Li Xuan listened attentively for a while, and sure enough, he noticed a slight change in the rhythm of the snoring sound.

The cat's hearing is already sensitive, and coupled with his cultivation at this time, he can easily detect this slight change.

But with the signs that the snoring had suddenly stopped, Li Xuan listened patiently for a while.

It sounded good, and it made him discover something interesting.

Hadir's snoring hadn't stopped for a long time.

The loud snoring came and went, and it kept a certain rhythm, and there was no more sudden silence that had been before.

"Interesting."

Li Xuan grinned, revealing the tiger teeth on both sides, and his smile was full of ill intentions.

He jumped lightly onto the bed, came to Hadir's pillow, and looked down at the great man of the Western Regions.

Hadir didn't look very good in sleep, lying on the bed on all fours, and he didn't take off his clothes, but opened the placket to reveal his chest with dense chest hair, which rose and fell with the sound of snoring.

But just after Li Xuan jumped on the bed, Hadir's chest rose and fell a little faster.

"This kid can't get home by pretending to be asleep."

Li Xuan came to Hadir's eyes, but was forced to retreat by the smell of alcohol, and took two steps back in disgust.

Then he swung his tail and swept it lightly over Hadir's nose, but Hadir didn't respond, still snoring.

Li Xuan held back a smile, and had already confirmed that Hadir was pretending to be asleep, and for some reason he didn't dare to wake up.

And just as Li Xuan was snickering, Hadir reached out and scratched his nose, and after smacking his mouth twice, the hand that scratched his nose was naturally placed on his nose and covered his mouth and nose.

"Poof, this guy ......"

Li Xuan almost couldn't hold back.

It's just that he looked at Hadir strangely, and when he found someone breaking into his room, shouldn't he get up and deal with it as soon as possible?

Why didn't this guy dare to get up, so he pretended to sleep here.

"Is this a conspiracy?"

Li Xuan looked down at the guest room and found that there was no place to hide traps or ambushes.

He could be sure that there was nothing in this room that could threaten him.

So it seems......

Li Xuan looked at Hadir silently, and said secretly in his heart:

"It seems that you kid has his own difficulties."

Xu was stared at by Li Xuan for too long, Hadir muttered in his sleep, turned over, and lay on the bed in a lying position, his whole face buried in the quilt, only the back of his head was exposed.

Seeing Hadir working so hard, Li Xuan also put away his thoughts of teasing and concentrated on his business.

But he turned his head and saw the picture scrolls piled up in the box, and his mouth was deflated.

"Pull it down, just move it back."

"Although Mr. Shang told me not to startle the snake, Hadir already knew that someone had broken in."

"No matter how much you cover up, you're just lying to yourself."

Li Xuan looked back at Hadir who was pretending to be asleep on the bed with the quilt, and he couldn't help but smile.

Next, he swept his tail at the box, and the contents were instantly sucked into the Emperor Bone Ring, empty.

Li Xuan then concocted the same method, and took away all the other things in the guest room, leaving nothing for Hadir, including the pillow and futon on the bed, and all the clothes on Hadir's body, not even a pair of dirty pants for him.

In this way, Hadir was still snoring seriously in bed, and he had no intention of waking up at all.

"Well, it's pretty dedicated."

Li Xuan looked at the guest room that was almost emptied by himself, and after leaving Hadir, who continued to pretend to be asleep, here, he left through the window without looking back.

If it weren't for Manager Shang's instructions, Li Xuan would have wanted to rob Hadir back with him.

But Mr. Shang had previously said that he had other arrangements for him, asking Li Xuan not to move Hadir.

Of course, the plan can't catch up with the changes, and there is no way for Li Xuan to bring back so much loot, so it should be understandable that Mr. Shang is in charge.

After Li Xuan left, there was no movement in the room except for Hadir's snoring.

Even because the room was so empty, Hadir's snoring began to echo a little.

But even so, Hadir still closed his eyes tightly, and only his body curled up quietly.

I don't know if it's cold, or because it's ashamed.

……

After Li Xuan left the guest room, he did not leave immediately, but monitored the neighborhood for a while.

However, nothing unusual has been found.

Hadir's room was still snoring, and the lights weren't even lit.

"Be cautious and patient."

"Looks like this guy is really cowardly."

