Jiang Dali walked peacefully.
The neighbors in the alley were blown away by the fireball, but Cao Ren and Jiang Yiyi, who looked covered in blood, were particularly quiet.
When the smoke and dust cleared, the embarrassed neighbors saw Jiang Dali lying in a pool of blood, and the alley suddenly became silent.
Private fights are strictly prohibited in Wuhai City. Disputes can only be resolved on the duel platform. Scenes of killings in the streets are rare.
The neighbors hesitated for a moment, and soon became filled with indignation:
"Jiang Dali attacked Guanshi Cao secretly. He has his own way of killing himself. He deserves to die!"
"It is not a pity to die for such beasts. Manager Cao is doing justice to God!"
If Jiang Dali hadn't been dead at this moment, they would have wanted to go up and kick him to vent their anger at having their clothes burned.
The death of a casual cultivator was not a big deal in Wuhai City, but it involved a handyman, so the people from the Punishment Hall came very quickly.
Cao Ren was taken away, and the neighbors present were also questioned.
The person who took Cao Ren to the Punishment Hall was an outside disciple. He did not embarrass Cao Ren on the way and even used a cleaning technique on him to wash away the blood on his body.
A wall lamp was lit in the windowless interrogation room, and the light was dim. Cao Ren stood alone in the room, waiting for the person who came to interrogate him.
Anyone who kills people often knows that killing people is much easier than killing monsters.
After killing demons and ghosts for a month, Cao Ren no longer felt any physical discomfort, and he was now in a calm mood.
The door of the interrogation room was opened, Cao Ren raised his eyes, and a bright green skirt came into his eyes.
Standing at the door was a petite girl with a smooth oval face, eyebrows like green feathers, and muscles like white snow.
Her slender waist was tied up with a ribbon, and her chest looked even more majestic. A palm-sized golden abacus hung around her waist.
She held half a sesame seed cake in her hand, her cheeks bulging and chewing happily.
This young girl, Cao Ren, recognized Su Yimo, the leader of the Punishment Hall, who was also the master of the Duzhi Hall. He held the punishment and financial power of Wuhai City and was one of the six golden elixirs in Wuhai City.
Speaking of which, he was still his boss. He had seen him from a distance during the morning meeting before.
Su Yimo glanced towards the interrogation room, his eyes couldn't help but light up...
It was a young man in green clothes, with a face as white as jade, thin lips and a hanging nose, standing like a orchid tree, with a handsome appearance and an air of elegance.
The warm yellow candlelight swayed, which could not hide his handsome appearance, and he was a handsome young man with full demeanor.
At a glance, it looks like the rain on the eaves in April is a surprise in the world.
Hey, isn't he wearing the uniform of a handyman that has always been criticized for being ugly? Sure enough, it wasn't the clothes that were ugly, it was the other handymen.
"Killed? Why were you so careless? You weren't hurt, were you?" Su Yimo stepped in the door with a smile on his face and a gentle tone of voice.
The two Taiyi Sect disciples who came in looked at each other in confusion. Hall Master Su usually dealt with suspects, but he was known to be selfless and dignified. Why did he suddenly pick him up today?
Cao Ren quickly raised his hands and said, "It's not hurt."
"Sit down and chat slowly. I'll have breakfast first." Su Yimo motioned for Cao Ren to sit down. While eating the cake, he looked through the files and Cao Ren's information handed over by his subordinates. He looked up at him from time to time and felt that he was The beauty and sesame cakes have become a lot more delicious.
He is good-looking, has a good outlook on life, and does part-time work every day after work. A man who works hard and makes progress is really attractive.
Su Yimo chewed slowly and took a long time to finish half of the sesame seed cake in his hand. He wiped the corners of his mouth with a handkerchief and said with a smile: "You look pretty good at eating. Is this what you call beauty and good looks?"
Cao Ren:? ? ?
Even in those eight diaries, he had never seen such a greasy opening.
"Then let's go through the motions." Su Yimo closed the file and said with a smile: "Cao Ren, why did you kill Jiang Dali?"
"Because Jiang Dali made a sneak attack with a talisman, in order to protect the children and onlookers at the scene, my subordinates had no choice but to subdue him." Cao Ren said without being humble or overbearing.
"You seem a little nervous."
"After all, it's my first time to kill someone, so I'm not used to it yet."
"You can handle this, but there is a problem." Su Yimo's smile faded.
Cao Ren's heart tightened, could there be something wrong?
"Killing your wife and selling your daughter, you are such a scumbag, and you let him live to this day?!" Su Yimo's face became a little more indignant: "You should reflect on it when you go back. Could it be that he went crazy and attacked you today? , you won’t kill him? Just let him sell such a young daughter?”
Cao Ren:? ? ?
"What Hall Master Su said is that I will reflect on it when I go back." Cao Ren nodded in agreement and tried to persuade him.
"Forget it, you did a good job today. We will reward you for doing such good deeds." Su Yimo smiled again.
"Reward?" Cao Ren asked subconsciously.
"Yes, I'll reward you with salary." Su Yimo held out three fingers: "Three months."
