At noon, the daffodil house opened for business, and Narcissus sat in his private room as usual, drinking tea and watching all kinds of passers-by outside. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info A crying woman's voice caught his attention, and he followed the sound to look over, and there was a group of people not far away, but he couldn't see what the crowd was around.

He asked the housekeeper Wu Da to come in and ask what was going on outside, and Wu Da raised his eyes and looked: "Hey... I didn't have it when I came back from outside just now, so I'll take a look. ”

Narcissus watched Wu Da squeeze into the crowd, and after a while he retreated, but he didn't do anything, and came back directly to report that it was a woman who sold herself to bury her father, and they came from other places to see a doctor for her father, but she didn't expect her father to die in a foreign country, and the money on her body was spent to see a doctor, and now she is desperate .......

Narcissus held the teacup and blew twice, interrupting him and said, "Steward Wu, how many years have you been working here?" He was stunned for a moment and replied for three years, Narcissus raised his eyes and looked at him: "Don't you know what kind of business we do, crying and crying so much that the guests are noisy, if the guests are not satisfied, you will make up for the lost silver?"

Wu Da shook his head and nodded again: "Ah... I understand. With that, he rushed out. Narcissus watched him rush into the crowd, and after a while the crowd dispersed, and the onlookers began to point in the direction of Narcissus House, and they couldn't hear what they were saying clearly, but Narcissus continued to drink tea as if she didn't care at all, and the woman took the sign and bowed her head and left in frustration.

Narcissus called her personal maid Ping'er to come in and whispered a few words to her, and she subconsciously glanced out and went out.

This daffodil dwelling is located at the foot of the Son of Heaven, east of the capital, at the northwest corner of a crossroads. The V-shaped 90-degree building has three floors, the first and second floors are open to the public, the third floor is the room of the boss Narcissus and Apple, and the kitchen warehouse and other auxiliary rooms are in the backyard.

The guests here are all dignitaries, and the common people can only walk around, if they come in without knowing the situation and refuse to leave, then the whole family can only dig some bark to eat.

The loose table on the first floor does not matter whether you eat or not, one or two silver is the base, the food money, wine money and tea money are counted separately, and the private room on the second floor is five taels of silver as the base. Even if it rises to ten taels, those idle sons will go in one by one, and for them, what they eat is not food, not wine, but face. In their eyes, the common people are all ants, and it is rare to have such a good place not to eat with them.

The private room in the middle of the second floor, with a panoramic view of the crossroads, is a room dedicated to Narcissus, because the door of the room is facing the staircase, but there is no need to make trouble in this room.

The daffodil house opens at noon and closes, and the guys begin to rush out to catch up with the guests, who come here are regulars, know the rules here, and also know the temper of the daffodils, drunk and unconscious, and the entourage that follows is to resist or help or to get out.

At that time, the guys began to clean up the tables, chairs, benches, and kitchens, and left after half an hour. As soon as the night was dark, the people of the city had stopped their activities and rested, Narcissus changed into a set of black clothes, the mask and the clothes were one-piece, and after wearing the turban, only a pair of eyes could be seen, and it was difficult for people who were not very familiar with it to recognize their original faces.

This is completely two people from the daytime, he usually likes to wear white high-necked clothes, and the collar can basically block the entire neck and connect to the chin. A guest once jokingly asked him if he was dressed like this because he was weak and afraid of catching a cold and his trachea was fragile, but he just smiled and didn't answer.

Put a layer of transparent gauze on top of the white clothes, and the already white skin will appear whiter. In everyone's eyes, the appearance of Narcissus is fresh and handsome, but the fly in the ointment is that it is half a foot behind the seven-foot man.

He learned from Ping'er that the woman lived in Yizhuang during the day, so he ran straight over. The caretaker there saw that the woman was pitiful, and gave her his room to live in, and he lived in a relative's house, and he thought that Yizhuang was all coffins of dead people, and there would be no thieves who could not worry about anything serious.

Narcissus saw that there was still a candle lit in the room and went to knock on the door, the woman opened the door and saw that it was a masked man, she was stunned for a moment before opening her mouth, and before she could make a sound, Narcissus immediately covered her mouth and whispered: "I'm here to help you." As he spoke, he took out five taels of silver and handed it to her, so that she could bury her father, and the rest of the money would be used as the cost of returning to her hometown.

The woman looked at him and couldn't react for a while, and then looked at the silver and didn't dare to take it, Narcissus continued: "You girl's family still don't live here, come with me to a place, and you can live there with peace of mind before returning to your hometown." With that, he shoved the silver into her hand.

