Chapter Fourteen
The rain outside shows no sign of stopping, like a sad girl with endless tears. book
Zhengyao held the old man in his arms and stepped on the slippery path, quickly running towards the inn lobby. After a while, he returned to the inn lobby again.
At this moment, they saw the shopkeeper walking down the stairs, and Yuan Haiyun was still looking for him in the woods in the front yard of the inn.
Seeing Zhengyao holding someone in his arms, he took a closer look and saw that it was an old man with a pockmarked face. The shopkeeper immediately stepped forward with a smile and said, "Young Master Mu is really awesome. You actually let you find him. What? He fainted again?"
The word "again" is a bit strong. This is not because the shopkeeper deliberately wanted to exaggerate, but it is indeed the case. This old man was able to faint twice in half an hour, which really requires a bit of patience.
For this reason, the shopkeeper couldn't help but worry in his heart: Since you are not in good health, you shouldn't walk around. If something happens again, will my inn still be open?
However, he did not know at this moment that another murder had occurred in his inn.
When Zhengyao saw the shopkeeper coming down, he immediately said: "He became like this because I tapped his acupuncture point to make him fall asleep. Brother shopkeeper, I want to tell you something, you must calm down!"
After he finished speaking, Zhengyao's expression suddenly became serious, as if what he was going to tell the shopkeeper next was a very important matter.
The shopkeeper hadn't heard what Zhengyao was going to say yet, but he was stunned for a moment, and his intuition told him that it would definitely not be a good thing. Then after he came to his senses, the shopkeeper said again: "Mr. Mu, if you have anything to do, you might as well just say it."
Zhengyao nodded and said: "There was an accident in your bathhouse. Another person died, and the old man fainted on the side at that time."
"What!!! Someone died again???"
The shopkeeper couldn't help but was shocked. His eyes were as wide as a pair of dead fish eyes, obviously he didn't accept this matter very much.
"What? Someone died again?"
At this time, the leading man in gray clothes also happened to walk down the stairs and heard the conversation between the two completely clearly. He was also heard yelling in shock, and the entire inn couldn't help but be shaken for a moment.
This startling sound made him tremble.
"What? Someone died again?"
After the man in gray yelled, the windows of all the rooms in the inn suddenly opened, and a group of people peeked out. They all looked at Zheng Yao and the shopkeeper with dumbfounded eyes. Their faces were full of surprise and horror.
People are dead, people are dead again!
What kind of inn is this? Two people died in one day. Do you want anyone to stay here with peace of mind?
Even Zheng Yao couldn't accept it. One can imagine what other ordinary people in the inn would think.
"Then...then who died? But...do you know how he died?"
The shopkeeper took a deep breath, tried to calm down, and then looked at Zhengyao and asked hesitantly.
Now that the person is dead, there is nothing he can do. He just wants to know who died and how he died. After all, if the accident was caused by the inn itself, then the inn needs to pay full compensation.
. When the rain stops, not only will you have to pay compensation, but you will even face the inn being closed down.
After listening to the shopkeeper's questions, everyone nodded and looked at Zhengyao again, with doubts on their faces, and they were also very concerned about this issue.
There are not many people in the inn now. There are only about twenty people coming and going. After a lot of trouble, I believe everyone has become familiar with each other. Who is going to die? Tell me. Maybe others have some impression. And the inn
Murders occurred one after another inside, and we don’t know what caused them. If they were all killed by the same person, it’s not certain that the murderer behind them would also kill himself.
Knowing the identity of the deceased, you can determine the purpose of the murder based on the background of the deceased. In this way, as long as you have no major relationship with the deceased and believe that the murderer will not do anything to you, then you will be safe.
This is of course what everyone is thinking, but it is also a normal thought, so they want to know who the deceased is and whether it was a homicide.
"Mu Zhi, another murder occurred?"
At this time, Yuan Haiyun ran back from the inn with his feet covered in mud. As soon as he walked in the door, he heard that someone had died, so he immediately looked at Zheng Yao in confusion and asked.
Of course, Mu Zhi and Mu Zi are the temporary names of Zheng Yao.
Zhengyao nodded and said: "Yes, it was the big man in the bamboo hat who died. He was in the bathhouse. When I arrived, I only saw the big man in the bamboo hat bleeding from all his orifices, and next to him was this uncle who fainted on the ground.
