Chapter Fourteen, Flexible Morality(1/2)

Chang Xingxiu accompanied his fellow brothers to have midnight snacks and walked on the quiet road at night.

Last night, several junior brothers met people from the Dongshan Martial Arts Hall and fought with them. Apart from running slowly and being caught by the police officer, the junior brothers won a great victory and were very proud.

In the past, this was an event where the martial arts hall would be rewarded, but now, the upper class not only did not praise him, but also pulled Chang Xingxiu to say a few words.

He did not tell his junior brothers about this, for fear that they would be disappointed.

Times have changed.

He sighed and thought of his own affairs from this sigh.

He has been in the position of group leader for five years.

In a chaotic century ago, the martial arts school was an era where ability was paramount. No matter whether you were born, as long as you dare to fight or fight, you could climb to a high position and enjoy the fruits of victory.

But now, after the so-called order begins, fairness has disappeared. It doesn’t matter and no background. No matter how good he does, he can only be a deputy team leader at the peak of his life.

Unless something unexpected happens, for example, the children of the director and the deputy director are mediocre people and need to introduce powerless and powerful outsiders to help.

Unfortunately, the quality of the children of the director and the deputy director is above the average, and the one who is the heir is still very outstanding.

He could not be the team leader in this life and enter the core of the martial arts hall.

He only understood this truth recently, which made him a little confused.

Walking into the dark alley, he took out a cigarette box from his coat pocket and took a dot. The cigarette butts emitted a faint light in the darkness.

He thought, is it really meaningful to accumulate contacts among the lower-level brothers so hard?

Yes, water can carry a boat and can also overturn the boat, but the premise of overturning the boat is to stir up huge waves, and the huge waves are because of strong winds.

After all, water can overturn the boat is a lie, it is a boat that is covered by the wind of an outsider, or the boat itself is destroyed and sunk itself.

The alley is quiet, this is a shortcut. At the end of the alley is a street light. As long as you look at the street light, you won’t hit the wall.

He has walked this road countless times, and every time he lights a cigarette and passes leisurely. In this darkness, he has a deep sense of security.

This time he felt a little uneasy, and he didn't know what this uneasy came from.

Maybe it was the passing gangster who knocked down in the alley or left something, which made the alley different from before, and the subconscious feeling was different, so he became uneasy.

He dropped the cigarette butt, twisted the two buttons on his coat, reached in with his right hand, and held the pistol.

He speeded up, but quickly slowed down again.

Speeding up is a conditioned reflex, and slowing down is a rational judgment.

He took out his pistol, prepared to shoot, and walked forward step by step. His eyes were staring at the dark shadows in the alley, and his ears were listening to the sounds in the alley.

After spending more than twice the time on his usual occasion, he walked to the end of the alley and stood under the street lights. He breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that he was overly worried.

The cakes in Longgong City have been divided, and everyone enjoys delicious food in a harmonious way. It is not the era of fighting and killing, so who would attack him?

Putting the pistol back in his pocket, he stood up straight in his collar, blocking the cold wind blowing into his neck, and taking a step forward.

"despair--"

A light sound came to his ears, and the sound came from behind him.

His hair stood up, his raised feet immediately stepped on him, and his hands inserted into his clothes.

There was no more noise behind me, and the changes came from my feet!

The sole of the shoe is not a flat ground, but a tiny bulge.

The bulge rolled to the side, causing his body to tilt to the side as well.

His heart was shocked and he instantly returned to his calmness.

Next to it was grass, and he was about to roll with the flow and hide in the dim green bushes.

But when he was close, he saw a cold light hidden in the grass.

It was a steel needle for knitting sweaters, thin and small, poked into the land. Before this moment, he never believed that what this woman used would pose a threat to his life.

The needle tip had touched his left face. The steel needle was specially ground, with a sharp tip. He could feel the needle tip piercing his skin and piercing his muscles.

At the critical moment, he changed his rolling posture and pressed his hands hard on the ground.

