Chapter One Hundred and Five: Who is the Thief
When Wu Jinyu was talking to the boy, it happened to distract everyone.
Xia Wanqing's aggressive eyes swept at the crowd standing in the hall, and her gaze fell on the boss's head.
She moved quietly to Ah Fei's side, and said in a voice that only two people could hear: "Compare the figure of the man in black with the figure of the boss, is it similar?" ”
Ah Fei's brows furrowed, and he almost roared out with a flash of inspiration.
Xia Wanqing raised her foot and kicked Ah Fei, and in an instant, Ah Fei let out a strange scream.
At this time, the innkeeper walked up to Wu Jinyu's side and said impatiently: "How much can a child know, it must be that the thief has been eyeing your things for a long time and followed all the way." ”
Contrary.
Xia Wanqing carefully observed the boss's eyes, her eyes dodged and she was in a hurry to put aside the matter.
She walked up to the boss with a burning gaze, "Can we search the rooms of a few guys in your inn?" ”
The boss snorted frankly, "What are you doing in the middle of the night tossing so many useless things!" Tomorrow morning, tomorrow morning, it will not be too late to search for the guests of my inn when all the guests have left. ”
I can't wait until tomorrow morning, at this point, the bride price is still in the inn, if it waits until tomorrow morning, I'm afraid it will be transferred long ago.
Xia Wanqing was deliberately wrongly guided by the boss to investigate the room of the guy in the inn, and Hao Hao Tang searched for it, but found nothing.
The other guests had been waiting impatiently for a long time, standing at the corner of the stairs, in the corridor on the second floor, and talking about it.
Xia Wanqing swept her eyes to the boss, "And your room hasn't been searched." ”
The boss immediately looked like a fried rooster, "I'm the owner of the inn, how can I do that kind of immoral thing?" ”
"I don't know if you have done anything lacking in virtue, how do you treat a child?"
The reason why the boy who was interrogated was afraid of the owner of the inn should be because the boss had been suppressing the boy on weekdays.
The boss was speechless by Xia Wanqing, and his heart was weak, and he was helpless, and was urged by other guests to reluctantly agree to be searched, "Go search, if you don't find anything, just rest and report to the customs tomorrow!" ”
Xia Wan snorted coldly, and led a few members of the security team to search in person, and Wu Jinyu and the little boy also followed.
The room is not big, neatly arranged, and even the water in the teapot on the table is still warm.
Xia Wanqing twisted her eyebrows and pondered, and then said in a low voice: "It takes about an hour for the boiling water to completely cool down, and it is only an hour to lose the bride price, and this pot of tea is still warm, which proves that the boss has made a pot of tea in an hour." ”
Ji Baishan stood next to Xia Wanqing, pulled the corner of Xia Wanqing's clothes, and reminded Xia Wanqing in a low voice: "Lady, when we go out, we must have evidence, otherwise it will be everyone in our company who will suffer." ”
Xia Wanqing sneered: "Don't worry, I won't wronged any good people." ”
Then his gaze shifted to the chair next to the bed, and there was a set of clothes that had just been changed, stained with some mud, as if he had been somewhere else.
After Ah Fei and a few brothers finished searching, they reported to Xia Wanqing: "Sister Wanqing, there is no room in this room. ”
The boss was standing at the door, and Ah Fei's words, he heard them word for word.
also looked ecstatic, "These distinguished guests, come out quickly, rest ......"
"Yes, the bride price he stole was hidden in a small room behind the cupboard!"
Before the words fell, the boy's immature voice resounded throughout the room, and the boss's face changed greatly, and he scolded: "Little boy, what are you talking nonsense!" ”
The little boy obviously dodged in the direction of Xia Wanqing, his neck shrunk a little, and he said firmly: "What I said is true!" ”
Xia Wanqing just coldly ordered: "Ah Fei, this cabinet has been dismantled!" ”
The moment the cabinet door opened, everyone gasped!
Behind this cabinet was connected to a small room, just behind the inn, and the window was still open, and there was a rope hanging from the window.
In that small room, there were a few boxes of things, and a red baggage!
It was Xia Wanqing's lost bride price of An Nanqing.
"Everyone's stolen goods, boss, do you have anything to say?" Xia Wanqing turned around, stared at the boss with a sharp gaze, and said word by word: "As soon as the morning dawns, we will send you to see the official!" ”
The boss was full of panic, and knelt in front of Xia Wanqing with a "poof", "Don't send me to see the official, if I see the official, my only inn will also be blocked, I am the owner of a small inn, I have never seen so much money, so I have a bad mind, please raise your noble hand and spare me." ”
Annan trembled with anger, she stretched out her hand and pointed to the boss's front door, and scolded: "You still have the face to beg for mercy?" ”
Xia Wanqing smiled mildly and asked An Nanqing: "What are you going to do with this person?" ”
Wu Siyu, who had been following Wu Jinyu to watch a good show, suddenly jumped out and said angrily: "A heinous person like this should have been cut off from his children and sent to castration!" ”
The boss's face was full of fear, and he was about to pee.
