Chapter 342: Rumors

But said that Hong Tuo encountered an embarrassing thing here, he came to the street outside the beggar alley according to Di Gua, there were only a few beggars scattered on the street, he found an older one, just asked two sentences, those beggars began to panic, and hurriedly found an excuse to leave, in desperation he could only change to a beggar and continue to ask, who knew that the man listened to what he wanted to ask, and didn't even look for an excuse, picked up his stick and broken bowl, got up and left.

Hong Kuo was very puzzled, looked at the sun, found a restaurant nearby that was still open for business, went in and ordered a few small dishes and sat by the window, observing the beggars over there.

Now Xiao Er, who came to deliver the food, looked at him and looked wrong, Hong Tuo simply called Xiao Er and quietly stuffed him with some fine silver, wanting to ask the reason, but who knew that Xiao Er shirked and didn't accept it, and looked at him more and more like a bad person.

Hong Tuo had to lie, saying that he was actually a plainclothes arrester from the yamen, and he came here to suspect that the identity of those corpses was beggars, so he went to the beggar pile to inquire about any missing beggars recently.

Xiao Er will be suspicious, looking at his eyes are still not good, after all, he has seen a lot of people who have passed by the nearby catch fast in the past two days, and there is no Hong Tease in it, just from his dressing and appearance, he is clearly a noble son, where is the person who catches fast?

Hong Tuo had to tell the truth, saying that he was a person from the City Lord's Mansion, and it was also arranged by the City Lord to inquire here, if Xiao Er was still so delayed in solving the case, he would report to the City Lord and punish him for the crime of obstructing the case, if he didn't believe it, just wait.

When Xiao Er heard this, he panicked and hurriedly said everything.

I don't know where the rumor came out, saying that the killer who kills people and takes their hearts is looking for beggars or poor people who have no relatives, first tempting them with money, and then turning them to remote places, killing people to get their hearts, and those beggars have heard this, and the timid ones have not dared to come out to ask for food lately, and they have avoided everyone when they see them.

After learning the reason, Hong Tuo still gave Xiao Er some silver, let him go, while eating absent-mindedly eating, while looking at the movement on the beggar street, suddenly saw a carriage driving into the street, a few beggars sitting lazily on the side of the street seemed to know the carriage, and immediately hugged it.

Then the driver of the car probed into the carriage, took out a large food box from it, opened it, and revealed the large white-flour steamed buns inside, which were distributed to the beggars one by one.

Hong Tuo looked strange, and hurriedly called Xiao Er to settle the bill and walked out of the restaurant to the carriage, seeing that the coachman who was driving the carriage was a little familiar, and seeing that the hot mark on the carriage was undoubtedly the family emblem of the City Lord's Mansion, then the people in the car must also be people in the City Lord's Mansion.

Xu was fascinated by it, and he didn't notice for a while that the coachman over there finished the steamed buns and put away his things, and was about to drive back, and when he saw him standing in the middle of the road, he opened his mouth to ask him to give way.

The coachman looked like an old man from the City Lord's Mansion, and his tone was not very polite, with a high sense of command, which made Hong Tuo very uncomfortable, but he was just a coachman.

Hong Tu stood in place and never moved, such an action made the coachman a little angry, if he hadn't taken care of the people in the carriage, he would probably have been whipped.

"What's the matter?"

A delicate-looking woman leaned out of the carriage, looking at the dress, it should be a maid, her eyes were staring at Hong Tease, but her mouth was asking the coachman.

The coachman's tone was a lot softer, and he only said that Hong Tuo would not give way, and the maid was a well-educated person, so she walked out of the carriage and blessed Hong Tea.

"My young lady is in a hurry to go home, please ask my son to get out of the way. ”

Miss, not just Miss Four but Miss Five.

Hong Tuo asked directly, "I don't know which lady is from the City Lord's Mansion?"

The maid was stunned, her face was a little unkind, and she probably regarded Hong Tuo as a disciple.

"This has nothing to do with Childe, please get out of the way!"

This tone was much worse than before, Hong Tuo didn't care, and even opened his mouth to continue asking questions.

"I don't know when did Miss start about charity?"

The maid's face sank, and she was about to start reprimanding, but she heard the people inside shouting, and the maid hurriedly changed her face, turned around and lifted the curtain of the car, revealing a bright and moving face.

Kang Nian blinked, looked at Hong Tuo below, and said with a smile: "I said, why is the voice so familiar, it's really you!

It turned out to be Kang Nian, Hong Tuo subconsciously let go of his body, if it was this girl, he didn't have any doubts, after all, most of the people who have enough aura and can see spiritual objects are mostly good people, and this girl really doesn't look like a bad person.

"It's nothing, it's a mistake, and please don't care about it, I've got out of the way, and I ask the girl to go home early." ”

With such a big monster as Lu Bai watching, Hong Tuo was not worried about Kang Nian's An.

Who knew that Kang Nian was still unhappy, so he jumped out of the carriage despite the maid's obstruction, ran to Hong Tuo's side, and looked at him with curiosity.

"My gut tells me that you know something that everyone doesn't know!"

Hong teased the distance between the two and politely refused: "No, I'm just curious, it's better for Miss Fifth to go home earlier." ”

Kang Nian stared at Hong Tuo with sparkling eyes: "I don't, you are in such a hurry to drive me away, you must be trying to investigate something secretly, I haven't seen you since that day, I inquired about where you live, and I haven't found an excuse to look for you!"

Hong teased and said: "Men and women don't kiss, the fifth lady is already old, so she should avoid these." ”

Kang Nian pouted: "We don't have as many rules in Kyoto in the west, as long as it's not too ambiguous, it's nothing to walk together ordinarily, and I didn't say anything if I was a woman, what are you afraid of as a big man?"

Kang Nian raised his eyes to look at him, his eyes were clear, and she should have innocence and beauty at her age, Hong Nian sighed slightly in his heart, and before he could speak, Kang Nian chattered again.

"You can leave the soul, you are definitely not a simple person, do you know spells, is this murderer a demon ......"

Before Kang Nian finished speaking, she couldn't make a sound, she looked at Hong Tuo in surprise, and her eyes were wide and there was no anger, but she saw through all the excitement.

"Let's find a teahouse and talk slowly?"

Kang Nian nodded hurriedly, Hong Tuo immediately accepted her forbidden spell, Kang Nian had to say more, saw the nearby pedestrians, swallowed the words in his throat, and spit out something else.

"Are you and that Wu Gongzi really brothers? How do I feel that the two of you are not very similar, and you don't look like ......?"

"I saw your brother and his fiancée at the ceremony that day, your brother's fiancée is very beautiful, her eyes are clear, and she feels that she is a person who can see through, but how do I think she and your brother are inseparable, but occasionally care about your actions, is this ...... The eldest sister-in-law is like a mother!"

Hong Tuo only felt a choke in his heart, and it took a long time to recover and speak coldly.

"Can you shut up?
