Qin Niang and Rong Xi drove out of the most prosperous street in the capital in a carriage and came to a Western street in the west of the city.

They got out of the carriage at the corner of the street and walked all the way to the end of the street, stopping at a pet shop.

Qin Niang raised her eyebrows, she had really never been to this place before, although she grew up in this capital since she was a child, she didn't know that there was such a place in this capital.

On the signboard, the appearance of a snake was drawn, which looked well-behaved and smart.

"Ordinary women here generally don't come, the owner of this shop is from the south, the weather is hot in the south, there are more snakes, insects, rats and ants, and the people in the south are more civilized, both men and women will not be afraid of these things, and some women are very good at playing with snakes." Rong Xi saw the surprise in her eyes, so she couldn't help but explain a few more words.

"Southerners?" Qin Niang raised her eyebrows, why is it the southern border again?

"Yes, this boss has been in the capital for several years, although there is no one in Beijing who is interested in snakes, but the boss is a snake idiot, so those who have obtained precious snake species will also come here to sell, and the boss is also interested in opening this shop, and most of them don't make money." With that, she led Qin Niang into the store.

If you don't make money but are willing to rent a store in this place for a few years, it's not a matter of Xingzhi.

After all, such a great ambition is to burn silver.

As soon as you walk into the store, you will be greeted by the fishy smell of various animals mixed together, and people often want to cover their noses.

But forced to be polite, Rong Xi and Qin Niang endured it and did not move.

A young man who looked dark and thin in the store saw a customer coming, and immediately greeted him: "Yo, two girls, what a rare customer, only men come to the shop on weekdays." ”

Qin Niang secretly glanced at the furnishings in the store, if the large hall is full of all kinds of cages, cages are filled with all kinds of animals, there are monkeys, dogs, cats, foxes and leopards, of course, the most are all kinds of snakes, colorful and scary.

The snake eyes glanced at them, and they couldn't help but shudder in unison.

"Is your boss here?" Rong Xi tried his best to stabilize the expression on his face, maintained a polite smile, and asked.

"Our boss, wait a minute, I'll call you." As the young man spoke, he immediately rushed to the inner room and called out in a loud voice, "Boss, there are guests looking for you." ”

The loud voice could probably be heard in three streets.

Rong Xi was afraid that Qin Niang would think that those people had no rules, so he turned his head to look at her and explained: "The people in the south have always been more bold, they have always acted aggressively, and they don't pay attention to those details. ”

Qin Niang just smiled and didn't speak.

Regarding the habits and styles of the people in the south, she has experienced Bu Shuyuan very deeply these days, and even if a man and a woman hug her in front of her at this moment, she probably won't feel strange.

There was no way, Bu Shuyuan used her strength to show her how the people in the south are civilized.

Soon, a middle-aged man with a black face walked out, he was extremely tall, his two arms were exposed, his skin was dark and firm, he walked towards Qin Niang and the two, Qin Niang suddenly had to look up at him.

Compared to him, the two of them seemed to have come out of the Lilliputian kingdom, and they had a hard time talking.

"Isn't this Miss Rong? What are you looking for me? The man asked in a thick voice.

His voice was also very loud, and Qin Niang frowned uncomfortably, but she didn't say anything.

"Roy, has anyone come to you to buy snakes lately?" Rong Xi asked straight to the point.

The boss named Luo Yi obviously also knew Rong Xi, after all, most of the people who came to his store were men, and there were very few women, and Rong Xi came with a friend at the time, so he remembered it.

"Buy snakes?" Roy frowned and thought for a while, "There are people who buy snakes, but I don't know them, you are looking for people who buy snakes?" But it's not one or two who come to buy snakes, I don't know who you're looking for? ”

Rong Xi said: "If someone buys sacks and sacks, you should always have an impression, right?" ”

Roy seemed to be taken aback by her words, and blurted out, "Sack by sack?" Who is so generous, you know, these treasures in my store are all trained, not easy to hurt people, buy a very expensive, buy a sack, I'm afraid I don't need to worry about eating this year. ”

Rong Xi scrutinized his face carefully, as if he wanted to see from his face whether he was lying or not.

But the expression on Loe's face was so real that she couldn't find any sign of him lying for a while.

"Boss, is there really no one who has come to buy your snakes in large quantities?" Qin Niang asked, "Or, besides you, is there anyone else who can train snakes with you?" ”

If the person who controls the snake is not the strong man in front of him, then there is someone else.

In short, a cold-blooded animal like a snake should be very few people like to buy it back and raise it on weekdays, and there are even fewer people who can train snakes.

Roy seemed to be stunned by her question, he scratched his not too long hair, and thought for a while: "Except for me, there is probably no one in this capital who can train snakes." ”

Qin Niang looked at him scrutinically.

