Chapter 9 A clear conscience
Zhu Ping held a gun in his hand, and every time he took a step forward, the person in front of him took a step back.
The dense crowd slowly dispersed, passively carving out a path.
"No matter how much you make waves in the port, I can't control it.
Just move my people.
That's death! ”
Zhu Ping pointed a gun at the gang members, his eyes looked around, and no one dared to look at him.
Then, he threw out a dozen silver coins and looked at the workers carrying the goods on the dock: "Just a few people come out and carry the carriage to Hall Castle, the money is yours!"
Don't worry about retaliation!
Whoever dares to move a finger of you, I will make him regret coming to this world, believe me ......" Zhu Ping's voice was extremely steady, as if he was discussing what to eat tonight.
However, the dock workers were attracted by the silver coins, but they hesitated to take them, and they were afraid of the revenge of the gang members, so they stuck between the two people and did not dare to step forward.
Most of these workers are honest and honest, otherwise they would not be bullied like this by the gangsters.
Seeing that the situation was deadlocked, Lina wiped the stains from her little face, broke away from her brother's protection, stepped forward, and said in a pleasant and firm voice:
"Do you know who he is? He is the Lord Hall who rushed out of the newspapers on the streets and alleys half a month ago, the aristocrat who accidentally killed the employee. ”
Hearing the girl's words, the cowardly workers subconsciously retreated.
Some time ago, rumors were circulating everywhere that the Baron Hall had beaten his employees to death with a stick in the street.
Even they knew that many nobles paid attention to gentlemanly demeanor on the surface, and secretly had a lot of blood under their hands.
But it's one thing to come in the dark.
It's another thing to come out in the open.
The alluring silver coins on the ground are like bright and beautiful poisonous snakes at this time, making people only dare to look at them from afar, but not from a close look.
A self-deprecating smile appeared on the girl's delicate face: "But ...... Do you know who I am? I was the daughter of the employee, the daughter of the father whom he had beaten to death, in the rumors, in the newspapers.
While the gang members assassinated me, the Lord Sir protected me.
You can't figure it out! You don't understand what's going on! ”
Immediately, a sneering expression that did not match her age appeared on her delicate face: "Aren't you surprised that the newspapers and the streets and alleys are all news that slanders this adult?"
In the past, the newspapers were singing about the kindness and generosity of the nobles, how could it be possible to openly discredit the nobles and hype up the scandal of the Hall family.
Because the news is fake, this Lord Sir has never killed his employees, his integrity and kindness are disliked by those who are filthy at heart, and he is wronged and discredited.
The evidence that you have seen before is the strongest proof of what I have just said. ”
As the words fell, a noise erupted in the crowd.
"It seems to be true, the negative news about the nobility in the past disappeared immediately, but this one has been hot all the time, and he must be smeared."
"What this girl said makes sense, otherwise the gang would have kidnapped her, why did this noble lord go into danger to save him."
"Such an upright and kind Lord Jazz is given such a reputation, and it is despicable that the big man hidden in the shadows is despicable!"
“……”
No one believed that Baron Hall in front of him was acting, and the boss of the White Shark Gang had fallen in a pool of blood, which was the best proof of this.
Lina knew that what she had said had achieved the desired effect, so she silently retreated.
The position of the protagonist is returned to Zhu Ping.
In the crowd, an old man in his fifties took the lead in picking up two and said, "I used to be a coachman, and I haven't lost my craft, so it would be my honor if I could get hired by you." ”
Under the threat of pistols, no one dared to come forward and rob them.
A gang member tried to impersonate a worker to receive money, and was immediately shot and warned by Nina's maid.
Among the dock workers, seven or eight more people came out, each picked up one or two, and looked respectfully at Zhu Ping, who was standing in everyone's eyes.
"Hmm." Zhu Ping nodded, pulled the two children and turned their heads away.
The breeze blows the skirt of the tuxedo, and the back is gloomy......
……
Night.
Zhu Ping returns to Hall Castle, the only place in the other world where he can give himself a sense of security.
The courtyard is no longer filled with the scent of birds and flowers during the day, except for the occasional chirping of insects.
Rubbing the freckled girl's fluffy blonde hair: "Don't be afraid, I will protect you." ”
"Huh?" Lina was sobbing quietly in the dark, but the sudden warmth caught her off guard.
"Today, you're doing well, go to Nina's maid and ask for a new dress! Let's just say I bought it. Zhu Ping didn't mean anything else, so he wanted to send the little girl beside him away quickly.
"Thank you...... Thank you, Sir Sir. The girl was slightly stunned by the touch, then bowed and walked out along the crutches.
"Gross!"
There were no outsiders, Zhu Ping could no longer suppress his stomach that was overturned by the rivers and seas, and lowered his head and vomited in the flowers.
