Sick beauty loses horse in thriller game
Chapter 17 Orange Blossom Town 17
About half an hour later, in a forest to the west of the villa.
Jiang Lai's unfocused eyes "looked" into the depths of the deep bitter orange forest.
The heavy rain in the past few days left the forest floor still a little muddy, and there were still traces of Li Li being dragged here.
But... that trace really disappeared after arriving here, just like Li Li and the monster who brought her here suddenly ascended to heaven and escaped.
This place is surrounded by sparse bitter orange trees, and there are no castles in the air.
The ground was muddy and covered with a thick layer of bitter orange leaves. According to Yuanyuan's description, there were no traces of being stepped on or turned over on the leaves. So it is unlikely that there are underground structures.
Jiang Lai was silent for a long time and suddenly said, "Mr. Lu Xun said that from a scientific point of view, this is completely unscientific."
She didn't believe that those three-star monsters could take Li Li to heaven and earth, otherwise they wouldn't have been killed by her so easily.
Yuanyuan looked confused.
Mr. Lu Xun said this?
"Since it's not scientific, it must be due to human factors." Jiang Lai said very firmly.
She walked to the place where the traces disappeared and used the blind stick in her hand to brush away part of the fallen leaves.
"Yuanyuan, look carefully at your feet. Tell me, what do you see now?"
"It's ruts! I saw the ruts left by the carriage passing by!" Yuanyuan said excitedly.
She looked at Jiang Lai with shocked eyes.
How did Miss Lai know that there were clues hidden under these chaotic and thick layers of fallen leaves?
Simply amazing!
Jiang Lai's reasoning process for finding clues is not complicated.
She just recalled that the maid in the town hall said that bitter orange trees are an important source of income for Orange Blossom Town.
Petitgrain leaves, orange blossoms and fruits can all be collected and processed into perfumes and essential oils.
This being the case, it is unlikely that such a thick layer of leaf litter would occur in a managed bitter orange plantation.
Moreover, players did not find such a large accumulation of fallen leaves in other areas of the plantation.
She turned over the fallen leaves with her blind stick and found the clue.
After some exploration, the two discovered that the traces left by the carriage were heading to the west.
The west is not only the direction where those monsters and Li Fei escaped, but also the direction where Orange Blossom Town is located.
"Let's go back to the town." Jiang Lai said.
They rode back to the road.
Because Yuanyuan couldn't ride a horse, Jiang Lai's eyesight was inconvenient, and they needed to find the right road. It took the two of them twice as long as it took them to take the carriage to the villa, and finally returned to Orange Blossom Town.
The townspeople who saw them had expressions of disbelief and horror on their faces, and they were afraid to avoid the two people who were speeding towards them.
It was as if those galloping on horseback were not two young girls, but ferocious beasts.
The two of them didn't waste any more time on the road.
Just when passing by a stall selling beef, Jiang Lai sniffed, gently bent down, and under the guidance of Xiao Ai, he smoothly took away a shiny sharp bone-picking knife.
She held the knife in her left hand and controlled the horse with her right hand, heading straight to the town government. .
Yuanyuan:......
Sister, didn't you say...that you were going to find the mayor for clues? Why does it feel like you are seeking revenge?
Jiang Lai walked in front, taking Yuanyuan with him, and headed straight to the mayor's office.
Probably because she flipped the gleaming boning knife up and down, so that no one around her dared to stop her.
"The Mayor's face is bright red. You must have had a good rest last night, right? How did you get a good night's sleep? In your position and at this stage, can you sleep well? You're not promising at all!"
"So many guests came to the villa last night. As the mayor of the town, you actually ran away secretly and let us guests from afar entertain those guests who came at night for you!"
Mayor:...
Oh my God! What a sin!
Why did I meet such a madman who regarded a monster as a guest!
"Is this how the mayor entertains the inspection team from afar? I must report your bad behavior to the kingdom, the church, and the cabinet! Do you think what you have done is worthy of being the mayor of a town? Location?!"
Jiang Lai's fierce questioning made the mayor completely stunned!
How could she, a thin little blind girl, still be alive?
Not only did she walk out of the villa alive, she also ran back to question herself!
Jiang Lai had no intention of stopping.
"Didn't you say that you would personally take us to inspect various places in the town? Why don't we set off now. Let's go to inspect Miss Emma's perfume processing studio first."
Hearing Jiang Lai mention Miss Emma, the mayor's blank expression instantly became tense.
The mayor was trembling all over, his face turned pale, and big beads of sweat rolled down his forehead.
He frantically pressed the bell on the table and shouted loudly, "Someone is coming! Someone is coming quickly! Arrest them both!"
"Hey, who are you going to call to arrest whom?"
Jiang Lai's movements were obviously faster than those outside, and the boning knife in his hand accurately touched the carotid artery of the mayor's neck.
"What do you want to do? I'm warning you, if you dare to do anything to me, I won't let you go!" The mayor said with a nervous look on his face, forcing himself to be calm.
Jiang Lai smiled and said, "It's as if I plan to let you go."
Maybe it was the cold blade attached to the skin of his neck that frightened the mayor, maybe he found Jiang Lai's cold smile creepy, or maybe both.
A thin stream of cold sweat broke out on the mayor's back.
He rolled his eyes and said hurriedly: "What are you doing with Miss Emma? She is just an ordinary perfumer. Moreover, she has now left the town to attend the perfume tasting conference in the city..."
Jiang Lai clicked his tongue.
It has to be said that the mayor's performance subverted Jiang Lai's impression of him.
She originally thought that the mayor was honest and didn't talk much.
Unexpectedly, the real situation is that the mayor is old and does not tell many truths.
"Ah, really?"
The deboning knife in Jiang Lai's hand carefully cut the mayor's neck with a small cut that was enough to cause him pain but not bleed too much and endanger his life.
"Did you know? Because you didn't entertain yourself last night, the monster guests who came to the villa were very dissatisfied. They asked me by name to send you to the villa to spend a good time with them. night. If you are not willing to take us to find Miss Emma, then I will have to fulfill the wishes of those monsters."
