Chapter Eighty-Three: A Strange Discovery
That's the woman Xia Yuan brought to the clan mansion before!
That is, the woman who was lost with a bloody hand.
At this time, Xia Fan had just wandered to an auxiliary road, and there were not many people coming and going in the street, and the woman was still far away from Xia Fan, and walked out of a house at the end of this auxiliary road.
If it weren't for the deep impression of this woman, I'm afraid it would be difficult for Xia Fan to recognize the other party at a glance at such a distance.
After the woman walked out of the house, she walked straight to another road at the end of this auxiliary road, the two roads intersected in a T-shape, and the woman disappeared from Xia Fan's sight with just one turn.
Without thinking too much, Xia Fan gave up the idea of going to the black hand stronghold first, but instantly sped up his speed, and moved forward extremely fast in the flow of people like a swimming fish, chasing in the direction where the woman left.
Plans don't change quickly, and it's often the situation that's right in front of you.
Xia Fan's movements are very flexible, his body seems to be always on normal walking, but his speed is extremely fast, and in the process of walking back and forth in the crowd, he has not collided with any pedestrians.
To do this, it is undoubtedly very difficult, not only for the footwork is extremely demanding, but also for the ability to predict and react.
But these are obviously the basic qualities that a top killer must have.
It didn't take long for Xia Fan to follow the woman more than ten meters behind him, there were people on the street, Xia Fan's height was limited by his age, and he was not very prominent, so this distance was quite safe.
It's just that I don't know if this woman is a habit, or if she noticed something in advance, and she has been wandering around according to a highly confusing route as she moves forward.
Although this way of getting rid of possible stalkers was of no use to Xia Fan, at least it made Xia Fan understand why the bloody hand would lose this woman.
Without relevant training, it is really not easy to keep up with this woman all the time, it seems that this woman has long been used to doing some unseemly things, right?
Thinking of this, Xia Fan already had a preliminary plan for the content of the next intensive training of the blood servants, and it is always beneficial to know more things if you don't pressure yourself.
After walking three blocks behind the woman, Xia Fan saw that the woman finally stopped and entered an inn.
Looking up at the three big words 'Fenglin Night' hanging above the door of the inn, Xia Fan couldn't help but show a knowing smile.
As the most famous gentleman in Qingyang City, Xia Fan certainly knows what the most attractive thing about this inn is.
In fact, during his years of wandering, there were two places in Qingyang City that he liked to visit the most.
One is 'Wanhualou', and the other is ...... It is the 'Maple Forest Night' in front of you.
The former has better service, the latter has more flavor, and they focus on each other in different directions, in the eyes of Xia Fan at that time, their status can really be regarded as equal.
"That's how it counts...... It's been three months since I was reworked, and I've been focusing on improving my strength, but I've never been to Wanhualou and Fenglin Evening again. Any change must have a gradual process to not attract attention, it seems that in the past few days, you have to take the time to go to Wanhualou to show your face. ”
After pondering in his heart, Xia Fan stepped in.
Although the door has been opened, it is early in the morning, and the business of 'Maple Grove Evening' is obviously not yet there, although the first floor is also doing the same business as the tavern, but 'Maple Grove Evening' is not maintained by restaurants after all, and no one will run out to eat and drink in the morning, so the store is very deserted.
A shopkeeper leaned in front of the counter of the shopkeeper, chatting with the shopkeeper for a while, except for the two of them, there was no one else on the first floor of the entire 'Maple Forest Night'.
"Huh? Isn't this Xia Ershao? Second young man, you haven't been to us in a few days. ”
The shopkeeper naturally noticed Xia Fan who walked into the store for the first time, and after being stunned for a moment, he immediately walked out from behind the counter with a smile on his face.
"My Tianzi room paid for a year in advance, if you don't come again, you will all earn it for nothing."
Xia Fan rolled his eyes, and his tone became arrogant.
"Er Shao said that, we clean the room for you every day, and we will never be lazy because you haven't come here for a while."
The shopkeeper had already walked up to Xia Fan, and said with a flattering look on his face.
"Forgive me for not daring to fool Young Master Ben, come on, I'll go up and take a look first, it's too early to get up today, I have to go make up for sleep first, and then contact the owner of your family when I wake up."
Xia Fan waved his hand, yawned at the same time, and said with a look of impatience.
"Cheng, slow down, I'll send you up."
The shopkeeper is hunched down, and he must lead the way first.
"No, it's not like I don't know where my room is, just go up by yourself. Kindness...... That's right......"
Xia Fan shook his head, and then suddenly remembered something, reached out and took out a piece of broken silver from his pocket, threw it directly to the shopkeeper, and said in a low voice: "The reason why I came out so early today is because of the old man in the family." But the old man didn't know that I didn't do what he asked, but came to your 'Fenglin Night', in short, if there is our family or someone who knows me, you and you, the little two, can keep your mouth tight, remember that I didn't come over today, understand? If you let the family know, young master, I'm here with you today...... Hehe, young master, I'll peel off the skin of both of you! ”
The shopkeeper took the silver, listened to what Xia Fan said, couldn't help but shudder, and then hurriedly laughed and said, "Second young master, don't worry, I promise that I won't stab Lou Zi for you." ”
"Come on, you're busy, I'll go up by myself."
Xia Fan nodded, didn't say anything more to the shopkeeper, turned around and walked up the stairs, towards the third floor where the Tianzi room was located.
The shopkeeper waited until Xia Fan went up to the second floor and couldn't see it again, then threw the broken silver in his hand to the shopkeeper, and scolded with a smile: "Use this silver to buy some pastries, let's change the meal in the morning." If you want to talk about these masters in our store, that is, Xia Ershao is generous. You remember what the two young men said just now, right? ”
"Remember, don't you worry about me as the shopkeeper?"
The shopkeeper happily took the silver and said casually.
The shopkeeper waved his hand, watched the shopkeeper run out of the door, and then went back to his counter, boredly counting yesterday's accounts.
He didn't have any doubts about Xia Fan's words, because in the past, Xia Fan often did such things.
Let's say that Xia Fan went all the way to the third floor, and then swayed towards the Tianzi room he had booked all year round with his hands behind his back, and when he was talking to the shopkeeper on the first floor, his attention was always on the woman who came in before.
The steps are all wooden, and they creak when they walk, although the movement is not big, it is enough for Xia Fan to judge how many floors the woman has gone up.
Sure enough, after deliberately going around the third floor, Xia Fan was outside the door of one of the Tianzi rooms and heard a voice!
Although he was not too impressed by the woman's voice, he could hear it after all, and what really interested Xia Fan was that in addition to the woman's voice, there was also a man's deep voice in this room.
And this man's voice is extremely familiar to him.
Xia Wuxian, the third elder of the family...... Why did you come to the 'Maple Forest Evening' early in the morning to meet this woman?