Li Xuan shook his head, seeing that it would be dawn in a while, he went directly in the direction of Xingqing Palace.

There were no other changes on the way, and Li Xuan returned to Xingqing Palace smoothly.

Princess Ankang and Yu'er had already slept, but Manager Shang was still waiting for news from Li Xuan.

As soon as Li Xuan stepped into Xingqing Palace, he heard the voice of Chief Manager Shang ringing in his ears.

"Ah Xuan, you're back."

Li Xuan looked left and right, but did not find the figure of Mr. Shang.

"I'm in my room, come and find me."

Li Xuan's heart suddenly moved, and he thought:

"Is this 'sound into the secret'?"

For this ability, Li Xuan is very excited.

Although he can't speak yet, when he learns to speak, he will be the first one who wants to learn this.

After all, private chat is a handy feature.

Li Xuan came to Manager Shang's room and found that the lights were still on, a pot of tea was brewed on the table, and a few small snacks were prepared.

"Tossing all night, hungry, aren't you?"

"Let's fill my stomach first."

Mr. Shang greeted Li Xuan with a smile.

This kind of intimacy naturally moved Li Xuan.

"It has to be an old secret agent, I know that I will be hungry after the mission."

Li Xuan went directly to the table, stuffed two small snacks into his mouth, and ate them.

"Ah Xuan, how is the task tonight?"

Manager Shang asked with a smile.

Li Xuan drank tea, ate snacks, and shook his tail, but threw out a lot of things.

"Huh?"

When Mr. Shang saw that there were still large-sized underwear, his smile gradually faded, and his expression became solemn.

"Ah Xuan, what is this?"

Mr. Shang pointed to the pile of debris in front of him and asked puzzledly.

Li Xuan shrugged innocently, then wagged his tail while eating snacks, and talked about what happened before.

He vigorously portrayed his own helplessness and Hadir's brazenness when he pretended to be asleep.

After hearing this, Mr. Shang couldn't help but shake his head and laugh.

"That Hadir was a bait on the countertop, so I'm probably wary."

"When you open the chest, you guess the trap has already been triggered."

"I guess that Hadir is confident in breaking the mechanism, but when he saw that he couldn't get you, he was scared."

"I'm afraid he thinks that there is still life to continue to pretend to be asleep, and it will be a dead end to face you."

Mr. Shang deserves to be an old man, and in just a few words, he analyzed Hadir's mentality at that time.

"Then I brought these things, it won't be a problem, right?"

Li Xuan asked with some apprehension.

After all, his mission today was really not good.

"It shouldn't be anything."

Mr. Shang waved his hand, signaling that Li Xuan did not need to be nervous.

"I see, there's no clue in these things."

"Of course, since you brought everything back, you naturally have to send someone to check it out, and it's good to find clues about Hadir's identity."

"As for the moment......"

Mr. Shang looked thoughtful.

To be honest, he didn't expect what Li Xuan did tonight.

But Li Xuan's unexpected behavior brought more information to Mr. Shang.

Hadir's insistence on pretending to be asleep is enough to prove a lot of things.

In the face of the intruder, Hadir and the forces behind him did not react, leaving Hadir in danger.

Moreover, according to what Li Xuan said, there were no advance arrangements around the Adasi Inn where Hadir stayed.

"That's interesting."

Mr. Shang smiled.

Li Xuan saw the appearance of Manager Shang and knew what he understood, so he immediately asked for advice.

When Mr. Shang saw that Li Xuan was asking for advice, he was immediately interested, and planned to give some advice.

"Ah Xuan, think about it, if someone throws a piece of fresh meat on the wilderness and lets the beast take it, what is the purpose?"

Manager Shang's guidance was full of comparison, and Li Xuan didn't dare to be careless, and began to think seriously.

He could understand that the fresh meat thrown on the wilderness referred to Hadir, and that they were the beasts that wanted to take the meat away.

But if we think about it according to the analogy of Mr. Shang, then what is the intention of the other party in doing this?

Li Xuan frowned and thought for a while, suddenly thought of something, and hurriedly wrote his answer with his tail.

"They want to see who the meat snatcher is!"

"That's right!"

Manager Shang nodded, looking at Li Xuan's eyes, full of teaching.

A good teacher also has to meet good students, and it is fun to teach.

"So, Ah Xuan."

