Chapter 42: The Mallet

According to Luo Sihai, this woman named Wang Xiang should be from Jiangbei, because they are all fellow villagers in Jiangbei, so they will be introduced to Luo Sanmei's gouache shop to work. But looking at Wang Xiang's reaction now, it doesn't seem to be the case, Tang Cheng has already determined that among Wang Xiang and Luo Sihai, one of them must have told a lie. Wang Xiang was just an ordinary person in the end, and without waiting for Zhao Dashan and others to take the means, he told everything he knew.

"Call back and ask the people left behind to take strict care of Luo Sihai, and nothing will happen." Tang Cheng did not send Luo Sihai to the barracks, but temporarily detained him in a safe house in the city where the investigation team was located. The answer he got from Wang Xiang at this moment made Tang Cheng more and more interested in Luo Sihai, and he even thought at the moment that he might be able to find more clues through this Luo Sihai.

Luo Sihai is absolutely problematic, with this cognition, he explained to Tang Cheng, who was left by the two old policemen, and Zhao Dashan and others escorted Wang Xiang to the safe house. Luo Sihai, who was only sent to the safe house a quarter of an hour ago, didn't realize that the danger was approaching him at this moment, seeing that he was not put in a prison or a police station, Luo Sihai also felt that Tang Cheng actually didn't dare to do anything to him, but after he was tied to a wooden frame, Luo Sihai found that it seemed too late to regret it now.

"Hall Master Luo, let's meet again!" Tang Cheng, who was standing in front of the wooden frame, had his hands behind his back, although he had a slight smile on his face when he spoke, but his eyes were cold, and when he looked at Luo Sihai, he was as emotionless as if he was looking at a corpse. Tang Cheng not only had cold eyes, but also a coldness in his voice, Luo Sihai, who was already remorseful at this moment, struggled desperately and twisted his body, but he couldn't break free of the hemp rope that bound his body and the cloth in his mouth.

"If I were you, at this time, I wouldn't be struggling indiscriminately. Because of such a gross trouble, you can't get rid of it by struggling alone, and you may completely anger me like this, and the end will definitely be miserable. Tang Cheng slowly moved his feet as he spoke, and soon, Tang Cheng moved to the back of the wooden frame, that is, behind Luo Sihai. I know that you people in the rivers and lakes are talking about face, and I like to make friends. So, whether you can get the face I give you depends on your own performance. ”

Luo Sihai had already sensed the meaning of Tang Cheng's words, but before Tang Cheng asked a question, Luo Sihai didn't know what he was going to say. Seeing that Luo Sihai on the wooden frame was no longer struggling, Tang Cheng reached out and took off the cloth in Luo Sihai's mouth, and then continued, "First of all, let's talk about Wang Xiang, the female clerk in the gouache shop, I heard that you and she are fellow villagers in Jiangbei. So, the question is, who else is in this Wang Xiang's family? Don't tell me she's alone. ”

Tang Cheng's first question was asked to Wang Xiang in the gouache shop, and Luo Sihai, who was already panicked in his heart, turned white in an instant. had already guessed that the problem was probably on Wang Xiang's body, and Luo Sihai, who was tied to the wooden frame, was still hesitating how to speak, and a blade stretched out from behind him and directly landed on Luo Sihai's neck. "Before I speak, I want to remind you that I don't like people to lie to me the most. If you don't believe me, you can give it a try, and I'd like to know if this knife is sharp enough to easily cut through a person's neck. ”

Tang Cheng's continuous coercion methods have put Luo Sihai on the verge of collapse, and it doesn't feel so good to be put on his neck with a knife, even if Luo Sihai is a Jianghu person, he can't do it rather die than give in. "It's really boring, I said you can't hold on a little longer, huh? I've had a chance to try this knife too! I thought you were a tough guy! Luo Sihai's complete collapse did not make Tang Cheng happy, but showed a look of disappointment.

The undisguised expression of disappointment on Tang Cheng's face, the shocked Luo Sihai shuddered, he finally believed that Tang Cheng had the intention to kill him. Like the previous Wang Xiang, after the collapse, Luo Sihai didn't need Tang Cheng to continue to threaten him, so he told everything he knew. Dare to love him and this Wang Xiang is not a fellow villager in Jiangbei at all, Wang Xiang was originally a secret prostitute in the north of the city, someone found Luo Sihai three months ago, for the sake of the love of the 20 oceans, Luo Sihai introduced Wang Xiang to Luo Sanmei's gouache shop to work.

"It's as simple as that? Think about it again and see if there are any omissions. Luo Sihai's answer obviously couldn't convince Tang Cheng. Spending 20 yuan in vain, just to help a secret prostitute find a legitimate job, this kind of bridge that only exists in novels, let alone Tang Cheng, even the old policemen under him will not believe it. Therefore, Tang Cheng continued to ask without thinking, but Luo Sihai's expression at the moment did not seem to be a fake.

