Chapter 45: Pointing the way(1/2)

Although Nan Ke's memory last night was a little blurry, he vaguely remembered that the last "trouble" no, the captain seemed to have such a hand. A light suddenly flashed in his hand, and then he felt like he had turned on an accelerator.

Although the captain's move did not work until he even made himself fall down faster, he was not the one he had last night.

Nan Ke obviously dared not forget the trouble that he had left for himself. At the same time, he also remembered that although the "painting" on the wall did not record what he had committed;

But in the article given by the young master, the content recorded was five officials, three died and one disappeared. Others may not know the inside story, but Nan Ke was clear.

The constable who was left by himself obviously left the scene early before other officials rushed over, and even did not appear in the public's sight after leaving.

‘I’ve only killed three constables last night. Oh no, it should be the one I killed with my own hands, so there should be four.

And the person in front of you...

"You dare to follow me?"

This time, Nan Ke didn't intimidate. He really confirmed the identity of the person in front of him. At the same time, he was also a little surprised at the courage of this person.

If I hadn't been angry with me last night, this captain wouldn't have had a chance to see the sun today. He finally escaped. When he saw me today, he would still dare to follow me?

Captain Zhou looked back and saw that at the end of the street and alley was a courtyard wall. This wall should have been newly built. He remembered that when he came here a few years ago, there was no wall here.

There was no escape in the future. As for moving forward, although it was not far from the alley, he obviously couldn't get through. Although Nan Ke in front of him was a little "weak" compared to yesterday, he was still more than enough to deal with himself.

Seeing that he really had no way out, the captain no longer concealed his hat and directly took off his hat, which was very free and easy.

After taking off the constable uniform, Captain Zhou looked very ordinary, with the look that he would be thrown into the crowd and be submerged by the sea of ​​people the next moment.

However, at this time, Captain Zhou's eyes were a little swollen, and there were obvious scratches on his right face.

"I have no choice." Captain Zhou said.

"Tell me." Nan Ke pointed to the scratch on Captain Zhou's face, "I remember, I didn't slap in the face."

According to normal logic, this person should have too late to avoid him, but now he still takes the initiative to run behind him to follow him?

Apparently, he either had his brain broken last night, or there were other reasons, and that even forced him to take the risk to come to him.

"You didn't kill me last night, otherwise I should have died long ago."

"Barring nonsense, that's all?"

Captain Zhou's face was a little gloomy and continued, "But if you don't kill me, there are other people who want to kill me. If I weren't forced to do anything, I wouldn't dare to follow me."

"That young man who came with you?" Nan Ke was obviously not surprised. Anyone with some social experience understands this kind of thing.

Business is about business, and favors are about favors. Once this transaction fails, do you really think this favor is still there?

If the young master had some scheming and skill, he would never dare to play with such things. Even outsiders like Nan Ke knew that the laws of the Great Chu were not counted at times, but at times, they could not touch them.

It just so happened that what happened to the young master and the captain last night was the kind of person who would be crushed to pieces if they were found when they were caught. In this case, it would be strange if they didn't kill them.

Captain Zhou pursed his lips and looked at Nan Ke, "When I woke up last night, a servant was dragging me to a dry well. Fortunately, I woke up early, otherwise I would have drowned in the well so confused."

"Is that servant the young master's man?"

"It should be."

"So, you killed the servant and didn't dare to go back to the government office, for fear that the young man would slander you. However, no matter how much you choose, you shouldn't follow me after seeing me."

Nan Ke looked down at his arm. The wound just now had begun to heal. Then, he raised his head and looked at Captain Zhou and said:

"Do you really think I won't attack you, or do you think your head was broken last night and you wanted to come and die?"

When Captain Zhou heard this, he glanced at Nan Ke and saw that Nan Ke had no tendency to take action, he continued to say:

"I really had no choice. I wanted to escape from the city before he discovered my affairs, but when I arrived at the city gate, the city gate was already blocked tightly, and I couldn't get out;

But staying here, the Deng family has many ears and ears. It’s okay to hide for a while, but I really don’t know how long I can hide. I happened to see you appear in front of the tea shop, although you…you…”

Captain Zhou had been 'you' for a long time, but he didn't know how to continue this sentence;

On the one hand, Nan Ke did kill three of his colleagues last night;

But on the other hand, if Nan Ke really wanted to kill, he would never be able to escape last night. If this captain was also a person from later generations, he might be able to say, "You are the angel among the devils."

but,

Captain Zhou was a rough man, and he was stuck in his throat in one breath. After a long time, he finally said, "Young Master is kind-hearted!"

