Chapter 437: The Object of Suspicion

I wondered if people of different races would cause trouble in the town if they came to live in an inn.

I carefully recalled the scene I saw in Suzhou.

As a place where visitors from all over the world gather, it seems that all the people walking around Suzhou City get along quite harmoniously.

At least in the streets, there is a lively and prosperous scene, and there are no troublemakers.

The Southgate experience was a bit of a shadow, but it seemed to me to be an exception.

Some of the secrets are still unknown, and I don't have time to figure them out.

There are too many variables in Suzhou, and I haven't even been able to find my senior brother, where can I get the manpower to do things for me?

I didn't have time to separate myself in order to plan my trip to the Northlands, so I was in a hurry to prepare for this.

The worst part was that there were abnormal situations on the road, so that I couldn't even carry my own baggage smoothly!

When I think about it, I'm a little depressed!

Thoughts flashed back, anyway, I went out a few times with Yuanbao and Ah Lai, and I could see people of different races passing by in any lively place on Suzhou Street.

They haunt the streets and alleys, and they can be seen everywhere in restaurants and shops. "It's not a big problem," the shopkeeper paused when he heard this, and then thought for a while before saying, "They live the same and give the same silver, but"

After the shopkeeper finished speaking, he lowered his head and frowned slightly after thinking about it, and he looked at me and said, "It's just a little brother, one thing is still guessed by you." "There are some things about them that are, indeed, different from us."

The shopkeeper looked away.

My heart jumped. The eyes that looked at him suddenly became very solemn, knowing that I was waiting for what he said.

I'd like to hear what the difference is in the eyes of the innkeeper.

He's more accessible to people of different races than I am. This is the advantage brought by the profession, opening an inn, there are many guests from the south to the north, and all kinds of people have the opportunity to come into contact.

The shopkeeper's talkativeness, some of which he said, made me even more convinced.

More reliable than the rumors and rumors of the Northlands that I have heard.

The shopkeeper hesitated for a moment and then said, "The difference between the alien race and here is like what to eat. "The main reason is that their eating habits are different from ours."

That's understandable. The alien races from the Northland, because of the relationship between climate and customs, must be different from the common people here in Sealand. Especially when it comes to eating.

Eating habits are more intuitive in this aspect.

As long as it is a country with a vast area, from south to north, there are many differences, and the tastes are completely different.

The innkeeper looked at me. There was no emotion in his eyes. He paused and continued, "I'll tell you the truth, little brother, there was a foreign cook in our inn at that time. "He's the one who prepares the meals for those people."

The innkeeper said with a smile on his face.

I opened my eyes wide and my eyes fell on his face, and I was stunned for a few seconds, and I couldn't see that the shopkeeper's consciousness was quite advanced! "At that time, there were many more aliens who came to us than in other inns!"

The innkeeper's eyes were very affirmative, and his tone was unabashedly authentic.

I knew he was telling me the truth, but I understood it when I thought about it. How can it be?

It is estimated that other families do not have so much courage to dare to directly use people of different races to work in the inn.

The shopkeeper of this inn is an interesting person!

I look at him with a little more content now.

People who can innovate their minds and have new ideas are very good. Especially in this day and age.

In my opinion, all the people who can break the rules are like the first to eat crabs, and they are very brave and amazing!

This is not something that ordinary people can do, ordinary people don't have that courage!

The innkeeper's words revealed more information.

He mentions that people of different races have worked in the inn and under him.

The meaning of the words meant that I could find out more about the Northlanders.

After all, I'm just a passer-by in Nanhua Town, and the destination I'm going to is more important.

During the conversation, before I knew it, time passed quickly, and it was already the moment when the second half of the night was gradually approaching dawn.

I thought to myself in order to open up the conversation, or maybe I could use a better way.

As soon as the thought came to me, I smiled at the innkeeper and said, "After eating the pastries you treated, why don't I go to the big kitchen and get some food." ”

The shopkeeper looked at me with a surprised expression.

