"Killing people pays for their lives, and paying off debts is justified!"

"Since the sky has no eyes and the government has no way, I will do it myself, what's wrong!"

Mao San's pupils dilated slightly, the muscles between his noses trembled, and his chained hand was heavily placed on the desk of Wei Zhutou, "What's wrong!" ”

There is a screen by the window connected to the interrogation room on both sides, and what may be put in the prison is not a high-end product. This screen is pasted with paper, not too thick, the light over there is bright, Mao San's figure is faintly reflected on the screen, at first it was calm and nothing, suddenly the change of love is still so big, Shen Wansha was startled.

Helian Yu quickly caught the cup that Shen Wansha threw to the side, and at the same time patted Shen Wansha's back to appease him slightly.

Shen Wansha stroked his chest, glanced at He Lianyu, opened his mouth and said 'thank you' silently, Helian Yu smiled gently, signaling not to. But Shen Wansha looked away, and when he looked at the figure on the screen, his eyes almost narrowed into a strip of money, full of anger.

Shen Wansha came back to his senses and saw that Lu Li and Zhao Zhu were looking at each other, and the atmosphere was very strange.

What's going on? Shen Wansha tugged on Lu Li's sleeve.

Lu Li poured some tea on the table, and wrote two words lightly with his fingers: Jingxing.

Shen Wansha was stunned, and after thinking about it again, it wasn't! Chengdu Mansion, which can be the work of the government master, as long as you have money, you can get out of prison, not who Jingxing is!

Mao San's incident is also a coincidence, if it was more than a year late, they cleaned up the Chengdu officialdom, maybe there would be no case today......

Shen Wansha sighed, leaned his cheeks and looked at Mao San's figure on the screen, feeling a ...... in his heart I can't say it, it's very unpleasant anyway, and it's a little stuffy.

Wei Zhutou has been a head catcher for many years, and he is used to seeing all kinds of scenes, no matter how fierce the prisoner is, he has never been afraid. Mao San is calm, he may still be worried, Mao San is ruthless, but he is not afraid at all.

Knocking on the table indifferently, Wei Zhutou reminded Mao San coldly, "I asked about your murder and beheading, not how your wife and children died." ”

Mao San was stunned for a moment, and he sneered, "You public people are all so cold-blooded, you deserve to die." ”

After a moment of silence, Mao San continued to speak.

Chengdu officialdom is full of corruption, and there is no intention to hide it at all, without asking more, Mao San can know Jingxing's name. At that time, his heart was full of hatred, hating all the people who had made him fall to this point, and he also had murderous intentions towards Jingxing.

Jingxing is a very good servant who knows how to operate, he will please the officials, he will entrap the lower classes, and he will not be able to break off people around him, as Mao San, it is not easy to get close to him. But as the saying goes, if you are not afraid of thieves stealing, you are afraid of thieves, Mao San stared at Jingxing all the time, for three months, and he was really waiting for the opportunity.

That day, Jingxing seemed to be doing a confidential matter, waved away everyone around him, and went to a place alone. Who did he meet, Mao San didn't know, he only knew that things were probably going very smoothly, Jingxing came out full of alcohol, his feet were fluttering, his drunkenness was obvious, and his face was full of smiles.

There was a guy who helped him to send him to the inn next door to open a room, and he didn't know if he arranged it himself, or the person who met him, in short, Jingxing was alone this night, sleeping in the inn.

The opportunity was rare, and Mao San wanted to dive in. He doesn't have much money on him, he doesn't dress very well, but his stay in the hotel may attract attention, the inn is not high-walled, and although he is short, he is nimble......

At the third watch, he quietly climbed the wall and slipped into the inn. Because he had paid attention to the guy's speech before, he knew where Jingxing lived.

He planned very well, and he was as smooth as he imagined, but when he put his hand on Jingxing's neck, he didn't dare.

He's never killed anyone......

Just hesitated, but Jing Xing woke up, and the two of them scuffled. He is small and has a lot of strength, but Jingxing is tall, his mouth is not idle, he keeps calling people, he is scared, so he has to push Jingxing away indiscriminately and flee for his life in a panic.

