I have ten trillion licking dog gold
Chapter 1358 Moon City
A night market street opposite the main entrance of Jiangcheng University of Geosciences.
Jiang Chen and Fang Qing have already started drinking.
Beer and hotpot are a great enjoyment in life.
A university is actually an industry. Although tens of thousands of college students have not yet graduated, they are already continuously creating value for the society. For example, the hotels, stalls, restaurants, KTVs around the university all rely on these lovely college students for survival.
The same is true for the bustling night market.
Life is so precious.
Life is so precious.
The death of Hong Xiaoyu's roommate has minimal impact on the entire Jiangcheng Geoscience University, just like the death of a cell will not affect the work of other cells. The centrally planned night market area is bustling. When Boss Jiang brought Qingmei here just now, they had to wait for more than ten minutes to get a seat.
The students dining around were either chatting about games, celebrity concerts, or movies. Boss Jiang did not seem out of place among them. He raised his glass to Fang Qing from time to time, looking contented.
"hungry?"
Fang Qing couldn't help but say, Hong Xiaoyu hasn't arrived yet, if he keeps eating like this, he will be full in no time.
"Don't you think it tastes good?"
Jiang Chen ate boiled Chinese spinach and drank beer, looking cheerful. He didn't seem to be here to see his cousin, but rather to satisfy his appetite.
"Wipe your mouth."
Fang Qing said with disdain.
Boss Jiang didn't care. He thought that he was not a stranger, so why should he care about his image? He casually pulled out two tissues and suddenly looked behind Fang Qing.
"sit."
Hong Xiaoyu finally arrived and greeted Fang Qing, "Sister Fang Qing."
Fang Qing nodded.
Hong Xiaoyu sat down next to him.
"See what else you want to eat, order it yourself,"
Jiang Chen said casually.
"I'm not very hungry."
Hong Xiaoyu is in good condition, but he is a little depressed.
"It's okay if you don't want to eat, just drink something."
Boss Jiang’s brother is indeed open-minded.
"Ah."
Hong Xiaoyu didn't hesitate and went to pick up the beer bottle on the table.
"That belongs to your sister Fang Qing. Go get two more bottles."
So Hong Xiaoyu really got up and went to the boss to ask for some wine.
Fang Qing smiled and picked up the chopsticks again.
"Gulu."
After getting his own beer, Hong Xiaoyu drank a glass himself first.
Jiang Chen ignored it and put some food in the pot: "We found the person."
"Yeah, in the lake."
Jiang Chen acted as if nothing had happened, "What did the police say?"
"It is basically confirmed to be suicide."
"Where are his parents?"
Fang Qing asked.
"His parents plan to take him back to his hometown. The school will help arrange it and compensate his parents with 100,000 yuan."
“Your school is quite humane.”
One hundred thousand yuan is not a lot, but the school can simply not give it. After all, the school has no responsibility for this matter from beginning to end.
of course.
If family members make trouble, regardless of whether they are at fault or not, it will have a negative impact on the school's reputation, so this method can be considered the most appropriate way to deal with it.
"Brother, I told Afeng's parents about his online gambling."
In Hong Xiaoyu's opinion.
"well done."
Jiang Chen affirmed, "At least his parents can understand why their child committed suicide."
Hong Xiaoyu drank another glass of beer.
That's what he thought.
Although doing so would seem to make matters worse, forcing the poor parents who had just lost their child to bear the fact that their child had picked up bad habits, in comparison, he felt that as a parent, it should be more difficult to bear the unclear death of their child.
At least now they know why the child committed suicide.
"His parents thanked me."
Hong Xiaoyu lowered his voice: "And he also forcibly returned the four thousand yuan to me."
Hearing this, Jiang Chen put down his chopsticks and said, "What a pity."
With such parents, the character of the children will not be too bad, but there are too many temptations in life. Sometimes a slight difference in thought may lead them astray. Some people can get back on track, but some people have no chance to correct themselves.
"I've been thinking about this. I knew he was gambling online. If I hadn't helped him hide it, but told everyone, the school, and his parents, would he have committed suicide? I even lent him money, which pushed him one step further into the lake."
"You lent him money in order to allow him to continue gambling?"
Fang Qing spoke softly.
"No. I just want to help him and relieve his stress."
"About 130 million people die in traffic accidents every year around the world, and more than 3000 people die in car accidents every day. Should car manufacturers be held responsible for this?"
Hong Xiaoyu was silent.
"No one can guarantee that every action of theirs will bring good results. The only thing that can be guaranteed is whether the action is done with good intentions or bad intentions."
