter. I just want to know what case you and the Inspector General are investigating, so that I can join in."
The proprietress's hairpin worked, and Chi Mu also expressed his needs directly.
Since this hairpin is the same as a pass, why beat around the bush?
The most important thing now is time. If you can save time, save it.
Otherwise, if the Supreme Angel investigates the case first and gets the account book, then everything will be bullshit.
"No problem..."
The commander nodded, thought for a moment, and began to tell Chi Mu the origin of the case.
"The largest brothel in Chang'an City, Hongchen Pavilion, is open during curfew. They collude with both insiders and outsiders to traffic young women from outside the city.
All the young women they trafficked in from outside were sent to Hongchen Pavilion to be courtesans.
According to my observation, these courtesans would basically only exist for about forty days before quietly disappearing and being replaced by new ones.
So far, only Yin Chun, a former courtesan, is living a normal life in Chang'an City, while the other courtesans are still missing. This is exactly what the inspectors and I are investigating.
First, we need to get the account book. The book contains the names and amounts of people who colluded with the Red Dust Pavilion and the Jinyiwei. We must catch the murderer behind the scenes!"
The commander looked serious, and his tone showed hatred for Hongchen Pavilion's behavior.
Although he doesn't look like the highest commander of the Jinyiwei, there is no doubt that he exudes an aura.
I have to say that the commander did a perfect job of hiding his identity.
Chi Mu already understood from the commander's description.
This corresponds to everything he had investigated before.
What the commander was investigating was that Hongchen Pavilion colluded with some Jinyiwei during the curfew to capture succubi from outside the city and bring them into Chang'an City.
Because after succubi become human, they are extremely beautiful, and they also emit a charming and enchanting fragrance that makes people fantasize.
As a result, Hongchen Pavilion’s business is getting better and better.
However, the courtesans can only maintain their human form for 49 days, which is consistent with the information the commander has investigated.
At the same time, he has investigated that among the courtesans, only Sister Yin is still active in Chang'an City after leaving Hongchen Pavilion, while the other courtesans have disappeared without a trace.
The whole case is to investigate the capture of the succubus and its sale to the Red Dust Pavilion.
"So, I know more than the commander... At least now I know the true identities of these courtesans, while the commander doesn't know that the courtesans are not actually human.
Now we just need to investigate the murderer behind all this, and we can get the copy!"
After saying this, Chi Mu also understood what the Supreme Angel did last night in Hongchen Pavilion.
The Supreme Angel had known about the case a long time ago. At that time, he happened to be investigating the Hongchen Pavilion to investigate the whereabouts of the missing courtesan.
One step ahead of Chi Mu, he got the truth about the courtesans on the negative first floor who turned back into succubus.
“So, it seems that he is not that far ahead of me, except that he knew what the case was before me.
Now that I know the case, the progress is actually about the same.”
Thinking of this, Chi Mu couldn't help but get excited and immediately said goodbye to the commander.
To investigate this matter, there is no need to get any higher position in the Imperial Guard.
Because all the Jinyiwei in the entire Chang'an City are qualified to investigate this matter.
As soon as I came out of Yang's house, I saw Bai Zhuo sitting on the steps, propping up his head and about to fall asleep.
"Let's go, now that we have sorted things out, let's go find the account book."
Bai Zhuo's eyes sparkled: "Ledger? You figured out where the ledger is in such a short time? You are worthy of being the Wood God!"
Chi Mu looked at him with a very strange look, thinking that it was a good thing that this kid was a boy. If he was a girl, and had been following him all the time, who knows what would happen if Yang Qu found out.
"It seems that in this instance, anyone of the opposite sex who speaks to me for more than ten sentences will die..."
Thinking back on the time when I participated in the ghost story copy, all the opposite sex I had special interactions with died a violent death.
"Stop being a bootlicker and use your brain."
Looking at Bai Zhuo, whose eyes were filled with clear stupidity, Chi Mu couldn't help but shake his head and sigh.
This weird story of randomly selecting the chosen one is really deadly.
Being able to choose such a thing in Longguo to complete the ghost story copy, if it weren’t for Chi Mu, it would be strange if he could complete this copy.
The most important thing is that there are very few strange rules and conflicts in this copy, so it is relatively safe.
Even if you don't understand anything, you won't die so soon.
In the previous copies of horror stories that were full of weirdness, Bai Zhuo had no idea how many times he had died.
"Yeah, I get it, Wood God. I won't be a bootlicker!"
"you....."
Seeing Bai Zhuo's unrepentant expression and the way he looked at him as if he were a god, he couldn't help but feel annoyed.
The more this kid behaves like this, the harder it is for him to be ruthless.
After giving up communicating with Bai Zhuo, Chi Mu walked towards Hongchen Pavilion again.
Now that we know the case and the transactions involved, it is very easy to find out the mastermind behind it.
This does not require any skillful means. All you need to do is find the man in red in Hongchen Pavilion last night and force him to reveal his superior.
Afterwards, the same trick was used again until the real top planner was found.
In this copy, except for the succubi who became the courtesans, the others are all ordinary people. How can they not be afraid of death?
If you want to threaten them, you just need to reveal the form of Quetzalcoatl in front of these people and scare them.
If you disobey, you will be killed!
"Sure enough, as long as the combat power is strong enough, it is entirely possible to clear the level."
With a sigh, he returned to Hongchen Pavilion without stopping.
When facing the prostitute who held his arm at the door of Hongchen Pavilion for the third time, Chi Mu was no longer surprised.
He pushed Bai Zhuo beside him into the arms of the prostitute.
"This is my little brother, go and serve him!"