In front of him, Xia Wanqing leaned over and stared at the boss playfully, "It's not impossible to let you go, it depends on your sincerity." ”
"Girl, please say, if I can do it, I will never give up."
The other brothers were curious about Xia Wanqing's next thoughts, only to see the bright-eyed woman hook her finger at the little ghost and signal the little ghost head to come over.
Xia Wan said indifferently: "Take out your brand." ”
She took the sign of the little ghost head and handed it to the boss, "See clearly, the people who will hold this kind of sign in the future are all members of the security team of Sanxi Village, I want to develop you here into a site, and our people will respond well in the future, if you can't do it, how can you steal the bride price today......"
The corners of her lips slowly blurred a little curve, and she smiled meaningfully, and then said, "Your hands and feet have been cut off for you!" ”
"I promise! I promise! ”
The boss kept repeating these three words, and a lot of sweat broke out on his forehead, and he really wanted to sincerely regret it.
Xia Wanqing pushed the little boy in front of the boss, "In the future, this little boy will also be a member of our security team, if you move his finger again, you should know the consequences." ”
"I will, I will definitely offer him as an ancestor."
The little boy walked up to Xia Wanqing, and his clear eyes seemed to be sprinkled with some stars, bright and simple.
He looked up at Xia Wanqing and thanked him sincerely.
Xia Wanqing nodded, and instructed the brothers in the security team: "Carry the bride price back to Wu Jinyu's room." ”
A group of people walked out of the boss's room, and the other guests who were still yawning and watching the show sighed.
Sarcastic boss: "Are you a thief shouting to catch a thief?" I'll never come to your inn again! ”
The boss apologized to each guest with his tail between his legs, as if a farce had happened, and quickly dispersed......
When I returned to the room again, it was almost the third watch.
Xia Wanqing didn't feel sleepy, she leaned on the side of the bed, and kept looking at the direction of the window.
Ji Baishan approached cautiously, holding her with both hands from behind, "Lady, the matter of the theft of the bride price has been resolved, what else do you have on your mind?" ”
"I'm going to set off at dawn, it's good to bring a few people from the security team, and they are also the first time to follow me on a mission, and ten kilometers ahead is the place where I encountered bandits when I protected Wu Jinyu when I went to Liuzhou last time, that group of people are outlaws, very fierce, I can deal with it alone, I don't want to joke with the lives of the brothers, besides, Wu Jinyu, Wu Siyu, and An Nanqing don't know martial arts."
Her head rested lightly on Ji Baishan's shoulder, and she expressed her concerns.
The man pinched her cheek and said softly, "With me, we can protect them, go to sleep." ”
He took advantage of Xia Wanqing's inattention, so he pressed on her, only to hear Xia Wanqing can't help but laugh coquettishly, and the room has become charming again.
Next.
They were sober and simple enough to have breakfast with a group of brothers, and then set out on their way again.
The carriage wobbled and traveled several kilometers.
Xia Wanqing lifted the curtain and looked at the terrain, and said to Ah Fei: "Let the convoy stop!" ”
Everyone got out of the carriage and stood in a row, waiting for Xia Wanqing to speak.
"We are about to enter the dangerous realm, there will be bandits, and bandits will be infested, if you find something bad ahead, immediately whistle as a signal, and everyone will be on alert!"
"Yes!"
Xia Wanqing gave a sonorous and powerful order, and all the brothers responded in unison.
Seeing that they were in good shape, Xia Wanqing also relaxed a little, "Keep going!" ”
The last time I passed by here was at twilight, and today it was a blue sky and a white day, Xia Wanqing had carefully calculated, maybe there was no danger.
This road belongs to the business road, and there are many merchants who pull goods, and there are also dart teams who take this road.
The shrill whistle suddenly pierced the sky, and Xia Wanqing pulled back to her thoughts.
The hairs on her whole body stood up, and Ji Baishan, who was sitting in the carriage with her, also raised her vigilance, and the man was like a nimble leopard, quickly jumped out of the carriage and rushed towards the carriage in front.
Xia Wanqing was speeding in the direction of the back, she stopped her steps, heard the sound of horses' hooves, and then dozens of bandits with big knives emerged from the woods on the side of the road.
The bandit leader also looked at Xia Wanqing a few times, and said arrogantly: "Leave the passage money!" Keep you safe! ”
The voice was a little familiar, Xia Wanqing carefully looked at the appearance of the bandit leader and confirmed his identity.
It was the one who failed to rob her and Wu Jinyu's carriage last time.
Only this time, their team, is very strong.
The strength should not be underestimated.
In order to delay time, she also put on a lazy pose, leaned on the side of the carriage, and asked the bandit leader casually: "Don't you remember me?" ”
The bandit leader smiled heartily: "Of course I remember, girl, we met again." ”
He shook the shiny broadsword in his hand and proudly declared war, "But I won't easily lose to a yellow-haired girl this time!" ”