Jiang Chen nodded unconsciously. It was not without purpose that he brought Princess Qing along. With Fang Qing around, he could save a lot of effort. Sure enough, Princess Qing did not disappoint his expectations.
"Go one."
He raised his glass.
Fang Qing and he both drank it sip by sip, but Hong Xiaoyu always drank it all in one gulp, and the bottle was empty in a short while.
"He is your roommate. You can be sad and upset, but you can't sink into it. Don't think of yourself as a great man. You haven't even graduated yet, how capable are you? Ask your sister Fang Qing, how many people has she really saved? How many people has she helped win lawsuits? According to what you said, your sister Fang Qing would have to receive psychological treatment a long time ago. No, maybe it's not her who came to see you. Instead, you went to the Mental Health Management Center to visit him."
Hong Xiaoyu's face was trembling and his expression was weird.
"Didn't you say that the food here tastes good? Eat more."
Jiang Chen took a sip of beer and said, "Princess Qing, I don't mean to target you. I am just discussing the matter at hand. It's not just you lawyers, the doctors are the same. Do those patients who couldn't be saved need to feel ashamed for this?"
Some people can carry it alone.
Some people need counseling.
It has to do with personality.
It’s also about will.
Hong Xiaoyu obviously belongs to the latter.
"Brother, what do you think? Should I go and tell the police?"
Hong Xiaoyu opened another bottle of wine and felt much better. This could be seen from his efficiency in drinking, as he no longer drank one glass at a time.
"say what?"
"Online gambling. There must be more than one person in school who is addicted to online gambling."
It finally dawned on me.
It was not he who caused his roommate’s tragedy; it was clearly the evil online gambling platform.
"It's up to you to decide."
Jiang Chen picked up the chopsticks and scooped up the vegetables, reminding Fang Qing, "The lettuce is cooked."
How ungentlemanly.
Can't you help me clamp it?
It's just pretentiousness.
Are you embarrassed because your cousin is here?
Have you forgotten the history of sharing a bed when you were a child?
wrong.
Not just when I was a kid.
It's not like I haven't slept in my life even when I was growing up. "Eat more."
Fang Qing shouldn't be very hungry. After all, girls rarely have the habit of eating midnight snacks. Not everyone is gifted, and innate advantages also need to be acquired.
Taoist Duanmu is an exception.
But from another perspective, the nutrients required by people who practice martial arts are on a different level than those required by ordinary people, so everything seems to make sense.
"Then I will go to the police station tomorrow and ask them to investigate the Moon City."
Jiang Chen was holding a spoon, helping Fang Qing scoop up lettuce, but Hong Xiaoyu's words made him pause.
"Moon City?"
Why does it sound familiar?
"Yes, it's the platform where Afeng gambled on his mobile phone. I've seen it before. It's called Moon City."
Jiang Chen was thoughtful.
Fang Qing looked at him.
Hong Xiaoyu also noticed something unusual, "Brother, you know? You're not gambling online, are you?"
"..."
With Boss Jiang’s wealth, there should be no online gambling platform that can open a game that matches his.
"heard about it."
Jiang Chen's expression returned to normal and he scooped the lettuce into the green plum bowl.
"I'm going to make a phone call."
Then he stood up, probably because he felt it was too noisy here, and walked out.
The memory is not wrong.
After confirming with Bai Haoran, it turned out that the Moon City that Xiaoyu was talking about was exactly the online gambling platform that Bai Haoran had mentioned, founded by Zhong Xiaoye, nicknamed the Nine-headed Bird, a rising celebrity in Macau and a subordinate of Yu Guangrong, the former boss of the Ho family.
When Jiang Chen heard Bai Haoran mention it in the A+ Billiard Hall, he didn't pay too much attention to it. After all, the so-called new rich in Macau was too low a rank for him. But what he didn't expect was that the other party actually had such "courage".
No wonder Bai Haoran gave such an evaluation at that time.
It turns out that they can do anything for profit.
Has the online gambling platform been developed inland?
Even college students are included.
"Brother Bai, check this Moon City online platform in detail and notify me immediately if you have any results."
"Yes."
After ending the call, Jiang Chen walked back into the store.
"Brother, are you okay?"
"fine."
Jiang Chen sat down, as if nothing had happened, and said with a smile: "Don't learn from your sister Fang Qing. If you become haggard, someone will feel sorry for you."
Hong Xiaoyu looked at Fang Qing and replied without any shyness: "Sister Fang Qing looks haggard, no one will feel sorry for her."