He failed to kill Jing Xing, he was scared at the time, and later regretted it very much, because he felt that Jing Xing deserved to die! But although he failed to kill, he got an unexpected joy, and when the two pushed each other, a few pages of Jingxing's arms were crumpled out, and they were accidentally stuck on his belt.

Those few pages are a list.

He didn't go to school, he didn't know how to read, but some surnames, simple words are also known, and then from time to time he described the appearance of a word and asked the literate person, and slowly understood, it was a list.

At first he didn't understand the use of the list, until he inquired about the people who had killed his wife, and when he compared the list, he saw that the names of their fathers, or cousins, and in-laws were all on the list!

And he has been in the beggars in Chengdu Mansion for a long time, and he has seen many tragedies, although others have suffered differently from him, but the culprit is also the person on the list!

Mao San once again became murderous. But this time, instead of making a decision on impulse, he began to think carefully about what to do. How to inquire about these people, how to subdue them, how to punish them.

When he killed the first person, he was still immature, he followed him for the longest time, and he didn't behead him, he just killed the person and ran away.

During this time, he met Mei Niang twice. Once when tracking the target, it was too cold to go to a tavern with fish and dragons, and Mei Niang was the cook inside, smiling and talking to the guests. The second time was after killing someone, there was a dog barking suddenly, the movement was very loud, he was afraid of being discovered, so he found a hidden corner and hid, and this hiding position was just next to the window of Mei Niang's residence.

He saw Mei Niang talking to the Buddha on the Buddha shrine, nagging and talking for a long time, and he dozed off until he heard a name......

After that, he began to pay attention to this woman, and came to listen to it every night, and found that Mei Niang was very useful. She is a cook, her skills are not bad, and she is often invited by rich families to make banquets, and sometimes the female relatives of the official family will also invite her to banquets. Although she is not a high status, she can hear a lot of news that others can't hear, and she likes to talk about it every night.

Mao San gradually learned that the list in his hand was probably a not very glorious corruption organization, and his wife and children, many tragedies he saw on weekdays, including Mei Niang's husband, died at the hands of these people.

He started to have a brilliant idea.

He wants to do the right thing for heaven!

He followed Mei Niang closely while continuing to kill.

He felt that he could not let people die so happily, and after he caught people, he tied people to chairs with extremely fine iron wires that are often found in iron shops, gagged them, and refused to eat or drink, so that he had no way to ask for heaven and no way to ask the earth. When he was satisfied, he beheaded the man, threw the body into the field, and buried the head in front of the grave of the man he had killed.

"Sure enough, people are afraid of death...... Mao San looked at his outstretched palms, and his voice was cold, "After they are caught by me, they will beg for mercy, they will kneel and kowtow to me, and say that they can give me a lot of silver...... At first, I wanted to scream and beg for help, but then I didn't even dare to speak, just begging me to give them a sip of water, and as long as I gave them a sip of water, they were even willing to lick my upper. ”

"When I tied them up and cut them off with an axe, their bodies were so frightened that they convulsed, their eyes were full of fear, and they begged...... My wife also begged hard at the beginning, but they didn't let it go, why should I let it go! ”

"I'm going to let them see for themselves how I cut off their heads!"

"But I am different from these beasts, the sins I do personally, I bear them personally, and I can't harm my children, I take off their heads to pay tribute to the dead, and I will eliminate grievances and grievances, and I never thought of killing their families!"

"I avenged Mei Niang's husband, although she didn't know, I had a clear conscience for her! I have the right to use her information! Those people deserve to die, they are ruthless in their hearts, they have created countless grievances, the government doesn't care, I will kill them to do the right thing for heaven, what's wrong! ”

Wei Zhutou squinted, "Jingxing is dead, the officialdom of Chengdu Mansion was purged at the beginning of the year, and all those involved in corruption have been punished, do you know?" ”

"I don't know," Mao San snorted coldly, "These have nothing to do with me!" ”

