Chapter 92

"Childe?"

Hearing the bodyguard's voice, manager Shen Hong hurriedly turned his head and respectfully said, "young master, why are you here? Is our voice too noisy to disturb you?"

"... well."

Yue Yu came slowly and took a look at the blood and body on the ground. Shen Hong immediately said, "be careful, young master. Don't dirty your shoes. I'll find someone to clean it up now."

Yue Yu looked at Shuangye's head. Her round face was a little purple and swollen. It seemed that she had been beaten hard. Her eyes were wide open. She didn't know where she was staring at the distance, but they all turned into a deep pool of silence in the end.

Yue Yu has also seen many dead people. On his first day in the world, he saw his own body, followed by Lin Jinyao and Lin Xueen, followed by the bodies of Chen Fu and other officers of the first team of the statistics department. He also saw the ugly appearance of boss Huo hanging in the morning.

He still remembers his calm when he shot Lin Jinyao. Although he was forced to be helpless, he felt that he had integrated into this era. At least he could calmly and calmly accept the existence of corpses and the fact that "people will die at any time".

But Yue Yu now found that these were all his illusions.

Qianyuliu's "cold-blooded constitution" helped him much more than he thought. It protected Yue Yu's childish world outlook and let Yue Yu calmly pass the "novice period". However, when Yue Yu faced the bloody and cruel reality, he found that he was still so... Fragile.

This girl with a little baby fat face, sweet and cute smile and a little shy died like this.

Not in the chaotic street, nor in the fire and rainstorm, nor under the formal punishment of the criminal division.

Neither did he die for his ideals as Lin Jinyao did, nor did he die for the awakening of conscience as Chen Fu did.

Not a natural disaster, not a man-made disaster, worthless and meaningless.

Yue Yu looked at Shuangye's eyes and suddenly felt that she was looking at herself. She seemed to want to say something, but Yue Yu could neither hear nor see it.

"What's wrong with her?" Yue Yu's voice was a little casual, as if she were just asking a little thing.

"They conspired with another servant, Rong Yao, to steal the grace key and elope to escape from the house." speaking of this, Shen Hong looked gnashing his teeth. He seemed to hate it: "they untied the grace without permission and fled around the appointment. Rong Yao had already escaped while the guards were patrolling."

"Fortunately, God has eyes. When the girl hid in the shadow of the garden, she stepped on dead leaves. The bodyguard found that it was wrong and caught her on the spot, otherwise she would have run away."

Speaking of this, Shen Hong patted the bodyguard on the shoulder with appreciation. Yue Yu glanced at him and asked, "what's his name?"

The bodyguard looked flattered: "if you go back to childe, my name is Huatu."

Others looked at him with envy. This time, he was remembered by the eldest childe. Sooner or later, he will be reused by the childe. Maybe he can get away from the post of bodyguard and go straight up.

Shen Hong then said, "I found that the grace on her feet was gone. I immediately counted the number of people in the house and the key of grace, but she and Rongyao's key were gone. In addition, Rongyao couldn't find it. It can be sure that the two bitches gave and received each other privately. After asking a few questions to see her reaction, I knew everything."

Grace.

Yue Yu looked at Shuangye's left ankle and found that there was a shallow impression.

After the rise of slavery, how to prevent runaway slaves has always been the concern of all slave consumers. Ordinary consumers basically have no good way, either hungry slaves, or lock the door and don't let them run.

But the slaves were bought to work. They could not squeeze out the maximum value of the slaves whether they were hungry or locked. Therefore, the big chambers of Commerce made an instrument called grace.

The appearance of grace is a silver bracelet or foot ring. You can customize various patterns. For example, Jingjia's grace will have thorns. As for the effect of "grace", in one word, it is a bomb.

Grace is made of special Yao stone. Several gunpowder points are placed inside. Once detonated, it will cause local explosive damage. The damage range is small, but if tied to hands and feet, it will definitely be enough to break limbs.

