After being abandoned, Tofu Xishi broke off the relationship

Huo Yan drank his tea silently without saying a word, so Jin Yu could only shut up in disappointment.

My brother is really strange. He is not happy even though he found the thing.

"Boss, someone in the west of the city committed suicide by jumping into a well. The master asked us to go over there."

At this moment, someone came running over in a hurry.

Jin Yu frowned, looked at the newcomer, and asked, "Why our team? This kind of trivial matter is not our responsibility."

The man spat, "That's true, but that bastard Zhao Sheng said that their team has been dismissed and is no longer under their jurisdiction. The master can only look for us."

Niu Mang's eyes sparkled, "Brother, can I bring some people to beat up that bastard Zhao Sheng?"

"We've only been here for a short time, and he's been causing trouble for us."

Huo Yan sneered, "Why are you getting angry with that villain? You have so much free time. It's boring to just sit there. Let's go and see what's going on."

The group went to the west of the city and saw a group of people gathered around a well.

From within the encirclement, there could be heard the wailing cries of a woman.

"My poor daughter, you died so tragically!"

"How can I live on if you die like this, my daughter!"

"Get out of the way. The government is handling a case. All outsiders please stay away."

Huo Yan pushed through the crowd and stepped forward to take a look.

I saw a woman lying on the ground, her whole body was wet, her lips were pale and her face was bloodless.

There was no breath left.

Jin Yu squatted down and asked the coroner who was packing up, "Did he commit suicide by jumping into a well?"

The coroner sighed, "She really did jump into the well before she died. She was just a little girl of fifteen or sixteen. What a pity."

Since there was no doubt about the cause of death, the detectives did not intervene.

Just let them deal with the body themselves, and then send someone to the government office to sign and seal, and the matter will be completely over.

The group turned to leave, Jin Yu stroked his chin, "I'm afraid the lives of those girls I rescued yesterday are ruined, damn flower thieves."

Niu Mang ate the meat buns he bought and said vaguely, "Yes, yes, women are most afraid of having their reputations damaged. Although we saved them, I estimate that some of them will still not escape the same fate."

Huo Yan glanced at him, "What do you mean?"

Niu Mang swallowed the bun in his mouth, "They were originally going to be sold to brothels by flower thieves or molested by themselves."

"Even though they were rescued, their families would definitely think it was unlucky. Keeping them at home would bring disgrace to their reputation, and no one would be willing to marry them off. In the end, they would have to be sold off."

"The lucky ones were bought to be low-class maids, while the unlucky ones became prostitutes in Chunfeng Lane, and then they went back to the same place after many twists and turns."

For some reason, Huo Yan felt very irritated. The image of the woman named Su Ruanruan and the eye-catching bloodstain on her middle finger flashed through his mind again.

He had seen countless bloody things in his life. Even when he killed the enemy with his own hands and the warm blood spurted out and splashed all over his face, he did not even blink.

At this moment, after hearing Niu Mang's words, the restlessness in his heart became even stronger.

"Give me back my daughter's life."

There was a noise behind them, and several people stopped immediately.

The woman who had just been kneeling on the ground crying, slapped the handsome man next to her on the face, and grabbed his hair with one hand.

The man didn't move, just stood there and let her beat him.

Soon, a woman rushed out and started fighting with the woman, shouting, "Your daughter was captured by the thief and has lost her innocence. Why did my son marry her? Why can't you break off the engagement with her?"

Suddenly, her eyes lit up, and she saw several constables in front of her and shouted, "Brother constable, this woman beat up a scholar, arrest her quickly."

But when she saw clearly the scarred man who was leading the group, the shouting old woman's heart trembled and she shrank her neck.

What a strong and burly man! The cold aura between his eyebrows is so scary.

Huo Yan looked at her coldly, "Say it again!"

The old woman didn't dare to look at him, but her son had been beaten for nothing, and she couldn't just let it go like that. She had to at least ask for some money for the medical expenses.

I had no choice but to say it again, but in a much lower voice.

