When the guy saw Lu Dashi and Lao Zhang entering the door, he hurriedly greeted him, "Two guest officers, do you live in the hotel?" ”

Lao Zhang waved his hand, "Don't stop!" ”

As he spoke, Lao Zhang had already walked in the direction of the counter.

"Shopkeeper, do you remember me?"

The shopkeeper sitting at the counter, after hearing Lao Zhang's words, thought hard for a while, but still didn't remember who Lao Zhang was, but it was not easy to offend Lao Zhang, so he said with a smile, "I know, you are the poor master in the yamen?" ”

Lao Zhang nodded solemnly, "It's good to know, do you remember that night when we came to search?" ”

The shopkeeper nodded, "Of course I remember, is there any problem?" ”

When Lao Zhang heard this, he patted the counter, "Shopkeeper, on the first day of our search, did any guests leave?" ”

Hearing Lao Zhang's question, the shopkeeper didn't even hesitate, and nodded, "Of course there is, we are an inn, and people come in and out every day." ”

Lao Zhang nodded, "Then let me ask you, the day before we searched, did a group of seven or eight people come to the guest house?" ”

This time, the shopkeeper hesitated, but he was not sure, so he hurriedly took out an account book from under the counter and flipped it quickly.

Soon, the shopkeeper stopped flipping the page and began to look at it slowly, and after a while, he raised his head to look at Lao Zhang and shook his head, "No, there weren't as many people as you said that day." ”

Hearing the shopkeeper's answer, Lao Zhang was stunned for a moment, then turned his head and looked at Lu Dashi with an inquiring gaze, "Lu Zhutou, look at ......." ”

Lu Dashi smiled, "Shopkeeper, you continue to look behind you and see if there are seven or eight people coming to stay in the hotel in the past few days!" ”

Hearing Lu Dashi's words, the shopkeeper began to bow his head again and start the ledger to check the list on the ledger.

This time the time was relatively long, and the time of a stick of incense had passed, and the shopkeeper raised his head, shook his head with a wry smile, "No, the old man has turned to 6 days ago, but I haven't found the people that the poor master said." ”

After hearing the shopkeeper's words, Lao Zhang was immediately deflated, "Lu Zhutou, it seems that they really didn't live in this inn!" ”

Lu Dashi nodded, frowned and thought for a moment, suddenly remembered the matter of Ci'an Temple, and had some doubts in his heart.

Could it be that Li Wenchang and others really live in Ci'an Temple?

But it's not right, Ci'an Temple is far away from here, and if they want to come here from Ci'an Temple at night, it will definitely not be so easy, and they will definitely be questioned by patrols.

It was for this reason that Lu Dashi wanted to look for Li Wenchang's traces near the yamen.

If Li Wenchang and the others really lived in Ci'an Temple, needless to say that it was very difficult to come here that night, it would not be very convenient for them to say that they usually lived.

If they want to save Ge Feiying and Zhang Nanhao, they must find out the four weeks of the Yamen, if they rush to this side from the far away Ci'an Temple every day, it is unlikely to think about it.

Therefore, Lu Dashi guessed that although Li Wenchang and the others lived in Ci'an Temple, they must have a place to live here, so that it would be convenient to investigate the affairs in the yamen.

Thinking of this, Lu Dashi turned his head to look at the account book on the counter, and asked in a low voice, "Shopkeeper, then look at it, these people I am talking about may be divided into two groups, or even three groups, you go to check according to this line of thought, see if you can find anything?" ”

After hearing Lu Dashi's words, before the shopkeeper could speak, Lao Zhang immediately suddenly said with a smile, "Lu Zhutou, it's really powerful, if they are divided into two groups, or three groups, and the number of people in each group is reduced, it will naturally not arouse the suspicion of others." ”

After listening to the words of the two, the shopkeeper also nodded again and again, and then hurriedly lowered his head to check the account book.

After a long while, the shopkeeper raised his head to look at Lu Dashi, stretched out his finger to the account book, and said with a smile.

"Look, are these people you're looking for?"

When Lu Dashi heard this, he hurriedly looked down, and sure enough, on the same page of the account book, there were two lists of guest houses, which attracted Lu Dashi's attention.

The reason why Lu Dashi paid attention was because the two groups were three people and four people respectively.

Together, these two groups are seven people, and they are in the same condition as the thieves that Ma Limin said.