"I'll ask you one more why?"

With an encouraging smile on his face, Manager Shang asked Li Xuan to continue to say the answer.

At this time, Li Xuan had already thought about the question clearly and replied confidently:

"In the whole wilderness, we are the only beasts that can smell meat!"

That's right, that's the key.

Under the guidance of Mr. Shang, Li Xuan figured out the crux of the problem.

The only people who can think of the half of the treasure map through Hadir's description are themselves.

Therefore, the other party doesn't care how Hadir is treated at all, this is a piece of "fat" that can be taken away, that is, a bait.

The purpose of the other party from the beginning was only to identify the target of his hunting.

As for why they didn't set a trap directly around the bait, it is estimated that they have the same considerations.

Monk Li Xuan never believed that the other half of the treasure map would be on Hadir's body.

Why should a hunter use his life as bait?

In this battle, isn't what they care about most about each other is the half of the treasure map in each other's hands?

If this thing is taken away, the battle will be decided.

But thinking of this, Li Xuan was suddenly taken aback.

"Haven't I already shown my flaws tonight!?"

Compared with Li Xuan's nervousness, Manager Shang was very calm, and saw him speak:

"Ah Xuan, first of all, it's just a cat."

"Secondly, your perception is much stronger than that of ordinary people."

Li Xuan knew that the ordinary people in Manager Shang's mouth were most of the secret agents.

"Finally, I've been keeping an eye on the capital's movements tonight."

After counting the three points with his fingers, Mr. Shang smiled proudly, leaned back slightly, and leaned back on the back of the chair.

After hearing this, Li Xuan couldn't help but shake his head and laugh.

"Okay, so I'm going to be a bait."

Li Xuan's mind was not slow, and he immediately understood what Mr. Shang meant.

On the one hand, sending Li Xuan out to investigate Hadir is naturally best if it goes well.

On the other hand, even if there is a problem on Li Xuan's side, Mr. Shang has arrangements on his side.

Mr. Shang returned the favor with his own way, and used the same method as the other party to fish.

Judging from the current results, I am afraid that both sides will have air forces tonight.

"So what do we do next?"

"Is Hadir just like that?"

Although he figured out the current situation, Li Xuan didn't know what to do next.

"When you were stalking today, I also investigated this person."

"This guy is not a businessman in the Western Regions, but a wanted criminal."

"Although I don't have a lot of blood debts, I have several lives."

"Just a few months ago, this guy was still robbing the road in the Western Regions."

When Mr. Shang said this, Li Xuan also understood.

In other words, Hadir is an authentic temporary worker, and he is here to deliver it to the capital.

"Then at least you can find someone to come into contact with, right?"

Regarding Li Xuan's optimism, Mr. Shang shook his head:

"The other party is so cautious, it is impossible to make such a low-level mistake."

After all, Mr. Shang is a professional, and Li Xuan still agrees with his opinion.

But in this way, their side seems to be in a dilemma, and it seems that they can only wait patiently for the flaws to appear like each other.

Seeing Li Xuan's bitter face, Mr. Shang touched his head, and then continued:

"It's a tricky thing to do, but your actions tonight might give us a good opportunity."

Li Xuan raised his head, still frowning slightly.

Seeing Li Xuan's cute appearance, Mr. Shang smiled and stretched out his hand to smooth his brows for him, and explained:

"An outlaw like Hadir would certainly not be willing to die."

"When he finds out he's in big trouble, what do you think he's going to do?"

"What will happen to the man who sent him as bait?"

When Li Xuan heard this, his eyes immediately widened, and after glancing at Mr. Shang, a wicked smile immediately appeared.

"Ginger is still old and spicy!"

"Hadir, it seems that you won't be able to leave the capital this time."

"Assert ......"

The little cat laughed proudly in his heart, and Mr. Shang was also amused by his appearance.

……

Early the next morning.

Adasi Inn.

A large man in ill-fitting clothes hurried down from the upper floor, and when he left the door of the inn, he joined the busy crowd of people in the morning market, and soon disappeared.

On the street, Abu yawned and went to the boss to start work, only to pass by this man.

After a while, Abu came to the Adasi Inn and knocked on the familiar door.

But the door opened, revealing an empty room.

Abu came in and looked around, scratched his head, and wondered:

"Huh, what about people?"
