Chapter 837 445: Return of the Divine Catcher Sisters—Who Will Prevail, the Demon or the Young Hero?
The impact of this canal accident is indeed significant.
The ones most affected are the laborers.
These laborers, who were usually full of energy and disliked the short working hours, have now stopped working altogether, yet their wages are still being paid. Is this really how things should be?
Some people have protested against this.
Duan Yun, who was already annoyed, complained, "If you think you have too much free time, go and do some vigilante justice!"
The Murong brothers commented, "But apart from this major issue, there aren't many people causing trouble here anymore."
Duan Yun said, "Then have them help elderly folks cross the street! Or they can keep the public restrooms clean!"
To solve Wangchun City's sanitation problem, Duan Yun had once built more than fifty public restrooms, aiming to prevent people from causing a mess.
But although the public restrooms were built, they had a problem: they often got clogged.
The Mo Sect Elder was tasked with solving this, but they couldn't come up with a good solution. Perhaps their ambition didn't lie in maintaining restrooms, and they tended to slack off and procrastinate, unwilling to innovate. In the end, they only sent people to unclog them when necessary.
Duan Yun's suggestion to have them help elders and unclog restrooms was initially made in anger, but this group of people took it seriously.
Soon, in Wangchun City, elderly ladies and gentlemen crossing the street were practically carried on people's shoulders, and the restrooms in Wangchun City were exceptionally well-maintained.
Not only were the public restrooms well-maintained, but the private ones were as well.
Because such a group of exceptionally energetic martial artists came to Wangchun City to maintain restrooms, the public restrooms weren't clogged enough to keep them busy, so these laborers often voluntarily serviced private restrooms, almost without charging a fee.
When asked why they didn't charge, the answer was that they had received Duan Yun's blessing, and Young Hero Duan had already paid them.
Duan Yun had no time to concern himself with these positive changes, because he had pressing matters on his mind.
He hadn't yet dealt with the culprit behind the sabotage of the heroic land project—how could he eat or sleep well?
And this evil demon was adept at hiding and tunneling, quite cunning. Suffice it to say, at the moment, he needed the comfort—no, the help—of the Goddess Catcher sisters.
With Little Yin out of commission, they should have a way to find some clues.
To quickly bring the sisters here, Duan Yun dispatched Lei Ying and Little Yin to fetch them, as both had become quite fast runners under his training, rare quick feet.
Lei Ying immediately complained, "Even as the renowned Mrs. Mingqi of Tianzhou, I tolerated you riding me, but now some unknown woman also dares to ride me?"
Duan Yun replied, "Then find this person. If you can find her, I'll let you ride me."
In order to exterminate demons and annihilate the family of the evil demon that angered him, Duan Yun was willing to endure the humiliation of being forcefully ridden by this captive woman.
Compared to the loss of a bit of dignity and avenging an entire family—no, compared to the mission of demon extermination, it was rather insignificant.
Seeing Duan Yun's serious demeanor, Lei Ying didn't dare to complain anymore. She grabbed Little Yin and said, "Let's hit the road quickly!"
It wasn't that she didn't want to ride Old Demon Duan, but she could see Duan Yun's seriousness.
In other words, she could see Duan Yun's determination.
It was clear that if Duan Yun didn't utterly destroy that culprit, he would truly lose his temper.
At that time, forget about riding Duan Yun; who knows what Duan Yun might do to her.
After all, even when Duan Yun wasn't angry, he had her feeling on the brink of life and death, between ecstasy and agony. If he really got mad, she dared not even think about it.
Little Yin also saw this point and quickly packed her luggage to set off.
...
Rainy day, Rain Mountain City.
It wasn't even early spring yet, but the rainy days in Rain Mountain City already had the taste of spring rain.
"The endless drizzle, as fine as sorrow."
Sister Leng Yimeng gazed at the drizzle outside the window, sighing with emotion.
Having just finished the case here, this was supposed to be her rare chance to relax, but Leng Yimeng didn't like this feeling of idleness.
Because when working on a case, her mind was always preoccupied with the investigation, leaving no room for distractions.
But once she relaxed, she couldn't help but let her thoughts wander.
For example, this Rain Mountain City wasn't far from the legendary heroic land.
If that so-called "Heroic Land" expanded a bit further, she might just be standing on it.
She had come to his territory, would he be eager to see her?
After all, she felt he was interested in her.
Otherwise, on the night they first met, why would he want to know her name, even if she didn't tell him?
The frequent encounters afterward, were they fate or his doing?
Hmph, men always create these "chance encounters" to get closer to someone they like.
"Hey, hey."
"Leng Yimeng!"
Only then did Leng Yimeng snap out of her daydream, turning to look at her sister Leng Yixue.
Leng Yixue teased, "What are you daydreaming about? It's not even spring yet."
Leng Yimeng pouted and replied, "You don't understand. It's not daydreaming; it's called having ideals."
Leng Yixue, with a look of disdain, said, "I can't be bothered with you."
Saying this, she also looked out at the scenery.
The two sisters looked nearly identical and happened to rest their ample bosoms on the table to relieve the weight, creating a rather lovely view.
But at that moment, the sound of a sudden commotion reached their ears.
The sisters' eyes focused, and they looked in the direction of the noise.
This was a sub-bureau of the Qingqi Bureau, a place even more dignified than a government office, where loud commotion was rare, so it was usually very quiet.
It was precisely because it was quiet that the noisy footsteps stood out as unusual.
Because the pace was too fast.
The next moment, the owner of those footsteps had already entered the sisters' line of sight.
