Chapter 149: Pointed Red Lips (13)

It's "the minority obeys the majority" again. I don't know how many times we have heard this sentence.Mrs. Qi also said this sentence when she left last night, and she seemed to have some objections to this sentence.

When Shopkeeper Quan heard this, he suddenly seemed to think of something, and his whole body started to tremble, and he said to the guy in a hoarse voice, "This...is it said by the elder brother or the elder sister?"

"Madam said it." The guy was also a little surprised when he saw Shopkeeper Quan lost his composure, "Treasurer Quan, what's wrong with you?"

"The minority obeys the majority... The minority obeys the majority... Why didn't I think of that! Why didn't I think of it!" Shopkeeper Quan said with a sad smile, "It really is because of the incident in Caoxi Town more than 20 years ago!"

"Back then, you killed the He family in Caoxi Town," Bu Ying shouted loudly with lingering eyes, "Did you just use this excuse to comfort yourself and cover up your guilt!"

Shopkeeper Quan was in a state of panic at this time, and was taken aback when he shouted loudly, and replied anxiously: "This... this is everyone's decision..."

"At the beginning, the five of you decided to let He's couple die, thinking that it was the minority obeying the majority. Now it's your turn, Yan, Chu, and Feng have already died because of this, why don't you refuse the minority to obey the majority?" Bu Ying stared at the shopkeeper Quan sullenly and said.

After listening to Bu Ying's words, I suddenly realized the meaning of what happened before.It turns out that those letters from suppliers have not been the focus, but the focus is on this sentence.At the beginning, the Hes and his wife were devoted to doing good deeds and wanted to lead them out of the days of begging for a living, but these five people took revenge and killed the Hes and his wife.

After they did this kind of thing, they were naturally guilty and short of breath, but they comforted themselves that the minority obeyed the majority, thus washing away the guilt in their hearts.Now Mrs. Qi's revenge is coming. The purpose of the supplier's letter is to let them choose a person from among them under the principle of the minority obeying the majority.

The man who nominally bears the lion's share of the reduction is actually chosen to die.In the beginning, these people didn't realize this.But now not only the shopkeepers, but even we can see clearly—they killed He and his wife in the name of the minority obeying the majority, and now they themselves have to face such a thing.

This is exactly the way of the person, against the body of the person!
The shopkeeper was dripping with cold sweat on his forehead, but he still gritted his teeth and said: "At the beginning, someone kidnapped our family and forced us to attack Mr. He. What can we do? He only has one person, and we have dozens of family members! Is it wrong to exchange the life of one person for dozens of lives, and the interests of the few are subordinated to the interests of the majority! Is it wrong!"

At the end of his speech, he was already close to hysteria, and the veins on his forehead burst out one by one, and his face suddenly appeared ferocious.Although I looked at him coldly, I couldn't help but sigh in my heart.Because until now, he still doesn't feel that he and others have done anything wrong.

Not only him, but many people must have thought this way in their hearts. It is only natural to sacrifice someone for the lives of the majority, even if this person is innocent.But in fact, all lives are equally important, and the weight of one life is no less than a hundred lives.

Those who call for the minority to obey the majority ignore one thing, that is, the prerequisite for the minority to obey the majority is that everyone agrees to use this principle to vote.Otherwise, if the decision made by the majority is wrong, why should the few bear the consequences?
This is the question Mrs. Qi asked at the door of Feng's house last night, and it is also my feeling at the moment.Even if a hundred people decide together, there is no right to let an innocent person die; and killing one person in order to save a hundred people is also called murder!

But it was obvious that Shopkeeper Quan didn't think so, his whole face began to contort, but he showed no regrets.When the Qi family's buddy handed him the letter, he also avoided it and yelled at him to take the letter away.Seeing him dodging, the guy had no choice but to put the letter on the table in the hotel, and then said: "By the way, Mrs. Qi also asked me to say something to you."

Shopkeeper Quan said angrily: "What?"

"Bang!" said the guy suddenly, and we were all taken aback by him.He himself scratched his head a little, "She asked me to say this word to you, and I don't know what she meant."

That word bit the shopkeeper like a snake, and he tremblingly said, "She...she wants to kill me!"