The triggering condition for the explosion of grace is to forcibly dismantle or reduce the energy of the special Yaoshi to a critical point. Because the placement order of the special Yaoshi is different, the light energy replenisher in line with the order is also required to replenish the energy.

Light energy replenishers are generally adult high instruments. In addition to adapting to large-scale energy storage solar stone panels, they are also designed to ensure that slaves cannot steal light energy replenishers. Like the light energy replenisher in Jingfu, it even customized three stone locks to ensure that no one can move away.

The maximum interval of grace light energy replenishment varies according to the needs of customers. The minimum interval is one day and the maximum interval is five days, but normally, slaves replenish grace light energy once a day.

With the help of grace, the chamber of Commerce maximized the control of slaves - slaves can't escape unless they dare to risk breaking their hands and feet; The slave can move freely outside for two to three days, which is enough to complete the tasks ordered by the master and give full play to the slave's labor force.

As for why it is worn on the limbs rather than on the neck, it is naturally because disabled slaves are more valuable than dead slaves.

The only way to remove grace is to open it with the original key at the time of purchase. Grace is generally replaced every two or three years. It is not uncommon to dismantle grace. Sometimes the master rewards the slave by removing the master slave status.

"The slave risked his life to save his master, and the master was deeply moved to remove his servant status. The slave was grateful for tears and was willing to go through fire and water for his master from generation to generation." this is a very popular rumor template in xuanzhu county.

The reason why this explosive restraint device has the name of "grace" is that the silver blood Association stipulates that slaves can use grace to get help from any chamber of commerce outside. They can eat freely when they are starving. If they are injured, they can go directly to a medical lawsuit for free. They have no place to live or even Lodge.

As long as you wear grace, the clothes, food, shelter and transportation of slaves in xuanzhu county are free.

Silver blood will know that as long as the slave lives, the benefits obtained from man will far exceed the little survival resources he consumes.

Many slaves can live well. As long as they are willing to devote their lives, obedient and obedient, the master will even protect their safety - because slaves are the master's property.

If you have to pursue freedom

"So you killed her?" Yue whispered.

"Yes." Shen Hong nodded and said, "it's an unforgivable felony whether it's stealing the key of grace or giving and receiving privately with other slaves. She won't say where Rongyao is anyway. Keeping her will only make a bad head. At this time, we should cut the mess quickly and make an example."

"Why not keep her for questioning?"

"It's not necessary. These bitches are very smart. Rongyao may have run away now. It's meaningless to continue interrogation and waste time. Moreover, her life may attract sympathy from others. Now that she's dead, everyone will forget her in a few days. They will only remember the fact that there is only one way to die."

Well founded and convincing.

Yue Yu had nothing to say, and finally asked, "don't you have to ask me?"

Shen Hong was a little stunned: "didn't you say that I would deal with all the matters of discipline? You don't like to deal with these chores."

Yue Yu recalled that Jing Zhengwei did arrange it like this.

It turns out that this is actually a 'chore' that can be handled by anyone

Yue Yu suddenly felt that he had little strength and stood in place without talking. After waiting for a long time, Shen Hong asked, "if you have no other orders, I'll call someone to clean up..."

"Wait," Yue Yu asked, pointing to the body of Shuangye, "what are you going to do?"

"... what are you going to do?" Shen Hong asked respectfully.

Yue Yu said calmly, "bury it well."

"Thank you, childe Dade." Zilan, who sobbed secretly, knelt down and thanked, "if Shuangye knew childe was so kind to her, she must be able to rest in peace."

What ghost... Yue Yu saw that the others were moved. Shen Hong said with great conviction: "what the childe said is very true. Although Shuangye plotted to steal the key and escape, now that it has been punished, let bygones be bygones. Shuangye is still the childe's servant and should be handled properly to show the childe's benevolence. Fortunately, the childe called me, otherwise the old servant will do something wrong."

Yue Yu was speechless. Maybe he didn't know what to say, or he didn't want to say anything. He waved his hand and turned away. Zilan immediately came over and said, "childe, some lights in the house don't work. Let me go back to the room with you?"

