Mercenaries and Adventurers
Vol 4 Chapter 51: , the caravan murder case (4)
He felt that the tavern owner was not telling the truth.
There must be something hiding from him, but Keel can't correct it.
"Go and call the waiter who is in charge of the guest room first. Forget it, I'll look for it, and you don't go anywhere here." Keel gave Zambirus a look, and the other party understood, and walked over to stop the aisle The way to the cloister.
"Why don't you let me go? I didn't hurt people, so I don't care about my affairs! Master Pawei, you see?" The tavern owner immediately turned to the confidant of the town lord for help.
But Pawei didn't want to get involved in these matters. Besides, the tavern owner was not his, so he didn't need to protect him. So Pawei just smiled easily: "Don't be nervous, as long as you don't care about your affairs, they won't do anything. Don't worry, I'm here."
Keel walked along the corridor on the second floor to the stairs, and walked down to the third floor of the tavern.
Compared with the spacious and atmospheric appearance on the first floor of the tavern, and the neatly separated guest rooms on the second floor, the third floor where the shop assistants live is a bit messy.
In the middle of the third floor is a spacious dining table, on which some unfinished wooden bowls and wooden dinner plates are placed in a mess, and a lot of flowers are planted on the balcony with windows on one side, all planted on a long wooden In the box, the bees are buzzing and flying around among the blooming flowers, busy.
On the side near the stairs is a small room separated by wooden boards. The door is locked, and I don't know what it is used for. On the other side of the dining table are beds separated by curtains, on which several young men are lying and sleeping soundly.
At the end of the room on the third floor is another separated room, with Scar Parry's name marked on the conspicuous door, it is estimated that it is the tavern owner's room.
Keir didn't care about that, and walked up to the sleeping shop assistants, shaking them awake one by one and asking.
It didn't take long to find the chap who was in charge of housekeeping last night.
"Come down with me, I have something to ask you." Keir dragged the man down and walked down. The barefooted young man was sleepy, obviously not yet aware of what was going on.
"Who are you? What do you want me to do next? I'm only in charge of the work at night, don't ask me for work."
"Yes, good thing, good thing."
Kiel coped with it, and walked down the stairs dragging people.
After going downstairs, the young man came back to his senses when he saw the aisle full of people: "What happened? Uncle, what happened? Why are there so many people here?"
Scar Parry curled his lips: "You can fall asleep after such a big incident in the morning? You are like a pig! Stupid! What happened to the guests in this room last night?"
He pointed to the open guest room door, and the young man named Gerrick was shocked when he saw the blood all over the floor: "What's going on? Did you fight?"
The young town guard laughed and said: "Killed. Last night's guest was killed here. You were the last person to see him last night. Did you kill him? After all, you don't have much money. Coincidentally, all the valuables of the slain businessman are gone.”
The young man was terrified: "How is it possible! You fart, how could I kill someone! Uncle, they wronged me! You know, I usually go back upstairs to sleep after nothing happens in the early morning, and I don't even know about these things .”
Then he said something: "Besides, the girl under Zhifentou was also in the room at the time, and when I poured hot water into the tub, those two were lying on the bed, and there were other people in the room! "
Kiel exchanged glances with the two guards: "Fantasy? Who is he?"
The young man glanced nervously at his uncle, the tavern owner, Scar Parry. Scar Parry looked disgusted, but he didn't say anything.
Keir's face turned cold, and he raised his jaw to the other two guards, signaling them to take the tavern guy to the next empty room for questioning.
When the strong guard pulled the young man to the side, Scar Parry stood up: "Let go! He is my buddy and my relative. What do you want to do?"
Keir stood in front of Parry and stopped him from moving: "It's nothing to do, just ask questions. Also, do you know who the fat fan is talking about? Can you explain to me how this guy got his girl in the tavern Did you have a relationship with the murdered businessman Shillong?"
