Chapter 489: Xiao Qiao's Advice
Xudu Mansion.
Cao Shuo sat in the torture room with two children in his arms, and a group of officials bowed their heads and stood on both sides.
Not far from Cao Shuo, there were two people kneeling with panicked expressions, a man and a woman.
"Are they your parents?" Cao Shuo asked the two children.
The two children looked at him blankly, and after a moment the girl shook her head.
"Are you their parents?" Cao Shuo asked the man and the woman.
The woman hurriedly said, "Yes! We are their parents......"
The man knelt there trembling like chaff, and he didn't dare to look at Cao Shuo.
"Take the kids out!" Cao Shuo instructed one of the guards: "Get them some pastries, go back and take them home for the maids to feed, and stay with us as two servants." ”
The guard answered, picked up the two children and left the torture room.
"The children are here, and I don't want to get their eyes dirty." Cao Shuo asked the woman, "Let me ask again, are you their parents?" ”
The woman didn't think about it, and blurted out: "Hui Gongzi, they are the children of our husband and wife." ”
The man raised his head and glanced at Cao Shuo hesitantly.
"Palm!" Playing with his fingers carelessly, Cao Shuo commanded the guard.
A guard stepped forward, grabbed the woman's hair, and opened his slap to "crackle" is a pass.
The guards all followed Cao Shuo on the battlefield.
How heavy his slap was.
After more than ten slaps, the woman's cheeks were already swollen.
"Still not telling the truth?" Cao Shuo asked.
"It's really our couple's ......," the woman tried to quibble.
The guard was about to continue, Cao Shuo said: "No need, such a woman's heart is already broken. It's useless for you to hit her, go and burn the old iron, don't burn your mouth, and put two marks on her cheeks. ”
Cao Shuo said slowly, as calmly as if he was talking to the guards about what to eat tonight.
The officials present were all shocked.
It's not that they haven't been tortured, but no one has ever been so calm when tortured.
"Childe spares his life!" The guard was about to get the soldering iron, and the man kneeling beside the woman cried: "The two children are indeed not ours, we bought ......"
"Where did you buy it?" Cao Shuo asked.
"People are being bought and sold everywhere right now." The man shuddered and said, "A lot of people are doing this kind of business. ”
"A lot of people?" The corners of Cao Shuo's mouth curled up and asked him, "What do you know?" ”
The man gave a list of names and the approximate location of those people in a panic.
Cao Shuo instructed the guards: "Summoning the fire dance, just say that they have a chance to practice, find out these people, and be sure to arrest all the human traffickers under the Cao family." ”
The guards were about to retreat, but Cao Shuo stopped him again: "Forget it, don't let Huo Wu catch them, now many places are struggling with people, and there must be a lot of human traffickers, let them sit down and kill one by one." I don't have that much time to interrogate! ”
The guards retreated, and Cao Shuo also stood up.
He was about to leave the torture chamber when an official asked, "Childe, these two ......?"
"What do you think should be done?" Cao Shuo asked.
"Show the public!" has been an official all year round, and of course the official has eyes, and he thinks that he is following Cao Shuo's meaning.
"Is it useful to show the head of the owl?" Cao Shuo smiled slightly and gently patted the official's shoulder twice: "Take it to the entrance of the market and burn it to death with boiling oil in public!" ”
Hearing him say this, a man and a woman kneeling in the torture room suddenly collapsed, and the two of them couldn't stop wailing "Son's life".
Cao Shuo listened to their pleas, left the official mansion with the guards, and went home.
Back at the residence, Cao Shuotie entered the study with a blushing face.
When he came back, he didn't tell Zhen Mi and the others, and the women didn't know that Cao Shuo was coming home.
Entering the study, Cao Shuo was sitting at the table and looking at the book, when someone knocked on the door gently.
"Come in!" Cao Shuo responded.
The door opened, and it was Xiao Qiao who came in.
She bowed to Cao Shuo: "The son came back just now, and the slave family happened to see him." Seeing that the child's face is not good, did he encounter something troublesome? ”
Xu Du was involved in human trafficking, and he got a list from the mouth of the man and woman, which obviously shows that this industry has become an industrial chain.
Thinking of the children who were sold, Cao Shuo felt a bad feeling in his heart.
Xiao Qiao came to ask, but he couldn't bring his emotions to the beauty in front of him, so he could only smile and say, "It's nothing, I caught two human traffickers." ”
"Human trafficking?" Xiao Qiao said: "Now that reselling people has become a trend, isn't it because of this trouble? ”
"How can you not be annoyed?" Cao Shuo said: "Good people are treated as livestock......
"Childe is good, but he just needs to find out what happened." Xiao Qiao said: "Some are openly sold, if they don't buy it, the whole family who sells their children and daughters will starve to death, can this be opened?" ”
Cao Shuo was stunned for a moment, and he realized that he was too impulsive.
Bringing the emotions of 2,000 years into this era is obviously inappropriate many times.
"There is no harm, no killing, Childe just opens his eyes and closes his eyes." Xiao Qiao said: "The world has become like this, not only those who resell the population are selling, but even the people themselves are selling. If the world is stable, the slave family thinks that there will be much less. ”
After Xiao Qiao's little push, Cao Shuo suddenly shouted outside the house: "Someone! ”
The guard who was guarding outside came into the house and asked, "What do you have to say?" ”
"Go to the Fire Dance Camp and get them to turn the assassination into a warning." Cao Shuo said: "I don't care how those people sell it, there is one thing that is not allowed. No killing, no abuse, and if you encounter such a thing, you will not be killed. Buy and sell normally, and leave him alone. ”
The guards retreated.
Cao Shuo said to Xiao Qiao: "Fortunately, I have you to remind me, otherwise I don't know how many people I would have to kill." ”
"Childe has a good heart, so he will be resentful." Xiao Qiao said: "The slave family can't do anything for the son, I am willing to stroke the piano and relieve the boredom for the son." ”
"Since I took you and Da Qiao to Xu Du, I haven't been with you much." Cao Shuo said: "Now I want you to appease me, I'm really ashamed." ”
Xiao Qiao smiled sweetly and said to Cao Shuo: "Please stay less, I'll go and get Yaoqin." ”
When Xiao Qiao turned around, the corners of her skirt fluttered, and a faint fragrance suddenly overflowed the study.
With a graceful posture and a fairy step, Cao Shuo looked at her back, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a faint evil smile.
After a while, Xiao Qiao came to the study with Yaoqin in his arms and bowed to Cao Shuo: "What song does Childe want to hear?" ”
Cao Shuo thought for a while and said: "The lupine scarf is a young man, if the young lady knows the majestic tune, she can stroke one for me." (To be continued......)
