This is a small city called Guicheng.

After dawn, the gates of the city opened, and the three of them entered the city, going to the inn first.

They walked all the way, observing the surroundings all the way.

It seems that people from all over the world often come and go in the city, and the common people don't have much reaction to Shen Zheyan holding the sword, but the people who come and go take a few extra glances at Junzi Shu.

Gentleman Book looked left and right with great interest in the surroundings, and felt that this place was no different from other cities. The people seemed very stable and peaceful, and no one showed nervous or panic expressions.

Shen Zheyan also found out that there must be more than one incident like yesterday, that is to say, there must be more than one person who died, but the expressions of the people in this city are very relaxed, as if they didn't feel anything, this city also It's not big, if one or two people are lost, someone will definitely know, so it's a bit strange.

Junzishu asked the way, and came to the largest inn in the city, saying that it was the largest, but it was not enough to compare with Jinling.

Shen Zheyan asked for three upper rooms, this time the room is enough, Junzishu doesn't need to be in the same room with Shen Zheyan, Junzishu is a little melancholy.

"Shopkeeper, it seems that your calculation of the money is not right."

Wei Zinan looked at it, feeling something was wrong.

"As a rule of our store, beauties get half the discount, but you don't have to."

The shopkeeper is a young man with a rather elegant temperament. He is fiddling with the abacus, smiling, and even winks at Junzishu. Junzishu looks at him with a smile. This person is a bit interesting.

"Can it still be like this?"

And this kind of operation?

"That's it."

There is such an operation.

"Thank you shopkeeper, let's go upstairs."

Jun Zishu took the sign given by the shopkeeper, and chose the room next to Shen Zheyan.

The three of them first gathered in Shen Zheyan's room, discussing the next plan.

"Let's go to find out the news first. Yesterday the man said something like don't blame him, but blame the master if you want to blame. It means that the mastermind should be someone with high status and status in this city."

Shen Zheyan analyzed, and the other two nodded in agreement.

"Separately inquire about any powerful people in this city, no matter whether the reputation is good or bad, and then ask if anyone is missing. In short, the more information you get, the better. It's best not to startle the snake."

"it is good."

Jun Zishu walks casually in the city, his red dress stands out from the crowd.

She sat at a wonton stand and ordered a bowl of wontons.

The aunt selling wontons saw a pretty little girl, took a rag to clean up the bowl in front of the gentleman's book, and wiped the table twice more.

"The girl looked at her face, did she come from another place?"

"Yes."

"Come down from Jinling, are you going to Weishui?"

The aunt asked while putting wontons in the pot.

"Ma'am, how do you know?"

Junzi Shu put on a surprised look, looking a little confused.

"Because there are too many people like this. People from other places come and go, basically in this direction. The location of my wonton stall is inconspicuous, but there are quite a few customers who come."

The aunt picked up the cooked wontons, put them in a large white bowl, and placed them in front of Junzishu. The white wonton wrappers were wrapped with meat fillings, and the green onions added, looked very appetizing. move.

"Mother, are you from this city?"

"Yeah, I've been living here."

"oh oh."

Gentleman Shu scooped up a wonton with a spoon, blew on it, and took a half bite carefully.

"what about the taste?"

"good to eat."

Junzishu gave a thumbs up and gave a good review.

"That's right, I've been setting up this stall for more than ten years, and all the food I've eaten have been agreed to be good. There are still many people who come here to eat here when they come back."

Jun Zishu nodded with a smile, and continued to eat wontons in small bites.

"By the way, ma'am, I want to ask, is there anything interesting here?"

"Fun? That's not true. Our place is not big, and our feet are fast. We can finish our place in less than half a day. Most people come and go to rest for a while, and don't stop much. , so we see a lot of people in this place, and it’s lively coming and going, but there are only a few people who stay here all the time, and we are all clear about it.”

The aunt shook her head, and her words revealed a lot of information that Junzishu wanted.

"Well, I'm going to stay here for a few days."

"How many days does the girl want to stay here? There is nothing good to do here, why not go to Weishui earlier?"

"That's true, but I have to wait for someone here, so I have to stay for a few days. There shouldn't be any bad people here, right?"

Junzishu made a cowardly and scared expression, which made the aunt laugh.

"Little girl, you can relax, there are no bad people here, and the law and order are very good."

"is it?"

"Yes."

The aunt answered in the affirmative, as if she was laughing at the gentleman's book for worrying too much.

Jun Zishu gave the money after eating the wontons, and left the alley.

The aunt said just now that there are many people coming and going here, but there are not many permanent residents. Everyone knows who they are. She also said that the law and order here is very good. If what she said is true, then the person from last night The corpses and those who were buried earlier may not be people from this city. To be precise, they are not people who live in this city permanently, but may be travelers who come and go and rest here.

