Chapter 256: Guests Come Like Clouds

"This guest officer, do you always drink alone? Or are you waiting? The shopkeeper greeted with a smile while wiping the already bright and shining table diligently: "I'll give you a pot of this year's Mingqian tea first, and moisten your throat, and then you can order food slowly." ”

As he spoke, he quickly took a set of tea sets, poured fragrant tea in the bowl, and presented it to Zhao Liang with both hands, and then said: "Although the restaurant can't catch up with the big restaurant in Bianliang, Tokyo, it hires famous chefs from the north and south, so there are all kinds of delicacies from all over the world, and you like it." ”

Zhao Liang glanced around at the private room he was in at this time and asked, "How many such boxes are there on this floor?" ”

The guy put the handkerchief on his shoulder, and introduced it like a few family treasures: "There are two floors up and down the store, the first floor is an open hall, and the second floor is full of private rooms, four large and twelve small, a total of 16 places. The large private rooms are sorted in spring, summer, autumn and winter, and each can accommodate three tables of eight immortals; The small ones are all named after the month, and they are all like our 'Puyue' private room, which can be viewed by the window. It's very pleasant to meet friends and feast here. ”

Zhao Liang nodded when he heard this, secretly praised this guy for his articulateness, and then asked, "How is your usual business?" Are there many private rooms booked here? ”

"I'll tell you the truth, if you put it on hold and don't go two or three days in advance, you won't be able to book a seat at all." The guy smiled: "Isn't this the war between the two countries right now, the people in the city have run away, and most of the old customers who haven't left have stayed at home and don't come out for recreation." Therefore, the business of the shop has also been greatly affected. In the past few days, the outside of the city has stopped a little, and only then have guests come to the door one after another. You should have seen it when you came up just now, and the downstairs is still half empty at this time, let alone the private room upstairs. In the past, it would never have been possible. ”

Zhao Liang heard Xiao Er say this, and calmed down a little. The place where Yang Zongbao invited guests was located in the large box of Qiuzihao, and there were still six private rooms away from his house, so he was not afraid of being easily bumped into by acquaintances of the Yongbian army. The other boxes, seven or eight out of ten, were still empty at this time, which was very convenient for the Ranger Travel Agency to come and meet.

He took out some loose silver coins from his bosom, rewarded them to Xiao Er, and instructed: "My friend hasn't come yet, so I don't need you to serve here for the time being." If there is any need, I will call you. ”

Xiao Er took the reward, happily made a succession, and hurriedly brought in two dim sum food boxes from the outside, presented them to Zhao Liang to enjoy, and then turned around and went out.

Zhao Liang got up and walked to the door of the room, first listened to the fact that there was no movement outside, and then moved to the window, looking down the street below.

There was a noodle stall at the corner of the street, and Xiao Feng and Duan Yu were sitting there at this time, pretending to eat while paying attention to the movements around them. Seeing Zhao Liang appear, Xiao Feng hurriedly nodded slightly towards it.

Zhao Liang gave him a response, and then turned his gaze to the other side, not far from the door of the pharmacy, there was a fortune teller, who was sitting at a small table to teach an old woman.

Although the other party deliberately dressed up, Zhao Liang still recognized at a glance that the fortune teller was Li Erbai.

Zhao Liang knew that with the eyes of Erbai Dao, he could detect his position without turning his head, so he retracted his gaze with confidence and sat back at the table.

When he came up just now, he had already seen Xiaoya on the first floor. This girl is really clever, and directly chose a platform next to the window inside, in that place, whether it is the door of the restaurant, the staircase up and down, or the street outside, you can see it at a glance, and the view is excellent.

With such an arrangement, I am afraid that the liaison will not come, as long as he comes, he will definitely not be able to escape the net laid by Zhao Liang.

At this time, in the large private room of the autumn character not far away, from time to time

There was a burst of laughter. It seems that the officers of the Pioneer Scout Battalion have almost arrived, and Yang Zongbao's reception dinner has begun.

