101. The Law of Civilized Society
Ou Cheng's expression when he told that he had been kidnapped and killed the seven robbers was as if he was stating a very ordinary trivial matter, which made Xiao Mo, who had just stepped into society, a little unacceptable, and a slight chill down his spine.
"Don't be afraid, for my father to sink those robbers to the bottom of the river...... I still have reservations, you don't have to imagine me as some cold-blooded murderer. When Ou Cheng saw Xiao Mo's expression at this time, he already knew it in his heart, and couldn't help but say comfort.
"Yes...... Is it? Xiao Mo smiled dryly: "But then again, I understand what you mean...... Do you want to say that this kidnapping should also be something that can be settled with money? ”
"Not 'should', but 'definitely.'" Ou Cheng nodded confidently and explained, "Whether they need the most straightforward cash or whatever they need, they can be solved with money, right?" ”
"Can money buy everything in your world?"
"You're not accurate enough, little fat man......" Ou Cheng smiled slightly: "In the world where everyone exists, money can buy everything. ”
"Can money buy the conscience of the kidnappers?" Xiao Mo sneered: "Obviously, this group of guys who want to get something for nothing will not necessarily follow the principle of fair exchange...... Haven't you thought about the possibility of them taking what they want and tearing us up? ”
"So, you're still too young." Ou Cheng didn't rush to answer Xiao Mo's question, but asked instead: "Why do you think the kidnappers wore masks or covered their faces when they kidnapped?" ”
Xiao Mo was stunned, he didn't know why Ou Cheng, who had always been wise, would ask him such a stupid question: "Nonsense, of course you have to cover your face!" Otherwise, are you waiting to be wanted all over the world by the Tiandu Police Station? ”
"So, you think that the kidnappers didn't dare to show their faces because they were afraid of being wanted by the police, right?"
"Isn't it?" Xiao Mo really couldn't understand the mystery of this playful smile in front of Ou Cheng's eyes.
"The reason why you think this is only because you have put the identity of the kidnapper against the police." Ou Cheng said slowly: "In fact, after removing this layer of identity, the kidnappers are just a group of ordinary people who want to live in society......"
"They don't live in the clouds, they don't live in the mountains, they don't live in the wilds, they don't live in people's imagination...... An abstract existence, but a real human being around us. ”
"In other words, even a criminal profession as a brutal kidnapper cannot exist in isolation from society."
Ou Cheng paused, and then said: "You might as well think about it carefully, what are the ransom money that the kidnappers kidnapped and robbed for?" ”
"Of course it's for flowers!" Xiao Mo shouted: "Desperately trying to grab the ransom, it's nothing more than wanting to live a better life and enjoy life!" ”
"You're right, but let me ask you another question, since they are kidnappers, why don't they just grab what they want? Why do you have to buy the ransom money you robbed? ”
"You can't grab everything, do you...... Isn't that death? Xiao Mo frowned and said, "How can you stand by the river without getting your shoes wet...... If you rob too many times, you will inevitably not be able to escape the pursuit of the police. ”
In other words, it is impossible for even a kidnapper as strong as a kidnapper, or even a superhuman being, to ignore any rules, because they have to eat, sleep, use transportation, and interact with the rest of society...... And so on and so forth. ”
"Therefore, force is by no means omnipotent, and the ultimate result of breaking the rules without limits can only be the destruction of the civilized world and the return to barbarism...... No one can be outside the framework of civilized society! ”
"But money is indeed the most powerful force in the world, and its power is strong enough to crush the backbone of most people!"
"Wow, you think you can do whatever you want if you have money!" Schumer rolled his eyes.
Ou Cheng grinned and said leisurely: "I'm sorry, you can really do whatever you want if you have money." ”
"That's what you say...... Surely they'll be able to let us go after they take the money? ”
"Of course!" Ou Cheng snorted coldly: "If they were smart enough, they wouldn't do stupid things like detaining us forever or tearing up the ticket...... Do you believe it or not, I can make them have a ransom in their hands and not spend a penny? ”
If someone else said this, it probably wouldn't have any deterrent effect, but Ou Cheng, who had already become a hostage at this time, said it, but it could have an undoubted deterrent effect.
"I hope it's the same as you......" Xiao Mo felt a little itchy on his nose, and rubbed his nose vigorously, but he felt that his fingertips were sticky and wet, and when he looked closely, it was a large pool of blood!
"Blood!"
Ou Cheng's expression was a little strange: "Why did you suddenly have a nosebleed......"
"I don't know......" Xiao Mo wiped his coat casually, and said helplessly: "I have been bleeding a lot recently, maybe the weather is too dry......
Not long after Xiao Mo finally stopped the nosebleed, the iron door of the originally closed small room was suddenly opened by two tall kidnappers with masks, both of whom held an automatic rifle in their hands, stood still in front of Xiao Mo and Ou Cheng, and pointed at the two......
"You guys! Get up! Come with us! ”
Ou Cheng looked at Xiao Mo, who was a little confused, shrugged his shoulders, stood up first, raised his hands, put them behind his head, and obediently followed the two kidnappers out of the small room.
Xiao Mo and Ou Cheng were escorted by the two kidnappers, and after a long passage, they soon arrived at an empty and dilapidated hall, and the remaining ten or so rich people were all brought here, but their expressions were a little sluggish, and they seemed to have suffered a lot.
The left wall of the hall was filled with countless electronic screens that were divided into small pieces, and on them were the surveillance screens of each small room, at this time, two masked men who looked like leaders were standing in front of the screen with their hands behind their backs, looking from Xiao Mo's side, they could only see two backs, one tall and one short.
"This ...... It's surveillance! Xiao Mo whispered to Ou Cheng: "It turns out that there is a surveillance camera in our room!" ”
"Isn't it normal to have security cameras in the hostage area?" The corners of Ou Cheng's mouth twitched and said.
"This kind of monitoring also has a recording function!"
"So what?"
"Haven't they all listened to our conversations?"
"Or what do you think?" Ou Cheng rolled his eyes: "I said so much in that room, didn't I just say it to the kidnappers?" ”