This is equivalent to the transfer station between Jinling and Weishui. Many people pass by here every day, traffickers, caravans, people from the rivers and lakes, scholars rushing for exams, rich and poor, and if one or two inconspicuous people disappear, there will be no one. Know.

Jun Zishu was walking on the street while thinking, a little absent-minded, and then felt that he had been bumped, and turned around immediately.

[Host, your money was stolen, it was a child. 】

I found it.

Where is the law and order here, really.

Jun Zishu chased after that person, weaving back and forth among the crowd, Xiao Huaxian had always locked on the location of that person, she was not afraid of being lost.

Junzishu got rid of the crowd and followed to the backyard of a house, and Xiaohuaxian said that the person was inside.

Junzishu is thinking about whether he should go in or not.

After thinking for a few seconds, Junzi flipped the book lightly into the yard, held his breath, and stuck it to the window.

There was more than one person inside, two people were talking.

"Little Shitou, are you sure she is a very beautiful girl?"

A young man's voice came from inside, full of surprise.

"This time, I swear that she is really, really beautiful. I have observed her for a long time. She is wearing a red dress. She is so beautiful. You must like it."

"You are finally reliable once, give me the purse."

"Give."

"Where is she?"

"I took it from Sijiaokou, she should still be around there, if she finds that she has lost her purse."

"Row."

Meng Lingxiao pushed open the door with the money bag, and looked at Jun Zishu who was standing not far away and looking at him.

"Little rock."

"What are you doing, I haven't finished eating yet."

There was a little dissatisfaction in the boy's voice from inside.

"Is the owner of the purse you're talking about a beautiful little girl in red?"

"Yes."

"Long white and clean, with a hairpin on her head, and a small black mole at the corner of her eye?"

"Maybe, I didn't see it that carefully."

"Come out."

Meng Lingxiao swallowed, and pulled out the small stones in the room.

"Is it her?"

"That's right, that's right..."

Xiao Shitou suddenly realized something was wrong, and took a step back, shrinking behind Meng Lingxiao.

The atmosphere was bewildered and awkward, Meng Lingxiao looked at the girl who was smiling at them, and raised the purse in her hand.

"Well, girl, my kid is not sensible, I just taught him a lesson, and I'm going to take this back to you."

Meng Lingxiao smiled awkwardly, handed over the money bag, and looked around at Junzishu, she was indeed a beautiful girl.

"I heard what you said just now."

This is probably a way to flirt with girls. The child looks at the target and touches the money bag, and then gives it to the young man, who then takes the money bag to strike up a conversation in a personable manner. Gentleman Book imagined the scene and added this in front of him. 80.00% of the girls will fall in love with the handsome value of a young man, of course she is an exception.

"Hahaha, it's all a misunderstanding."

Meng Lingxiao scratched his head, not knowing how to explain it.

"How did you get here?"

Little Shitou hid behind Meng Lingxiao, with an expression like he had seen a ghost. He was walking so fast, and he was walking on a winding path. He was not familiar with this place, so he couldn't follow him at all. He was sure he was This is the first time I saw this person in Guicheng.

"Followed you here."

In fact, it is the credit of Xiaohuaxian GPS.

"Girl, I'm really sorry. In fact, this is all a misunderstanding, but the explanation is unclear, so I won't explain it at all. If there is nothing else, we will leave first. See you some other day."

Meng Lingxiao took Xiao Shitou's hand and wanted to slip away. This girl is obviously very good at martial arts, so she will be beaten if she stays here.

"It's something, wait a minute."

"Girl, please speak."

Meng Lingxiao pretended to be serious, and turned to face the gentleman's book.

"I want to ask you guys something."

"Just ask, I know many things about Guicheng, what do you want to hear, girl?"

Meng Lingxiao patted his chest and said confidently.

"Do you know that anyone in this city is missing?"

"Missing? No, no, I haven't heard of it."

Meng Lingxiao shook his head and waved his hands, but Xiao Shitou hesitated to speak.

"really do not know?"

"I don't know, we are very safe here, and there will be no one missing."

"Missing, do you mean disappearing suddenly?"

Little Stone asked.

"Yes, what do you know?"

Jun Zishu bent down and looked at Xiaoshi.

"Many days ago, I can't remember which night. I went to deliver the things and came back. I saw someone walking into the bamboo forest and never came out again. I was curious and ran in. There was no one inside. He Just disappeared."

Xiao Shitou recalled that he was hit on the head by Meng Lingxiao.

"Why didn't you tell me?"

"I thought it was a ghost. I said hell, you must laugh at me, so I won't tell you!"