"I said it's none of my business. Anyone who opens the door for business can come to my tavern. I don't care what they do!"
"Then you know?" Kiel clenched tightly.
"It's none of your business whether you know it or not! Let go!" Scar Parry waved his hand, but he couldn't get rid of Keel's hand holding his arm.
Keel knew that the hard-talking guy wouldn't spit out anything unless he gave the old guy some good looks. But beating a dog also depends on the owner on the ground, so Keel turned his head and looked at Mr. Pawei next to him: "Is it okay if I ask him a few words?"
Mr. Pawei just leaned against the wooden wall and smiled slightly, with a very ambiguous attitude: "If you just ask a few words, I will still give this face."
"Master Pawei! Don't you like to drink my house's spirits? I still have a lot here, and I'll send them to you!" Scar Parry still wanted to build a relationship at this time.
"Oh, don't you even use your honorific title? So that's my status with you?"
"No, no, you." He wanted to say something more, but Keel pushed him behind and pushed Scar Parry into the dead man's guest room.
boom!
The wooden door was closed by Kiel with a left and right hook.
Outside the door, Mr. Pawei said to the baron's guard who had been standing still and interrupted without saying a word: "I'm giving you face, I hope you can stop causing trouble and solve this matter as soon as possible. I still have activities at home tonight Woolen cloth."
Rubis said politely: "If possible, we also hope to deal with it as soon as possible. Thank you for your help."
"Hey, I didn't do anything after all, so I can't talk about helping." Pawei waved his hand: "Scarred Parry heard that when he was young, he was a famous equestrian in the neighborhood. He only opened the tavern with the money he saved from doing bad things. Although the drinks are strong and popular, there are always some dirty people haunting his place."
He snorted: "Hmph, things will happen anyway. No, or rather, things have always happened, it's just that those people don't have enough confidence to investigate."
The businessman next to him, Mr. Orobi, was so frightened that he kept wiping the cold sweat off his head with a handkerchief. He didn't expect that the tavern where he drank with his companions last night was so dangerous.
He regretted a little, whether it was a bit too careless to follow Baron Kendall's army these days, and he didn't have the usual vigilance.
"Mr. Pawei, why don't you deal with this place and let them mess around?" The businessman complained to Pawei in a low voice.
Unexpectedly, Mr. Pawei shrugged indifferently: "I'm not in charge of this place. Besides, the money for street security cannot be handed over to me."
He added: "Whoever collects the money but doesn't do anything, that's whose fault it is, hehe."
Next to him, the clerk was hesitant to listen to the two guards' questioning of the tavern clerk, or to listen to the confrontation between Kiel and the tavern owner.
In the end, he didn't dare to go directly into the next guest room, so he could only lie down by the wooden door, put his ear on the wooden door, and listen to what Keir was doing.
-
Gere is beating Scar Parry.
Although Scar Parry was also a good horseman galloping on the grassland when he was young, but after all, he is old, and he hasn't touched anyone in the tavern for a long time after he got rid of the horse bandits all these years.
Even though he himself was rather stout, Keir was wearing a full set of full-face armor made of hard cowhide at this time. Even without a helmet, it was not something Scar Parry could handle with his bare hands.
Scar Parry knew that he had a self-defense dagger on his waist, but the opposite young man who didn't speak martial arts had a luminous long sword that was easy to see after he came to an environment without natural light.
He swallowed, and had to fight Keel with his fists in an unfair fist fight.
Keel stood still, letting the opponent punch him in the chest without shaking his body.
On the contrary, it was Scar Parry's fist that was scratched in the collision, and blood flowed out.
"Damn it! You little rascal!" Scar Parry yelled, but Keel just fought back with his fist. Scar Parry, who had already passed middle age, shrank to the ground after being punched by Keel several times in a row .
Kiel sneered: "I thought you were a serious tavern here. Fortunately, I am looking forward to some famous spirits in your tavern."
