Eight days later.
Jinghu Meng Mansion.
"Young master, we have also copied a copy of the case file from the Yuyang Palace after the case was closed for our Meng family." Qian Fang brought the thick twelve case files, "I have brought them all."
"Uncle Qian, hurry up and leave the file here," Meng Chuan nodded.
"Okay." Qian Fang left the thick file there and took his leave.
Meng Chuan picked up the top book and started flipping through it, briefly describing the process at the beginning.
Eight year old child Tong Tiesheng wanted to save his sister, so he begged Zhou Qian. Zhou Qian was blocked by his father Zhou He and was unable to go out for rescue. He sent Tie Sheng to beg his senior brother Meng Chuan. Meng Chuan and Zhou Qian had a good relationship and intervened in this matter. Yan Jin intervened in this matter out of righteous indignation
After learning about this matter, Zhou He took his son to the Meng Mansion to apologize. Meng Dajiang was enraged, and Meng Chuan helped to plead and spare his own junior brother
"In this file, there are only a few sentences, but it portrays my friendship with Zhou Qian very well, as if because of him, I went to save someone. I also pleaded for his mercy and asked my father to spare them." Meng Chuan chuckled softly, "Zhou He is quite clever. He should try to be close to my Meng family, probably afraid of retaliation from the Bai family."
He can fully understand.
How frightened an ordinary merchant family is when faced with the divine and demonic family "Bai Family". So find ways to guide, such as through the testimony of the Red Rain siblings, such as when Zhou He answers the interrogation of the Yuyang Palace... There is no need to lie, just a slight change in focus. It can make outsiders think that Meng Chuan and Zhou Qian have an extraordinary friendship.
The Bai family may also be wary.
Because of this matter, Meng Xiangu is the most furious! The Bai family is unwilling to provoke the Meng family again.
A god and demon with only six or seven years of lifespan left... No one wants to really fight.
When it was discovered that Meng Chuan and Zhou Qian had a deep friendship, the Bai family no longer wanted to deal with the Zhou family. Because dealing with the Zhou family is not beneficial, it's just venting anger, and it may actually anger Meng Chuan and the Meng family.
So the Zhou family escaped a disaster through this.
"Zhou He of the Zhou family has some tricks, but it's also a bit sad." Meng Chuan saw at a glance the dangerous situation facing the other party. One step forward was a steep cliff, and one step back was also an bottomless abyss! The Bai family, Meng family, Black Wolf gang... No one in the Zhou family can afford to offend them, as they can easily fall to pieces.
"According to the records in the file, five members of the Black Wolf Gang in the Xianshi Garden were found to be related to the Tianyao Gate. Three of these five members were captured alive, one went missing, and one committed suicide. According to the separate interrogations of these three members' confessions, the Black Wolf Gang is innocent."
Meng Chuan is not strange.
There is no need for the Black Wolf Gang to collude with the Heavenly Demon Sect. Because of collusion, if discovered, one will undoubtedly die.
"Capturing all the high-ranking members of the Black Wolf Gang and exploring their internal strength, there is no one practicing demonic methods. After separate interrogation... it is determined that the Black Wolf Gang is indeed innocent."
"Due to many violations of court laws by the Black Wolf Gang, the gang leader Liu Chang was sentenced to go to Qinyang Pass, join the brave death army, and serve in the military for three years. Vice gang leader Cong You was sentenced to ten years of hard labor..."
Meng Chuan looked at it and shook his head gently. "This Black Wolf Gang has no connection with the Tianyao Gate, but this time we have investigated thoroughly and found many things. Naturally, none of the leaders can escape."
The Black Wolf Gang is quite unjustified.
In a gang like this, there are many local ruffians and hooligans among the followers. Even if the gang strictly rules, there will still be various violations of the law by the local ruffians and hooligans below.
This time it angered the Meng family and the Yuyang Palace. Meng Chuan and Yan Jin were both seriously injured... almost all of them could have died here at the strongman of the Heavenly Demon Sect. So the Black Wolf Gang naturally had to bear the blame, but the verdict was not too heavy.
"These divine and demonic families turn their backs whenever they say they turn their backs. As a dog for so many years, they still push me out. Fortunately, I have no leakage strength and have been sentenced to go to Qinyang Pass to die." Liu Chang has already been escorted to Qinyang Pass, which is just over 180 miles away from Dongning Prefecture. Almost all ordinary military service in Dongning Prefecture goes there.