"Ah?" The guy was taken aback for a moment, "Aren't you doing well?"

The shopkeeper was so terrified that he couldn't speak clearly, "She... she handed the 'gun' to you, and she wants to kill me!"

Bu Ying, Ji Mingmei and I also heard clearly.That's right, Mrs. Qi actually handed over the "gun" to this guy and asked him to kill the shopkeeper!However, shopkeeper Quan didn't touch the letter, so naturally he couldn't be poisoned, so how would she put him to death?
We know that the letter is poisonous, even if the shopkeeper did not know that the letter was poisonous, he would not touch the letter.Not only that, when he saw the letter, he was like a snake and scorpion, he walked out of the lobby of the hotel backwards, then turned around and left quickly.When we saw him leave safely, we were all thinking about how Mrs. Qi would attack him.

The shopkeeper Quan walked out of the store, and we all walked out of the store to watch him go.But what I didn't expect was that the shopkeeper Quan, who was running for his life, suddenly stopped and walked towards a group of children.What is even more surprising is that these children are the same ones we saw when we first entered the town.

They are still playing the game of officers and soldiers catching thieves, and the kid king is still busy directing "beheading".And the one chosen to "behead" is still the one we saw before.This child had questioned before, why everyone chose him, and he was about to be dragged out and beheaded?

At this time, he was still obsessed with this question. Although he was kneeling on the ground, he still raised his head and asked the child king innocently: "I still don't understand why the minority must obey the majority?"

The child king was a little impatient, and scolded him: "Didn't I tell you that this is everyone's decision. Could it be that everyone is wrong and you are right?"

When the child was scolded by him, he was so wronged that two tears rolled in his eyes.Seeing this, shopkeeper Quan yelled at him: "Xiao Si, what are you doing here?"

"Father!" It turned out that this child was actually the youngest son of shopkeeper Quan.When he saw Shopkeeper Quan at the moment, a look of joy immediately appeared on his face, and he got up from the ground and threw himself into his arms.

Shopkeeper Quan picked him up and asked him, "Did they bully you?"

"No." Xiaosi didn't like to complain, "It's just that we are playing the game of officers and soldiers catching thieves, and they all choose me as a thief."

He said it a bit aggrieved, but the young age is really lovable.The shopkeeper Quan said, "Then let's go home and stop playing with them, shall we?"

"Yeah!" Xiaosi nodded, and then kissed the shopkeeper Quan's forehead vigorously.Seeing this, shopkeeper Quan naturally kissed him back deeply on the forehead, which made Xiaosi giggle.After the shopkeeper finished kissing, he suddenly licked his lips for some reason, as if there was something strange on Xiaosi's forehead.

At this moment, Xiao Si suddenly said to him: "By the way, Daddy, the aunt of the Qi family passed by just now, let me tell you something."

"She... what did she say?" Shopkeeper Quan froze.

"She said that the Qi, Feng, Chu, and Yan families all chose to let Dad accept the letter. The minority obeys the majority, and Dad will accept it if he doesn't accept it." Xiaosi asked with wide-eyed puzzled eyes. Shopkeeper Quan, "Aunt Qi also said that the minority must obey the majority, but father, why must the minority obey the majority?"

Shopkeeper Quan felt as if he had been struck by lightning, and he asked Xiao Si in a trembling voice, "She...what else did she do?"

"It's nothing." Xiaosi saw that the shopkeeper had a bad complexion, and was a little surprised. "She said that daddy loved me the most in her life, and told me to kiss you when I saw you. She even patted my head and praised me." I'm good. Daddy, what's wrong with you?"

Shopkeeper Quan's eyes widened: "Yes... she asked you to kiss me?"

Xiaosi nodded and kissed him on the forehead again.Shopkeeper Quan was shaking like a sieve, looking extremely scared, but he didn't want to show it in front of Xiao Si, so his expression was distorted for a while.He just opened his eyes like this, as if he wanted to laugh, but he couldn't.

It made one of his faces look extremely strange.Xiaosi was frightened by him, he shook the shopkeeper and shouted: "Father, what's wrong with you?"

"It's nothing...it's nothing...," the shopkeeper Quan murmured. He heard that Mrs. Qi was just outside the store and had contact with Xiao Si, and he subconsciously felt fear.

