When Lexie accompanied Leman's wife to come there, it was already half an hour later.
Since this is the new year then there are very few people in the office, administration, no citizens come to watch the crowd.
They entered the door then saw a guard was yawning, the man glanced at the one who came with a face devoid of energy, snorted at a glance and said: "You are the family of the eman carpenter? Why come so slow? A new year like this wouldn't let anyone else rest?"
Leman's wife wiped her tears, rushed over, took the money out of her clothes and put it in the bodyguard's hands, "Master, how are you doing now, can you let us meet her?"
"Yes, of course you guys will not only meet, but also have to bring her body back home, otherwise you think what I'm waiting for you here for, a new year like this has no one standing guard at the morgue, if you don't bring him back, do you want to get through the new year accompanied by a corpse?" The bodyguard received the money, but the words he spoke remained unsightly to hear.
"Body?" When Leman's wife heard him, her gaze darkened and fainted.
Lexie rushes leman's wife Baim to help wake leman's wife, after a while leman's wife regains consciousness.
"Leman, leman, leman why did you go this way? Leaving us like this, how can we live?" Leman's wife had lost her mind, could only cry on the ground, not thinking of finding out why.
Lexie sighed, letting the good one hold onto Leman's wife, then walked up to this bodyguard, "What's going on, if you don't explain it today, then we dare not carelessly bring the corpse back, lest we destroy the evidence."
Perhaps because Lexie's expression spoke so calmly, coupled with an overwhelming aura, the bodyguard could also observe the words and facial features of people, his intuition felt that this person in front of him, was, afraid that he was someone who was not easy to talk to, only reluctantly said: "The fingers made by leman are not strong, when the panel fell on the son of the Wu family, he said, the Wu family was of course unhappy, wanted the leman to compensate, the leman was unable so of course he was beaten, the son of leman saw his father being beaten, he then had a fight with the Wu family, he was, in the chaos leman was beaten to death. The son of the Wu family was also injured, and there was a family member who was beaten to unconsciousness, so the Wu family now wanted to sue leman and his eldest son, the matter was like that, so, leman hurt people and was unable to compensate, the responsibility of being beaten to death was also not the responsibility of the Wu family."
When the bodyguard said like that, it seemed like the words were true, maybe for him this was the truth the leman family had no chance to defend themselves.
But, as a man of modern times, Lexie has also received a very high education, he is not an illiterate person, no matter in any society, it makes no sense to beat people to death still have a defense.
This bodyguard's word is to scare an uneducated country woman like Leman's wife, but want to fool Lexie?
Lexie snorted at a glance, her eyes looking like knives pointing at the bodyguard's face, Lexie asked: "You said leman hurt people and couldn't compensate, and also wanted to capture the leman's eldest son, Leman, has this case been brought to trial?"
The bodyguard was first glued, asked such a question, then puffed his chest and said: "New year like this, This matter how could my master have time to judge? Are you a turtle to others just like you, women who know nothing and do nothing? The case is wrong with leman, the consequences are of course borne by leman, what else must be tried?"
The bodyguard could not answer Lexie's question directly, it already made Lexie have a thought in his mind, in the mouth of this bodyguard human life is underestimated, is human life considered weeds?
Lexie suddenly felt nauseous, her throat choked, suppressing the feeling of nausea, then coldly said: "You're just a bodyguard, even daring to announce the results of the case without the approval of the judge, her courage seems too great. Who gave you so much courage? I asked if a bodyguard who handled the case on his own initiative was it in accordance with the rules, oh yes, I also wanted to ask, if it was not according to the rules, if it was not, then what punishment should you accept?"
The bodyguard probably thinks a woman can think of it that way, besides fooling family members like this, they have often done it and are not exposed, not that they were already looking for information clearly, this leman was a newcomer carpenter in the city of Phoenix, did not know the crowd, his entire family was uneducated, did not understand the laws and rules, he said, why did a woman like this suddenly appear?
"Are you leman? Leman's wife didn't talk, why did you interfere?" The bodyguard felt guilty, he was in cold sweat, but still boldly bluffing.
"I'm ten of Leman's wives, this is my family, why, can't I ask you about this?" When Lexie heard that, she knew that this bodyguard was in trouble, so she kept asking: "Honestly I'm telling you, we're not just going to let go of this matter, we've never heard of killing people and can still cut ties, if you don't want to get into trouble quickly tell the truth, if not ... We're gonna go complain to Mr. Dexter!"