"If it's a man, drag the armor with me to the street for a one-on-one fight!"
Seeing that Scar Parry was still talking hard, Keir said mercilessly: "Don't say such unrealistic things, you are already old, and you are no match for me at all. Also, don't talk about how you were when you were young, Can't beat me either."
After finishing speaking, Keir stretched out his hand and pulled Scar Parry up from the ground: "The scars all over the body look bluffing, did you cut it yourself?"
"Little bastard! How dare you insult me!" He swung his fist.
But Keir just reached out to hold the opponent's heavy punch: "That's it? Forget it. We people are not here to make trouble. On the contrary, we came to fix the trouble because of the trouble."
"Yeah, the problem is the trouble and I didn't cause it."
"Not yours?"
"Damn it! I used to be famous in this part of the world, but that's all in the past. Look, I'm old, I can't kill people, I can't ride a horse. After I give the lord a sum of money to let him not pursue After what I did before, I have been running this tavern with my heart!"
"Operate with care? Did you make a mistake?"
Keir narrowed his eyes, a little annoyed.
"A foreign businessman came to drink with you. He came to have a look in the morning. Well, he died. You told me that you managed it with your heart? Huh?"
Scar Parry coughed twice, feeling a little embarrassed.
"Well, some friends are actually 'running' this tavern with me. I opened the tavern, and they followed to find some poor girls to make a living on the second floor of the tavern."
Keir didn't speak, and continued to listen to him.
"Listen, I know they're a little unclean, and like to take extra money out of the purse when my guests get drunk, but I didn't expect this to happen. @#@, even a few women I can't control it."
Kiel reminded: "Is it possible, as you said, that he was discovered stealing money from drunk guests? Then he scuffled and was finally killed?"
Scar Parry let out a heavy breath: "What else can it be? This kind of thing has happened everywhere. I'm really unlucky. How could I run into you guys." He muttered in a low voice: "It seems that in the future You can’t do this when there are big forces crossing the border, you have to take care of them.”
But Keel pursed his lips, he felt something was wrong.
He remembered the two fatal wounds he found on the victim when he checked the victim's body outside the town: he stabbed the chest, avoiding the obstruction of the sternum and ribs, and the weapon used at the same time was not a dagger type used by ordinary people.
This is out of line with today's situation.
Even though the second floor of the tavern has always been engaged in flesh and blood business, even if the girls who do the work secretly take more money while the guests are drunk, even if they are discovered because of this, they will scuffle.
But the problem is, a thin woman who is not superior in physical strength and body shape, even a strong woman will not do this kind of thing, how did she use a special dagger in the scuffle to get tall What about Merchant Shillong?
But there was no need for Keir to tell Scar Parry this question, he turned to ask about the news of the makeup boss who partnered with Parry.
"That guy was a smooth-talking guy, and he looked unreliable. But I worked with that guy once before, and I found that he was actually very reliable. So when I opened the tavern, the guy came to the door and said Want to partner with me, I run the tavern, he will help find some girls, and start another profitable project in the guest room on the second floor of the tavern."
"I didn't think much about it at the time, so I agreed. After that, the business has indeed been very good. Even though the hands and feet of his subordinates were not clean, I have settled them all." Speaking of this, Scar Parry spat.
"I didn't expect this to be the result. It seems that his control over his opponents is just like that. In the end, I was the one who was responsible for all the troubles. It's really a good calculation. Hey, I didn't give me any more copper coins."
Keir glared at the other party: "To be honest, where should I find this guy? What's his name? What's his nickname?"
"Seaweed Head, that's his nickname, name, who knows if it's true, but he asked everyone to call him Parian Vedel." Scar Parry sneered: "Videll is also available to him Surname. That's funny."
Seeing that Keir didn't understand, Scar Parry explained: "The ruler of our western province, Lord Earl, is surnamed Weddell. Hey, a guy like mud, everyone has been displeased with this guy for a long time. Places take advantage."