"Skynet is magnificent but not leaky," Wei Zhutou propped his hand on the table, his thick eyebrows were slightly raised, and his tiger eyes were majestic, "Even if you don't check for a while, you won't be able to escape the strictness of the law!" When you see a crow black, all the birds in the world are black? You only have to look farther, not in the county, not in the house, you can go to the imperial history office to complain, and go to Beijing to complain! Murder is a hero? You also know that debts need to be repaid, and murder needs to pay for life! ”

Mao San snorted, "You don't have a backache when you stand and talk!" Ordinary people like me, it's easy to sue? There are potential rules everywhere, and there are points everywhere, and if I sue like this, someone will definitely come to trial? You're a liar! ”

"Since the death of my wife and children, I have seen their faces every night when I close my eyes, but no matter what, I can't go back. I didn't want to live anymore, I had saved so many lives, it was enough! Mao San suddenly laughed wildly, "Those bastards still want to lure me out to help kill people, it's really beautiful!" Who do you think is a fool! ”

"I knew I would die one day, but I didn't expect that I didn't die at their hands, but was caught by you." Mao San laughed and was quiet for a while, and suddenly became a little curious, "I committed crimes in Shuzhong for a whole year, killing at least one person every month, and then followed Mei Niang all the way to Jingzhao Mansion, and never stopped, why didn't anyone catch it, but you caught it?" ”

"Yes...... Is that a? Mao San remembered Lu Li, who had introduced himself in front of him before, and shook his head, "It's not right, how can you catch me just by relying on a headless corpse?" How do you know I'm an ironworker? ”

Wei Zhutou would not answer his question, anyway, he couldn't convince Mao San, so he simply asked about the details of the crime, such as where did Xiaolian Mountain hear about the secret passage, and where he hid after the kidnapping...... Seriously finish writing the confession and let Mao San draw it.

Afterwards...... Then we should consult with him about the attitude of the church after the meeting.

This discussion process was a bit bloody, and it was better for the children not to watch, so Zhao Zhuhe Lianyu took Lu Li and Shen Wansha out one by one.

In the afternoon, the sun is in full bloom, it is really not good for walking, and there is a small pavilion under the tall plane tree in the distance, which is ventilated on all sides, and looks cool, and a few people walked over.

"It's still Xiao Lizi who is smart, I didn't think of the murder weapon and industry problems." Shen Wansha sighed as he walked.

"It's the result of everyone's collective efforts, and I don't want to take the credit." Lu Li touched his head, "It was you who reminded the murderer that he had to be beheaded, and he had to have a lot of strength." I also met the lumberjack outside the secret passage, and when I saw the sharp axe in his hand, it suddenly occurred to me that the murderer might have more than one reason for beheading, and the murder weapon must be unusual. If it weren't for picking stars and carefully pondering Mei Niang's behavior, he wouldn't be able to find the junction between the two, and besides, Brother Zhao seemed to think that Mao San was suspicious? I remember the first time I saw him in the drunken Eight Immortals wine shop, and Brother Zhao looked at Mei Niang and Mao San a few more times. ”

Zhao Shu shook his head, "I didn't think that Mao San was a murderer at the time...... but his intuition seemed to be a little wrong, and after careful observation, he concluded that Mao San was not a threat, so he let go. Now that I think about it, I regret it. If he had stared at the investigation early, he might have been able to solve the case immediately and scare Lu Li!

Helian Yu's voice was quite meaningful, "So in handling the case, any trace of feeling can't be missed......"

A few people approached and found that the gazebo was very small, two people sat fine, and four people were too crowded. Shen Wansha was a little sullen, and he didn't want to let it go at all, so he pulled Lu Li to sit down. Zhao Zhu and He Lianyu didn't mind, they had internal strength, and the cold and heat actually had little impact on them, and they also had something to talk about, so they came out of the cool light and walked to the other side of the plane tree.

"What's wrong?" Lu Li patted Shen Wansha on the shoulder.

