A post-apocalyptic female soul travels back to the War of Resistance against Japan

Cheng Ying calmly crossed her arms and said, "Sure, whatever, go ahead!"

"What!" Not only was Bai Sha stunned, but even Zhang Youcai didn't know what expression to make.

Zhang Youcai was stunned for a moment, then immediately shouted, "No, are you not going to save me?"

Cheng Ying nodded and said, "I won't save you. You can go in peace!"

"Lord Zhang, I will have someone burn paper money for you. You don't need to worry about your concubines and mistresses; they will be taken care of. You can leave in peace!"

After a moment of stunned silence, it took Zhang Youcai a long time to come to his senses. He cried out, "No! Duke, please don't abandon me!"

Even knowing that Bai Sha wouldn't hurt him, it still felt really bad to be given up on so easily. Was he, a dignified county magistrate, really that worthless?

Overwhelmed with grief, Magistrate Zhang forgot that Bai Sha was only pretending to be a kidnapper. In a fit of anger, he pushed away the knife held to Bai Sha's neck and began to curse at him.

"It's all your fault for coming up with such a terrible idea! Look at me, I've been abandoned! Waaaaah!"

Fortunately, he was crying and yelling at the same time, and before he could explain himself, Bai Sha covered his mouth with one hand.

Just as Bai Sha was about to put the knife back to his neck, his arm was knocked away by something flying in from nowhere.

The knife in his hand was knocked away, and then he was kicked hard by a small foot. Immediately afterwards, two large knives were held to his neck. By the time he tried to move, it was too late.

Other members of the Blood Fiend Gang also failed to escape because their escape routes were blocked!

Anyone who resisted with weapons was either knocked unconscious or killed on the spot.

This immediately shocked most of the Blood Fiend Gang members. Even though they were all desperate criminals, they were also very afraid of death. With one person dead, no one dared to continue their reckless advance.

Moreover, no matter which direction the Blood Fiend Gang members ran from, it seemed as if an invisible wall blocked their way, and the only way they could pass was through the road blocked by the constables.

In the end, there was no other way but to give up.

After everyone was subdued, Zhang Youcai scrambled away from the Blood Fiend Gang. He had just caught his breath when he looked up and saw the little girl from before staring at him curiously.

Although the little girl was very cute, she was still angry when she thought about how he hadn't wanted to save her earlier, and said, "Why didn't you let someone save me just now?"

"Am I, this official, so unworthy of being saved?"

Cheng Ying laughed heartily, "Hahaha, Magistrate Zhang, aren't you doing just fine now? You don't need us to save you; you can save yourself, can't you?"

The words Zhang Youcai was about to say were immediately swallowed back down!

However, it seems they haven't discovered his and Bai Sha's premeditated plot. Although they failed to let Bai Sha escape, the issues still need to be resolved!

After Zhang Youcai calmed down, he finally met the Duke of Anguo and the mysterious eunuch that Master Tong had mentioned.

When he saw Ye Wuhen and Ye Jinxuan, he remembered that he had met the two of them not long ago.

He pointed at the two men and said, "Aren't you the two boys who asked me to find someone a while ago with His Highness Prince Rui's token?"

Ye Wuhen nodded and said, "Yes! I should also thank Magistrate Zhang for his help to us back then!"

Magistrate Zhang chuckled and said, "No need to thank me. Actually, I wasn't much of a help, hehe!"

Ye Jinxuan breathed a sigh of relief before saying, "Since you weren't of any help, then we won't thank you."

"Because we are still children, we don't have any money. Luckily you didn't help, otherwise we would have had to find a way to get money to pay you."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Youcai immediately broke out in a cold sweat.

My goodness, what kind of child is this? No one should keep a child like this. Someone should take him back right away!

In front of so many people, he clearly knew that they had come to him with His Highness Prince Rui's token to do things for him, yet he still wanted payment. Wasn't he just courting death in a roundabout way?

His cheeks twitched involuntarily, and he said, extremely embarrassed:

"No need, no need for payment. Since you came to me with His Highness Prince Rui's token, it was my duty to do it. Besides, it was just a small favor, so there's no need to pay me."

Ye Wuhen and Ye Jinxuan nodded, suppressing a laugh. "Yes, we understand!"

Zhang Youcai secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the matter was finally over.

But just then, he heard Duke Anguo ask him a question.

"Magistrate Zhang, what are your plans for dealing with these Blood Fiend Gang members?"

Zhang Youcai asked in confusion, "What should we deal with? It's just two gangs fighting. If they're both at fault, then we should each get a slap on the wrist. If they do it again, we'll arrest them. What do you think?"

Duke Jiang Hao of Anguo was so angry at Zhang Youcai that he laughed. He couldn't help but say angrily, "Magistrate Zhang, is this how you always handle cases?"

Zhang Youcai was taken aback by the Duke of Anguo's shout and cautiously asked, "No,..."

Even the eunuch Yuanfu, who was standing to the side, couldn't stand it anymore. He interrupted Zhang Youcai and pointed at the Blood Fiend Gang members, saying, "Don't you ever ask what happened when you're handling a case?"
