Martial Arts Assassin Master

Chapter 171 Suzhou Prefect ([-])

Zhao Fanxing immediately put his right palm on the opponent's back, urging the "Shenzhao Gong" to channel internal energy.

A soft zhenqi entered the arrester's body, quickly repairing his injuries.

The catcher was surprised and said: "Hero, your inner strength is like a spring breeze, thick and soft, really comforting."

Zhao Fanxing smiled embarrassingly: "Hurry up, brother, take those guys away, I have already tapped their acupoints, they can't move."

The policeman raised his hand and said, "Okay, may I ask the hero's name?"

He reported his family name: "I'm Zhao Fanxing."

The catcher opened his eyes wide and saluted respectfully: "It turns out to be Leader Zhao, the villain really has eyes but doesn't know Mount Tai."

Zhao Fanxing waved his hand: "You're welcome, big brother, I'm just a commoner in front of you, so you should call me young hero."

The catcher smiled and said, "Okay, Zhao Shaoxia, come with me, and we will bring these culprits to the magistrate's yamen."

Zhao Fanxing readily agreed.

Along the way, the policeman also told the ins and outs of the incident.

His name is Sun Boya, and he was originally a disciple of the Emei School, but because of his mediocre martial arts, he was unable to become a famous figure in the Jianghu, so he simply gave up the Jianghu and became a catcher.

However, the officialdom is dark.

In order to protect himself, Sun Boya has been living a life of turning a blind eye.

But he is a very conscientious person, so he is always blaming himself in his heart.

Until Murong Fei appeared.

The appointment of the new magistrate gave Sun Boya a chance to "be a man again". He began to arrest all kinds of criminals, brought them to justice, redressed the grievances of the people, and contributed to the court.

This time he arrested Situ Xiu, who was none other than Situ Lei's brother-in-law, Governor of Liangjiang.

Relying on this identity, Situ Xiu committed crimes and plundered from ordinary people's homes, leaving many innocent people penniless and their families ruined.

The previous prefects did not dare to take care of this matter.

But Murong Fei was different. Not only did he want to take care of it, but he also had to take care of it to the end.

Sun Boya received this order and came to arrest Situ Xiu.

Next is what Zhao Fanxing encountered before.

Half an hour later, the Yamen of Suzhou Prefecture.

Zhao Fanxing followed Sun Boya into the lobby.

In the lobby, a middle-aged official was busy at his desk.

He has dark skin, good facial features, and handles the official documents in his hands meticulously. His eyes seem to be burning with a ball of flame, and he is concentrating on it.

Sun Boya stepped forward, clasped his hands and said, "Report to Master Murong, the subordinates have brought the criminal here, please verify your identity, and take him into custody pending trial."

From the other party's tone, Zhao Fanxing has completely identified the other party's identity as Murong Fei.

At this time, Murong Fei raised his head and glanced at the thieves Zhao Fanxing and the others had captured.

After a while, he nodded with satisfaction: "Very well, Inspector Sun, you did a good job."

Situ Xiu who was arrested suddenly asked, "Murong Fei, do you know who I am?"

Murong Fei replied: "Of course I know, you are Master Situ's brother-in-law."

Situ Xiu asked again: "Since you know, you still dare to arrest me? You are not worthy of my brother-in-law dismissing you from office?"

Murong Fei said indifferently: "Whether I catch you or not, he will deal with me, you should be clear about this."

Situ Xiu started to laugh wildly: "Okay, Murong Fei, I'll wait for the day when you take off the government, and then, I will send these thugs under my command to beat you into a cripple!"

Murong Fei calmly said, "Put the prisoner in the cell!"

Seeing this scene, Zhao Fanxing thought to himself: "It seems that I have to find a way to assassinate Situ Lei. This guy has directly hit a bad luck, and he will lose his official position sooner or later."

Sun Boya also said at this time: "Yes, my lord."

After speaking, Situ Xiu was taken down.

Then, Sun Boya turned around and returned to Murong Fei, with a troubled expression on his face: "Master Murong, if Situ Lei removes your official position, what should you do?"

Murong Fei laughed: "I'm not afraid of being dismissed, I'm just afraid that I won't be able to punish the criminal."

Sun Boya nodded: "I understand, Lord Murong, the subordinates will do their best to help you."

At this moment, Murong Fei shifted his gaze to Zhao Fanxing: "Who are you?"

Sun Boya recounted the previous events.

Hearing this, Murong Fei was surprised at first, and then praised: "Young Xia Zhao, you people in Jiang Hu are really extraordinary, I admire you."

Then, he changed the subject: "Young Master Zhao, I have just arrived in Suzhou Mansion a few months ago, and it is time for me to hire people. If you are willing, can you help me?"

Zhao Fanxing agreed without hesitation: "No problem, Mr. Murong, I am willing to help."

Murong Fei said happily: "That's really great."

After speaking, he sent someone to arrange a room for Zhao Fanxing to live in.

Zhao Fanxing has since become a "man in the court" and served Murong Fei.

However, his mind is not here.

He was thinking about two things at this moment, first, would Shenying Palace send killers to assassinate Murong Fei?
Second, if Situ Lei wanted to remove Murong Fei from his official position, what method would he use?
After thinking about it, Zhao Fanxing decided to stay in Suzhou City temporarily to protect the safety of the target, and at the same time secretly investigate and find the undercover agent of Shenying Palace.

That night, Murong Fei also found him and arranged a very special mission for him.

I saw the Suzhou magistrate saying in a pleading tone: "Young Master Zhao, I have an unkind request, and I hope you will agree."

Zhao Fanxing was a little surprised and asked, "What's the matter, Master Murong?"

Murong Fei frowned, thought for a moment, and said, "That's right, I have always wanted to send someone to secretly investigate the collusion between officials and businessmen in the Suzhou government and the sale of private salt."

Zhao Fanxing suddenly realized; "So it is."

He also discovered that this Murong Fei, apart from being upright on the surface, is actually a courageous and resourceful person.

Zhao Fanxing asked: "Where does Lord Murong want me to investigate?"

Murong Fei took out a list from his pocket and handed it to him.

Zhao Fanxing looked down and found that there were three people written on it, namely Yanhu Tiger, Nangong Yu, and Zhou Huaimie.

Murong Fei added: "These three are suspected businessmen in Suzhou City. I hope you can help me investigate and find out who is selling illegal salt."

Zhao Fanxing suddenly realized: "Okay, Mr. Murong, leave this matter to me."

Murong Fei's eyes were filled with anticipation, and he cupped his hands in salute: "Then I would like to thank Zhao Shaoxia."

But he smiled calmly: "Mr. Murong, you're welcome. I'll leave now."

After finishing speaking, Zhao Fanxing performed lightness kung fu and left the magistrate's yamen.

The locations of the three targets are also shown on the mini-map.

They are not far from each other.

Zhao Fanxing also changed into night clothes, put on a mask, and performed light work, dodging around on the roof, flying towards the first target.
