Chapter 8777
8777 Chapter 8776-
The relay station was close to the inspection department. In order to show their respect, the inspection department also sent a team of guards to the relay station.
There weren’t many of them, only six, but it was a sign of respect to the inspectors of the various continents.
If something happened and this small team of guards couldn’t handle it, the inspection department was right next to them, and they could send more guards to help at any time.
Fang Gezi’s retinue had deliberately befriended this small team of guards before the banquet and had become familiar with them with a generous amount of money.
If he went to ask them for help now, everything would naturally be fine. Then, he would secretly give them a sum of money for their hard work. It would be even more natural.
The six guards were already on duty outside the banquet hall. After receiving the reward, they immediately rushed into the banquet hall and asked righteously,””What’s going on? Why would two investigators be kicked out of the banquet hall during the welcome banquet organized by the inspection department? Who did this? Are you looking down on the guards of our inspection department?”
He was asking who did it, but his eyes were already locked onto Lin Yi!
Lin Yi’s mouth twitched. Another person said that they looked down on them, and it was the same. Without a doubt, they were on Fang Gezi’s side!
The guard Captain didn’t know that he’d exposed his position just like that. Under the guidance of Fang Gezi’s retinue, he walked up to Lin Yi as if he’d just confirmed his target.”Someone said that you attacked people without distinguishing right from wrong, right? If you’re not mistaken, then come with us!”
He’d already heard of Lin Yi’s identity from his retinue-he was a third-grade continent’s inspector, Sangzi continent’s Sima Yi. It wasn’t a big deal!
Let’s arrest him and lock him up for a night!
He didn’t have the authority to do anything more to Lin Yi, but just one night was enough to make this inspector lose face!
Lin Yi stood tall and proud, a mocking smile on his face.”Someone said? Who said that? Someone said I attacked you and you believed me?”
“If you believe me, then so be it. What qualifications do you have to make me go with you? Are you the law enforcers of the inspection department? You want to take me away without asking anything? are you sure you want to do this?”
The squad leader’s forehead immediately broke out in cold sweat.
Lin Yi’s questions were getting more and more heart-wrenching, and he didn’t know what to say.
As expected, he was not a kind person!
It felt a little troublesome!
If possible, the captain felt that it was best not to mess with Lin Yi …
However, he had taken advantage of Fang Gezi, so he couldn’t eat her up now!
It wasn’t a big problem to offend a third-grade continent’s patrol envoy, but he couldn’t afford to offend a group of second-grade continent’s patrol envoys!
“Stop being so long-winded! Although we’re not law enforcers, we’re still responsible for maintaining the order of the banquet. Now that you’ve disrupted the normal progress of the banquet, what’s the problem with taking you away?”
The captain bit the bullet and insisted,””It’s a fact that you hit someone. Do you want to deny it in front of everyone? Don’t make a big deal out of this, just come with us!”
As he spoke, he waved his hand for his team members to take Lin Yi down. Fei daqiang couldn’t hold it in anymore when he saw the guards spread out and surround him.
“A bunch of blind things, how much benefits did you guys get from them, and you dare to come and find trouble with our boss? Do you know what consequences your choice will bring to you? I advise you to think twice before you act!”
Fei daqiang really reminded him out of good intentions. If it was in the past, he would have directly gone up and done it!
He felt that his boss, as the Deputy Director of the inspection department, couldn’t take these guards too seriously, so he gave them a chance to make a new choice.
He could play the pig to eat the Tiger, but playing the pig to eat the mouse was a different story … Eh, Fei daqiang swore that he didn’t call Lin Yi a pig …
The guard Captain couldn’t back down now. He could only walk this path to the end. He ignored Fei daqiang’s words and continued to order his guards to catch Lin Yi.
Lin Yi raised an eyebrow. Since they didn’t listen to him, he’d have to teach them a lesson!
As the Vice President of the inspection department, he was actually arrested by the guards on his first visit to the inspection department. If word got out, would he still have the face to stay in the inspection department?
Just as the two sides were about to clash, another team of guards arrived.
The leader was a young man in silver light armor. His appearance was not bad, and under the armor, he seemed to be full of heroic spirit.
“What’s going on? What are you doing?”
As soon as the young man entered, he frowned and shouted to the squad leader,””I asked you to protect the investigators outside the banquet hall, what are you doing here? Could it be that you all think that you can drink and chat with the various investigators?”
The imposing manner that the squad leader had been holding up suddenly disappeared, and his whole body became hunched. He quickly dismissed his subordinates and ran to the young man, nodding and bowing.
“Head guard, it’s not that this subordinate wants to come in, but there’s a rather serious conflict here. Sangzi continent’s patrol envoy Sima Yi launched a sneak attack and injured two Lord second grade continent’s patrol envoys, so this subordinate wants to bring patrol envoy Sima back to ask about the situation.”
The captain was a little nervous when his superior appeared, but when he thought about it carefully, he seemed to be relieved.
She didn’t need to target Lin Yi anymore, and the pressure on him disappeared instantly!
It would be easier to talk to Fang Gezi later. It wasn’t that he didn’t do what he was paid to do, but the situation was out of his control now that his boss was here. He couldn’t be blamed!
The silver-armored young man was the guard Captain of the patrolling guards. His status was similar to that of a Deacon, but his authority was slightly higher.
After all, having people under him was considered a more vital position, and ordinary people couldn’t take it.
For example, the commander of the emperor’s guards might not be as high in rank as the civil and military officials in the court, but even a first-rank official would not dare to treat him lightly, because the commander of the guards must be the emperor’s confidant!
The team leader explained the situation with a little apprehension. He also explained a few words to himself, indicating that he had no selfish motives and was completely doing it for work!
The silver-armored young man frowned as he heard this. He raised his hand and slapped the squad leader’s face. At the same time, he snorted heavily and said,”Did you see with your own eyes that patrol envoy Sima beat someone up? I don’t think so? You dare to be disrespectful to an honorable patrol envoy just by listening to one side of the story!”
“Who gave you the guts? You can even ignore my orders? What did I tell you before you came? He’s completely ignoring my orders!”
The welcoming banquet of the inspection Institute was just one of the elements. It was more of a platform for the inspectors of these continents to communicate, and also an opportunity to resolve some disputes in advance.
Apart from protecting, the responsibility of a guard was also to monitor. As long as no one died, there was no need for the guard to intervene.
The team leader had only intervened earlier because Fang Gezi had bribed him, and even shifted his attention to Lin Yi.
