In the dark night, under the light, Kou Beiyue silently stared at the ordinary-looking young man holding a cigarette and wearing black-rimmed glasses. For about ten seconds, he said:
"No wonder Madoka admires you so much. She is sensitive, guarded and strong. It is difficult for ordinary official practitioners to get close to her, but she trusts you alone and makes friends with you. It is not unreasonable. From now on, um, we will be friends from now on."
Young people are often pretentious and thin-skinned. They feel ashamed and embarrassed when expressing kindness.
After finishing speaking, seeing Zhang Yuanqing silent and thinking alone, Kou Beiyue felt that his self-esteem was hit and asked:
"Aren't you happy being friends with a master like me?"
Zhang Yuanqing came back to his senses and instinctively said: "Ah, right."
Then he said suspiciously: "Well, what did you just say? I didn't hear clearly."
Kou Beiyue's face turned blue and white, he snorted angrily and turned his head to the side.
Inexplicably, Zhang Yuanqing took a deep breath and said:
"I'm thinking about the action plan. Since I have decided to intervene in this matter, analysis and deployment are essential. Rushing into the Tongque Tower on a whim is the stupidest thing to do, and it will put us in danger."
Just go straight to the Tongque Tower. This sentence got stuck in Kou Beiyue's throat. He tried hard to swallow it and said:
"Why? According to my analysis, that Lord Wu should be an ordinary person, no. You don't need to be so cautious when dealing with ordinary people."
Master Wu is definitely not. Zhang Yuanqing agrees with this. His moral value cannot withstand such a torment.
For deacons like Chi Yue'an, if they spend money from time to time to vent their dark side, just like spending their wages, if they plan carefully, there will be no problems.
But opening such a place for power and sex trading, training a team to engage in pyramid schemes, fraud, forcing girls into prostitution, etc. No one's moral value can withstand such squandering.
Zhang Yuanqing glanced at his phone, estimated the arrival time of the online taxi, and explained:
"Chi Yue'an knows you, right? The grievances between you and him all stem from Tongque Tower. After encountering your assassination, he will definitely notify Tongque Tower to strengthen security forces, and even send troops to station to protect Lord Wu.
"
Kou Beiyue frowned: "What you said makes sense."
"But don't worry too much. You are in the evil profession, you are not an official, and you are alone. In Chi Yue'an's view, you are at most a difficult enemy. I guess his approach is to surround himself with others, or with Copper.
Quelou has set up an ambush, waiting for you to fall into the trap. As for the official investigation, he will not consider it, because this matter involves too many powerful people, and these people can suppress the matter." Zhang Yuanqing's analysis was clear and logical.
Kou Beiyue listened, gradually became convinced, and completely followed the other person's train of thought: "Then what should we do?"
How to do it?
Zhang Yuanqing had two ideas. The first idea was to sneak into the Tongque Tower, search for evidence, and then report it to Fu Qingyang, who would then report it to the elders.
In this way, the official will naturally deal with Chi Yue'an, but the prerequisite is that evidence against Chi Yue'an can be found.
There is another hidden danger. Chi Yue'an is a deacon. The deacon is the person in charge of District 1, and he is backed by the Zhu family. In addition, he is a consumer of Tongque Tower, not the culprit.
Such a crime might not kill him.
As for the killing of Kou Yusi, Kou Beiyue, as an evil professional, certainly cannot come forward to testify. Although the Five Elements Alliance has ways to make people tell the truth, in the Five Elements Alliance's system, relying only on props to investigate cases is not in line with the process. There must be something
Supported by other evidence.
This provides Chi Yue'an and the forces behind him with an opportunity to argue. Just like a lawsuit, the process is always complicated and difficult, but it is also indispensable.
The second idea is very simple, drive the tiger away and devour the wolf.
Push the case of Tongque Tower to the Demon Eye King, and let the evil people punish the evil people.
This is the lowest risk method and is very feasible, but it has a fatal problem - it cannot be controlled.
Zhang Yuanqing remembers that the Demon Eye King caused two murders in Songhai, killing nearly 20 people and deducting a lot of moral points. It should calm down a little in the near future.
