If the Water Margin

Chapter 171 Justice that belongs to the individual

"Is this person here?" Ximen Qing felt that he had found something extremely important, and he hurriedly asked.

"This person..." The big teapot showed an embarrassed expression: "Actually, I don't like to ask about these things. Most of what I hear is transmitted to my ears when others talk about it. There is indeed such a thing, but if you want me to say which little one it is and who it is hooked up with, I can't tell.

"The person I'm looking for may be him." Ximen Qing said with a chisel and sincere attitude: "This is related to the life of the villain. Please help me more. Don't worry, as long as you can help me find out, I have a lot of money. I would like to give you 1,000 taels as a reward. Ximen Qing stretched out a finger high and made a resolute movement and tone.

One thousand taels, which is an astronomical figure for a normal person and can't earn money in his life. Ximen Qing's promise can be said to be a desperate gamble. The total remuneration he received on this matter is only 30,000 taels, and these 30,000 taels will be used in the future. It seems to be a lot, but in fact, it is actually tight. If you can survive, the cost of running away after defeating Wu Song, the cost of getting up and down, the cost of making a living, and the cost of hiding your name are all astronomical figures. However, about this little guy and the woman who may appear behind him, it is the key to moving to Wusong. It is impossible for Ximen Qing to save money on this issue. He promised the number of 1,000 taels from the bottom of his heart. He wanted to convey his emotions to the big teapot. At the same time, he also felt that it was like a big teapot. Such a person deserves this reward.

The big teapot was stunned for a moment. Obviously, this number surprised him. After a long time, he said, "You're right, right? One thousand taels. This number is too big, which makes me tremble. What's the matter? Can you tell me in detail so that I can help you better? Otherwise, I dare not accept such a large sum of money. To be honest, although I make this big teapot in a brothel that makes others despise, I still think I am a good law-abiding person. If you do any illegal hook-up through this investigation, I will never agree. Therefore, you must explain that as long as what you say is reasonable, I will not take any pennily and will definitely help you investigate it. After the big teapot finished speaking, he sat quietly in the chair, waiting for Ximen Qing's expression peacefully.

What should I do? Tell the truth? Tell this big teapot that you are fighting against Wu Song? No, no, no, this is really too stupid. In that case, no matter how upright people are, they will be timid. After all, this is not a confrontation on the same basis. It is equivalent to mortals and gods fighting, and no rational person will not join their camp. However, this person seems to have a sense of justice, so try to explain it from the direction of justice, which may work. After all, Ximen Qingtai needs the help of the director of the big teapot.

"For this reason, please allow me to call you sir. I think you are a respectable person, and even when I speak, I have unconsciously used 'you' several times. Now please continue to allow me to say so. I don't ask your name, it's not disrespectful to you, but what I'm doing now is very dangerous. I don't know your name, so that you can not be implicated. I hope you understand my good intentions. Ximenqing didn't say anything directly. He needed to continue to earn the favor of the big teapot.

"I heard the respect in the words of the staff, and it is precisely because of this that as long as the matter does not violate the national law, I am willing to help outside the staff, even if I am in danger, I will not hesitate to say it. If you still look at the bottom, tell each other bluntly that don't go around in any circle. The big teapot looked at Ximenqing with a sincere face.

"The thing is that I have recently been collecting criminal materials of a heinous person. I got relevant information this afternoon that this person had a very strange out-of-town activity recently. After analysis, I felt that there was nothing good about going out of the city this time, so I immediately followed the direction of the line report. Sure enough, after a detailed search, a body was found. The body was dressed in clothes with the word Shuixie. The cloth and color of the clothes can reflect that he was a servant or a clerk in Rouge Lane, so I followed this clue. That's the cause of the matter." Ximen Qing pinched his head and tail, and at the same time deliberately hid some details, such as who the heinous person was, the specific killing time, and the location of the body, etc.

