Following the discussion, most chose to remain, while some opted out of their constable roles due to the fear of offending Ms. Zhang.

The prevailing sentiment, however, emphasized the importance of having a backbone as men. If Governor Su wasnt afraid of potential consequences, why should they be?

A few adopted a wait-and-see approach, while Poxed Face w.a.n.g, the other two clerks and stewards, and the constables directly involved in Ms. Zhangs apprehension chose to stay. They reasoned that even if they had to resign, it was acceptable given their active role in Ms. Zhangs arrest.

Among the twenty-four constables, seven decided to quit, and only one of the new recruits left.

Liu Dazhuang found himself in an awkward position as the head of the bailiffs. Despite being the most capable and charismatic, he was taken aback that half of his chosen team valued their lives over courage.

Contrary to his expectations, the newcomers, though initially perceived as mere handymen, had successfully navigated intricate tests devised by Mr. Chen. These evaluations involved deliberately creating trouble or disputes to gauge their problem-solving abilities and character.

The remaining recruits were resilient individuals with unwavering determination.

Liu Dazhuang, wearing a grim expression, cautioned those on the brink of leaving, Youre free to resign, but if I discover that youve leaked information, dont blame me for taking ruthless measures!

He understood that some of these individuals had ties to the bandits, while others sought to appease Ms. Zhang.

Recognizing Liu Dazhuangs formidable reputation, the departing individuals a.s.sured him in unison, We absolutely wont leak any information.

Handing over the list of resignations to Su Bin, Liu Dazhuang watched as Su Bin perused the names, a smile forming on his face. This is excellent. We can promptly weed out the unqualified individuals.

Remember, as constables, act accordingly!

Su Bin then informed Liu Dazhuang and the others, The worlds foremost martial arts leader, Xiao Hong, will arrive in Shanglin in a few days. Lets not give the martial arts heroes a reason to mock us.

Liu Dazhuangs eyes widened. Leader of the martial arts world? Xiao Hong? Coming to Shanglin? Along with other martial arts heroes?

As someone well-versed in martial arts, Liu Dazhuang held a deep admiration for the martial arts heroes, particularly the leader of the martial arts world, Xiao Hong, who served as his idol.

Upon learning of Xiao Hongs impending visit and the presence of martial arts heroes, Liu Dazhuang swiftly grasped the purpose of their arrival.

Theyve been invited by the governor to deal with the mountain bandits, havent they?

Su Bins smile confirmed Liu Dazhuangs correct deduction.

With these formidable individuals in action, there was no longer any concern about eliminating the mountain bandits.

Governor Su had indeed orchestrated an impressive plan!

Liu Dazhuangs resolve to stay became even more steadfast. Unfazed by Ms. Zhang, they obediently followed Su Bins instructions.

As Ms. Zhang approached the government office, she entered with an air of arrogance.

Kneel!

The constables on both sides shouted in unison.

Resistant to kneeling, Ms. Zhang received a forceful kick from Liu Dazhuang, compelling her to kneel. The pain in her knees intensified, fueling her seething hatred toward Liu Dazhuangwis.h.i.+ng she could flay him alive. Similar sentiments extended to Su Bin.

Su Bin initiated the trial, during which Ms. Zhang adamantly refused to confess and persisted in a.s.serting that w.a.n.g Nians confession was fabricated.

At that moment, the constable who had retrieved w.a.n.g Nians handwriting returned.

Upon comparison, the handwriting on the two pieces of paper proved to be identical..
