Although Ye Caitang was very depressed, this was on the territory of the Xia family, and Xia Yue couldn't ignore it.

As soon as he heard that there was a dead man, the people who were playing were panicked, and hurriedly ran out, Xia Yue frowned slightly when he saw this situation, Ye Caitang also felt that something was wrong, and said in a low voice: "Let's stop them all." ”

I don't know what the situation of the dead person is, but what if the murderer is mixed in, won't he just run away?

But there are hundreds of people on this boat, and it is night and on the shore, and it is not so easy to stop everyone.

Although Xia Yue has people under him, only the two of them came out today, and even Wang Tong Liu Sha disliked it, it's not easy to do, right?

Ye Caitang glanced at Xia Yue in embarrassment, but Xia Yue was not in a hurry.

It's just that now the people are in chaos, not only the people below are running out, but the people upstairs are also running down, chaotic, the two are in the crowd, Ye Caitang was suddenly squeezed, and then Xia Yue finally found a good opportunity, reached out to wrap her arms around her waist, and took the person in her arms.

"Be careful." Xia Yue gave way to the side, and Ye Caitang bumped into him and had to stick to him.

Xia Yue was obviously quite satisfied, someone had suggested to him before, to bring the girl to play in a crowded place, it was really a good suggestion.

Ye Caitang was speechless when he saw Xia Yue smiling a little.

My lord, are you really okay like this? Although this is not in the capital, the whole world is not the king's land, and Jiangzhou is your father's place, so you still have to manage the things that should be managed.

The place where the boat docks is a platform made of wooden planks, which is equivalent to a wharf. As long as the people on the boat get on the platform, they can leave in all directions, and they can't chase them back.

But Xia Yue was not in a hurry at all, and said unhurriedly: "Don't panic......

What do I have to panic about, Ye Caitang said in his heart that I am just a small man with a monthly salary of three taels, and besides, I am on vacation.

Ye Caitang scolded in his heart and looked out, but something strange happened.

The people who ran to the platform, and were about to leave the platform, retreated again.

More than a dozen little guys came out of nowhere, dragging something on the edge of the platform, Ye Caitang squinted his eyes and saw that it was a wooden fence section by section.

When the fence was pulled up, it was one by one, but it was tightly fitted and put together into a half-man-high fence, which stopped the people who were about to run out.

"Don't panic, everybody." A man's voice pierced through the noise and chaos and resounded in the crowd: "Don't run around, don't leave, there is a murder in the painting boat now, the murderer may be on the boat, and once he leaves, he will become a suspect." ”

As soon as he said this, the panicked crowd suddenly became even more flustered.

The man said again: "We have reported to the police, please keep quiet, stay where you are and don't move, you are not a murderer, you will be able to clear your suspicion and leave soon." In order to apologize, all the consumption tonight is free, and in addition, each person will be compensated with five taels of silver, which will surprise everyone. ”

As soon as these words came out, Ye Caitang knew who this person was, this was the owner of the painting boat.

No problem.

The painting boat is so lively, it can be seen that the business is not small, such a big business, if there is a murder, someone must come out to take care of things.

The panicked crowd slowly quieted down, and the people on the platform stopped rushing out, and those who didn't rush out also sat down on the spot under the comfort of the little guy.

The rich and powerful don't care about the five taels of silver, but they all know the owner of the painting boat, so there is no need to make trouble at this time.

If you have no money and no power, one person can get five taels of silver, and you won't panic if money falls from the sky.

There are hundreds of people on the painting boat, and they can't all be arrested as murderers.

On the contrary, if you have to leave at this time, aren't you telling others that I am the murderer?

At first, everyone ran very fiercely, although they didn't all run on the platform, but on the deck on the second floor, there were only Xia Yue and Ye Caitang, Ye Caitang stretched out his head to look for it in the platform, and finally found the person who spoke.

"This person is the owner of the painting boat, quite young."

A young man, looking about the same age as Xia Yue, stood on the deck with a few subordinates.

"Yes, his name is Ou Xiuran." Xia Yue said: "If you compare it to the capital, you can think that he is Huangquan in Jiangzhou, but the business is bigger than Huangquan, and half of the Qinglou casinos in Jiangzhou are his." ”

"Oh." Ye Caitang understood: "The head snake of the ground." ”

Suddenly, Ou Xiuran, who was standing on the platform, suddenly raised his head and glanced at Ye Caitang.

Ye Caitang was stunned and looked at him.

Isn't it, this Ou Xiuran's hearing is so good? So far away, so many people, and his voice is not loud, did he hear what he just said?

Xia Yue smiled slightly: "It's almost, but we call him Shunfeng Ear, because his ears are very good, and the good ones are not normal." ”

Ou Xiuran's expression froze, and his gaze turned to Xia Yue, very dissatisfied.

As soon as Ye Caitang looked at his expression, he knew that the two knew each other, and they were quite familiar.

But also, Xia Yue grew up here, and there are people with heads and faces in Jiangzhou, who doesn't know them.

The next moment, Ou Xiuran walked through the crowd.

"Let's go." Xia Yue said: "Go and take a look." ”

Then Xia Yue took Ye Caitang down, and on the deck of the first floor, he met Ou Xiuran who was walking towards him.

The two stood facing each other.

Ou Xiuran looked at Ye Caitang, Ye Caitang was not embarrassed, although he said bad things about others just now, but what he said was also the truth, you say, the operator of half of the Qinglou Casino, that is not a snake, what is it?

It's not a slander against him, if you want a good reputation, then don't make this kind of money.

Ou Xiuran looked at Ye Caitang and suddenly smiled.

"Xiao Yue."

“……”

Ye Caitang was scorched by this thunder on the outside and tender on the inside.

Xia Yue kicked Ou Xiuran without hesitation.

It can be seen from this kick that the two have feelings, but not much.

Ou Xiuran changed his words: "Lao Xia, this is the sweetheart you brought back from the capital?" Why come to the painting boat and don't look for me? ”

Xia Yue said: "Isn't it that I haven't caught up yet, and when I check out in a while, I will be able to remember to look for you." ”

Ye Caitang felt a little more comfortable inexplicably.

Xia Yue's poisonous mouth doesn't seem to be aimed at her, the more familiar she is, the more poisonous she becomes.

Ou Xiuran rolled his eyes widely, but with Ye Caitang here, it was not easy to rush up and fight with him. So he smiled and said, "Let Miss see the joke." Under the surname Ou, Ou Xiuran, may I ask what Miss is called. ”

After some greetings, Xia Yue introduced each other.

Ou Xiuran's face was straight, and he glanced at the place where the body was found just now.

"There's something strange about the situation over there." Ou Xiuran said: "Lao Xia, I'll send someone to send Miss Ye back first, and you can come with me to take a look." ”

Odd?

Xia Yue's face was also a little strange, Ou Xiuran mixed up in the casino Qinglou, what kind of scene had he never seen, he said it was strange, it must be strange.

However, Xia Yue said: "She doesn't have to avoid it, let's take a look together." ”
