Chapter 73. The girl can't kill people like this
Zhou Jinru was very calm and asked rhetorically, "Can't you?" ”
"This is your choice, I have no right to interfere, but you must know that this is Gotham, as you saw just now, those councillors are nobles in the traditional sense, and they will not tolerate anyone pointing fingers at their heads, even Victoria!"
"I know."
The silver fox stared, she didn't care about the life or death of those Sakaz people, even if they were all dead, it had nothing to do with her, but what was going on with the man in front of her, if it was him before, he would be as indifferent as herself, but now she plans to intervene, and she doesn't care what will happen at all.
"I don't know what happened to you, but, Zhou, why are you helping those Sakaz, are they doing you any good?"
Zhou Jinru shook his head, not only is the Sakaz people not good for him at this moment, even if the time is moved to 1098, it is also difficult to produce a good reaction, but he can't tolerate himself standing by and being a cold-eyed spectator.
"Athos, I understand you, you don't need to participate, it has nothing to do with you in the first place."
Even if she has little contact and doesn't know much, Zhou Jinru knows very well what kind of person the silver fox is, she values herself more than anything else, and she is only interested in what she wants to do.
"You're a madman! You've gone crazy! ”
The silver fox suddenly taunted loudly, kicked away the discarded tin cans on the side of the road, pointed at Zhou Jinru's nose, and scolded angrily: "You want to be a hero, you want to be a hero, are those Victorian thieves infected you, or have you returned to the second year of junior high school, full of unrealistic fantasies?!" ”
Zhou Jinru stretched out his hand to pull away her fingertips, and said lightly: "The story of the grand thief has been circulated for a long time because the people at the bottom are dissatisfied with the oppression of the rulers, and the unrealistic fantasy in the second year of junior high school is because you can only express your emotions through fantasy, Athos, you are wrong, I am telling you this, I don't want you to help me, I am telling you what I am going to do, I don't mean to discuss with you, don't misunderstand." ”
"Then you can be a hero yourself!"
The silver fox walked away in a rage.
Just as Zhou Jinru was about to return to the hotel with his legs, the ugly internal combustion car drove over, and the female driver honked at him vigorously, as if to vent her anger.
"I hate you!"
"Me too."
The silver fox was mad, grabbed the co-pilot's bag and threw it on Zhou Jinru's body, threw his face to the other side, and said hatefully: "Get in the car for me!" ”
He didn't refuse this, after all, it was a waste of time to rush on his legs.
The two ignored no one along the way, and the broken car drove them back to the hotel, but they were stopped without thinking.
A pair of heavily armed guards stopped at the door of the hotel, and one of them shouted loudly: "The Gotham City Guard is enforcing the law, and the idlers are waiting to retreat!" ”
The silver fox was already on fire, but when he saw this scene, he broke out on the spot and reprimanded loudly: "There is a problem with the hotel I live in, why don't I know?!" ”
"Ma'am, be careful about your words," the guard is not uninformed, and the hot people who can drive internal combustion cars are all existences that he can't afford to provoke, and if he is not careful, he will be ruined," We got a tip-off that this hotel harbors demon guys, and a search is now underway. ”
"How can there be Sakaz here?"
Silver Fox was taken aback, she had learned that the Sakaz had been captured before she moved in, and now why did she come out again?
Zhou Jinru said calmly: "A few people have worked hard, I am curious about who you want to arrest, how can you hold on to such a long family for half a month?" ”
Compared to the grumpy lady, this gentleman's words sounded much more comfortable, and he was also very polite, which made people feel like a spring breeze.
The surrounding atmosphere eased suddenly, and the guard in charge of the blockade said seriously: "The person we want to arrest is the female apprentice who is specially responsible for serving the hotel's giveaway cakes, and she is hiding here." ”
Zhou Jinru narrowed his eyes, so he couldn't get rid of that porter?
"I see, do you think that I and this lady look like Sakaz?"
"Not really."
The guard shook his head.
Ms. Filmin could tell from the appearance that this mild-mannered gentleman was even more unlikely.
