A small shop of about 20 square meters, with fruit at the 'door' and some imported cans and cigarettes on the shelves inside. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 Fastest update access: щщщ.shuhāh А.
The owner of the shop, an Arab man in his thirties, was not nervous at all when he saw two Black Dead men with guns coming in, but greeted them warmly, and asked with some expectation: "Hey, brother, is the great trial over, when will the execution be carried out publicly, and where?"
Sunni Muslims in Aleppo are much safer than other ethnic groups, because they belong to the same sect as the Black Death, and as long as they do not resist the orders of the Black Death, their lives are basically not in danger, and they can even go to the Black Death's religious court to complain if they encounter injustice.
Although the Black Death has claimed to be a state, the state institutions have not yet been formed, and the means of administering the occupied territories still rely on bullets and religious courts, and any disputes must be judged according to the Islamic law.
Correspondingly, the armed chiefs in each of the occupied territories automatically assumed the functions of judges and magistrates.
In relatively stable areas, religious courts are held regularly, and although the trial procedures are simple and crude, they can at least give the people an impression of fairness and honesty compared to some of the best political powers.
In Aleppo, the recent religious courts have largely tried apostate and prisoners.
There were often only three types of verdicts handed down by the Inquisition, acquittal, 'corpary', and execution on the spot.
Every time a religious court is held, it will be accompanied by bloody scenes of violence, so some people with special habits will do everything possible to inquire about the day of the trial, and then go to the crowd of onlookers, while chanting the greatness of Allah, watching the bloody heads being cut off, so as to get great 'spirit' satisfaction.
Obviously, the shopkeeper is such a person.
White was accustomed to this kind of thing, and casually picked up a pack of camel brand cigarettes and said, "If you want to see the excitement of the East End, you can see the most tragic scene." Or, I'll put a gas canister on your car, and you can drive to the checkpoint of the political army, and you can cause annoyance yourself. ”
The shopkeeper shrank his neck and said with a dry smile: "That's not to see the excitement, that's to look for death." ”
Redon had already selected seven or eight cans of 'meat', took another bottle of water, and asked, "How much?"
The shopkeeper glanced at it and said, "Counting this pack of cigarettes, it's a total of one hundred and fifty dollars." ”
"What, you're robbing + robbing, one hundred and fifty dollars can buy a thirteen-year-old virgin!" White was furious, and his right hand suddenly pressed on the handle of the gun.
"In extraordinary times, this is the price. I'm still cheap, and if I go further in, it'll cost at least two hundred dollars. Not afraid of White's gun at all, the shopkeeper raised his hand across the street and said, "Or you can go and ask Captain Cassin, who is my younger brother and is in charge of this block." ”
Redon had observed when he parked his car, and there was a hotel across the street, which had now been turned into a barracks.
At the corner of the street, there was a checkpoint where seven or eight Black Dead men were in charge of checking passing vehicles and pedestrians, and machine guns were mounted on the roof of the inn, apparently a Black Death stronghold.
No wonder the store can open a store in such a good location, no wonder he is not afraid of Redon and White at all, it turns out that he has something to rely on.
"The price should be fair. Lei Dong smiled slightly, took three more cans, and handed over two hundred-dollar bills + bills at the same time, and asked, "Have you found any suspicious people recently?"
The shopkeeper took the banknote + bill and checked it, whistled excitedly, and asked, "What news do you want to hear?" ”
White was a little dazed, staring at Lei Dong's hand, he really couldn't understand, before leaving, Mahdi had clearly searched every corner of Lei Dong's clothes, there were only a few dollars, where did these dollars come from?
"Ten dollars a question for a reasonable price. Lei Dong flipped his wrist, and actually took out a thick stack of dollar bills at once, 'pulled' out one of them and put it on the table, and said with a smile: "This is the reward for ten questions, you can answer my first question first." ”
"Yes, there are many, which one do you want to ask?" the shopkeeper flexed a finger, but his eyes were greedily staring at the banknote + ticket in Lei Dong's hand.
Lei Dong laughed, put away the hundred dollars on the table, and at the same time took out a can from the shopping bag and put it down, and said: "You are too cunning, I won't ask questions, this can should be the reward for the question just now." White, let's go. ”
The business in hand is going to be ruined, and the store is so anxious that I really regret that I didn't say a hundred dollars just now.
"Wait, I really have important news. Suddenly, the shopkeeper went out and called out to Lei Dong and White, who had already walked to the 'door', and said: "There is a camera installed in my store, and there was a suspicious customer yesterday, and I suspect that he may be a 'treacher' of the political army." A hundred dollars, if you need it, I can show you what he looks like. ”
Lei Dong turned back: "Where?"
The shopkeeper stretched out his right hand: "Give the money first." ”
Lei Dong didn't hesitate to put his hand into his pocket, and this time he grabbed a bigger stack of banknotes + tickets, which cost no less than 20,000 US dollars just by visual inspection.
Lei Dong 'draws' one of the 100 dollar bills, slapped it in the shopkeeper's hand, and said, "Let's talk about it." ”
"Please wait. The shopkeeper's voice trembled, and he looked left and right, and suddenly walked to the 'door' of the store and closed the iron 'door'.
White frowned, and the muzzle of the gun was immediately aimed at the store: "What are you doing?"
