Di Xiong said: "I don't see that you are still a loyal person. It seems that Boss Zhu made the right choice when he asked you to be the shopkeeper. You can continue to be the shopkeeper here and I will double your salary."
Dixiong proposed to Wei's wife that he should repay the back wages, but Wei's wife refused. She insisted on paying off the debt before leaving. Even shopkeeper Wu forced two silver dollars into her hand. Di Xiong learned about several people in the store from shopkeeper Wu: the fat cook's surname was Bao, nicknamed "Rou Baozi" because of his fatness; the waiter Ma Gan, whose surname was Du, was only sixteen years old and was nicknamed "Du Ma Gan"; He is two years older and his surname is Zhang. He is nicknamed "Zhang Black Face" because of his dark face. Shopkeeper Wu is in his forties and his name is Wu Zhong. Di Xiong took out another ten silver dollars and gave it to Wu Zhong, asking him to arrange for the clerk to buy a batch of new tables, chairs, window paper, vegetables and meat, clean the store, and prepare to reopen tomorrow. He also announced that it would be processed by the clerk and the cook. money. After arranging all this, he took Bai Xiuling out of the hotel.
Zhang Blackface watched Di Xiong leave, then turned around and asked Shopkeeper Wu: "Is there something wrong with this new boss? How can he still make money if he still gives us a salary increase when the business is so bad?"
Du Ma Gan said: "He can't find people now, so he gave us a salary increase to retain people. Do you think you can get so much money in the long term?"
Shopkeeper Wu said: "You don't have to worry, I can see that Mr. Di is a smart man, and the restaurant may become prosperous in his hands."
The large iron door of the Xicheng Police Station is covered with red rust. If it weren't for the white sign that reads "Jingshi Police Station Xicheng Branch" hanging next to the door, pedestrians would almost mistake it for an abandoned building. Patrolman Li Fei was reading the newspaper in the duty room when he saw Di Xiong walking in with a beautiful girl on his back. He quickly greeted him: "Mr. Di came to work? Did he bring his girlfriend with him? He is so beautiful!"
The status of detectives in the police station is higher than that of patrol officers. Patrol officers are very polite when meeting detectives and take the initiative to say hello, even to Di Xiong, who is called "idiot Di".
Di Xiong smiled and said: "Brother Li came so early. She is indeed very beautiful, but it's a pity that she is not my girlfriend."
It was already past ten o'clock in the morning, but the detective room was actually empty. Di Xiong was actually the first detective to come to work. Bai Xiuling was taken to a chair by Di Xiong and sat down. Di Xiong sat down behind a desk, took out pen and paper from the drawer, and began to interrogate.
In fact, Di Xiong knew the process of Bai Xiuling's crime, and there was nothing to ask. He directly wrote about the incident. The only question was who the scar-faced brawny man and the red-faced boy were.
Bai Xiuling said: "Scarface is one of the four big bosses of the Flying Eagle Gang: Fourth Master Fei Bao. As for the red-faced boy in the cap you mentioned, I don't know him at all. He may be a pedestrian who takes action when he sees injustice on the road."
Di Xiong sighed and said: "When you get here, you still refuse to tell me the truth. Do you think I don't dare to torture you? Let's do this! I will send you to the detention center first, and you can think it through in there first. I will review it tomorrow."
Bai Xiuling looked very frightened when she heard that she was going to be sent to the detention center. She quickly knelt down and begged: "Please don't send me to the detention center. I said everything. The red-faced boy's name is Wu Chunlei, but he is from the Flying Eagle Gang." He is a pawn, why do you need to embarrass him?"
Di Xiong said: "Even if you say it, I still have to send you to the detention center. Originally, you stole and resisted arrest, and you should have been sent to prison for three years. Considering that you are young and pitiful, you are only eighteen years old at most, I will do it." If you are a good person, I will only detain you for fifteen days, and it will not be written on the case file that you resisted arrest."
Seeing that begging for mercy was useless, Bai Xiuling closed her eyes in despair, and two lines of tears flowed down Bai Xi's face. She murmured: "After fifteen days, I'm afraid I won't even have any bones left."
The director of the detention center of Xicheng Police Station is named Liang. He is nicknamed "Pockmarked Liang" because of his pockmarked face. When Liang Mazi saw a beautiful female prisoner brought in by Di Xiong, his eyes suddenly lit up and his pockmarked face flushed with excitement. Because of my excitement, I dropped the registration book to the ground twice when I was going through the acceptance procedures. Di Xiong noticed that all the guards in the detention center were men and there were no women, so he asked why.
Liang Mazi replied impatiently: "There is a vacancy for a female guard in the facility. Let's replace it with a male. You can just send the prisoners here. Where is all this nonsense?"
As soon as Di Xiong left, Liang Mazi couldn't wait to drag Bai Xiuling into the director's office, lay her on her back on the desk, put her body in a large shape, and began to peel off her clothes. Two other guards squeezed in, One of them laughed and said: "Liang Mazi! If your brother eats meat, he should also give us some soup!"
Liang Mazi scolded: "TMD, I haven't eaten meat yet, you guys get out first, and when I finish eating, you can come in and drink soup!"