The extreme horror killed his smile and slaughtered his expression at the same time.This made Xiaosi a little scared, stretched out a pair of small hands to touch his face, and said timidly: "Father, shall we go home?"

"Go home... Let's go home..." Shopkeeper Quan swallowed hard, and left with Xiao Si in his arms.It can be seen from his figure that he has been trembling slightly.And the three of us witnessed this scene from behind, but we were all horrified.Shopkeeper Quan didn't know that Feng and Chu died from the poison in the letter, but we did.

Mrs. Qi already knew that Shopkeeper Quan would not accept that letter, so she changed the form and asked Xiao Si to deliver the message.The shopkeeper Quan accepted it without warning, but he didn't know that the letter was still poisoned—the poison was on Xiao Si's forehead.If nothing else, he would die shortly after returning home, and he didn't even know it at this time.

Therefore, the "gun" Mrs. Qi handed over to Guy Qi still rang, and the bullet would hit him after a long time, just like Feng and Chu.Now, three of the five people who participated in the murder of He and his wife had died, and another one was about to die. Only shopkeeper Qi was left safe and sound.

As one of the murderers back then, after helping Mrs. Qi take revenge, can he really wash away his sins?And Madam Qi, after shopkeeper Qi helped her complete her revenge, can she really forgive him for everything he did back then?
Perhaps as a husband, shopkeeper Qi has done everything he can, and he can be regarded as a good husband.After all, when what happened back then, he didn't know Mrs. Qi.But among the deceased Feng, Chu, Yan and others, which one was not a good husband and father?

Even back then, they killed He and his wife just to be a good husband and father.But so what?Bad things done by good husbands and good fathers are still bad things, and blood on hands is still blood.Ironically, when Shopkeeper Quan was "shot", Xiao Si was questioning him why the minority must obey the majority.

I don't know if this question from his son will wake him up.

We stood at the back and watched the shopkeeper Quan and his son leave, but no one said a word.After a long time, Bu Ying said calmly: "Okay, there is only one treasurer Qi left. We can't investigate what happened more than [-] years ago, but now he and Mrs. Qi killed four people in a row, but there are traces to investigate." Mrs. Qi forgave him, but I do not forgive him."

As he said that, he walked towards Qi's house first, and Ji Mingmei and I followed behind him, feeling a little depressed.In any case, it is unacceptable to me to use a child as a means of poisoning his father.No matter how heinous the whole shopkeeper is, it shouldn't be like this.

It's just that none of us thought about it at first, and by the time we realized it had happened.So what we can do now is not to talk about it, otherwise how will Xiao Si face himself when he grows up?

When we arrived at Qi's house, the guy from Qi's house was in a daze, and when he saw us walking in, his expression was a bit complicated.Bu Ying asked him: "What's wrong with you?"

The guy said faintly: "The head of the beggar in Yanzhi Town is dead."

"Didn't he die yesterday, did you know?" Bu Ying was a little surprised.

The guy nodded, but somehow he trembled again, as if he was afraid of something.We were all surprised, Bu Ying said: "He committed suicide, and you didn't kill him, what are you afraid of?"

The guy hesitated to speak, as if he was engaged in some violent struggle in his heart.The more we watched, the more surprised we were, what kind of secret he was hiding to act so strangely.

"Hey, don't you say we can go." Bu Ying saw that he still couldn't make up his mind, so he deliberately turned around, making a gesture to leave.

"Miss Yan, she was kidnapped by me!" Seeing that he was about to leave, the guy blurted out such a sentence in a moment of desperation.

"It turns out that you are also involved in this matter," Bu Ying immediately said "tsk", "as long as you are willing to identify shopkeeper Qi, you will be an accomplice who surrendered himself, and you can be given a lighter sentence..."

Unexpectedly, before he finished speaking, the guy seemed to be desperate, and cut off his words, "It wasn't Shopkeeper Qi who ordered me to kidnap Miss Yan, it was my wife."

"Is there any difference?" Bu Ying asked inexplicably, "Aren't these two people from the same team?"

"Madam did all this without telling the shopkeeper." The clerk tremblingly said, "All the things were planned by her alone and entrusted to me to do."
