Chapter 5: The Mountain Rain is Coming and the Wind is Full of Buildings (5)
Qi Bei worked hard to contribute his few brain powers: "So the wolf wants to kill me, because he is afraid of the sound of walking." They didn't know I was alive and thought I was dead, so the assassination plan was still the same, right?"
"To be sure, even at the last minute, it is possible that the assassination plan will be adjusted. How do you know that a killer won't rush out of a dark street corner with few people? Why did you choose the No. 1 restaurant in Fenglin City? Isn't this creating trouble for hiding the killer's whereabouts?"
"Will there be a lot of people in the Drunken Immortal Building?"
Every night, there are as few as eighty or ninety tables as many as hundreds, and there are four floors including private rooms and the lobby. Let's not say that it is inconvenient for the wolf to stab the party there, just say that you blindly rushed in, how are you going to find someone?"
Qi Bei was dizzy again and again: "One hundred and eighty tables, four floors, where can I find her?"
"That's it, you haven't even figured out the location of the Drunken Immortal Building, what's the use of rushing over with your eyes closed? With black eyes, you plan to find the fourth floor from the first floor? Go in one private room to take a look? I guess you haven't found anyone yet, the wolf boy has already been successfully assassinated. ”
Qi Bei suddenly came to his senses, and hurriedly begged Xiao Xiao: "It's me who didn't think it through, you show me a clear way." ”
"Then you call me Master?" Xiao Xiao smiled and giggled and played. Qi Bei was so anxious that he didn't care about arguing with Xiao Xiao about whether this "master" was worth it, so he opened his mouth and said: "Master, hurry up and help." ”
Xiao Xiao didn't dare to continue to tease him, changed his serious face, and unceremoniously put forward conditions: "Eh, what master is not master, I'm playing with you." If you want me to help, then you have to promise me: use your brain to figure it out before you do things in the future, don't rush over and get the arrows in a brute force, if I don't remind you this time, I'm afraid you'll die again. ”
"Okay, yes, yes, yes. Qi Bei said it three times in one breath, but everyone could see that he was very unconvinced in his heart, and he was forced to bow his head just because of the situation.
Xiao Xiao laughed secretly, thinking, you are still stubborn. gradually figured out Qi Bei's thoughts and thoughts, it can be said that he specializes in dealing with all kinds of disobedience, especially good at dealing with Yunju, and gradually developed a whole set of methods.
I saw Xiao Xiao squinting his eyes, and added a sentence lightly, which hit Qi Bei's heart: "Do you think that Madame Bailing's husband, Lord Yuguan, is a reckless man, or a thoughtful person?
Qi Bei opened his mouth and stammered, blushing and stumbling: "Little broken, so small, this time I know it's wrong." Please help me save her, just tell me, what can you do?"
Only then did Xiao Sha, who was satisfied, speak: "Let's assume that the location is set in the Drunken Immortal Building, if you have an assassination target, how will you carry out the assassination mission? Is it possible to rush into the gate and kill from the first floor to the fourth floor? In short, it is the private room on which floor. ”
Qi Bei shouted repeatedly: "Yes, yes, yes, this has to be clarified." ”
"There are four floors of private rooms, and it is unrealistic to look at them one by one, and the action is too big to arouse suspicion. ”
Qi Bei came up with an idea: "Do you want to ask the shopkeeper of the restaurant." ”
"Do you think the shopkeeper will be suspicious of you who inquired about the Imperial Official's dining place?"
"Seems to be suspicious of me. So what's going to be done?"
Xiao Xiao picked up a branch and drew a grid on the sand on the side of the road: "The drunken fairy restaurant arranges for Mr. to tell stories every night, the restaurant has a back-shaped structure, the entrance is in the south, and the location of the gentleman is generally in the east." ”
Qi Bei said "wow": "How do you know so clearly?"
Xiao Xiao said with a smile: "When our master is idle and has nothing to do, he likes to tell people the most." I don't know where he is tonight. Let's first analyze the possible location of Lady Bailing. ”
Qi Bei nodded again and again: "If you can narrow down the scope, it will be more convenient to find her." ”
"What do you see?" Xiao Xiao pointed to the schematic plan of the restaurant.
Qi Bei racked his brains to look at the doorway, clapped his hands and found it, and said happily: "I understand what you have to say! Mrs. Bailing has a noble status and must sit in the best position." The best location in this restaurant must be the most convenient location for Mr. Storyteller, such as the west box facing the table. ”
"That's right. The location of the private room on the west side is really good, and it is a first-class seat. With the approximate orientation, it is also easier to find the four floors. We continue to think that the first floor is noisy and the fourth floor is too high, and the boxes on these two floors tend to be the cheapest. The floor where she dined was probably the second or third floor. Xiao Xiao quickly deduced the answer, and then praised Qi Bei, giving him some confidence, "Actually, you're not very stupid, I just got up, you can deduce." ”
"Little Broken Master, you are smarter. Qi Bei laughed shyly twice, pulled Xiao Xiao and started to sprint again, "Hurry up." Knowing where she is, let's go over right away. ”
Xiao Xiao grabbed him again: "Wait, idiot, what if our assumptions don't hold?"
"Why doesn't that work?"
"Even if we deduce that Mrs. Bailing may be the place to dine, what if she is not in the Drunken Immortal Building? We have also analyzed that the restaurant has quite a large number of diners, and the assassination is not concealed enough, and it is easy to attract officers and soldiers. ”
Qi Bei frowned: "After analyzing it for a long time, I can't analyze anything." Then let's report to the police quickly. ”
"You can't report to the official. Xiao Xiao flatly refused, "There is no evidence in hand, why do you say that someone wants to assassinate her? How can you testify against Xuantong Layman? I am afraid that the Imperial Official will not only not believe you, but will also have to arrest you as an assassin." ”
"What should I do then?" Qi Bei was already anxious to become an ant on a hot pot, stomping his feet but not knowing where to go.
Xiao Xiao propped his chin and stared at the square plan drawn on the ground like a torch: "Don't worry, don't panic." Let me think about it. It's better to spend your time speculating on your opponent's possible assassination strategy than running to a restaurant with your head bored. Don't go around me, it'll clog my thinking. ”
Qi Bei could only stop and calm down, not daring to disturb Xiao Xiao's reasoning.
"The target of the assassination is a guest of the royal family of Jun'an City, and his status is very noble. If I were a killer, in order to minimize my whereabouts, I would try to avoid people's eyes and ears, choose an inconspicuous place to carry out the assassination, or disguise myself, so that no matter whether the assassination failed or succeeded, it would be easy to get out. ”
Qi Bei listened to Xiao Xiao's immersive analysis sentences, so he didn't admire it, and asked: "And then?"
"There are many people in the restaurant, and although it may mix in with the crowd, it will inevitably cause riots. Drawing a sword in full view of the Assassin and stabbing him? No, it is not good for the Assassins. His eyes suddenly lit up, and he asked Qi Bei a lot of details, "Is there only one assassin on the other side?"