The steel needle no longer penetrated, blood flowed down his cheeks, he supported himself, he was still alive.

On the rooftop of the small building in front of the grassland, Yi Qingqian turned her head to look at Qiu Sheng.

Qiu Sheng stood by the rooftop, and he stretched out his arms, holding a dagger in his white gloves.

He let go of his hand.

The dagger falls under the action of gravity.

It pierced the wind, pierced into the aperture of the street lamp from the darkness, pierced the man's clothes below, and pierced into his back heart.

The man screamed and fell to the ground.

When Qiu Sheng came downstairs, the man had no movement and his back was soaked in blood.

Yi Qingqian looked at the position of the dagger.

"It's dead in the center of the red heart," she said.

"Please hand me the steel needle and gun." Qiu Sheng said.

Yi Qingqian pulled out the steel needle, broke off the gun from the corpse's hand, and handed it to Qiu Sheng.

Qiu Sheng opened a convenience bag and signaled Yi Qingqian to put it in.

Yi Qingqian was stunned for two seconds, and handed the two things to Qiu Sheng again: "Please hold them with your hands."

"It's quite uncomfortable to hold something that a dead person touched." Qiu Sheng said disgustedly.

"Then let me take it!" Yi Qingqian glared at Qiu Sheng.

"I think you are familiar with the appearance of the corpse, so you should not have this psychological pressure." Qiu Sheng said something.

Yi Qingqian didn't want to talk about this topic, so she closed her mouth, threw two things into the convenience bag, and glared at Qiu Sheng hard.

Qiu Sheng pretended not to see it. They were all dressed tightly and wearing hoods. As long as they didn't look carefully, they couldn't see each other's expressions.

He recycled the glass beads and walked forward quickly.

On the grass at the corner in front, there is also a steel needle poking into the soil.

Qiu Sheng pulled it out and put it back into the bag.

There are five such steel needles in total, and the entrance of the alley is the fourth place. The first three are not used because there is no good opportunity. To put it more strictly, it is because there is insufficient information to wait for the opportunity, while the first three are not good.

If the five arrangements fail to meet a good opportunity, Qiu Sheng can only use riskier methods.

"Don't you need to put away that dagger?" Yi Qingqian asked.

"It can be collected or not, and you have to find a way to deal with it after collection." Qiu Sheng said.

"Do you want to blame someone from Dongshan Martial Arts Hall?"

"I didn't blame him. It's their business that the Su Family Martial Arts School thinks."

"What's the use of this?"

"That man has a high reputation in the lower class."

"What can the lower class be so annoyed, what effect can it play? The Dongshan Martial Arts Hall give a scapegoat, and then the upper class of the Su Family Martial Arts Hall will suppress this matter."

Qiu Sheng turned his head and looked at Yi Qingqian. When the other party said this, he was a little resentful.

It's like she's been through this.

Incorporating this information into the database, Qiu Sheng explained: "I know what the lower class is unable to change, what I want is a situation."

“What situation?”

Yi Qingqian asked again, but Qiu Sheng would not answer.

He also hoped to use this to hang Yi Qingqian and let her be his bodyguard, follower and trump card, and it was impossible to uncover the mystery so quickly.

Yi Qingqian changed a question: "How do you know that this man has a high reputation in the lower class?"

"Didn't you follow me last night? I looked through three phones."

"It's not a game, how could there be such clear information on your phone... No need to explain, I understand." Yi Qingqian rubbed her head.

Dialogue is based on information exchange, and does not directly reveal information, but can extract information.

She sighed: "I thought you just took action to vent your anger last night."

"I won't use irrelevant people to vent my anger."

"What about the man just now? He has no grudges with you, and he doesn't even know you."

Quiet around.

The footsteps of the two echoed on the street.

Four pedestrians walked past the other side of the road, staring at Qiu Sheng and the others vigilantly until the distance was farther away.

Yi Qingqian did not change the topic, and she was waiting for Qiu Sheng to answer this sharp question.
