Archaeology is archaeology, why dig me up?

Chapter 21 Gu Lingchen, you're utterly arrogant!

"What happened?"

"Gu Lingchen, we received intelligence this afternoon that those strange people have reappeared in Nan County. Our police have dispatched special police officers to work with Captain Chu and his team to set up a tight net."

"I thought we could catch all the suspects in the 413 mummified corpse case."

"But just now, news came from Nanxian County."

"Those people are no ordinary people. They can use illusion magic and poison."

"The entire street was shrouded in a mysterious thick smoke. The special police suffered heavy casualties, and Captain Chu and her team members were also injured."

"While they split up to pursue them, Master Zhang was also injured."

"Captain Chu told me that you are the only one who can save them in Jiangzhou right now. Please save them."

"These guys have already harmed many young women in the past few months. Today we've alerted them. If we let them escape, it will be difficult to catch them again."

"They might move to another city and continue their crimes before long."

Upon hearing this, Su Qianxue stepped forward nervously and said, "Gu Lingchen, I saw the news about the 413 dried corpse case."

"One of my classmates has gone missing and hasn't been found yet."

"Okay, I understand."

"Qianxue, you go home first, I'll be right back."

"When I get back, we'll go to the Su family's house."

"Officer, could you please take my friend home and also send someone to protect her and her daughter?"

"What?"

"The Su family?"

"Gu Lingchen, are we going tonight?"

Su Qianxue's heart began to race. In Su Qianxue's memory, it seemed that she had never had a good day in the Su family since that woman appeared.

When Su Qianxue was less than ten years old, her father, Su Bainan, was even instigated by that woman to drive her and her mother out of the Su family.

From a wealthy heiress to a homeless dog overnight.

Su Bonan had never seen the mother and daughter before.

To this day, Su Qianxue still can't understand why her father, who loved her the most when she was a child, would change his personality so drastically in such a short time.

Sometimes Su Qianxue even suspected that the woman had drugged her father with some kind of drug.

"Yes, Chiyuki, don't forget what I told you."

"We must never be soft-hearted towards the enemy."

"If the problem isn't resolved thoroughly, they will only become more brazen in causing trouble for you and your mother."

"Gurgle~"

Lu Qianqian, standing to the side, swallowed hard. She didn't know Gu Lingchen, but at this moment, she truly felt a terrifying sense of oppression and killing intent emanating from him.

The Su family? The Su family from the north of the city?

Why did they provoke this god of death?

As the captain of the criminal investigation team, should I get involved in this matter?

Or should we send someone to notify them and let them run?

"No, no, that's not right."

"I'm a police officer."

"Gu Lingchen, aren't you being a little too dismissive of me?"

"You actually dared to say you wanted to cause trouble for the Su family right in front of me, and with such a strong murderous aura, what do you want?"

"Let me tell you, this is a society governed by law, so don't do anything reckless."

"Ha, a society governed by the rule of law?"

Gu Lingchen sneered, "Throughout history, the powerful and wealthy have always been high above others. Have they ever cared about the rule of law you speak of?"

"You don't dare to interfere, and you can't interfere."

"Isn't that right?"

"I, Gu Lingchen, never bully the weak, but I will never let go of any enemy who might harm those around me."

"I only trust my own fists."

"You... Gu Lingchen, you are absolutely arrogant."

"Sooner or later, you'll fall into my hands."

"What you said does make some sense, but if everyone were like you, what would be the point of having us police officers?"

Su Qianqian had never met someone as arrogant as Gu Lingchen before, and his words made her chest ache with anger.

"Arrogant?" Gu Lingchen sneered, "If you had my strength, you would be even more arrogant than me."

"If you keep nagging, you'll have to prepare to collect their corpses."

"Yes, yes, Gu Lingchen, I'm not arguing with you anymore."

"Go and rescue them quickly. I've arranged a helicopter for you. Don't worry, I'll send people to protect your friend and her family."

"Please, please go quickly."

"If the Dragon Shadow Guard dies in our Jiangzhou City, how can I, Lu Qianqian, face the citizens of Jiangzhou?"

"Our bureau chief would probably jump up and slap me."

"We won't need the helicopter."

"That thing is too slow."

"Qianxue, wait for me to come back."

After saying that, Gu Lingchen raised his hand and waved it. A spatial rift appeared in front of him. Under the horrified gazes of Lu Qianqian and Su Qianxue, Gu Lingchen took a step out and his figure disappeared without a trace.

Lu Qianqian felt her heart skip a beat.

What kind of tactic is this?

"Your name is Su Qianxue, right?"

"Perfect timing, I need to ask you some questions about the steel plant case in the western suburbs last night."

"Let's talk in the car."

……

Nanxian County is located 50 kilometers from Jiangzhou City. It is backed by the Nanshan Mountain Range and the entire city is surrounded by mountains.

It had just gotten dark, and logically, this should be the time when nightlife is just beginning.

Various square dances, roadside vendors.

The scenes that are common in other cities are nowhere to be found here.

Only a few cars occasionally sped by on the road.

Every household had its doors tightly shut and there were very few lights on.

In the northwest corner of the county town, a cloud of fog enveloped the entire street.

Not far away lies the boundless Nanshan mountain range.

Chu Yue and her team tracked them all the way here, cutting off the mysterious group's escape route. If they were allowed to infiltrate the Nanshan Mountains, it would be difficult to find them again.

Boom!

A loud bang echoed in an alley.

Zhang Tianshi and Chu Yue had separated. At this moment, Zhang Tianshi was fighting two men in black robes alone. The man in the lead was holding a black dragon-patterned cane.

Enveloped in mist, the two appeared and disappeared unpredictably, and Zhang Tianshi was already seriously injured in their hands.

The loud noise just now was from being hit hard and sent flying, coughing up blood.

"Cough cough cough cough, demons and monsters, you won't escape today."

Upon hearing this, the leading man in black robes stepped forward, looked at Zhang Tianshi, and sneered: "You stinking Taoist, how dare you interfere in the affairs of our Ghost Sect."

"Are you really tired of living?"

"You're not even a member of the Dragon Shadow Guard, why are you risking your life?"

"Cough cough cough, you scoundrel! Although I am not a formal member of the Dragon Shadow Guard, eliminating demons and protecting the righteous path is my lifelong wish."

"As long as I have a breath left, you will not escape."

"Hahaha, don't think I don't know you're waiting for reinforcements from the Dragon Shadow Guard."

"The main force of Kelong Shadow Guard is far away in Yanjing."

"Distant water cannot quench a fire nearby."

"Once we enter the Nanshan Mountains, we will scatter and flee. A few months later, we will return to other cities."

"What can the Dragon Shadow Guards do to me?"

"Alright, you damned ants, you've ruined our chance to taste the blood of a young girl today."

"In the name of the Ghost King, I declare you dead."

"Boom!"

After saying that, the old man in black robes struck Zhang Daqiang's chest heavily with his cane.

The two figures then disappeared into the mist.