"I don't know ......" Shen Wansha sat opposite Lu Li, his little eyebrows twisted, "We have encountered two serial murders before, one is the tomb keeper of Ciguang Temple, and the other is the Qinglou case of Chengdu Fu, I was a little confused at that time, because these murderers seemed to be doing good deeds." You sue me that the reason why people are human beings is because they have emotions and limits, and after a certain point, they will become more terrifying, and the law is the most important weapon of the state, and no one can override it, I agree with it, and it is still the same. ”

"The tomb keepers of Ciguang Temple have a special concept, they actually have their own selfish desires, but they just happen to kill a foreigner, if it is a person from Great Xia, he will also kill. The murderer of the Qinglou case was forced by life and became unrecognizable, seemingly fierce, but in fact he was cowardly and cowardly, and did not dare to deal with the wicked, so he attacked the innocent woman. ”

"As I get along with you for a long time, I understand more and more that there are some things that cannot be taken for granted, nor can you go with the flow, and you must have your own judgment. But this time this Mao San, I think he is really righteous. ”

Shen Wansha clasped his hands together, a little nervous, "Although he has his own hatred, he is not all selfish, all the people he kills are harmful to society, and he does not implicate innocents." Things in the world are not black and white, right is right or wrong, there are always some gray areas, this kind of place, isn't it...... Need such people? ”

The mottled shadows of the trees fell on his face, and his face became more and more delicate, and his eyes were clear.

The breeze blew through the ends of his black hair.

Lu Li was silent for a moment before gently rubbing his head, "Good and evil are the most basic values. Human nature is inherently good, that is, when people are born, they are all good. Why did it change? It's pressure, it's the environment. But is he the only one under pressure? Why didn't someone else kill, he went to kill? Why is it that in the same bad situation, he is getting worse and worse, but others can gradually change their fate, and when they reach middle age, in their old age, they earn a large family business, enjoy the fruits of their lives, and benefit their children and grandchildren? ”

"Because, he's a loser. Being bullied the same, bearing the same, forbearing, others can do their best in the time they are around, thinking about why there is such a situation, how to change, how others are doing, how to make everyone, especially stakeholders, like it, value it, and adapt it, learn, and change after seeing it clearly, but the murderer will only feel sorry for himself and repeat this process. The murderer knew that there were various unspoken rules in human society, but he couldn't adapt to it, and he was too lazy to change his attachment, so he was abandoned by the rules and became a loser. ”

"It's obviously a matter of ability, but he never introspects, blaming a qiē on the darkness of society. I don't have the ability to stand at the top to change the rules, and I can't adapt to it, so I turn to others, hide in dark corners to follow, sneak attack, and use the way of taking other people's lives to show a sense of existence and control of desires. ”

Lu Li feels that most of the criminals who embark on the road of murder, no matter what the reason, are the losers of life, and the truly capable people, the strong, will change their fate with their own hands. Heaven and earth are unkind, and all things are used as dogs. The world is so big, there are many people who have a bad life, you say you are pitiful, there are always people who are more pitiful than you, crime is not an excuse to cover up your incompetence and let yourself fall.

"Hmm......" Shen Wansha was stunned, his eyes were full of thoughts, and he was obviously thinking.

"We often experience some things in our lives, a person who is not so enthusiastic and has nothing to do with his lazy movement, helps the woman holding the child to open the door, and gets a thank you, will be in a good mood, and the good mood will last for a long time. A person who has hot eyes on others, observes others at any time, and consciously rushes up to provoke and quarrel when he finds a little mistake, in fact, he is unhappy every day, and his feelings change from bad to worse and worse. "Good can make people happy, and evil can make people sad and even erode the heart a little bit.

Lu Li smiled lightly on his face, "Evil, it all starts little by little, magnify, it doesn't matter if you are a little evil, at most you will make yourself feel bad, but if you don't limit yourself, it will become more and more bottomless." Killing people is not easy, it takes a lot of courage, but there are some things that cannot be done, as long as you start, there is no end. Kindness is worthy of affirmation and advocacy, since you like it and enjoy it, why not insist on it? ”

"Yes, the sage said, don't take evil as small, don't take good as small." Shen Wansha nodded heavily, "A person who abandons his feelings and kindness one day is not a normal person." "Mao San is still very perverted when he tells the killing process, he is no longer a normal person!

