Chapter 139: Many Fish
After a while, Blanc walked out in a hunting suit with a hunting hat on his head, which was even more eye-catching when he looked heroic.
He was still holding a hat in his hand, and seeing Xiang Chen Liuling's stunned expression, he put the hat on Xiang Chen Liuling's head with his hand, and said with a smug smile:
"How! That's low-key enough, right? ”
“…… I think you may have any misunderstanding of the meaning of the word low-key......" Xiang Chen Liuling looked at Blank with a smile, and then remembered a question, his height and appearance alone already made him unable to keep a low profile.
Thinking like this, she really wanted to grab a handful of mud and wipe his face to see how proud he was!
"Can I go?" Blank asked with a smile.
"Yes, yes!" Xiang Chenliu rolled his eyes angrily, and Blank was disgusted by her for no reason, but he still didn't know why.
The two drove all the way to Tie Anchor Road, and Xiang Chen Liuling was shocked to realize that Tie Anchor Road was very close to Tidal Road, the sea witch Fanny's shop, and she had passed here on a carrot that night, but because she was in a trance at the time, she didn't remember it very clearly.
Unlike Tide Road, which used to be mostly witchcraft shops, Iron Anchor Road was almost always a place to sell seafood, and it was mainly engaged in wholesale, so you could ask about the strong fishy smell from afar, but I didn't notice it that night, probably because it was cleaned up after closing.
In addition to a few large wholesale markets, there are also many small traders who open shops on the street, both wholesale and retail.
Xiang Chen Liuling and Blanc went to Fang Ming's house at No. 103 and found that the door was closed and a sign was hanging on the door.
"Maybe you're not at home, or you're out, so let's ask the neighbors." Xiang Chen Liuling said, and shook to the shop selling pickled fish on the side.
The shopkeeper is a dark and fat middle-aged woman, who looks like a kind and nagging person.
"Boss, your pickled fish seems to have a lot of variety." Xiang Chen Liuling said with a smile.
"That's that! We are a century-old brand! I've been in this business since my great-grandfather! Our marinated fish recipe is exclusive! No one else! Na, look, if you want to eat spicy and red, if you want to eat sweet honey, if you want to eat sour and vinegar anhydride! Also, this sweet and sour drunken fish has a unique taste, sweet and sour, sweet and slightly spicy! Gee! Not to mention how delicious! Here, you taste a piece! ”
Xiang Chen Liuling smiled from ear to ear: "Boss, you can really praise your own goods, I say so well to you, I have to buy some of everything and go back to taste it!" In the past, I used to buy salted fish at Mrs. Fang's house next door to you. ”
"Oh, her house? Tsk, her salted fish is still good! The goods are genuine, and the people are very nice. ”
"I don't think her house is open today. I wonder if it's out? ”
"Yo, don't you know, her husband Luo Ya doesn't know where to go in the past two days, she is so anxious that she goes everywhere every day to find people, where can she take care of opening a store!"
"Eh, I remember that her husband seems to have a good relationship with her, it can't be someone outside, right?" Xiang Chen Liuling pretended to gossip and said.
The proprietress saw Xiang Chen Liuling actively loading the shopping basket, and heard her talk about these "exciting" topics, so she was naturally happy to cooperate with her and talked about the gossip of Fang Ming's family.
"That guy Luo Ya is a willing worker, he was honest before he got married, and at most he went to the bar to drink. He's a good drinker, though! And not as unrestrained as the others, anyway, I have never heard of him drunk since I met him.
Before he got married, he didn't seem to have much interest in his daughter, and some people said for a while that he didn't like women. Later, when they got married, this rumor was over. So, there are still good men in this world! This Luo Ya is silent, too good for his wife! ”
The proprietress said, her eyes turning around Blanc again, as if to gauge whether this was a good man.
"Really? I don't believe it! Where is there such a good man? Is there anything wrong with it? ”
"Yes! The biggest problem is that I don't like to talk! I don't have a lot of enthusiasm for people, and I don't communicate much with our neighbors. However, if there is something important to ask him for help, as long as he can do it, he will never refuse, what a good man. The proprietress said, as if to confirm that she was right, and nodded heavily.
Xiang Chen Liuling chatted with her for most of the day, and then she really felt a little "sympathetic". The proprietress probably chatted too happily, and gave her a salted fish before leaving.
Looking at the salted fish, Xiang Chen Liuling thought to himself: It seems that no matter whether I can solve this case or not, is this salted fish enough? Am I just a salted fish!? Alas...... Forget it.
Poor Blank, dressed in a hunting suit, turned into a human cart and threw a lot of things at him.
After asking questions all the way and gossiping all the way, I came to the conclusion that Luo Ya is a good man and is very good to his wife. Although he is taciturn, he can be regarded as an honest man who is willing to help people, and no one has seen whether he has a tattoo on his body.
It was inconvenient for the two of them to find Fang Ming with a bunch of things, so they returned to their residence first.
When Xiao Ying saw so many fish, she jumped out of her eyes excitedly, shook her tail like a water snake, and happily ran to the kitchen with a bunch of things with her ears fanned.
Seeing a bunch of food that could make Xiao Ying happy like that, Xiang Chen Liuling was really envious from the bottom of his heart.
Back in the office, Xiang Chen Liuling hurriedly contacted Fang Ming, but he couldn't get in touch.
"This Fang Ming, something shouldn't have happened, right? How could it not be contacted? Xiang Chen Liuci was on the sofa, looking at Blank in bewilderment.
"It's better to take a break and get back in touch. If you can't contact Shang Ming tomorrow, I think it's more appropriate to call the police. Blanc replied reluctantly.
Xiang Chen Liuling felt that there was only this way, so he nodded helplessly.
"Blank, we're really back, there's no news on either side! Alas, forget it, I'd better go watch Xiaoying cook! Don't let the cat eat all the fish in the kitchen! It's nothing if you eat it all, but it's not good if you eat it badly. Xiang Chen Liuling said and jumped down from the sofa and walked towards the kitchen with three swaying steps.
Blank raised his eyebrows and said to himself: Is she developing a new step again? Looks like it's really boring! When she was bored, she was sure that something would suffer, so she hurried after her to take a look, and didn't look back and even the kitchen was gone!
Thinking of this, Blanc also hurriedly chased to the kitchen.
There was a fishy smell in the kitchen, mixed with the smell of pickles, quite complicated feelings, inexplicably sour.
Mother Jiang had a bitter face, and was opening all the windows, fanning hard, and when she saw Xiang Chen Liuling, she pulled her and said:
"Miss, isn't this smell a little too rushing? It's not good to eat too many pickled products, if you want to eat fish, can't we buy fresh ones? ”
"Hehe, Jiang's mother, you're affected. These are all clues to solve the case! Xiang Chen Liuling snorted in a mysterious way.
"Really?" Jiang's mother was a little unconvinced.
Blank walked over and added quite seriously, "Really. ”。
It's true, this big pile of things bought in order to find out the news, of course, is also a clue to solve the case, and Mr. Blank will definitely not lie.
