Absurd deduction game

Although it has just passed mid-November, it seems that winter has already entered Nancheng. The temperature of seven to eight degrees makes pedestrians on the road wrap themselves in thick layers of clothes and walk in a hurry.

Of course, this is only limited to the subway station. Looking at the commercial street next door, there are many couples or companions who are willing to go shopping in the cold air.

Yu Xing got off the high-speed train and bought a bunch of candied haws to eat. He strolled leisurely to the side of the road and successfully recognized the car sent by Zhao Mou to pick him up.

Since Zhao Mou is one of the leaders of the branch in the south, he must be present at the gathering of the three major families and cannot leave. As for Zhao Yijiu... Zhao Yijiu could go anywhere, but he obviously didn't believe Yu Xing's lies. He replied "Stop pretending" and left Yu Xing to fend for himself.

So, the person who came to pick up Yu Xing was an ordinary person under Zhao Mou who was responsible for party logistics. He was a very common member of the family. He was probably aware of the existence of deductions, but did not personally participate.

Yu Xing had already received the license plate number from Zhao Mou. He was biting a candied haws of sugarcane, curled his fingers and hit the car glass. The car window lowered, revealing an energetic face.

This is a middle-aged man with very fair skin, wearing a suit and leather shoes. His hair is meticulously combed back and styled.

Compared to him, Yu Xing was dressed too casually. He wore jeans and a down jacket, and opened his collar to reveal the half-turtle collar white sweater underneath. The tips of his ears and nose were a little red from the cold wind, and his hair was messed up. , and still have time to eat hawthorn.

Seeing Yu Xing, the middle-aged man's eyes twitched. It really didn't look like he was going to a banquet. He coughed lightly: "Mr. Yu?"

"Um."

With a click, the locked car door opened, and the middle-aged man said: "Please get in the car. My name is Zhao Zhi. I will be your driver for the time being. I will be responsible for the housekeeping of the floor where you live."

After getting into the car, the heating in the car instantly enveloped Yu Xing. He sat in the passenger seat honestly this time, so Zhao Zhi looked at the bunch of half-left candied haws at a close distance and found it even more interesting.

Zhao Mouzuan was his boss, and he specifically asked him to pick up a person with a foreign surname. He didn't reveal any information except his name, and he seemed to respect the other person's privacy. There must be some reason.

Now it seems that it is not easy for Mr. Yu to attend such a banquet for the first time and still be so casual without any feeling of anxiety.

"let's go."

As soon as he started driving, Zhao Zhi never showed his appraising eyes again, and his professionalism was very high.

The car drove in the busy city for a while. Yu Xing finished eating the candied haws and put it in the car's garbage disposal bin. Suddenly he remembered that he hadn't asked about the specific location: "By the way, where will the banquet be held?"

"..." Zhao Zhi paused and then said, "Fenggu Lanting."

Yu Xing took out his mobile phone smoothly and started searching for information about Feng Gulan Ting.

Zhao Zhi: This person didn’t make any preparations before coming...

With a slightly uneasy mood, he sent the guest who was unclear about the details to the place.

Along the way, the noise on the streets gradually faded away, the atmosphere became quieter and quieter, and more trees were visible to the naked eye. When we arrived at our destination, we could only see lush woods and green avenues.

Yu Xing sat in the car and looked up, and a large garden with ancient charm appeared in front of him. Huge buildings were scattered in the shadow of the trees, one on the east and one on the west, connected by gravel roads or corridors in the middle, which was quite artistic.

Such a large area, placed in any city where land is at a premium, seems to clearly say "My price is something you will never dare to think about in your life."

He turned his phone around, stuffed it back into his pocket, and got a general understanding of this "manor" through Baidu.

Fenggu Lanting, the most famous garden-style building in Nancheng, has multiple functions such as a winery, resort hotel, and exhibition hall. It is said that it has been around as long as Nancheng itself. Although it is renovated from time to time, it can still be seen It has a strong historical atmosphere.

The scenery is beautiful, and the landscape layout of each plot is designed by a famous designer. Each step is a scene, leisurely and leisurely, and the green area is particularly large.

This manor only accepts VIP members, and the daily consumption levels of the guests have reached a level that cannot be disclosed to the outside world, for fear that it will scare the people. Therefore, it can maintain a quiet environment all year round, and there are never too many people.

I'm afraid that the busiest time of year at Fenggu Lanting is when it is contracted to hold parties for the three major families. From November 18th to 21st, other guests will leave voluntarily to become the home venue of the three major families. ——This is something that every member knows. No member has ever been dissatisfied because of this, because the attitude of the person in charge of Lanting made the members realize that the person who contracted the contract for these days is probably far above them. Who would ask for trouble.

