Chapter 41: The Scarlet Dress
The smell of blood, the special smell of resentful spirits, the smell of inferior perfume, and the smell of sweat mixed together lingered in her nose, and she didn't know how to describe this wonderful sour smell.
Weighing nine pounds, her cheeks, which were already too white and bloodless, were even more pale with a little blue and black at this time, and at a glance, she was definitely the one who was the least like a living person on this street, and she was fluttering when she walked.
"Why do you look so bad?"
"Don't you smell it?" Heavy nine pounds tilted his head to look at the president, and sniffed, "Strange smell." ”
"What does it smell like?" Matthew suddenly remembered that Lao Zhang had the ability to awaken by weighing nine catties, is this sense of smell really so smart? He didn't smell anything special except for some bloody gas.
Heavy Jiujin sighed, and said seriously: "What a luck, you don't need to know what a wonderful smell it is for the Hong Kong foot king who is bleeding without socks to step on rotten eggs and spray some inferior perfume and pretend that everything has not happened." ”
“...... Well, you don't have to be so specific. ”
"Oh."
"It really doesn't matter?"
"It's okay, it's just a little flustered, I can still hold on."
Matthew nodded and continued to walk forward.
On both sides of the road were four or five storey buildings crowded together, with small boxy windows letting in the light.
The shops on both sides of the street were filled with people sitting inside and out, gathering in twos and threes, most of them with a thick smell of blood.
The resentment was overflowing, but it was suppressed by another force, and this place gave Jiujin a very bad feeling.
Walking,
Just heard a bang, a bloodied person was thrown down from the second floor and smashed to the floor, humming and chirping twice, there was no sound, two shirtless people in slippers came over and dragged people away, the door on the first floor opened, and an aunt came out with a mop and scolded and cleaned the blood stains on the ground.
It weighs nine pounds.
"There are many casinos here, and that person may owe money and can't pay it back, or he may be caught and dealt with."
Weighing nine pounds, it was the first time I saw such a scene.
"Whatever?"
"Huh, whatever?" Matthew smiled, "Even if I save him now, I don't have to wait until tomorrow, as long as he can still stand up and catch his breath for a while, he will crawl to another gambling house to borrow money to continue gambling, of course, if you are willing to help him call the police, I don't mind." ”
"Will the police come?"
"Of course not, the police can only go out sideways when they enter Beizhai, and the fool will come."
Also, weighing nine catties and pursing his dry lips and tongue, the dead air of this village is too strong, several times richer than that of the morgue.
Where to go to what cemeteries and mass graves, if you sing the requiem here, you will definitely gain a certain amount of leverage.
But—
Weighing nine pounds, he looked at the crowded crowd around her, the pedestrians who seemed to be idle but were actually vicious, she might have to be hammered to the point that her health fell below zero before she could finish singing, the danger factor was too high, and the escape route was not familiar.
To open your voice in front of the public is to die.
Heavy nine pounds followed Matthew all the way to the end of the street, a woman in a big red gauze dress came over and took Matthew's hand and snuggled into his arms, "Boss, do you want to have a drink?", this time the president didn't push it away, but signaled Heavy Nine Pounds to follow.
It seems to be an acquaintance.
Matthew took the woman's shoulders and walked into a tavern at the end of the street.
The red-gauze woman led the person to the corner of the bar, and waited with her hands around her chest for a long time, "You're late." ”
Matthew smiled and put the folded banknotes into the wine glass and pushed it in front of the woman in the red gauze, "I'll punish myself." ”
The woman in the red gauze raised her eyebrows, took the wine glass with a smile on her face, and raised her chin, "Who is this?" ”
"My assistant, my own people."
Only then did the red gauze woman speak, "There is a group of people who came this morning, it should be the person you are looking for, yes, they came to Beizhai not long ago, but they are in the limelight during this time, and they should have made a lot of money, and no one knows their details." At this point she stopped and continued to smile at Matthew, her fingers spinning in circles on the glass.
Matthew put another bundle of bills into his glass.
"They still have a batch of goods that need to be sent out in these two days, because the price is relatively low in a hurry, although the wind is tight, but there are many people who are willing to take over, some of them are going to have fun tonight, these people have very special preferences, and there are not many massage parlors willing to entertain them." As he spoke, he pressed a piece of paper under the empty wine glass.