I avoided his gaze, turned to the side of the young man embarrassedly, and said, "But I need someone to help me, I wonder if you can?" ”

"Okay!" The young man agreed quite happily, without the slightest hesitation.

I stared at him for a few seconds, then smiled and said, "Then follow me." ”

I said hello to the innkeeper, turned and left, stopped again when I reached the door, and whispered to the young man, "I'm sorry for you." “

I don't want to say this in front of the shopkeeper, but if I want someone to help, it's a nuisance, so I have to express it.

There was a little surprise in the young man's eyes, and I didn't wait for him to answer, but walked first to the backyard of the inn.

As I passed the wooden staircase, I vaguely felt as if there was a line of sight from upstairs in our direction.

My heart skipped a beat, and I turned my head to stare at it, but I didn't notice the shadow that was paying attention to us.

Is it a delusion?

I frowned, my heart is not, maybe it's still that weird person!

It was with the shopkeeper and the young man who stayed in the lobby of the inn in the middle of the night, tasting snacks and chewing wax.

The state he showed really didn't look like an ordinary person in Nanhua Town, and he didn't know what was behind it.

Instantly, I had a strange feeling that I couldn't think of any other guest who would stay awake in the hallway in the middle of the night and stare at the backyard.

Who else?

Although the shopkeeper also mentioned to me that there are a few customers who do business, I think those few people don't have that much spare time!

It's the object of my suspicions. I've been looking badly, and I don't know where I caught his attention!

I'd like to ask the guy about the man's identity, but it's not a good time yet.

I thought about it for a moment. I plan to wait for a while in the kitchen to be busy, and when the two of them are talking, I will interject at random.

Maybe it's more likely that you can find out the inside story!

When people are busy, it's hard to do two things.

Besides, when it comes to work, dialogue is inevitable, and you will be distracted while talking, and that is when the distance is closer and the vigilance is minimal.

I want to ask, but I have to pick the right time!

I figured it out. He didn't hesitate any longer, and took the young man to approach the kitchen in the backyard of the inn.

When I get here, it's not my world. For the time being, someone familiar with the situation will have to lead the way.

The kitchen of the inn is huge, and I'm not the one who does things in the inn.

The young man was very eye-catching and said to me, "Guest, you wait a minute. I'll go in first. ”

Let's talk. He didn't wait for me to answer, and went straight into the big black-lit kitchen.

After a while, the kitchen lights up and illuminates the room.

I paused in the doorway and glanced back at the upstairs corridor, where the gaze that stared at me was gone.

I pursed my lips, and instead of feeling any lighter, the disappearance of the figure made me feel a suppressed tension.

Stand still. I calmed myself down and took a deep breath before walking calmly into the large kitchen.

That person may have heard my conversation with the innkeeper. to confirm what we are going to do.

There are a lot of ingredients in the kitchen of the inn, stacked neatly, I looked at the room in front of me, at first glance, I was stunned!

Based on the number of ingredients here, even if the inn is full, it is enough.

But the business of the inn is not good at the moment, and it will be too wasteful for the shopkeeper to prepare so many ingredients.

I think it's a little weird!

The young man looked up and gave me a quick look.

He saw me standing in the doorway, thoughtful, walking towards me, as if he had guessed the question in my mind.

He took a few steps forward, approached me and whispered, "Guest, many of the ingredients we have here are dry, you may not have looked too carefully. ”

He looked at me for a few seconds and motioned for me to take another look.

I scanned it again after he mentioned it, and this time I saw more of what I had just overlooked.

Indeed, as the young man said, most of the ingredients prepared in the large kitchen can be stored for a period of time.

The fresh vegetables I saw were stacked in stacked bamboo baskets.

When I looked at it, I felt that the tall bamboo baskets were piled up like a hill, and if I looked closely, I could see that many of the baskets stacked underneath were empty.

There were no empty bamboo baskets with vegetables and vegetables.

Although the kitchen is quite large, it is still relatively small to take up an area when stacked up when it is stored, which is a very good way to deal with it.