Lu Dashi nodded, "Shopkeeper, do you still have an impression of these two groups?" ”

The shopkeeper frowned and thought about it carefully, but shook his head with a wry smile, "I don't have much impression, there are so many people who come to stay in the hotel every day, plus this happened a few days ago, I really can't remember it clearly." ”

When Lao Zhang on the side heard this, he immediately shouted, "How is this possible, it's only been four or five days, how can you not remember clearly?" ”

The shopkeeper shook his head with a wry smile, "When nothing happens, these people who live in the store, who will pay attention, as long as they pay attention to the way they have a guide, don't steal the things in the store, and check out when they leave, that's fine." ”

Lu Dashi picked up the ledger on the table and looked at it carefully.

The first group was three people who stayed in the inn at the time of the visit, and the second group was four people who lived in the inn at the time of the application.

The difference between the time when the two groups stayed in the inn was about half an hour, and the most important thing was that when they checked out, it was also on the same day, and the difference was less than the time of a stick of incense.

It's not strange to stay in the inn on the same day, but to stay in the inn on the same day and leave the inn on the same day, the difference is less than half an hour, which is indeed a bit strange.

Lu Dashi turned his head to look at the shopkeeper, and asked in a deep voice, "I see that it is recorded that they stayed for two days, since you don't remember these guests, can you call the guys and let us ask?" ”

Hearing this, the shopkeeper nodded, "Of course you can!" ”

As he spoke, the shopkeeper had already turned his head and waved his hand to a guy in the distance, "Go and call the pillar and the lock, and say that I have something to do with them!" ”

When the guy heard this, he hurriedly answered, turned around and ran towards the backyard.

It wasn't long before the man came back with the pillar and the lock.

When the shopkeeper saw the visitor, he hurriedly turned his head to Lu Dashi and said, "Poor master, the two of them are pillars and locks, and it was the two of them who served these two groups of guests that day, if you have anything to say, just ask them!" ”

Lu Dashi nodded, picked up the account book on the table, looked at the room number on it, turned his head to look at the pillar and the lock, and asked with a smile.

"Room 38, who of you is in charge?"

After hearing Lu Dashi's words, the slightly taller pillar hurriedly responded, "It's me!" ”

Hearing this, Lu Dashi nodded, then turned his head to look at the lock again, "Then you are the person in charge of room 39?" ”

The lock nodded hurriedly, "Yes, I'm in charge of room 39." ”

Lu Dashi nodded, "I don't know if you two still remember, three days ago, there were three people living in room 38 and 4 people living in room 39, do you two still have an impression?" ”

After hearing Lu Dashi's words, the pillar and the lock frowned there and recalled, but shook their heads at the same time.

Zhu Zi preemptively said, "The guests of No. 38 only come back at night, and they are basically not in the room during the day, although I am the one who serves room No. 38, I rarely see them. ”

The lock on the side also nodded and said, "The pillar is right, the guests in room 39 and the guests in room 38, I always feel as if they are a group, they go out every morning, although they don't go out at the same time, but they don't have a long difference." ”

Zhuzi also said with a smile, "Not only did they basically go out at the same time, but it seems that the time to come back is about the same, they only come back when everyone is about to fall asleep, and the difference is not long." ”

After hearing the words of the two, Lao Zhang hurriedly asked, "Then have you seen them say hello?" ”

Zhu shook his head, "They are basically not in the inn, and when they come back, they hide in their rooms and don't come out, so they rarely meet." ”

Lu Dashi suddenly asked, "Then do you know where they went out?" ”

Hearing Lu Dashi's question, Zhu Zi and Lock shook their heads at the same time, "I don't know, although we are in charge of rooms 38 and 39, we are not only in charge of these two rooms. ”

When the shopkeeper heard this, he explained, "There are a total of 45 rooms in the store, and there are not many people, and everyone is basically responsible for about 5 rooms. ”

Lao Zhang sighed, "Speaking of which, don't we know anything?" ”

Speaking of this, Lao Zhang's tone paused, his eyes suddenly lit up, he turned his head to look at the pillar and the lock and asked, "Then what kind of people are they, you should always remember, right?" ”

The pillar nodded, "The three guests who live at No. 38 are all young people in their 20s. ”

The lock also hurriedly said, "The four guests who live at No. 39 are all in their thirties and forties. ”

Lao Zhang looked at the pillar and the lock blankly, then turned his head to look at Lu Dashi, and asked with a wry smile, "Lu Zhutou, what should we do now, we don't know anything, how to investigate?" ”

Lu Dashi smiled and shook his head, "Now that we have set our goal, this can be regarded as a kind of progress. ”

Speaking of this, Lu Dashi's tone paused, and then continued, "I think they shouldn't be invisible, as long as we inquire in the past 4 weeks, we should be able to know what they are doing when they go out?" ”

When Lao Zhang heard this, he shook his head, "But if they hide, then we won't be able to find anything." ”

After listening to Lao Zhang's words, Lu Dashi stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder, and said with a smile, "Do you think that they came all the way to Nanjun City just to hide?" ”

Speaking of this, Lu Dashi's tone paused, but then, he didn't wait for Lao Zhang to answer his words, so he continued to speak to himself.

