Chapter 1475 Like a Murder
The girl dancing in the police station compound was the daughter of the mother and daughter Xiao Peng had met at the Moulin Rouge. Her mother was the one who was going to take Xiao Peng and Ka Xin back to visit her, so why was she here?
Xiao Peng could have just stood by and watched, but when he thought of how her mother acted for her daughter that night, he couldn't help but lend a helping hand.
Poor parents in the world, think about that woman who threw everything aside for her daughter, this is worthy of respect.
Of course, Xiao Peng did think that the woman had a mental problem, but because of his own upbringing, he thought of his mother. It was just a small thing for him, so he helped her.
"Alright, stop causing trouble in the police station!" Xiao Peng said, "Let's get out of here first!"
Suddenly the girl knelt down and hugged Xiao Peng's thighs: "Sir, please, please save my mother!"
"Huh?" Xiao Peng was a little confused. Why did it seem like he had gotten into trouble again?
As it turned out, he did get himself into trouble.
He borrowed a police car from Deperan and took the girl to his home.
Why borrow a police car? Of course, it was because Bruch had shown off by driving Xiao Peng's car to pick him up: his explanation was that this was a police station after all.
However, Xiao Peng's car only had two seats and could not accommodate three people, so Xiao Peng went to Pederlan to borrow a police car.
What? This is private use of a public vehicle?
This is normal in Paris!
There was another reason why they drove the police car, which was because the mother and daughter lived in a slum area in District 18, where the security was not very good. Driving the police car there would save them from trouble.
But when he got here, he found that this seemed to be a wrong decision: as soon as he got out of the police car, he saw the hostile eyes around him.
The people of Paris and the police really don't get along, especially in these places with poor public security.
The girls and their friends rented an old apartment, which was similar to the "tube-shaped buildings" in the Xia Dynasty. Each room was about ten square meters, and the bathroom and kitchen were shared - most people who came to Paris rented houses like this.
"What's that smell?" Xiao Peng sniffed twice. "Oh my god! Even when I was at my poorest in Marseille, I never lived in a place like this. Is this where people live?"
As soon as he entered the building, he was filled with all kinds of strange smells, including the stench from the bathroom, the curry of the Indian residents, and the cheap perfume of the tenants. Xiao Peng began to collapse as soon as he entered the building, and the smell became stranger and stranger as he went up the stairs.
"Did someone open a can of herrings here?" Xiao Peng frowned.
He is not someone who cannot endure hardship. He used to live in a small sailboat in Marseille. It sounds romantic, but in fact the space is small, it is extremely hot in the summer and extremely cold in the winter, and it is also damp. But at least there is no strange smell there. But what about here?
The residents here saw them going upstairs. There was a scoundrel who whistled and swore; there was a drug addict who begged the two for some money; there was also a prostitute who wanted to pull the two into her room...
Bruch sighed, "It's really hard for a girl to live in a place like this."
Xiao Peng shook his head. "It all comes down to 'poverty'. There's an old saying in our country that goes, 'There are only blessings you can't enjoy, but no offenses you can't create.' It's a true saying! But now I see I'm pretty lucky. I was able to find that job looking after the sailboat. Otherwise, I might have ended up in a place like this. Speaking of which, I suddenly remembered that I should find that sailboat owner to thank him..."
Before he could finish his words, Bruch pulled him back and stopped him from moving forward.
Xiao Peng was stunned: "What's wrong?"
The girl also stopped and pointed to the small staircase at the end leading to the attic and said, "It's right up there!"
After she finished speaking, she went straight to the door, opened it, and waved to the two of them: "My mother is in there." Then she said to the room: "Mom, I brought someone to help you!"
I watched her walk into the attic room. The room was pitch black and I didn't know if there was a light inside.
Xiao Peng observed the environment here.
This mother and daughter live in a rooftop attic, less than 1.5 meters high. Originally used for storage, they can now rent it out to make money. Living in such a place is, of course, about saving money. But living here is truly miserable: when it's hot, it's like a steamer, and when it's cold, it's like a freezer.
Not to mention the cockroaches, mosquitoes, and giant rats that are everywhere in Paris!
To be honest, it takes courage to live here.
Seeing Bruch stopping him, Xiao Peng asked in confusion, "Is there a problem?"
Bruch nodded and said, "Boss, you'd better not go up. I'll go up and take a look myself."
Xiao Peng was confused and lit a cigarette: "Okay, take her mother to the hospital quickly. I really don't want to stay here anymore."
Bruch didn't answer him, but went straight up the stairs. Not long after he entered, he heard the girl's scream and a few "thumps". Xiao Peng was stunned. Was there an ambush inside? Was Bruch ambushed?
He rushed up the stairs, blaming himself for being so careless. A place like this, full of all sorts of people, how could he trust a little girl so easily? Surely Bruh would be alright?
Although Bruch did betray him at that time, Xiao Peng still really values him now. After all, he saved his life and almost lost his life for him.
Of course, he also believed in Bruch's skills, but he must not capsize in the ditch here!
As soon as he walked up the stairs, he saw Bruch coming out. What reassured Xiao Peng was that Bruch didn't look like anything was wrong.
But Bruch carried the girl on his shoulders.
"Boss, don't come in." Bruch said.
Xiao Peng pointed at the girl on Bruch's shoulder and asked, "What's going on? Did you knock her out?"
Bruch nodded.
"Why?" Xiao Peng asked puzzledly.
Bruch said, "Boss... her mother died a long time ago, and her body is already stinking!"
"What?" Xiao Peng exclaimed.
Bruch nodded and said, "I smelled something wrong just now. I've been to the battlefield and this smell is familiar, so I stopped you from going in. After you entered the room, the girl was still talking to her mother's corpse. I couldn't understand what she was saying, but she looked a little upset, so I just knocked her out."
"How did her mother die?" Xiao Peng asked.
"He's covered in wounds, it looks like he was murdered." Bruch said, "Let the police investigate."
Xiao Peng was helpless after hearing this: "Yeah. This is the only way."
What the hell is going on?
