I am a cannon fodder, so what's wrong with grabbing an opportunity?

Nan Ke explored Xia Miao's dream, but he didn't get any extra details related to this incident.

Xie Zhiqiu looked at Nan Ke's originally sad face and then his sudden smile, and couldn't help but shiver.

Nan Ke opened his eyes and smiled, "This kid isn't that proud."

"Ok?"

Xie Zhiqiu asked a question and waited quietly for Nan Ke's next words.

"At first I was wondering why this guy didn't know other information about the Nightmare Beast. Now I understand that Xia Miao is not a member of the Xia family at all."

"Then who is he?" Xie Zhiqiu asked curiously.

Nan Ke raised his lips and uttered two words, "Qin Family."

The thought that subconsciously popped up in Xie Zhiqiu's mind was, "Real or fake young master?"

"It's about the same. It doesn't count."

This made Xie Zhiqiu anxious, "Hurry up and tell me, don't keep me in suspense."

"Xia Miao is a pawn planted by the Qin family, but he himself doesn't know it."

Nan Ke said this casually, but Xie Zhiqiu had already automatically imagined a lot of scenes in his mind.

The Xia family and the Qin family have always been at odds with each other, and Xia Miao himself was unaware of it. How young must he have been to be placed in the Xia family?

Even though the Xia family is now superior to the Qin family, if the two families really want to fight, Xia Miao knows the truth, which means he can only choose one between his biological father's family and his adoptive father's family.

"There is one more thing. Xia Miao didn't know that it was Xia Qiao who was in charge of the nightmare beast. Given his status in the Xia family, he shouldn't be completely unaware of it." Nan Ke added.

"Could it be that Xia Qiao knows Xia Miao's true identity and just wants to use him?"

No one knows what Xia Qiao is thinking. He often asks Xia Miao to parachute in to handle matters, but he doesn't even let Xia Miao know that the Nightmare Beast is in his hands.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Nan Ke prepared to leave and took Tie Yu and the other two with him.

Before leaving, he reminded Xie Zhiqiu: "Xia Miao has a lot of opinions about you and has said a lot of bad things about you to Xia Qiao. You should be careful."

"Don't worry." Xie Zhiqiu said and lay down on the ground, then got up again, looked at Xia Miao's posture, and adjusted it.

When Xia Miao woke up, he saw the place where he woke up and remembered the important matter.

Looking around, the first person he saw was Zhao Qiu, "Zhao Qiu, Zhao Qiu, wake up, wake up."

Xie Zhiqiu woke up dazedly and asked, "What's wrong?"

Xia Miao recalled what happened before he passed out, and quickly asked, "Did you see the Nightmare Beast and the three people from Tiezhuang?"

"I didn't see it." Xie Zhiqiu said casually, looking like he hadn't woken up yet.

Looking at Zhao Qiu like this, Xia Miao knew that he could no longer rely on her.

After checking the surroundings, I saw signs of a fight, dried blood scattered everywhere, a large pool of blood, and a heart not far away.

"This is simply a murderer." Xia Miao said angrily.

Xie Zhiqiu regained consciousness and walked over to him. "What murderer?"

"Here, this is a letter for you." Xie Zhiqiu handed Xia Miao an envelope.

Xia Miao took the envelope, looked at Xie Zhiqiu and asked, "Where did you get it?"

"It just fell off you."

Xia Miao opened the envelope and checked the contents:

"Xia Miao, I'll give you one day to bring the three bodies here. Otherwise, at the same time the day after tomorrow, any three people from the city guard will take their place."

"This is too much." Xia Miao crumpled the letter into a ball and threw it on the ground.

Zhao Qiu silently picked up the letter, unfolded it and read it, making two "tsk tsk" sounds.

"Fellow Daoist Xia, your city guard team's confidentiality work is not good enough." Xie Zhiqiu said sarcastically.

Xia Miao glared at Zhao Qiu and said, "Watch your mouth."

"It's not me who leaked the information, it's none of my business." Xie Zhiqiu knew that Xia Miao had a grudge against her, but when Nan Keming pointed it out, she was very unhappy.

