Chapter Eighty-Nine: Floating Life Is Like a Dream Scattered
When Ning Le and Shan Qi returned to the Golden Scale Pavilion, there were already several sturdy men in the uniforms of the Golden Scale Pavilion guarding the corridor outside the private room.
The empty private room where the black shadow was hidden before next door is also open at this moment. Several Golden Scale Pavilion servants were still carefully surveying the scene.
Ning Le and Shan Qi returned to their private room, and saw that in addition to Ren and Shan Hao, the shopkeeper Wu was also standing aside, waiting quietly.
Seeing the two of them returning, Shopkeeper Wu hurriedly came over to greet him: "Young castle master, Ning Xiao, Ning Gongzi." The subordinates are derelict in their duties, and the young castle master is asked to punish him. ”
Ning Le looked at Shan Qi in surprise.
"Ahem, Uncle Wu is Grandpa Rong's subordinate. Shan Hao explained first.
"This girl also knows about it. Ren glanced at Shan Hao complainingly, "Hmph, it's so hard to hide it from me." ”
"Hey, hey. Shan Hao had to scratch his head and smile awkwardly, "I didn't mean to hide it, I just didn't think there was any need to deliberately mention it." ”
Ning Le suddenly knew the relationship between the Golden Scale Pavilion and the Heavenly Forging Castle, and many reasons in the past suddenly became clear.
Shan Qi looked at Shopkeeper Wu with a cold face: "But what did you find?"
"The surveillance video of the corridor and other public areas found no trace of a suspicious person, and the thief should have sneaked in through the window of the private room. Judging from the inspection records of the room, that person should not have stayed here for long before he was discovered by Ning Gongzi. ”
Shopkeeper Wu presented a copper pipe with both hands: "And the subordinates found this under the partition screen wall." ”
The private rooms on the second floor of the Golden Scale Pavilion are all made of this kind of partition screen that can be flexibly removed as the wall, so as to flexibly control the size of the private room.
Originally, when a single sister and brother came to Golden Scale Pavilion to dine, they should choose a private room with more luxury and privacy on the upper floors. But today, Ren is yelling at her to be the east, and no one is allowed to rob her. Considering that the minimum consumption standard upstairs was much higher, he quietly followed her into the private room on the second floor.
"What is this?" Shan Qi took the copper pipe and looked at it carefully.
"It was supposed to be a transmitter that blows arrows, but we found a floating life in it. Ren explained.
"It's like a dream!" Shan Qi frowned.
Ning Le groaned: "This name, where does the master seem to have heard it?"
"It's a new type of poison that was developed by the Thousand Grass Pavilion two years ago. ”
Shopkeeper Wu explained: "This thing is extremely hallucinogenic and once it enters the human body, it can make people confused for a long time, and it looks like a drunk. Whether it is used for kidnapping or questioning and inducing confessions, it is very convenient. ”
"I remembered. If the master is not mistaken, this medicine originally seemed to be a by-product of the failure of Qiancao Pavilion to develop a new drug. ”
Ning Le finally remembered that Mo Tao had shown him information about this thing: "Because the medicine is violent and not easy to control, the Qiancao Pavilion is worried that this medicine is used by people with unhealthy minds, so it should ...... It hasn't been outflowed, has it?"
"It won't be Chikusakaku. "Shan Qi is categorical.
"Why are you so sure?"
Ren Qidao: "The Heavenly Forging Fort and the Thousand Grass Pavilion have been out of harmony for many years, and everyone in the whole continent knows about it. If today, if Forging Fort wants to cooperate with the Qian family to compete for the Wunan Refined Iron Ore Vein, Qiancao Pavilion will definitely be even more dissatisfied. It makes sense that they want to deal with us?"
"It's safe. ”
Unexpectedly, Shan Hao also smiled and waved his hand: "Even if Qiancao Pavilion and our Heavenly Forging Fort really get together, they won't touch me and Xiaoqi." This is a misfortune!"
