Chapter three hundred and seventy third the last resort
"Speaking of this, I'm curious. How did you connect the case of the missing brothel woman with those street gangsters?" Lin Chong wondered.
"There's nothing surprising about this. These little gangsters are already very powerful in the local area. They can even do some things that the government can't do easily. For those singers, sometimes they will go to the police when they encounter difficulties.
Find these people to figure out a solution."
"This is simply the ancient underworld, the lowest level of underworld, just like a group of students who have not yet graduated and are fighting together." Lin Chong complained softly.
"What did you just say? What is high-level and low-level?" Yuan Qingfang raised her eyebrows.
"Nothing, nothing. I was thinking, since they can follow the line of the gangsters, can we also find a solution from them?"
"It probably won't work. With the strength of the Heaven and Earth Sect, we can't find anything, let alone how weak we are now."
"Maybe they have discovered it a long time ago, but they just hid it from us." Lin Chong snorted.
"Maybe." Yuan Qingfang smiled: "It's getting late, go and rest quickly. People from Tiandimen will definitely come over tomorrow morning. You have to brace yourself to deal with them then."
Lin Chong originally thought that with so many things happening during the day and so many thoughts before going to bed at night, it would be difficult to fall asleep in bed.
Unexpectedly, he still underestimated his own strength. He fell asleep almost as soon as his head touched the pillow, so fast that Yuan Qingfang couldn't help but suspect that he had been drugged with sweat medicine.
At noon the next day, people from Tiandi Gate did come over, but the only person who came over was Duanmuling. He was still wearing that cool white clothes, and he was not polite to Lin Chong. After sitting down, he took the snacks on the table and drank herbal tea.
wolf.
Lin Chong frowned: "Can you stop looking like a starving ghost reincarnated? No one is trying to snatch it from you, why are you in such a hurry?"
Although he was devouring his food, Duanmuling didn't look rude when eating. This was probably due to the upbringing that he had been raised in a large family. No matter what he did, he always had a touch of natural elegance.
"Who says no one will rob me? The people who rob me are on the road and will be here soon. I have to eat more before they come." Duanmuling spoke while eating, and his enunciation was still very clear.
Lin Chong was surprised: "Are you talking about Yanli? Why didn't he and Miss Liu come with you this time?"
Speaking of this issue, Duanmuling looked gloating: "We are competing, and whoever loses will stay and eat the lunch made by Xiaoyan. I won, so I came."
Lin Chong: "I'm really curious about how terrible the food cooked by Miss Liu is, so that you can avoid it like this?"
Duanmuling looked confused: "Let's put it this way, have you ever tasted chicken soup made from the feathers of a whole chicken?"
"Chicken feathers? What about the meat?"
"Feed the weasel. It was Xiaoyan's pet last year. It lived for about three months, which is considered a very long life. What, you want to try the lunch she made? I will bring it to you tomorrow."
Lin Chong quickly waved his hand: "No, no, it's too much trouble for you, we can just go outside and have something to eat, hahaha..."
Duanmuling emptied the plate of snacks and shook the empty plate reluctantly: "You went to the brothels where the accident happened yesterday. Did you find any problems?"
"Yes, we have found some. We visited several brothels yesterday and also asked the girls who have been there for a long time. The final conclusion we came to is that there should be some mysterious connection between these women."
"But they don't know each other."
"Yes, I know. But have you noticed that these women have one thing in common? Whether they are very famous or have just started in this industry, they have almost never had a dispute with anyone."
"I found this, but what does it mean?" Duanmu Ling asked smoothly.
"It stands to reason that if these women live together every day, they will inevitably have conflicts, but all the missing women seem to be trying their best to avoid disputes with others. Why do you think this is?" Lin Chong said slowly.
"Why? Because they don't want to attract other people's attention? Once they have a dispute with other people, they will inevitably attract a group of people to attack." Duanmu Ling understood very well.
"That's right, they don't want to attract other people's attention, so it must be because of some special status that made them make a common choice. They sacrificed a lot for this choice." Lin Chong sighed.
"We have sent people to check the identities of these people, but no problems have been found before. Xiaoyan has already told the people at the headquarters about this matter, and the detailed investigation results should be available in the next few days.
.”
"That would be perfect. As long as we can figure out the tracks of these people and check them one by one, we can always find clues from them."
Even if it is a fraud, it will eventually leave traces. As long as you follow the traces backwards, you can find the secrets shared by these missing women.
"Let me also tell you about our discovery." Duanmu Xi had something in his stomach and spoke with more strength than before.
"We have been following those little gangsters to trace the forces behind them, and we have found some clues, but they have little to do with the current matter."
"Are there really other forces behind them?" Lin Chong was surprised. He thought it was just an ordinary local underworld, but he didn't expect it to be just a subsidiary company.
"Actually, if we really talk about these little gangsters, their life is not easy. Most of these people are orphans without fathers and mothers. It is not easy for them to struggle and survive to this day. The money they collect can be obtained by themselves.
In fact, it’s only a very small part. If you don’t receive it, you will not only be punished but also have to find a way to make up for it yourself.”
Lin Chong was surprised. He did not expect that this kind of thing would happen hundreds of years ago in the Ming Dynasty, but this time their target was not disabled children, but these half-grown men who could fight and do things.
"There are quite a few of them, why not try to resist?"
"Who knows, maybe they are used to it. They have grown up like this since they were young." Duanmu Ling was helpless. At this moment, he was a little lucky that Duanmu Xi could meet the emperor in the most difficult time, otherwise such a tragedy might also happen to him.
On my younger brother.
"These little gangsters are working hard to make money for others. In fact, sometimes they themselves may not even have enough to eat."
Lin Chong shook his head: "Poor people must be hateful. They themselves chose to insist on living like this, but they can't blame others."