These days, the three major families and their affiliated family members with foreign surnames can enter regardless of whether they are members or not.

Regarding this point, Yu Xing instinctively ignored his houses and sighed that the three major families were really wealthy. It would be unjustifiable if they didn't have any shares in Fenggu Lanting. Maybe the boss of Lanting himself was a member of a certain family.

Zhao Zhi's car had not yet entered the interior of Lanting. After driving through the boulevard, there was a parking lane next to the main entrance of Lanting, which was filled with various vehicles.

No one’s car is allowed to drive in and must be placed in the parking lane, without exception.

When Yu Xing looked over, he suddenly felt that there were quite a lot of interesting people from the three major families, because among the luxury cars, he also saw a few motorcycles, a skateboard, and even a yellow shared bicycle that stood out from the crowd.

Zhao Zhi followed Yu Xing's gaze and looked over, his face trembling: "That little yellow car... seems to have been ridden by the Luo family."

The Zhao family is good at information, the Xu family is gloomy, and the Luo family is hard to describe. The distribution of personnel is the most mixed, and there are many strange, chaotic and funny talents among them.

For example, on this occasion, Zhao Mou must be wearing a suit, wearing his elegant scum glasses, well-dressed, and full of etiquette.

But as for the Luo family, they might be able to wear Taoist robes, leather jackets, hip-hop pants, one-piece plush pajamas and other monsters and ghosts.

This is also the reason why Zhao Zhi did not take Yu Xing to change into formal clothes before coming back. A down jacket is already a very normal attire among such a group of people. This is not a business cocktail party, so there is a very helpless feeling in terms of dressing. free.

"Well, it's quite interesting." Yu Xing praised.

Zhao Zhi silently took back what he wanted to say to slander the Luo family and praise the Zhao family. He drove the car into the parking lane and said instead: "The party members will arrive most of the morning. When I take you in later, you should be able to meet a lot of them." Those who are walking outside, well, Mr. Zhao Mou said that if anyone asks you, just say that you are from his branch to save trouble."

"The little fox is still afraid that I will be abducted by others~" Yu Xing chuckled twice, which made Zhao Zhi tremble and almost stop.

Little Fox! ?

Is this something ordinary people dare to call? This person is a boss, he must be a boss!

Middle-aged Zhao Zhizhi doesn't feel ashamed at all to be intimidated by people many years younger than him. He has seen many "young talents" in the family for so many years, and he knows very well how many young people participate in that world. horrible.

After parking the car, Zhao Zhi and Yu Xing came to the gate.

Yu Xing admired the precious tree species on both sides for a while, then pulled up his collar and looked into the garden with interest.

I had long heard that the Xu family was good at robbing tombs and driving corpses, and they had strong Yin energy. Now it turns out that their reputation is well-deserved.

Naturally, ordinary people like Zhao Zhi couldn't see anything, but in Yu Xing's eyes, these garden buildings were already shrouded in a strange gloominess from a distance.

This kind of spookiness is not entirely caused by ghosts or curses. It is mixed with living popularity, which is obviously caused by people.

"Let's go in now and go to our residence to rest first. In the evening, you and Mr. Zhao Yijiu will act together. Oh, this is what Mr. Zhao Mou ordered." Xiao Zhi, the conscientious guide, said as he walked, and then pointed ahead. , "This is the gate."

In the past few days, all the service staff have been replaced by family support staff. Zhao Zhi, the gatekeeper, also knows him. He is a little stickman from the Luo family who can read palms. He usually looks lazy, but today he was He was forced to wear a welcome suit, and his face was full of displeasure, as if his job was not to welcome guests, but to visit the grave.

The young man visiting the grave sat on a small sofa that was moved from nowhere outside the guard room. He looked at the two people walking towards him and reluctantly stood up. He bowed perfunctorily and stretched out his hand: "Invitation or proof of identity."

Zhao Zhi has a "work permit" hanging around his neck. The young man is not blind, and the person he reaches out to is mainly Yu Xing.

The guide Xiao Zhi felt a sense of schadenfreude when he saw him being pushed to the shelf like this. He happily turned his head to look at Yu Xing: "Mr. Yu, just show him the invitation."

Yu Xing: "Oh."

Two seconds later, he smiled and took his hands out of his pockets, spread them out and asked, "Do you think I have that thing?"

Zhao Zhi: "..."

Zhao Zhi: "?"

The young man finally looked at Yu Xing and became interested: "Good guy, are you here to cause trouble!?"

