Chapter 87 Dare to strike? I'll scare you to death!
The Procuratorate, Office of the Chief Inspector.
Judge Lu sat behind his desk, his hand pausing as he reviewed documents, a thought stirring within him.
If I do some quick calculations...
His eyes, which had been slightly narrowed, unconsciously opened a little wider.
He chuckled and said, "Heh, good lad, you managed to bring back a pretty girl after just one trip."
"But don't forget about your job."
As he spoke, he raised his hand and a simple, thick book, seemingly imbued with some power of rules, floated slowly from the bookshelf beside him and landed steadily in his hand.
Looking at the Book of Life and Death in his hand, he had a slight thought, and a Book of Life and Death, which was even smaller than the Book of Life and Death, slowly separated out.
After doing everything, he threw the original Life and Death Puzzle over, leaving only the Dividing Puzzle Book, and waited for Jiang Chen's arrival.
"Red-clothed, once we're inside, remember not to say a word."
"Yes, that's exactly it, excellent!"
The main entrance of the Inspectorate headquarters building.
Jiang Chen gave the woman in red an emergency training session.
He didn't want to go inside and see Judge Lu.
To prevent the woman in red from saying or doing something wrong and causing trouble.
When it comes to my turn, he won't have the right to speak.
Therefore, explaining things clearly now is more important than anything else.
"Red-clad, did you remember everything I just said?"
Jiang Chen gave him another warning.
Red dress: ...
She nodded helplessly again.
This is the fifth time she has been warned.
Am I really that stupid?!
"red……"
Upon seeing the other person, she still had to say that she, in red, could no longer stand it.
She answered quickly, "Don't say anything, don't do anything, big brother, you've said it five times already, I've got it!"
"Uh..." Upon hearing this, Jiang Chen scratched his head awkwardly.
Sensing the resentful look in the red-clad woman's eyes, he chuckled awkwardly.
Without saying another word, she led the woman in red to the door of Judge Lu's office.
"Knock knock knock!"
"Come in!"
A deep and authoritative voice came from inside the door.
Jiang Chen took a deep breath, pushed open the door, and entered. The woman in red followed closely behind, remembering what Jiang Chen had told her: "Don't say anything, don't do anything!"
In the office, Lu Pan sat upright behind a large desk, with a small booklet that glowed with a faint light and exuded a subtle aura of rules on his right.
He glanced at Jiang Chen, his gaze lingering on the man in red for a moment. His eyes seemed calm, yet they appeared to penetrate the soul and see through everything.
Looking into those eyes, the woman in red felt as if her entire body and even her soul had been laid bare.
This made her feel slightly horrified.
He quickly lowered his head even further.
"You're back." Judge Lu withdrew his gaze and continued to review the documents, his tone revealing neither joy nor sorrow.
"Yes, I'm back." Jiang Chen clasped his hands in a respectful greeting.
"Now that you're back, why aren't you doing your work? What are you doing here?"
"Um... this..."
In that instant, Jiang Chen felt a chill run down his spine.
They wanted to just run away.
He had almost forgotten that he had a job.
"Lu, Judge Lu, I just missed you."
"so……"
"Fine, just shut up then." Lu Pan interrupted directly, scoffing, "You think you're the only one who misses me?"
"You don't come here unless you have a reason. Spit it out, can't you see I'm busy?!"
"Yes, sir!"
Seeing such a shameless leader, the woman in red slightly parted her red lips.
Now she knows why the fat man got along so well with the other person.
They're equally shameless and brazen; how could they not get along?!
It's true that birds of a feather flock together.
Feeling the strange gaze from the woman in red, Jiang Chen secretly groaned.
"Damn it, what a heroic and magnificent image I have!"
Jiang Chen sighed softly, knowing that now was not the time to worry about his image.
He quickly explained the purpose of his visit.
"Boss, haven't I found a great subordinate in that world?"
"So I would like to ask you to write me a note."
"Look at this matter..."
However, before he could finish speaking, Lu Pan raised his hand.
A note that had been prepared beforehand floated up automatically.
Then it flew wobbly to Jiang Chen's front.
Jiang Chen was overjoyed upon seeing this.
He reached out and took it.
Upon unfolding it, it was indeed found to bear the unique aura of Judge Lu.
Without saying a word, Jiang Chen clasped his hands in thanks and said, "Thank you, Judge Lu, for granting my request!"
Out of the corner of my eye, I saw the woman in red standing there dumbfounded.
Jiang Chen was anxious and quickly sent a telepathic message: "Hey, what are you doing?"
"Quickly thank him! Judge Lu has agreed!"
"How can you be so clueless!"
Hearing the voice transmission in her ear, the woman in red was completely speechless.
Her lips twitched, but she didn't hold back and retorted directly, "Didn't you say we shouldn't say or do anything?"
"Why are you blaming me now?!"
"I, you..."
Jiang Chen was speechless.
Behind his desk, Judge Lu listened to the two ghosts' telepathic communication, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously turned up slightly.
But it was fleeting.
Below, the woman in red rolled her eyes at Jiang Chen.
She bowed slightly, her red lips parted slightly: "This humble woman thanks you, Judge Lu!"
Upon hearing this, he simply nodded and said nothing more.
Instead, she turned her gaze back to Jiang Chen and raised her hand again.
Immediately afterwards, a small booklet emanating a faint aura of rules slowly flew over.
"Judge Lu, what is this?!"
Jiang Chen reached out and took it, but after playing with it for a while, he couldn't figure out what it was.
He asked out of curiosity.
"This is a separate sub-book from the Book of Life and Death, which records information about all those in the area who are about to die."
As he finished speaking, Lu Pan slightly raised his head, his weathered eyes fixed intently on Jiang Chen below.
"Have you forgotten what your job is?"
"Would you like me to help you remember?"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Chen felt a chill run from the soles of his feet straight to the top of his head.
Even though he is a ghost messenger, he doesn't sweat.
But by then, his back was already soaked with sweat.
The woman in red standing nearby was secretly alarmed by what she saw.
One second they were laughing and talking, but the next second...
She stopped thinking about it and silently lowered her head to minimize her presence.
"Oh, do you remember now?"
Judge Lu asked in a lukewarm tone.
"I remember now."
Jiang Chen replied in a dry voice.
"As a soul-reaping messenger of the underworld, what is your primary task?"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Chen replied without hesitation: "Call upon the soul, guide the deceased into the underworld to be judged, and finally send them to reincarnation."
"Good to know. That booklet contains the tasks you owe. Go now."
"Never forget your job."
"yes!"
Jiang Chen clasped his hands in a fist salute, then grabbed the woman in red beside him and vanished from the office in an instant.
Behind his desk, sensing the disappearance of the two ghosts' auras, Judge Lu slightly raised his head, his expression still serious.
But I was still quite happy.
"You brat, I'll teach you to strike! I'll scare you to death!"
……
At the entrance of the Inspectorate headquarters building.
"Huff, huff, huff, huff!"
"Red... Red dress, quick, quick, help me up, my legs are a little weak!"