In the Tongque Tower incident, there were too many damn people. With the character of the Demon Eye King, he would never let these people go, but he was not a fool and would also consider situations where his moral value was insufficient.
A reasonable approach is to keep a small notebook first, and then take action after accumulating enough moral points.
But Zhang Yuanqing couldn't afford to wait. The interrogation of Kong Liangping tonight meant that the case was destined to be resolved quickly. Once Chi Yue'an and other powerful people knew about Kong Liangping's death, they would definitely make corresponding arrangements and wipe their butts clean.
When it comes to intrigues, Zhang Yuanqing is very self-aware and will definitely not be able to defeat those old fritters.
In addition, there is another drawback to the strategy of driving away tigers and devouring wolves. Who knows when the Demon Eye King will have accumulated enough moral points, and the elders of the Songhai branch will take action in the near future.
If the Demon Eye King suffers a big loss and chooses to withdraw from Songhai, it will be all in vain.
"Go to the Tongque Tower first to get some information." Zhang Yuanqing made a safe decision.
Kou Beiyue looked at him strangely: "So, what's the difference between this and what I thought, directly killing Tongque Tower?"
Zhang Yuanqing said disdainfully:
"The difference is that before you make this decision, you don't think about anything. But the wise man has already thought about a Machiavellian drama before making a decision."
Kou Beiyue was unconvinced: "So, there is still no difference."
Zhang Yuanqing's mouth twitched: "Okay, don't worry about these details. The car is coming soon. When it reaches its destination, follow my instructions."
In order to prevent this guy from making a fuss, Zhang Yuanqing changed the subject:
"How did you and Madoka know each other?"
Kou Beiyue recalled:
"She and I met in a multiplayer dungeon. At that time, I was accidentally attacked by a lawful profession and almost died. It was Madoka who saved me. Later, we exchanged contact information, and she felt
I am a good young talent, so I was brought into Master Wuhen’s team for training.”
In fact, he was temporarily soft-hearted and did not make up his mind to kill. He had just become a bewitching demon at that time and had a mental disorder in killing people, but Kou Beiyue wanted to save face and did not want to admit it.
"I always thought you were Xiao Yuan's son. Well, does Xiao Yuan have a husband or a boyfriend?" Zhang Yuanqing asked casually.
When Kou Beiyue heard this, his face suddenly became wary: "What do you want to do?"
Think about it, Zhang Yuanqing was joking in his heart, and said openly:
"Madoka is beautiful and sexy. Isn't it normal to wonder if she has a spouse? Of course, it's just pure curiosity."
"I don't know, I haven't seen it anyway." Kou Beiyue looked arrogant and sneered: "There are a few men in the world who can match Xiao Yuan."
Do you have a deep impression on Xiao Yuan? Zhang Yuanqing said "Oh" and stopped talking.
But Kou Beiyue couldn't stop and asked:
"You know Yuanshi Tianzun, right? I heard that boy is a genius who has emerged recently. He killed Li Xianzong, Bishop Bing. Who is stronger between you and him?"
Zhang Yuanqing did not hesitate: "In front of him, I can only kneel down and sing the song of conquest."
Kou Beiyue said blankly: "So powerful? It shouldn't be. Li Xianzong is about the same as me. You are a little better than me. Logically speaking, you and Yuanshi Tianzun will not be much different."
Are you similar to Li Xianzong? Zhang Yuanqing couldn't help but look at Kou Beiyue and thought to himself, this kid doesn't look like he can brag. Is he so strong? Well, he seems to be a level 3 bewitching demon.
No wonder he was spotted by the Demon Eye King.
At this time, a bright white car slowed down slowly and stopped beside the two people. The online car-hailing car arrived.
Half an hour later, the white car arrived at Xinyuan Road and parked a hundred meters away from No. 38.
Zhang Yuanqing paid the fare and got off the bus with Kou Beiyue.
He came to the roadside, sat cross-legged under a green plant, summoned the bloodthirsty blade, and said:
"I'm going in, please take care of my body, little brother, don't stab me in the back."
