Chapter 37
Chapter 37
The gray wolf who stole was brought back for interrogation.He didn't ask too many useful things, but instead pulled out a gang of habitual thieves active in Yuehua City from behind him.
It turned out that this gray wolf was originally a habitual thief in Yuehua City. Before he was caught, he was introduced by a colleague and got a deal: Someone offered him a high price of ten purple bone coins and hired him to steal the jade token on Yun Wuzhen's body. .
But he didn't even see the face of the person who hired him. The two traded in a small alley across the door. The other party paid him three purple bone coins in advance, and after the promise was fulfilled, he paid the remaining seven.
The other party didn't tell him that Yun Wu was really a little prince, but only said that it was ordinary brothers fighting for family property and needed the waist card as a token.
Stealing the jade token of the little prince is such a dangerous thing, but he only gave ten bone coins. Now this gray wolf deeply feels that he has been cheated by his peers. Colleagues also confessed.
The public security team followed the clues and arrested the accomplice who introduced him. After some torture, they still didn't find out the identity of the employer. However, they solved several theft cases in Wangcheng last year, and finally took out a group of theft organizations. According to the law of the environment, one person will be whipped ten times and sent to prison.
As a hero in catching the thief, Hang Shiqi, a member of the trainee security team, also made a contribution.
"This is for you." Ao Shun pulled out a black lasso: "This is the arrest rope equipped by the security guards."
"It is forbidden to use the animal shape on the streets of Yuehua City. Next time you see someone changing into a beast shape on the street, grab the end of the rope and throw the lock over it. It is blessed by the power of nature and will automatically lock the target , grab the opponent's neck, so that the opponent can't change back to human form. If you pull the rope again, he won't be able to escape."
Hang Shiqi took the noose over, and saw that it had a black circular lock on one side, a long chain lock on the other, and a handle at the end that could be held in the hand.
Hang Shiqi took the noose in his hand and looked at it again and again: "Isn't this just a dog leash?"
Ao Shun showed a disapproving expression, and said righteously: "Don't talk nonsense, this is a trapping rope, not a dog rope. There are many animal species in the northern border that are related to dogs, and each of them has outstanding abilities. Unity between species, don't discriminate against orcs with dog blood just because you are wolf blood."
Hang Shiqi opened his mouth: "I didn't mean that."
After all, I am also a dog.
"It's fine if you don't have one." Ao Shun saw that he didn't seem to be pretending, and his tone softened: "I don't think you should be that kind of person, but I'm just worried that you will be led astray after listening to someone's words. Young wolf-breed orcs discriminate against dog-breed orcs. For example, the chairman of the chamber of commerce now, obviously they are also mixed with Yunhu, but they look down on dog-breed orcs. Last year, dog-breed orcs were banned from entering some shops and restaurants under the jurisdiction of the chamber of commerce. But later, when the boss found out, he gave him a hard lesson."
"There is such a thing, how did you teach me a lesson?" Hang Shiqi himself is also a dog in animal form, and because of Chenxi's previous remarks, and the words of the president of the chamber of commerce during the dinner, he has a bad impression of the chamber of commerce, so he can't help but bring it into Dog breed orc side.
"At that time, dog-breed orcs wrote a joint letter and handed it to the palace because of discrimination, but the chairman of the chamber of commerce refused to apologize, and said that the strength of the northern border is respected, wolves are stronger than dogs, and dogs are inferior races. The boss said that since the chairman of the chamber of commerce looked down on Dog-breed orcs, let’s have an open arena. The Chamber of Commerce will send out ten people who support discrimination, and dog-breed orcs will also send out ten people who oppose it. One-on-one, whoever wins will be justified. The venue for the competition is Yuehua Square. The place where the previous wolf kings fought when they were replaced."
"Among the dog-breed orcs, there are also several races that are particularly good at fighting, such as the fighting dog race, the giant tooth race, etc. The hyena race was originally counted, but they have been expelled from the northern border because of their poor reputation. The top fighters sent by these races, No weaker than ordinary Frostwolves."
"As for the chamber of commerce, the defense team is not under the jurisdiction of the chamber of commerce, so it cannot be counted. Most of the other members are races that are good at business and not good at fighting. A few of them have a few frost wolves. Decline, the combat effectiveness has long been greatly reduced."
"Under the balance, this time the Fighting Chamber of Commerce failed miserably. Those who discriminated against the dog-breed orcs were swollen by the dog-breed orcs they looked down upon. Don't they think that the dog-breed orcs are not good? They are not as powerful as the wolf-breed orcs. What. In the end, they were beaten up on stage and begged for mercy, making the whole city laugh at them."