"Ha..." Nan Ke laughed, "I'm kind-hearted? How do you know that I won't tie you up later and send you directly to the Deng family's courtyard. Maybe I can get a reward."

"Young Master is joking, right?" Captain Zhou chuckled, "The Deng family is a tough guy, and they met you last night. Although you are much better than me, you are a very good person..."

"Maybe not as good as you, right?" Nan Ke answered.

This week, the captain was considered a missing official, and now he is a complete fugitive.

A fugitive tied up an official to go to the home of a rich man in the city to receive a reward. Although it is not completely impossible for him to happen, at least at present, it is unrealistic to stay in the capital city that is superficially peaceful.

And for the Deng family’s young master, his identity is really no different from that of Captain Zhou. If he could, the young master would not give him any chance to survive.

At that time, there may be a reward, or it may be a double portion, but the way you give it is probably to burn it to yourself.

Captain Zhou did not respond, but it was obvious that he thought so.

"It's useless to say this. You should know that there are conditions for me to keep you.

You are also a captain, and you are not a slut. Besides, if it weren't for you last night, I wouldn't have been involved so deeply.

Now, if you want me to help you, I can help you. I am not a stingy person, but why?"

Nan Ke patted the trunk next to him, and three or two leaves were shaken down, one of which fell on Captain Zhou's head.

Captain Zhou raised his head and didn't care about the fallen leaves on his head. Instead, he asked directly: "What do you need me for?"

"Since you have been a captain for so many years, you must know where the Deng family is?" Nan Ke asked.

"Of course, I'm familiar with alleys of alleys in Liudu City."

"What is their level of staying in the capital here?"

"It's not enough to compare with the top, but it's more than enough to compare with the bottom. Although the Deng family is rich, they are just rich. They started their business by relying on commerce and have made friends with some serious and powerful people in the capital.

But you should know who those powerful people are... "

Captain Zhou looked at Nan Ke's outfit at this time. Judging from his clothes alone, Nan Ke should obviously be classified as the powerful.

"You keep going."

"Their connection with the powerful is just money. It's like a business. If you have money, everyone likes to get a share of the pie, but if something happens, you have to accompany the capital;

Hey,

Who is really willing to take care of someone else's house?"

Although Constable Zhou is not a high-ranking person, he has been struggling for more than 20 years and is very clear about the tempers of these powerful people.

"I didn't ask these, I just wanted to know, how good is their guard?"

"Guardian?" Captain Zhou was stunned, "I don't know this, but I think it's a master who has no grades is willing to go to his house."

Although the Great Chu State has become a martial arts trend and has many people in the country, whether it is practicing martial arts or practicing Taoism, in addition to finding out the background and family, it also depends on qualifications. It is easy to practice one move and half of the stance.

But, it is difficult to get it.

Although the ninth grade has just passed the threshold, there are really no few who can be found in this small town, except for the group of raiders passing by.

And even those who have won the prize are famous in the capital. They are so comfortable to open a martial arts school to earn money and receive disciples. Why bother to be a guard at a wealthy businessman who is not easy to do?

It was a bit too much and was still uncomfortable.

"Um."

Nan Ke nodded, thinking that he had some preliminary plans.

He raised his head and looked at Constable Zhou, and suddenly remembered that when he saw this person, he was sitting in the tea shop. The location of the tea shop was not far from the seat he had made with Wutong.

He asked again immediately:

"Since you were in that tea shop this morning, have you ever seen a girl?"

"Girl?" Captain Zhou thought for a while and said, "The owner of the tea shop brought a girl into the tea shop and took a break, but the girl didn't sit for long..."

Speaking of this, Constable Zhou suddenly linked two things together. He has been a headmaster for many years, and he still has such a little analysis and association ability.

"Since the girl knew you, she should have seen that Jiwen when she left. She couldn't say that she had found a seat to hide now. Don't worry."

"She left when she saw Ji Wen?" Nan Ke asked with a frown.

With that girl's personality, Nan Ke didn't think she would hide, and of course, she wouldn't just go to die so stupidly.

Although Wutong is not tall, her brain-long nutrition is not missing much. Otherwise, a girl's house would not have been wandering outside for so many years.

"Yes." Captain Zhou confirmed that Old Liu didn't pay attention, but he noticed when Wutong left.

"Okay." Nan Ke pointed at Captain Zhou, "You must not want to die, right?"

"Of course I don't want to die if I can live."

"You don't want to lose your official position, right?"

"Of course it's best not to lose it!"

"Then tell me, if Mr. Deng is gone, can you push everything on him?" Nan Ke pursed his lips, paused for a moment and continued, "I mean, you understand?"
To be continued...