"Since neither of us is the target, then we have no problem returning to the hotel, right?"
It seems like so.
No matter how you look at these two people, they are not easy to mess with, and now that the guards have decided to take a step back, being too tough will only cause trouble for themselves.
"I can give you permission, but you can't interfere with the ongoing search."
The car drove past the blockade of the guards, and the silver fox looked at the man next to him incredulously, those words couldn't even be deceived by children, but why did he flicker over in a few words?
Zhou Jinru didn't speak, he didn't want to explain, and he didn't want to tell Silver Fox about his special abilities right now.
The premise of guiding emotions is that the other party's heart produces corresponding emotions, and the effect of forcible guidance is very weak, and the guards are afraid of their identities before they can be quietly guided to make him make a decision that meets Zhou Jinru's expectations.
"Instead of asking me why I was able to do it, think about it, why did that porter hide Sakaz's female apprentice, I think he is quite young, it should be a relationship problem, only in this way will he take the risk and hide people in the hotel, this is indeed a good idea, the most dangerous place is the safest place, but why was it discovered?"
Silver Fox pouted, you said everything I wanted to say, and let me say anything?
After parking the car, the two walked into the front hall of the hotel and found more than a dozen guards standing here.
"Lay down your arms, I'm not kidding, otherwise none of you will end well, I promise!"
"What's going on?!"
A man in a black armed uniform appeared in the antechamber, his eagle-sharp eyes sweeping over the faces of Silver Fox and Zhou Jinru.
The man next to him didn't know him, and he didn't appear on the file, but the little lady Filin knew that the silver fox, who represented a number of Victorian consortia, had a mysterious identity and background, but his energy was so great that even the members of the parliament could only nod their heads.
How did those guards at the door let people in?
Thinking about it, the man in the armed uniform still scolded: "All lay down their weapons!" It's too dangerous to point a weapon at our guests! ”
"Lady Silver Fox, why are you here?"
"I live here!"
Pretending to be confused, the silver fox glanced around and said coldly: "Derek, you even want to arrest me?" ”
"How come, you are a guest of Gotham, a very distinguished guest!"
"You're sending so many people to protect me?"
The silver fox was not polite at all, and every word wanted to be slapped in the face of the other party.
The officer named Derek tried to explain: "Ma'am, there is ample evidence that this hotel is hiding a murderous demon clansman, I suspect that those guys are targeting you, and the danger has not been ruled out yet, please stay out of the way until we catch someone, please stay safe!" ”
"I'm safe here, and my personal doctor is here, and I bet none of you combined are his opponents!"
This person is Silver Fox's personal doctor?
Why have you never heard of it before, is it a master from Victoria?
Derek couldn't help but take a second look, the thin and tall man was wearing a mask, and only his lips and chin could be seen, which was very mysterious.
Silver Fox said that I didn't care about your protection at all, but Derek wouldn't challenge her personal doctor for a provocation, such a troublesome fool would have been killed a long time ago.
"You can go back to your room, that's the most grace I can do, please don't embarrass me."
After thinking about it, Derek decided not to provoke the silver fox, even if he couldn't catch the female apprentice in the cake shop, it didn't matter, anyway, it was impossible for a demon guy to make any big waves.
Those demon clansmen who are still hanging around in Gotham City are trying to rescue their compatriots, and doing this within the limits of the tower's laws is something that everyone wants to see.
Even if someone scolds the demon clan behind their backs, even if they are treated unfairly, even if it is like now, they will still compromise, they will think that it is their own fault, and even look at their compatriots with extremely harsh eyes in order to integrate into Gotham.
By the way, one of the councillors was right, it's called converts.
In fact, in the eyes of the Gotham people, these demon clansmen are not even as good as pack beasts.
Derek didn't care about the female apprentice in the slightest.
……
Zhou Jinru has always been observing Derek in the mouth of the silver fox, and this officer is more concerned about whether he will offend the silver fox, as for arresting people, it is only incidental.
He thought in his heart that in such a harsh environment, the Sakaz people were willing to make compromises, which did not conform to their demon title at all.
