Chapter 20 Framed Du Huoguan clicked the gem in his hand into the pool, turned his back and asked, "Are you begging for mercy for the two thieves?" Lan Qiaoyan: "There's no such thing as asking for mercy. If it's confirmed that they really stole it, they'll be asking for it if they want to kill or beheaded." Du Huoguan stopped in front of a tall basin, plucked one finger through the basin to select gems, and asked, "What do those two thieves have to do with you?" Lan Qiaoyan stopped in front of him, "They are just two local aboriginals. What relationship do they have with me? They often go to Bowang Tower to sell things. They have become familiar with each other over time, that's all." Du Huoguan held a gem between his hands and looked at it, "There are so many people selling things in Bowang Tower. You are very familiar with Bayingshan. Why do you have to come to me for this? Girl Lan, you are treating me as a fool." ?" Lan Qiaoyan hurriedly apologized, "How dare you! Compared to the other natives, I am indeed more familiar with those two, and they can be considered my daughter's friends." Du Huoguan, who had a blank expression on his face, suddenly had his eyes light up. He turned around and faced him with an interested look on his face. "Is it your prospective son-in-law?" When these words came out, Lan Qiaoyan's face tightened subconsciously. She didn't expect that even this person had heard about it. Thinking of her daughter's reputation, her face became more and more unnatural, and her tone became less respectful, "Prison Inspector, rumors are not allowed. Xin, my daughter is not married yet, you spreading rumors everywhere will ruin my daughter’s innocence.” Du Huoguan suppressed a smile, "It doesn't matter, yes it is, no it is no. Then again, if it is really your prospective son-in-law, the petty theft is not a big deal anyway, as long as the owner is compensated. As long as the owner has no objections, what if I make an exception for you?" Lan Qiaoyan said in an emphatic tone: "Old people's opinions are understandable, so why should the prison patrol take pleasure in me? Although my little girl is not the darling of heaven, she is not worthy of anyone."
Du Huoguan asked seriously: "Since you don't like it, why bother?" Lan Qiaoyan was slightly silent, and later said slowly: "I really don't like it. The gap between status and reality is there. It cannot be smoothed out by the word 'willing'. He can't give my daughter what she needs, and neither can I." Let him miss my daughter's life..." After saying this, he lowered his head, paused and then raised his head again and said: "Although I don't like him, there is something I admire about that boy. Just four words: affection and justice! In life, in addition to facing reality, you have to face it. Keep thinking about it, if I can meet someone who can let me talk, I feel that he has fulfilled me!" Du Huoguan's eyes kept flickering, and he turned the gems over and over between his fingers. After a long time, five words came out of his mouth coldly, "I want to hear the truth!" Lan Qiaoyan was choked, and she really didn't know what to say. She felt that what she just said was from the bottom of her heart. What she said was the truth, but people didn't believe it at all, which really made her speechless. But she can understand it. Her mind changed slightly, she put away the emotional emotions on her face, and said matter-of-factly: "It turns out that nothing can be hidden from the eyes of the prison inspector, so I won't beat around the bush. That guy is the so-called big boss of Dongjiuyuan. , a month ago, a strange thing happened in Dongjiuyuan. A large amount of supplies were suddenly released from Bowang Tower. The amount was so large that more than 100 people in Dongjiuyuan were sent out at once. I heard something strange happened in Dongjiuyuan recently, and the big boss was arrested again today. I don't know if it has something to do with that large amount of supplies. I know that many people are spreading rumors about his relationship with my daughter. No matter how outsiders misunderstand his close relationship with Bowang Tower, I think I need to clarify with the prison inspector that the large amount of supplies he has is not mine. Bowang Tower smuggled them in from the outside world. I still say the same thing, if they really stole the thing, they would be the ones asking for it, but I definitely don’t want someone to deliberately frame it and implicate Bowanglou in any way. " After he finished speaking, he bowed his head as if he had said all he had to say. Without saying anything else, he turned around and left. After crossing the threshold and facing the outside sky again, his expression was calm and calm, even showing a certain indifference. Since there are some words that others cannot understand, she has no choice but to say them in a way that others can understand. Du Huoguan watched the departing figure, the overturned gem in his hand had stopped, and his mind was obviously still immersed in the sudden news provided by the other party. After a while, he woke up, threw the gem back into the tall basin, dodged to the stairs in the hall, and dodged several times to the top of the floor. The elegant space on the roof is bright and bright, and the main furnishing is a desk chair. The man in violet gauze did not sit on the chair behind the case. Instead, he sat on the steps in front of the case. He was guarding a big black umbrella and drew pictures of erotic scenes on the umbrella. The paintings were vivid and lifelike. The desk became a place to place paints. Du Huoguan came to him and took a look at the unsightly scene on his umbrella. He was already accustomed to this man's bad taste. He still remembered asking the other party why he drew erotic pictures on the umbrella. The painter pointed to the sky with the paintbrush in his hand and said, if anyone likes to see it, let them see it to the fullest.
