Chapter 60 Arrest
A map of the new Linfen was spread out on the floor, and Li Mu picked up the pen and picked a suitable house. He first circled all the new Linfen Primary School. Then, we will choose a suitable house to rent with the school as the center.
Education in the colonies was very backward, and the scattered public schools provided only primary education, going to school in the morning and working collectively in the cotton fields of the schools in the afternoon. Only a handful of people were able to pass the flawed unified examination and get admitted to the only public secondary school in the entire Deccan Plateau.
Most of the private schools are concentrated in the three cities of Xinlinfen, Xinyulu and Xinwuwei. Their tuition fees are usually ridiculously high, far beyond the reach of poor civilians.
After robbing Feng Leshan of a sum, Li Mu had the confidence to study in Xinlinfen for his sister.
Li Mei pushed the door and walked in, she knew that Li Mu was hungry very quickly, so she walked in with a big bowl of egg noodles and put it on the side of the map. He sat down next to him.
Li Mu picked up the bowl and ate it, and found that the noodles were firm and chewy, and the more he chewed, the more fragrant they became.
"The noodles are very good."
"I kneaded it."
Li Mei's face was filled with a smug smile, and she looked at the map in Li Mu's hand.
"Have you chosen your school?"
"Not yet, she can't read a few big characters now, I don't know if I should go to a kindergarten first."
Li Mumo rubbed the stubble that came out of his chin, and made up the scene of Li Xuan sitting in the middle of a group of small radish heads learning 1+1. Suddenly, there was a sharp pain in the soft flesh of his waist.
Li Mei gritted her teeth and looked at him.
"What's wrong? I find that you like to screw me more and more. ”
"Hmph, who called you to discriminate against the illiterate, I can't read!"
"Well, it looks like I'll have to find a kindergarten for you, too."
"Li Mu! Don't eat my noodles! ”
The two had a fight, and Li Mu took out the map again and looked at it.
"Okay, don't look at it, Miss Yuan has already arranged the school for Xuan Xuan. When chatting yesterday, she was actually the principal of Fuxing Middle School, and she directly arranged for Xuan Xuan to enroll. ”
"Fuxing Middle School Affiliated Primary School."
Li Mu frowned and thought for a while, it seems that this Yuan Qi's identity is not very simple, Fuxing Middle School is the best middle school in the entire colony, and it is not an ordinary person who can be the principal.
He pointed out the location of Fuxing Middle School on the ground, and the rent near the school was ridiculously expensive, and it was difficult to find a suitable house.
At that moment, there was a sudden knock at the door, and the Negritto maid, who was washing dishes in the kitchen, hurriedly wiped her hands and went to open the door.
Three masked sheriffs stood in the doorway.
The short and fat Negritto maid suddenly shuddered, Zhu Xia was very strict with the control of aliens.
They have special toilets and seats in public places, and they are not allowed to share them with the Zhuxia people. Many shops are closed to outsiders. Every month, the sheriff came to register the whereabouts of the aliens. This measure, which was supposed to prevent crimes by foreigners, has become a front for the sheriffs to extort money.
And in order to save trouble, many sheriffs will randomly arrest a few aliens when dealing with some difficult cases. This made the aliens' legs weak at the sight of the sheriff.
"Hello, Mr. Sheriff,"
The slave girl shivered.
"We are here to investigate a burglary, is Mr. Li Mu here?"
Beneath the mask, the sheriff's voice was somewhat muffled. In New Linfen, masks are a must-have for the sheriffs of the Serious Crime Unit to carry out their tasks. He is worn by any sheriff who does not want to return home and face the corpses of his family in one place.
Li Mei, who was in the room, heard voices outside. The first thing she thought of was the incident of their ransacking of Feng Leshan on platform 75. Like a fried cat, her eyebrows upside down, she rolled into a corner and pulled out the steel sword hidden in the bag.
A chill flashed through the room.
"Don't be nervous."
Li Mu held down her wrist and stopped Li Mei, who was about to riot. He knew what the sheriffs were, and they didn't bother to care about what happened on the outskirts of the city. They are lackeys of the upper classes, and they will only find trouble with those who have provoked the interests of the upper classes.
Platform 75 is far enough away from Xinlinfen, and Feng Leshan is just a local tyrant in a small place, and the sheriffs will not stand up for him. If the Brotherhood of Liberty affair was exposed, it would definitely not be just these sheriffs who came to him.
The first thing he thought of was probably that he borrowed to live in Yuan's house, which caused some people to be taboo.
"You can't have a conflict in someone else's house."
As he spoke, he rubbed his face with his hand and walked out.
"I am Li Mu."
"Today we received a vicious burglary and rape case, please come with us."
One of the sheriffs at the head pulled out a notebook and pretended to check the photo on it.
"Do you have any proof?"
Li Mu stretched out his hand and walked towards them, signaling that he was not threatening. Otherwise, these eager sheriffs might shoot him directly.
"We retrieved the surveillance video from the scene and found that you were in and out of the scene at that time, and you left your * liquid on the female corpse."
Li Mu's eyebrows raised, he remembered the incident of last night, it seems that as long as there are big people who drive, the efficiency of these sheriffs is amazing. In such a short period of time, even the * liquid was faked.
"It seems that good people are not rewarded, right?"
He shrugged at the sheriff.
"We never blame a good person, and we never let a bad person go."
The sheriff was official, but the next moment, he let out a scream like killing a pig. Li Mu grabbed his arm and wanted to twist it. His half-severed arm bone pierced his skin, revealing it.
He glanced at the twisted arm like chicken wings, and looked at Li Mu with disbelief.
"Are you a madman?"
Another sheriff was terrified and tried to pull out the pistol in his holster. was grabbed by the collar by Li Mu and slammed into the wall. With a muffled sound, he felt like his internal organs were about to be shattered.
"Didn't you say that it was never good to blame a good person, and I would make it the truth. Now, take me away. “
Li Mu said in a low voice. He knew that under the premise that these sheriffs knew his identity, it was useless to flee, but would implicate Li Xuan and Li Mei.
The prison of New Zhuxia is not a secret to him, or even to all players. Escaping from it is not a difficult task.
He wants to let the people behind the scenes know that some people are not so easy to mess with.
ps: Thank you for the silent oranges, steamed leeks and dumplings, Detective Li Ergou, Ranyu Fengyun, and Egelska Dragrímsson for their tips.
Yesterday was terrible, my parents came back from a trip, and the train was more than two hours late because of the snow, and it didn't arrive home until 12 pm. Today I had a day's cleaning, and I didn't squeeze out time to code words until the evening.