This was the plan that was agreed upon in the car. First, his spirit body would leave his body and enter the Tongque Tower to collect information, and then decide what to do next based on the actual situation.
If the spirit body leaves the body, the physical body becomes fish and meat that can be slaughtered by others.
Kou Beiyue rolled his eyes.
What he couldn't see was that at his feet, a round and cute baby with sparse fetal hair raised its head and looked at him.
Xiao Doubi is another insurance policy for Zhang Yuanqing. Although he thinks that Kou Beiyue will not stab him in the back, he must be on guard against others.
At the critical moment, Xiaodoubi can delay time for him.
"We have to refine a Yin corpse as soon as possible, so that next time the spirit body leaves the body, there will be strong enough bodyguards around." Zhang Yuanqing thought in his heart, and the spirit body floated out from the physical body.
He floated to the same height as the green plants, looked down at the body sitting cross-legged under the tree, and Kou Beiyue, who was looking around cautiously, withdrew his gaze, wrapped the bloodthirsty blade, and floated into the distance.
Tongque Tower is built next to the river in a remote location. It consists of two residential buildings, one with five floors and the other with two floors, surrounded by a wall with a pulse grid.
Judging from the appearance of the building alone, it looks ordinary, even a little shabby.
Zhang Yuanqing's spirit body floated over the wall and saw several patrol teams. They were wearing security uniforms and formed a team of two, carrying short sticks in their hands and equipped with walkie-talkies on their chests.
Looks well-trained and very professional.
Zhang Yuanqing turned into a gust of dark wind and escaped into the five-story building on the left. The first floor of this building was a security room, with surveillance screens filling the large room.
Iron gates are installed on each floor, and you need to swipe the access control to enter or exit. The women living inside are like birds trapped in a cage, with no hope and no freedom.
The second floor is the office area, with desks placed there. It is empty and dark at the moment.
Starting from the third floor and going all the way to the fifth floor are the women's dormitories, where the organization sells silver.
Each bedroom here is large, similar to a large hotel suite, with a pink decoration style, a large round soft bed, a bronze bathtub beside the bed, and various adult products placed in glass cabinets.
Zhang Yuanqing plans to first obtain information from the woman who knows Tongque Tower, which is far more detailed than the information obtained from the murderer.
His spirit body floated through room after room, seeing women whose bodies sank into soft beds one after another, and guests who indulged in lust and indulged in pleasure one after another.
The melodious sound is nauseating.
How many of them were forced? They were deceived for various reasons, became a tool for the guests to vent their desires, and were forced to meet different men one after another.
Kou Beiyue's sister was also here back then, and encountered what they were experiencing. She tried her best to escape, but was brutally murdered.
Finally, Zhang Yuanqing stopped in a suite. There was a round table beside the bay window. Sitting at the table was a paunchy man with a cigarette between his fingertips.
In the bathroom next to the door, there was a sound of water running, and a woman was taking a shower.
It was just him. Zhang Yuanqing sighed softly, and the spirit body "collided" into the man's body, completing the possession.
After searching for a long time, he finally found a man and woman who were not doing anything. He really couldn't convince himself to possess those men who were venting their desires.
Zhang Yuanqing put away the fallen bloodthirsty blade, put out his cigarette in the ashtray, picked up the mobile phone on the table, unlocked it with face recognition, and roughly figured out the man's identity through the chat software.
This middle-aged man is an executive of a government-owned enterprise, a frequent visitor to Tongque Tower, and a friend of Master Wu. However, there are very few chats between the two, which are all polite words, and there is no obvious evidence.
At this time, the sound of water in the bathroom stopped, and a woman wrapped in a bath towel opened the glass door and came out.
She is about 25 years old, has short hair, a slim figure, and extremely delicate facial features.
"My dear, I've washed it. You go and wash it." A smile appeared on her delicate face.
Zhang Yuanqing sat on the chair without moving. He glanced at her and said, "Come and sit."
The woman didn't think so much, so she sat down across from her, picked up the cigarette case on the table, and lit one for herself.
At this time, she saw the guest sitting across from him pull out a cold willow blade from the bottom of the table and stab it into the table.
