"I can find out the rat's nest, but it will take time, but are you sure that there is only one way for the snake to invade?" asked Li Rong. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The four of them looked at each other, and the three of them shook their heads, but one of them pinched his chin and said, "Could it be that someone brought it in?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone's first thought was "this man is crazy". The beast tide is coming, who will bring poisonous snakes in to harm people?

"Your idea is really fresh, the beast tide outside is attacking the city, and the people in the entire fortress are terrified, who dares to get the poisonous snake in? Even if he is bold, but through what channel did he get in? The four city gates are locked, is it possible that he can still conjure it up?" one sneered.

"Not necessarily. The man shook his head and said, "Don't forget, big guys, there is a group of people in the fortress who can change into living creatures, and if a poisonous snake comes out of their hands, then I will not be surprised at all." ”

"You mean businessmen?" Li Rong keenly captured the object of the candidate's words.

The man nodded and said: "It's a merchant, there is no trade route for buying and selling goods from a merchant, basically what you want, he can give it to you immediately, this is the rule of the battlefield of the formation, then it is not difficult to understand that the merchant can conjure a poisonous snake." ”

"But the question is, even if the merchant can conjure a poisonous snake, why would he do it?

The man thought for a while, frowned, and said, "Maybe it's for revenge?" I don't know, after all, we have been here for a short time, and I don't know what happened in the fortress in the past two months, Li Rong, you might as well think about it carefully, have you offended any merchants. ”

Li Rong thought about it for a while, and really came up with two objects.

The first is the president of the Chamber of Commerce, the current president of the Chamber of Commerce will be greatly impacted after the launch of the monument concept, if he is a person who is greedy for power and has a strong heart, then it is not impossible to do this kind of thing that harms others and is not beneficial to himself.

However, Li Rong's suspicion of him is not very serious, after all, he can be the president of the Chamber of Commerce first, and he can't do it without a dim sum machine. Now it is the period when the beast tide is attacking the city, and if he is discovered doing this, then he will become the target of public criticism and be completely finished.

Li Rong's second suspect has no direct contact with him, but he is the defendant in a case handled by Zhang Kaiyu.

That's right, it's the restaurant owner!

Li Rong suspected that he was well-founded, first of all, the owner of the restaurant was not satisfied with Zhang Kaiyu's verdict, and even thought of using other means to retaliate, which was later shown by his joint merchants' strike and protest;

When the allies started business, they obviously abandoned the restaurant owner, at this time, people's loneliness, despair, and resentment are often magnified, and he has a similar criminal record, so he will naturally be regarded by Li Rong as the number one suspect.

"I think I know who it is. Zhang Kaiyu said suddenly.

Similar to Li Rong's thoughts, Zhang Kaiyu was also suspicious of the restaurant owner, because in his impression, the only businessman who had a direct conflict with the Marshal's Mansion was the restaurant owner.

"Who is it?" the three asked.

"The owner of the restaurant. Zhang Kaiyu replied.

Li Rongxin said sure enough, his suspicion of the restaurant owner is also greater, in addition to the convenience and particularity of the profession of "businessman" itself, a big reason comes from the restaurant owner's livelihood.

The fortress merchants are a group, each with a different livelihood, and the only ones who can directly take out the poisonous snake are pharmacies and restaurants.

Poisonous snakes can be made into delicacies and wine, and can be used by doctors and doctors to make medicinal materials, so only those who operate these two businesses are most likely to get poisonous snakes quietly.

However, among these two professions, the restaurant is most likely to have live snakes, after all, fresh live snakes are used for brewing and cooking, and sun-dried snake plates can be used for medicine.

All the arrows pointed to the same target, and Li Rong immediately made a decision and sent two militiamen to the restaurant to get people.

The restaurant owner hasn't gone out much in the past two days, he has things in his heart, he is restless, and he is afraid that he will be seen as flawed when he goes out.

But just now, a piece of news reached the ears of the restaurant owner, which made him panic and more anxious.

He walked around the room, cold sweat oozing from his forehead, anxious like an ant on a hot pan.

Although the person behind him has already spoken, no matter what happens, he will try his best to protect him, but he always feels weak, after all, it is human life, and this is not in his plan at all.

That's right, the person who threw the snake was the owner of the restaurant, but in the imagination of the owner of the restaurant, he only wanted to make some trouble for the militia and the marshal's mansion in the fortress, and he didn't want to kill the lives of ordinary people, but things went off the track he expected, and the two families died, which directly pushed him to the edge of the cliff, as long as he took a wrong step, he would be doomed.

Such a big thing happened, the restaurant owner was completely unprepared, he was afraid that someone would find out that he did it, otherwise even if the person behind him tried to protect him without worry, his reputation and the restaurant would be completely ruined.

"Knock, knock, knock!" Just as the owner of the restaurant was gone, a series of unhurried knocks sounded on the door.

When the restaurant owner heard that this was the agreed code, he hurriedly stepped forward to open the door.

It wasn't the expected person who walked in, but an inconspicuous old slave beside the person.

"What about the president? Why didn't he come? When something so big happened, he didn't have anything to tell me?" the restaurant owner asked when he saw that there was no one else outside the door, and he couldn't help but close the door and come to the visitors.

The old slave glanced at the restaurant owner with squinted eyes, and said with some disdain: "What are you panicking about, a little thing scares you?"

"It's a trivial matter, you said it lightly, I just wanted to make some trouble for the Marshal's Mansion, I didn't want to hurt anyone, but now that I'm dead, maybe the Marshal's Mansion will find out about me, can I not be in a hurry?" the restaurant owner said hysterically.

The old slave snorted, sat down on the table of the eight immortals in the room, poured himself a cup of tea, took a sip, found that the tea was cold, frowned and took a sip, and said: "Those who become big things are not informal, isn't it just a few people who die? As long as you keep your mouth shut and bite to death and don't admit it, my master will naturally have a way to save you." ”

"What you said is true, will the president have a way to save me?" said the restaurant owner excitedly.

The old slave stood up and walked to the door, and said, "Don't you know who my lord is?" Don't worry, no matter how far things develop, as long as you don't let go of your mouth, my lord will have a way to let the Marshal's Mansion let you go." ”

"That's good, that's good......" The restaurant owner received a positive reply, as if he had taken a reassuring pill, and the whole person was relaxed. (To be continued.) )
