Chapter 236 The Porridge Shack (3)
Zhu Lu had to bite the bullet and said, "Three days ago, I went to the gambling house outside the city to play a few games. My hands were not smooth and I used up all the money I had. I only have one advantage. I will never borrow money if I gambled, and I would never borrow money if I lost all the money. I would not gamble anymore. Who would have thought that as soon as I walked out of the gambling house, I was surrounded by five or six gangsters. They regarded me as a country bumpkin and forced me to borrow money to continue gambling."
"Did you fight with them?" Chen Xiao was not surprised. Zhu Lu had an honest face, and he was a cripple, unkempt and never short of money. However, he didn't know where the clothes he had found. They were torn and old, wrinkled, and were normal to be targeted by the gangsters.
Zhu Lu said helplessly: "If I were in the capital, I really wouldn't dare to fight with them. You don't know that Miss Hua is still staring at me now, and I don't know if that lady is idle. But I'm really not afraid of leaving the city. Aren't they just a few gangsters? Am I still afraid of them?"
Chen Xiao snorted coldly, stood up, and walked behind Zhu Lu.
On Zhu Lu's bronzed back, there were several scars everywhere, and the bones could be seen deep.
"You fought with a few gangsters, but you were injured." Chen Xiao said sarcastically.
Zhu Lu was thick-skinned, but he couldn't hold on anymore, so he had to defend himself: "I was wrong. These gangsters are a little bit famous and would never be real gangsters. Two of them were first-class experts. I almost lost my life. If I hadn't been to my mind and jumped into the ice hole, my life would have been guaranteed.
Zhu Lu is a water bandit. He dared to escape under the ice cave, but those gangsters did not have the ability, and would not jump in as well. They could only watch him escape in the water.
"Are there any masters?" Chen Xiao asked.
Zhu Lu nodded and said, "Not only those two are masters, but the other few are not weak, they are all practicing. And the moves are obviously rolling over the tip of the knife. The moves are to greet the deadly places. I came out of the river and had no strength to return to the city. I had to hide in a wild dormitory outside the city for three days. Today I recovered my strength so that I could only ask the doctor Yue to treat it."
"According to what you said, you are all outside the city in these three days? Who else can prove it except yourself?" Chen Xiao asked.
Zhu Lu swallowed his saliva and said a little embarrassedly: "Xiaohong has been serving me these three days, and she can prove it."
"Xiaohong? Is it a maid?" Chen Xiao asked in confusion.
"What maid, he said, he has lived in the wild dormitory these three days, and Xiaohong is probably the sister in the wild dormitory. This kid is still happy even after being injured." Yue Li hid on the medicine box and stood up.
Chen Xiao now understood that the wild slaughter was the kind of place.
He suddenly felt that there was an unpleasant smell in the room, not a medicinal smell, but a smell on Zhu Lu.
Where to go to get infected?
Chen Xiao took out a snow-white veil and covered his nose.
Both Yue Li and Zhu Lu were used to his actions. Mr. Chen only used the handkerchief once and threw it away once. In the past, four maids made a handkerchief for him, but now when he returned to the mansion, he made hundreds of handkerchiefs in the needle and thread room to send it.
Through the veil, Chen Xiao said to Zhu Lu: "One of the few people who fought with you that day died, and the cause of death was internal injuries. When you were fighting that day, someone might have seen it. Someone reported to Shuntian Mansion. Shuntian Mansion is looking for you now."
Shuntian Mansion finds people at odds and seriousness, and it would be fine if he just asked someone to ask. But Zhu Lu was originally a prisoner who was ordered by the court. If he was found by Shuntian Mansion, he would have to be punished.
"What? There is still this matter? Fourth Young Master, I was wronged. That day I was forced to jump into the ice hole. I didn't have the power to fight back. Not to mention beating someone to death, it would be a blessing that I could escape at that time." Zhu Lu did not forget to defend himself.
Chen Xiao did not see the guilt in Zhu Lu's eyes, and said, "If you didn't hurt that person, then you were plotting against someone else in this matter."
"Planning?" Zhu Lu was surprised. Before that, he had forced himself to forget the fact that he was beaten to jump into an ice hole. Such a loss of face could not be kept in his heart, otherwise he would not only be tired, but also lose confidence.
Zhu Lu has always been a confident person.
"Don't you already doubt it?" Chen Xiao said.
Zhu Lu did feel suspicious. It was not the first time he had fought with gangsters on the street. He had been fighting since childhood, but this was the first time he had met such a good gangster.
Those people are not gangsters, they have ulterior motives to come to him to cause trouble.
But what else is there for me that is worthy of others' attempts?
Zhu Lu examines me three times: Are you tall? Are you rich? Are you handsome?
The answer was: No!
So why are there anyone plotting against him, is it plotting against his torn clothes or his identity as the wanted criminal?
Yes, it's his identity. He is a wanted criminal, so just push the case on him.
After arresting him for so long, he still found nothing. If he had never heard from him, then the case was put on him and became a dead case and a unsolved case. In the end, the case was left unresolved because he could not be arrested.
But what if he was caught by the yamen? People like him, who bite too many lice without realizing it, might even think that this is a heroic act and be proud of themselves. They shouted loudly before beheading: Twenty years later, it will be a very distressed again.
After thinking about it, Zhu Lu felt very pitiful and wronged. He was even more unfair than Dou E on the stage.
Chen Xiao looked at him deeply and said, "I will come over later. You can draw the appearance of those gangsters and draw as much as you remember."
"Okay, you asked the person who came to paint to be reliable. You won't let me get out of my case, right?" Zhu Lu asked aggrievedly.
"These are not things you should worry about." Chen Xiao said coldly.
"Okay." Zhu Lu accepted his fate.
Hua Jingyao was looking through the bookstore and just sent it, she heard that Ping An and Joy were coming.
Hua Jingyao frowned, and she mentioned Zhu Lu to Captain Yin. Chen Xiao was probably anxious and came to settle the score with her.
Hua Jingyao turned around and looked at the big stone in the backyard. Just settle the accounts, who is afraid of whom?
But the only people who come here are peace and joy, and the quiet and happy people do not come.
Peace and joy are kind to others with a look of respect and humility, and are unable to find fault with others.