Bluffing while deceiving, Lexie did not not understand, but did not want to use it, but at this moment, in the face of this suppression, Lexie felt that she had to use this threat to deal with it, it is said that the bad guy has other bad people to oppress, as long as you are more evil than him, he will only feel afraid of you, then can give you what you want.
When the bodyguard listens to Lexie's voice, the bluff disappears immediately, let alone go look for Mr. Dexter, this matter if looking with the origin of people who understand the law, already know there is a problem in this administrative office, this, he was just a small bodyguard, really not wanting to get into trouble because of this.
The bodyguard hesitated for a moment looking at Lexie, then looked at the leman's wife on the ground, "Haiya, this matter is not me saying it, I who is just a bodyguard do not dare to say it, Haiya, but I suggest to you that it is better not to make trouble, I will talk to my superiors, to release the eldest son of leman, this matter ends here only, if you suffer a loss then just accept it, you won't be able to provoke the Wu family, lest you be the ones accompanying the leman!"
When the bodyguard said this, it was sincere, but when it sounded in Lexie's ears, it made Lexie's face look even darker, people were even dead, still telling others to accept, what reason was this?
"What if we don't accept it, you're also the one whose bodyguard can't make a decision, I'll go to ask to see the judge!" Lexie said as she walked towards the gate.
The bodyguard immediately pulled Lexie's arm, "Miss, you don't make trouble again, this matter isn't something my employer can determine. Actually we are also helpless, our employer is just a small official here, in this Phoenix city a small official in this administrative office, can do what? A ploy passed down could even destroy 8 to 10 people, there was no point in finding my master, if caught by the upper party then we are all done."
"Surge!" Lexie looked down on this bodyguard, so her tone was no longer disinclined, "Because it can't defend the people, and twisted the fact, what such an official is also called an official? Let go, I want to ask for justice!"
"Haiya, why don't you know yourself? I.persuading you for your good, I've said so much but you still don't listen to it, if you still want to complain, then what happens later don't blame me not remind you." The bodyguard said that, then saw Lexie who did not want to compromise, his countenance grew gloomy but there was no fear.
He's not scared? Lexie frowned, thinking deeply, what would make this bodyguard so scared? Lexie who originally wanted to ask to see the judge, her footsteps slowly slowed down without realizing it.
Lexie knows very well, sometimes it shouldn't be too reckless.
Unfortunately when Lexie was talking to the bodyguard, the wife of leman listened to their conversation, then the wife of leman realized there was a strange death of leman, when hearing could complain to the judge, where could he possibly be stopped? Seeing him pushed Baim up and rushed to the door in a few steps.
When Lexie wanted to stop him, it was too late.
The sound of a gong rang out from the door, spread far into the quiet street.
Many people who were having lunch heard that voice, could not help but complain he lost his position, could become an official until now, there was a person on it. It's a New Year's holiday, bothering the judge, it seems like the one who complained it before the problem was solved he'll be beaten to death."
Only unfortunately things like this are not known to the wife of Leman who Aru just arrived in the city of Phoenix, of course Lexie who does not know this city also does not know about it.
Since the gong had been rung, there was no way back, Lexie sighed, whether it was a blessing or a problem, which had to be faced still had to be faced. Lexie helps Baim get Leman's wife inside.
After waiting for a while, an official wearing a slightly slanted hat came with a few bodyguards whose faces were unpleasant to look at, the bodyguard helplessly shouted, "The judge is coming." But their eyes were angry and glared at Leman's wife as well as the others.
When Leman's wife was about to shout, the judge immediately kicked the table, shouting at the bodyguard who initially received the person: "Basic bangs are useless, even can't do this well, he said, and also let this cunning woman ring a gong!"
The trial has not yet begun, this judge has given the call of a devious woman to leman's wife, Lexie's heart mocked, that today's problems will become grave.
Sure enough, the next time the judge did not even catch a glimpse of Leman's wife, he immediately ordered the other two bodyguards: "What are you doing, what are you doing, first of all drag and 20 o'clock by using the board, a new year like this even comes to sound the gong, what are your complaints? The matter regarding the Wu family, you guys who hurt people first, each want to complain? The Wu Family did not even complain!"
