Chapter 58: Kang Tianji (II)
And there are only two outcomes for the boy, either he will sell it at a high price, or he will stay and train it to become a nurse, if he doesn't have the ability to be a nurse, he can only be the so-called turtle male.
Song Da Horn continued: "Kang Huaniang didn't want her child to be a turtle father, so she sold the child, because her child was handsome, and the boss from Rehe liked it very much and offered a very high price, but after Kang Huaniang got the money, she returned the money to the boss in person, and put forward a condition, she said that if the child grows up in the future and she is still alive, she must see the child with her own eyes, of course, she will not tell the truth to the child......"
This incident was taken as a joke by the people of Peach Blossom Lane, except for those prostitutes who had done the same thing, everyone else thought Kang Hua Niang was stupid.
Why not money? As a prostitute here, after twenty-five years, you will be old, no one will redeem you, and few people will wrap your house again, in the jargon it is "thank you", which means withering.
If you don't want money, people can't wait for it, even if you promise you, even if you write a promise, they won't let you see your children in the future. One hand to pay and one hand to deliver, the transaction is completed, do not owe each other, do not know each other, this is the rule.
No one thought that many years later, Kang Huaniang actually took back her child, but the child looked different from other children, asked what to say, looked sluggish, and didn't understand anything except eating and drinking, even so, Kang Huaniang still waited like a baby every day.
When Tang Qianlin heard this, he immediately asked: "With a sluggish face, you don't know anything except eating and drinking?" Does this kid also have no memories of the past? He had no idea where Kang Hua Niang had brought him back, right? ”
Song Da Horn looked at Tang Qianlin in surprise: "How do you know?" ”
Tang Qianlin turned his head to look at Li Yunfan and Yi Mochen, they were getting closer and closer to the truth, this child named Kang Tianji had the same characteristics as Zhang Liankai back then, and Ma Tong later.
Yi Mochen stepped forward and asked, "Okay, let's want to know now, where is the child?" Bring it to us. ”
At this time, Li Yunfan didn't know about Ma Tong, and he didn't understand why Yi Mochen was so anxious, but on the contrary, he signaled him to calm down.
"The child has already left Peach Blossom Lane." Song Da Loudspeaker said unhurriedly, "After Kang Huaniang's bizarre and violent death, we dealt with the child in accordance with the rules." ”
Tang Qianlin said: "What? Dealt with? What happened? ”
Li Yunfan stepped forward and said: "Calm down, it's not that the child is killed, but the child is sold, Peach Blossom Lane is very superstitious here, if the prostitute or the old bustard who raises the child dies strangely and violently, or dies of a strange disease, according to the rules, the child must be sold, whether male or female." ”
Tang Qianlin asked, "Who did you sell the child to?" ”
Song Da Horn was not in a hurry to answer Tang Qianlin's question: "Now you should tell me, how did Kang Hua Niang die?" Why does it look like he was burned to death? And why is it so painful when you die? ”
Tang Qianlin pondered for a moment and asked, "Before Kang Huaniang died, did she just eat or smoke a lot?" ”
Song Da Loudspeaker said: "Kang Hua Niang doesn't smoke a lot, she died at about ten o'clock in the evening, suddenly screamed in the room, and the nursing home rushed in, and found Kang Hua Niang lying there struggling, and died not long after, and when she died, she maintained the appearance you saw." ”
Li Yunfan asked: "Where was Kang Tianji at that time?" ”
Song Da said: "It's in the room, standing in front of Kang Huaniang's bed, with a smile on his face." ”
Yi Mochen asked, "And then?" ”
"Then the people below found that Kang Huaniang was out of breath and asked Kang Tianji, Kang Tianji didn't know anything, just said it was fun." Song Da Horn sighed and said, "No way, we originally wanted to bury Kang Huaniang, but she died too strangely, and the people below came to ask me, I thought this thing was too strange, I had to investigate, so I ......"
"Wait!" Tang Qianlin interrupted Song Da's loudspeaker, "When you asked me to capture Qianlin just now, I was very strange, plus you were too cautious in dealing with Kang Huaniang's matter, I don't believe this is what you mean, Zu Bustard, don't go around in circles, who told you to do this?" ”
Song Da Loudspeaker looked at Tang Qianlin, and finally smiled after a long time: "I knew that there was a loophole, after Kang Huaniang died, someone paid for me to do this, and asked me to keep the body and wait for you here, that's all." ”
Tang Qianlin asked, "Who is this person?" ”
Song Da Horn said: "I don't know, he just asked a beggar to send a robe and a letter, the letter said, if you don't do what he said, all of us here will die, if you do what he says, the silver ticket in the robe is mine." ”
Li Yunfan was stunned: "Silver ticket? ”
At that time, although there was no private money bank in Harbin, there was still a black market, and the silver tickets presented were all gold bars and silver dollars that could still be circulated throughout China.
Song Da Horn took out the robe and the letter from the box.
Tang Qianlin handed over the robe to Yi Mochen and Li Yunfan for inspection, while he looked at the letter.
The letter is written in a thin gold font, the pen is smooth, and the pen exudes a sharp air, indicating that the person who wrote the letter has a certain cultural background, not to mention, and is extremely confident.
