Chapter 1,336 Start investigation

Moreover, these city guards gathered more and more, and soon reached several hundred, surrounding Su Chen in an unstoppable manner.

Xia Hongjin sneered and said: "I was ordered to arrest Shu Tianxing today and take him back to jail, but Su Chen repeatedly blocked me and even injured me. According to the city guard's regulations, Su Chen should be guilty of the same crime as Shu Tianxing. Come on, Capture Su Chen!"

Following Xia Hongjin's order, the city guards immediately launched an encirclement offensive against Su Chen. Even among them, there are some strong men wearing commander's attire.

"Many of these city guard commanders have reached the third level of life and death realm. Moreover, they also obey Xia Hongjin's orders."

Su Chen narrowed his eyes and thought to himself, Xia Hongjin is just the son of Commander Xia, and he has too much power in the city guard, right?

"Hahahaha, Su Chen, even if you have wings today, you still can't escape the city guard's dragnet."

Xia Hongjin laughed proudly, although the facts were somewhat different from his plan. His original plan was to capture Su Chen himself after taking the Styx Pill.

But in the end, he still had to use the power of the city guard.

Xia Hongjin was glad that he had the foresight to bring many city guards here today, otherwise Su Chen might have escaped.

However, just when Xia Hongjin was feeling proud.

"You just said you were under orders? Whose orders were you under?"

Suddenly, a deep voice came.

"What's the point? Of course it's under the orders of my father, Commander Xia. Do you have any objections?"

Xia Hongjin laughed and turned his head, clearly seeing the figure of the person who asked the question. The next moment, Xia Hongjin's body suddenly stiffened as if he had been shocked by an electric shock.

"Nie...General Nie!"

Xia Hongjin couldn't believe his eyes, "You...why are you here?"

Nie Weitong did not answer his question, but looked at Xia Hongjin with a frown: "Who are you? Why can you command the troops and commanders of the city guard?"

"I...my father is the Commander-in-Chief of Xia."

Xia Hongjin stammered, his arrogance just now completely gone.

"I'm not asking about your father, but what position you hold in the city guard."

Nie Weitong frowned.

"I...I...I don't hold a position in the city guard."

Xia Hongjin looked sad.

"In other words, you do not hold a position in the City Guards, but you are able to command the troops and commanders of the City Guards."

Nie Weitong said calmly, but in Xia Hongjin's eyes, this was obviously a sign of the coming storm.

He, Xia Hongjin, was arrogant and domineering in Yaohai City and feared nothing, but that was based on the premise that his father was the commander-in-chief of Xia. In other words, he was not afraid of anything, but he should only be afraid of Commander Xia's immediate superior.

If something goes wrong with Commander Xia's position, then Xia Hongjin will be nothing.

In particular, Nie Weitong was not only the immediate superior of Commander Xia, but also the supreme commander of the city guards.

"General Nie, Sir General, please listen to me. Today I am here in place of my father. He is unable to come in person to arrest the fugitives due to illness. I am here in his place..."

Xia Hongjin stammered in defense, but before he could finish his words, Nie Weitong raised a hand and stopped him from speaking.

"Where is the fugitive you mentioned?"

Nie Weitong asked.

"it's him."

Xia Hongjin took the risk, pointed to Shu Tianxing beside him, and said.

"General Nie, Commander Shu is the former commander of the City Guards and is not a fugitive as Xia Hong said. I can vouch for him on this point."

Su Chen interrupted at the right time.

"Thank you, Mr. Su Chen. Nie will definitely find out about this matter."

Nie Weitong said to Su Chen politely. This attitude immediately made Xia Hongjin next to him open his mouth in disbelief. He couldn't believe that the top commander of the city guard would treat Su Chen so well.

"But before that, please let Nie handle some city guard affairs first."

Nie Weitong hugged Su Chen, then turned to Xia Hongjin and the rest of the city guards, and said, "Come here, Commander Xia is suspected of abusing his power and handing over the military power of the city guards to people who are not city guards, which is a serious violation of the city guard." According to the regulations of the Guards, this general will announce that an investigation will be launched immediately into Commander Xia’s abuse of power.”

"Investigating? Investigating my father?"

Xia Hongjin's face turned pale. He knew very well that his father, Commander Xia, could not withstand the investigation. If he were investigated, many of the violations that Commander Xia had done in the past would be implicated.

At that time, it will not only be a matter of not being able to keep his official position, but he may also face more serious penalties!

And all this is because he came here today to cause trouble for Su Chen?

The most important thing is that Xia Hongjin really can't figure out how General Nie, who usually lives in seclusion at the City Guards Headquarters, appears here today without dying.