When the mind is full of anger, you can still hold up your spirit, and when the effect of the extraordinary ability is over, the bloody and hideous scenes begin to appear in your mind one after another like a slide.
At this time, he could no longer suppress the fear in his heart, and the disgust for the smell of blood.
Zhu Ping panicked, because in the end, the bullet of the revolver in his hand had been emptied later, and he was just pretending to be a tiger.
Even if he has the strength of Sequence 8.
Theoretically, no one can stop it.
But a week ago, he was just a helpless chicken, wandering around the cafeteria, dormitory, classroom, and fat house all day long.
He doesn't know how to fight, he has a lot of energy, and for a while, he can't help but panic in his heart and wants to squat down with his head in his hands.
No one can adapt to their own strength, their own identity, and this world of fate as soon as they cross over.
The terrible screams echoed in my ears, stimulating the spirit, stimulating the body, making the stomach involuntarily loose and tight, as if I had to give away all the food I ate in the morning before I could stop.
Zhu Ping vomited like this for a while, and his body curled up in the flowers, trying to make the world unable to find him.
……
[Zhu Ping, can you hear me? 】
"Well, I can hear you.
Last time you needed me to measure the data, I measured it, the pendulum method, using cotton rope and wire...... As the data of the rope shaking sixty turns, it is ......"
[Thank you very much for your help, have you encountered anything unhappy recently, or have you encountered any difficulties?] 】
"How do you know?"
The voice on the phone changed from an announcer who spoke extremely fast and Mo was emotional, to an old man who was full of energy.
[I'm Professor Zhao, who studies neuromedicine with a minor in psychology, and through the analysis of your vocal spectrum, you are currently in a state of low mood, restlessness, and irritability.
You also showed a moderate amount of agitation in the last call, and this time it was more severe. 】
Zhu Ping ignored the details that he didn't need to pay attention to, such as his privacy being explored, laughed at himself, and said with a smile: "I killed someone!" Kill more than one ......"
[Zhu Ping, who did you kill? Why, and what is the motivation? Don't hold it back, talk to us, maybe I can help you. 】
"There's nothing to hide, last time you said let me look for the employee's children, I found them, and then they were kidnapped by the gang, and I went to save them.
Then there was a conflict.
Hehe, am I considered a righteous and courageous act, can I offset the merits and demerits? ”
Zhu Ping's laughter was full of coldness and confusion.
[Child, I have read your resume, and I know that you are not a cruel person.
Normally, I will choose to persuade you with countless beautiful words to let you escape from the boredom in your heart.
But this time, I don't want you to choose to escape, because you are in another world, only a few of us old guys can help you verbally, everything depends on you.
You can only survive in a parallel world by making your heart strong. 】
The voice on the phone paused, as if the corners of his mouth were a little closer to the microphone.
[To kill someone is to kill someone, to escape, repent, and use one excuse after another to hide the facts that you don't want to face in your heart.
It was in vain.
There is no savior in this world, and there is no omnipotent immortal...... Escaping doesn't change the facts. 】
"I'm really annoyed by this world!" Zhu Ping's heart was anxious, and he couldn't help but hammer to the ground, relying on a slight tingling sensation, he got a little pleasure.
[There are no laws and no constraints in the world you live in...... We are light years away, and there is nothing we can do other than make a few trivial suggestions every few days.
You can't run away because you have nowhere to run and you can only try to ask yourself.
Is it right or wrong?
What is said and done, is it right and evil?
Moral benevolence, right and wrong, honor and disgrace, can only be judged by yourself!
In another world, the only thing you can rely on is yourself. 】
The voice on the phone is getting louder and louder, and it is deafening!
[There is no order in the world you are in, there is no time for you to choose, and what you do is enough to have a clear conscience! 】
Zhu Ping's sloppy eyes gradually condensed, and his eyes lit up slightly.
"Yes! I was actually afraid, and the fear was not only blood, but also the self-reproach for the killing in my heart.
Fear makes me want to escape, to find a spiritual sustenance, to find a god to comfort me, to prove that I am not an executioner!
I shouldn't run away, what is the merit and demerit?
Gong is work, passing is passing, right is right, wrong is wrong!
Running away won't solve anything.
What is good and evil to talk about? What is Light? What is Darkness?
This is not my hometown, there is no law, there is no benchmark for me to refer to, only by establishing my own 'scale of right and wrong' in my heart, I will not get lost in chaos.
If you want to survive in this world, you always have to change, if you escape and fear, the self-blame in your heart will accumulate more and more, and one day you will crush yourself.
In this case, it is better to face it calmly, even if you are deep in darkness, what can you do?
A clear conscience is enough! ”
Zhu Ping felt a warm current gushing out of his chest, echoing around his body, and the spirit in his heart reached Ling Xiao like a long dragon.
It's like the heroic righteousness often said in the book!
"Ahh
With a loud roar, the birds and beasts were scattered!
