Volume 1 Chapter 318 The Drunkard
As soon as he saw this badge of the Dragon Regiment, where did Brother Zhong not know the seriousness of the situation? At most, these people were the little gangsters on the side of Hongyi City, and the high interest rates that they usually collected and lent out would be over, where could they meet a regular army like the Dragon Regiment? Not to mention the Dragon Regiment, even the local judicial organs of Hongyi City, the Civil Security Division and the Dali Division, they had never seen much of it.
Seeing Ren Tianxiang slap the badge on the table, Brother Zhong immediately sat up straight and said, "My lord, what do you want to investigate, I, Zhong Suo, must know everything and actively cooperate with the adult's investigation, I ......"
"Okay, okay, you don't have to be loyal to me, and you don't dare to lie to me. Ren Tianxiang directly interrupted Zhong Suo's words, stood up, and pretended to be fierce and said, "Come here with me, I have a lot of questions for you." ”
Saying that, he didn't care about Zhong Shuo, and walked to the table of Xinglingluo and Xuanyuan Liuli by himself. However, this Zhong Suo didn't have the courage of a gangster at all, and he didn't see any signs of running away at this time, so he followed Ren Tianxiang like this, walked to the table of the three and stood still, not daring to say a word.
Ren Tianxiang was a little surprised at this time, he was still thinking, if this Zhong Suo wanted to run, it meant that he knew what happened before, and he must know that the evil soul was broken. But he didn't run now, but still had a confused expression, Ren Tianxiang was going to ask him well, in case he was sent by the Evil Soul Breaker to confuse him.
However, Ren Tianxiang has been busy here for a long time, but Xinglingluo and Xuanyuan Liuli don't know what he is busy with. After Ren Tianxiang sat down, Xing Lingluo leaned forward and asked Ren Tianxiang with a smile: "Tianxiang, who is this?"
Ren Tianxiang casually pointed at Zhong Suo and replied, "Do you remember what I told you before? I met my senior brother in Hongyi City before the start of the academy competition, and this person was the person who came to my senior brother to collect a loan at that time, and I was scared back. I happened to meet him today, so I called him over to ask about the situation...... After all, my brother is not the kind of person who would go to the point of borrowing money to drink. Moreover, if he is very related to my brother, he can still find my brother...... There are some accounts, I have to find him to settle them out. ”
This Zhong Shuo was also eavesdropping on Ren Tianxiang's speech, and when he heard that the drunkard he had calculated before was the senior brother of the young man in front of him, Zhong Shuo suddenly panicked, and quickly knelt down, practicing and begging for mercy: "Shaoxia, I didn't know that the drunkard was Shaoxia's senior brother before, and I was offended by many things before, so I beg Shaoxia to let me go as a fart." I have an 80-year-old mother and a 3-year-old son, and I ......."
"Okay, who said they were going to kill you?" Ren Tianxiang interrupted Zhong Suo's cry impatiently, "Stand up, I have something to ask you." ”
Zhong Suo stood up, patted the dust on his pants, and then said flatteringly: "Eh, okay, young man, just ask." ”
Ren Tianxiang played with the shot glass in his hand, and thought carefully about what questions he should ask Zhong Shuo next, so that he could ask the situation he wanted to know in the short time. But in Zhong Shuo's eyes, his expression became that he was thinking about how to torture himself, and suddenly Zhong Shuo was so anxious that cold sweat broke out.
Finally, Ren Tianxiang thought about the question and asked directly: "The drunkard who was with me before...... How much do you know?"
"Huh?" Zhong Shuo was stunned for a moment, thinking that he had heard it wrong, shouldn't the drunkard drink the young man in front of him is a brother-in-law relationship, why did he still ask himself, but Zhong Shuo was not stunned for long, anyway, it must be no problem for the young man to answer whatever he asked. So he replied, "That drunkard probably moved to the slums of the city more than ten years ago, and he was about twenty years old at that time, and his whole cultivation was abolished, and he also had a younger sister. We don't know what the reason is for him, he seems to be still sick, and the whole person is dying at any time. But that's how he pulled his sister up. Actually, there is nothing wrong with him except that he loves to drink, but no one in the city wants to give him a decent job, and everyone looks at him like that, and they are afraid that he will die one day when he works for himself, and he will have to lose a lot of money. The drunkard has been living on scrap all these years, and he can get by, and he can buy some wine to drink on weekdays, and if she hadn't had to pay for his sister's tuition last time, maybe he would never have come to us to borrow money in his life......"
"You know that he borrowed money from you and could not repay it according to the deadline, and you still want to borrow from him...... Could it be true that according to my guess, your original purpose was to want his sister?"
Hearing this question, Zhong Shuo lowered his head and said in a low voice: "He wanted to borrow this money, and we made it clear to him before the drawing, and the painting was voluntary by him, this ...... Such a situation is protected by the laws of the Empire, and we have nothing to do. ”
Hearing this, Ren Tianxiang frowned slightly. Unexpectedly, the Star Emperor Kingdom claimed to have such perfect laws, but there was still such a situation, which was a little surprising to him. Of course, in order to prevent Zhong Shuo from lying to him, he deliberately looked at Xing Lingluo and asked her if this was indeed the case. And Xing Lingluo also understood the meaning of the inquiry in Ren Tianxiang's eyes, so he nodded affirmatively.
Taking a deep breath, Ren Tianxiang said: "You guys are abducting and selling girls, right? Although there is no transgression according to the imperial law, you can really do this kind of thing of exploiting the loopholes in the law, you are forcing the Constituent Yuan of the Prime Minister's Mansion to rewrite the law, right?"
"The little one didn't dare, and the little one promised the young man that he would never do this kind of thing again in the future. ”
"Count you as acquaintances. Ren Tianxiang took a sip, and he didn't know what to say next. Originally, he had thought of a series of questions he wanted to ask, but Zhong Suo's interruption made him emotionally incoherent, and he didn't even remember what to say for a while.
But fortunately, Ren Tianxiang still has Xinglingluo by his side, a person who has a heart and soul with him, seeing that Ren Tianxiang fell into silence, Xinglingluo didn't know what was going on, so he said to Zhong Suo instead of Ren Tianxiang: "Okay, we won't tell you anything else, I'll ask you a question now, are the drunkard and his sister still in Hongyi City?"
"Yes, yes, yes. Zhong Suo nodded hurriedly, "His house is in the slum area east of Hongyi City, and I saw him when I went to collect money a few days ago." ”
Hearing Zhong Suo say this, Ren Tianxiang, Xing Lingluo and Xuanyuan Liuli glanced at each other, and immediately noticed that something was wrong.
"Zhong Shuo, you take us to have a look. ”
