Chapter Seventy-Six: Trouble

Su Shi was about to help him down and sit down, when two more people ran in from the back door, one was also about thirty years old, and the other was slightly younger, but he was also twenty-five or sixteen years old.

As soon as these two people saw the middle-aged man, the young man immediately shouted: "Brother Zhao, it turns out that you are here, let's find it easily." ”

While speaking, the two had already come to Su Shi, and then took the middle-aged man from Su Shi's hand, the older man looked at Su Shi apologetically, and said, "My brother is in a bad mood today, he drank a few more glasses, didn't he collide with the son?" ”

Su Shi smiled: "It's okay, since he drank too much, you can send him back to have a good rest." ”

Seeing Su Shi's magnanimity, the two of them did not blame, thanked him repeatedly, and then helped the drunk middle-aged man to leave the drunken country.

At this time, the proprietress heard the movement in the hall and hurried out, just in time to see the backs of the three people.

"Childe, what's going on?" The proprietress asked urgently.

Su Shi waved his hand and said, "It's nothing, it's just that someone broke in drunk and now his companion helped him away." ”

The proprietress was still a little uneasy, and walked to the door to look out.

Suddenly, the proprietress's pupils dilated involuntarily, and her expression suddenly became extremely shocked, and one hand couldn't help but cover her mouth.

Su Shi was confused, only to hear a plop, and then the people on the street shouted.

"Someone fell overboard!"

"Come on!"

"Do you know how to water?"

……

Su Shi hurriedly walked to the door and looked down the street, only to see that the street was in chaos, and everyone flocked to the Ngee An Bridge and both sides of the canal, pointing and pointing at the canal.

"What happened?"

The proprietress had just woken up from the shock at this time, and then looked at Su Shi in shock, and said in a trembling voice: "Someone jumped into the river just now?" ”

"Who?" Su Shi asked in a deep voice.

Obviously, the proprietress knew the person who jumped into the river, otherwise it would not be possible to have this expression.

"The person who jumped into the river is the drunk person that Childe said."

Su Shi couldn't help but be taken aback, and looked at the proprietress in a daze.

When the proprietress walked to the door, she happened to see the two people helping a drunk man towards Nghe An Bridge.

At this time, the drunken man suddenly shook off the two of them, and although he faltered, he still rushed towards the Nghe An River without the slightest hesitation.

The two obviously didn't expect such a thing to happen, and they wanted to stop it but it was too late, so they had to watch the middle-aged man disappear into the Nghe An River.

However, what happened later made the proprietress afraid.

When the two saw the middle-aged man jumping into the river, they didn't think of a way to rescue him, but glanced at each other, and slipped away quietly, and looked at the proprietress intentionally or unintentionally before leaving.

Hearing this, Su Shi's brows also furrowed, only to realize that what happened just now was not so simple, and he also fell for those two.

Those two were not friends with the drunken man at all.

Friends don't die without help, and it's impossible for them to sneak away after something happens. This behavior is more like the fear that something will be discovered by others.

At this time, Lin Mo walked back relaxedly, looked at the crowd of onlookers outside, and couldn't help asking, "What happened?" ”

"Someone jumped into the river?"

After hearing this, Lin Mo looked at the crowd of onlookers in the river and continued to ask, "Yi'an River? ”

"Hmm."

Lin Mo shook his head and sighed: "Then this person is probably dead." ”

"Why?"

At this time, the proprietress explained: "This Nghe An River seems to be horizontal and calm, but the river is very deep, there are many undercurrents under the river, and the silt at the bottom of the river is said to be more than a foot thick. ”

At this time, Su Shi looked at the crowd of onlookers and found that although there were many people shouting on the shore, none of them actually went into the water to save people.

At this time, the two officials came to the Nghe An River to learn about the situation from the crowd of onlookers, but none of them could tell the ins and outs of the matter, and most of them were just crowds.

The proprietress was scared at this time, and she didn't want to get into trouble, so she apologized to Su Shi and went back to the house.

Su Shi didn't stop him, because he also knew that this matter was not as simple as it seemed on the surface, and it happened in the capital, and even Su Shi himself might not want to take care of it.

The proprietress is just an ordinary businessman, and it is also human instinct to seek good fortune and avoid trouble, so Su Shi did not say anything about the proprietress who was silent.

Lin Mo didn't know what was going on from beginning to end, only that someone had jumped into the river, so he didn't have any other thoughts except regret.

After the officials came, most of them dispersed, and although it was rare to jump into the river, there were always three or four in a year, either because of poverty, or because of illness, or because of affection, so everyone did not seem surprised.

Lin Mo saw that everyone was dispersed, and Su Shi was still leaning on the door frame in a daze, and his brows were furrowed, his eyes were blank, and he seemed to have something in his heart.

"Childe." Lin Mo shouted softly.

Su Shi's eyes slowly focused, and then he came back and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

"Should we go back?"

"Going home?"

Lin Mo said: "I see that the son is not in good spirits at this time, why don't you go back to the house to rest?" ”

This was Lin Mo's heart, and his impression of Su Shi had changed greatly at this time, so he was particularly concerned about him.

Su Shi was not in the mood to play at this time, so he said, "It's okay, then let's go home." ”

At this time, Lin Mo's eyes fell on Su Shi's shirt, and seeing that the robe he was wearing was a little messy, as if he had been pulled with someone, he couldn't help frowning and asked, "Childe has had a dispute with someone?" ”

Su Shi followed his gaze and saw that his robe was wide open, and couldn't help but smile: "It's nothing, it was just that someone was drunk just now, and I went to help him, so that's why it's like this." ”

"Someone drunk?"

Lin Mo looked left and right, but there was no one in the drunken country except for the two of them.

Su Shi didn't explain, he was tidying up his clothes, but when he sorted out his chest, his face suddenly changed, and he was stunned.

His hands were on his chest, and his fingers could clearly feel something extremely soft in the pocket of his chest through the robe, and Su Shi could even feel that it was a piece of silk.

And Su Shi clearly remembered that he had never put anything in that pocket, in that case, where did this silk-like item come from?

Su Shi let out a wry smile, because he knew that no one other than the drunken middle-aged man would have a chance to stuff this thing into his clothes.

Then he sighed deeply, knowing that trouble was about to find him.
