Shen Huai was confident and uneasy, and went to inspect several other larger gambling houses.

This time period is when people are most sleepy, but the gambling house is a bustling scene. When the manager heard that Shen Huaixin was coming, he was startled and hurried out to greet him.

But Shen Huaixin didn't say anything when he came. He only looked and said nothing, which made people feel anxious and wondered what was going on.

After the inspection, it was already dawn. He had two huge dark circles under his eyes and felt a little dizzy while riding the horse. He simply walked back slowly and found a snack bar near the bombed gambling house to order breakfast.

Eating is not the key, and he has no appetite. He just wants to see if this incident will cause a sensation and minimize the impact.

Hearing that many people in the snack bar were talking about the explosion, he pricked up his ears and listened.

"Oh, last night, I was asleep, and suddenly I heard a loud bang, and my bed shook for a while!"

"Yes, yes, the windows of my house are making noises."

"My dogs are all barking, it's really scary."

After all, not many people mentioned gambling houses, so Shen Huaixin finally felt relieved.

As soon as he played it, I heard someone change the subject.

"Have you heard? This is no ordinary fire."

The speaker's tone was mysterious and mysterious, attracting everyone's attention.

"Really? What is that?"

"This..." the man said in a long, measured tone, "This is a punishment from God."

"What? God's punishment?"

Someone took over and said, "Yes, I think so. This is so strange. Whose house is on fire? According to my neighbor's distant cousin's sister-in-law's maiden sister, there is an acquaintance inside. It was like being struck by fire and lightning.”

The man nodded: "Yes, this is the thunderous thunder and the divine punishment! Everyone, have you ever heard of the God of War?"

Someone raised their hand: "I heard it. I heard it from my cousin who was running a business outside. He said that in the summer, the God of War reappeared in many places, and there was also a jingle! The God of War, the God of War, guarded the Nantianmen, and the divine energy descended from the sky. ! The golden-armored Martial God comes to the world with divine power!"

"Yes, that's right," the storyteller said meaningfully, "When the God of War appears in other places, it is also the thunder from the sky that clears the way to warn those evildoers, because they do evil, and even the law of heaven can't stand it."

His low voice made everyone's hearts skip a beat: "You know, that teahouse is actually not a teahouse at all, but a gambling house."

"What kind of place is a gambling house? It cultivates people's hearts to be greedy. They don't want to work, they just want to get something for nothing, and they even sell their children and daughters. Good people have become devils."

"Isn't this against the will of heaven and shouldn't it be punished by heaven?"

Everyone nodded in agreement.

Shen Huaixin was in a state of agitation when he heard the words, "God of War" and "God's Punishment". He ordered people to suppress the matter with great difficulty, but after a few words from this person, he started it up again, and even said something even more outrageous.

What the hell is this!

He slammed the table, causing the dishes and chopsticks to move.

The sound attracted other people, and some who knew him immediately stopped talking, returned to their seats and hurriedly lowered their heads to eat, while others pretended to have eaten, checked out, and left.

The person who said it was intentional blinked: "My dear friend, why are you angry? If you have any different opinions, please speak up and let's talk."

He didn't seem to recognize Shen Huaixin. He looked up and down carefully, frowned and said, "Hey, brother, he looks... quite familiar. Who is he?"

Shen Huaixin wanted to sign up, but he held himself back. This guy's mouth was so bad. He didn't know what to do. If he knew, he might say something.

Shen Huaixin snorted coldly, ignored him, threw a few coins and left.

As soon as he walked out of the door, the man lay on the window sill again: "Envoy Shen Cheng, are you Envoy Shen Cheng? If you have time, I will tell you another story."

Shen Huaixin was furious and whispered to his men: "Watch him and find an opportunity to pull out his tongue."

"Yes."

The men turned around and entered the store again, only to find that the person who was lying on the window sill just now was gone!

I quickly searched everywhere, but to no avail.

Feng Shaolian pulled off his hat and changed into his outer cloak as he walked, and snickered in the alley behind him: "If you want to catch me, you should be a little younger!"

Shen Huaixin returned to the house full of anger. Before he reached the door of the house, he saw many people surrounding him, including ordinary people and some wearing government officials' clothes.

His heart sank slightly. Could it be that he came because of what happened in the prison last night?

Then I thought about it again, and that's right. It's normal for the government officials to act and catch people when they lose the prisoners.

This also means that what happened last night has been accomplished.

Shen Huaixin's tense heart relaxed a little, and he was finally a little happy.

As soon as he arrived outside the crowd, someone shouted: "Envoy Shen Cheng is here!"

Everyone turned around and the crowd split apart. Shen Huaixin walked through the crowd and felt that there seemed to be something strange in the eyes of everyone.

He suppressed his suspicion and walked to the door, where he saw his butler arguing with several detectives.

The leading agent, whose surname was Zhao, was a good friend of Cui Chong. This time Cui Chong was injured and a brother died, making Agent Zhao very uncomfortable.

Therefore, he was not angry with the people in Shen's house, nor was he afraid of Shen Huaixin.

"Envoy Shen Cheng, you came at the right time. Please come with us."

Shen Huaixin laughed angrily: "What? Who are you?"

The housekeeper stepped forward and was about to say something, but Inspector Zhao took the lead and said, "My humble position is that of an agent from the Yamen of the Governor's Office. My surname is Zhao. I am here because of the robbery of a prisoner in the prison."

"The murderer is vicious and cruel. He kills without blinking an eye. He is also a foreigner. Ambassador Shen Cheng must have heard of this person."

Shen Huaixin frowned: "I didn't know that a small policeman could come to summon me."

"It's not a rude summons," Agent Zhao took out the document, "The document and the seal are all there, and there is also evidence."

Shen Huaixin asked subconsciously: "What evidence?"

In the carriage at the corner of the road, Yan Ruyu leaned on the pillow, lifted the curtain, and looked out through the gap. This angle was just right for watching a show.

After the buzzer reported the news and left, Shen Huaixin came back angrily. There was still greater depression waiting for him here.

Yan Ruyu took the hot chestnuts peeled by Huo Changhe and said, "Envoy Shen Cheng doesn't look good."

Huo Changhe chuckled: "Look? It'll be good if he doesn't get angry to death in a while."

Yan Ruyu glanced at the other road: "When will Governor Cao arrive?"

"According to the time, it should be soon. Governor Cao has gained a lot of prestige in the city this time because of the food issue. Many people say that he is a good official who loves the people like his own son. If there is another rumor that he has been raped by bad people, The people will definitely not agree to the injury."

Yan Ruyu nodded: "Investor Cao has suffered."

Thinking about it, Governor Cao was fat and chubby. He must have never suffered any hardships or suffered any sins, and his oily skin had not even been broken.

This time it's a waste of money.

While they were talking in a low voice, Shen Huaixin over there was already furious.

"That's nonsense. You have lost prisoners in your prison. It is your prison that belongs to you. You, the governor, are responsible. What does this envoy have to do with you!"
