“You are?” The man with the protruding mouth vaguely felt that the gaze of the person in front of him was too oppressive, so he didn’t act overly presumptuously.

“Official business by the Procuratorate. This person is involved in an important case.” Xu Jingming took out his token and showed it to the two auxiliary guards beside him. He then pointed at the man. “The two of you, escort this person to the South Wing Prison!”

Xu Jingming’s token clearly read: “South Wing Procuratorate, Jingming.”

“Yes, sir,” the two auxiliary guards immediately responded.

The Procuratorate investigated serious cases! The auxiliary guards needed to cooperate.

“I’m involved in an important case?” The man was in disbelief. “Sir, you’ve wronged me.”

“Sir, my Sixth Master…” someone else said.

“Oh? There are accomplices?” Xu Jingming swept his gaze around.

The group of people trembled in fear and turned pale. Nobody dared to speak.

“Spare me! Spare me!” Sixth Master Chang was so frightened that he kneeled down. “Sir, spare me. I’ll give you all my silver.”

That was the South Wing Prison! Once he entered, he would be sucked dry of his wealth repeatedly before being released. Without a few thousand taels of silver, it was impossible for him to come out alive. How could a small-time gang leader like him have so much money?

“Oh?” Xu Jingming looked at him.

“I have 100 taels of silver,” Sixth Master Chang offered immediately. “Please accept my good intentions.”

As a gang member, his expenses were also high. It was already not bad for him to have more than 100 taels of silver.

Xu Jingming immediately lost interest.

“Hurry up and escort him to the South Wing Prison,” Xu Jingming instructed the two auxiliary guards. “When you send him over, register him. It’s a case I, Jingming, am investigating!”

“Yes, sir,” the two auxiliary guards replied.

“Brother Jing, don’t worry. Nobody can take him away without your approval or your superior’s approval.” Qiu Tong smiled and showed her token. “I’m from the Prison Bureau. I’ll bring the two of you over.”

The two auxiliary guards were filled with respect. Another Blood Rain Guard from the Prison Bureau?

“Hurry.”

“Let’s go.” The two auxiliary guards stepped forward and chained up the man’s hands before escorting him out of the restaurant.

“Thank you, Sister Qiu. Thank you, Lord Jing!” The girl was extremely excited. Her family really couldn’t fork out 500 taels of silver.

“If there are any more of such people in the future, just tell me,” Qiu Tong said with a smile. With her status, it wasn’t a problem to protect a small restaurant.

“Thank you, Sister Qiu.” The girl’s eyes were moist. With these words, there was hope for their restaurant!

The surrounding gang members looked at each other and silently noted it down. This restaurant had the Blood Rain Guard of the Procuratorate and Prison Bureau as its backer.

Soon.

The two auxiliary guards escorted Sixth Master Chang to the South Wing.

She clearly has good skills, yet it’s so difficult to run a restaurant. Xu Jingming stood on the street and shook his head slightly as he looked at the dimly lit restaurant.

“But they still want to take root in the capital because the capital still has some order. It’s true hell outside, a hell where people can’t survive.” Qiu Tong shook her head.

Xu Jingming nodded.

The girl was clearly the owner, but she had to be a waitress on the second floor of the restaurant. Her father was bedridden, and she had to manage the business.

“It’s all to earn a living,” Qiu Tong said. “I’ll go to the South Wing first. Are you still going to interrogate this prisoner? If not, I’ll run him through the prison’s few luxury packages.”

“I’ve been very busy recently. If he’s still alive in a month, I’ll interrogate him,” Xu Jingming said.

“Understood.” Qiu Tong knew what he meant.

This kind of small-time gang leader had virtually no chance of leaving the prison alive. It was impossible for the South Wing HQ to lock him up forever. They had to provide him food and water during his imprisonment. Without money and the unspoken rules, he would be dead within a month.

Qiu Tong returned to the South Wing HQ while Xu Jingming returned to his residence with his spear holster. The capital looks quite prosperous, but it’s not easy to survive in it.

In the distance, some women were waving their handkerchiefs to attract customers.

He could see beggars begging on the streets.

He could see the gang members walking on the streets like a pack of jackals.

He could see big shots riding a carriage and a group of guards surrounding them.

Different people live in different ways, but as long as they can survive, they can live on tenaciously. Life is really resilient. Perhaps every day one lives is bliss for many.

Xu Jingming walked back to his residence, which was also the place he rented when he first arrived in the capital.

Even in reality, I hear that some weak civilizations collapse and are swallowed by powerful civilizations. The lives of the planetary lifeforms of those weak civilizations are tragic.

There are those who work on mineral planets year-round and only have sandstorms as companions.

Some are slaves and servants.

Some people are squeezed dry to do all kinds of jobs. For example, in Blood Rain World, some planetary lifeforms block out their memories and live their lives in Blood Rain World again and again. They might die of old age in reality after a few lives in Blood Rain World.

He had never experienced it himself, but he could find plenty of news of a similar type on the virtual world.

Earth allowed everyone to cultivate evolutionary methods and have VR headsets! It was already very outstanding among the basic civilizations in the universe.

I have to cherish the moment. It’s already blissful enough to live happily every day. Xu Jingming held his spear and naturally practiced his spearmanship in the martial arts arena.

Happiness was a result of comparison.

The more he saw, the happier he felt every day! Although the threat of his new civilization’s expiring protection loomed, he had a bright future ahead of him. He was also the number one genius on Earth. He had a wife who understood him, a lovely daughter, both parents, and his grandfather was still alive…

Now, he could still train in the virtual worlds. Although he was still an inconspicuous figure in the entire universe, such a life had already exceeded 99% of people. It was really blissful.

It’s pretty good. Xu Jingming practiced his spearmanship one move at a time, but there was a warm feeling in his spearmanship.

At his level, his spearmanship could already reflect his state of mind!

His spearmanship didn’t become very fast or powerful, nor did his moves change unpredictably. However, he had a heartwarming charm. Seeing such spearmanship was like seeing a heartwarming life, seeing steaming meat buns, and watching a father hugging his children…