"Oh, that's it." The big teapot touched its chin and continued to think about it for a while, "I have a different view on this point. I think these little guys are all scum among the scum. Don't laugh at me when you say it. If it's not under the control of national law, I guess I will kill several people in anger. Their death is for this Langqian. It's really a good thing for Kun. However, there is a national law, and it is not my turn to walk for heaven, and sometimes I feel a little depressed. Therefore, if the staff member said that someone killed the young man of Shuixie Pavilion, I think it was mostly because the little man was wrong and then forced him to hurry up and then kill him. I heard what you said just now that the body was found outside the city. These little men did not leave the city easily. If they go out of the city, they will probably do something to coerce others. Such behavior can be regarded as a causal manifestation when it is punished. Yuanwai just said that a heinous person did such a thing. I think you should forgive his sins and get rid of the wicked because of the fact that he killed the villain, which is exactly the manifestation of repentance of the villain himself. Put down the butcher's knife and become a Buddha. Outside the staff, you should also give others more opportunities. I don't know what you think. In the words of the big teapot, there is a little bitterness.

Ximenqing wanted to jump up. He never thought that his well-thought-out expression would cause such a reaction, which was really unexpected. It's incredible how this seemingly righteous teapot can cover up murderers. Ximen Qing scratched his scalp and filled his cheeks impatiently.

Thinking about it, Ximen Qing understood eight points. The big teapot is different from himself. He lives in a brothel all day and is used to the viciousness of these little ones. He has long not put this group in the same position as others. So when he explains to the big teapot with the values that ordinary people follow, he will naturally have some abnormal reactions. If killing one person is not enough, what about killing a lot of people? Although Wu Da's murder in Mochou Hall has not been confirmed, at least now everyone knows that what happened in Mochou Hall is definitely not a simple fire, otherwise there is no way to explain it. The body was concentrated in a room and dismembered. The people in Rouge Lane must know these things better than they know. Yes, that's it. Anyway, connect these things first. Ximen Qing made up his mind.

"Sir, my intention is to say less. The less you know, the safer it is for you, but what you just said just now has the meaning of covering up the heinous demon, so I have to talk about his other crimes. Do you know that there was a fire in Mochou Hall in Rouge Lane on the evening of November 15? While talking, Ximen Qing stared at the face of the big teapot. He wanted to know which thing the big teapot cared about more about.

"Naturally, I know that they are all on the street and don't look down. I'm still a little familiar with Qiuyan, the old woman in Mochou Hall. I heard that she also died in the fire. Alas, it's really pitiful. Sir may not know that the pavilion we are now living in is also built on fire. Similar to this kind of natural and man-made disasters, there are countless occurrences in this world every day. I can only have a feeling of sorrow for the unfortunate dead, but I can't do anything. The big teapot is full of sadness and sadness.

It seems that the big teapot is still concerned about this matter. Ximen Qing found that the big teapot is not as ruthless to all colleagues working in brothels as the little ones. When he mentioned Qiu Yan, his words were obviously much milder, but that was not a word for normal people. Yes, he must have seen many old pimps bully prostitutes here. Even he has heard how the new chicks were cleaned up by the old pimp. Those methods are extremely cruel, and even he will sound a little numb, and he will be sober that he is a man and does not live in that kind of family that sells children and daughters.

A sense of justice and compassion. The little one is useless, and the old girls are useless. What about the prostitute? Will prostitutes be useful? Ximenqing thought in his heart. Except for a small number of women who are willing to degenerate, most prostitutes are also clean before entering the industry. They are good daughters of their fathers and good wives of their husbands. Of course, even after entering the industry, a few of them still maintain their noble character, but their bodies are much lighter. Try to shift the topic to this point, whether it can cause the anger of the big teapot.

"The fire in Mochou Hall not only killed the old pimp, but also killed many girls in their youth. I think you know that there are several women who are willing to enter the door of prostitutes, and as you just said, they are just easy to trust others and are deceived here. Some more miserable people are sold here by their parents. You said, what's wrong with them? They can't change the status quo. They just want to accept the reality and live a miserable life in a brothel. Maybe one day I will save enough money to redeem myself. Maybe one day, you will meet a lover who doesn't care whether they are clean or not, and get married with them. There are several passages that can be spread as good stories even in Yanggu, don't you think so? Ximenqing deliberately picked up his tone, which conveyed a hint to the big teapot that the big teapot must express its own views and opinions on this.

The big teapot was stunned for a while, probably thinking about Ximen Qing's words over and over again, and then seemed to be a little reluctantly nodded, and his lips moved a few times, but did not say anything.