Obviously, he brought up a good topic, but maybe it was because the night market business was so good or the surroundings were too noisy, the brother and sister seemed not to hear what he said and did not respond.
The three of them finished half a bottle of beer, so naturally none of them got drunk.
"Brother, let me know when you leave."
"What's there to give? Just take care of your own affairs."
The elder brother and sister must be responsible for sending their younger brother back to the dormitory safely. After entering the gate of the Geological University, Jiang Chen said earnestly: "Don't let people worry. I'm not talking about me."
"I know."
As he spoke, Hong Xiaoyu looked at Fang Qing, "Sister Fang Qing, I'll ask you to take care of my brother."
"He wasn't drunk."
"I'm not talking about today's wine."
Hong Xiaoyu followed suit and immediately started running. He stopped only when he was a safe distance away, turned around and waved his hands vigorously.
Jiang Chen and Fang Qing stopped.
Hong Xiaoyu turned around again and strode towards the dormitory alone in the night.
"This boy."
Jiang Chen smiled and said, "You have indeed grown up and dare to joke with us now."
"Well, if there's a chance, we have to teach him a lesson."
Fang Qing never treated Hong Xiaoyu as an outsider. When she treated him as a child, she was very ruthless.
There was no need to see them off, so the two turned around and walked back to the school gate.
"That Moon City, does it have anything to do with you?"
Jiang Chen remained calm and was not surprised at all.
"It doesn't matter."
He immediately denied it.
"The mainland is very strict in this regard. Online gambling is extremely harmful. Once convicted, you will be sentenced to life imprisonment."
Listening to the peaceful whispers around him, Jiang Chen couldn't help laughing.
"Princess Qing, you don't need to scare me. I know this legal knowledge. How could it have anything to do with me? Although online gambling is incredibly profitable, a gentleman loves money and earns it in a proper way."
"It has nothing to do with you, but it does not rule out that it has nothing to do with the people around you."
Jiang Chen sighed.
"It's not a good thing for a woman to be too smart."
Fang Qing frowned slightly, and her tone changed slightly, "Is it really related to you?"
Jiang Chen shook his head. "I didn't participate, but I know the boss behind this platform. I have asked someone to investigate."
"College students have become victims. The user range of this platform should not be underestimated. Bringing the rich's game to the poor's gambling table will have serious consequences."
He is indeed a legal elite.
Concise and concise.
There are many gray areas in society, which are illegal but reasonable, such as casinos. No matter how severe the crackdown is, they will always be reborn in the corners like cancer cells.
No matter how advanced and civilized a system is, it will tolerate the existence of some evil, but allowing it to exist does not mean allowing it to run rampant.
Casinos are allowed, but their size must be controlled.
There can be trees around the house, but if the tree grows too tall, blocks the sunlight and affects the lighting, the tree must be cut down.
Bring the rich man's game to the poor man's table.
Fang Qing's description was extremely insightful.
It is not a big deal to plunder the wealth of the rich because they have the ability to resist risks, but the poor only have a little money in their pockets. If they do not even let go of this little money, it may cost lives.
So Jiang Chen nodded frankly and admitted Qingmei's statement, "It is indeed quite crazy."
"You can still remain so calm if more and more people get into trouble, commit suicide, or lose their families because of Moon City... and this is bound to happen."
In fact, she knew that the people around her must understand these principles, but she still couldn't help but say more.
"Well, although I'm not a policeman, as a citizen, I also have an obligation to prevent this from happening."
Jiang Chen was serious.
Fang Qing was too lazy to pay attention to him.
"Princess Qing, I want to ask you something."
Walking out of the Geology University again, Jiang Chen suddenly had an idea, "If I really opened this Moon City, what would you do? If I get arrested, would you be willing to appear in court to defend me?"
It was such a difficult question, but Fang Qing didn’t even think about it.
"As long as you pay the attorney's fees."
Jiang Chen smiled and stopped, "Is this true? You dare to take this kind of case? Aren't you afraid of being infamous forever?"
"Why not answer? What's our relationship?"
Jiang Chen was very relieved, "It's worth it for all the times I took the blame for you."
But before he could be moved for too long, he heard again: "If you are a devil, I will personally send you to the most suitable hell."
Jiang Chen was stunned for a moment, and then he didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Fang Qing continued walking forward without stopping.
"Hey, is it necessary to be so dedicated? Why don't you just not answer the call? Why do you have to sacrifice your relatives for the sake of justice?"
"Hey, wait for me!" (End of this chapter)
