In the Jia Mansion, the master and servant of the Jia family were a little uneasy: "How is it? Have the defenses in the mansion been arranged?"
"Master, everything has been arranged. The experts we hired have also been hiding in the dark. As long as there is a killer who dares to come, he will never come back."
Jia Shutang pretended to be calm and asked: "Has the guy who introduced you to Ichiro Kawada been dealt with?"
"It has been dealt with. No one will find out about the master. That Kawada Ichiro has never seen the true face of the old slave. Don't worry, master!" Jia Bujia handed the newly brewed Longjing tea to Jia Shutang to reassure him. .
"That's good! This Su Xiaolou is really troublesome. Who would have thought that there are so many masters around him." Jia Shutang took a sip of tea, suddenly thought of something, and asked: "What are the results of Su Xiaolou's family background investigation?" Already?"
"Master, this investigation has really revealed something. Su Xiaolou is the son of the governor in front of the Nanjing Jinyiwei Yamen. Su Xiaolou himself is helpless and has nothing to be afraid of. It's just the person who protects Su Xiaolou. Maybe he was an old friend of his father's. This time I deposed Ichiro Kawada and hung him on the door of Jinyiwei Yamen just to warn us."
Jia Shutang nodded solemnly.
"There is someone behind Su Xiaolou, isn't there anyone in my Jia family? Yu Qin said that his uncle will not ignore us, and Yu Li said that the boss behind the scenes will also protect us. Protecting us means protecting them. To protect their wealth and prosperity in Nanjing City, he is not an easy person to mess with." Thinking of this, Jia Shutang straightened his back, straightened his clothes, and sat down very decently.
Jia Shutang told Jia Bujia: "Just wait and see what happens now. We will talk about Su Xiaolou later."
"Yes, the master is thoughtful."
Just as a servant came to report that it was the messenger from Lei Zhenfu who sent a greeting card, Jia Shutang was very puzzled. Their etiquette department had never had any contact with the Jinyiwei, and he and the messenger from Lei Zhen were strangers to each other. , why did he suddenly come to visit me? When he opened it, he saw that he was bringing his young nephew Su Xiaolou to visit him. Then he understood that it was because of Su Xiaolou. Su Xiaolou could actually invite Nanjing Jin Yiwei Lei Zhenfu. To intercede for yourself is something that should not be underestimated!
"Jia Bujia, prepare a banquet. Let's entertain the envoy of Lei Town."
"Sir, is he the ambassador of Lei Town in Nanjing City? Is he here to be the peacemaker? Let us reconcile with Su Xiaolou?"
"I guess so, but we don't have to be too afraid of him. He's only a fifth-grade man, still far behind his uncle."
"Is this really the end of our feud with Su Xiaolou?"
"When the governor comes forward, he always has to give a little bit of credit. There is no music at the banquet, and he is indifferent. He invites Hua Rui to attend the banquet and play music to cheer up. If the peace is negotiated, she will always give an attitude. When the time comes, she will Make an apology to Su Xiaolou, and this matter will be over. There is no need for the dancing girl, I heard that the governor is not close to women."
…
In a room used to hold temporary prisoners in Jinyiwei Yamen, Su Xiaolou got the permission of the town governor and opened the iron door with a token. The light in the small room was dim, with only a small window letting in some light, and the air was mixed with the peculiar smell caused by humidity all year round.
Kawada Ichiro was simply bandaged by the doctor and lay on a simple small bed, panting. Su Xiaolou saw that he was half-dead and it was difficult to move, so he boldly sat down and was reduced to this. Now that he's in such a bad situation, he's probably still thinking about killing him.
"Why do you want to kill me?"
Kawada Ichiro lay there motionless, without opening his eyes, as if he didn't hear what he said.
"Who is your employer?"
Ichiro Kawada still looked like he was asleep, looking like he wanted to be beaten even if he wanted to kill or behead him.
"You've fallen into this situation, and you still abide by those bad killer rules. I guess you won't tell me who your employer is! But don't you want to know who the person who defeated you is?"
There was light in Kawada Ichiro's opened eyes, and Su Xiaolou saw the desire of a killer. He asked: "Who is it? Tell me."
"How about this, you tell me who your employer is? I'll tell you who the person who defeated you is?"
"The real employer will not come forward, and I don't know who it is."
"That's my business. You just need to tell me who the person who came forward is." Of course, Su Xiaolou would not be stupid enough to think that his employer would come forward in person. As long as he knew the information about the person who came forward, everything would be traceable. Xun, he just wanted to confirm his suspicion.
"you tell me first."