"Since they chose to live here, they must have their purpose, and since they have a purpose, we will definitely be able to find their clues."

After hearing Lu Dashi's words, Lao Zhang scratched his head embarrassedly, "I thought there was no way to check it?" ”

Lu Dashi put the ledger back on the counter, and then patted Lao Zhang's shoulder, "Since you understand, then you should go back to the yamen immediately, find some people to come over, and check it out in the past 4 weeks to see if you can find anything?" ”

Speaking of this, Lu Dashi's tone paused, and his tone lowered a few points before continuing, "I suspect that they want to observe the movements of the yamen nearby, so you should start from this aspect and see if you can find anything?" ”

After hearing Lu Dashi's words, Lao Zhang nodded hurriedly, although he was not good at investigating the case, but if he wanted to ask something, Lao Zhang was still completely competent.

The two of them left the inn, and Lao Zhang was about to turn around and go back to the yamen, when he saw that Lu Dashi did not come, he hurriedly retreated back, and asked in surprise, "Lu Zhutou, aren't you coming?" ”

Lu Dashi shook his head, "Lao Zhang, don't you want to be a fast catcher, I'll give you a chance this time, if you do it well, I'll let Li Zhutou take you into the fast catcher." ”

Speaking of this, Lu Dashi's tone paused, and then he continued, "If you can't even handle this matter, then I advise you to go for this idea, just guard the gate of the yamen." ”

After hearing Lu Dashi's words, Lao Zhang's eyes immediately widened, and he said loudly, "Lu Zhutou, don't worry, I will definitely find out about this matter, and wait for my good news." ”

After speaking, Lao Zhang couldn't wait to run in the direction of the yamen.

Looking at the back of Lao Zhang's departure, the smile on Lu Dashi's face gradually disappeared, but his brows furrowed deeply.

Who are these 7 people found in the inn?

Could it be that these 7 people saved Ge Feiying and Zhang Nanhao?

But this doesn't make sense, because Lu Dashi's consideration should be Li Wenchang and others to save Ge Feiying and Zhang Nanhao.

But the problem is here, according to Li Zhutou's words, they found traces of Li Wenchang and others in Ci'an Temple, which shows that Li Wenchang and others have been living in Ci'an Temple.

Since Li Wenchang and the others have been living in Ci'an Temple, who are these people living in the inn?

Is it an inconsequential person, or is it in league with Li Wenchang and others?

After thinking about it for a long time, Lu Dashi decided to go to Ci'an Temple and ask carefully, what is going on?

Lu Dashi found a carriage on the road, and took the carriage in the direction of Ci'an Temple.

The location of the yamen is far away from Ci'an Temple, and if you want to walk there, I am afraid it will take too much time.

The most important thing is that in three days, he will leave Nanjun City and rush to the Cao Gang.

Time is running out now, and everything needs to be done quickly.

Sitting in the carriage, Lu Dashi looked at the pedestrians outside through the car window, as well as the various shops on the side of the road, but he was thinking in his heart why this matter was so strange.

Li Wenchang has obviously rescued people, why do he have to play so many tricks?

What are they for?

There is another important issue, which is also the one that Lu Dashi is most worried about.

Cao Gang, Li Wenchang, have they been to the Cao Gang?

Is the current Cao Gang neutral, or like Li Wenchang and others, they have also joined the Shenwei Army?

This is the most important problem, if there is no accident, three days later, Lu Dashi will go to the Cao Gang to solve the problem of Ge Feiying and Zhang Nanhao.

But if the Cao Gang has already joined the Shenwei Army, let yourself go to the Cao Gang this time, I am afraid it will be the last journey of your life.

Just when Lu Dashi was thinking about it, the carriage slowly stopped, and the coachman sitting in front had already lifted the curtain in front of him and said loudly.

"Guest, we have arrived at Ci'an Temple, please get off the bus!"

When Lu Dashi heard this, he hurriedly walked out of the carriage, jumped out of the carriage, took out some copper plates and threw them to the coachman, and then turned his head to look in the direction of Ci'an Temple.

Lu Dashi has never been to Ci'an Temple, and the last time he came, he only went to the small gate behind Ci'an Temple with Li Zhutou and others, and checked the footprints outside, and did not come to the main gate of Ci'an Temple.