"Thank you."
"Thank you for your patronage." The woman in the red gauze handed Matthew and the weight of nine pounds, and the two of them each gave a flying kiss and turned around and floated away.
Matthew's chin raised towards the back of the red gauze woman, "This is the tavern proprietress Red Yarn, very well-informed." ”
Weighing nine catties, there were golden lines in her pupils, and seeing the back of the proprietress walking away, she saw a red gauze dress that seemed to flow and red blood flew around the proprietress's body, forming a blood-colored human shape.
That's the true spirit form of the proprietress
Damn it, just one glance, the consciousness was consumed in an instant, and it hurt so much that he weighed nine pounds and immediately closed his eyes and pressed his eyes with his palms.
"Are you alright?"
Weighing nine catties and shaking his head, "She's talking about Chen Feng's family?" ”
"At the moment, it seems very likely." Matthew seemed to have thought of something, and his expression was solemn, "What they are doing is probably not an ordinary human trafficking, and I am afraid that it is also a shady business in Beizhai." ”
"Is the girl still alive?"
"It's possible, but it's hard to say whether it's a blessing or a curse."
Being alive in such a situation is not necessarily lucky.
Weighing nine catties, knowing that what he saw today was just the tip of the iceberg of Beizhai, he could form a bloody resentment that was almost condensed into substance, and the number of unnatural deaths in this village must be very terrifying.
President Matthew put down the empty wine glass, "Anyway, our mission is to help the client find his daughter." ”
There was no danger for the time being this night, but the weight of nine catties saw the unusual situation of Beizhai.
Weighing nine pounds, he faintly felt that President Matthew was deliberate.
Beizhai and Jingchu urban areas seem to be two worlds, obviously in the same city, but in this place, human life is like a mustard, there is no police and no so-called justice.
It's like a glossy city underground sewer pipe, with clogged sewage outlets that accumulate germs and stench.
Matthew left the tavern with nine pounds.
"Interested in going around?"
Weighing nine pounds, he quickly realized that what President Matthew said was actually stepping on the point, and the information given by the tavern proprietress Red Yarn only confirmed Matthew's speculation.
Matthew briefly explained today's plan to the nine pounds, determine where these people are staying, find the place where the 'goods' are hidden, and if the missing girl is found successfully, whether the other party is dead or alive, find a way to take it away, if not, then talk about it.
The plan can be described as very rudimentary, crude and casual, and it can be summed up in four words - act on the opportunity.
The two men huddled in the corner of a house, cautiously peering out, staring at the back door of a small clock hotel across the street, holding their breath.
It's almost a camera in his hand, especially like a paparazzi squatting to capture celebrity scandals, waiting for the wonderful moment when he walks in or walks out hand in at the door of a small hotel.
"This group of people is not the indigenous people of Beizhai, nor is it Jingchu people, I heard the front desk of the massage parlor say that one of them has an accent that seems to be from the south, and the accents of several people are very different, and it can be determined that it is a mobile gang that is traveling around the country to commit crimes."
"It's hard for the police to catch them when they shoot and change places."
"Someone came out." Weighing nine pounds, he watched the back door be opened, and two people, one black and one white, walked out of the back door with their front and back feet.
At this time, Matthew took out a small leather book from his backpack.
Weighing nine pounds, a prompt message floated through his mind: "I found the president's handbook that looks shabby and stained with blood and sweat, do you pick it up?" ”
"No." weighs nine pounds and doesn't hesitate to say no, what are you kidding, she only has so many points left, and it is so difficult to survive that she still plays with the account book.
"What is this?"
"Bounty Wanted." Matthew opened the account book, flipped to the page with several yellowed business cards sandwiched between them, looked at the headshot, and then looked at the two people who walked out the door, and smiled, "No wonder I feel familiar, there are two people in this gang who are wanted, although I have made facial fine-tuning, I can still find similarities if I look closely." ”
The two of them had obviously eaten and drunk enough to play, not only walking staggeringly, but also very vain.
Weighing nine pounds, he glanced at Matthew and immediately followed.
