Chapter 431
Ye Caitang went back to change clothes. When he came out, he saw Xia Yue coming.
His cousin came all the way to seek refuge with him and suffered such grievances, so he definitely wanted to care about her. And judging from the tone in which Shen Xingyao spoke to him just now, the relationship between the cousins should be very good.
Shen Xingyao is eating. This girl looks thin and can eat quite well. Of course, it is also possible that she has been really hungry for the past two days.
The door was ajar, Xia Yue knocked and opened it, and saw Shen Xingyao holding a chicken leg in her left hand and chopsticks in her right hand.
"Cousin." Shen Xingyao swallowed the chicken drumstick in her mouth.
"Are you okay?" Xia Yue sat at the table, and Ye Caitang also sat down.
Then, Shen Xingyao's little girl named Mo Fen was originally sitting next to her and eating together. But when she saw Xia Yue coming, she quickly put down her rice bowl and stood up.
There are many rules in a wealthy family, and servants are not allowed to eat at the same table as the master. But it is outside, so I don't pay too much attention to it.
This was the little girl's stop. Ye Caitang wondered if he should stand up too.
Wang Tong calls Shen Xingyao Miss Biao. The Young Master and Miss are talking about things like home. What is she doing here?
So Ye Caitang stood up.
Before she could decide whether she should stand behind Xia Yue or go out first, Xia Yue turned to look at her.
Xia Yue asked curiously: "What's wrong?"
Ye Caitang hesitated and said, "Isn't it inappropriate for me to sit here?"
"Then where do you want to sit?" Xia Yue was even more confused: "On the table?"
"..." Ye Caitang really wanted to roll his eyes at Xia Yue, why is it so difficult to talk to you?
Xia Yue is still aggrieved. It's inexplicable. Then where do you want to sit? Tell me where you want to sit. How do I know if you don't tell me? Aren't everyone sitting on a chair?
How about you sit on my lap?
Xia Yue also wanted to roll his eyes at Ye Caitang.
You can be unreasonable, but you can't be so unreasonable. You are really difficult to serve.
Shen Xingyao didn't eat anymore. She rolled her eyes, looking at Xia Yue and then at Ye Caitang. Well, there was an undercurrent.
Ye Caitang finally couldn't bear it anymore and said: "Sir, we have captured so many prisoners. I will go see if there is anything I can do to help. You can have dinner with Miss Shen."
Then Ye Caitang nodded to Shen Xingyao and left.
After closing the door, Xia Yue couldn't help but vomited: "It's really hard to take care of..."
"..." Shen Xingyao finally couldn't eat anymore. She moved her chair and moved it to Xia Yue's side. She also ordered: "Toner, go out and watch the door."
The toner goes out after being applied.
Xia Yue looked disgusted at her cousin who still had greasy hands and mouth: "What are you going to do? Let me tell you, now that you are a big girl, it is not appropriate for you to attack me."
Shen Xingyao waved her hand: "Cousin, you think too much. Why should I attack you? I have a question to ask you."
"Say it."
Shen Xingyao said: "Do you know what I came to the capital to do?"
Xia Yue frowned and said, "What else can you do? Just wander around when you have nothing to do."
"No, no, no." Shen Xingyao said, "I came here with a mission."
Xia Yue felt a little uneasy.
"What's wrong with your stomach?"
Shen Xingyao chuckled: "Someone sent word back that my cousin is in the capital and has close contact with a girl's family. I have been ordered by my aunt to come and investigate."
Xia Yue was shocked.
who?
Could it be Wang Tong? Impossible, Wang Tong doesn't have the guts, nor is he that gossipy.
"If I don't tell you, I can't betray the tipper." Shen Xingyao said: "It's not Brother Wang, it's someone else. Looking at it this way, there is no wrong tip."
Xia Yue immediately straightened his face: "I don't know what you are talking about."
Shen Xingyao was not in a hurry to expose Xia Yue, nor was he in a hurry to wipe his hands. Then he picked up the chicken leg and ate it, shaking his head and saying: "If you don't know, you don't know. Anyway, I want to live with you for a while, I have eyes."
Shen Xingyao pointed to her eyes.
"Everything will come to light naturally."
Xia Yue saw that his cousin was not at all sad about being trafficked, but was full of life, and left without hesitation.
We're still busy outside, so I don't have time to talk nonsense to you.
Shen Xingyao finished her meal quickly, wiped her hands, and then said: "Let's go."
Toner hurriedly asked: "Miss, where are you going?"
"Of course I'm going to help. Everyone is busy, so I can't just eat for free."
What he said made sense. Toner followed Shen Xingyao out.
Shen Xingyao was the first to go see Zhao Shu.
As the leader, Xia Yue is interrogating him.
Zhao Shu does not know martial arts, but he manages dozens of people. These dozens of people have a clear division of labor, and they all have a concealed identity, hidden among the crowd.
Xia Yue said: "Whether you are a good person or a bad person, you are a smart person if you can control so many people. In this situation, you will definitely not be able to leave the six doors alive. The only difference is how you die."
Zhao Shu stared at Xia Yue with his small eyes.
Xia Yue leaned back on the large chair and showed no anger.
"Tell me the truth and I'll give you a good time. If you don't want to have such a good time, there are plenty of ways to get people to talk to you in the six doors."
The room that Zhao Shu was in at this time was a torture chamber, an iron cross with hanging iron chains and handcuffs and shackles.
There are two long tables on the side, with various utensils placed on them. Some of the utensils still have blood stains on them.
Next to it, there is a stove with a brazier and glowing red coals on it.
The reputation of Six Doors is so bad, not only because Wang Tong and others did not smile brightly when handling cases outside, but also because many people really have to peel off their skin after entering Six Doors.
For example, like Zhao Shu, although he deserves his punishment, the people outside sometimes spread false rumors from ten to ten, which is outrageous.
Seeing that Zhao Shu didn't speak, Wang Tong picked up a piece of red-hot charcoal from the stove with iron tongs.
You can feel a burning sensation even if you don't get close.
Zhao Shu's whole body tensed up instantly.
Suddenly the door was pushed open, and Ye Caitang poked his head in from the outside and said, "Sir, I want to talk to..."
Half of the words are said and clearly understood.
Xia Yue was stunned for a moment, and Wang Tong was also stunned for a moment, and almost threw the pliers in his hand with the red-hot charcoal.
"Um..." Ye Caitang saw the situation in the room clearly, his heart beat twice, and his expression was a bit complicated.
Of course she knew that in this era of trial cases, there was a penalty.
From the bottom of her heart, she couldn't accept this matter, but since it was stipulated by the law to do as the Romans do, there was nothing wrong with her as long as she didn't take human life lightly.
But when I saw it suddenly, I was still a little shocked.
Xia Yue stood up and walked quickly to the door, blocking Ye Caitang's view.
"Zhao Shu refuses to recruit." Xia Yue said: "The earlier we let him speak, the more victims he had trafficked before could be rescued."
