The Lin Chuan Mansion has just become noisy again shortly after nightfall, as the fire in the Department Six dungeon has attracted the attention of the whole city.
Yes, eyes, ninety-nine percent of them were watching, the human nature of watching is inevitable no matter what the world is.
When Luo Yan arrived in a rage, Lin Fujiyuan was already directing the firefight.
“Lord Lin, is this what Department Six of Lin Chuan Province is capable of? In the afternoon the prisoners were imprisoned, and at night the place caught fire. Lord Lin, I wonder if you can explain.” Luo Yan’s voice was stern and stern, as if he was furious by this sudden turn of events, and he even spoke out to rebuke Lin Fujiyuan, an old-timer who was also a Silver Seal Constable.
The fire was only in the building on the ground and could not reach the dungeon, so the prisoner was unharmed. I think the bandit who escaped set the fire deliberately to take advantage of the chaos and rob the prison, but I have sent someone to guard the prisoners, so even if the bandit burned all the buildings on the ground, he would not be able to succeed.”
Luo Yan’s face cleared a little with anger at his words, but he still said a little unforgivingly, “In terms of ability, I naturally do not dare to question Lord Lin as a senior. However, I have heard that there are many different forces in Lin Chuan, and there is no guarantee that someone will not secretly collaborate with the East to commit treason.
Moreover, there is a chamber of commerce from the East China Sea that wants to enter the Linchuan province. The people from the East China Sea are from one of the islands above the East China Sea. At such a sensitive time, the East Sea Chamber of Commerce and the East-English people from the island country appearing at the same time in Linchuan House, Lord Lin, you are an old-timer, you wouldn’t think this is a coincidence, would you?”
“Lord Luo really woke up the dreamer with a word, the appearance of the East China Sea Chamber of Commerce at such a time is very suspicious. I think we should send someone to closely monitor the East Sea Chamber of Commerce until the bandit leader is captured. But ——,” Lin Fujiyuan’s voice was slightly hesitant, “my branch in Lin Chuan House is short of manpower and it is difficult to take care of both sides at the same time, so we need Lord Luo to send his subordinates to monitor the East Sea Chamber of Commerce.”
“No,” said Luo Yan, flatly refusing, “it would be better to swap the two sides. If it is surveillance, then someone from the Linchuan branch, who is more familiar with the local area, should watch over the East China Sea Chamber of Commerce. The dungeon will be guarded by my constables.”
“That’s good.”
“Then let’s start tonight.”
Just at that moment, with all the hard work of the people, the fire was extinguished, and Luo Yan then took over the dungeon directly with his men, allowing the people from Department Six of Lin Chuan Province to leave.
The curtain fell on a sudden fire with no follow-up.

“How did it go, Lin Fujiwara?”
In the still unburned house above the Department Six dungeon, the three men once again talked confidentially. Bu Lengchuan, who was ostensibly badly wounded, had just moved over from the Yun Lai Inn when he asked like Qing Yu and Luo Yan.
“It’s still not half broken, just that the posture is put a little too low.” At this moment, Luo Yan, missing his earlier slightly unreasonable domineering attitude, commented on Lin Fujiwara’s behaviour tonight.
“The posture is too low, it’s also a crack.” Qing Yu picked up, “According to you, you are not strong enough to deserve the rank of Silver Seal, and your seniority is also lacking, which is why you are not treated well by those older Silver Seal constables.
This person, Lin Fujiwara, has also risen from the gra*sroots step by step. In theory, he should also be one of the Silver Seal constables who do not look down on you. Even if he hadn’t explicitly stated that he despised you, tonight when Luo Yan deliberately acted young and frivolous, he shouldn’t have been the least bit angry and instead took the initiative to lower his posture.”
Tonight, Qing Yu had also disguised himself as an ordinary constable and followed Luo Yan to the scene. The gesture made by Lin Tuoyuan was, to be honest, a bit low, as if there was no half-hearted anger.
But was Lin Tian Yuan really not a bit angry?
Even a man of clay has a bit of fire in him, let alone a living man like Lin Tuoyuan. As the head of Department Six, a violent body in Lin Chuan Province, a soft bone would not be able to calm the scene.
“So, you think Lin Fujiwon is more suspicious?” Bu Lengchuan asked.
“I can’t say I’m more suspicious, I’m just guessing unilaterally and doing some more precautions.” Surprisingly, Qing Yu did not put a cap on Lin Fujiwara’s suspicions, but only said that he should be more cautious.
In fact, all these suspicions are very untenable and are just speculation. Maybe Hayashi is the odd man out.
The real reason for Qingyu’s suspicion of Lin Fujiwara is the name, Lin Fujiwara’s name. Fujiwara, a somewhat rare and odd name in the Middle Kingdom, is a famous family name in the East. In Kiyoharu’s previous life, the Fujiwara family was the bloodline of the Emperor of the island.
In this world, even if there is no Fujiwara family, the name Fujiwara is still full of the characteristics of this Eastern country.
In this world, there is no Fujiwara family, but the name Fujiwara is still full of the characteristics of this Eastern Japan. And with Kiyoharu’s nature, if there is any suspicion about a person, it is enough for him to be deeply wary of that person.
“Whether Lin Fujiwara is suspected or not, we do not yet know, for now we just need to be careful and watch out for him.” Luo Yan took over the conversation, “Tonight, by taking advantage of the arson, we directly dragged the East Sea Chamber of Commerce into the water, so that their intention to enter Lin Chuan Province was foiled. Next, as long as they still want to continue, they must first clear their suspicions, and the first operation, is not far away.”
Yes, the first action, tonight’s arson was not the work of the Tokai Chamber of Commerce or Feng Yixian and the others who had colluded with them, let alone the long-lost bandit leader Hattori Kotaro, the arson was simply a self-directed act by the three Seibu.
Their aim was to find an excuse to monitor and restrict the Tokai Chamber of Commerce, forcing them to jump to the wall. As long as they still want to enter Rinchen Province, they must act quickly. Otherwise, there would certainly be no shortage of twists and turns to follow.
“The enemy may be in the shadows, but the initiative is in our hands. In that case, they will have to follow our script.” Qing Yu concluded.

At the same moment, in the premises of the Tokai Chamber of Commerce.
Fujita Heiji sat on his knees in the centre of the main hall, and a group of subordinates, on each side, sat on their knees.
“The arson tonight was not our doing, nor was it the work of our allies.” Fujita Heiji said as much to his subordinates.
“Then who actually did it?” Feng Yixian, who was sitting at the top left, asked.
“Most likely, it was the group that tried to enter the Linchuan Prefecture with the Eternal Life San.” Fujita Heiji said this.
Speaking of this, Feng Yixian suddenly thought of something, recently someone was contacting the head of the Linchuan Mansion’s studio, attempting to enter the Linchuan Mansion with the studio’s connections. After Feng Yixian sent someone to investigate secretly, he found out that that person often went in and out of Pill Master’s mansion, and from the looks of it, he was in cahoots with Pill Master.
When Feng Yixian thought of this, he spoke directly to Fujita Heji about it.
When Fujita Heiji heard this, a grim smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, “It seems likely that this group of little rats are tripping us up. Feng Jun, we are currently being watched and it is not good for us to take action, so I will leave this matter to you.”
“Take this up and down little rat —— Naija groupt.”
“Heyi.”
