The onlookers all fell silent, staring at Nie Hu in astonishment.
Especially when they heard Nie Hu mention the name Mr. Qin, they were even more taken aback.
They were all copper state constables, having served in Lingzhou for many years, so they naturally knew of Nie Hu's temperament.
Hot-tempered, dismissive of others, and fearless.
Just these traits alone were enough to explain Nie Hu's character.
But now, Nie Hu was addressing the newly appointed copper state constable as "brother," prompting many to speculate in secret.
Either this Qin-named copper state constable had a strong background, or he possessed strength that commanded Nie Hu's respect.
They leaned towards the latter.
If it were the former, Qin An wouldn't be here alone.
Zhou Mo saw Nie Hu approaching, and especially when he was in Nie Hu's line of sight, it felt as if he were being watched by a fierce beast, making him not dare to speak another word.
