Qin Tao gave an order, and more than a dozen police officers rushed out together, taking the lead and not falling behind.
The reason for this is that on the one hand, Qin Tao is a member of the Six Gates, and everyone wants to show off in front of him; on the other hand, they all think that they have a large number of people here, while the private salt dealer is alone, so they greatly underestimated the possibility of catching him. Difficulty of catching.
In comparison, Xiang Nan was the last one to rush out, and he didn't bother to rush forward to grab the position.
Because he knew in his heart that even if the salt dealer was caught today, Qin Tao would be the first to take credit, and no one else would be able to snatch him away.
Moreover, others are vying to make meritorious deeds in order to transfer the six doors.
Xiang Nan, however, has no interest in the Six Doors. As an errand, he has to listen to orders and announcements, so he has no freedom at all.
In the future, he wants to travel around the world and obtain secrets from the major martial arts sects.
Working as a 6-door errand has no freedom at all, so it is naturally not his choice.
Therefore, unlike others, he worked hard to perform and did not even show 10% of his strength.
…
Seeing the police officers rushing out together, the owner of Fukelai Restaurant was so frightened that his face turned pale, his legs became weak, and he collapsed directly to the ground.
When the private salt dealer saw this, he did not just surrender. Instead, he pulled out two daggers from his arms and started fighting with the police officers.
He was short and thin, with an unspectacular appearance, but he was surprisingly good at martial arts. His two daggers flew up and down, not only keeping the detectives away, but he stabbed several people in a matter of seconds.
No wonder.
These agents are basically the same as Xing Yusen and Yan Xiaoliu, they all have little effort in their bodies. It's okay to scare ordinary people with a knife, but it won't work when you encounter martial arts masters.
Therefore, more than a dozen police officers rounded up the illegal salt dealers, but they were treated as if they were in no one's land, beaten and completely defeated.
Seeing this, Qin Tao took the crossbow from his waist, put on the arrow feathers, and shot out an arrow.
Xiang Nan watched six directions and listened in all directions. Naturally, he knew that there was a crossbow arrow shooting out from behind, and he immediately slashed at the salt dealer.
Seeing how powerful he was, the private salt dealer didn't dare to resist, so he quickly stepped aside. There was a pop, then blood burst out, and wailing suddenly began.
It turned out that it was a good thing that he didn't dodge, but he just hit the arrow when he dodged. The arrow hit his right arm, instantly crippling one of his arms.
When the other detectives saw him, their morale immediately increased and they took the opportunity to attack.
The salt dealer only had one left arm left, and his strength was greatly reduced. After blocking for a few times, he finally couldn't resist and was subdued by the police together.
…
"Humph, your martial arts are pretty good. Where do you rank in the salt gang?" Qin Tao walked up and asked the salt dealer.
"Bah~" Although the salt dealer was subdued, he was still dissatisfied. He looked at Qin Tao and spat fiercely.
When the old policeman from Shibalipu saw this, he immediately hit him on the waist with a knife. The pain made the private salt dealer turn pale, "You have been arrested, I advise you to be honest, otherwise you will suffer a lot. "
"Take him back to the prison and I will interrogate him carefully." Qin Tao nodded and immediately ordered.
"What about him~" Yan Xiaoliu pointed at the owner of Fuke Lai Restaurant and said.
"Let magistrate Lou handle such a small matter." Qin Tao said nonchalantly, escorting the private salt dealer back to the prison.
When Yan Xiaoliu saw this, he quickly locked up the boss of Fu Ke Lai and took him to the Yamen.
It doesn’t matter if it doesn’t have chicken, duck, or fish. Although he has no share in the illegal salt trade, catching someone buying illegal salt can be regarded as his contribution.
"Wang Fu, you dare to buy illegal salt, and everyone gets the stolen goods, what else do you have to say?" Lou Zhixian shouted.
"Sir, I've been fooled by lard. I shouldn't be greedy for cheap and buy private salt. I know my fault, so I beg you to be merciful!" said the boss of Fu Ke Lai, kowtowing repeatedly.
"Come on, pull him down and beat him with twenty big boards, then wear shackles and chains, and show him at the yamen gate for ten days as a warning to others." Lou Zhixian immediately judged.
"Spare your life, Master, spare your life!" When the boss of Fukelai heard this, he was so frightened that he almost fainted on the spot.
It was now a scorching hot day, and he had been paraded in public for ten days at the yamen gate, and the sun had burned him to death. What's more, it's really embarrassing to show off in public.
But Lou Zhixian must strictly enforce the law and did not listen to him at all. Therefore, he had no choice but to be pulled down to be beaten with a plank, and then put in shackles to show to the public, which was extremely painful.
…
In the prison, Qin Tao was also leading people to extract confessions from private salt dealers.
The private salt dealer was quite stubborn and refused to reveal the distributor.
"Okay, you can be tough." Qin Tao sneered, "It depends on whether your bones are tough or my torture tools are tough."
After saying that, he ordered people to whip him with a whip and burn him with a soldering iron, which made Yan Xiaoliu's face turn blue.
Xiang Nan didn't care. Over the years, countless people had died at his hands, let alone this little punishment.
In his opinion, Qin Tao didn't even know how to interrogate.
When interrogating prisoners, the focus is always on attacking the mind first, followed by attacking the body. Blind torture can only lead to inferiority. This is basically of little use to the die-hards who are determined to die.
Sure enough, despite Qin Tao's various tortures, the private salt dealer was tortured until he was reduced to a human form, but he never let go. This made Qin Tao very angry.
It seems that if the beating continues, the private salt dealer will be beaten to death. He could only temporarily stop the torture, ask the doctor to treat his injuries, and then continue tomorrow.
Xiang Nan and others then exited the prison and went home.
After going out, Yan Xiaoliu vomited at the corner of the street.
He has been a police officer for half a year. He is only responsible for patrolling the streets, and there are only a few people.
This was the first time he saw torture. The bloody and miserable scene was a huge shock to him.
"Brother Li, am I too useless?" Yan Xiaoliu said feeling very embarrassed after vomiting.
No one else did anything, but he vomited all over himself, which was really embarrassing.
"No, just get used to it." Xiang Nan waved his hand and said, "But, Xiaoliu, I hope you don't get used to it."
"Why?" Yan Xiaoliu was a little confused.
"Because you vomited because you were soft-hearted and had sympathy for even the prisoners. But when you didn't vomit, those prisoners were no longer human in your eyes. You watched them being beaten. "It's like watching a chicken being slaughtered and a fish being slaughtered, so why do you still vomit?" Xiang Nan explained, "Once the heart is hardened, it will never soften again."
In the past, he didn't even dare to kill a chicken, but now he can kill nearly a thousand people with his own hands.
Yan Xiaoliu listened, but he seemed to understand.
…
After returning home, after Xiang Nan had dinner, he went to the courtyard to practice martial arts.
He felt a little uneasy in his heart, and this uneasiness made him only able to relieve it by keeping moving.
Xiang Nan knew that this was the premonition inherited from Fang Zhanbo at work.
Tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, Pinggu might come to rob the prison, and his life might be in danger.
Pinggu Yidianhong is known as the number one swordsman of the evil sect. He has superb swordsmanship and can cut off the wings of flies with one sword, which even shocked Bai Zhantang.
If he hadn't been distracted from dealing with Guo Furong and Bai Zhantang took the opportunity to hit his acupoints, he would have destroyed Tongfu Inn with his martial arts.
That's why Xiang Nan had a premonition.
