Everyone in the inn rushed towards the stables, and found that there was something wrong in the stables. The horses that were strong and powerful yesterday were dying today. He lost his breath, and his whole body shriveled, like skin and bones.

"My Treading Snow!" "My Feiyan!"

"What's wrong with you, Chitu, wake up, Chitu!"

Including the players, the travelers at the inn were heartbroken at this moment.

For no other reason, for a knight who walks the rivers and lakes, a horse that gets along day and night is like a close comrade-in-arms.In addition, horses are expensive and rare, equivalent to a small car in later generations, ordinary people can't afford them at all, and those who can afford them are naturally cherished as treasures.

For a time, there were not a few heartbroken people, and some Jianghu people even clamored for the inn to lose money.

Accidents happened one after another in the inn, the waiter seemed to be on the verge of fainting, and the lady in charge was also very frightened, and quickly comforted her: "Everyone, calm down, since these horses are fostered in the inn, we will take good care of them." Ah, we didn't expect this accident..."

Players are even more heartbroken, because the game "Jianghu" is extremely realistic. Unlike other games, equipment and mounts are given away at the beginning of the game. Their horses are liver missions to save money, and they have enough money to go to the horse dealer in Jiangnan City to buy them. .The horse merchant also said that players can name their horses.

For a while, there were not a few players who named their horses "Zhaoyeyu Lion", "Lightning White Horse", "Red Rabbit", "Wuzhi", and "Claw Yellow Feidian". , the result actually said that it was gone.

"Did they eat something they shouldn't eat?" The first thing the players suspected was this, and their condemning eyes turned to Wucaihei.

The colorful Hei turned pale in shock, and immediately shook his head: "I'm not, I don't! I just accepted the errand task of taking care of the horse from the shopkeeper's wife this morning, and something happened to the horse as soon as I arrived."

He held a handful of fodder in his hand, and others saw nothing wrong with it. They were all ordinary barley, soybeans, and sorghum, and it was impossible for the horses in the stable to die overnight.

On the contrary, Shen Jiangling is well-informed. He squatted down and stroked the neck of a fine horse. After careful inspection, his expression was slightly surprised. He said to Ruan Xuezong: "Little friend, there are bite holes in the neck of horses. The baby is weak, and the blood has been sucked dry."

As soon as this remark came out, everyone was shocked, and they went to check their horses one after another, and they found subtle bite marks hidden under the horse's mane.

Now, Zheng Butou also found that things were not simple.

"It's so irritating! Who did this? This is a horse I bought with half a year's worth of money without eating or drinking, and it was sucked dry overnight." "Captain Zheng, don't arrest people yet, you So if you have the ability, let’s check it out!" Everyone was so angry that they cursed, even the waiter in the shop begged bitterly: "The fact that the horse died strangely has nothing to do with this shop, sir, you can solve the case like a god, and you must help the young man to make the decision. .”

Zheng Butou could only respond.

He came to Tianzi No. [-] room again, and found that just as the waiter said, the door was closed, everything was there, but people had disappeared.

Zheng Butou restrained himself, took a breath, found a portrait, and showed it to the shop waiter, "Come and see, is the missing young master painted with this person?"

When everyone looked at it, they were almost blinded by the local tyrant's air in the portrait.

The young master in the portrait was wearing a gorgeous gold silk robe, the belt was inlaid with gold and jade, and even the front of the boots were embroidered with red agate. He was either rich or noble.Looking at the annoying phoenix eyes and thin lips, it is the wayward rich businessman who threatened to lose his priceless sword yesterday and wanted to search the store.

"It's him, this young master!" The shop clerk nodded hastily, but he also added a detail, "When this young master checked in, he was still holding a sword in his hand."

"It's his fault that he has such a flamboyant personality."

Zheng Butou looked silent.

Players complained one after another: "Who drew this painting? How could he be so handsome when he provoked Zongzong? This beautification is at least ten times the filter."

"Let me just say, a level 20 NPC has such an arrogant attitude. It really is not a simple person, but the son of the richest man in Jinling City."

"Could it be that he killed someone and fled in fear of crime?"

These whispering voices were not quiet at all. Amidst the discussions, Zheng Butou covered his temples, looking extremely headache.

Wang Sheng is the son of the richest man in Jinling City, and also the demon king of Jinling City. Every time he gets into trouble, he will tell the story that his father and Zheng Butou are sworn brothers, so no one in Jinling City dares to provoke him.Because of the friendship between the fathers, no matter how troublesome Wang Sheng is, he can be regarded as Zheng Butou's nephew. Now that he has disappeared, Zheng Butou can't let him go.

Zheng Butou is an expert at investigating cases. He briefly wrote down these three incidents on the tissue paper he carried with him.

On the surface, these three cases seem to have nothing to do with each other. At least in his opinion, the murder case of Ruan Xuezong is already well-documented and confirmed. The only thing left to investigate is these two matters.

All these things happened just last night.

Zheng Butou was about to inquire about the situation when he suddenly found a group of players who were more active than him. The reason was naturally that Ruan Xuezong released a mission——

[Ding, the plot mission "Investigate the Truth" has been triggered]

[Mission description: Ruan Xuezong was involved in a murder storm, and Zheng Butou of the Six Doors has identified him as the murderer and wants to arrest him and put him in prison.Whether the truth is right or wrong has been lost in the desolate night last night. What happened last night?Whether Ruan Xuezong is really the murderer or not, all young heroes, please work together to investigate and restore the truth! 】

[Task rewards: 30000 experience points, 3 taels of silver, 20 favorability points for all the inn staff, 10 favorability points for Ruan Xuezong alone]

[Task number: unlimited]

"Sure enough, it's a plot, and we're about to start solving the case again, brothers!" The players cheered instantly, "It's up to us to clear Zongzong's charges!"