Before, Yang Paifeng and Zhao Liang arrived at the earliest, and the two of them specifically inquired at the counter, but they did not ask from the store that the mysterious staff of the travel agency had booked the box.

Seeing that Zhao Liang was a little disappointed, Yang Paifeng comforted him and said that it might be because it was still early and the other party hadn't come yet, so there was no need to worry. She told the shopkeeper that if there was a young man in his twenties surnamed Xia who came alone to book a private room, he would ask the guy to go to Qiuzihao to inform her.

Zhao Liang had no choice but to wait in the Puyue box according to his aunt's arrangement, and then ask him to come over to meet after Yang Paifeng met the man.

Seeing that half a pot of tea was in his stomach, and the noisy sound of fighting wine outside was getting louder and louder, Zhao Liang gradually became a little impatient. He stood up and was about to go into the hallway to check on the situation when he heard a knock on the door.

Zhao Liang was overjoyed, knowing that this must be his aunt who came to call him, so he hurriedly stepped forward and opened the door. However, what he didn't expect was that it was not Yang Paifeng standing outside, but Zheng Luya, who was a little flustered.

Zhao Liang couldn't help but be slightly stunned when he saw Xiao Ya, and was about to ask, but Xiao Ya had already flashed into the room with a brisk step, covered half of the door with his hand, and said nervously: "Hurry up and hide, I see my instructor!" ”

With her words, Zhao Liang caught a glimpse of a few people walking up the stairs not far away. One of them was Major Zhang Bo, whom he had met in Jingkou Town at the end of the Qin Dynasty.

Zhao Liang was shocked in his heart, and quickly closed the door on the other side of the room before those few people reached the second floor and had not turned around.

"Damn, why is he here? Recognize you? ”

"Probably not," Xiao Ya said with palpitations: "Fortunately, I have been paying attention to the situation on the street, and I saw Instructor Zhang and them walking towards Hongbin Building from a distance." These guys are seasoned veteran agents, and when they enter an unfamiliar environment, they will definitely take a closer look at their surroundings. I sat there, and I definitely couldn't escape Instructor Zhang's eyes, so I immediately decided to apply oil on the soles of my feet first, and rush up and hide from you before they entered the store. ”

Zhao Liang frowned: "Well, your decision is right. If they detect it first, I'm afraid it will disrupt our plans, and at the same time scare away the people of Ranger Travel. ”

Insert a sentence, [Source Change Artifact] is really good, it's worth pretending, and Android and Apple phones support it!

Xiaoya put her ear to the door, listened to the movement outside, and then asked Zhao Liang: "What should I do now?" I didn't expect them to come so quickly, as long as Xiao Feng Duan Yu revealed your location to the other party, they would definitely act soon. ”

Zhao Liang thought for a moment and asked, "Have you seen how many of them are there clearly?" ”

"Five, standard action team configuration!" Xiaoya replied affirmatively: "Except for Instructor Zhang, I don't know the rest, it is likely that they are from other units, or people from the secret service headquarters." ”

Zhao Liang pulled a crack in the door, looked out, and said: "They entered the Guiyue private room, only two boxes away from us, let's take advantage of the second child in the store to block them at the door, hurry up and change places!" ”

After that, Zhao Liang dragged the door open, pulled Xiaoya with him, and crept into the private room named Huaiyue next door. There is a wooden sign with the word "order" written on it at the door of this room, which is obviously requested by a guest in advance, but no one has come at this time.

The two of them can't manage so much for the time being, so they can only go in first to hide.

As soon as they entered the house, they heard another noise on the other side of the stairs. Zhao Liang subconsciously looked out along the crack in the door, and couldn't help but be stunned on the spot.

At this moment, coming up from below was Shangguan Xueming, who was dressed as a military attache of the Song Army, and a special soldier under him.

