The "crackling" sound of the rain slapping on the window awakened Lu Jiu.

Opening his eyes and looking around, it was dark inside and outside the window. Lu Jiu looked up at the wall clock on the wall.

Three o'clock in the morning.

Since returning to Changyi City last evening, Lu Jiu has slept for nearly 9 hours. For him, who only needs 3 to 5 hours of sleep a night in these days to fully recover his energy, this is enough to prove how severe the injury he suffered yesterday.

At the same time, Lu Jiu had to sigh at the powerful recovery ability of this body, with the help of demon blood. Except for the pain in his chest, the other parts of his body had recovered as usual.

Leaning against the head of the bed, Lu Jiu reached out to get the mechanical box next to him. This time he opened the lid directly, counting less than one-third of the juice and demon blood ice left.

He could barely support himself in a battle.

With a long sigh, Lu Jiu thought about how to act next.

There are two days left before the end of the Zhengyang Festival holiday. When he arrived in Changyi City, he looked at the schedule. The last bus was tomorrow afternoon, and he had to return to Qingding City before this.

There is only one and a half left to kill the semi-mechanical puppet.

Although Lu Jiu is sure that the guy should still be wandering near the grave, going directly to the mechanical puppet to fight for his life is undoubtedly a joke about his own life.

In the previous battle, Lu Jiu had already experienced that guy's powerful close combat ability, especially the mechanical prosthesis, which almost all-round restrained his existing attack methods.

But this does not mean that the mechanical puppet is invincible!

In fact, after reexamining the battle last night, Lu Jiu found that his flaws were also very prominent.

First, this semi-mechanical puppet has physical strength that is stronger than the spiritual awakening demon vein, but does not have corresponding extraordinary abilities.

Of course, his mechanical prosthesis is to some extent an extremely powerful special ability, but Lu Jiu has already experienced this ability, at least he doesn't have to worry about this guy suddenly making a fool of himself halfway through the battle.

Secondly, the semi-mechanical puppet completely follows the instructions issued by the Heart-Grapping Ghost, which means that he will not adapt to certain situations. To give the simplest example, after being attacked by Lu Jiu's thunder, normal people will choose to retreat and wait and see, and he almost kept launching an offensive, completely putting his safety aside.

Although this played a role in suppressing Lu Jiu at that time, it also made Lu Jiu find out the movement rules of this semi-mechanical puppet...

If you want to win, you have to make a fuss about it!

......

As the management agency of this city, Changyi County Government still maintains the original regulations even in the city center with tall buildings.

Neither the floors are increased nor any modifications to the architectural style are made.

It’s not that the government has no money to repair it, but that the court strictly prohibits local government offices from changing their homes without authorization. This is somewhat a demonstration of support for the ancient system in the current drastic social environment.

Naturally, there are people on duty in this kind of public areas all year round. Even on the second day of Zhengyang Festival, several officials arrived early, wearing straw hats to clean the broken branches and leaves that fell on the ground in the courtyard due to the wind and rain last night.

Dong! Dong! Dong! Dong!

The drum of injustice placed outside the gate facing the county yamen hall was suddenly knocked by someone. The closest official immediately dropped his broom, held the long knife around his waist, and rushed out of the door quickly.

When I opened the door, I saw a man wearing a black veil hat standing beside the drum.

"Did you beat the drum?"

Holding the knife handle, the official asked with his head held high, although he was doing chores in the yamen, he was also an official in front of outsiders.

"I have information about the murderer in my hand and I want to inform the people at Jingye Shi. Please give me a message and tell them that I will only wait half an hour. If they can't get there, I will not be able to control the murderer if he runs away."

Holding a wanted order in his hand, he stuffed it into the arms of the official officer. Lu Jiu raised his hands and walked slowly into the yamen. When he passed the official officer, he seemed to suddenly think of something and said,

"I arrived here early in the morning and hadn't even eaten breakfast. I quickly asked someone to prepare a breakfast for me. The amount was large and I was hungry!"

"you......"

The official looked at Lu Jiu's back, and looked down at the notice in his hand. For a moment, he didn't know whether to go forward to stop him from trespassing his way into the public or notify Jingyeshi immediately.

'Once you find the trace of this murderer, be sure to notify Jingyeshi as soon as possible. If there is any delay, don't let it go!'

The presiding of the chief in the county government the night before yesterday came to his mind, and he immediately trembled all over and rushed to the stables in the back hall of the county government government.

Facts have proved that the pressure the heart-cutting ghosts put on Jingyesi in Changyi City is not comparable to that of ordinary criminals.

In less than 20 minutes, a team of people wearing Jingyesi uniforms and wearing rainproof cloaks rushed from the side of the street outside the county yamen. The leader was the captain Jingyesi who appeared at Ningxin Inn the night before yesterday.

When I arrived at the gate of the county government office, I immediately turned over and dismounted and took the people into the door quickly.

"Where are people?"

He took off his cloak that was still dripping rain, and immediately an official came forward to take over the hand. Captain Jingyesi's eyes circled around the county hall. Except for a wooden table with leftovers, there were only a few other official officials who couldn't help but ask.

"The man has left... He said there was an emergency and couldn't wait to check it out. He also asked me to hand over this note to you and said you will understand after reading it."

He trembled with a folded note. The official recalled the man's appearance of eating wildly in the county hall. If it weren't for the note and the action of the man jumping over the wall when he left, he even suspected that the guy was here to eat and drink.

"Who allows you to let him go!"

When he heard that the man who knew the information left early, Jing'an Guard immediately stepped forward and scolded him.

"Report to the Lord, we can't stop him."

The official's answer was so honest that the Jing'anwei opened his mouth and could only helplessly close it. He turned to the captain's handwriting on the note, and asked in surprise when he saw the content above.

"What did he ask us to prepare these things for?"

"Since that man dares to come to the county government to report the news, he must rely on it. We cannot miss any possible information at the moment."

After reading the content on the note, after a brief silence, the captain held it in his hand and said in a muffled voice,

"As long as you do, I'll send someone to contact the official factory in Changyi City, so that they must prepare these things to the county government as soon as possible. I want to see what he sells in the gourd!"

At this time, someone outside the county government office was standing on the corner of the street, holding a bamboo stick in his hand, burping and picking his teeth.

At first, Lu Jiu didn't plan to ask Jingyesi's people to help.
Chapter completed!
