Monarch Night
Chapter 1279 - 41: Exposed [Extra - for Silver Alliance Leader wise Hai Chen]
Upon hearing these words.
Sikong Dou was instantly stunned, only feeling thunder ringing in his head.
"What...what...incoming invoice?" Sikong Dou stuttered.
"Yes, the incoming invoice. Where did these books come from? How much did they cost? It should all be on the invoice, right? Show it to us and we can leave."
The captain said with a stern face, impartial and just.
Sikong Dou was completely numb.
All the goods here were stolen, where would they get invoices?
"Officer, this...the time is long past, I truly have no idea where those incoming invoices are."
"Search carefully! Many of these are new books, how long could time have passed for them? Hurry up and find it!"
The captain was becoming impatient.
"Officer..."
Sikong Dou leaned over, slipping a large piece of silver silently into the captain’s pocket: "Officer, hehe, could you be lenient..."
The captain was furious, directly taking out the silver and throwing it to the ground, shouting sternly: "Boss, how dare you openly bribe the Guardian! What a crime!"
Looking at the silver on the ground, Sikong Dou was completely dumbfounded.
This is so unreasonable?
He could only pull a long face: "Officer, over here...many books are...gotten through informal channels, cough cough, no invoice."
"Ha, no invoice? Which informal channel are these from? Provide some information, we’ll check it out." The captain said.
Sikong Dou was dumbfounded once more: "Officer, the...channel issue..."
Sikong Dou was totally at a loss.
Channel...I have no channel, my channel is just my two hands.
Seeing he didn’t answer, the captain urged again: "Hurry..."
Sikong Dou pleaded: "Officer...this channel cannot be exposed."
"Don’t worry, we’ll keep it confidential."
"It’s inconvenient..."
"We don’t sell books, we won’t steal your business, what’s inconvenient?"
The captain coldly said: "Reveal this line!"
The old man hadn’t even spoken, while on the other side a team member was already shouting: "Captain, there are many Conquer the World books here!"
The captain was taken aback and went over to have a look, then returned immediately, his face even more serious: "Where did these Conquer the World books come from?"
"I...I brought them in."
"Brought them in? Where from? Invoice?"
"I..."
The old man was completely dumbfounded.
How did things suddenly turn out this way?
"Speak!"
The captain shouted loudly.
The old man was at a loss, his eyes flitting: "Officer, I have an internal report to make."
He pulled the captain aside and whispered: "These were agreed by Lord Ningxue Sword."
"Does Lord Sword have an official document?"
"Ah?...No."
"Any note?"
"..."
"Any invoice?"
"..."
"Any token?"
"...None."
Sikong Dou looked utterly defeated.
The captain nodded: "Understood, everyone, seal the store and bind this man! Take him back to the Guardian Hall!"
With a clatter, an iron chain was looped around the old man’s neck.
Then two people rushed up, tying him up tightly.
The old man was still bewildered even now.
How did things escalate to this point?
As for resistance...these Guardians were naturally not his match, but...what happens if he breaks out like this?
Besides, I have connections with the higher-ups, what’s there to fear?
He quietly allowed himself to be tied up firmly.
The captain came over, looking at Sikong Dou’s old face, calmly saying: "Lord Sword allows it? You pulled this grand flag, why didn’t you say Ninth Lord gave you a backdoor?"
Sikong Dou looked aggrieved: "It truly was allowed by Lord Sword..."
The captain laughed heartily: "You mean I should go find Lord Sword and have him confront you?"
Sikong Dou was dumbfounded: "...??"
"Take him away!"
The captain waved his hand, escorting Sikong Dou out, cursing under his breath: "This old bastard really dares to bluff, Lord Sword allows it...he should think we wouldn’t dare investigate, what the hell is crammed in his tiny head?"
"Take him away, who does he think he is! Daring to cling to Lord Sword!"
Saying this, he kicked Sikong Dou’s skinny backside, kicked again, saying: "Old bastard! When we get back, I’ll deal with you properly!"
Sikong Dou was taken away, feeling greatly aggrieved and speechless.
Arriving at the Donghu State Guardian Hall.
In Sikong Dou’s imagination, there would at least be some interrogation, right? Then find evidence and convict, right?
As long as you contact the upper level I’m safe. Moreover, there will be no trouble in the future.
So he waited with peace of mind.
But...the development of the matter was completely unexpected.
"Si Yexing,...crimes are numerous, evidence is conclusive, sentenced to immediate execution, beheaded publicly on a chosen auspicious day."
He was actually directly sentenced to death.
This time, Sikong Dou was directly infuriated!
"I demand to see your superior!"
"The superior is busy!"
Finally, Sikong Dou couldn’t hold back: "I want to see your Inspector Fang, Fang Che, Captain Fang!"
"Captain Fang won’t come!"
"Fang Che will definitely come, he’s my brother!"