Lexie had seen the facts turned around, but had never seen anything shameless like this, Lexie could be considered to gain experience, seeing the two bodyguards who had come to attract leman's wife, Lexie, Lexie sighed and stood up: "Master judge, for now don't talk about whether leman hurt people or not, just talk about leman being killed, say, you haven't investigated it clearly and said the Wu family is innocent, isn't this too arbitrary? You investigate cases like this people can't take it!"
"Don't take it?" The judge smiled, "I don't care if you accept it or not. Do you know who is behind the Wu family? The daughter of the Wu family last year, was chosen to enter the palace and is now a concubine within the palace, who are you? You dare not accept it? Never mind that I still want to go home to get through the new year, it's up to you to make trouble where, of course, I don't care."
Two bodyguards pulled Leman's wife and walked back, not how long it had been heard screams of pain leman's wife.
After the judge finished talking he left while yawning, completely ignoring the people who were still there, the swarm of people came and left hurriedly, completely ignoring the people who were still there, there really is no fear.
After the crowd left, the first bodyguard came, "I told you not to make trouble, you did not listen, you did not listen, now if you still want to make trouble about the Leman case then you're all gonna die."
Lexie felt that such a threat was ridiculous, but, if it was an ordinary person, having no background, when facing a person who had the support of a palace person, they were nothing, they were nothing, if they want their lives, it's easy.
The judge and the guards had clearly asked the condition of the leman family, so bravely, in their maa leman and family was just weed, knowing that retreat would defend their lives, he said, if it didn't obey then kill everyone, who else would say anything?
This is the reality, not that you think about injustice, and want to fight back then you can fight back. Living in an environment like this is not easy.
His wife was beaten until her breath gasped and thrown out, she was dazed to fainting, Baim was afraid to limp her feet when the judge told her who was behind the Wu family, he didn't even dare to be here, looking for an excuse to leave.
Lexie helps get Leman's wife, her heart is sad, but she is helpless, Lexie doesn't have great martial arts, nor does she have an extraordinary supply, he said, she was still a weak woman, let alone the judge, and she was helpless against the bodyguard.
Leman's wife only knew how to cry, the bodyguard entered the inner court, not long after he came out with a man, the man covered in blood, when he saw leman's wife, he came out, she cried and knelt she muttered to call: "Mother, mother ..."
Leman's wife woke up, crying and hugging the man.
The mother and son were crying and hugging at the door, behind them was the gate of the administration office, in front of the door was still hanging placards reading 'justice', and such was in the sunshine, those words are so ridiculous.
Lexie sighed waiting for the bodyguard to shake a corpse and throw it out, Lexie just walked up to a man covered in blood, Lexie patted him on the shoulder, "If you're still a man, you're still a man, now go and bring your father's body, we go back and find a way, crying here even blind is useless."
Lexie has no sorrow to say anything, at this moment, Lexie is not interested in showing how fair she is, justice she thinks is just a luxury, Lexie is also not a savior, from which has an awareness of justice, from which she has a consciousness of justice, all he can do is do what he can.
These words had already been spoken, if this person did not listen, then it might be necessary for Lexie to not interfere anymore in this matter.
Fortunately the man looked up, was fixated for a moment, then gritted his teeth turned around and went to lift his father's body.
Lexie's heart that was tense, finally can be a little relieved, a wife like this leman can not make a decision, if this child does not have a sense of responsibility, then this family is really finished.
While returning to the leman family home, Ernie also brought two children who were also waiting anxiously. When Rendi saw her mother and the others coming home, she immediately cried loudly, the wife of leman who heard her cry immediately hugged Rendi and cried.
When her eldest son saw her she was also crying, Lexie's brows furrowed and shouted: "You must not cry, now we are the head of the family! Now what your heart is doing is calming your mother, and also finding ways to do justice for your father. A man crying is a useless thing."
Leman's eldest son had never seen Lexie, perhaps because of experiencing such a big thing, instead making him quiet, he tried to pull back his tears, "Miss ..."
"No need to say thank you and everything else, it means nothing. Now that you tell me what happened, we're just thinking about it." Lexie sighed, she had really thought about it, if there really was no way then she would go find Victor to ask for help, as long as Victor was willing to intervene, as long as Victor was willing to intervene, then there should be nothing that cannot be solved in this Nanyue country.
