Beasts Master
First Duty
Zhao Jian was shocked when he saw the corpse of the identityless woman whose charred body was burning. He instantly felt nauseous and almost vomited, but his determination was so strong to solve this murder case that he forced himself to investigate whether there were clues left by the culprit in the body of the victim. But he found nothing there.
“Alright, gather the remaining Court Officers in my room!” zhao Jian exclaimed as he left the morgue.
Before long, Zhao Jian's subordinate Ten Imperial Court Officers had gathered in his room.
“I leave it to Uncle Chen and the other seniors investigating this Murder case. I want this matter investigated in earnest, otherwise I will write a bad report about you guys!” zhao Jian— exclaimed that a case like this was actually easy to solve by experienced Royal Court Officers like them. However, their intentions are not there, because the victims are only commoners and will not increase their achievements if they catch the culprit or just waste time.
“Hey, aren't you being too cruel, Judge Jian?” sahut Zhao Que—The Imperial Court Officer of Women who is one of the experienced Court Officers and has a Spirit realm cultivation base.
“Good, we will do it!” sidelines Zhao Chen while elbowing Zhao Que so as not to protest Zhao Jian.
“Why did you forbid me to protest?” zhao Que grumbled through a telepathic voice at Zhao Chen.
“Later I will explain it to you guys and the important thing is that he has a special Token from the King, so that his standing is almost equivalent to that of the Supreme Court Judge!” zhao Chen Suhut.
Zhao Que was shocked to hear that and did not expect the King would give such immense authority to this smelly brat in front of him.
He looked at Zhao Jian and suspected that Zhao Jian was the King of—'s illegitimate son, considering that he had been a widower for a dozen years and it was very strange that a King did not remarry after his wife died, even in the historical record there is a King who has dozens of Concubines—not to mention slave women who are not recorded in the historical record.
Zhao Chen immediately split the task of investigating the mysterious woman's death and Zhao Jian was amazed to see her, they looked so professional.
...***...
“Did Uncle Chen not tell Aunt Que about the new rules of the Royal Court?” sahut Zhao Jian with a bright smile as the two walked towards the Meigui brothel.
Zhao Que only frowned, as Zhao Chen had already explained everything about Zhao Jian to them. And he cursed his misfortune, why should he be mutated into a subordinate of this novice Youth next to him.
“Ara-ara... Why did the Royal Court Officer visit our brothel?” A beautiful woman walked over and approached them. He immediately squinted at Zhao Jian. “Hakim handsome... do you ask for a monthly ration?” goda.
Zhao Jian only smiled widely and looked at Zhao Que to begin the investigation immediately.
“We are investigating the death of a mysterious woman with a burned body not far from your brothel. Please call your Guards on guard last night!” zhao Que said.
However, the woman immediately smiled wryly, she was like afraid of getting involved in this case—so Zhao Jian immediately took out the Book of Justice, but Zhao Que shook his head.
“Don't do that Judge Jian, this brothel has a strong man behind it. We just need to investigate the Guard!” Zhao Que sent a telepathic voice at Zhao Jian.
“Sial! They really limit my fragrance!” murmured Zhao Jian grumbled.
Zhao Que was worried that Zhao Jian would be annoyed because the woman was still reluctant to call their Guards guarding earlier. “Do not make it difficult for you young Miss. lest this brothel be closed by the Royal Court,” threatened.
The woman frowned and immediately asked one of her Servants to call the Guards on guard duty last night.
The two burly men with dragon tattoos enveloping his entire arm came up with a sour facial expression, it seemed like the Servant this beautiful woman had told him what had happened.