"Boss took advantage of the opportunity to abolish a lot of regulations of the Chamber of Commerce on discrimination against dog-breed orcs. Not only dog-breed orcs, but the group of chamber of commerce guys are also very hostile to female orcs and mixed-race orcs, but after this precedent, they at least On the surface, they are restrained a lot. Because whenever they show their signs, the gauntlet from the Female Orc Anti-Discrimination Federation and the Half-Blood Orc Protection Association will fly over."
Hang Shiqi was delighted to hear it.Recalling, he has also experienced discrimination. Before Chenxi opened his mouth: a mixed-race female orc, and closed his mouth: whoever loses will bark like a dog.He originally thought it was just Chenxi's dirty mouth and lack of quality, but he didn't expect that the brain damage was still inherited from his ancestors.
"I didn't expect Ao Wu to be very thoughtful sometimes. I thought that when he was managing the northern border, he would just scare people with a serious face."
"Boss is really a very powerful person." Complimenting Ao Wu, Ao Shun instantly put on a face of adoring fans: "The old wolf king is notoriously strict, and the boss is the only one who persisted to the end and defeated the old wolf king. The successor. And he is the youngest of the old wolf king's apprentices. He was only the one who succeeded. You don't know how much pressure he took when he took office. Although there is no doubt that he is the strongest, but in terms of power, he was young at the time, He has no family background, and his foothold is indeed not stable, so those old fritters can make things difficult for him."
Hang Shiqi thought, ah, he is one year younger than himself now.Speaking of which, Ao Wu is only in his early twenties now, and Mingming is not very old, but he has to act like a mature and stable adult. Even more distressed: "Where did the old wolf king go?"
Ao Shun: "Passed away. The old wolf king has brain disease, and some signs of forgetfulness appeared three years ago. He also felt that he was about to die, so he demanded so harshly from his apprentices, hoping that they would become successful as soon as possible. Take the burden from your own hands."
Hang Shiqi: "Is it because of this that Ao Wu succeeded the Wolf King at such a young age?"
Ao Shun nodded: "That's right, don't look at the youngest wolf king, it sounds superficial, but the pressure experienced by the boss is far greater than his predecessors. Although the high priest is very supportive of him, the elder There are always undercurrents in the chambers and chambers of commerce, and there are always people trying to make some small moves to bully the boss, the young and inexperienced, and want to take advantage of the opportunity."
"Ah." Hang Shiqi recalled what Ao Wu said about his fake marriage: "Is there someone plotting Ao Wu's marriage?"
Ao Shun: "This is natural. After all, the queen has the same status as the wolf king, and they are husband and wife. They can greatly influence the decision-making of the wolf king. When the wolf king is not around, she can even participate in politics on her behalf. If the queen comes from a certain force , that force will be able to control a great discourse power in the northern border. But don’t worry now, the boss has expressed his heart to you, and the high priest has also expressed his support. Those forces that want to move their minds can only be peaceful on."
Hang Shiqi nodded, heaved a sigh of relief, and thought to himself, it turned out that Ao Wu really pulled him as a shield because he was afraid of being arranged for a marriage.Then if he really needs a fake marriage in the future, maybe he can reluctantly cooperate.
When I returned to the palace at night and had dinner with Ao Wu, Hang Shiqi took the initiative to say: "I have figured it out, and I am willing to marry you! You have worked so hard, if I marry you to relieve you of some burden, I do!"
A bean that Ao Wu had just picked up fell back onto the plate with a grunt. Although he knew that Hang Shiqi's words were probably convulsions, he might be thinking about something in his little head.But I don't know why, but my heart skipped a few beats for no reason.
He let out a breath, put down his chopsticks, raised his head, and scrutinized Hang Shiqi up and down: "Who said anything to you?"
Hang Shiqi picked up the beans that Ao Wu had dropped and stuffed them into his mouth, pouted and said, "Ah, I just heard Ao Shun tell you something about your past, saying that you are very powerful, you are the wolf king, and you are better than me now." Still young."
Ao Wu's gaze moved to Hang Shiqi's lips involuntarily, and then quickly moved away: "Don't sympathize with me, being the wolf king is my own choice, holding one-seventh of the power in the mainland, I will not be bullied. Those guys who are arguing endlessly are at best troublesome."
