Lin Jue asked a few more tentative questions, but Zhenzhen's answers did not satisfy Lin Jue. Lin Jue finally determined that Zhenzhen and Ai'ai did not know the specific inside story, and it was useless to ask further questions.
"Brother Xian, it seems that we can't find out anything. We can only go and find out personally." Lin Jue said to Bai Bing.
Bai Bing nodded and said, "You'll know when you find them."
Lin Jue nodded in agreement, stood up, reached out and took out a roll of linen rope from his arms and walked towards Zhenzhen. Zhenzhen was so frightened that she trembled and said in a trembling voice: "Spare... spare your life, I have told you everything I know, spare my life."
.”
Lin Jue smiled and said: "Don't worry, this matter has nothing to do with you. I said I won't kill you. We are going to find Chu Xiangxiang and Gu Panpan now, but to be careful, we have to tie you two up to prevent you from causing trouble.
Will get up. Do you understand what I mean?"
Zhenzhen nodded hurriedly and said: "I understand, but please tie it looser so that we can suffer less. We will never resist, and we will never make a fuss."
Lin Jue smiled and nodded. He tied Zhenzhen and Ai'ai's hands and feet behind their backs, stuffed their mouths with cloth, lifted the two of them onto the bed, and tied them to the bed with cloth strips. Then he put down the curtain, turned around and blew it out.
The lights were on. The two of them were not in a hurry to go out and sat in silence for a while. When they heard the sound of the third watch outside, Lin Jue made a gesture and gently opened the door to Bai Bing and came out.
It's late at night, and the sound of people outside has died down. There is no one in the corridor on the second floor, and a red light is waving at the door of every room. At this moment, pairs of wild mandarin ducks have already gone back to their rooms to be happy. There is also a door downstairs.
Already the sound of people is lonely.
"Let's go." Lin Jue said softly.
"Where to find it?" Bai Bing whispered.
"The east end of the third floor is where Chu Xiangxiang lives. I've been there." Lin Jue pointed in the direction.
Bai Bing curled his lips and said: "It seems that the young master is very familiar with the road."
Lin Jue smiled and said softly: "Don't get me wrong, I just came here, but there is nothing else. There is no need to be so sour."
Bai Bing sneered and said, "I'm not sour. Let's go without further ado."
The two of them walked quickly eastward along the corridor and came to the stairs leading to the third floor. They quickly walked up to the third floor. When they were about to step onto the corridor of the third floor, someone suddenly spoke from above.
, startled the two of them.
"Where are you two gentlemen going?"
Lin Jue and Bai Bing looked up and found a woman standing above the stairs. She was wearing black clothes. The light was dim. The woman was in the shadows again. They had not seen her before.
"Go upstairs, where else can we go?" Lin Jue calmly said with a smile.
"Can I ask the girl on the third floor?" the woman asked.
"This...are the two girls Zhenzhen and Ai'ai." Lin Jue said.
"Zhenzhenaiai is on the second floor. You don't have to go to the third floor. There are two rooms at the west end of the second floor." the woman said.
"Ah? Dear brother, it turns out we went to the wrong place. We are so confused." Lin Jue laughed at himself and turned around dejectedly. The woman stared at the two of them, spat, and disappeared into the darkness.
.
Returning to the corridor on the second floor, Lin Jue frowned and said: "It seems that we can't get up. It's very troublesome. There are actually guards."
Bai Bing said softly: "What's so difficult about this? Just don't take the stairs, and the building is not high."
Lin Jue understood what she meant, and the two of them walked back along the original route and stopped at the corner of the secluded corridor on the west end of the second floor. Bai Bing looked up and saw that the corridor above was the corridor on the third floor.
Lin Jue whispered: "Be careful, don't let anyone see you."
Bai Bing nodded and listened to the movement. When he heard that there was no sound around him, he suddenly stepped on the corridor railing, his toes touched the corridor columns, and his body rose up. The next moment, he had disappeared at the top of the corridor outside.
Lin Jue secretly cheered, Bai Bing's Qinggong was not bad, he could fly over the roof and walk over the wall.
Just as he was thinking about it, a cloth belt hung from above, and Bai Bing's voice came from above: "I'll pull you up."
Lin Jue tightened his belt, stood on the railing, and reached out to grab the cloth belt. Bai Bing used hard force on his hands and pulled Lin Jue up like a big lizard with its teeth and claws. Lin Jue climbed onto the railing on the third floor, and with Bai Bing's help
Climb down and enter the three-story corridor.
The two squatted in the shadow under the corridor pillars and listened quietly. After making sure there was nothing unusual, they stood up gently. They looked at the corridor on the third floor, which was more open and elegant. The two walked slowly eastward, and the door of the room next to it was obvious.
are sparser. This shows that these houses are larger and more spacious. The third floor of Wanhua Building must be similar to a private room. The girls living here are also of higher status, and the guests who come must also spend more money.
of.
Going all the way east, I didn't meet anyone idle. The complex suite at the top of the east building was the residence of Chu Xiangxiang and Gu Panpan, who Lin Jue had visited before. When they touched the door, they found floor-to-ceiling windows and carved patterns.
The door was closed, and there was no light inside. Listen carefully, and it was quiet inside.
"I'll go in and take a look." Bai Bing whispered.
Lin Jue nodded and said, "Be careful."
Bai Bing pushed the wooden door gently, but it didn't move at all. He touched under the long window and lifted the grille on the long window, and it opened easily. Then he stood up and rolled into the house quietly. Lin felt nervous.
He was leaning under the railing to look out for the wind. On the corridor in the distance, the light of a lantern was lit, and coquettish voices and rough laughter could be heard. It was a guest coming upstairs. Soon after, the sound of doors and windows closing was heard.