Yue Yu didn't speak, nodded and acquiesced in her peers.

They walked through the path in the mansion, and gradually could not hear the noise of the garden. Purple orchid whispered, "thank you, childe."

"Thank me for what?"

"Childe Xie let Shuangye be buried with dignity, and childe Xie... Didn't punish me."

Yue Yu finally regained a little anger and asked strangely, "why should I punish you?"

"Because I live and eat with Shuangye, Shuangye is responsible for such a treacherous thing. I didn't find it in time and report it. If the childe didn't come in time just now, manager Shen estimated that he would think of punishing me later." Zilan's voice was troubled: "Shuangye is really. I actually believe the nonsense of Rongyao. I thought he was a smooth talker when I saw him before, but I didn't expect him to be so bold that he dared to steal the grace key..."

Purple orchid whispered to the man who encouraged frost leaf to escape. After listening to music for a while, she suddenly asked, "frost leaf is dead. Are you sad?"

"Sad." Zilan nodded and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes: "she is my best friend. I always treat her as my sister."

"Do you hate manager Shen?"

Purple orchid was stunned, "I..."

"Don't worry, there's no one else here." Yue Yu pressed Zilan's shoulder and looked at her. "I won't tell anyone. I just want to hear your real thoughts. Manager Shen killed Shuangye. Do you hate him?"

Although Zilan's eyes dodged, she nodded and said, "I hate a little. After all... But I can't --"

"Do you hate me?"

"No."

Yue Yu stared at Zilan's eyes seriously. Zilan didn't escape at all. She blinked and looked at Yue Yu sincerely. She asked, "why do I hate childe?"

"Because in the final analysis, manager Shen is also executing my orders. If I don't investigate, if I --"

"No, it's really Shuangye's fault," Zilan shook her head. "She stole the grace key and was cheated by a man to run away together. It's reasonable for manager Shen to punish her. I hate manager Shen just because he won't give Shuangye a way to live, but childe, you won't."

"But don't you think it might not have happened without me?"

"How could it be? If you didn't buy me and Shuangye, we might have slept on the street and starved to death, or sold into the red dream field. No matter what you think, we must be worse than now." Zilan said seriously: "you have nothing to do with this. Why should I hate you?"

Yue Yu was stunned and immediately muttered to himself in relief:

"Yes, what does it have to do with me..."

At this time, the two had come to the front of the bedroom door. Zilan asked carefully, "young master, do you want me to wait on you tonight?"

Yue Yu looked at her eager look, smiled and shook his head: "I'm a little tired today, and you're not comfortable with such a thing. Go back and have a good rest tonight."

"Yes." violet cleverly agreed, but looking at her expression, she seemed a little sorry.

Sitting in bed reading, Qinglan heard the sound of opening the door and immediately put down the book and took off her glasses. Just as she wanted to say hello, she saw the childe lying in bed as soon as he came in, looking like "I don't want to talk, don't talk to me.".

Qinglan observed his words and expressions, quietly massage and press the acupoints for the childe, and then asked softly, "childe, do I turn off the light?"

The childe is still silent. Qinglan turns off the light and lies in bed with her eyes closed. After waiting for a while, she felt that the childe took the initiative to hug her again.

It was like hearing the sound of the second shoe finally landing. Qinglan's heart relaxed and was ready to go to sleep. But when she was sleepy, she suddenly felt the childe's hand move down!

Are you coming?

Finally coming?

Qinglan was very nervous, uneasy and mixed with a few unclear expectations. She felt the childe's hand all the way down, brushing some places that made her blush, and then continued to go down——

All the way to her feet.

Feeling the childe groping for a few times, Qinglan wondered: what, did the childe have this hobby? I didn't see it before

Suddenly, Qinglan felt the childe stop.

Then, the childe's hand returned to its original position and didn't move any more. It seems that it has ceased to be a gentleman.

Qinglan was relieved, but there was a new doubt: Why did the childe suddenly stop just now?