There was no rebuke in this question, it was mostly excitement, and the rest was all expectation.

"Don't talk nonsense, this is the person invited by Mr. Zhao Mou." Zhao Zhi glared at the young man angrily, and then asked a little embarrassed, "Mr. Yu, Mr. Zhao Mou didn't give you the invitation?"

"What do you think? When you picked me up, I had just gotten off the high-speed train." Yu Xing smiled and said, "Didn't you bring it to me?"

Zhao Zhi immediately straightened his back and assured with a serious face: "Absolutely not!" He had no ability to take the blame!

"Oh, then I understand." Yu Xing said and sat down on the armrest of the young man's small sofa as if he were boneless. Even though his physical strength recovered, his habit of paralyzing wherever he went didn't change.

Zhao Zhi: Do you understand the introduction?

Before the Tianjin question in his mind could be expressed, Yu Xing took the initiative to add: "Just wait."

Zhao Zhi: "Wait, who are you waiting for?"

The next moment, a voice as cold as ice broke in: "Me."

This voice was very familiar to Zhao Zhi. After all, he was from this branch. He recognized it as soon as he heard it and looked at the person who appeared at the gate with a little surprise.

It's actually Zhao Yijiao? Zhao Yijiu came out to pick him up in person? Zhao Zhi calmed down his expression and was shocked in his heart.

Yu Xing also looked towards the door.

Zhao Yijiu wore the same gloomy face as when they first met, his hair was slightly longer than it was then, an unexpected black suit, and a pair of glasses on the bridge of his nose, which made the sharp attack Sex neutralizes it a lot.

"Tsk, are these the clothes Zhao Mou changed while holding his head..." Yu Xing muttered in his heart, feeling so funny.

Because Zhao Yijiu's expression was almost the same as that of the young man from the Luo family who looked after the door. They both looked like "Why the hell am I dressed like this?"

Zhao Yijiu glanced at Yu Xing and the young man from the Luo family at the doorman's office, and handed the invitation to the latter: "Zhao... my brother said that he was too busy and forgot to ask the picker to bring the invitation. This is his Yes, let him go if there is no problem."

The young man from the Luo family knew who he was and who his brother was. He took the invitation and glanced at it before waving it away and sighing regretfully: "There is no fun to see."

Zhao Yijiu lowered his gaze slightly and said to Yu Xing, whose eyes were full of teasing smiles: "Come in."

Yu Xing stood up from the armrest of the sofa and walked in calmly.

Zhao Zhimu followed with a stern face, not knowing whether he still wanted to go with these two people.

He knew Zhao Mou very well. This kind of person has a well-rounded personality and he values ​​Mr. Yu very much. How could he forget to give him an invitation? ? Is it because he deliberately refused to give it to him just to trick Zhao Yijiu into coming out to greet them? Judging from Mr. Yu’s reaction, I’m afraid he has already thought of this!

Sure enough, Yu Xing said with ridicule in his tone to Zhao Yijiu: "Your brother really knows how to take advantage of favors~"

Hey, did it overturn? Zhao Zhi followed silently, a little uneasy.

However, the next second, he heard Zhao Yijiu, who he imagined should defend Zhao Mou, said: "He has always been like this."

Then he added: "Old fox."

Zhao Zhi: "..." As a subordinate, I am not suitable to listen here.

After walking a few steps, Zhao Yijiu finally remembered him and turned around with an expressionless expression: "You can go, Zhao Mou is calling you."

He calls "my brother" to outsiders, and to family members, he calls him by his first name.

"Okay." Zhao Zhi got what he wanted and disappeared in a flash.

With no one around, Zhao Yijiu turned around and looked at Yu Xing again.

Yu Xing: "What?"

"You're pretending to be a little bit cool."

"Huh?" Yu Xing was a little confused.

"It's my first time to participate. I'm nervous and need to stay with me." Zhao Yijiu listed a few key words. "If you do it all, Zhao Mou will not do anything wrong again."

"Afraid that I will be too high-profile and attract other people's attention?" Yu Xing shook his head and understood Zhao Mou's good intentions, "Don't worry, when there are people around, I will definitely do it. I can perform."

Hearing the last sentence, Zhao Yijiu was a little silent.

Yes, you can perform, and you can learn from it personally.

While talking for a while, he had already led Yu Xing through a small gravel road. Behind the shadows of trees, there was a four-story vermilion building. He pointed in this direction with his chin: "Zhao's house is in the south. Branch lives here, you, me, Zhao Mou, and two women live on the fourth floor."
