Chapter 366: How much money, is it worth risking your life?

Not sleeping in the middle of the night and suddenly barging into the Heavenly Prison is against the rules!

At present, there are no major cases or big cases, and I haven't heard of any cases that need to be handled urgently. The higher-ups haven't issued any official documents requiring the Heavenly Prison to cooperate with the Six Sects either.

So why did this group of Six Sects people barge in in the middle of the night?

"Who are you..."

"I am Chen Guanlou, a prison clerk of the Jia-sized prison."

"You are Prison Clerk Chen. I am Squad Leader Yang of the Six Sects; I think you should have heard of me."

"So it is Commandant Yang, nice to meet you. I have long heard that Commandant Yang is experienced in handling cases, and there has never been a case you handled that you couldn't crack. Eh, when did Commandant Yang return to the capital? I always thought you were still away on business."

"Returned to the capital two days ago."

"Squad Leader Yang just returned, not resting, but wanting to handle a case? What is it tonight..." Chen Guanlou looked at the six people on the other side; most of the faces were familiar, but they were only familiar in the sense that he knew there was such a person, whether public or private, he hadn't dealt with them.

"Coming over tonight is to interrogate an imprisoned official. Please, Prison Clerk Chen, make it convenient."

"Interrogate whom?" Chen Guanlou asked.

"An imprisoned official named Liu Xianghe."

Liu Xianghe?

Chen Guanlou remembered; he was imprisoned in Squad Leader Wu's jurisdiction, an inconspicuous local official. The crime was nothing more than corruption and bribery. However, privately, there were rumors that this person stood on the wrong side, which was why he was liquidated.

Officialdom, after all, other charges might need to be considered for truth or falsehood, but the charge of corruption and bribery, casually pinning it on an official, is definitely not wrong.

Chen Guanlou put on his clothes and called the prison guards to lead the way. "Is there another major case?"

He was just chatting, wanting to ask about the situation.

As a result, the Six Sects people were like clams. Only Squad Leader Yang responded, "Hmm, actually it's a new clue to an old case. Coming over in the middle of the night, sorry to trouble Prison Clerk Chen."

"No trouble. Brothers in the same system, no need to be so polite."

Chen Guanlou said it was not polite, but he had been pondering in his heart. Since it was a new clue to an old case, there was no need to stay up late to interrogate prisoners without sleeping in the middle of the night. How much money did the Imperial Court give, is it worth risking one's life? And it wasn't a newly issued major case.

Arriving at the cell door, the prison guard had already woken Liu Xianghe up one step ahead.

Liu Xianghe looked confused, looking at the Six Sects people, his eyes were clearly confused, and he hadn't come back to his senses yet.

Chen Guanlou asked Squad Leader Yang, "Are you asking here, or do you want me to prepare an empty room for you? The torture room side definitely won't work; the people in the torture room are not there, and I don't have the key."

Unexpectedly, Squad Leader Yang said: "I want to take this person away. Please, Prison Clerk Chen, make it convenient."

"Take away?" Chen Guanlou raised his eyebrows, "Take away a prisoner in the middle of the night? Squad Leader Yang, this is against the rules. There is no such thing as taking away a prisoner in the middle of the night. Why not interrogate in the Heavenly Prison, and I will immediately arrange for someone to prepare an empty room for you, how about that?"

"This is not very good. It's better to take him away and interrogate him at our Six Sects."

"Cannot go to the Six Sects, cannot go to the Six Sects!" The confused Liu Xianghe suddenly woke up and shouted, "Prison Clerk Chen, I am your person; you cannot let the Six Sects take me away! Prison Clerk Chen, save me, I have money, I really have money."

"Shut up!" Squad Leader Yang scolded sternly. The people under his hand even drew the waist swords, threatening Liu Xianghe that if he dared to make a sound again, he would be slashed.

Seeing this, Chen Guanlou laughed immediately.

He looked at the few people from the Six Sects with a smile that wasn't a smile, "Taking away a prisoner in the middle of the night, let alone whether it is against the rules. Since you want to take him away, then we must do things according to official business. Please, Squad Leader Yang, show the official document, and after going through the procedures, you can take the prisoner away."

"Prison Clerk Chen... woo woo..." The prison guard took action one step ahead, directly covering Liu Xianghe's mouth, "Don't disturb the adult's work; the adult has his own ideas."

This prison guard was very clever, his brain was agile.

Chen Guanlou looked at it and remembered the other party's appearance.

Squad Leader Yang was silent.

Chen Guanlou was happy, "Squad Leader Yang, you wouldn't have come without an official document, would you? Then I'm sorry, without an official document, no one can take the prisoner away. Even if the Brocade Uniform Guard came, it would be the same rule. I am not intentionally making things difficult for you, and you also know that being an official is not easy now. Without an official document, without going through the procedures, you take the prisoner away and leave, and in a few days, if the prisoner has an accident, and you don't admit it, the Heavenly Prison will have to take the blame. It's better to go through the procedures; if there is an official document, take the person away; if there is no official document, interrogate in the Heavenly Prison."

His proposal was a matter of course. Public to public, it should go through complete procedures. It was impossible to take the prisoner away just because of a word from the Six Sects.

What if the prisoner died outside, what if the prisoner disappeared, what if the prisoner killed someone outside, who would be responsible? What if the Six Sects didn't admit it and said they didn't take the prisoner, then all the responsibility would be on the Heavenly Prison. After all, without an official document, without going through the procedures, you say the Six Sects took the prisoner, who can prove it?

The higher-ups don't care about your witnesses; the higher-ups only recognize official documents. Official documents are created to go through procedures, avoid shirking responsibility, and mutual buck-passing.

"Prison Clerk Chen really won't make it convenient?" Squad Leader Yang asked.

Chen Guanlou looked embarrassed, "It's not that I won't make it convenient for you brothers, but the rules are like this. If you want to take the prisoner away, you must produce an official document and go through the procedures. Squad Leader Yang, you also show understanding for me; if I let you take the prisoner away without handling the procedures, if something happens, who will be responsible?"

"How about this, I will write a note for you in my own handwriting, how about that?"

"Not how about that." Chen Guanlou sneered, wanting to take away a prisoner with just a mere

A fart of recognition!

"It won't be long before dawn. How about this, Commandant Yang, you go back first, and after dawn, when you have completed the procedures, send someone with the official documents to take the person. You can rest assured, the prisoner is locked in the cell and can't go anywhere. You can come whenever you want. I will be here these few days."

Chen Guanlou was very polite, wanting to send this group of people away as quickly as possible. After returning, he could still get a good night's sleep.

Coming to interrogate a prisoner in the middle of the night, they really managed to think of that.

"What if I insist on taking the prisoner away right now?" Commandant Yang had a smile on his face, but his eyes appeared sinister and cold.

Chen Guanlou showed a look of mockery, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, "I didn't expect Commandant Yang to tell jokes too, I've seen it all now."

The prison guards also realized something was wrong, and one after another they took their positions, surrounding the people from the Six Shanmen in the middle.

The people from the Six Shanmen held their sword hilts, preparing to draw their blades and hack people at any moment.
