Chapter 102: Traitor
Jiang Xiaoxuan and Jade Qilin, who were anxious, inquired about Xi'er's whereabouts at various Qinglou dance shops in the city.
It's just that the two of them have good faces, and they know at a glance that they are good families, and they attract people's attention everywhere they go, and they are either ridiculed or viciously driven out.
This time, the two of them were blasted out of a large gate again. The jade unicorn was not angry, and when he raised his head, he was about to kick the door, but was stopped by Jiang Xiaoxuan. The two returned home in frustration, having found nothing.
The jade unicorn walked aimlessly with a heavy heart, and Liu Wenzhao walked over, stopped her and asked gently, "I heard Ah Fu say, are you looking for your maid Xi'er?" ”
"Do you have news?" The jade unicorn was overjoyed, and then saw Liu Wenzhao's expression, and was disappointed: "Yes, after the birthday banquet, Xi'er is gone, I have been looking for it for a day, and there is still no news." ”
Liu Wenzhao said softly: "You don't have to be too sad, there are such things in every house, the maid who is valued by the master suddenly ran away, some did uncivilized things with outsiders and simply eloped, and some colluded with outsiders to run away with the softness in the house...... The human heart is sinister, and people like you can't think of it. ”
When Yu Qilin heard this, he shook his head firmly: "Xi'er is not such a person. She's not going to let that go. ”
"Oh?" Liu Wenzhao pretended to ask: "Do you know that Lu Dao Xi'er left by herself?" ”
Jade Qilin glanced at him, frowned, and said vaguely: "I'm just saying that if she leaves by herself." After a pause, he continued: "No matter what the reason is, it's so chaotic outside now, what I'm most afraid of is that she will fall into the hands of some bad guy......"
Liu Wenzhao hurriedly said with concern: "Then you should let Yuanbao help you find it together." ”
"Yuan Bao went directly to the yamen to check on those traffickers, if he has a clue there. It's going to be much faster than me and Cher going out on the street to ask. ”
"Yamen? Got a clue for ingots? Liu Wenzhao narrowed his eyes.
The Jade Qilin nodded and said in a low voice, "Yes, catch our big gold teeth." There are also tattoos on the hands. We also know that his surname is Xu. That princess will definitely not be able to escape far. ”
Hearing this, Liu Wenzhao's eyes flickered, his eyebrows raised slightly, and he nodded and said: "With Yuanbao to help you, you will definitely get twice the result with half the effort, although I don't have any way." But you will also be instructed to go down and let the people take care of you. ”
Hearing him comfort himself so sincerely, Jade Qilin was grateful. smiled slightly: "Cousin, thank you." ”
The trust and gratitude of the jade unicorn made Liu Wenzhao lose his mind for a while, so he immediately calmed down and smiled: "Family." Why be polite? ”
That day. The gold ingots summoned all the catchers for a meeting.
"The clues we now know about this group of traffickers are: first, Qianjiaoge is a den, at least, a contact point, and second, these people have a not simple background, they are not ordinary thieves who make money, and they have a wide range of channels. There are many dens and many sales channels. Third, this gang of traffickers, the members all have on their arms..."The gold ingots held up a piece of paper, and the scorpion tattoo was drawn on the picture, "such a tattooed ......" He described while observing the reaction of the crowd, in the crowd, Ma Liu squeezed behind, and as the crowd quickly exclaimed, his expression exaggerated.
The gold ingot's gaze gradually fell on him......
In the afternoon of the same day, after the golden ingots instructed Wang Qiang and Ma Zhong, he specially summoned Ma Liu and personally instructed him.
Ma Liu listened attentively, patted his chest and promised: "Don't worry, boss, this matter is on me!" ”
Jin Yuan Bao smiled calmly and encouraged: "Behave well, do a good job, I can also ask Lord Fu Yin to give you some hard money!" ”
"That's, that's! Xie Touer promoted. I'll do it! ”
Ma Liu left in a hurry, and Jin Yuan Bao looked at Ma Liu's back and slowly narrowed his eyes.