Roy suddenly felt that the purpose of these two people coming to her was unusual, and his heart suddenly lifted, he looked at them and asked, "What's the matter?" Has anyone done anything with snakes lately? ”

I have to say that this boss who seems to have developed limbs and a not very good brain is actually a keen person, and he asked some strange questions as soon as he saw the two in front of him enter the door, and his intuition told him that something terrible happened in the capital, and it was related to him.

"There are snakes in the capital, but apart from you, we really can't think of anyone else in the entire capital who has such a large number of snakes, and besides, those snakes are controlled by people and bite people." Rong Xi didn't plan to play any tai chi with the other party, after all, the people in the south were straight, so they went straight to the sword.

They don't understand if they make too many detours.

She didn't want to waste her time either.

It was so uncomfortable to stay in this place, she wished she had asked earlier and left quickly.

"What?" Roy's mouth opened wide in surprise, not to mention him, even the young man who greeted them just now couldn't help but gasp.

"There are a number of snakes in our shop, and there are quite a few snakes, and those snakes never got them from us." The young man hurriedly explained.

"You say those snakes were manipulated? With what control? Luo Yi asked, staring into Rong Xi's eyes.

Rong Xi took a deep breath and said firmly: "Use the flute." ”

Luo Yi's face was stunned, as if he didn't expect this answer, he muttered: "Impossible, I am the only one in the capital who has this ability, and other than that, ......"

After that, he suddenly paused, and his face became extremely ugly.

Rong Xi chased after him and asked, "Who else is there?" ”

Roy pursed his lips and didn't speak.

Rong Xi quickly glanced at Qin Niang, and then listened to Luo Yi: "Two, I really don't know who else has this ability, you probably asked the wrong person, there is still something in our store, and we will entertain you two another day." ”

This is tantamount to driving people out.

Seeing this, Qin Niang and Rong Xi were no different from continuing to stay here, and after they nodded at the boss, they turned around and went out.

After walking out of half the street, Rong Xi frowned and smelled the smell on his body, and the expression on his face suddenly became even more disgusted.

"It's okay, just go home and wash up right away." Qin Niang saw the disgust on her face, and suddenly felt that this Rong girl also had a bit of girlish innocence and cuteness, and couldn't help but hook her lips and smile.

"The smell was so loud that I was about to throw it up." Rong Xi breathed hard a few times, and let out a long breath of turbid air, "The last time I accompanied that friend, I didn't walk in, I just stood outside the door, and I could smell the disgusting smell inside." ”

"Now, we probably have a direction too, and this body doesn't smell white." Qin Niang got into the carriage and said with a smile on her eyebrows.

"Indeed, that boss Roy really has a problem, just now he clearly wanted to say that there are still people who can use the sound of the flute to control those snakes, but he stopped talking, indicating that he not only knows that person, but also has a good relationship, and he is unwilling to tell that person." Rong Xi nodded in agreement.

"Just now he hurriedly drove us out, presumably to meet the person he suspected, I believe that the murderer will be caught soon, and what we have to do now is to go back to the house and wait for the rabbit." Qin Niang poured herself a cup of tea, took a sip, and suddenly felt refreshed.

The smell in the store just now, not to mention that Rong Xi wanted to vomit, even she couldn't help it, she didn't understand, how could anyone like to visit such a store and buy those extremely ferocious looking animals to raise.

It's not as docile and cute as her dumplings at all.

Speaking of which, since the birth of the white-haired ball, it has been hating the new and hating the old all day around the new master, and it doesn't take care of her at all.

On weekdays, Ying'er is not in the house, so it doesn't know which corner to shrink to, and when the child returns to the house, it doesn't know where it jumped out again, and it stammers all kinds of flattery around the little master.

Typical fox licking.

"Shall we not follow him?" Rong Xi asked, "Isn't he going to see the person he suspects?" Isn't it going to break if you don't follow this line? ”

Qin Niang hooked the corners of her lips and said, "My secret guard has gone." ”

This kind of thing doesn't need her to explain at all, then the boss has a problem at a glance, these secret guards left by Gu Chen are extremely shrewd, and their tracking and detection abilities are first-class, so they don't need her to say that they will do it.

"Your secret guard?" Rong Xi looked at her with a look of surprise, and then lifted the curtain and looked outside, but saw nothing, but he couldn't stop being curious.

Although there are some guards in Rongguo Houfu who have good martial arts, and they will bring one or two when they go out on weekdays, she has never seen the legendary secret guards who come and go without a trace.

Moreover, when Qin Niang said that they had already gone to check, she didn't feel any change at all, how did she know?