The number of vegetables is not much, but the hanging wind chickens and geese and the like, when they are full, there are more of them.

"It's cold during this time, so it won't be bad to put it here," I muttered in a low voice.

Turning his head, he saw the young man walking to the stove and starting a fire.

I asked him to come and help me in the big kitchen, he didn't know what I was going to eat, but he must have guessed that this was the thing I was not good at.

The young man was quick and didn't keep me waiting long, and soon he raised the fire.

The temperature inside is starting to rise, much warmer than before.

The young man stuck his head out of the stove and looked at me, and added, "Guest, what do you want to do, just take the ingredients yourself, and if you want me to help, say okay." ”

I nodded, and placed the paper bag in my hand on a long table in the large kitchen.

I had just opened the paper bag here, but the young man who was staying by the stove walked over quickly.

He stared at the pile of things on the table for a moment, then he looked up at me with a puzzled expression and asked, "Guest, have you never been to Nanhua Town before?" ”

As soon as he asked, I knew what he was thinking, and he felt that something was not right.

I turned my head to see the change in expression on his face, and then replied in a natural manner, "These things were given to me by a friend of mine." “

I quietly looked away from him, and said in a relaxed tone: "I met her on the road, she is from Nanhua Town, and originally wanted to bring these ingredients to Suzhou." ”

"When they met me, they gave me the ingredients when they knew I was coming to Nanhua Town."

In fact, the excuses I made temporarily had flaws and loopholes, but ordinary people are not tortured to extract confessions, who would think so much.

What I want to say is that these ingredients arouse the young man's suspicions, and I can explain that I didn't make them myself.

As for whether he believes it or not, I have no obligation to convince him.

The young man looked at me without thinking about it and continued: "I think this method seems to be here in Nanhua Town, but his method of making it is a little different. “

The young man obviously understood what I said, and a subtle expression flashed across his face, "Anyway, it's different from what is sold in the shops on the street." ”

Commercially available mass production, where can it be compared to the do-it-yourself production!

He was very knowledgeable, and I happily looked at the young man and said, "You're right." "My friend has always liked good food, and she's willing to think more about it," I paused, and then changed my tone, "just like your shopkeeper's friend likes to grow tea." ”

I smiled slightly, looked away from him, and began to concentrate on the bag of ingredients I had brought.

I have observed Wu Yu's technique throughout the whole process, and it is certainly not difficult to draw a gourd in the same way at this time.

In this regard, I may be better than her, because I have traveled more places and seen more delicious food.

Working together, the guy and I were busy in the big kitchen for a pot of hot soup.

In the middle of the gap, I found the opportunity I thought of, so I turned my head and glanced at him casually, and asked casually, "When I came down before, I saw your shopkeeper and you." ”

"But there's another person next to me," I asked in a low voice, after a pause, "is he a guest at the hotel?" ”

The young man replied very quickly, without the slightest suspicion: "You asked the person just now?" "That is also a friend of the shopkeeper," the young man said fluently, "didn't the shopkeeper say that his old friend grows tea in the barren mountains and reclamation land around Beilang Mountain. ”

My eyes moved, and I looked at him.

"That person just now is helping to take care of the tea plantation." The young man's eyes fell on my face, and he paused to explain to me.

Cooking in a tea plantation? Is it just a helper?

I thought to myself, why didn't he feel like a helper at all?

I've seen several of the little servants of the Yuwen family, and I've been in contact with all the housekeepers, but the experience is completely different!

The young man tilted his head and thought for a while, looked at me and continued: "That person just now is not only working in the tea garden, he will also come to Nanhua Town regularly. "Come to the inn and bring tea to our shopkeeper."

The young man said in a gentle tone: "After the barren mountains over there are reclaimed, the friend of the shopkeeper will buy some poultry from the mountain people and the game they hunt on the mountain when he is idle. ”

He walked over to the stove, crouched down and added a few pieces of firewood to it, and continued with my gaze. (To be continued.) )