The next morning. The gold ingots once again convened a meeting of the crowd.
"I've already been assigned to this operation......"
Before he could finish speaking, Wang Qiang broke in: "Head! Just now, the land security in Hui'anli in the city came to report, and the people in the courtyard we were staring at ran away overnight! ”
Everyone was in an uproar, and Ma Liu was even more angry, shouting angrily: "How could you just run away!" ”
"Yes, how could you just run away like this......" Jin Yuan Bao sneered, suddenly shouted, and pointed at Ma Liu, "Take him down for me." ”
The crowd was stunned, and Wang Qiang and Ma Zhong immediately took Ma Liu.
Ma Liu struggled: "Boss, what are you doing with me!" ”
"What are you doing?" Jin Yuan Bao sneered again and again, "There is a traitor in our yamen, tell me, who is it?" ”
"Why do you think it's me!" Ma Liu said angrily.
Jin Yuan Bao stared at him firmly and smiled slowly, "I won't tell you, since I knew that there was a traitor in the Dao, I had a look at everyone's bottom." Our brothers have been friends for several years, and on the surface, they are all impeccable, but there is only one thing that I have to pay attention to, you have just recently changed to a new house, and it is still a small courtyard with three entrances, which is not a small number. ”
"The family has added a population, and my wife thinks that the original yard is too crowded and can't do it, so she gritted her teeth and pushed for a new one. How? Young Master Jin, you live in a big house with a garden at home, so you can't get used to us poor people living a good life? Ma Liu said as he twisted his body to prevent people from tying him up.
"You are a foreigner, you have been transferred to the capital to do fishing for only three years, you have a child, and you still buy a new house?" Jin Yuanbao picked up the corner of his clothes with his hand and twisted the fabric: "Others have to be poor for several years if they top the house, and they have to weigh the noodles with meat for a long time when they patrol the streets. If you don't have extra money, who will believe it! As he spoke, he picked up a gorgeous and frivolous purse on Ma Liu's waist: "Although the materials of this purse are gorgeous, the workmanship is crude, and the embroidery is even more frivolous. You say, you are a fast catcher and still supporting your family, how can you have the leisure and spare money to go to the Qinglou all day long? It's just that the Qinglou case we handled, how many times have they fallen short at the last moment, you say, I don't doubt you, who do you suspect? ”
The crowd caught up suddenly, and looked at Ma Liu's gaze and immediately felt a little more disgusted.
Ma Liu was still dying and struggling: "You can't say that I'm Neiying just because of this!" ”
"Yes...... "Yes," the cold in the gold ingot's eyes seeped through: "Yes." But I told you yesterday that I was going to move Hui Anli, and today the people ran away - what else do you have to say? ”
Ma Liuliu was shocked: "Didn't you say that you told Wang Qiang and Ma Zhong to go to Hui'anli today?" ”
The gold ingots smiled faintly. "I'm not talking to them about Hui Anli. This place in Hui'anli, only you know the way. ”
The ironclad evidence is like a mountain, and Ma Liu hung his head in despair.
"Betting on Ma Liu. I'll judge later! ”
Jin Yuan Bao gave an order, and Ma Liudang was pushed and sent to the cell.
In the afternoon, Ma Liu was detained in a corner of the torture room, but he did not suffer any crime, and even gave him a stool.
Suddenly, the iron door clanged, and the gold ingots walked in from outside the door with a jade unicorn.
Ma Liu looked at the jade unicorn in amazement. I was amazed, how could a prisoner still have a wife?
The gold ingots pulled out a chair for the jade qilin to sit down, and he was about to start the interrogation. Unexpectedly, before he could speak, Ma Liu said: "Don't waste your efforts, I won't say it." ”
The gold ingots listened. It's angry and funny. It's angry that a traitor is so justified when he is caught, and the laugh is that he doesn't even know the nature of those people, and he still wants to die for them.
