Although he said that he had made the arrangements in advance, people who knew the inside story would naturally guess that it was the people from Tiandimen who had said hello in advance, and Lin Chong probably intended to use false pretenses to show off.
Sure enough, the four of them arrived in front of a small two-story building called Zhaoyunlou. It was still daytime, and most of the girls here were resting. The madam looked impatient as if someone owed her hundreds of coins.
Lin Chong pulled her aside and whispered a few words, not knowing exactly what he said. When he came back, the madam's attitude changed completely.
It seems that the name Tiandimen is quite useful sometimes. Lin Chong was speechless and realized the joy of building a relationship. With the amulet of Tiandimen as a blessing, everyone on and off Zhaoyun Tower was very happy.
Cooperate.
Even the girls who were woken up from their sleep suppressed the displeasure on their faces and tried their best to answer their questions in detail.
It's just that when the accident happened, most of these girls were busy with their own affairs, no one was at the scene, and the little girls responsible for taking care of them didn't know anything about it.
After asking a lot of questions, Lin Chong was a little troubled: "These women don't seem to have much in common. They don't know each other, they don't have any intersecting social circles, and they don't interact with each other on a regular basis."
What is the reason that causes these girls who have never met each other to be murdered one after another in a similar period of time?
"It can't be said that there are no similarities. Have you noticed that these women have one biggest thing in common?" Dong Xiaowan casually looked at the environment of Zhaoyun Tower.
"What do they have in common?" several other people asked together.
"Some of these abducted girls are very popular and have been here for a long time, but some are just newcomers who have just come in and have no reputation at all."
"Yes, that's why they say they have nothing in common." Yuan Qingfang was confused.
"No, they have something in common. The more famous girls will have their own dedicated girls to take care of them, and newcomers will not have this treatment. But these abducted girls, regardless of whether they are newcomers or not, have dedicated girls to take care of them.
They are not close to the girls who take care of themselves."
Dong Xiaowan pointed to a dressing mirror and continued to add: "If I'm not wrong, except for coming in to wash up and put on makeup in the morning, you rarely enter her room, right?"
She said this to a little girl who brought them here. This little girl was the little girl responsible for taking care of Xia Qing, the owner of this room.
The little girl must be young. She seemed a little embarrassed when she was suddenly asked such a question. She lowered her head and said in a low voice: "Sister Xia Qing doesn't like other people to be too close to her, so I rarely come to this room."
.”
Dong Xiaowan said nothing and turned to look at Lin Chong and Yuan Qingfang: "Let's go to other rooms and have a look." She came from a wealthy family, and her mother was the daughter of a scholar. She had learned a lot of poems and books since she was a child, and she had her own way of thinking.
My own set of methods.
Lin Chong followed her out obediently, and several people looked through all the rooms in Zhaoyun Tower where the incident occurred. The madam stood beside her and complained to them all the time.
"If you don't understand this matter, we don't need to do business. There are still girls who have just come here. There were a few who ran away and ran away secretly the day before yesterday. It's really impossible to live this life.
Sir, you have to make the decision for me."
Lin Chong made her head hurt from the quarrel, so she had to deal with it casually: "We will try our best to find out the cause and effect of the matter, but in the final analysis you still have to go to the government for this kind of matter."
This opened the door for the madam to say: "Oh, do you think I haven't gone to the government? Of course we reported it to the government immediately when such a big thing happened, but the government didn't care at all."
"We went several times but were kicked back. They said I was obstructing official business and would put us in jail if we went back. How dare I go there again?"
This is strange. According to what Liu Xingyan and the others said yesterday, it was because the local government did not receive any report from anyone, so Xinyi Village approached Tiandimen for help.
But what the madam said today was that not only did they look for her, but they also looked for her over and over again because the government refused to deal with the matter.
"This is very interesting. Brother Mao, what do you think this means?" Lin Chong turned to look at Mao Bijiang.
The other party thought for a while: "Perhaps the person behind this matter is more powerful than your friend, so the government is willing to lie to them."
His friend refers to Xinyi Village, and Mao Bijiang probably thought that since they were both traveling in the world, they should all be friends.
Lin Chong was too lazy to dwell on his misunderstanding, but his conclusion was correct. At least the mastermind behind the scenes had a greater deterrent effect on the government than Xinyi Village, so the government chose not to accept these cases.
While they were listening to the madam's nonsense, Dong Xiaowan and Yuan Qingfang had already asked all the people who were kidnapped if there were girls.
As expected, these girls' answers were all very similar. When the accident happened, they were all stymied by various things. In short, no one was at the scene of the crime to witness what happened.
"No wonder they chose to follow the gangsters. It seems that the information that can be obtained here is really limited." Lin Chong was troubled, but he didn't know how they focused on those gangsters. The two seemed to be inseparable.
Close?
"Actually, these women have one thing in common. They are all prostitutes but not their bodies." Yuan Qingfang said what she discovered when she just talked to those little girls.
Dong Xiaowan shook his head: "What they said is unbelievable. They are not close to those girls in the first place. What's more... it's not so easy to do things like show off your skills but not sell your body. There can't be so many singers in this place who are not selling their skills..."
At this point, she paused, with a touch of bitterness in the corner of her mouth: "Actually, I am no different, so what qualifications do I have to say that to them? No matter how nice it sounds, I will still go down this road after all..."
Lin Chong tried to comfort her: "You are different from most of them. You are forced by the situation to have no choice. If you are given a little more time, you will definitely become a great talented woman with your talent."
In fact, you are already an amazing talented woman now, and future generations will think highly of you. Hundreds of years later, many people will still like you and admire you.
Besides, you are different from them, you are much more beautiful than them, Lin Chong added in his mind.
