Chapter 802: Chapter 800: That Kid Ran Away _1
The pursuing soldiers gradually realized that something was wrong. Instead of closing the distance between them, it seemed to grow.
A cold gleam flashed across his eyes as he slowed down, drew his bow, and aimed an arrow at Shitou’s back.
“Whoosh.”
A cold arrow shot from behind, startling Shitou. He listened to the wind and determined the arrow’s location, spinning his body mid-air to avoid the fast-approaching arrow.
“Damn, they’re really shooting! I’m done playing with you guys.”
Shitou hardened his heart, pulled off the bundle from his back, and threw it in the air.
...
“Whoosh.”
Hundreds of indictment papers fell from the roof like snowflakes, covering the streets and alleys.
“What are these?”
“Indictment papers!”
“Are these the Magistrate’s charges?”
The soldiers that chased Shitou from the alley stopped in their tracks, looking at the scattered papers. As they read the contents, they stared at each other in shock, their astonishment reaching new heights.
“Let that kid get away.”
The soldier on the roof missed his shot and lost the opportunity, watching Shitou run away with resentment and frustration.
“What do we do now? Do we report it to the Magistrate?”
Soldier A, looking at the indictment papers on the ground, broke out into a cold sweat.
“You idiot! Are you trying to hasten your own death? Hurry up and pick them up, burn them, and don’t let anyone see.”
Soldier B glared at him then bent down to pick up the papers under his feet.
“Right, right, right. Pick them up quickly, go back and don’t say anything, act like we didn’t see anything.”
The remaining soldiers chanted in unison and bent down to pick up the papers, chaotically scrambling about.
The same thing occurred in various parts of Jizhou City.
Lin Jinlong and Feng Yi also struggled to escape a group of patrolling soldiers, running around Jizhou City before finally shaking off their pursuers.
Wang Meng and Lin Jinpeng had a similar experience. Although they didn’t encounter soldiers, they fought a few moves with the guards of some wealthy families’ residences.
Luckily, those guards weren’t highly skilled in martial arts and quickly gave up chasing them when they realized the intruders had no intention of stealing or hurting people. They all went back to their posts.
Towards dawn, the barking dogs in Jizhou City grew quiet.

“Publicizing the crimes worked well; people are discussing it in the streets today.”
“The public has long been dissatisfied with the Jizhou Magistrate’s tyranny, oppression of loyal and upright officials, and inaction during the epidemic. Now is the perfect time to expose his crimes.”

After spending half the night causing a ruckus, the several comrades returned to their temporary shelter in the woods, crawled into their tents, and slept until they naturally woke up.
Mo Canglan, who bore a heavy responsibility, went to the Relief Medical Hall under the pretext of getting medical attention. When he returned in the evening, the usual calm and collected young man seemed a bit excited, his eyes sparkling.
“What’s next? Did Master give any instructions?”
Feng Yi and Shitou were excited and full of energy, ready for action. It seemed like their strength was endless.
“Yes.”
Wang Meng nodded with a grin.
“What?”
Everyone turned to look at him.
“Wait.”
Wang Meng said calmly.
“Wait?!”
“What do you mean?”
Everyone looked confused, their smiles frozen on their faces.
“Master told us to be patient and wait for news from the Imperial Court.”
Wang Meng carefully remembered his teacher’s orders and patiently explained it to the others.
“Imperial Court spies are everywhere, and there are bound to be some in Jizhou City. They will not be indifferent when they see the indictment papers. If they investigate this matter, the Jizhou Magistrate will definitely have nowhere to run.”