After the two guards were driven out, Liang Mazi quickly called him in. Because Bai Xiuling resisted fiercely and scratched his face, he asked two of his men to hold down Bai Xiuling's limbs so that she could not move, and then he got up. He took action, tore Bai Xiuling's clothes, and then peeled them off, exposing her fair and smooth body bit by bit. The three guards drooled at the sight, and no one noticed that someone else had pushed the door open and came in.
When Liang Mazi was taking off his pants, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in the back of his head, his vision went dark, and he lost consciousness. The other two guards also didn't see who it was and were knocked unconscious.
Bai Xiuling, who had closed her eyes and resigned herself to fate, felt that her limbs were loose. She opened her eyes and saw that the only person standing in front of her was Di Xiong. She was surprised and happy, and then she felt full of grievances and said with tears streaming down her face: "Why are you here? You Look! It’s all because of you, they took off all my clothes, how can I see anyone?”
She didn't blame the three guards, but she was angry with Di Xiong. This was not surprising. Women would only act coquettishly when facing relatives. Bai Xiuling subconsciously regarded him as someone close to her.
Di Xiong apologized honestly: "I'm sorry! I didn't know they were beasts. Please put on your clothes quickly! Otherwise, you will catch a cold. It's too cold."
Bai Xiuling said angrily: "My clothes are all torn, how do you want me to wear them?"
Di Xiong smiled bitterly and said, "Then what should we do now?"
Bai Xiuling actually sobbed: "This is your business, I don't care!"
Di Xiong had no choice but to take off his coat, wrap up the girl without clothes, and carry her out of the detention center. Bai Xiuling was like a docile kitten, motionless in his arms. Di Xiong called a rickshaw, got on it and went home directly.
In the car, Bai Xiuling asked softly: "Why did you think of turning around to save me?"
Di Xiong said: "When I offered to send you to the detention center, your expression was very desperate, as if you knew you were about to encounter misfortune, and Director Liang looked confused. When I left the detention center, I thought Not worried, I turned back through the gap in the backyard."
Bai Xiuling said: "Liang Mazi is a well-known gangster. The Xicheng Detention Center is called the 'villain detention center'. Many female prisoners were tortured to death here. You must be new here. Didn't you know that he is a Huang from the Xicheng Branch?" The director’s brother-in-law.”
Di Xiong didn't show any surprise when he heard that Liang Mazi, who he knocked unconscious, was the police chief's brother-in-law.
The gray-haired Di Fu couldn't help but sigh when he saw Di Xiong carrying a girl home, thinking that Di Xiong had committed his old habit again. The former young master Di Xiong often brought prostitutes home, gambled and prostituted wildly, and ended up squandering all his family wealth. After a serious illness, he changed a lot. He stopped eating, drinking, prostitution and gambling. He still liked to read and practice boxing every morning. Defoe thought he had changed his ways and learned to be a good person, but within two months, he had brought back another girl. "She is so charming, and you can tell at a glance that she is not a serious woman," Defu thought to himself. However, when Di Xiong gave him five silver dollars and asked him to buy two sets of women's clothes, he honestly agreed. As an old servant of the Di family, he had always been obedient to his master's requirements.
Dixiong put Bai Xiuling on the bed, covered her with a quilt, and used ointment and gauze to re-bandage her wound. When she was beaten in the detention center, the wound was torn and some blood flowed.
Di Xiong said: "You are bleeding too much and need to use chicken soup to make up for it."
Di Xiong personally went to the kitchen and simmered a pot of chicken soup over a slow fire. After two hours, he filled a bowl of fragrant chicken soup and handed it to Bai Xiuling to drink. Bai Xiuling had already put on the clothes that Defu bought. After she finished drinking, she exclaimed excitedly: "It's so delicious. I have never tasted such a delicious soup. I didn't expect that you are also a famous chef and will be your wife in the future." , must be very happy."
"Can you tell me, how many people are there in your Flying Eagle Gang? Who is the gang leader?" Di Xiong asked.
Bai Xiuling said: "The Flying Eagle Gang is just a third-rate gang in the capital, with twenty-five or six people. The gang leader is Zhang Zongqi. We all call him Boss Zhang. He, Mr. Qian, Mr. Lu, and Mr. Fei are all elders. level, the rest are just like me, they are all pawns. Most of the pawns are kidnapped, and some are beggars. Boss Zhang set tasks for us pawns: we must steal more than ten silver dollars every day, otherwise we will not be given food. If we eat, we will be beaten severely. The elders use the money we steal to eat, drink, whore, gamble, and squander it. But we can only eat leftovers, wear rags, and sleep in bad beds. Every year, a few pawns freeze and starve. And die. In order to prevent us from embezzling property, an elder will follow us every time we work."
Di Xiong asked: "Have you never thought about escaping? Or using other methods to get rid of them?"
Bai Xiuling said: "Two pawns escaped before and were caught and beaten to death. There was a pawn named Lan Jinping who reported to the police. Unexpectedly, the policeman was on the same side as Boss Zhang and handed her over instead. Boss Zhang beat her half to death, and Boss Zhang even sold her to a brothel."
Di Xiong said: "It seems that you are also forced to be a thief. To completely get rid of the Flying Eagle Gang, the only way is to kill Zhang Zongqi and the four of them. Where is the nest of the Flying Eagle Gang?"
Bai Xiuling said: "In a land temple in Huangdian Village outside Jingxi City. Be careful of Boss Zhang, he has a gun."
Di Xiong said: "I will go to Huangdian Village in a few days to settle this matter."
