Chapter Seventy-Three: Returning the Way of the Other

Seeing that there was no one else here, Zong Jiyuan explained again,

"I mean, Wei Xingyin may not be in this pawnshop at this time, if he rushes in so rashly to catch him, not only can't he catch it, but it is also easy for him to get the news and escape, then it will be difficult to find him again."

"Yes, what the master said is right......"

Lu Hong and Ke Yi looked at each other, and turned their questioning eyes back to Zong Jiyuan,

"So what to do?"

"Wait,"

Wang Yu looked different from the two servants, and after thinking about it for a while, he put forward his own opinion,

"If we go in and make a big fuss, even if Wei Xingyin is not necessarily in the shop, if he gets the news, he really won't rush back?"

"If under normal circumstances, then Wei Xingyin is really likely to come and confront us,"

Zong Jiyuan stared at him, pondered slightly, and really considered what the other party said, and then said unhurriedly,

"However, from the situation he has been in contact with before, although this guy is domineering and arrogant, he is a cunning and treacherous person, and after the case of the Zhou family last time, he must also know that the government is arresting him, so it is more likely that he will not dare to show his face. Even if he is really unwilling and dares to come here boldly, he will definitely bring a large number of people, and the four of us will certainly not have a problem dealing with them and protecting ourselves, but if we want to catch him, I am afraid it will not be easy. ”

"That's true,"

Nodding, Wang Yu's eyes clearly showed admiration, and then he smiled,

"Don't look at your small person, but you have a lot of eyes."

"But it's not bad to have a 'scare the snake' method,"

Zong Jiyuan didn't pay attention to his joking compliment, but just made up his mind.

"I have a way, although I may not find Wei Xingyin's guy immediately, but I will also grab his tail."

"Oh? What's the solution? ”

Lu Hong and Ke Yi asked with wide eyes.

Zong Jiyuan was not in a hurry to answer, just looked up at the sky and smiled at the three of them,

"Let's find an inn to stay in first."

"Huh? What kind of solution is this? ”

Lu Hong didn't understand for a while, and blinked a few times with wide eyes and puzzlement.

Ke Yi suddenly realized, said,

"What the master means, I'll rest tonight, and I'll talk about it tomorrow, right?"

"yes, or you're smart,"

After speaking, Zong Jiyuan pointed in the direction diagonally opposite,

"Let's stay there, what do you think?"

"Listen to you, master."

Just received a compliment, Ke Yi replied with a complacent face.

The reason why I chose this inn is mainly because of its good location, between the courtyard wall on the west side and the east wall of "Xingyindang", there is only a small alley, which is very convenient to come and go at night.

When they walked into the inn together and came to the counter to ask, the answer they received was even more satisfactory, because there were still three guest rooms, and they were all upstairs, which was very much in line with Zong Yoshimoto's heart.

As the guy came upstairs, he chartered all three guest rooms, and naturally allocated one room for Lu Hong and Ke Yi, and one room for Zong Jiyuan and Wang Yu.

After dinner, the two young servants couldn't stay in their rooms, and it was impossible for them to sleep so early, so they ran to Zong Jiyuan's side together, and when they entered the door, they saw that Wang Yu was also there.

Seeing the two of them walking in, Zong Jiyuan couldn't help but smile and said,

"You two have just arrived, please go downstairs and borrow pen and ink from the shopkeeper, and ask for a few pieces of paper, I will come to use." By the way, don't forget to tell him, just say that the cost of paper and ink is in the account, and it will be calculated together when the bill is settled early tomorrow morning. ”

"Okay!"

Although I didn't know the master's intentions, it was better than staying in the room, and the two of them happily agreed and went downstairs.

Seeing that the two of them were gone, Wang Yu, who was sitting on the corner of the table, turned around and asked,

"Alas, I asked you about it just now, don't try to hide it from me, do you have any plans tonight?"

"yes,"

Zong Jiyuan played with the hosta he had just bought in his hand and said,

"Actually, the little brother didn't want to hide it from you, and since you came to ask again, then of course I will tell you the truth."

"Say, I'll listen."

Wang Yu clasped his arms to his chest and said with a smile.

While carefully wiping the hosta, Zong Jiyuan said slowly,

"Even if this Wei Xingyin is really in the store, no matter how we ask and try, it is estimated that that guy will not show up, so we can only wait until the night to sneak into the back house to find out the results."

"Well, I'm guessing you're sure you'll do that,"

Wang Yu stared at her and said,

"However, you don't always have to go on adventures alone, since I'm already here, I just want to go forward and retreat with you."

"'Advance and retreat together',"

Hearing this word, Zong Jiyuan actually laughed,

"yes, well, let's rest for a while, and then we'll go there together on the third watch."

"That's it, you don't have to sneak out alone."

While speaking, Wang Yu watched her carefully wrap the hosta in her hand and put it in her sleeve, and couldn't help but ask in surprise,

"I said, I saw you holding this hairpin like this just now, like a baby, what are you doing with this thing?"

"Can't you buy it for my fiancée?"

Listening to his disapproving tone, Zong Jiyuan joked casually.

But Wang Yu was stunned for a moment, and opened his mouth very seriously,

"Unwed, fiancée? How can you have a fiancée?! ”

"What's wrong? Can't I have a fiancée? ”

Seeing his very serious look, Zong Jiyuan couldn't help but be a little amused.

Wang Yu was very embarrassed by her, and then waved her hand and said with a smile,

"No, no, of course I didn't mean that, it's just that you're only eighteen years old, and you already have a fiancée, and I'm twenty-five or six years old, and I've lived so old that there aren't even a few women I really know, it's really 'angry'......"

"What's the injustice again?!"

Before the words fell, Lu Hong and Ke Yi, who came back from outside the door, hurriedly continued to ask.

Wang Yu laughed so much that he almost fell off the table, and said continuously,

"Yes, yes, I was talking to your master just now......"

"Alright, no kidding,"

Zong Jiyuan interrupted him at the right time, and asked the two messengers instead,

"Have you got all the pen and paper?"

"I've taken it, I've taken it, but what are you going to do with it, master?"

Ke Yi asked very curiously.

Stretching out his hand to hand over the full set of "Four Treasures of the Study" to the two of them, Zong Jiyuan smiled slightly,

"I'm going to have a 'return the other's way'."

"Huh? What does that mean......"

Lu Hong and Ke Yi both looked at each other a little confused, and together they turned their puzzled eyes to their masters.