It's just that Lexie knows with Victor's character, it's certainly not going to be with the young help anyone who is not profitable for him, Lexie can beg him, but Lexie also has to pay a price accordingly. Last time to save Lucas, Lexie becomes the waitress who warms his bed, this time, if Lexie goes to beg Victor, what else is there to pay? Lexie did not dare to think about it, nor did she want to think about it.
"The Wu family was a few months ago hired a carpenter, my father and I were there, my father was an honest man, his work was very good, the price was cheap too, so when I did it once, my father was an honest man, the Wu family will look for us to go fix if any of their furniture is damaged. This morning, the people from the Wu family said that their closet was broken and called dad there, I want to go help dad do it together, so I can go home early, who knows if this happened ..."
"Talk the point." Lexie frowned.
"Good, good." The eldest leman temple controlled his emotions and said: "My father and I were called both rooms in the back, in those two rooms there were indeed broken furniture, my father went to one room and I went into the other, after a while I heard the sound of quarrels there, when I left I saw the Wu family people were beating my father, he said, I was so angry that I fought with them, their people so much, me and my father weren't their opponents so, so ..."
Leman's son recalled the scene so his emotions collapsed slightly, Lexie's countenance completely unchanged, calmly asking: "When you enter do you see anything special?"
Even if the leman injured someone, the Wu family also had no reason to beat people to death, it was absurd.
The eldest son leman thought about it carefully, then shook it, "Nothing special, the cupboard is made of a very expensive Rosewood, inside it is put stuff and messy ..."
"Rosewood cabinets are used to put things?" Lexie felt herself finding something and asked, "What kind of stuff is that?"
The eldest son of Leman was glued, thought about it carefully, the look on his face instantly changed, he was already 18 years old, although not yet married but a boy, had definitely understood things that must be understood. Now when it's reminded in the closet it seems like there's an object, it's like it belongs to a man ... Belongs to a man ...
The face of the eldest son of leman reddened, unable to pronounce it for a long time.
Lexie furrowed her brows, seeing her not speaking Lexie directly asked: "What is a toy ****? Hm ... Things used between men and women ..."
"No, not between a man and a woman, it seems to be used between a man and a man." When saying these words the eldest son of leman completely lowered his head.
Lexie finally finds out the ins and outs of the matter, it is now very clear that leman learned of the scandal of the son of the Wu family, so he was killed to silence his mouth.
Having money and power, killing in their eyes was only a small thing.
Lexie let out a cold snort, "Since we've found the reason, then we can figure out the solution. It seems that the son of the Wu family is a man-loving man, as long as he has a weakness we have a chance."
"What should we do?" If you didn't know Lexie at first after the conversation, your eldest son has a sense of admiration for Lexie.
"Find proof! Then give the enemy a fatal blow!" Lexi glanced at leman's wife who was still crying, "Now comfort your mother well, take care of your father's funeral, then pretend to compromise, show no resistance, let the enemy off guard and not be wary, then you can secretly follow the son of the Wu family."
Leman's eldest son nodded, growing more and more amazed at Lexie.
Having plans to deal with the matter, Lexie feels in having to leave room for the leman family to overcome their grief, Lexie calls Ernie and Lucas to return home.
Along the way, Ernie and Lucas' mood was heavy, especially Ernie could not help but cry, "Leman's wife is so pitiful, in this day and age, poor people's lives are really not lives, I used to have an older brother, because it was poor, my brother was sold to a rich family to become a slave, after two months he was killed alive for making a mistake, he signed a body selling contract, he said, his life belongs to another family, beaten to death we can't even complain at all."
Lexie listened, did not express her opinion, but could not help but sigh, today, it seems that Lexie has already sighed far more in this year. He is very helpless, against this social system is also helpless, human lives can be bought and sold as goods, which can be measured by money.
But what Lexie can do, at least for now she can't do anything.
"Sorry, is this the residence of lord Genji?" They had just walked to the front door already seeing a middle-aged man standing guard at the door, when they saw Lexie and the others in such a respectful and charming manner.
Lexie smiled flatly after Genji challenged the Heaven pavilion, there was finally the first person to look for him here, this is very good, really good, at least Lexie could rely on her ability to step by step into a position where no one could crack down on her at will.