It's almost done. We need to add another fire. Ximenqing took a deep breath and continued, "However, this fire has cut off their bright future that may be changed. There are infinite possibilities in their lives and future, but now, death suddenly comes, turning beautiful years into terrible coke. Ximenqing sighed while saying that it was really surprising why he suddenly said such elegant words. However, this is not the most important thing. Since this big teapot likes justice, likes justice, likes justice, and likes to speak like a master in a temple, perhaps such an elegant expression can achieve the best effect. Ximenqing's words suddenly turned around and began to say that he had already conceived the key points. Moreover, you must have heard that there are many strange things about this fire. There was a room where five or six bodies were gathered, and it was obvious that none of them were burned to death. For details, I'm just hearsay, but I believe that the rumors on Rouge Lane must be more exciting and more difficult to accept than what I heard, right? Ximen Qing's tone was aggressive and indefensible.

"Yes, you are very right. Although these prostitutes are low-bodied, even if they do evil things, they are all small evil. They have not done anything unscrupulous and let people be killed. Judging from the scene, it is no longer a simple killing, but a kind of killing. Even if those women do bad things, it is enough to kill them with a knife. It is indeed against reason to carry out such inhumane abuse. People who do such things can no longer be called human beings, but real demons. If such a demon stands in front of him, even if I can't beat him, I will definitely come forward bravely. Even if I try my best to bite a piece of his meat, it is still resentful. When the big teapot said this, he couldn't help patted the table. This sound aroused a series of echoes in the room. The expression of the big teapot was a little unnatural in the echo. Maybe he felt that his attitude was a little too much.

"What you said just now is not in vain to call you Mr. Life." Ximenqing stood up and swept the floor. What I want to pursue now is the demon who killed those innocent women. He should be the same person as the one who killed the water pavilion.

"Oh?" The originally determined attitude of the big teapot suddenly loosened: "I don't understand. How can this be involved together? If I remember correctly, the time you just searched was from November 14 to November 16. If the boy of Shuixie Pavilion died on November 14, the murderer should stay away from Rouge Lane for at least a period of time after killing people. How could he come back the next day? If it was on November 16, it would be even more impossible. If such a big case has been committed, the government can't find him, and how can he return to the place where the crime occurred again? If it is on November 15, it is difficult for people to understand these two things. How can they kill people outside the city after killing people in Rouge Lane? This is really confusing. Please tell me. Otherwise, it is easy to think that outsiders are using my sense of justice to tease me. The big teapot raised its eyebrows and let Ximen Qing bow without moving.

Ximenqing was anxious to jump up and scold his mother. He had never seen such a person. He didn't walk and retreated. Anyway, he couldn't say anything. The murderer, the murderer who killed so many people, can not be hated in his righteous heart, or this hatred has not burned to a certain height. What is the justice in his heart, the big teapot in front of him? Is the kind of justice he thinks is really justice?

But when he was angry, the conversation had progressed to this extent, and there was no room for retreat. If Ximenqing does not explain clearly, the big teapot will definitely think that he has been teased. If this matter is exposed, Ximenqing is likely not to make any progress in the investigation.

"Of course, I don't know exactly what happened that night, but I can tell you a general context. It should be that after killing people, the demon was found by your little man and someone else. Then, your little man did not say anything for his own danger, but was found by the devil. He coerced your little man to come out of the city and killed him. However, what the devil didn't know was that all this was discovered by another person in the dark. This person told me the truth through some channels, and I was able to find out here. Ximenqing explained that although he did not believe that he would be so decent as a little man, it was always better to put the dead on the side of justice in this matter.

"You are really good at telling jokes, outsiders." A contemptuous smile appeared on the mouth of the big teapot: "I guess the truth of the matter is that the little man found the murderer, but if he wanted to blackmail him, it was the little man who coerced the devil out of the city. These heads are full of scum. They can only deceive women who usually don't go out. When they meet a real veteran, they must be fooled. Group rotation. He was lured to other places by the other party and induced him. This is all the fault of greed. I thought I could make a lot of money, but I thought I would die. But I didn't understand what you meant until now. You just said that there was a third person at the scene. So, what you are most eager to do now is to find the whereabouts of the third person. I guess you are looking for a woman, right? Otherwise, I just said that someone would think about the prostitute in Rouge Lane, and you would be so excited. Indeed, if this woman is Rouge Lane, she is most likely to know the truth of the matter. The unsliced expression on the face of the big teapot slowly faded away and was replaced by deep thinking.
