The last place where the tall and thin man disappeared was an ordinary house at the south end of the town.

What puzzled Leach was that he was very impressed by the owner of this room, and there seemed to be no one who was similar to the size of a tall and thin man.

After getting the news from the beggar that there was a suspicious person near the south gate in the middle of the night, Howard took Leach and they went door to door to check the households near the south gate on the grounds of security checks, and although they found nothing in the end, several of them still left a deep impression on them, and the house of one of them was in front of them.

The reason why Leach still recognizes this place is because when he followed Howard that day, he was startled by the long list of dead rats hanging from his door.

After inquiring, I learned that the family made a living by selling rat poison, and the dead rats hanging at the door were actually their signboard.

There was such a row of "door gods" guarding the door, and whether Lena and the others were really scared or not, in the end they were very ladylike and did not go in.

In addition to the distinctive exterior signs, the owner of the house also made a strong impression on Leach.

It was a dwarf who was only two feet tall when he opened the door to Leach. At first, Leach thought he was a child of the family, but when he looked closely, he found that the other party not only had a very old face, but also looked a little staggering when he walked, especially when the other party opened his mouth to ask what was wrong, Leach was completely sure that this man was an old man who was about to die.

Originally, this was nothing, and Leach didn't make a fuss because he hadn't seen a dwarf, so he wouldn't make a fuss, but when he and Howard walked into the courtyard and saw a stout, shirtless man nearly two meters tall, who claimed to be the son of the old man who opened the door, it was difficult for Litch not to remember the family.

After seeing the tall and thin man crutche, he finally came here, and both Leach and Howard felt a little unbelievable.

Judging from their previous investigation, this family usually only lives with the father and son, and they have never heard of anyone else living here, and the two of them also searched the small courtyard carefully last time, and did not find any space for people to hide.

In that case, then why did the tall and thin man come here, is it a trick?

With such suspicions, the two divided into two ways, one in front of the other and one after the other, blocking all the exits of the small courtyard, but until dawn, no one came out of it.

Since the other party didn't come out, Leach and Howard decided to take the initiative. Under the guise of passing by to buy rat poison, the two entered the small courtyard again.

To the surprise of the two, there were still only the father and son in the small courtyard, who had a huge difference in size, and there was no tall and thin man in sight.

Helpless, the two had to go home.

"You're just coming back?" Back at the hotel, as soon as Leach told Lena and the others what happened last night, Tali complained with hatred, "If you don't find anyone, then you won't go to someone to dig that yard upside down, I don't believe that a big living person can disappear in vain!"

"What if we make a mistake?" "Tali's method Leach hadn't thought about it, and had proposed it to Howard, but apparently as the commander of the guards, he also had his own concerns, "In case that person has already left early while the two of us are not paying attention, then wouldn't it be a big joke for us to recklessly dig up someone's house, how should we compensate them when the time comes, and how should we explain it to them?"

Howard's concerns don't need to be so troublesome at all in Tali's opinion, as long as he is compensated afterwards, everything else can be ignored.

Seeing that the two were about to quarrel because of this disagreement, Saya hurriedly said, "Actually, there is no need to be so troublesome. Assuming that the man did not leave the courtyard, it means that there must be a secret door in it, in this case, we only need to find the secret door, we don't have to dig three feet into the ground at all, if you want me to say, just a few of us are enough, there is no need to trouble others at all. ”

Saya's compromise was unanimously approved by everyone, and it wasn't long before the group came to the gate where the dead rats were hung.

Seeing Leach and Howard come to the door again, the dwarf old man looked very surprised: "Why are the two guests here again, are they not enough to buy the medicine in the morning?

"Neither!" Before Leach and Howard, who were at the front, could speak, Tali jumped out, "We suspect you have a problem here, so let's check it out!"

Seeing that it was a lovely little girl who spoke, the old dwarf laughed: "Little girl, are you joking with me? Old man, I have lived here for most of my life, and this is the first time I have heard that there is a problem with my house." Besides, I remember that these two guests seemed to have come to search just a few days ago, and they didn't find anything, so why do they want to check it today?"

"Last time didn't count, the two of them were too careless, so this time we have a few more people, and we will definitely find out the problem!"

If Leach had said this to Howard, it would definitely have angered the owner, but Tali's statement made people angry, but seemed a little coquettish.

Sure enough, the old dwarf man not only didn't get angry when he heard this, but replied in a tone like teasing his granddaughter: "Okay, well, since the little girl wants to search for it, just don't spoil the old man's medicine!"

Being coaxed as a child, let Tali not mention how tired she is, and when she was about to reason with the dwarf old man, Saya grabbed her, which made her remember that they were not here to quarrel.

The gate was open, and a group of mermaids entered.

"Old man, isn't your son here?" Seeing that the strong man he saw last time was not there, Leach asked casually.

"Hehe, he went out of town to pick herbs. The old dwarf's face flickered, and then he pretended to be very casual and led Leach and them inside.

The old dwarf's home was not large, except for a small courtyard, with only two bedrooms and a storage room for miscellaneous items and herbs.

Because of the simplicity of the structure, it didn't take long for Leach to search the entire residence, but they still found nothing.

"No, how could it not be?" The most disappointed person was none other than Tali, who had promised that she would definitely find out something.

"Hehe, didn't I say it a long time ago, old man, I can't have a problem here, now don't worry, right?"

"Sorry to disturb you, let's leave. No matter how unwilling they were in their hearts and failed to grasp the evidence, Leach and the others could only leave in disgrace.
