The mission was successfully completed. The main culprit Song Qianshi resisted stubbornly and was shot to death by Yue Lingyun.
Another main culprit, Steward Xu, lost the fight with Gan Xingfan and was thrown into a cell.
Zhang Zhongjie, the servant of the young master of the Pang family, was also arrested. No matter how much he pleaded, the fact that he assisted in human trafficking was already set in stone.
Moreover, Gan Xingfan was planning to use Zhang Zhongjie to extort money from the Pang family. Normally, Gan Xingfan wouldn't dare to provoke the Pang family, but this was without solid evidence.
It is rare to catch the Pang family revealing their true intentions, so Gan Xingfan, as the head of the town, will naturally not let him go.
The other servants were also temporarily detained, awaiting trial the next day.
As for the children in the mansion, Gan Xingfan temporarily sent them back to the Song Mansion and arranged for someone to stay at the Song family to look after the remaining Song family members and children.
Just when the matter was almost settled, Lin Tongxi and others returned to the government office.
Almost all the troops who were chasing Song Qian were injured, but fortunately there were no casualties.
Seeing Lin Tongxi's appearance, Gan Xingfan was also surprised, after all, there were so many blood stains on his clothes.
"Tongxi! Are you okay?" Gan Xingfan was originally sitting with his legs crossed, looking at the files, but when everyone came back, he saw Lin Tongxi's miserable condition.
"Cough... It's okay, I almost died. Fortunately, I have Chenxuan and the others." Lin Tongxi's speech has returned to normal, but he still feels pain in many parts of his body.
To be honest, fortunately Lin Tongxi was lucky enough, otherwise he would have died.
After Lin Tongxi upgraded to version 1.0, the system bead improved his [Physical Strengthening], and Lin Tongxi's combat power was raised from a fifth-grade martial artist to a ninth-grade warrior.
If not for this, with Lin Tongxi's previously weak body, if he were to be hit by Song Qianshi's attack, which could be said to be a ninth-grade martial arts master, Lin Tongxi would probably die on the spot.
"Brother, thank you for your hard work. I will report your contribution to my superiors truthfully." Gan Xingfan knew the role Lin Tongxi played in solving the case. If it weren't for him, the arrest operation would not have been so smooth.
"It's okay. We have to rely on General Gan's leadership and everyone's efforts, otherwise we wouldn't have achieved such a great result tonight."
Speaking of the results of the battle, Gan Xingfan thought of the escaped Song Qianshi and asked about his situation: "By the way, did you catch Song Qianshi?"
"Uh... he's dead. The situation is a bit complicated, so let someone else tell me. I was unconscious for a while." Lin Tongxi looked at the three people beside him.
Yue Lingyun and Song Qianshi were in the longest standoff on the field, so everyone started with Yue Lingyun and Chen Yunxuan, the head constable, supplemented it.
According to the two people's description, Song Qianshi, who was originally a first-grade warrior, greatly increased his strength after taking the medicine, and his strength was close to that of a ninth-grade martial artist.
"Sir Gan, according to my guess, the medicine Song Qianshi took might have come from the Xianhun Sect, and there may be records of it in relevant ancient books." Chen Yunxuan revealed the existence of the Xianhun Sect to Chen Yunxuan.
"What? The Soul-Sacrificing Sect?" Gan Xingfan was also surprised. Decades ago, the Soul-Sacrificing Sect had caused quite a stir, and its current power should not be underestimated. They can be seen in all the major capitals.
Gan Xingfan didn't expect that there would be people from the Soul-Sacrificing Sect in such a small town like Ruihe.
The matter of the Soul Offering Sect was of great importance. Gan Xingfan made a quick decision and wrote down the details about the sect. He then said to the four people in front of him, "I will explain this matter to Chengtian Academy. They have more experience in hunting down the Soul Offering Sect and are more suitable to conduct the investigation."
At this moment, Awei and Atao finally detained the suspect in this human trafficking case and walked out, yawning.
Gan Xingfan saw that everyone looked tired and realized that it was already late at night, so he asked everyone to go back and rest: "Okay, go back and have a good rest. We will study this matter in detail tomorrow."
After saying that, Lin Tongxi and others left the government office and returned to their residence.
Bai Wujiu, who stayed behind, couldn't sleep at all. When he heard the noise, he became alert and observed the environment outside.
Fortunately, he recognized the voices outside as belonging to Lin Tongxi and others. He felt relieved and ran out.
"Xiaojiu? Why haven't you slept yet?" Lin Tongxi asked in surprise. He glanced at Ding Xingshu. You know, it's already after midnight.
This time is not considered early in modern society, and it can barely be considered as the beginning of nightlife.
But for the ancients, this time should be the time when people fall into deep sleep.
"Well... I'm worried... I can't sleep." Bai Wujiu knew that Lin Tongxi was going to arrest the Song family, and he felt both excited and scared.
What excited him was that he finally didn't have to worry about the risk of the Song family coming to arrest him.
What he was afraid of was that Lin Tongxi and others were not able to defeat the head and housekeeper of the Song family. He had witnessed the abilities of the two and knew how terrifying they were.
Fortunately, the group of relatives who accepted me came back.
"Brother Tongxi... the blood on your body... are you okay?" Bai Wujiu noticed the bright color on Lin Tongxi's body.
"Don't worry, Xiaojiu, your brothers are here to protect me, so it's okay." Lin Tongxi snapped his fingers towards the three people behind him and smiled.
Su Ruoxue then argued, saying with a sullen look, "How can I be alright? I just took a hit from the Song family patriarch and nearly died."
"Tsk, Xichen, you shouldn't say that in front of a child." Lin Tongxi responded quickly.
"Ah..." Xiaojiu was surprised and felt a spontaneous admiration for Lin Tongxi.
There were several times when Xiaojiu saw the head of the Song family kill a servant with a single slap, as easy as crushing an ant.