Jin Yuan Bao slowly walked up to him, found a chair to sit down, and asked slowly, in a chatty tone, "Who deserves to be so loyal to you?" ”
Ma Liu obviously didn't expect him to be so kind, and remembering that he was not thin on himself on weekdays, he couldn't help but feel a little guilty. He smiled bitterly: "I am willing to lose the bet, but you can't knock out more news from me." I still have a family, and I can't help but think about it. ”
Jin Ingot smiled: "You think that if you come in, they will let your family go?" ”
Ma Liu closed his eyes and did not answer.
"You are a fast catcher, but you are involved in human trafficking with bad guys, and I don't know how many innocent girls' futures have been ruined in your hands, don't you feel guilty at all? For the sake of colleagues, you know what to do, and you may not have a chance to be lenient when you recruit it quickly."
Ma Liu sneered: "You are the young master of the Jin Mansion, you are so idle that you have nothing to do to grab a job with us, how do you know how difficult it is for us foreigners to survive in the capital!" ”
"That's your reason?" Jin Yuan Bao looked at him hatefully, "Ma Liu, you really disappointed me." For your own good, you can extinguish your conscience and send a good girl from a good family into the fire pit? ”
Unexpectedly, Ma Liu said cheekily: "They are all children from poor families, and they may not be better off when they enter the kiln." ”
The jade qilin wanted to open his mouth several times, but when he saw that the gold ingots induced a confession, he forcibly held back, and at this time he couldn't help but get up, rushed over and slapped Ma Liu hard: "Shameless!" You say, Xi'er didn't you sell it! ”
"What's Xi'er? I don't know what to do. I have to deal with more than a dozen of them every day, do I remember the names one by one? ”
Provoked by him, the jade unicorn was furious, raised his leg and kicked him over.
Ma Liu was in pain, and Jin Yuanbao hurriedly grabbed the jade qilin, pressed her back to her seat, and persuaded in a low voice: "Don't be impulsive, it won't help you to beat and scold like this, he won't just do it." ”
"Phew!" Ma Liu spat out a mouthful of saliva and slowly got up: "I won't recruit anything." ”
"Really?" Jin Yuan calmly played with the jade pendant on his waist and said, "What if I want to fish you out and send your whole family to avoid trouble?" ”
Ma Liu's whole body was shocked.
"You know that your current crime is not small, as a quick arrest but colluding with thieves, it makes Lord Fu Yin's face gloomy, and if you don't say anything, I will ask you to be exiled; If you tell me who is behind it, I can think of moving you out of the field, give you a new identity document, and send your family of three to other places, far away from these people. You also know that I am the young master of the Golden Mansion, and these things are not difficult for me to do. ”
When Ma Liu heard this, his body trembled slightly with excitement: "What is it for?" Aren't you jealous and hateful? ”
"I remember when you just entered the six doors." Jin Yuan said slowly: "You used to be a good catcher. ”
Ma Liu was silent, hiding his face in the shadows.
Seeing this, the jade qilin also slowly lowered his fist and stared at him. The gold ingots also waited quietly......
Suddenly, Ma Liu raised his head and spit out three words: "Tianxiang Pavilion." ”
The gold ingot's spirit perked up: "Tianxiang Pavilion? ”
Ma Liu avoided his expectant gaze and said, "Now I can only tell you so much. These people have great powers, if you can do something from here, I'll continue to make this deal with you. ”
"Good ......," Jin Yuan Bao smiled confidently, "Please come to the detention room for Ma Liu." ”
When Ma Liu heard this, he looked at the gold ingots with burning eyes. Full of gratitude. A detention cell is a room arranged for an unconvicted suspect in no less condition than an ordinary small hotel. The fact that the gold ingots could treat him like this made him a little moved.
The night is like water, the Golden Mansion.
Liu Wenzhao walked in the garden with a heavy heart, and slowly walked towards his yard.