"Haha, the way you say that, Inspector Fang, that’s my father!"
"... Fang Che is truly my brother! If there is half a false word, may lightning strike me down!"
Sikong Dou was directly anxious: "Ask him, if he doesn’t admit, I’ll die without regrets! I’ll crash myself dead here!" 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂
"He really is my brother!"
Sikong Dou pleaded in despair.
He never would have thought it would come to this.
Dang it, you upstairs have half pardoned me, but no one below knows, making me not only dare not kill your people, but also unable to move or break out.
Yet now I’ve been caught and sentenced to death!
Where can I appeal this?!
Seeing Sikong Dou’s urgency, with nose and eyes.
The people from Donghu State Guardian Hall began to contact Fang Che.
Upon hearing, Fang Che became anxious!
Immediately rushed over.
Upon seeing Fang Che, Sikong Dou, in the death cell, almost burst into tears: "Brother, brother..."
"Brother? What happened?"
Fang Che showed concern.
The people beside from Guardian Hall: "Captain Fang, is this really your brother?"
"Yes, he’s my brother."
Fang Che sighed: "He doesn’t have much ability, couldn’t do anything since young. I tried to help him, used connections to get him a bunch of books, let him open a bookstore here to make a living... What did he do wrong?"
Immediately the people from Guardian Hall felt awkward.
So that was the channel... that’s how it went.
No wonder this old boy wouldn’t say.
"So it’s a misunderstanding..."
Thinking, this old fool has connections as strong as Captain Fang, yet still wants to cling to Lord Jian, is simply a stubborn mule!
Thus, under Fang Che’s ’face and connections’, Sikong Dou was quickly released.
"Brother, what happened?!" Fang Che showed disappointment.
Said while coughing, a blush appeared on his face.
"Don’t mention it... just unlucky, market patrol, got caught right..."
"Don’t mention it. What’s wrong with you? Injured?"
Sikong Dou asked.
"Don’t mention it, little brother is also unlucky, yesterday brother taught me Nightmare Divine Technique, I started practicing, but lack qualification, cultivation technique conflict, in the heart vein innate talent there’s congenital deficiency. At the time, neither I nor brother noticed, started directly... resulting in heart vein injury... sigh."
Fang Che sighed: "Today while sorting out spiritual energy, heard you got caught, originally small matter, but just got injured yesterday, mental fluctuation... worsened it slightly."
Fang Che chuckled: "But no worries, managed to come in time, at least put one thing at ease in my heart."
Sikong Dou felt ashamed.
Fang Che usually handles big matters, now delayed by himself, even got injured, heart vein damage, is not a small matter.
For Fang Che’s next action, it could be really dangerous.
Couldn’t help feeling worried, said: "Your qualifications, aren’t they always top-notch? How could you make such a basic mistake?"
Fang Che smiled bitterly: "This is always so confident, then brother and I make such a basic mistake. Always known for being genius... sigh."
"Heart vein damage, lack of qualification is no small matter."
Sikong Dou said: "Quickly follow me back, I happen to have some medicine there, can fix you up a bit."
"How can I accept this."
"Come on, don’t be polite with me."
Walking, Sikong Dou made a strange noise.
This was summoning Emperor Ye, Sikong Ye.
After the summoning finished, the old guy remained silent on the way.
Kept a stern face, pondering something.
Atmosphere was very heavy.
Until reaching Sikong Dou’s small courtyard, Sikong Ye also arrived: "Brother, what do you want?"
"Both of you sit down!"
Sikong Dou pressed them onto chairs.
They sat down with a bewildered look, unsure what this old thief intended.
Weren’t you going to give some good stuff?
Then suddenly Sikong Dou started swearing and cursing: "I call you two heartless bastards, created this trap to steal my treasure! Sikong Ye, this vicious plan was yours, wasn’t it? You just recovered and conspired with outsiders to send your brother to death row!"
"You think I’m a fool!"
Sikong Dou’s angry spit sprayed all over their faces.
Their faces full of confusion.
Really slipped up, indeed detected.
But detected is good...
Facing angry Sikong Dou, they had no choice but to stick to the original plan, endure the scolding.
Just feeling somewhat uneasy.
Seems this scene, isn’t unfolding as the planned script?
"Sikong Ye, you’ve improved! Your brother took care of you for over two thousand years, you recovered, first thing is sending your brother to prison!"
"Fang Che, you’re impressive too! Lying and deceiving, you don’t even flinch!"
Sikong Dou angrily shouted: "Damn it, Yan Nan and Dongfang Sansan personally crowned the World’s First King, sweeping across the Third Grade Emperor Level Realm at the Third Grade, battling with Six Great Monarch Level Captain Fang... qualification isn’t good! That’s one big joke!"
"Coming from a Ninth Level Family, rising to World’s First King’s level, you tell me the qualification is average!"
