Chapter 309 Collusion with the Government
Then everyone found a shovel from Zhou Chen's house and started searching, as if they were going to turn his house upside down.

Just then, footsteps were heard outside the house. If it was daytime, they would not be able to hear this sound at all. However, it was night now and there were no pedestrians on the street outside. Ordinary people had already fallen asleep.

That's why they could hear footsteps and think, "Wait, something's happening, it seems like someone is coming."

Upon hearing this, everyone stopped what they were doing and looked out through the window. The guy in the lead also quickly extinguished the fire starter in his hand.

Outside the house, Zhou Chen was walking towards his house with a constable, "Zhou boy, are you sure a thief has entered your house? Don't play tricks on me, otherwise the consequences will be serious."

"How dare I lie to you, sir? I am telling the truth," he said and walked into the yard.

Everyone in the room smiled when they saw this, "Haha, this kid is quite smart and knew to look for someone from the yamen, but he still miscalculated."

After entering the yard, the constable had already noticed something unusual in the house, because the moment he entered the yard, although the fire inside was extinguished in time, he still saw it.

The constable didn't think much and said directly to the person in the house, "Come out."

Hearing his voice, everyone walked out without hesitation, with a teasing smile on their faces.

At the same time, several people had bypassed Zhou Chen and the others and closed the gate of the courtyard.

Oh, I was wondering who is coming. It turns out to be Constable Guan. Why are you so idle in the middle of the night and have nothing to do? Why do you come to cause trouble with your brothers?
"Yu Shaowu, you are so brave."

The man called Yu Shaowu was the third brother of this group of people. When Zhou Chen saw the situation in front of him, he had some guesses in his mind, but a frightened expression appeared on his face. He grabbed Constable Guan's clothes with one hand and said, "Sir, these are them. Catch them quickly."

At this time, Constable Guan was extremely nervous and thought, "Is this guy stupid? Can't he see there are so many of them and he is alone? How the hell can I catch him?"

But he couldn't lose the momentum. Constable Guan held the hilt of the knife at his waist with his right hand and said, "Yu Shaowu, shouldn't you explain to me why you came to someone's house in the middle of the night?"
For ordinary thugs, even if they have the advantage in numbers, they would never dare to be enemies with government officials. However, this was an accident. When the thugs saw Constable Guan holding a knife in his right hand, they all took out the axes behind them.

Zhou Chen could see that beads of sweat were already on Constable Guan’s forehead.

At this moment, Yu Shaowu smiled and waved his hand gently, and the thugs surrounding the two of them put away their axes. Yu Shaowu smiled and came to the front of Constable Guan.

Seeing Yu Shaowu walk in, but his right hand holding the hilt never pulled out the long sword, Yu Shaowu whispered, "Constable Guan, we are all just trying to make money, why take it so seriously?" Then he stuffed a piece of silver into Constable Guan's left hand.

Constable Guan noticed his movements, and although he didn't see him, he knew his purpose. He immediately took a few steps back and finally unsheathed the long sword at his waist.

At this moment, Yu Shaowu's right hand froze in mid-air, and everyone saw the silver change in his hand.

"Yu Shaowu, how dare you try to bribe me? Believe it or not, I will catch you now?"
Yu Shaowu's originally smiling expression immediately turned cold at this moment, "Is Guan so disrespectful?"
"What face does a gangster want?"

The Constable Guan in front of him was a newcomer three months ago. Yu Shaowu had heard of him before and knew that this Guan was a rather rigid person who would not give in to trickery or persuasion. He did not believe it before, but today he saw that it was true.

Yu Shaowu said in a cold voice, "My surname is Guan and I am an old acquaintance of your Captain Shen. Are you sure you want to do this?"
However, Constable Guan did not give him any face. He immediately took out a flare from his waist and pulled the fuse towards the sky. Ten seconds later, the flare flying into the air exploded with a bang.

"It's still urgent if you leave now, otherwise you won't be able to leave when the main force arrives." Yu Shaowu said coldly, "Humph, do you think I'm afraid of you? Is one flare enough? If not, fire another one." He took out a flare from his arms and threw it at Constable Guan.

Constable Guan took the flare and looked down to find that it was actually the flare distributed by the government office.

"Hiss, how is this possible? How could he have the flares issued by the government?"

Yu Shaowu was not in a hurry. He just stood in the yard and was in a stalemate with Constable Guan. At this time, Zhou Chen came behind Constable Guan again.

Half an hour later, everyone heard footsteps outside. At this moment, Constable Guan finally smiled, and soon seven or eight constables rushed into the yard.

However, the gangsters at this time did not show any fear, and some even went up to say hello. Zhou Chen narrowed his eyes slightly, it seems that the county government here is extremely corrupt.

The smile on Constable Guan's face disappeared at this moment, while a smile appeared on Yu Shaowu's face.

Yu Shaowu smiled and said to the detectives behind Zhou Chen and the others, "Brothers, I have some personal matters to take care of. I'll treat you to a drink tomorrow."

"Okay, then Third Brother Yu, you go ahead and do your work. The brothers will leave first," he said without even looking at the other two Constables Guan. He left the yard and closed the gate after leaving.

The moment the gate closed, the thugs took out the axes behind them again, no longer showing any fear, and surrounded the two men.

Constable Guan said angrily, "Are you planning to rebel? If I die here, none of you will be able to escape."

"Hahaha, who said we wanted to kill you? It was clearly the untouchable next to you who killed you. We are just good citizens who came to avenge you."

Zhou Chen smiled bitterly and shook his head. This Guan guy had only practiced martial arts for a few months and was not even at the ninth level. There was no hope for him to deal with these guys.

At this moment, the gangsters were filled with murderous intent, and they raised their axes and rushed towards the two without hesitation. At this moment, a black shadow jumped down from the roof.

He was holding a pitch-black sword. In just one breath, nine thugs were killed, leaving only Yu Shaowu. At this time, the sword was placed on Yu Shaowu's neck.

Yu Shaowu was so frightened that he immediately knelt down. Constable Guan behind him said, "Spare his life," but the man in black did not give him face and directly slashed him with force.

A wound instantly appeared on Yu Shaowu's neck, and blood gushed out uncontrollably.

Seeing this, Constable Guan went up to take down the man in black, but Zhou Chen reached out and grabbed the corner of his clothes, "Constable Guan, don't go, it's dangerous."

In just a moment, the man in black had climbed over the courtyard wall and was out of their sight. Seeing the man in black running away, Constable Guan turned around and asked angrily, "Why are you pulling me?"
Zhou Chen said tremblingly, "Sir, didn't you see that he killed people without blinking an eye? If I hadn't held you back, you would have been killed by him."

Although he was extremely angry, he also knew that he was no match for the man in black. He shook his head and stopped scolding him, instead walking towards Yu Shaowu.

At this time, Yu Shaowu was lying in a pool of blood, his body shaking constantly. Although he covered his neck with his hands in time, it was of no use. The blood was flowing out from between his fingers uncontrollably.
