Chapter 153: Tailgating
Han Shuangyi covered his mind and looked at Zhen Chutian a little confused.
When Zhen Chutian heard this, he tightened his hands and trapped Han Shuangyi in his arms, probably feeling Zhen Chutian's emotions at that moment, and they all looked at Zhen Chutian for unknown reasons.
"Can we stay here for a day? I always felt that something was wrong, and let's see if those little beggars would show up at the inn. ”
It seemed that he had just realized that his movements were a little too much for Han Shuangyi, and he couldn't help but relax a little, Han Shuangyi also took this opportunity to leave Zhen Chutian's arms, and after hearing Zhen Chutian's obviously tired words, he moved to Zhen Chutian's side little by little.
"They didn't see me yesterday, so they didn't know we were here, I don't know what you're going to do, Sister Hongling?"
Han Shuangyi felt that he couldn't comfort Zhen Chutian, so he could only divert Zhen Chutian's attention.
"Can we stay another day?"
Zhen Chutian didn't answer Han Shuangyi's words, but just looked at Gu Chenghan and asked.
"Naturally, it is okay, we went out this time to inspect, and we need to take care of the things that can be encountered during this inspection, not to mention one day, even if it is a few more days."
It's a little funny, Gu Chenghan couldn't help but reflect in his heart whether he had done something somewhere, why Zhen Chutian felt that he would not agree to her request, and at this time, not only Zhen Chutian felt that there was a problem, but Gu Chenghan also felt like this, so naturally he would not stop it.
"Sister Chu Tian?"
Seeing that Zhen Chutian didn't talk to him, Han Shuangyi couldn't help but feel a little anxious.
"Shuangyi, do you remember, what does that woman look like? And how do you answer her? ”
Seeing that Gu Chenghan had already agreed to his words, he couldn't help but feel a little happier, and it happened that Han Shuangyi looked at himself unwillingly, remembering what Han Shuangyi said before, he couldn't help but ask.
"I always remembered what Sister Chu Tian said, so naturally I didn't pay attention to the person, but the woman insisted on talking to me, I said that I had my mother and father to follow me, and they arrived soon, so the woman walked away with some regret."
"I can't remember the appearance, I remember that the man was a little fat, and then there was a black mole the size of a soybean on the left side of the woman's nose."
Although Han Shuangyi is very interested in solving the case, Zhen Chutian has not taught Han Shuangyi how to describe people, so after knowing this, Zhen Chutian praised Han Shuangyi with some happiness.
There may be many people with black moles on their faces, but the left side of the nose is rarely there, and it is difficult to cover up a black mole the size of a soybean.
Before he could continue to say something, Zhen Chutian saw what seemed to be a few children flashing by, and after coming out of the backyard, he hurriedly ran towards the back door.
At this time, there were still few people in the post station, and most of them were eating, so they naturally ignored the people in the post station.
Handing over Han Shuangyi to Yu Linglong, Zhen Chutian got up and chased after the children who had just left, Zhen Chutian, who had always been unforgettable, naturally saw that the backs of those children were a little familiar.
When I got out of the door of the post station, I looked around but did not see the figure of a child, and I was a little depressed, and I saw that there seemed to be some movement on the grass in the distance.
was about to walk over quietly, but was pulled by Gu Chenghan and stopped.
subconsciously wanted to fly Gu Chenghan out of the handsome, but Gu Chenghan took a step forward to see his intentions clearly and dodged.
glanced at Zhen Chutian with a complicated expression, when the other party was talking, Gu Chenghan hurriedly covered Zhen Chutian's mouth, and after seeing that Zhen Chutian was no longer struggling, he slowly let go of Zhen Chutian's mouth, and walked forward with Zhen Chutian without saying a word.
Although his face was full of doubts, Zhen Chutian knew that now was not the time to ask, but he just looked at the figure of Gu Chenghan who had been walking in front, but he was thinking about other things out of time.
Gu Chenghan quickly found the children that Zhen Chutian was looking for, and the two of them stood behind the tree, watching the ragged children stop by a small river, chattering and not knowing what to say.
"This is the way to the capital."
Seeing that Zhen Chutian was puzzled, Gu Chenghan just thought for a while and then told Zhen Chutian.
"So they're really little beggars?"
Zhen Chutian's mouth opened wide when he heard this, and he couldn't help but ask curiously.
When he knew that these children came to the post station from far away, Zhen Chutian's heart was like Han Shuangyi, he was deceived, but he never thought that these children were really walking!
"I don't know the whole picture, I'm following and seeing."
Gu Chenghan frowned and said in a low voice.
At this time now, I really can't say much, the first few children are still walking towards the front, if they delay too much, I'm afraid they will see the figure in a while, even if there is some wonder in their hearts why Gu Chenghan knows what he wants to do, and he follows out so without hesitation, his heart is naturally happy.
A few little beggars didn't know that someone was following them, and they seemed to be a little happy when they got up in the morning, and they chatted all the way.
Walking towards the capital non-stop, when they arrived in the capital, they became timid again, completely different from the appearance of Fang Cai on the road, and glanced at each other, their eyes full of interest.
