  Chapter 22 This is
  the "City Guards Inspection" in Shangcheng District.

  When Zhang Cishun opened the door, the City Guards who were holding weapons and showing vigilance lowered their guns slightly.

  The leading city guard showed him his ID, but he only showed them the cover and didn't even bother to open it.

  "Stand against the wall and assist in the inspection."

  After speaking in a routine manner, Zhang Cishun and Jing Shuo were forced to stand against the wall, with their hands placed where the inspector could see them, and another person began to inspect them. Conduct a body search.

  Jing Shuo seemed very uncomfortable. On the one hand, he didn't have his weapon on him, and there were so many city guards in front of him. If something happened, he might not be able to cause a fatal counterattack. The other side was that he had never been treated like this.

  People in Xiacheng District will not let strangers get close easily, because at this distance, if the other person is not kind, his life will be fatally threatened.

  The city guards didn't say anything about Jing Shuo's abnormal behavior. In other words, they had seen many people who were even worse than what he showed.

  In Shangcheng District, the City Guards are law enforcers, judges, and a synthesis of all violent organs. Normal residents of the upper city will inevitably have a natural fear of the city guards.

  "Watch information check."

  After the inspection, a city guard used his watch to call up the system, waiting for Zhang Cishun and Jing Shuo to provide their identities for household registration review.

  "Wu Yan, go search the room."

  After the voice fell, a city guard who was in the corridor stepped out. With the gun in hand, he walked into the room to inspect it.

  Zhang Cishun glanced at him, and then looked away.

  After tapping his finger on the watch, he showed his identity to the city guards.

  "Zuoling?" When he saw this name, the city guard who was inspecting was surprised. After looking up and down at Zhang Cishun for a few times, he lowered his head and continued to check other information in the household registration information called up on his watch.

  Zhang Cishun's heart moved, and he suddenly asked: "Is there anything wrong with my name?"

  The city guard raised his head.

  "Evil, I think you seem surprised." Zhang Cishun added.

  Hearing Zhang Cishun's words, the city guard in front of him lowered his head, looked at Zhang Cishun's household registration information, and said, "Have you read the wanted order? Your name is the same as the wanted criminal Zuo Yan's brother on the wanted order. The names are the same."

  "That's really unfortunate." Zhang Cishun pretended to sigh.

  The city guard in front of him probably never thought in his life that Zuo Ling's identity was real, but it was the identity of the corpse dug out of the garbage dump that Zhang Cishun borrowed.

  Unexpectedly, the two people in front of me sneaked into their city health bureau on a rainy night yesterday and changed their household registration information!
  "Damn it."

  After checking that there was no problem, he looked at Jing Shuo again.

  Jing Shuo imitated Zhang Cishun and gave out his identity information, but the city guard did not log the information he gave into his watch immediately.

  Instead, he looked at the watch on Jing Shuo's wrist and asked,

  "Is this your watch? Why does it look like this?"

  Jing Shuo naturally used his own watch instead of the Wilderness Army's watch last night. Therefore, the appearance is not an exaggeration to describe as rubbish. Several flying wires are exposed and only a few layers of insulation are used for protection.

  "After doing research, it was dismantled... it was broken... I could only simply repair it and make do with it," Jing Shuo said.

  City Guardsman: "..."

  After being quiet for a while, he said: "The hands-on ability is quite strong."

  After saying that, he quickly logged in with the identity mentioned by Jingshuo before, looked at the photo displayed on the watch, and immediately made contact with him Made a comparison.

  Fortunately, it's better than that.

  The city guard breathed a visible sigh of relief and said, "It's best not to disassemble the watch casually. It will be very troublesome if it is broken. Especially at this time. I will give you a ticket and go to the city guard bureau in a few days to pay the fine." Got it."

  As he said that, he took out a small notebook from his pocket, wrote something on it, tore it off and handed it to Jing Shuo.

  Jing Shuo: "..."

  He took it silently without saying a word.

  "Wuyan?" The city guard shouted into the house after completing the inspection.

  Wu Yan checked very carefully, going through almost every corner and corner under the bed, in the closet.

  No one was found, but...

  "Does this thing belong to you?"

  When he heard the voice, Jing Shuo's body tensed up, but when he saw the thing in Wu Yan's hand who walked out of the room, he remained silent. Relaxed.

  Bloody bandages.

  Zhang Cishun had used it to tie up his palm before, but it had been wet last night and the wound had scabbed, so the bandage was of little use. He untied it and placed it near the head of the bed.

  "My hand was injured a while ago, it's for bandage." Zhang Cishun opened his palm and showed his scabbed wound to the city guards.

  The nearest city guard took a look and saw that it was indeed scabbed. So he gave Wu Yan a reassuring look.

  Not to mention that the identities of these two people are recorded in the household registration. Just looking at the injury, it is obvious that it will not scab over in a day or two. In other words, he was injured before the chaos of the parade.

  Wu Yan received the message from his companion, nodded, and placed the bandage on the nearest table. After the inspection, we started walking out.

  But when he came to the computer, he couldn't help but take another look at the messy code, feeling a little dizzy.

  He couldn't understand it, but it looked very profound.

  "Go slowly, thank you for your hard work."

  Zhang Cishun sent people out.

  But I don't know which sentence was wrong. Almost all the city guards were stunned for a moment, and then looked at Zhang Cishun. After a few seconds, they looked back.

  Wu Yan was walking at the back with a complicated expression.

  Just when his teammates knocked on the door next door, he said to Zhang Cishun: "You... are the first to tell us about our hard work. Thank you." At this time, Zhang Cishun was stunned

  .

  The person who opened the door next door and walked out was a fat man with messy hair and sleepy eyes. There was also a gun in his hand.

  When he saw that the person knocking on the door was a city guard, he suddenly cursed. While cursing, he put down his gun and gave out his identity information.

  It's very contradictory and confusing.

  But the city guards showed no expression, as if they were used to it.

  Zhang Cishun suddenly seemed to understand something. There was nothing wrong with the City Guards being a complex of violent agencies in Shangcheng District, but they had to act according to the rules of Shangcheng District.

  And what are the rules uptown?
  It's power, it's background, it's relationship.

  What is suppressed under these interlocking chains is the law.

  In an uptown area where the population is not mobile, the changes in interpersonal relationships are intense and slow. Time will always brand everyone in the uptown area with various labels. And these labels gave them the confidence to curse when facing the city guards.

  The thing on the chain can ensure that they will not get into trouble no matter how unpleasant the curse is.

  What worked under the chains was that they only gave the city guards the right to fight back after they took action against them.

  This is Shangcheng District
  ...this is the reason why they were stunned.