But I have to admit, practice really makes perfect, and the painting skills now are indeed far from what they were back then. When the other party stopped painting and dipped his paint, Du Huo officially said: "Prison Master, the two thieves and the large amount of supplies that Lan Yatou mentioned may be related to the matter at hand and are worth investigating." Nie remained silent, as if he hadn't heard anything, and continued to write on the umbrella, concentrating on his own painting. Seeing that he didn't express anything, Du Huoguan didn't say anything more, bowed and retreated. On the other side, Lan Qiaoyan, who was about to leave the inner city, glanced and saw Bayingshan walking out of a side road, and the two happened to "encounter" each other. Bayingshan looked very surprised, looked at where she was coming from, and asked: "Madam boss, are you going to see the prison master?" Lan Qiaoyan said with a smile: "City Lord Ba, you are joking. The Lord of the Prison is respected by all. How can I see him whenever I want? I just came to ask the prison inspector something." Ba Yingshan said, "What do I need to ask the prison inspector for?" It's obvious why you didn't come to me, and you're also trying to find out. Lan Qiaoyan didn't hide too much, "Didn't the city guards just arrest two people at my door? They happen to be relatively familiar with me. I don't believe in stealing things. I happened to hear that the prison inspector was also here. What a coincidence? I was worried whether it was for my Bowang Tower, so I asked him to ask. City Lord Ba, don’t worry, I have absolutely no other intentions, as long as it has nothing to do with my Bowang Tower." Ba Yingshan's face tensed up, and he smiled and said, "Arresting someone at your door? There is such a thing? I will ask about it right away. Madam, next time there is such a thing, just come and ask me directly, there is no need to disturb the prison inspector." Lan Qiaoyan smiled back, "I haven't seen him for a long time, so I still want to disturb him if I have nothing to do. I'm still doing the accounting over there. If City Lord Ba has no other instructions..." He raised his hand to motion to the door. Bayingshan turned sideways to give way, still smiling and said: "I won't send you off." The two said goodbye, and it wasn't until the woman's figure disappeared outside the cave door that Bayingshan turned around and left with a gloomy face. However, just halfway through, someone came to report, "City Lord, the prison patrol has gone to the prison." Bayingshan's heart tightened and he hummed, "I know." He was about to leave for the prison, but his subordinates quickly added: "The prison patrol appointed a few people to take over the prison, and kicked out other brothers in the prison. No one was allowed to approach without permission. The owner who testified He was also left in jail and has not come out.” Bayingshan's pupils shrank suddenly, and he lowered his voice and asked, "Where is the person who instigated the owner?" The subordinate replied in a low voice: "Don't worry, City Lord, they will be dealt with as soon as they leave the city. I have confirmed again and again that they will never be traced to me." Bayingshan took a breath, tilted his head to signal him to continue staring, and left quickly. The jail in Xucheng was empty, and the scene was dim and uncertain. Most of the cells were empty. Except for those arrested today, there were no prisoners detained here. After a while, Shi Chun and Wu Jinliang's bodies were already covered with blood marks from whips, their clothes were in tatters, and Shi Chun's toes all burst out from their shoes. Although the two men were separated in two interrogation rooms, their attitudes were the same. Neither of them wanted to admit that they had committed the theft. They both complained that they had been framed. Du Huoguan, who knew the confession, showed up in front of Shi Chun, mainly to take this opportunity to meet the young man who was rumored to be pursuing Lan Qiaoyan's daughter. After looking at it, he left. Someone immediately took over the interrogation and asked Dong Jiuyuan about the ins and outs of the large amount of supplies. He no longer asked about the theft. Shi Chun was keenly aware that the direction of the interrogation had changed. The same is true for Wu Jinliang on the other side. Although they were interrogated separately, the two of them knew what could and could not be said. As for the theft case, it was not shelved. Du Huoguan personally took action and confronted the alleged owner personally.
As soon as the guard accompanying the interrogation revealed the identity of Du Huoguan, the owner's expression suddenly changed. He never thought that he would receive such great treatment. In the Exiled Land, Du Huoguan was definitely a terrifying existence. For the owner, this was completely unplanned. Du Huoguan calmly gave a piece of advice, "Is it a frame-up? If it is a frame-up, tell me who instigated it, and I will treat it as if you were deceived and forget about it. My guarantee will be useful." There were no threatening words, but the pressure on the owner was suffocating. The owner's Adam's apple twitched, he broke into a cold sweat for no reason, and he couldn't give an answer for a while. Du Huoguan had already seen the answer from his reaction. He only took one step forward, and the owner suddenly knelt on the ground and revealed the truth with a trembling voice. The owner admitted that he was instigated by someone to deliberately frame Shi Chun and Wu Jinliang. The instigator was his boss, the boss of Qidaowan. The owner said that he originally did not dare to do such a frame-up in Zhixu City and did not want to agree. Later, the head master revealed that someone from the city guards had given the order, and he had the courage. However, the head master did not say anything Which city guard gave the order? His last confession was made to the guard accompanying the interrogation, as if he was eager to confess. Du Huoguan didn't hear it. He didn't seem to even have the interest to finish listening, so he turned around and left early. (End of this chapter)
