237: Chapter 237: Disguise!
Zhou Yu sized up the man before him and imdiately recognized that he was a martial artist, and a rather skilled one at that.
At least above the Innate realm.
“?
Who are you?”
Zhou Yu asked with a frown.
The middle-aged man gave a slight smile.
“I am from the Martial Repository’s Inspection Departnt.
I’ve specifically co to ask you to return with us to investigate a matter related to Han Chufeng!”
Zhou Yu’s eyes narrowed.
“You’re Han Tang?”
“No, no, you misunderstand.
Han Tang is the leader of the Martial Repository’s Third Group.
Since this matter involves his family, he must recuse himself to ensure fairness.
Therefore, our Inspection Departnt is handling the investigation.
I am the head of the Inspection Departnt, Tang Fei.”
“Please co with us, Mr.
Zhou.
We will thoroughly investigate the matter and ensure justice is served once we clarify the situation.”
Seeing how polite Tang Fei was, Zhou Yu didn’t make it difficult for him.
“Alright, I’ll go with you.”
At that mont, Lin Luoluo beca anxious.
“Zhou Yu, what’s going on?”
Zhou Yu replied with a smile:
“Director Lin, you should go back first.
I will be back soon.”
Tang Fei also said with a smile:
“Yes, we’re just going to investigate so matters.
Mr.
Zhou will be back soon.”
Lin Luoluo was filled with doubts, but it wasn’t her place to ask more, so she just nodded.
Zhou Yu got into Tang Fei’s car, and Tang Fei personally drove away quickly.
No sooner had Zhou Yu said he would help Xu Tian with a problem than he was whisked away by soone from the so-called Martial Repository’s Inspection Departnt.
Could these two events be related?
What exactly had Zhou Yu done?
While Lin Luoluo was lost in her wild thoughts, a car stopped beside her.
When the car drove away, Lin Luoluo had vanished.
…
Zhou Yu, sitting in Tang Fei’s car, arrived at a secret building in the suburbs.
After getting out of the car, Zhou Yu surveyed the surroundings.
“What is this place?”
Tang Fei said with a laugh:
“I apologize, Mr.
Zhou, but we must inconvenience you for a while.
According to the regulations of the Martial Repository, anyone under investigation must stay here for one night.”
“Rest assured, I will handle your case as a special exception and expedite the process.”
“At the latest, you will be leaving here tomorrow morning.”
Zhou Yu nodded.
“Fine.”
“This way, Mr.
Zhou,” Tang Fei said as he led Zhou Yu through the building.
It was only upon reaching the basent that Zhou Yu discovered many people were being detained.
It appeared to be a prison.
Zhou Yu’s brow furrowed.
“What’s all this about?”
Tang Fei chuckled:
“These are martial artists with issues.
Many of them are here to cooperate with investigations and will be out soon.”
“Mr.
Zhou, rest assured, I’ve already given instructions to prioritize your case.”
Zhou Yu nodded and said no more.
Soon, Tang Fei brought Zhou Yu into a room and then turned and left.
When Tang Fei departed, his subordinates locked the door behind him.
Zhou Yu took in the room’s interior.
The room was quite plain, but also reasonably clean.
Just then, an elderly voice ca from next door.
“Kid, what did you do wrong?”
Zhou Yu turned his head and realized that the voice was coming from the neighboring room.
Zhou Yu spoke indifferently:
“Killed a man.”
“Oh?
To be detained here ans the person you killed must have been important.
Who did you kill?”
“The brother of the Martial Repository’s Third Group leader.”
Upon hearing this, there was a mont of silence in the next room, followed by a loud laugh.
“Good, well done.”
“It’s just a pity that you’ll never get out again, otherwise, I’d really like to et you, young man.”
Zhou Yu was taken aback.
“Elder, what did you do wrong?
Why can’t you get out?”
“Kid, don’t you know?”
Zhou Yu grew even more confused.
“Know what?”
“Once you’re in this place, there’s no possibility of leaving.”
“Huh?” Zhou Yu’s brow furrowed.
“Tang Fei from the Inspection Departnt just said that I could leave after the review.”
“Hahahaha…”
“Inspection Departnt, nonsense Inspection Departnt.”
“The Martial Repository never had anything called an Inspection Departnt; that Tang Fei, he is Han Tang.”
“He’s the leader of the Martial Repository’s Third Group.”
Zhou Yu’s expression darkened.
“What are you saying?”
“Kid, do you think I got here any differently?
I was deceived into coming here just like this,” the voice continued.
“That Han Tang is a master of disguise.”
A shadow passed through Zhou Yu’s eyes.
He walked to the door and smashed his fist against the stone door.
However, his punch made no impact on the door whatsoever.
On closer examination, he realized the door was no ordinary stone, infused with the elent of earth.
Furthermore, there were formation patterns hidden below that linked the door to the surrounding ground, making them one and the sa.
To blast open the door, one would have to break the underground formation.
Zhou Yu’s face changed.
He instantly realized he’d been tricked,
That he’d walked straight into a trap.
Then, the neighboring voice spoke again.
“Young man, don’t bother wasting your effort.”
“Unless a Transcending the Ordinary expert intervenes, nobody can break the formation here.”
