What Qianyu didn't expect was that the meeting with the little girl in the morning would be the last meeting in their lives. He truthfully told Liao Yunchuan about the unpleasantness that happened in the morning.
Liao Yunchuan's brows furrowed even more tightly, and he still held on to a trace of luck: "Could this little girl just go out to play?"
The guard immediately extinguished this little hope: "According to the gangsters who often stay with her, although she has bad conduct, she has a very regular life schedule. She will definitely go out to beg with them at meal times. She will never
Absent. And she did not show up during dinner this afternoon. Considering the cases that have occurred in recent months, the gangsters speculated that there is a 90% chance that she is missing. "
"Mobilize everyone in the city to search for her! Immediately issue a reward order. Anyone who finds the little girl will be rewarded with 300,000 gold coins! If you want to see her alive, you will see her dead body!" After Liao Yunchuan gave the order, the guards immediately went down to arrange manpower.
Soon, the city residents also learned the news, but their reaction surprised Qianyu - no one planned to find the little girl!
Walking on the street, looking at the hurried pedestrians and busy shops, everyone was immersed in their own things, and no one cared about the little girl's life or death. Qianyu felt a little emotional, these people were too indifferent, a living person's life,
Don't they all care?
The honest monk seemed to have read through Qianyu's thoughts and said softly: "Don't worry about the donor, people are indifferent, just get used to it."
Qianyu really couldn't understand such indifferent people, so he came to the bun shop where he had been in the morning. When the owner of the bun shop saw him, he immediately greeted him: "Sir, we are really destined, haha, do you want two cages of buns?"
"
"If you want, I want three steamed buns and two bowls of wine." The honest monk immediately found a table and sat down. He never treated himself badly while eating this piece.
"Boss, do you know about the disappearance of the little girl?" Qianyu asked.
The boss replied calmly: "I know, that little liar didn't learn well at a young age and learned some sneaky tricks. He is very annoying. It doesn't matter if he disappears or dies."
The boss's words made Qianyu feel very uncomfortable. Thinking of the unpleasantness that happened in the morning, the little girl's behavior was really annoying, and he was very angry at the time. But after hearing the news of the little girl's disappearance, his attitude immediately changed
Although the little girl is hateful, she is still young after all. As long as she is carefully disciplined and taught patiently, she will have a bright future. He was a little unwilling and went to find the gangsters who knew the little girl. These gangsters worked hard for their livelihood every day.
I am worried that my relationship with the little girl is just a casual encounter, no deep feelings. She disappeared, but my life went on as usual.
The life or death of the little girl is uncertain now. Unfortunately, there is no one who cares about her life and death. It is sad! What a shame!
"Donor, don't be sad. Come, drink this bowl of wine and let go of all your worries." The honest monk pushed the bowl in front of Qianyu. Qianyu couldn't take a bite and felt that his heart was blocked. After thinking about it,
In the end, he could only sigh and drink all the wine in the bowl in one gulp, using strong alcohol to numb his heart.
"Donor, you are still young, and there are many things that you may not be able to accept now. But when you reach my age, you will naturally understand. There are countless sad things and injustices in the world, and you are not the only one.
Can you take care of it?" The honest monk became a life mentor and enlightened Qianyu.
"Donor, look at those people begging in the corner on the street. They are poor and miserable. There is an endless stream of pedestrians passing by. They don't even look at them, let alone have the slightest sympathy for them. The world is unfair. Indeed. Donors think this world is for those beggars? No, this world is only for the weak. As long as you are weak, everyone wants to step on you! All you can do is become stronger, become stronger! Only when you can Only when you trample most people under your feet can you truly enjoy fairness."
The words of Honest Monk are very true and hurt Qianyu's heart. Qianyu is still young and full of expectations for the world. All his views are positive. In his eyes, the world has always been what he dreamed of. , the honest monk cruelly shattered his dream, allowing him to see the bloody reality.
Qianyu could only drink to drown his sorrows. Unfortunately, he was not a good drinker and fell drunk on the table after drinking two large bowls.
"It's fine if you get drunk. Nothing will happen to you when you're drunk." The honest monk smiled, then paid the bill, and found an inn behind Qianyu's back. He threw Qianyu on the bed, locked the door, and hurried away. Go to Chunlou...
I don’t know how long he slept, but Qianyu woke up. His head was groggy, and he smelled of alcohol, which was particularly unpleasant. He quickly took a bath and changed into clean clothes. The honest monk didn’t know where he died. , 80% to "relax". He now plans to go to the city lord's palace and ask Liao Yunchuan for a detailed list of missing persons. He plans to inquire one by one. Even if there is no gain, he will at least find some psychological comfort for himself. I tried my best.
Liao Yunchuan strongly agreed with his idea and assigned him a special bodyguard, which he did not need. He liked to be alone. After getting the list, he visited door to door. During the visit, he found some clues.
First of all, the men and women who have disappeared in recent months all live in slums, and their families are not complete. Some are single parents, some have both parents died, and some are orphans. Even after these women disappear, their families are not only sad but unable to find them. they.
Secondly, the missing time of these people is concentrated in the afternoon to evening, and when darkness falls, it is a good opportunity to commit crimes. There are many people in the slums, and every time a case occurs, no clues are left, indicating that the perpetrators are familiar with the slums. Avoid the crowds every time.
"He is familiar with the slums and has a certain level of cultivation..." Qianyu searched for the target in his mind seriously. There are more than 300,000 people in the City of Shadows. This kind of information is equivalent to finding a needle in a haystack. It won't take more than a year and a half to get results. Suddenly, a face flashed in his mind - could it be Zhao Ruxun?
"Why did I think of Zhao Ruxun?" Qianyu was startled by his thoughts. Zhao Ruxun had no motive for killing at all.
Everything that needs to be done has been done, but Qianyu still has no idea. Now he can only wait quietly. Waiting is a very long process. He remembered that he had obtained the Heart of Overcoming Disaster in the City of Ten Thousand Demons, and he could just finish it in his free time. Absorb and refine.
After thinking about it, Qianyu immediately closed the door after returning to the inn, and told the boss that no one was allowed to disturb him during his practice. Sitting cross-legged on the bed, he slowly closed his eyes and put his hands on each other. On his knees, the heart of overcoming disaster appeared in front of his chest, slowly emitting energy. With his breathing, it entered the body bit by bit and turned into the required vitality...