"Thank you, Hall Master Su!" Cao Ren's eyes lit up, and he said seriously: "It doesn't matter whether the bonus is a bonus or not. We monks should hoe the strong, help the weak, and uphold justice."
The smile on Su Yimo's face grew stronger. He liked money, and I happened to be rich. How could there be such a coincidence in this world?
"Hall Master, can I go back?" Cao Ren asked softly.
"Oh, don't call me hall master, hall master. It looks like you are very old." Su Yimo smiled brightly, "I see that you have to go down the mountain to do tasks every day after collecting the rent. It seems that you want to be so diligent. After accumulating contribution points and passing the test to become an official disciple of Taiyi Sect, you can just call me Senior Sister."
"this……"
"This year's test for the outer disciples of Wuhai City seems to be my turn to host it."
"Okay, Senior Sister Su."
Su Yimo showed a satisfied smile on his face, stood up and prepared to leave. When he walked to the door, he looked back at Cao Ren and said, "Let's have dinner together next time when we have time."
…
Cao Ren was sent out by the Punishment Hall disciple who brought him here earlier.
"Brother Cao, I'm Wang Liqun. If you need help with anything in the future, just come to me." The honest-looking young man said with a smile.
"Okay, thank you, Brother Wang." Cao Ren arched his hand, took his sword from his hand, and turned to leave.
"It's really enviable to have such a face." Wang Liqun looked at Cao Ren's back and sighed.
Turning the corner, Cao Ren touched his face. He never thought that one day he would be able to rely on his face for a living.
But the thought of getting three months' salary as a reward made the smile on his face brighter.
Today is the 15th, and everyone is not going out to do tasks, and is staying in Wuhai City.
Jiang Dali sold his daughter, but Cao Ren stopped him, clashed with him, and eventually killed him, which soon spread throughout Puning Street.
Public opinion was one-sided, almost all on Cao Ren's side, and criticized Jiang Dali verbally and writtenly.
"As expected of Brother Cao!" Xiao Yunzhan squatted at the door of Cao Ren's house and looked towards the street: "But why hasn't Brother Cao come back yet? Is everything going to be okay?"
Cao Ren returned to Puning Street, but he did not go home directly. He went to find a house first, and then went directly to Lane 7.
The scene has been cleaned up. Jiang Dali only has a daughter named Jiang Yiyi in Wuhai City, so the body has been dragged out of the city and buried by the handymen.
The idle neighbors were still discussing what happened in the morning. There was a recliner in front of Jiang Dali's house, and a handyman was leaning on the recliner and taking a nap.
"Guanshi Cao is back!"
"Guan Cao, just be fine."
When the neighbors saw Cao Ren, they all greeted him with a little more awe than before.
The handyman opened his eyes when he heard the sound. He stood up and looked at Cao Ren who had already arrived and said, "There is only one little girl left in this family. The adults are afraid that someone will rob her of her things, so they sent me to guard her here." Well, now that you are back, I leave it to you."
"Okay, thank you, senior brother." Cao Ren handed over his hands and watched the handyman leave.
The door suddenly opened, and Jiang Yiyi looked at Cao Ren standing at the door, with a happy smile on his face.
The little girl is already cute and cute, but she has lost some weight. If she takes good care of her, she will become even better.
Jiang Dali's death seemed to have lifted the shadow over her head. Her face became more confident and her smile became much brighter.
"Jiang Yiyi, pack your things. You won't be staying here tonight." Cao Ren said, with a smile on his face.
"Yes." Jiang Yiyi nodded, turned around and went in. After a while, he came out carrying a small package.
Cao Ren locked the door, then looked at the neighbors in the alley and said loudly: "Dear neighbors, the items in this house belong to Jiang Yiyi. I will dispose of them in the next two days and give her the money and goods. Everyone. Be a witness and help take care of things. If there is something missing, I will get to the bottom of it."
The neighbors quickly said yes. After seeing Cao Ren's tricks, those who were originally a little cautious stopped thinking about it.
"Let's go." Cao Ren said and walked away first.
Jiang Yiyi trotted all the way on his short legs to keep up. Looking at Cao Ren's hand hanging by his side, he hesitated, stretched out his little hand and gently pulled one of his fingers.
Cao Ren looked down, and the little guy looked up at him, with a trace of nervousness in his eyes, and whispered: "Brother Cao Ren, can Yiyi hold your hand?"
"Of course." Cao Ren gently held her little hand and slowed down a bit so that she could keep up.
"Thank you, Brother Cao Ren, today is the happiest day for me." Jiang Yiyi rubbed his hand with her head, like a well-behaved kitten.
Cao Ren's heart trembled, how could she be so cute!
Holding Jiang Yiyi's little hand, he inexplicably had the illusion of holding his daughter. During this period, the pressure of slaying demons seemed to have dissipated a lot.
He left Alley 7 and turned into Alley 5, stopping in front of a house.
"Brother Cao Ren, isn't this your home?" Jiang Yiyi looked at the house number and asked in confusion.
"This is Uncle Zhu Lian's house. You can stay at their house for a few days." Cao Ren let go of her hand and knocked on the door.
