"Didn't I make the specific situation very clear in class?" Jiang Nianjiao said coldly.
Lu Zhizhang only smiled and consoled her, "Young lady, you don't have to be so excited. My coming to question her is just a routine matter before there is new evidence."
"Of course I believe that the girl is innocent. Don't worry, girl, I will try my best to keep the girl out."...
Lu Zhizhang's next words were almost all about comforting Jiang Nianjiao.
If she had not experienced this in her previous life, and was suddenly comforted by someone and promised to save her when she encountered this kind of thing, Jiang Nianjiao would probably be grateful to the person in front of her.
It's a pity that they were once married. She really knew Lu Zhizhang's character too well.
If it weren't for the immediate situation, she probably wouldn't even pay attention to him.
And when he looked into Youling's eyes just now, he could see it clearly.
He thought that although Youling didn't want to fight against him, he probably didn't have the guts to fight against him either.
Now that the man in front of him was deliberately trying to please him, Jiang Nianjiao suddenly felt a surge of anger in his heart.
But the more this happens, the better she can pretend.
Jiang Nianjiao flattened her lips in grievance and said, "It would be great if Master Lu could trust me. I hope you can help me get out as soon as possible. Don't worry, sir, if I go out, I will never forget your deep friendship."
Lu Zhizhang was stunned when he saw her sudden change of expression.
Jiang Nianjiao then pretended to take out the handkerchief from her sleeve and pressed it at the corners of her eyes, looking really sad.
Lu Zhizhang expressed some doubts about this, but he still smiled and said, "Don't worry, girl, I will naturally try my best to protect you."
When Jiang Nianjiao raised her eyes again, she already had a grateful look on her face, "Thank you very much, sir."
The two then talked for a while, and then they got up when they saw Lu Zhizhang casually writing some notes that were beneficial to him.
Jiang Nianjiao thought that she didn't know how long she would have to stay back in that stale prison, so she asked softly, "Sir, rats and ants are crawling in that prison, and even the straw and wooden couches are moldy. Can you send someone to replace me?" Would you like something clean?"
Lu Zhizhang naturally nodded in agreement.
Later, when Jiang Nianjiao and Lu Zhizhang parted ways and returned to the prison, Lu Zhizhang only greeted the jailer again, so the jailer was a bit more polite to him afterwards.
And not long after returning to the prison, they came over and replaced him with clean wooden couches and bamboo mats.
Although the environment in this prison is still very harsh, at least Jiang Nianjiao can move around better than before.
As for the prisoners who lived next to Jiang Nianjiao, when they saw that Jiang Nianjiao came out of the torture chamber unharmed, they even changed her into a clean bed mat.
The prisoner couldn't help but extend his hand to Jiang Nianjiao and give a thumbs up, saying, "Young lady, you are so capable. Even the interrogator was defeated in just a moment."
Jiang Nianjiao only glanced at the man but did not answer.
She sat on the bamboo mat, intending to cross her legs to regain some energy.
Unexpectedly, the prisoner was very noisy: "Little lady, what did you commit and were arrested?"
Jiang Nianjiao intended to scare the man and simply said, "Kill someone."
Hearing Jiang Nianjiao's words, the prisoner looked at Jiang Nianjiao up and down in disbelief. Then he laughed loudly and said, "Killing? Just you?"
"Yes, it's just me. They said I sent my stepmother away after a bowl of Hedinghong." Jiang Nianjiao turned her head and looked at the prisoner holding the railing gloomily. She thought that with such threats, the prisoner would lose his temper. The desire to talk to oneself.
Not wanting the man to hear this, he gave Jiang Nianjiao a thumbs up and said, "If you really did it, then you are really powerful."
And through the man's messy grass-like hair, Jiang Nianjiao found that the man's eyes were unusually bright. Although she still couldn't see the man's full face, she could feel that the man was not belittling her.
There are really some weirdos in this prison.
Jiang Nianjiao saw that the conversation had begun, so she decided to have a few words with that person. After all, she would be locked up in this prison for an unknown number of days, so Lu Zhizhang's promise might not be of much use.
And it is obvious that his noisy neighbor knows the rules of this prison better than he does. I will definitely need that person to give me some advice in the future.
Therefore
Jiang Nianjiao also asked, "What about you? How did you get in?"
"Theft was from the largest pawnshop in the west of the city! I stole something and they didn't notice me when I came out." The prisoner seemed a little proud when he mentioned this.
Jiang Nianjiao raised her eyebrows and said, "Since I didn't find it, why were you arrested?"
Hearing Jiang Nianjiao's question, the young man's face looked a little unsightly for some reason.
However, another inmate in his cell laughed loudly when he heard this. The inmate said, "How can this kid be considered stealing with his level? I have never seen anyone go to a pawn shop in front of a room full of treasures." , you just stole a worthless broken silver hairpin, you just stole it if you wanted to, and you were stupid enough to leave an IOU on the counter asking people not to report it to the official, and you said you would pay it back slowly, and you said the government officials wouldn't arrest you. Who to arrest?"