"You..." Xia Miao was already unhappy, and was interrupted before he could finish his words.

"What do you mean by you? I'm not a member of your city guard. Manager Xia only said that we should cooperate, but he didn't say that I should be your subordinate."

Although what Zhao Qiu said was unpleasant to hear, it was the truth.

He blamed Xia Qiao again, why did she assign such a person to him, who knew nothing, only held him back, and whose words were so infuriating that they could not bear to death.

Xie Zhiqiu avoided Xia Miao and said, "Instead of sitting here and waiting to die, why not go back and see if there are any clues on those three people, otherwise someone will really die."

Xia Miao also knew that this was the only way out at this point.

Xie Zhiqiu followed Xia Miao and had no trouble in the city guards. Along the way, everyone they met was very respectful to Xia Miao.

This made Xie Zhiqiu even more curious as to why Xia Miao didn't know that Xia Qiao was the person in charge of the Nightmare Beast.

"Patrol Officer Xia, you're here." In front of the morgue, the guard saw Xia Miao and hurried to greet him.

Xia Miao simply said "hmm" in response.

The man led the two people into the morgue, with four pieces of white cloth in front of them.

"Patrol Officer Xia, these are the bodies of the three men and the beast. Please take care of them." After saying that, the man left.

Xie Zhiqiu was a little confused at first. Didn’t she remember that the three people were turned into pieces?

Xia Miao lifted the white cloth, and Xie Zhiqiu saw the stitched body. It was the first time he saw such a scene, and he was really shocked.

Quietly watching Xia Miao's next move.

Xia Miao went out and said something to the person guarding the door, then came back.

Xie Zhiqiu looked around the bodies and when no one was around, a wisp of black smoke slipped into A Zheng's body.

Xia Miao came back soon, and not long after, the man at the door came over with a nightmare beast.

Seeing the nightmare beast, Xie Zhiqiu's heart skipped a beat, and he asked calmly, "What are you doing?"

"Investigate the case." Xia Miao said concisely and clearly.

Xie Zhiqiu knew that Nan Ke could capture memories, but that was only for living people. He had never seen anyone explore the memories of the dead.

Xie Zhiqiu pretended to be ignorant and asked, "Can nightmare beasts still investigate cases?"

"Some nightmare beasts have the ability to explore past memories. Do you want to try it?" Xia Miao explained.

Xie Zhiqiu immediately refused, "That's not necessary. If it knows something it shouldn't know, and Manager Xia wants to kill it, then you'll be an accomplice."

Not only did he fail to scare Zhao Qiu, but he also let her blame him instead. Xia Miao felt very depressed, but there was nothing he could do.

But he had to maintain his image, so he had to endure it and said to the guard, "Go ahead."

The Nightmare Beast placed his hands on the corpse and examined it one by one.

When it was Zheng's turn, he was stunned for a moment, obviously not expecting to check his companion's past.

Seeing that the Nightmare Beast did not respond, the guard urged, "Hurry up, don't dawdle."

Xie Zhiqiu felt a little reluctant, and thinking of Nan Ke attached to Ah Zheng, he advised: "Why not forget it."

The guard obviously didn't buy Xie Zhiqiu's words, "Who do you think you are? Do you have the right to speak here?"

Xia Miao had no intention of stopping him, and the guard became more and more excited as he spoke.

"Who the hell are you? You really think you're a piece of cake. If you weren't Patrol Envoy Xia, would you be qualified to be in our city guard's important position? Don't you think about your own worth..."

Xie Zhiqiu was not one to be bullied, so he punched him directly, and his whole body was stuck in the wall.

Xie Zhiqiu was happy. He walked up to the man, flexed his wrist, and said, "Is my punch powerful enough?"

"Didn't your Inspector Xia tell you how heavy my fist is?"

The words were spoken to the guard, but actually meant for Xia Miao to hear.

"Zhao Qiu, don't go too far." Xia Miao shouted.

When the guard heard the name "Zhao Qiu", he reacted. He had also heard the rumor, which was the first version that was released.

He kind of regretted why he had to change shifts today.