"Don't be nervous, I'm just showing you the video. The shopkeeper smiled with a smile on his face, retreated to the back of the shelves step by step, opened a small 'door', and a secret room with an area of less than five square meters appeared behind, in which a computer was placed, and the display screen showed the real-time monitoring screen of the small store and the opposite street.
White breathed a sigh of relief and put the gun down.
"You have guns, I don't have anything, what are you afraid of?" The shopkeeper walked into the secret room, tapped a few times on the keyboard, called up a video, pointed to a middle-aged man who came in to buy something, and said: "Look closely at his appearance, and what he is going to do next, do you think it is suspicious?"
Redon and White walked in, staring at the screen.
I saw the middle-aged man and the shopkeeper chatting about something, circling the shelves twice, picking up everything and looking at it, but buying nothing.
Half a minute later, the middle-aged man seemed to be dissatisfied with the goods here, shook his head and left.
White frowned, "What's so strange about that?"
"You can play it in slow motion and you can see it clearly. "The store '' the computer, played it at a quarter-rate rate, and after a few seconds, it found an anomaly.
The man obviously picked up two packs of cigarettes, but when he put them down, there was one pack, and the other pack was quickly stuffed into his clothes under the cover of his body.
"A thief?" White was not interested.
"Also, he has a gun hidden under his clothes. The store moved out of the front of the display, pretending to be very casual, and said as he walked towards the 'door': "Look at it casually, I'll get you a drink, it's free!"
When he was about to reach the 'door', the shopkeeper suddenly sped up and reached out to 'touch' the left side of the 'door'.
Suddenly, a hand grabbed the shopkeeper's arm, and Lei Dong walked out with a 'pale' and 'gloomy' face: "We don't drink drinks. ”
"Do you 'smoke' cigarettes?" the shopkeeper shook and barely managed to squeeze out a smile.
"We don't 'smoke' either. Lei Dong smiled, and the strength of his right hand suddenly tripled, and the bones in the shopkeeper's wrist immediately creaked.
The shopkeeper trembled in pain: "You guys...... What are you going to do, I'm Captain Cassin's brother?"
White was also puzzled, and walked out and asked, "What's wrong with him?"
Redonunu mouthed and said to an inconspicuous pull ring at the entrance of the 'door': "Pull it." ”
White reached out suspiciously, grabbed the pull ring, and pulled it back.
"Bang Dang!" The ceiling 'flower' board in the secret room suddenly fell, and nearly a thousand catties of prefabricated boards smashed the computers, tables and chairs in the secret room in just one click.
If Redon and White were still in the secret room just now, they would have turned into 'meat' pies at this moment!
"You want to kill for money?" White was furious, and pointed a gun at the store's brain.
"You can't shoot, or Cassin will come and kill you right away!" "Yin' plotted to defeat 'Lu', but the shopkeeper let it go and said, "Let me go, I'll escort you to the East End, otherwise we will all die!"
"Actually, he didn't just want to grab money, he started to suspect us as soon as we came in. Redon pressed White's gun and imitated the shopkeeper's original words, "Is the trial over, where and where is the execution carried out?"
White 'excited' Lingling fought a cold war, this store opened a grocery store under the nose of the Black Death, his own brother was still the captain of the Black Death, how could he not know when the Great Trial would begin?
Damn, I've been a Black Dead for a few months, so why doesn't I seem to know as much about them as Lei Dong?
Seeing White's annoyed look, the shopkeeper became even more proud, and threatened: "I know that you were sent by the political army to find out the news, and you definitely don't want to be caught, right? Let me tell you that the executioner John has come to Aleppo, and once he is caught, he will definitely cut off your heads." If you let me go, I promise not to reveal your secrets, otherwise I will ......"
Lei Dong raised his eyebrows: "Executioner John really came to Aleppo?"
The shopkeeper continued to threaten: "That's still fake, tomorrow he will behead the hostages in front of the Great Castle, and he must personally '' the knife!"
"A few questions for you. Lei Dong smiled and put a hand on the shopkeeper's shoulder and asked, "Are there any Chinese among the beheaders?"
"Chinese?" the shopkeeper shook his head and said, "I don't know, but there should be a Japanese reporter." ”
Redon nodded and continued, "Do you know of a man from Tekrit, Iraq, who is in his forties and has a disability in his left ear, named Abdullah Karim?"
"I don't know. The shopkeeper was not satisfied and said, "You're asking too much, a hundred dollars for a question." ”
"I don't want to ask any more. Lei Dong+ suddenly grabbed the throat of the shopkeeper, his palm gradually closed, pointed to the secret room with a cruel smile, and said: "White, 'get' him to death, as long as there is no sound, we can still swagger out." ”
The "Woo ......" shopkeeper was instantly enveloped in fear, unable to open his mouth, but blinking desperately.
"What, you still have something to say?" Lei Dong smiled and leaned over his ear, loosening his fingers a little.
"Don't kill me, I'll give you money, I have 10,000 dollars!" the shopkeeper pleaded with a pleading face, and desperately raised his hand to a chair: "In...... Down there, it's all ...... All for you. ”
"Thank you for funding our event. Lei Dong smiled, and suddenly his five fingers were closed.
"Click!" the shopkeeper's neck snapped immediately.