"The person you said gave you the money is Wang Mazi, who opened a tobacco house in the north of the city! I hope you didn't lie to me, if I find Wang Mazi and the answer is different from yours, you don't plan to go out again! Tang Cheng didn't waste his system skills on Luo Sihai, because he had already seen that Luo Sihai might really be unaware, otherwise Luo Sihai wouldn't have behaved so happily when he answered that question.

"Wang Mazi, who opened a smoke house in the north of the city, does anyone know this person?" Leaving the room where Luo Sihai was being held, Tang Cheng gathered the old policemen who stayed in the safe house together and mentioned the Wang Mazi that Luo Sihai had just confessed. Tang Cheng's veteran policemen were not valued by the police stations before, not because Zhao Dashan was incapable, but because most of them didn't know how to slap horses or other reasons.

There are only a few big smoke houses in the north of the city, and as soon as Tang Cheng said Wang Mazi, among the several veteran policemen present, someone immediately got up and stood up. "Captain, I know a little bit about Wang Mazi you said. This person is not a robe brother, I heard that a few years ago, this Wang Mazi set up a bureau for a Qingshui robe brother for money, but he was driven out of Chongqing by several righteous word head robe brothers. In September last year, I don't know how this Wang Mazi got in touch with the anti-smuggling department, and the Yizitoutangkou in the city did not continue to trouble him, and his smoke house in the north of the city was opened at the end of September last year. ”

The situation that the old policeman said made Tang Cheng frown slightly, in this way, this Wang Mazi should not be a small role, and direct arrest may cause unnecessary trouble. I looked down at my watch, it was only past three o'clock, and there were still a few hours before it got dark, Tang Cheng secretly smashed his mouth, there was no way, let's find something else to do first and wait until it was completely dark. There was nothing left to ask from Luo Sihai's mouth, but there was still a Wang Xiang locked up here in Tangcheng, and there was nothing to do left and right, so Wang Xiang immediately replaced Luo Sihai and was tied to the wooden frame.

When he was in the gouache shop, Wang Xiang was already frightened, and he was dragged out of the detention room by several fierce-looking guys, and directly tied to this wooden frame with a hemp rope the thickness of his thumb. "Wang Xiang, Wang Mazi, who opened a big smoke house in the north of the city, what is the relationship with you? Why did he introduce you to the gouache shop through Luo Sihai? Tang Cheng, who appeared in the interrogation room again, went straight to the point, and didn't give Wang Xiang time to react at all, so he asked a few questions in a row, and the shocked Wang Xiang cried directly.

Wang Xiang was originally just a secret prostitute in the north of the city, and the people who were sent to her on weekdays were all ordinary people at the bottom, Luo Sihai was already the most famous big man she knew in her life, Tang Cheng They carried knives and guns, before today, Wang Xiang didn't even dare to think about it. "Damn, daring is a mallet!" Under Tang Cheng's coercion, Wang Xiang cried and gave an answer, but her answer was not what Tang Cheng wanted.

Like Luo Sihai, Wang Xiang couldn't say anything at all, but she finally said a clue that Tang Cheng was interested in, Wang Mazi promised Wang Xiang that as long as Wang Xiang was working in the gouache shop, he would privately allow one of his rural relatives to temporarily store some things in the gouache shop, and Wang Mazi would give Wang Xiang five oceans every month. The shoemaker was personally brought to the gouache shop by Wang Mazi at that time, and Wang Mazi personally told Wang Xiang at that time that the shoemaker was a relative of his in the countryside.

Wang Mazi opened a big tobacco house in the north of the city, and he was a wealthy man, and Wang Xiang thought that the shoemaker was just putting some tools for repairing shoes, not to mention that there were five oceans to take every month, so there was no doubt that there was any risk. Wang Xiang's confession successfully strung Luo Sihai, Wang Mazi and the shoemaker together in a line, in this line, Wang Mazi is the key to it, as for Wang Xiang and Luo Sihai, they are just two mallets that only see money in their eyes.

After finally sorting out these circumstances, Tang Cheng immediately sent an old policeman to send the situation to the barracks, asking the barracks to immediately interrogate the shoemaker. According to Tang Cheng's speculation, the cobbler was a guy who liked to be smart, and if he had chosen to escape with all his might instead of pretending to be the person who was following him, and then disguised himself as a shoemaker and stayed on that street, he would not have been captured alive in the end.

Tang Cheng has never had a good impression of this kind of guy who likes to be smart, especially when the other party is still the object of his own cleverness. The time was only a while before it got dark, and Tang Cheng suddenly remembered something, and immediately called Zhao Dashan to his side. "Uncle Zhao, arrange a good thing for you, you immediately go to the city bureau to find Director Wang, and say that I have an operation at night, and I need the city bureau to allocate people to assist, and the income afterwards will be divided into fifty or fifty accounts."