The childe should have touched her left ankle just now. That's where she wore the grace ankle ring. Don't you like others to wear foot rings? Will I be asked to change my bracelet tomorrow?

When Qinglan was thinking, sleepiness came in bursts.

But just as she was about to fall asleep, she was suddenly awakened by an inexplicable intuition.

There was no movement around, and Qinglan didn't hear any sound, but she just felt something happened around her.

She slowly opened her eyes and saw the expression of the person beside her bed through the faint afterglow of the moonlight.

He is crying.

Mingming's expression is as calm and lazy as ever. Mingming still looks like the young master of the Jing family with many evil deeds, but his eyes are two lines of clear tears, soaking the pillow.

There was no sobbing, no shaking, only unstoppable tears, just like a child who only dared to cry secretly when he went to bed late at night, crying so pitifully and sincerely.

Qinglan was stunned. After a while, she realized that she had to close her eyes and pretend to sleep. If the childe knew she was watching him cry, she probably wouldn't see the sun tomorrow.

Just

Qinglan closed her eyes and slept. After a while, she slowly adjusted her sleeping position and let her head gently stick to the childe's chest.

From then on, their sleeping position remained the same every night.

……

……

Four days later.

In a field doctor's clinic in a "Department of Gynecology" in the outer city, a man wearing a black windbreaker came to hide his identity.

The young and beautiful literary and medical officer looked at him, picked up the "medical treatment" sign, hung it outside, locked the door, took him into the inner room and said, "why do you come to me when you have time?"

"I have to come back and see if there are any new arrangements in the organization."

Yin Minghong lifted his hood, sat down and said, "by the way, is there any new news from the Jing family?"

"It's still like intrigue, but before the Jing family died, their petty quarrels didn't make much sense. It's just that Jing Zhengwei is a little strange these days."

"What happened to him?"

"He killed Shen Hong."

Yin Minghong frowned: "Shen Hong is his confidant for many years... Why?"

"As far as I know, Jing Zhengwei suddenly looked at Shen Hong one day and said, 'why do you wear a hat', and then asked Mi die to directly break Shen Hong's neck." the medical officer said, "do you believe it?"

"I don't believe it." Yin Minghong shook his head.

The medical officer nodded: "I don't believe it either. Shen Hong estimated that he was a spy sent by others. Jing Zhengwei accidentally found him, so Jing Zhengwei found a reason to kill him."

"What else did Jing Zhengwei do?"

"I seem to have killed a bodyguard. The reason seems to be very casual."

"He's getting more and more grumpy." Yin Minghong judged: "now the competition for the master of the Jing family has reached a white hot stage. Jing Zheng is not as powerful as others, so it's normal to become grumpy and crazy... He's anxious."

The doctor nodded with approval.

"Does the organization have any new instructions?"

"Speaking of this, I have to mention something to you." the literary and medical officer took out a letter: "someone sent a letter through your exclusive contact information two days ago."

Yin Minghong just wanted to receive the letter, but the literary and medical officer dodged and took out a document: "this is the wanted notice transmitted by the organization. The task of seizing the city of Xingke county has failed. A former White Night Walker is suspected of major rebellion. The organization requires all white night walkers to participate in the pursuit together to avenge the comrades of Xingke county."

"Take your time one by one," Yin Minghong complained. "Do you want me to read the letter or the wanted notice first?"

"I want you to watch it together."

The medical officer handed the envelope and the wanted notice to Yin Minghong.

Yin Minghong first glanced at the wanted notice:

"The wanted former White Night Walker has a hidden voice and medium force. He is suspected to have the" relic of the saint "of the extreme divine soldier. At present, his whereabouts are unknown. The possible areas are Dongyang, CHENFENG, Yanjing..."

Yin Yin Yin!?

Seeing the name, Yin Minghong immediately recalled something. For a time, his heart was mixed.

"Don't be silly, read the letter." the doctor urged.

Yin Minghong glanced at the signature of the envelope.

He was not stunned this time.

He is directly confused.

"Yin Yin Yin Yin Yin"