Lu Li sighed softly, leaned back on his shoulders, raised his head, and looked at the blue sky through the gaps in the leaves, "Reality is cruel, it will make us see a lot of things, there are dark, there are light, there are cruel, and there are happy. But when we look back on the past, what we think of most is the beauty of the past, those warm, colorful, and happy things, rather than indulging in pain. Do we give up the light because of the darkness, no, we instinctively chase the light, we think that's good. ”

Thinking of the critical illness and difficult support in his previous life, Lu Li's voice was very soft, "No matter how terrible the darkness is, we are willing to look forward to it, and the beauty in those memories is the driving force for us to persevere, and the courage to support us." ”

Shen Wansha leaned over, leaned his head on Lu Li's shoulder, and his voice was relaxed, "...... Well. ”

The breeze blows, the corners of the hair and clothes dance gently, and the air is full of summer.

Solving the question in the little friend's heart, Lu Li's voice teased, "Moreover, how do you know that there is no gray organization in the imperial court?" There are always some disgraceful things that need to be done, but they can't be widely publicized. ”

Shen Wansha straightened up, he really remembered, as if he had heard that there was such a secret organization in the imperial court!

"I'm a little harsh, Mao Sanhui has a miserable ending, and it's also because he has no self-knowledge." Lu Li gave an example, "If a poor peasant suddenly gets tens of thousands of taels of silver, do you think they will immediately make a fortune and achieve something that others can't do?" ”

"How is that possible?" Shen Wansha has seen too many such things, "Most of them will fight for family property, fathers and sons, brothers cannibalize each other, and a good and harmonious family will never be seen again." ”

Therefore, Mao San has been bullied since he was a child, and he doesn't have a friend around him, if it weren't for the good heart of the blacksmith master, he wouldn't have survived. He has no money, no power, and no friends to help, can he keep marrying a beautiful girl like Chang'e? ”

Shen Wansha was stunned for a moment before he said, "Yes...... When the Three Kingdoms were established in the previous dynasty, there was an orphan girl in Shahe Village, Wanxian County, who was a beauty embryo since she was a child, and when she grew up, she was even more captivated, and all the men in the village loved her and wanted to compete for the opportunity to marry, but the village chief disagreed, saying that such a character, they can't keep it in the village, don't make up your mind, and treat it well is the best policy. Everyone didn't understand, but they didn't dare to disobey the village chief's wishes, and sure enough, the girl's fame spread far and wide, and when she was fifteen years old, a convoy came from the city and took the people away. Later, this girl first entered the palace, then the palace, and finally entered the new emperor's harem when the country was broken. Because the people in her hometown treated her very well, every benefactor rewarded Shahe Village, and the villagers were very happy, lamenting that the old village chief was wise, if they were not good to the girl at that time, or had a relationship with the girl, Tianwei was angry, and everyone would probably die. ”

This sentence doesn't seem to be very friendly to women, but it's a helpless fact. As a man, if you don't have the strength and confidence to protect the girl and make her life worry-free, you shouldn't ask for marriage at will. Shen Wansha nodded his head, "Mao San is full of indignation about life, he can't live a good life, he dares to marry a beautiful wife, is he destined to encounter all kinds of nasty things!" ”

And Mao San has not verified what his wife said, is her background really like that? She lives with Mao San wholeheartedly, she really takes a fancy to this person who has achieved nothing, looks not good, and cares for her? Lu Li stretched out his hand to brush away the fallen leaves on Shen Wansha's shoulder, "As far as I know, beautiful girls are generally very easy to be cared for, as long as she is willing, change to any man of the right age, who has no sweetheart, can do Mao San's Cheng dù, only one 'similar experience', can be affectionate and affectionate, I always feel ...... It's too light. ”

Shen Wansha was really together, and after his eyes rolled for a long time, he suddenly sighed with regret, "It's a pity that no one knows what is hidden!" ”

"The facts of the case are clear, so there is no need to dwell on it."

"It's also ......" Shen Wansha was unwilling to wait for a while, and suddenly pulled Lu Li's sleeves, his big black and white eyes flickered, "Little Lizi, you say...... What does love really look like? ”

"What does it look like?" Lu Li's gaze fell on the tall figure not far away, and the corners of his lips curled slightly, "Probably...... Everyone's different. ”