Ah Gui suddenly flashed out from behind a willow tree, and was about to say goodbye, but Liu Wenzhao raised his hand to stop it, and said in a deep voice: "I already know the way." The gold ingots caught Ma Liu this morning. ”
"It's good that we removed the line of Qianjiao Pavilion early. It's just that I don't know if this Ma Liu's mouth is strict? ”
Liu Wenzhao looked up at the inky black sky, and said decisively: "Of course he can't stay." Think of a way. Dispose of it. ”
"Yes! The villain is going! "Agui, even if you want to leave.
"Wait!" Liu Wenzhao stopped him and said, "This time it is Jin Yuanbao who personally supervises it, and the six doors must be tightly guarded, so you rush in." In case you can't get it. It will be bad for us. ”
"And what instructions do you have?"
"This Ma Liu is also a tough guy, I heard that he finally had a son......" Liu Wenzhao raised his head, his eyes were like the sky, and the ink was dark.
In the six-door cell, Ma Liu was dozing off against the corner of the wall with a thin blanket, with a half-eaten meal beside him.
Something was suddenly thrown into the window and fell to the ground. The sound was not loud, and Ma Liu immediately woke up.
I saw that there was an extra tiger head shoe on the ground. Exquisite workmanship.
Ma Liu's heart was startled, and he walked over slowly, squatted down, and picked up the tiger head shoes tremblingly......
His face became more and more suspicious and frightened, and he got up and looked up at the window.
An eerie voice came from outside: "You have three generations of single transmission, if you don't want to die......"
Ma Liu hurriedly leaned on the window, trying to see the person clearly, but he couldn't see anything: "I beg you not to disturb my wife and children!" I don't say anything! ”
"Hmph, that's what I said, but my mouth grows on you, in case you can't stand the torture, the master is not at ease......"
Ma Liu clutched his shoes and trembled.
"If the sun comes out tomorrow morning, you're still alive...... Well, your wife dies and your son dies. ”
Listening to the cold voice that drifted away, Ma Liu sat down dejectedly, stroked his shoes for a while, and his face flashed with fear, nostalgia, and remorse.
The dawn is dawning.
Ma Liu sighed, got up and put his shoes in his arms, looked out the window with nostalgia, and slammed his head into the stone wall with all his strength.
Early in the morning, the gold ingots hurriedly stepped into the fast room.
Wang Qiang and Ma Zhong hurriedly greeted him, his face was ugly.
"What's wrong?" The gold ingots were shocked.
"Ma Liu's dead." The faces of the two were extremely ugly.
Jin Yuan Bao stopped in surprise and scolded sharply: "Eight people work in two shifts, and they can't watch it for one night?" ”
"He killed himself." Ma Zhong looked guilty.
The gold ingots turned around and rushed to the cell, followed by Wang Qiang and Ma Zhong.
A ray of sunlight slanted into the cell through the window. There was blood on the wall.
Jin Yuan squatted quietly on the ground, staring at Ma Liu's corpse: "When did you find out?" ”
"Just now."
Jin Ingot looked up at the still fresh bloodstains and muttered, "It should be dawn...... Survived the weakest of your will at night, but sought death at dawn? As he spoke, he rummaged through Ma Liu's body.
A tiger head shoe slowly slipped off Ma Liu's hand.
Jin Yuan Bao picked up the shoes and looked at them, the bell on the toe bell rang softly, and suddenly looked up at the window, and said regretfully: "I was negligent!" Someone threatened him with his son! ”
"Alas......" Jin Yuan Bao got up, looked at Ma Liu's corpse and sighed, and ordered heavily: "Brother, give him a good burial." The two of you go to report to his home, and by the way, hurry up to change the place for the mother and son to live, don't tell others......" said that, took out a silver ticket and handed it to Wang Qiang, "It's not enough." ”
Wang Qiang took the silver ticket and looked at Ma Liu, who was still laughing together yesterday, and his heart was gloomy.
Ma Zhong was sad in his heart, and even roared angrily: "What kind of king bastard hit us with the idea and pulled a good brother into the water!" ”
The gold ingots calmed down, squinted at the blue sky outside the window, and said slowly and steadily: "They will pay the price." Ma Zhong, follow me to Tianxiang Pavilion! (To be continued......)