, everything became calm again.
There was a sound of rustling, and Bai Bing jumped out from the window grille again, came to Lin Jue and lay down next to him.
"Are you there?" Lin Jue asked hurriedly.
Bai Bing shook his head and said: "It seems that no one has lived inside for a long time. There is dust everywhere and there is no one at all."
Lin Jue was stunned and frowned: "Don't you want to live here anymore? How could it be? The two of them are the oirans of Wanhua Tower and Qunfang Pavilion. They have always lived in this house at the east end. Where can they move to?"
Bai Bing also frowned and said, "What should I do? You can't just search from room to room."
Lin Jue pondered and shook his head and said: "We need to find someone who knows the inside story. The woman on the third floor has a higher status and lives on the first floor, so she should know. Let's find someone to interrogate."
Bai Bing nodded in agreement, and the two of them got up and walked back to the road. Suddenly, there was a clang of a house door in front of them, and the lights in the house shone out. Lin Jue and Bai Bing hurriedly crouched in the shadow of the corner of the corridor without moving.
A man walked out of the door with his long clothes open and contentedly, and a disheveled woman with messy buns came out from behind.
"Hahaha, my little darling, I feel comfortable taking care of you today. I have to go. I can't stay here for the night. That tigress in my family is not a vegetarian." The man said with a smile.
"Master Lei, please come here often. The slave family is thinking of you every day. Come here and take care of Master Lei and make him comfortable. It is ten thousand times better than the wife at your home." The woman said delicately.
"Hahaha, I must come here often, I must come here often. Come and give me a kiss." The man hugged the woman. The woman was coquettish and reluctant, but she was hugged hard and kissed loudly on the mouth. The man was satisfied.
Stride away.
The woman climbed on the railing and waved with a smile, watching the man go downstairs. When she turned around, she murmured and cursed: "You bitch, I'm so tired of tossing you around. He's not a big guy, but he has a lot of tricks. It's useless."
"
The woman returned to the house, closed the door with a bang, and yawned as she walked inside. Suddenly, she was so frightened that she almost screamed. She saw two more people in the room at some point, looking at her with a smile.
One of them was holding a shiny sharp blade in his hand.
"Ah!" the woman screamed, but she covered her mouth. She was well-informed and knew that if she screamed in this situation, she would lose her life.
"Very good, don't scream. If they start making trouble, I will kill you." Lin Jue said with a smile.
"Two...two uncles, what are you doing? I, Xiao Yanhong, have no grievances with you, but please don't hurt my life. If you want money, I still have dozens of taels of silver here, take it all.
That's right, but I beg for my life." Although the woman was scared, she was still calm.
"Your name is Xiao Yanhong?" Lin Jue smiled and said, "It's a good name. Don't be afraid, we won't kill you, but you have to be obedient and do us a favor."
"Okay, okay, I am obedient, I will be obedient. What do you want me to do?" Xiao Yanhong said hurriedly.
"How come Chu Xiangxiang and Miss Gu Panpan who used to live in the east house no longer live there?" Lin Jue asked in a deep voice.
Xiao Yanhong looked at Lin Jue in shock, shook her head and said, "They no longer live there."
"Then where do they live now?" Lin Jue said.
Xiao Yanhong smacked her lips and shook her head: "I don't know this. I didn't tell me where they live. I haven't seen them for a long time."
Lin Jue smiled and said: "It seems that you don't want to live anymore, so I'll kill you and ask others."
Bai Bingbing snorted and took a step forward. Xiao Yanhong said hurriedly: "I really don't know. I'm new here. How could I know? However, I heard that they are in bad luck now. Otherwise, you can go to the backyard to firewood.
Want to take a look at the room? I heard...it seems that someone is locked up in the woodshed. I don't know if it's them."
"Woodshed?" Lin Jue frowned.
"Yes, you will know when you go there. I don't know who you are, and I don't know Chu Xiangxiang and Gu Panpan. I came from another building and have heard of their names. But I care about myself
It's too late, but I don't like to meddle in other people's business. I just heard that there are people locked up in the woodshed, maybe, maybe not. Don't scare me, I haven't seen you tonight, and neither have you.
If I and you came here for Chu Xiangxiang and Gu Panpan, it wouldn't be appropriate for you to kill me, right?" Xiao Yanhong said softly.
Lin Jue was very surprised. This little Yanhong actually had a fierce spirit that was not afraid of anything. Her speech was also very organized. Her meaning was very clear: Don't scare me, I have told you everything I know, so scare me.
It's no use. I won't tell anyone, just pretend we haven't met tonight.
"Okay, then, excuse me. Miss Yanhong will go and enjoy your dream, and we will go and do things, so as not to offend the river. But the ugly talk is in the head. If you make trouble, don't blame us for being rude. We want to kill you.
But it's very simple." Lin Jue said.
"The lives of people like us are worthless and worthless, and we have to suffer the fate of living. If you kill me, I am grateful to you before it is too late. I hate myself for not having the courage. Don't worry, I just served a bastard.
Damn, I’m exhausted. I’m going to sleep. Other things have nothing to do with me. Please close the door behind you when you go out. By the way, there are two vicious dogs in the backyard, don’t let them bite you.”
Xiao Yanhong yawned and walked directly to the back room and got into bed.
"Hey! This woman is really attractive." Lin Jue thought in shock.
Bai Bing covered his mouth and snickered, and asked softly: "Be tied or not? Killed or not?"
Lin Jue smacked his lips and said: "That's all, it's not necessary. She is such a bachelor, are we not as good as her? Let's go!"