"
"Crack!"
But when Zheng Yao was talking about the big man in a bamboo hat, he suddenly heard a crisp sound. When he looked closely, he saw a teacup falling from the window of the Tianzi No. room on the second floor. It fell directly to the ground and shattered.
And the person holding the teacup in hand and drinking tea to calm down is none other than Bai Rushui!
Silence, deathly silence, and the sound of a tea cup breaking suddenly made the entire originally noisy inn hall feel like entering a thousand-year-old ice cellar. The silence was so silent that one could feel the beating of the pulse.
"What? Did he bleed to death again? How terrifying!"
After a while, the man in gray clothes named the leader couldn't help but screamed in surprise again, seeming a little unacceptable.
But his roar instantly broke the silence, and the hall immediately became noisy.
"No...it can't be such a coincidence! Then...then go and have a look!"
The shopkeeper was so excited that he couldn't speak clearly. After he finished speaking, he motioned for everyone to come along.
"Wait!" Zhengyao stopped the shopkeeper with one hand and said: "There have been two murders in the inn now. Everyone is suspicious, so to ensure that the murderer escapes and to protect everyone's innocence, I suggest that everyone in the inn
You are not allowed to leave the inn without authorization until the government takes over."
"No! How can this be done? Isn't this imprisoning our bodies? I didn't kill anyone, so why can't I leave? I can't stay in this ghost place anymore! Even if I can't walk on the mountain road, I will roll down the mountain!"
As soon as Zheng Yao finished speaking, he saw another big man in yellow shirt walking out of the stairs, and this big man in yellow shirt was one of the seven businessmen. He saw his sharp mouth and monkey cheeks, with a "jian" look on his face,
When he spoke, he was pointing and angry, and seemed unwilling to accept Zhengyao's proposal.
"That's right! What kind of useless suggestion is this? You're not from the government, so why do you do this?"
Seeing someone talking, a woman in red immediately appeared in front of the window of the wing, pointed at Zhengyao and said dissatisfiedly.
The woman in red is about thirty years old, she still looks charming, and her clothes are very thin. In addition, there is an old man in his sixties standing next to her with a thin beard, which makes people think of
Her identity may be that of a girl from a brothel, and this old man is the pimp who keeps her out for fun.
The reason why she is so nervous is probably because she is afraid that if she is greedy and spends time here with the old man, and ends up losing her life, then it is really not worth it. She can make money at any time because she has a body; but she only has one life.
, so she wanted to leave.
Of course, most of these people are ordinary people who have absolutely no understanding of judicial procedures such as solving cases. They don't take it seriously when it comes to protecting evidence and respecting the scene of a crime. If someone makes a suggestion that has no conflict of interest for them, that's it.
That's all, but now they have to restrict their personal freedom, which is really hard for them to accept.
"I say it again, no one can leave without permission!"
"Bang!"
Zhengyao's expression suddenly changed, he shouted angrily, and then hit the dining table on the side with his "Pai Yun Jin" move. After a crisp sound, the square dining table suddenly collapsed and was broken into pieces.
This move is definitely a knock-on-the-mountain-shaking-tiger move, with just one palm, it directly smashes a four-person square table through the air. It has to be said that Zheng Yao's internal strength is so amazing, and Zheng Yao's martial arts is so powerful.
But Zheng Yao had no choice but to do this. He now knew clearly that if he didn't do this, he might not be able to let this group of people stay. By then, if the murderer took the opportunity to escape, wouldn't it become a headless case?
?
Although it was impossible to walk on the way down the mountain because of the constant rain, as the big man in yellow shirt said, once he was in a hurry, he would rather roll down the mountain than stay here. You know, you can always be there when you stay here.
If your life may be in danger, instead of waiting for death here, you might as well try your luck and go down the mountain!
"I'll say it one last time! No one is allowed to leave, otherwise you will be responsible for the consequences!"
After saying that, Zhengyao withdrew his hand and immediately placed the old man on the table and chair and leaned against him.
Seeing the power of Zheng Yao's palm, everyone present could not help but open their mouths and were shocked.
After listening to Zhengyao's last words, everyone subconsciously took half a step back, as if Zhengyao's words directly penetrated their hearts and made them fearful.
The inn lobby fell silent again, no one dared to say a word. To be continued...)