The woman was still very confused, and she didn't even say thank you, staring at the silver, but her body involuntarily slowly walked forward. Narcissus took her to the door of a private house, he knocked five times with a special knock on the door with two slow and three urgent, and no one opened the door after about ten seconds, he knocked again in the same way, and as soon as the door opened, he smiled: "Brother, I'm going to trouble you again, let this girl stay here for a few days, and his father will leave here after his burial." ”

The people in the courtyard looked at him and nodded, the woman looked into the courtyard and didn't dare to enter, and began to stare at the person, Narcissus smiled softly and said, "Don't worry, it's okay, he is the head of Li Zhutou of Jingzhao Mansion, and he is designed to catch bad people for the people." The woman turned to Narcissus to stare again, "He is the Guanyin of the people's mouth, and he is not a bad person." Li Zhutou said.

The woman's eyes widened when she heard this, she had heard of Guanyin for a long time, but she didn't expect him to be in the capital, although the losses over the years were all the rich businessmen and eunuchs in the capital, but the people who benefited were all the people outside the capital, and even the affected areas a little farther away, so the people thought that he didn't live in the capital and only occasionally entered the city to act.

Li Zhutou looked at her and said impatiently: "Girl, you are not sleepy, I am sleepy, don't look at it anymore, what's so good about showing only two eyes." Narcissus patted Li Zhutou and smiled: "I don't know who I am, you are safe, - thank you." Li Zhutou nodded and walked into the courtyard, shouted to lock the door, and the woman looked at Narcissus and said thank you and closed the door.

As soon as noon arrives on the second day, the men begin to prepare the door to welcome the guests, and Appleball begins to prepare the water and breakfast for Narcissus, who can only help her carry the water to the third floor platform, because of the rule here, no one but Apple can enter Narcissus's room. And before noon, the sky falls and the narcissus will not get up.

In the afternoon, as soon as Ping'er came back from outside, she hurried into Narcissus's private room, Narcissus watched her hand out a cup of tea, she walked to Narcissus and whispered: "I saw that yesterday's woman had been wandering around the street in front, and I thought it was strange so I asked a child to help her, she said that her father's body was gone, and she was waiting for someone who could help her, and the man's friend told her that she had been to those places yesterday, and if she went to those places today, she would definitely find someone to help her, Childe, she was looking for you." ”

Narcissus frowned, he didn't think it was strange that the corpse was not seen, anything could happen in this year, but for a while he couldn't figure out who would steal the corpse, what to steal it for, or what other use it was for, he thought about looking out the window, the woman had already come this way, but no matter how anxious she was, Narcissus could only ask after a while.

As soon as the time passed, Narcissus changed his clothes and went straight to Li Zhutou's house, Li Zhutou was not surprised at all when he opened the door, and said with a wicked smile: "How about it? My method is useful, it turns out that you also live in the east of the city, I am afraid that one day I will arrest you." Narcissus coughed and shook his head and walked into the courtyard, saying: "You have also passed the addiction, I really want to know who I am, you really want to arrest me, there is no Guanyin in the world for a long time." ”

Li Zhutou sighed and followed the house, and listened to the woman tell her about her situation, there were three corpses in Yizhuang at the same time, but only her father's corpse was missing. When the father and daughter came to the capital seven days ago, they did not go anywhere else, but went directly to the Kangfutang, a medical center in the east of the city, where the patients from other places could live for treatment, so she stayed in the inn opposite to visit her father.

Five days later, the medical center apologized, saying that her father's illness had dragged on for too long, and that they had done their best, and that the guys from the medical center had helped to deliver the body to the nearest Yizhuang. From the time I entered the capital to the death of my father, I had no contact with other people, only yesterday afternoon, when I sold my body to bury my father, someone came and said that it affected their business, but I left immediately and did not quarrel and offend them.

Narcissus understood that the person was sent by Wu Da himself, so the most suspicious thing was this Kangfutang, he was about to start the investigation from Kangfutang, and was thinking that the woman interjected: "My father just has a stomachache, but he can't take any medicine, and the pain is even worse when he eats, and he lost twenty pounds in a month, so he thought of coming to the capital to see, but he didn't expect ......." After saying that, he began to whimper.

Narcissus looked at her: "Don't worry, girl, leave this matter to me, everything will be solved one day, and I will definitely find your father's body." After speaking, he walked out, Li Zhutou asked him if he wanted to help, he didn't look back and shook his hand and said: "Guanyin is out of the horse, don't participate in your white way, and take care of her for a few days until this matter is over." ”