"That kid seems to have injuries on his body? I remember that yesterday he picked me up and there was no thing. ”
Frowning and looking at the arm that one of the children had just leaked out because of too much movement, the bruise marks on the arm, Zhen Chutian was absolutely wrong, it was definitely a scar, and it was a new trace.
Hearing this, the two of them frowned more and more, and continued to look at them in silence.
The immature little face was full of smiles, and he looked at a person passing by in front of him with joy, hoping that a kind person would find out, and then kindly give away some unwanted food or broken silver taels.
Probably because today's luck was not too good, he didn't even gain anything in the afternoon, even if it was a long distance, but Zhen Chutian felt their despair and hunger.
In the morning, Zhen Chutian and Gu Chenghan both came with them after breakfast, but when they came to the capital, they didn't mention a word about going to dinner, they just watched the children in front of them in silence step forward cautiously again and again, and finally retreated back because they were disgusted by those ordinary people, and if they were unlucky, they would be scolded a little angrily.
"Two, I see you seem to be watching those kids all the time?"
Some couldn't stand it, and were about to turn away, but they were stopped by someone.
The man was dressed as a small chef, with a large strip of white cloth around his waist, looking at him with a smile on his face, Zhen Chutian's expression moved slightly, and his face was more happy.
"yes, shopkeeper, you see these kids too? We've all been here all day, and we're a little hungry, so why don't we go to your stall and talk while eating? ”
Naturally, he couldn't expect Gu Chenghan to stand up and talk more, Zhen Chutian thought that he had to shoulder the communication between the two of them now, on this day, Gu Chenghan could accompany him to play crazy, and he shouldn't let anyone Gu Chenghan go back hungry with him, besides, the person in front of him seemed to really know something, thinking of this, Zhen Chutian became more and more enthusiastic to greet him, but he didn't see Gu Chenghan's darker face behind him.
The shopkeeper was a little trembling, but looking at Gu Chenghan's face, although his face was not very good, he did listen to Zhen Chutian's words, so he cheered himself up and pretended not to see Gu Chenghan, and calmly took Zhen Chutian to the side of the stall that seemed empty.
Although it is on the side of the street, it is better to be clean, seeing this, Zhen Chutian breathed a sigh of relief, he already had a dirty and messy imagination in his heart, and he never thought that it would be okay with the past.
After ordering two wontons, Zhen Chutian saw that Gu Chenghan had no objection and looked at the store intently, but her meaning was clearly written on her face.
The shop was also a simple one, and let his daughter-in-law prepare the wontons, so he did it, and the street vendors naturally didn't know the identities of Zhen Chutian and Gu Chenghan, thinking that they were just a young couple passing by on the street, probably because they couldn't get pregnant for some reason, so they happened to see these sensible and well-behaved children, so they paid more attention.
Thinking of the reason he had just imagined, the shopkeeper looked at Zhen Chutian and Gu Chenghan with a little more pity that he couldn't say clearly.
"Those children are also miserable, in the past, they were able to share some unwanted food by virtue of their well-behaved and sensible, but in today's realm, the people themselves are just enough to eat, who has the surplus food to feed these children, even if there are a few who still have some assets, but they are unwilling."
sighed slightly, he is the same today, the hawkers on the street are not as good as the big restaurants, and there have never been any customers who have come forward for a whole day, so he cautiously stepped forward after seeing Zhen Chutian and the others, thinking that he could buy a bowl or two of wontons before closing the stall.
Fortunately, the shopkeeper looked at Zhen Chutian and Gu Chenghan to talk a little, although the man's face looked as black as charcoal, but he never interrupted the woman's words, and he couldn't help but feel a little funny in his heart, it was obviously a jealous look, and he couldn't help but stay away from Zhen Chutian again.
"So they often beg for nothing?"
Zhen Chutian felt that it was a little difficult for him to speak, after all, looking at them before, Zhen Chutian thought that their daily begging would be able to maintain his own life, but he never thought that the truth was like this.
"Not really, I often see them at noon, but I don't know why one or two of them are always injured, it stands to reason that although these passers-by refuse to give alms, but they will never hit people, this is really incomprehensible, they are okay, but beggars, eat the last meal without the next meal, these are too normal."
The shopkeeper only knew something about it, although Zhen Chutian still wanted to continue asking, the person didn't know, the two didn't force it, and left after settling the account, but Gu Chenghan left an extra piece of silver on the table.
Although Fang Cai's words didn't seem to ask anything, one sentence in them made Zhen Chutian pay some attention.
"The shopkeeper seems to have said that they often have scars on one or two people, and I have observed them for a day, and I always feel that they seem to be different from ordinary little beggars, you have this kind of thought."
whispered to the person next to him, as for calling Zhen Chutian, it was changed on his own initiative, after all, they are still outside, so naturally they can't call adults at will, after all, it's easy to do bad things, Gu Chenghan doesn't care about this, but after hearing Zhen Chutian's words, he didn't know what he was thinking after looking at Zhen Chutian.