Gere doesn't care about these things: "Where do I find him?"
"Found it? Something happened, so I ran away early? Algae head, I think it's more appropriate to call it four legs."
"Four legs?" Kiel was a little puzzled.
Scar Parry smiled wretchedly: "Aren't men all three-legged? He runs fast, it must be because his parents gave him an extra leg. Haha."
"Hehe." Kier dryly smiled: "Don't care if he runs or not, you can provide him with a place to live."
"Okay, okay, you have asked three times."
"Then you answer me."
"In addition to cooperating with me, he also runs a red house. On the next street next door, there is a red house called Shoes Lost. It is small in scale and cannot compete with the other houses in the town. Can think of some crooked tricks in our taverns. Bah, I believe his evil."
After getting the information he wanted, Keir no longer cared about Scar Parry, opened the door and walked out.
On the other side, the other two guards asked questions faster than Kiel, and they were already waiting when Kiel came out.
"How about it?"
The Zamberus guard shook his head: "This guy only saw the businessman call a girl from the powder boss at the stairway, and the girls have been sleeping in the third-floor stairway room every night. The businessman was drunk first. I asked for a big house, and then I asked for hot water to take a shower."
"When the man boiled the water and carried it up, the businessman was on the bed with a girl in the room. He saw that kind of situation too much and didn't care. Nothing happened at the time, so he just went back and forth in the tub. After pouring hot water a few times, I took a few copper coins and left."
But then, Zambirus became serious: "But this young man is in charge of night work, so he didn't sleep until early in the morning. So he heard a woman's scream from the room where the businessman lived in the middle of the night. But He didn't care."
Keir looked at the young man who was a few years older than him. The guy smiled and scratched his head. He obviously knew that the screams in the room were common, so he didn't care, and didn't think of other directions.
"Do you remember about when that was?"
"Then how can I remember it clearly? I'm always in a daze at night. Besides, who would remember this? I have it every night. It's so annoying."
Scar Parry was furious: "You bastard, you are useless, get the **** out of here!"
But the young man is not afraid at all: "What nonsense are you talking about?" He rolled his eyes: "Who else is willing to help you work at night except me? Why can't they do it? Can't the tavern rely on family members at night? I'm leaving , and the other brothers will go too."
Scar Parry was also full of anger: "Whether you like to go or not, go home as soon as possible to herd the sheep~www.readwn.com~Kill and the others discuss it and gather all the information.
Everyone finally decided to go to see if the algae-headed Parian was still in the town at this time. To appear is to cover up. Secondly, Mr. Pawei also knew that this guy had been letting his subordinates steal money from merchants, stealing while the other party was drunk.
Although it was just Scar Parry's confession, it was considered a crime.
I don't know, but I know that they will definitely be arrested. After all, Rat Grass Town is a town that relies on trade routes to maintain its economy and scale. Such harm to merchants is obviously harmful to the interests of the local lord.
Before leaving, Keel told Scar Parry not to let people go to the dead man's house, and to wait until the matter is over before tidying up.
"Okay, okay, if you catch someone, remember to take me to give him a few ruthless blows like just now. ##@, you've hurt me."
Kiel and his party hurried downstairs, joined the town soldiers outside the tavern, and walked directly towards the shop of the algae head Parian.
-
From the window of an empty room on the second floor of the tavern where you could see the street, Scar Parry rubbed his chest, and then spat **** spit on the ground beside him.
"Uncle, why do you spit on the ground casually? It's very troublesome for us to clean up."
The guy complained, and looked up at his relative boss, but was taken aback immediately, because the boss, who was usually scary when he looked at him, was even more scary now.
That face full of flesh is full of cruelty.
"Little weed rat, you think I'm easy to bully, don't you? If you don't look good to you, you won't be recruited when I'm old, right?"
"Seaweed head? Or was it done by Yisi Daotou?"