"Cough cough cough"
The woman was caught off guard and startled. A puff of cigarette smoke stuck in her throat. Tears flowed from her cough, and her face turned red.
Zhang Yuanqing's eyes were cold: "I ask, you answer, if you dare to lie to me, dare to talk nonsense, dare to call for help, I will kill you!"
This was a helpless move. With his body and identity, it was simply impossible for a woman to tell the story and evidence of Lord Wu's crimes.
Night Travel God also has no manipulation skills such as bewitchment.
The simplest and most efficient way is violence.
The woman glanced at Liu Ren cautiously. Although she was unclear about the situation, she still nodded cooperatively.
Zhang Yuanqing asked: "What is your name and how many years have you been here?"
"Cao, Cao Jing, don't you know, I have been working here for five years and came here when I was 20 years old," the woman said.
"How did you get in?"
“I came in after seeing job postings online.”
"I guess you got here by being tricked."
The woman was silent for a moment and nodded:
"You lied to me and said you were working as a shopping guide, but after you joined the job, you were brought here, and your job became eating, drinking and sleeping with your customers."
Zhang Yuanqing said coldly: "Go on, if you don't want me to ask a question, you can answer it. I don't have much patience."
With that said, he pulled out the willow blade.
The woman's face turned pale with fright, and she said cautiously:
"I didn't want to do it at first, so Lord Wu had people beat me, rape me, put me in a solitary room, confiscated my cell phone, and deprived me of food and drink.
"I couldn't stand it anymore, so I gave in. From then on, I had to sleep with the guests every day. Occasionally I would be taken out to drink wine and sleep with other men like prostitutes. No, we are not even as good as prostitutes because we have no money.
"The sisters in the building told me that they were all like this and had been beaten. In comparison, I was quite lucky. Some women were forced to sell drugs and lost their fertility. Some women escaped after several times.
He disappeared, hehe, I hope he escaped home.
"In order to prevent us from escaping, Lord Wu also brought over some of the family members and arranged jobs for them, including cleaning and security.
"He also promoted obedient women to supervisors to set an example for us. Let them manage all of us, with salary and benefits. Many sisters are very envious."
Envy Zhang Yuanqing couldn't help but take a deep breath to calm down.
Cao Jing said a lot, looked at the unfamiliar guests cautiously, and said:
"What else do you want to know?"
Zhang Yuanqing said expressionlessly: "Tell me something important, such as the evidence of Mr. Wu's crime."
Cao Jing thought for a while and said:
"He installed a lot of surveillance cameras in the building to take videos of us having sex with guests. In addition to threatening us with the videos, he also threatened the guests who came to play. Those guests."
She secretly glanced at Zhang Yuanqing's face and said, "You know."
In the video, Zhang Yuanqing said: "Is there any more?"
"I heard that Master Wu also has an account book, and all the guests who interact with him are recorded in the book. Well, I don't know whether it is true or not. I heard it from the supervisor. The supervisor is Lord Wu's young wife and gave birth to his children.
In the beginning, he was just like us, sleeping with his guests." Cao Jing said in a clear tone:
"In addition to Tongque Tower, Wu Ye also has many such shops outside, including hair salons, nightclubs, etc. But this is the most high-end and secretive one, and the customers who come here are all well-known people.
"The stores he has outside were all acquired through thugs and black and white relationships without spending any money. It is said that there are more than a thousand stores."
She was very confused. The guest opposite should know these things better than she did.
The guest opposite lit a cigarette without smoking, and was lost in thought.
The cigarette burned out quickly, and Cao Jing said she had nothing to say. She told everything she knew, including bits and pieces, including some young women who had been given unsightly tattoos by Lord Wu.
There was a sadistic customer who beat and abused the women in the building, and several of them were admitted to the intensive care unit.
"That irritable guest is very tall, has short hair, and likes to wear white shirts."
Zhang Yuanqing briefly described Chi Yue'an's appearance.
"That's him, he's a devil, I, I once served him." Cao Jing seemed to recall the unbearable memory and shuddered.
"I understand, thank you for your cooperation."
Zhang Yuanqing waved his knife and chopped the woman unconscious.