Ren looked puzzled: "You two, why are you so sure?"
"Everyone knows that the Floating Life is a poison unique to the Thousand Grass Pavilion. But the thief left this medicine here, which is indeed too strange. Ning Le said thoughtfully.
"It's more than that. ”
Shan Hao explained: "Over the years, Dad and Xiaoqi have quarreled about what attitude to use towards Qiancao Pavilion. In today's Heavenly Forging Castle, Xiao Qi and I advocate repairing with the Thousand Grass Pavilion. Tonight's incident is clearly a discordant plan, wanting to make the two families completely break up. ”
"Is that so......"
Ren frowned and pondered, but he still felt a little uneasy, but he didn't want to say anything more at the moment, so he had to say: "Anyway, there are indeed people who want to be unfavorable to Hao'er and the young castle master now, so we must be more careful." ”
Shan Qi looked at Shan Hao: "It's time to go back." ”
Shan Hao nodded: "I am indeed a little tired of making so many things today." ”
"The Deputy Commander has been waiting downstairs for a long time, ready to escort you back to the inner city. ”
Shopkeeper Wu immediately took the initiative to say: "Today is the negligence of the disdainful store, which swept away your Yaxing." For this meal, please also allow your subordinates to be free of charge. ”
"Eh, that girl saved money again?" Ren blinked.
"That's how it should be. Shan Hao grimaced at the shopkeeper Wu, and then smiled again.
Shopkeeper Wu also smiled, and sent the two cards to Ren and Ning Le respectively: "I haven't congratulated Miss Ren and Ning Gongzi on successfully winning the position of guest secretary." A small gift, not a tribute. ”
Ning Le took a look. Hey, the stored value card of the Golden Scale Pavilion is still the highest denomination of the 5,000-day Yan coin.
Ren was about to excuse himself, but he was pushed back by Shan Hao: "Then thank you Uncle Wu for your kindness!"
"I hope that the eldest lady and Miss Ren will come often. Shopkeeper Wu said respectfully.
Everyone went downstairs, and as soon as they walked out of the gate of the Golden Scale Pavilion, a team of city guards greeted them.
"Young Castle Lord. Miss. The leader saluted the Shan family sisters and brothers, and then did not forget to nod to Ning Leren.
"Uncle Zhan. Shan Hao waved his hand and greeted, "Actually, I don't need to trouble you, there are brightly lit avenues all the way back to the fort from here, and I don't dare to make a mistake if I forgive those little ones." ”
"Vice-Commander, please. However, Shan Qi took the lead and walked in the forefront.
Seeing this, the deputy commander of the city's defense, Shan Zhan, immediately followed, and the two immediately talked in a whisper. The rest of the city guards protected Shan Hao and Ren in the middle, while Ning Le followed slowly at the end without saying a word.
Without saying a word all the way, the group returned to the inner city smoothly.
Shan Zhan chatted loudly with Shan Qi at the gate of the inner city and said a few innocuous words, and then led the team to leave. And Shan Hao dragged Ren to take the first step, threatening to stay with her tonight, obviously not ready to let her go back to Nachuanfang.
"I said you, sometimes you really should learn from the eldest lady. ”
Looking at the figure of the second daughter gradually moving away, Ning Le copied his hand and teased: "Why don't you just give a gift, you have to borrow someone else's hand, and you still refuse to make a noise." The eldest lady said that you are sometimes quite awkward, and she is really right. ”
Shan Qi looked at Ning Le silently.
"The denomination of a full 10,000 Heavenly Yen, even if it is discounted, it must be worth several thousand, right? Compared to the revenue of the Golden Scale Pavilion, it is no longer a small amount. ”
Ning Le took out the stored value card of the Golden Scale Pavilion and played with it twice: "A shopkeeper in front of the stage, in front of you, use such a sum of money from your single family as a favor? ”
“...... Come with me. Shan Qi no longer looked at Ning Le, and walked away.
Ning Le shrugged: "Yes, if you collect the money, you have to work." ”
