As soon as Shang Jingchuan arrived, the two guards knew well enough to greet him as Lord.
Shang Jingchuan nodded, entered the hall, and first had a cup of tea before continuing to review the case files.
These were mostly dusty old cases, many of which involved people who were long dead, revealing their antiquity.
So Shang Jingchuan categorically organized these files, placing the ancient ones aside and the relatively recent ones on the other side.
Through his investigation, he discovered that roughly ten years ago, complaints against the Four Seas Gang began to increase, peaking eight years ago, before rapidly declining, with no further complaints to this day.
This certainly did not mean the Four Seas Gang had reformed; rather, it indicated that the populace had lost hope and dared not complain further.
The more this happened, the more Shang Jingchuan felt a suffocated anger in his heart.
