Chapter 40: Blood Prison
When he heard his men say that there was a young man outside who claimed to be a student of the academy and wanted to see him, Shenbo's heart skipped a beat. He subconsciously remembered the legendary master who accompanied Wen Jijiu upstairs the night before. His undisguised majestic aura
While making myself alert, I didn't even dare to have the thought of resistance. Is the perfection of the outer scene so far away from the inner scene?
He is already fifty years old. He doesn't know if he will end up doing outdoor scenes like Wen Jijiu.
But if it was Mr. Big who came, he wouldn't wait outside for notification.
The detective stroked his long gray beard, straightened his official uniform, and said in a serious tone, "Please come in."
The ones who came were Zhao Yushu and Moer.
The detective looked at Zhao Yushu, who was frowning. He was one of the few people in Dongdu who was qualified to know the appearance of the disciples under the old man in Tianji Pavilion, but he was sure that this person was definitely not among the five gentlemen.
And if it was an ordinary academy disciple, how could he dare to visit me directly in the middle of the night?
But the detective was still a detective after all, and he only needed to think about it and think of a person: "Zhao Yushu?"
"It is the younger generation"
It turned out to be him, the old man’s sixth disciple. Did that man actually hand the matter over to him?
The detective asked his men to serve tea and said, "Mr. Liu, you are here so late at night. I wonder if you have any advice for me."
Zhao Yushu bowed and said, "I'm sorry to bother you so late at night, but I can't sleep until I figure out one thing."
The detective raised his hand and said, "I regard the Pavilion Master as my teacher. Mr. Six, there is no need to be polite. We can just talk as equals. You can say whatever you want."
Zhao Yushu nodded and said, "During the day, I and several detectives under your command found a village northwest of Dongdu."
It turned out to be him. Today, three detectives sent out reported that they had found a village with problems. A scholar from the academy followed them and sent them back to report the news.
The sharp detective immediately noticed something and rushed over with his men. As expected, the detective Zhou Zhun who stayed there was waiting with three men, and the mysterious academy master had disappeared.
I guessed for a long time and thought that the most likely person was Mr. Four who always smiles. He is also good and easier to deal with than Mr. Big.
After a late night of inhumane interrogation, the detective found out a lot of things and felt that he could find someone to talk to properly. As for those men who claimed to be members of the Shen family, they had no deterrent effect on the detective. I worked so hard to find the son for Old Shen, let alone a few servants whose authenticity was hard to tell. Even if you were a relative of Old Shen, I would beat you up.
I had just sorted out my thoughts and came back to organize the files and drink some tea. Before I even left the house, Mr. Six from the academy came to my door. Was this such a coincidence?
Zhao Yushu was really lucky. He had never thought it would be such a coincidence, but he knew that the detective would have news, it was just a matter of sooner or later.
This gave the detective the illusion that Zhao Yushu knew everything.
Now Zhao Yushu had a rough idea of where Shen Laoqi was. Logically speaking, if he just had to be a little more shameless, the mission would be over. But it was obvious that the eldest brother didn't just want to know where he was. In fact, the eldest brother himself already knew where he was.
Therefore, my next move will determine whether I want to enter the legendary Tianji Pavilion.
Of course I thought that a big tree provides shade.
So Zhao Yushu wanted to continue the mission, so he found the master
"I think the detective already knows that the village is the Shen family's secret agent. I am not interested in why the Shen family set up a secret agent outside the city. What I want to know is why the Shen family's secret agent dared to kidnap the young master of the Shen family."
The detective took a sip of tea and said, "What a coincidence. I am the opposite of Mr. Liu. I don't care about the Shen family's troubles. Instead, I am very concerned about why he has set up a secret stake outside the city."
Zhao Yushu leaned forward and said, "I guess Master Shenpo got the answer he wanted?"
"Well, if you go to the Dongdu prison, you can always get something out of it."
"He lost his son, and a secret agent was dug out for no apparent reason. Boss Shen is really unlucky this year." Haha, I was wondering how it was so easy to find that small village. You old foxes, Boss Shen must be bleeding.
The detective raised his eyebrows and asked, "What did you think of, Mr. Liu?"
Zhao Yushu grinned: "Someone has a good idea. If everything goes well, Huibao Dashang will bleed a lot to get his son back. If things don't go well, they can leave a way to give Boss Shen a small blow. It's a sure win."
The detective laughed loudly: "This clue is in my hands now. As long as I want, the three people in the dungeon will disappear completely, and no one will be able to find any clues. Or, they will appear directly in the government office of Dongdu, or even Xijing."
Zhao Yushu also smiled: "This is a good deal. I think Boss Shen is willing to pay a good price."
The detective suddenly said, "But if you do this, some people will be unhappy."
Forget it, I am really young. These big shots are all very cunning. I thought I could bully them and force them to do me a favor. But it turns out that they have been waiting here with their chips in hand for me to come so that they can sell them for a good price.
Yun Gu gave him a girl without saying anything. The sick scholar told him where Shen Laoqi was. The detective caught a small braid of Lao Shen by chance and immediately prepared to sell it.
"Does the detective know her?" Zhao Yushu pointed at Mo'er.
The detective thought about it and shook his head. Mo'er usually helped Yun Gu deal with the ghost town, and there was someone else who dealt with the government.
"Mrs. Yun's personal maid, Mo'er"
The detective suddenly realized
"Moer and I just came back from the ghost town and had a great chat."
The hand holding the teacup shook slightly unconsciously: "In this case, I should also express my attitude. Words are not enough, seeing is believing. Mr. Liu, Miss Moer, follow me."
The detective stood up first, followed by Zhao Yushu and the other two. There were detectives in front holding torches to illuminate the way.
After leaving the Dongdu government office, a black stone building appeared in front of us not far away.
The most terrifying place in the entire Dongdu, Dongdu Blood Prison
Only serious criminals are held here, and once you go in, unless you have a powerful background, it will take at least a few layers of skin to get out.
Most people came out wrapped in straw mats.
"Mr. Six, please."
Well, this is the first time in my two lives that I've been in jail. No, I've been in jail since I first arrived. Well, it's like going home, although it's not the same jail.
Zhao Yushu walked in with his head held high. Hmm, familiar stench, familiar screams, familiar smell of blood. This damn feudal society...
The detective looked at Zhao Yushu, who was looking around and sniffing around, and felt a little panicked for no apparent reason. Is there another lunatic in the Tianji Pavilion?
Under the dim firelight, they walked down two floors and stood in front of a steel cell. The jailer quickly opened the cell door. The detective waved his hand, and all the jailers and guards retreated silently.
On three wooden racks, three bloody bodies were hung high up, with only unconscious groans.
The detective walked forward and touched one of the men. The man immediately began to tremble as if he had been electrocuted. A few seconds later, a scream echoed throughout the cell.
Zhao Yushu felt a chill in his heart, and then he felt Moer subconsciously move closer to him.
"Tell me what you know again," the detective said lightly, then turned and left the cell. "I am tired of listening to you, so I will not accompany you, Mr. Liu. You can come up directly after you finish listening."
Zhao Yushu nodded silently, took a step forward, and waited for the screams to stop. The man shook his head unconsciously.
"My name is Shen Qishisan..."