"Everyone, don't let your guard down, everyone in the inn may be the murderer!"

"Send a few people, first go to the shopkeeper's wife to find out information." As the team leader, Rabbit Rabbit Pepper, just as she gave orders, a group of black and white players ran away.

The people of the six doors were robbed of their jobs, and they looked at each other for a while, and all looked at their boss.

Chief Zheng's brows furrowed, and he said coldly: "Zheng did not expect that the disciples of Xixin Villa are mediocre in martial arts, but they are loyal in their hearts."

Ruan Xuezong's tone was light: "Zheng Butou won the award, and they are just worried and want to get rid of the crime."

"What charges do you have to be cleared? The evidence is solid and you still want to quibble, and you use martial arts to commit crimes. You gangsters use martial arts to cause trouble every day!"

When Zheng Butou said these words, his tone was sharp and stinging, and his eyes shot at the audience. Almost everyone in the inn felt that they had been scolded, and they were angry for a while but did not dare to do anything.

Shen Jiangling shook his fan, pretending he didn't hear it.

After Zheng Butou glanced around, he fell on Ruan Xuezong again: "I have my eyes fixed on me, and your disciples don't want to protect you."

"You guys go too, don't lose to a group of ignorant and enthusiastic brats." Zheng Butou gave his subordinates a sidelong glance, and the subordinates immediately cupped their hands and said, "Yes!"

On the other side, the players went to the inn lobby.

They found the shopkeeper's lady NPC and asked for the account book for check-in registration.They had seen it with their own eyes, and Zong Zong showed his waist card to register.

According to Ruan Xuezong, waist badges are similar to identity proofs. Jinling City is a major city, and only those who have waist badges can stay in the top hotels. Those who do not want to show waist badges can only sleep on the streets.

Therefore, every person in the inn must have been registered. It is normal for players to want to see the check-in register.

This request is not excessive.

However, the proprietress was silent at first, and then she hesitated and said vaguely: "Guest officer, it is true that you need to show your waist card to stay at the top of the store, but this waist card is fake and real, and no one can tell. We are just an ordinary inn, and we dare not go too far." Disturbing the hotel guests."

Players understand in seconds: In the martial arts world view, ordinary people want to do business honestly, so they can only pretend to be deaf and dumb.The subtext of the shopkeeper's lady NPC, the identities of these passengers are all questionable, and the registration book can't provide much help.

"Then what should we do?" the players murmured, and the players in the screen recording group carried the cameras dedicatedly.

The lady in charge also sighed: "It's really unlucky for the small shop to be involved in the turmoil. It's turbulent today, and it may be closed tomorrow. The only thing I told the young heroes is that there are indeed many strange people in Jinling City recently. What is the unknown secret?"

Of course, even if there are speculations and doubts, ordinary people dare not speak out at all.

On the contrary, the waiter covered his face with a cloth and burst into tears, because if the inn closed down, he would also lose his job.Yesterday he was happy because the inn was full of people, but today he was sad because of the bad things caused by the people.

Seeing this scene, the players not only did not sympathize with the two, but laughed out loud.

"Don't worry, lady shopkeeper, your inn will not go bankrupt! This is the official scene of the plot. After the public beta, there will definitely be countless players coming to check in."

The shopkeeper's wife was wiping her tears sadly, when she heard it, she said, "???"

She couldn't understand what these young heroes were talking about.

"Since the register has no reference value, let's split up and visit." As soon as the captain spoke, the players immediately started running.

"I'm sorry, please cooperate with us to investigate the situation." A player mustered up his courage, picked up a small notebook, and found the handsome young man who was drinking in the lobby, "You are a guest in room No. , where are you, and what are you doing, can anyone prove it? Have you heard anything else? "

The young man looked eighteen or nineteen years old. He was originally handsome and handsome, but the unfathomable level of "???" made his appearance a little more frightening.The players were all flabbergasted, they had to form a group before they dared to get close.

Seeing people from Xixin Villa come to ask, the young man raised his eyebrows, as if he was very interested, he didn't put down the wine glass with his fingers, his eyes were slightly closed lazily, as if he was recalling, "I was very interested last night. , and played Xiao in the room for a while..."

Midnight Musicians.Disturbing people in the middle of the night.

The player writes these two keywords, "Hmmm and then?"

"Then I rested alone. I was alone, and no one could prove it. Maybe some passengers heard the sound of Xiao and could prove something for me." The young man's long eyelashes drooped, "As for what I heard... ..."

The young man suddenly smiled and said: "It's very lively next door. The lonely men and widows get together in the same room, as if they spent about a cup of tea alone. I would like to know more about that cup of tea. Young Master Ruan and the girl in green did it in the room. What, what did you say again?"

Shhhhhhhhh, the eyes of the whole inn suddenly flew to Ruan Xuezong, these eyes included but not limited to Zheng Botou, who looked more suspicious of him, Shen Jiangling who was stunned for a few seconds and smiled slightly, and everyone who pricked up their ears to listen to the wind and snow.

We want to know too!

The players were calm and upright on the surface, but screamed crazily inside.

Ruan Xuezong looked at the boy coldly, and found that the boy's rhythmic ability was simply top-notch.