"Then just pretend that I want to save you some trouble." Hang Shiqi felt that sometimes Ao Wu was too strong, and he refused to show weakness, which was not heart-warming at all.At this time, shouldn't he cry and chirp, act coquettishly, and then take the opportunity to raise conditions, wanting everything he wants?
"Okay, but we don't need it yet." Ao Wu said.
For him, Hang Shiqi's willingness to acquiesce in their relationship was enough to block those troubles.Since the other party has no feelings for him, he will not be selfish enough to take advantage of the other party's sympathy and tie the other party to him for a lifetime.That's despicable.
Three days passed calmly, and three days later, An Qing handed over the materials needed for Shujin to the other party in Wangxingzhai as promised.
Shujin flipped through the documents roughly, and found that some of the details matched what they had found in their own investigations. He saw that there was no problem with the authenticity of the documents, and immediately put on a friendly smile: "Mr. An is really reassuring in his work."
An Qing replied with a faint smile, "It's what An Qing should do."
Shujin put down the information: "When do you want to get the Yuanyu? To be honest, only the teacher can activate the teleportation formation. Mr. An, why not wait for this matter and go back to Nanxia with me to find the teacher?"
An Qing showed a bit of joy that was just right, as if she didn't know about Shujin's plan: "That would be the best."
The conversation still ended quickly.After all, neither side wants to be found to have any intersection with the other.
After An Qing came out, she told the shopkeeper: "Find someone to monitor them all day and report to me every day. Be careful not to be discovered."
The old shopkeeper didn't inquire about An Qing's plan, he only knew that An Qing was kind to him, and he spared no effort to do what An Qing ordered, that is, "Don't worry, Mr. An, I will definitely do what you ordered."
An Qing nodded: "Is the Frost Moon here?"
Shopkeeper: "Already here, waiting for you in the compartment on the top floor, please follow me."
Light-colored curtains are hung in the private room on the top floor, fluttering gently in the wind.Shuangyue sat near the window, from which she could see the direction of the palace from a distance.
After drinking a cup of tea, Shuangyue already had an impatient look on her face: "Why, does the unfavored eldest son of the third elder's family dare to leave me here?"
Today she received a message from An Qing, saying that she had a very important secret about Ao Wu to tell her.The other party was mysterious and didn't say what it was, but Shuangyue still couldn't help coming, even though Ao Wu had clearly rejected her, even though he had publicly admitted that the only person he liked was Hang Shiqi.
She didn't have a deep impression of An Qing.Although they are both females, the other party has ordinary looks, ordinary family background, and ordinary abilities. The only thing worthy of praise is probably that they have a sense of propriety in dealing with people.It's a pity that An Qing has such a father, he can only be a marriage instrument in this life.
Shuangyue has no sympathy for An Qing.Although a person's life is influenced by his family, he should not bear the brand of his family all his life.Shuang Yu had the same background as An Qing, but with her excellent inspiration, she became a candidate for the high priest and successfully got rid of her father's shadow.
Even if An Qing has no talent in inspiration, he can still resist in other places. He is now a member of the hunting team. If he insists on disobeying his father's arrangement, with Ao Wu around, no one can force him.To put it bluntly, he was too weak and resigned.
An Qing's sudden voice interrupted Shuangyue's thoughts.
"Master Shuangyue, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting." An Qing appeared on the top floor with a gentle smile as always.The voice is like a breeze, which can soothe the restlessness in people's hearts.
Shuangyue's face softened: "Tell me your secret, I'm very busy, I hope you won't let me make this trip in vain. But I doubt it, is there any secret about the boss that you know but I don't?"
"Master Shuangyue has been with His Royal Highness the Wolf King for three years, which is completely different from us newcomers." An Qing said: "But not only you, but His Royal Highness the Wolf King may not know about what I am going to say. I found out by chance."
Shuangyue frowned and urged: "If you want to talk about it, talk about it quickly, don't try to keep it to yourself."
An Qing took a sip of tea unhurriedly: "That's right, I found out that Hang Shiqi is an assassin sent by a secret organization to assassinate His Royal Highness the Wolf King. But he seems to have given up for some reason, and now the members of that organization are pretending to be merchants Lurking into Yuehua City, we are chasing him."
The teacup in Shuangyue's hand fell to the ground with a clatter, and she leaned over and grabbed An Qing's collar: "You said... what? What is Hang Shiqi?"
An Qing did not resist, and let Shuangyue almost lift him from the seat: "Killer, he is here to assassinate His Highness, you may find it hard to believe, after all, he has been pretending very well. But I guarantee my life, I They are telling the truth, if you don’t believe it, there is a way to prove it.”