The inmate who made the sarcastic remarks was obviously a big man. Looking at his tangled muscles, the young man dared not speak out in anger.
The young man who was originally holding on to the wooden railing could only tell the difference for himself in embarrassment, "That was my first time stealing, so I'm not sensible."
Jiang Nianjiao felt that this was not a big mistake. She thought that the young man had just gone astray for a moment. Instead, he was under the influence of being in a place like this. He was afraid that he would completely go astray in the future, so she couldn't help but ask "Don't your family ever think of ransoming you?"
But the young man said nonchalantly, "I don't want them to redeem me. I have food to eat and a place to live here. I think it's pretty good."
Unexpectedly, the big brother seemed to be at odds with the young man. If the young man said something, he would break the situation and say, "What redemption is there? His mother died a long time ago. His father married a bride and had a baby with her. The bride is intolerable." Yes, his father has a bride and a baby, so he no longer takes him seriously. Who would feel bad for a baby without a mother?"
"Boy, you are really not suitable for doing these robberies. Listen to my uncle's advice. When you get out of prison the next day, you can find some work. Even if you go to the dock to work hard, it will be better than doing this." The muscular man After saying that, he lightly slapped the young man on the back of his head.
Jiang Nianjiao didn't expect that this big guy who looked like a rough-and-tumble man would actually try to persuade the young man like this.
It's a pity that the young man didn't listen to the advice at all. His face darkened instantly after hearing what the elder brother said.
Unfortunately, he couldn't convince the big brother, so he just snorted and muttered, "I don't want it."
Then he seemed to lose interest in talking to Jiang Nianjiao and sat back in the corner.
Jiang Nianjiao felt that the muscular man was quite decent, so she also asked, "What did eldest brother do? To end up being imprisoned here?"
The eldest brother didn't shy away from his own affairs. He just wrote lightly, "Just like you, I killed someone."
"My sister works as an errand in the house of a dog official named Zheng. The contract she signed is not to sell her body. She is a good and good girl. The son of the dog official held a party. At the party, there was a beast who took a liking to my sister in public. I insulted my own sister, and my sister wanted to sue that beast, but the son of the dog official defended that beast in every possible way, and actually threw my sister into the well."
Even the strong man's eyes turned red when he mentioned this matter. It was obviously a mixture of grief and anger.
Even Jiang Nianjiao felt anger rising in her heart after hearing this, and she asked, "What happened next?"
"Then? Then I tied up the son of the dog official and asked him who the beast was that insulted my sister that day? Who would have thought that the boy was so tight-lipped and refused to say the name of the beast, so I will kill him directly."
"It's a pity that I didn't catch that beast together, so I could send them to hell together."
When he said this, the strong man's fists were clenched, and his face showed clear anger and unwillingness.
Jiang Nianjiao rarely hears such things, so she can't help but ask, "Who is the dog officer named Zheng you are talking about?"
"Who else could it be? Of course it is Yin Zhengqian, the current Shangjing Prefecture!" The strong man said angrily.
Jiang Nianjiao was frightened when she heard Zheng Qian's name. Although Zheng Qian belonged to the Chen family, he seemed to be quite honest.
I just didn't expect that such a humble character could be such a ruthless character.
However, Jiang Nianjiao had a plan in mind after hearing this.
Didn't they want to beat her up? In that case, don't blame her for being rude.
After thinking for a while, Jiang Nianjiao asked the eldest brother's name and more information about his sister in detail.
The elder brother was not on guard, but he answered whatever Jiang Nianjiao asked.
Then Jiang Nianjiao quickly learned the general information. The man's name was Wang Tieniu, and his sister's name was Wang Lihua. Both of them are from Shangjing. Because their mother was seriously ill, in order to treat her mother, their brother Wang Tieniu went to the dock to move things, and their sister also asked someone to help in the kitchen of Zheng's house. It was impossible to help her originally. I don’t know what happened that day. Wang Lihua only went to the banquet to pour wine. When she was pouring wine, one of them insulted Wang Lihua. This caused the subsequent tragedy.
After Jiang Nianjiao learned about this, she naturally had a plan in mind.
At around noon, the jailer came to serve food. I don’t know if Lu Zhizhang had specifically ordered it, while everyone else was served a bowl of porridge with a dry steamed bun. Her steamed bun looked much normal, except that there was an egg hidden under the bun.
Even so, Jiang Nianjiao didn't have much appetite.
The young man next to her saw that she didn't touch those things at all, and felt it was a pity. After all, if you don't eat these things now, they will be confiscated when the jailer comes to collect the bowls.
Therefore, the young man just smashed the shackles on the wooden railing on Jiang Nianjiao's side and said, "Hey! Aren't you going to have lunch?"
"I don't have much appetite." Jiang Nianjiao replied.
The young man quickly said, "If you don't want to eat it, why not give it to me, otherwise this steamed bun will go to waste."
Although the young man looks skinny, he is still at the age where he is half a grown man and would kill me.
The people in the prison were afraid that these people would riot, so it was impossible to feed them. Therefore, the young man's eyes glowed green when he said this.