Liu Chang still has a hint of happiness at this moment.
"Fortunately, I killed Ah Quan. No one knew that I had long suspected Xianshi Yuan," Liu Chang said silently, "allowing me to escape this deadly calamity."
On the way to Qinyang Pass, he was still somewhat fortunate.
"Three years later, I will come back." Liu Chang turned around to take a look at the city of Dongning, and the soldiers and guards responsible for escorting him were also quite polite. After all, the leader of the Black Wolf Gang was also an expert at the level of no leakage.
Meng Chuan sat in the martial arts training ground and flipped through the files of the Bai family.
The Black Wolf Gang is innocent, and the White family is even more innocent. But because the territory controlled by the Bai family has turned into a nest of the Heavenly Demon Sect, the Bai family cannot shirk its responsibility. Due to the huge punishment from the Yuyang Palace, the high-level members of the Black Wolf Gang and several white family members in the Black Wolf Gang were all sentenced to punishment. He also fined a full 500000 taels of silver, causing great pain for the Bai family.
"And they too." Meng Chuan continued flipping through the files.
The file records many people.
Recorded the intelligence of those women in Xianshi Garden.
"So it's all true."
"These women have already signed contracts one by one, and still have to return to the Black Wolf Gang for training. In the future, they will have to go to brothels and kilns." Meng Chuan shook his head. The Black Wolf Gang did not disperse, and the Bai family arranged for someone to take control of the Black Wolf Gang, continuing to manage many things. The signed contract of sale is protected by law.
Meng Chuan looked at his face and said, "Those who were forcibly abducted mostly voluntarily sold themselves to the gang again?"
Gang forced looting is mostly for a reason, such as in cases like Hongyu where the father owes a huge debt! Take it directly to offset the debt.
Now it has been released back
What should I do if I haven't paid the debt yet?
If you can't pay off your debts, money will roll over and you will only owe more and more,. Ultimately, they were forced to voluntarily sell themselves. Even 'Red Rain', because the Black Wolf Gang was really scared, voluntarily tore up the IOU and wrote it off. Only then did their family temporarily escape this calamity. But the father of the Hongyu siblings... that rotten gambler, if he continues to gamble, he will eventually pit his own child again.
"Sometimes, it's impossible to save." Meng Chuan looked at the text in the file, as if seeing women walking towards the Xianshi Garden again.
"How could it be like this?"
Meng Chuan's heart was filled with frustration as he watched, unable to save, as if trapped in a quagmire.
Bang, Meng Chuan threw away the file and walked straight out.
"Achuan, have you had lunch?" Liu Qiyue shouted as she saw Meng Chuan's back.
"I'm going out for a walk," Meng Chuan said.
"I'm still out at noon." Liu Qiyue muttered a little before returning to the hall and having dinner with Liu Yebai and Meng Dajiang. Meng Dajiang smiled and said, "It's better for him to go out and relax."
Meng Chuan is indeed very frustrated.
Zhou He is clever and cunning, he just smiled at it.
The ending of Liu Chang, the leader of the Black Wolf Gang, he did not sympathize.
But those women, especially those who were imprisoned and rescued, were not forcibly abducted this time, but could only walk towards that quagmire one by one.
"How could this world be like this?" Meng Chuan murmured and suddenly saw a noodle shop ahead. At noon, there were many guests sitting inside the noodle shop.
"Come, have a taste, is it fragrant?" A couple with a child, the father handed the broken white Mantou to his own doll, who grabbed it and chewed it, nodded: "It's really fragrant."
The couple looked at their son and smiled happily.
Both of them were dirty and had rough fingers, clearly doing rough work. But at this moment, the smile is really bright.
At this moment, Meng Chuan was stunned by the couple's smile as they looked at their child.
"Come, take a sip." Next to the couple, there were four shirtless men with shiny skin and sweat, holding large bowls of wine and chatting loudly. The hardships and tiredness of working are completely forgotten.
"Let's finish our meal quickly. After finishing, we'll go find your dad." An old man with a female doll was also eating noodle soup, and the doll nodded with hopeful eyes. "Hmm, go find dad."
Laughter, conversation, and hopeful gazes
Look at all of this.
Meng Chuan felt his heart suddenly brighten up a lot.