"Sir, the one who was beaten was my son. He was a scholar with a good reputation. The daughter of Zhou was abducted by a flower thief. Who knows if anything happened to her?"

"It is reasonable for us to break off the engagement with her daughter. Her daughter could not bear the humiliation and committed suicide by jumping into a well. What does it have to do with my son?"

"That Zhou beat up a scholar, please punish her severely, sir!"

Huo Yan turned his gaze to the frail man, only to see that his hair was disheveled and he looked decadent.

Huo Yan asked sternly, "Are you going to report this to the police?"

The man looked away from the dead man with sorrow and shook his head. “No, I won’t report to the police. No one will beat me.”

Huo Yan glanced at everyone and prepared to leave with them.

The old woman had no time to be afraid because she had not yet been given the money for her medicine.

"Sir, this woman beat someone up, why didn't you do anything about it?"

Huo Yan looked back, glaring at him with cold eyes, "If there is no victim, how can you say you beat someone up?"

He then asked everyone, "Did you see this woman hitting someone?"

Everyone was silent for a moment and shook their heads.

"No……"

"Not seen."

Just because the other party was an official, they dared not tell the truth.

It is better to have less trouble than more, and Zhou lost her daughter, and the neighbors are also very sad.

They also watched the child grow up, and he is well-behaved and smart.

Besides, this Mrs. Lu is usually a domineering and unpopular person, so they naturally won’t help her.

It's just a pity for Mo Shenyan. He and the deceased Cui'er were childhood sweethearts who grew up together. The two children were naturally enviable, but they never expected that something like this would happen.

What a damn flower thief. I heard that Mo Shenyan didn't want to cancel the engagement, but he couldn't stand Mrs. Lu's crying, making a fuss and threatening to commit suicide, so he had to compromise.

Although she was rescued from the flower thief, Cui'er could not bear the blow of being broken off from engagement, so she jumped into the well.

Such a beautiful girl, as pretty as a flower, is gone just like that.

I am the dividing line

The group went to a restaurant to eat and drink, but Huo Yan was not in the mood.

For some reason, I felt depressed today, and the image of Su Ruanruan giving him the middle finger kept flashing back in my mind.

The scene seemed to be fixed in his mind, and he couldn't get it out of his mind. What a hell!

Huo Yan just drank cup after cup in silence without saying a word, but the cold atmosphere made the others dare not even breathe.

Niu Mang asked directly, "Brother, what's wrong with you?"

Huo Yan drank a glass of wine and then looked at him, "Tell me, what is the most precious thing in a woman?"

Niu Mang's eyes rolled around, "Meat, it has to be meat!"

Jinyu frowned, "Meat?"

"Of course I did. My wife is plump and I have loved her since she was a child. At that time, all the children in the village bullied her, and I was the only one who protected her..."

Huo Yan: ...

There was no point in continuing the conversation that day, so he threw down a silver ingot and left.

"You guys eat, I'm leaving first."

Jin Yu hurriedly chased after him, "Brother, where are you going?"

"hunt!"

Jin Yu looked up at the sky. It was almost dark. Why was his brother still going hunting?

But he couldn't change his elder brother's decision, so he could only stop and continue eating and drinking with his brothers.

On the other side, Su Ruanruan had already changed to a ox cart to return to the village.

The car was filled with mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law who had just finished shopping in the town.

They were the trumpets. Even before Su Ruanruan returned home, they already knew that Su Ruanruan was one of the many women kidnapped by the flower thief.

It already had a bad reputation, but now it has been upgraded to 2.0.

The look in their eyes when they looked at her was full of contempt. If the old man driving the cart hadn't wanted to make a few cents from Su Ruanruan, they would have driven her away long ago.

It's really bad luck to ride in the same car with her.

Su Ruanruan was disgusted by the weird looks of the people on the road. She could only sit on the edge of the ox cart with her arms folded and ignore them.

Today, my stomach, waist, arms and ankles hurt.

She had no interest in engaging in verbal battles with these women.

But the more silent she was, the more aggressive those women became.