Su Xiaolou glanced at Ichiro Kawada and mocked: "Do you think you are still qualified to negotiate terms with me now? If you don't tell me, I will find out sooner or later; if I don't tell you, you can only live in the dark with doubts. I have been living in a prison for a long time. Isn’t it sad for a warrior to not even know who he will lose to in the end?”
Ichiro Kawada hesitated for a while and said: "The man is masked and his appearance cannot be clearly seen. The clothes are made of high-quality fabrics. He should not be an ordinary person. He is of medium to fat build. They don't want to buy your life, but want me." Gouge out your eyes and chop off one hand, that's all I know." The man lying on the bed looked like he was thinking seriously, and then said: "By the way, I also noticed that he has a very small one at the end of his eyebrow. The mole is not very obvious."
Su Xiaolou pulled a straw from the bed and tore it in his hands. Looking back on the people he had contacted before, he found that there really was no such person. It seemed that he would have to go to the banquet at night to get the answer.
Seeing that Su Xiaolou remained silent, Ichiro Kawada became impatient and asked, "Who defeated me?"
"Oh! It's Guijianchou, who is ranked eighteenth on the killer list and is famous for his use of hidden weapons. After I was hunted down by you that afternoon, you hired him to protect me that night." Su Xiaolou made random nonsense road.
Ichiro Kawada said very firmly: "No, it's not him."
"I fought against 'Ghost Seeking Sorrow'. Before I passed out, I clearly saw a black figure with chains on his body. It was definitely not him."
Seeing Su Xiaolou getting up and leaving, Kawada Ichiro panicked and wanted to get up to stop him, but he was too seriously injured and couldn't get up after several attempts.
"Where are you going? You haven't told me who defeated me yet? Tell me..."
Su Xiaolou, who walked to the door, stopped and looked at the anxious and longing eyes and sneered: "You didn't tell me who your employer was, did you?"
All the information about the trap had been obtained. After saying this, Su Xiaolou left gracefully, only to hear a voice yelling angrily while coughing and panting: "Liar... empty... cough cough cough... empty muzzle... White wolf...liar...ahem..."
Ichiro Kawada traveled across the ocean to pursue high-level martial arts and came to the Central Plains after a narrow escape. Martial arts was his whole life and his lifelong belief, but it collapsed overnight. In the end, he was defeated by no one. Not willing to give in.
The angry voice echoed in a radius of more than ten meters and could be heard by half of the yamen. The wounds on his body were opened and bleeding was not stopping. He was still scolding Su Xiaolou. The guard at the gate cast an admiring look at Su Xiaolou. , less than a quarter of an hour after entering, he was able to make the murderer who was killing people like numbness and unable to get in, this was even more powerful than the Zhao Prison of the Zhenfu Division. I admired him, so he hurriedly went to call a doctor. The man inside felt Almost pissing myself off.
Su Xiaolou sneered, he would not have any good intentions towards the person who wanted to kill him.
Su Xiaolou thought about who the man with the chain was and why he wanted to save himself?
When the fat man saw Su Xiaolou, he said, "Boss, are you lynching me? I can hear ghosts crying and wolves howling from eight feet away."
Su Xiaolou said disdainfully: "Master, do you still need to be lynched?"
"Why does he bark worse than the New Year pig?"
"Maybe you should cry in advance!"
"Boss, what are you doing today?"
"Let's go patrolling the city! What can we do? Let's go."
After leaving the gate of Jinyiwei Yamen, a group of people were walking aimlessly as usual, laughing and joking. Passing by the teahouse where they had tea two days ago, Su Xiaolou could hear the excitement inside.
Su Xiaolou's curiosity was aroused: "Let's go! Go in for some tea and a rest!"
"Okay! Boss!"
When I walked in, I found that the place was really full of excitement. The tea drinkers stopped drinking tea, the chatters stopped chattering, and even the tea waiter gathered around the table in the middle and listened attentively to the storyteller.
What we are talking about today is about the battle between the iron chain madman and the Japanese samurai. In the end, the Japanese samurai was defeated and hung on the gate of the town government. It was also about having noses and eyes. Su Xiaolou was very surprised when he heard it. He had just learned from Ichiro Kawada. Before I could tell the second person about the news, it was already known to everyone in this ordinary teahouse. How did the storyteller know about it? Could it be that the shopkeeper known as "Bai Xiaosheng" told him.
Su Xiaolou came to the counter and asked the shopkeeper, but the shopkeeper hesitated and said that he did not know who the person who attacked Ichiro Kawada was, insisting that he just gave him a random nickname for the convenience of storytelling.