Is it because of the long-lost destruction of Kazdale, or because the Sakazi desperate for a sense of belonging?
Maybe both.
He couldn't help but think of a young man in Sakaz he had known a long time ago, a talented young man, who gave everything he had for a better life and no longer had to be displaced, but in the end, he still couldn't get the life he deserved.
A powerful Kazdale is incomparably important to the Sakaz people, and it is what they desire.
Zhou Jinru pushed open the door of his room, stretched out his hand and turned on the light, the light instantly spread all over the room, and his movements stopped, because someone used a dinner knife against his waist.
"Why?"
He asked softly.
"Don't talk!"
The young woman's voice trembled with fear, her hands were weak in Zhou Jinru's eyes, and the table knife was even more fragile, unable to even lower the rigid shield even a little.
But he slowly raised his hands to show that he had no ill intentions.
"You, come over slowly, don't make any small movements!"
Zhou Jinru followed what she said and walked into the room.
He finally saw the gangster's face, fear written on his bloodless face, and she held the knife in both hands, the thin edge of which was difficult to even cut through a chop, let alone threaten a strong adult male.
Suddenly, the girl's eyes went dark, and then her wrist ached, and the knife was snatched away, and even she was thrown into the large double bed with a huge force.
The movement in the room attracted the attention of the searchers, but because of their identity, they did not dare to come in and search.
"Sir, what's going on inside?"
Zhou Jinru said flatly: "It's nothing, I accidentally bumped into the table." ”
"In this case, please be careful, call us if you have something."
It wasn't until the person at the door left that Zhou Jinru turned his head to look at the girl hiding on the other side of the double bed.
He grabbed the table knife in his palm, nailed it to the coffee table, and said with a smile: "Miss, this can't kill people, you have to use this." ”
Grabbing his right wrist with his left hand, he pulled out a short knife from his cuff and slapped it next to the knife with a snap.
"Why are you helping me?"
Although the girl was scared, she slowly relaxed when she saw Zhou Jinru acting like this, but there was still a strong guard in her eyes.
"Because you dare not take a knife against them, but dare to point a knife at me."
Hearing this, the girl was ashamed, blushing, pursing her lips, and unable to say anything.
Zhou Jinru sat down and poured himself a glass of water: "What's your name?" ”
"Abigail."
"The female apprentice in the cake shop?"
"Yes."
She seemed to accept her fate, lowered her head, and answered whatever Zhou Jinru asked.
"Are you in a relationship with the hotel concierge?"
Abigail raised his head and denied: "No, I have nothing to do with him, he has taken a fancy to me, I don't want to." ”
"Really?"
"Really."
Zhou Jinru took a sip and shook his head: "I'll just assume that what you said is true, have you figured out how to get out of this room today?" ”
The girl's face turned pale, and if the man wanted anything, she had no room to struggle at all except to kill herself.
Syllable.
The glass was placed on the coffee table, Zhou Jinru drank the water and exhaled a turbid breath: "Tell me, Sakaz people, how did they fall into such a field today, it's best to tell the truth, don't lie to me." ”
How did he ......
Abigail was surprised by his actions and didn't understand what he was trying to do.
……
The content of the Sakaz girl's narrative is not much different from what the Silver Fox told him, the only difference is that the Silver Fox thinks that the Sakaz people are making too much noise, causing the dissatisfaction of the Gotham Council, while the female apprentice's perspective is that the Sakaz people are generally treated differently and discriminated against, they are running for their own rights, but they do not expect that what awaits them is an incredible iron fist and persecution.
Zhou Jinru said casually: "If you were given a choice, would you continue to stay in this city, or leave here?" ”
Get out of here?
The Sakaz girl fell silent, as if she was still thinking about how to survive here before the man mentioned it, and there was still a glimmer of hope in her heart, maybe the council could give them justice?
"I don't know."
She replied honestly.
"The standard answer, I think too."
Zhou Jinru stood up, his movements startled the girl, and he thought he was going to do something to her.
The man's expression was calm: "Stay in the room and don't go out, I think there is no safer place than here." ”