I'm Nima! What's going on? Zhao Liang was secretly surprised in his heart: This guy shouldn't be tied up by Yelu Ning

Send it back? Why is it swaggering up to Hongbin Tower now?

Xiaoya noticed Zhao Liang's abnormality and asked quietly, "What's wrong?" ”

"Shhh Zhao Liang closed the door tightly and said in a low voice: "Shangguan Xueming is here!" ”

Hearing this, Xiao Ya was also stunned, and said in surprise: "What is the situation?" Is there a conference of the Northern Song Dynasty traversers here? ”

Zhao Liang was about to speak, when he suddenly heard Shangguan Xueming's voice outside the door: "Let's want Tongyue's room, it seems that the view is good." ”

"Oh, sir, you really have good eyesight." Xiao Er flattered: "In addition to the four major boxes in spring, summer, autumn and winter, the scenery of this Tongyue is the best, please two masters." ”

Shangguan Xueming stepped into Tongyue's private room, which happened to be next to the place where Zhao Liang and Xiaoya were hiding.

In this way, Zhao Liang and the others are equivalent to being caught in the middle of the arrest team of the anti-penetration bureau and Shangguan Xueming, no matter which way they go, they may run into one of them.

After a while, several groups of diners came upstairs in the store, almost all of them were business travelers in groups of three or five, gradually filling the few vacant private rooms nearby.

The shopkeepers were busy up and down the corridor, greeting the guests warmly, completely unaware of the indescribable strange aura in the three rooms of Guiyue, Huaiyue, and Kiritsuki.

Xiao Ya said in a deep voice: "You made an appointment with Yang Paifeng to wait in Puyue's private room, if she met with that liaison later, and went to Puyue to look for you but couldn't find it, what should I do?" ”

Zhao Liang replied: "This is easy to do, I'll find a guy to pass her a message later, and I'll say that I'll change the room." ”

He leaned on the crack in the door, looked out for a while, and saw a fellow coming from a distance, so he gently opened the door and asked the man to help deliver the message.

But I didn't expect that at this time, another one came up at the staircase, and the shopkeeper hurriedly greeted him when he saw this, and said with a smile: "Oh, this guest officer, I'm really sorry." The private rooms upstairs are full, and you have to take a valuable step to the downstairs to condescend, and the small one will find a good place for you. ”

The man couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, swept all over the second floor with his eyes, and suddenly raised his hand and pointed to a private room with the door ajar and said, "Isn't there no one over there?" ”

Xiao Er turned his head to look at it, and said with a smile: "Hehehe, forgive me, there are already guests in that room, and I was still eating tea and treating friends in there just now." ”

"I was here just now, isn't it here now," the man said as he walked straight to Pu Yue, and continued to speak, "I think his friend is not here, so let's go back first." ”

The shopkeeper reluctantly followed behind the man, and at the same time kept looking around, seeing that there was indeed no trace of Zhao Liang, he had no choice but to give up and discuss: "Since the guest officer has fallen in love with this one, then please sit down for the time being." However, if the previous guest returns later, I am afraid that the little one will have to ask you to move around. ”

"I'll talk about it when I'm back," the man snorted nonchalantly, "I don't have to stay here long." I'll see a friend later, say a few words and leave, and specify your meal money. ”

"Okay, then please wait, the little one will make you a new pot of tea." The shopkeeper hurriedly agreed, and was about to leave, when suddenly he seemed to remember something, turned around and asked, "Well, guest officer, forgive the little presumptuousness, dare to ask your surname?" ”

The man was stunned for a moment and said, "My surname is Xia, what's wrong?" ”

"Oh, it turned out to be Mr. Xia," the shopkeeper made a gesture: "In the private room of the autumn number of Fangcai, there is a female general surnamed Yang who confessed to the shopkeeper of the shop, saying that if one of her friends Xia Gongzi comes, she will inform him, I don't know if you are old?" ”

"Well, she's me, you go and let me know."