Li Yunfan put down his robe and said, "There's nothing special, just a robe." ”
Tang Qianlin handed the letter back to Song Da Loudspeaker: "Zu Bustard, I can only tell you that Kang Huaniang's death has something to do with that child, and the specific cause of death is the burning of the body, if you don't believe it, just cut open her stomach and see, but if you want to find out about this matter, you have to tell me where Kang Tianji was sold by you?" ”
Song Da Horn said two words: "Hades City." ”
Tang Qianlin was puzzled: "Hades? What is that place? ”
Yi Mochen stepped forward at this time but asked, "Zu Bustard, who did you sell Kang Tianji to someone in the underworld?" ”
Song Da Horn said: "According to the previous rules, it was sold to the night merchant who came to the door." ”
Who is a night seller? When Tang Qianlin was confused, Yi Mochen said: "Zu Bustard, take care of yourself, I hope you don't get involved too deeply in this matter." ”
After speaking, Yi Mochen turned around and left: "Let's go, I know where to find Kang Tianji." ”
Tang Qianlin nodded slightly to Song Da Horn, turned around and followed Yi Mochen and Li Yunfan downstairs, while Song Da Horn stood there, staring at the corpse in the box, and called the second calf for a long time to come up: "Slowly dissect the corpse after thawing." ”
The second calf was stunned: "Dissect, dissect?" ”
Song Da shouted: "Yes, open it, I want to see if what they said is true." ”
After Tang Qianlin and the three of them hurried back to the car, Tang Qianlin immediately asked, "What kind of place is the underworld?" What does a night merchant do? ”
"Drive in the direction of Songpu, and after arriving in Songpu, go directly into the ghost forest and go to Hulan." After Yi Mochen said this to Li Yunfan, he looked at Tang Qianlin and said, "The underworld is a place where foreign businessmen gather in Harbin, but they often change their locations, and only foreign businessmen who do business will receive a notice of changing their address, and the night merchant is a merchant who has been allowed to go to the city to walk the streets and alleys to sell all kinds of rare items on the market." ”
Tang Qianlin realized that the original "Hades City" outside the Guanai is the so-called "ghost market" in the rivers and lakes in the Guannei, and there are many kinds of names for the ghost market in the Guannei, and there are also called "Zishi Shop", as the name suggests, it is the place where the shop will be opened when the child is located, and there is also a place called "Three Sticks of Incense", which means that the time of the Three Sticks of Incense will not be closed.
There are many rules for foreign merchants, and the rules of each store, that is, each stall have different rules, but all foreign merchants do business in the underworld, and they do not accept any government-issued banknotes, not even US dollars and pounds, they must be real money, or barter.
Yi Mochen said: "After Japan made the puppet Manchurian, the underworld began to change places frequently, although it has not been noticed by the Japanese so far, but I think it is a matter of time, because the Japanese have set up a secret search class." ”
Li Yunfan said while driving: "I only learned about the underworld and the night merchants through my father, and as far as I know, the Japanese are not interested in these for the time being, because so far, any anti-Japanese cases that have occurred have nothing to do with the underworld." ”
Yi Mochen shook his head and said: "That's only temporary, I'm all in the name of the Japanese, not to mention others." ”
Tang Qianlin thought of this, and suddenly said, "You say, could the mastermind behind the scenes also be a foreign businessman?" ”
Yi Mochen looked at Tang Qianlin: "You shouldn't doubt me, right?" ”
Tang Qianlin said with a smile: "You are too careful, I am just thinking that there will be all kinds of possibilities, by the way, the foreign businessmen here generally buy children, what do they do?" ”
"I heard that some of them are for apprentices...... Yi Mochen looked out the window, looking worried, "Actually, I don't know much, after all, it's the rule not to ask where you come from, and not to ask where you are going, so I'm also worried that we won't get anything today." ”
Tang Qianlin comforted him and said, "Anyway, we have a clue now." ”
Li Yunfan said in front: "I think this matter is still related to Zhang Liankai." ”
Tang Qianlin said: "It's the same as I thought......"
The car quickly drove to the place called the ghost forest in Songpu, and Li Yunfan, under the instructions of Yi Mochen, drove towards the ghost forest, and after walking for a while, Li Yunfan found that he had gone back to the original road.
Yi Mochen said: "We can only walk. ”
Yi Mochen opened the car door and got out of the car, stood beside the car, looked around, and said loudly: "I am Yi Mochen, the number C, and the code is the four beasts." ”
After Yi Mochen finished speaking, it didn't take long for a man to come out of the darkness wearing an overcoat and tightly wrapped all over his body, and the man was carrying a long knife wrapped in a white cloth behind him.
Yi Mochen looked at the man wearing a hat and covering his scarf with only one pair of eyes exposed, and said in a low voice: "This is the Apostle of the Underworld, don't speak." ”
The Apostle of the Underworld walked to a place five meters away from Yi Mochen and the three of them and stopped, and asked, "Who are the two of them?" ”
"My guest." Yi Mochen replied simply, "Don't worry, it's clean, I guarantee them." ”
The Apostle of the Underworld City said coldly: "Boss Yi, you are only a C-number, and you are not qualified to guarantee. ”
Yi Mochen took a jade plaque from his waist and threw it to the Apostle of the Underworld: "I guarantee the qualification of the C-brand foreign merchant in the underworld, if something happens, I will quit the foreign merchant and never set foot in the underworld." ”
