Chapter 303: The Dead
The rain was still falling outside, but not as heavy as it had been when they had spent the evening. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
The dull raindrops pounded on the window lattice, and the sound of crackling made the room quieter.
When Holly returned, her clothes were almost wet, but her expression was angry and a little faintly excited.
"It's just a beast, it's not as good as a beast!" Holly began to curse as soon as she entered the house.
Seeing that she was half wet, Wu Chefu and Luo Xu avoided the door.
Holly changed out of her half-wet coat while telling Mu Jin what she had seen.
"Lady, you don't even know what the slave and maid have seen! ā
"Haven't you already finished venting, say slowly, what's going on?" Mu Jin saw her pretty face with anger, her willow eyebrows were upside down, and she patted her hand to comfort her.
Holly's expression really eased a lot.
"It's still a lady who understands slaves and maids!" she pursed her lips, "The slave and maid sneaked into the backyard, uncovered the tiles on the roof and looked at them, and saw ............"
Although he had already let out a bad breath, Holly's face couldn't help but turn white when he said this.
"I saw three men bullying a little girl! The little girl's face was swollen and her clothes were torn.........
Yingniang couldn't help but exclaim, her face pale.
The faces of the coachman and Luo Xu at the door were also a little ugly.
Anyone who hears such a thing probably can't bear it.
The smile on Mu Jin's face also disappeared, "How did you do it?"
Holly raised her eyebrows, "The slave went in with her face covered, beat up the four beasts that were inferior to pigs and dogs, and then stripped them naked and threw them out of the inn through the wall." ā
Holly scratched her head at this, "By the way, those three men are the ones who sat in the center of the hall when we entered the inn. ā
Because the eyes of those people who looked at her and the lady at that time were annoying, Holly had some impressions of them.
Ying Niang's hand that had been covering her mouth finally let go, and she couldn't help but give Holly a thumbs up, "This kind of beast should make them discredited and spurned by everyone." ā
Holly looked at Mu Jin with a smile, blinking her eyes with a praising expression.
Mu Jin's brows furrowed slightly.
"Lady, did the slave do something inappropriate?" Seeing that Mu Jin didn't praise her, Holly asked in a low voice.
Mu Jin shook his head, "No, you did a good job!"
Holly's mouth cracked, and she looked at Mu Jin suspiciously, "Why does that lady look unhappy?"
Mu Jin thought for a moment, "I remember when we came last night, there seemed to be five people sitting at that table!
Is there five of them? Holly turned her head blankly to look at Yingniang.
"It's five, that's right!" Ying Niang nodded, she had been taking care of the restaurant's business for many years, and she was very sensitive to the number of people, appearance, and dress.
Holly scratched her head, "But there are only three men in that room that the slave maid saw, maybe those two people have some conscience, so they didn't go!"
Mu Jin smiled and was noncommittal, "Since you have cleaned up those people, why are you still so angry when you come back?"
Holly grew up with her since she was a child, and Mu Jin knows her character best.
When she entered the house just now, it was clear that she was still on fire and didn't vent out.
Holly's face immediately sank, "It's not those three beasts who are angry with the slave, it's the innkeeper who is angry." ā
"Do you know who the bullied person is? It's the innkeeper's daughter. ā
Yingniang couldn't help but let out a low cry in surprise, and both Wu Chefu and Luo Xu turned their heads in surprise.
Especially the Wu Che Driver, he remembered the first time he went out to investigate, the shopkeeper's face was pale, but he still clearly insisted on saying nothing, and his face couldn't help but be surprised and strange.
Mu Jin raised his eyebrows slightly, the people who can live in the backyard must be the shopkeeper's family or relatives.
"How can there be such parents in the world, watching their daughter being bullied, not only did they not find someone to help her, but they even dared to help those brutes cover up. The more Holly spoke, the more angry she became, and she wanted to rush to the parents and teach them a hard lesson.
"After the slave and maid threw the three beasts out, the two of the shopkeepers rushed into the house crying, hugged their daughter and cried bitterly," Holly pouted, "What did you do earlier?"
Ying Niang's eyes were wide-eyed, her eyes were a little surprised, and more incredible.
She has had five miscarriages and has never given birth to a child, and in her heart, she has always thought that if she can give birth to a child, she will definitely treat her as the most important treasure in the world.
So she can't understand the behavior of the shopkeeper couple at all.
After all, Wu Chefu has served in the palace for many years, and he has followed King Liang to many places, and Holly's words, he pondered for a moment, and his face was a little bad.
"Lady, we're just afraid of some trouble!" the coachman looked at him with some hesitation.
Mu Jin raised his eyes to look at the Wu coachman.
Facing the girl's apricot eyes that were as calm as a pool of clear lake water, the coachman was stunned, "The lady also thought of it, right?"
Mu Jin nodded, "Pack up your things immediately, and as soon as the morning dawns, we will leave Jinzhai." ā
The coachman nodded solemnly and pulled the confused Luo Xu away.
Yingniang has ten years of experience in the shopping mall, and after fading away from the initial shock, she also understands it after pondering.
"There are only two possible reasons why the shopkeeper acts like this, those people are higher in status and more powerful than him, and he does not dare to resist, or he has the power to fall into the hands of others, and he is threatened and cannot resist. Yingniang looked at Mu Jin with a solemn expression.
Mu Jin nodded, the corners of his mouth tugging, "No matter which of the two or the other, this matter can't be good." ā
Therefore, it is more appropriate to pack up and leave as soon as possible, Yingniang glanced at Mu Jin with sorrow, she felt that if she really encountered any hard ballast, among the five of them, only Holly could do kung fu, but I was afraid that she would not be able to resist it at all!
So it's better to pack up quickly!
Only Holly was left with a broken face, wanting to cry without tears, "Lady, is the slave in trouble?"
Mu Jin's eyebrows bent, "It's okay, haven't you fought for a long time?"
Holly saw that her lady's face was not worried, and her depressed expression suddenly dissipated, which was quite a bit of a fist.
The east had just turned white, and the rain had finally stopped after a night's rain, and the air was filled with a damp smell.
The shopkeeper opened the door of the inn with sleepy eyes, his nose couldn't help moving, and when he saw the situation in front of the door, he couldn't help but be frightened and his legs were weak, and he ran to the inn with a stream of urine.
"Oh no, dead man, dead man!"
With an exclamation from the shopkeeper, the entire inn got up!
