Xiao Han was a little frustrated and a little confused.

Last night, he waited here all night, but Su Laosan did not come back.

Why?

Could it be that Su Laosan knew that he was looking for him?

Or was he somewhere unable to leave, so he didn't come back?

Xiao Han felt that since the investigation of this matter, nothing had gone well.

According to the little beggar, every time Su Laosan went to the inn, he would come back when it was just dark.

However, it has been all night, and he still hasn't returned.

Xiao Han even wondered if Su Laosan would never come back.

The question is, why didn't Su Laosan come back?

If he has something to delay, then, as long as he waits, he will definitely be able to wait until he returns.

However, if Su Laosan didn't plan to come back, it would be useless to wait any longer.

What is the real situation?

Xiao Han decided that he couldn't wait any longer, because Zhang Zhutou had already said that today was the fifteenth, and Su Chuanxin was very likely to do it today.

And Li Yuemei is the person Su Chuanxin hates the most, according to everyone's guess, Su Chuanxin's target should be Li Yuemei.

Su Laosan didn't come back last night, did he also go to prepare for this matter?

With doubts in his heart, Xiao Han left the residential area and walked in the direction of the city inn.

……

Maybe it's the wrong time, when Xiao Han arrived at the city inn, there was not a single guest in the hall of the inn, and even the shopkeeper Wang, who had been sitting behind the counter, was gone at the moment, and was replaced by a middle-aged man in his 30s.

As soon as Xiao Han entered the door, a guy came up quickly, and after seeing that it was the fast catcher in the yamen, he immediately said with a smile, "Poor master, are you looking for our shopkeeper?" ”

Xiao Han hesitated for a moment, then said with a smile, "No need, I just want to ask something, even if I ask you." ”

The store is not busy now, and the guy is also happy to be idle, so he hurriedly made a gesture of invitation to Xiao Han, "Poor master, then please sit down and talk, the store is not busy now, you ask." ”

Xiao Han sat down at the table, saw that the guy was still standing, and said with a smile, "Sit down, haven't you already said it, there is no one in the store now, and you don't have to greet customers, let's sit down and talk?" ”

The guy looked around, "Poor master, wait a minute, I'll make you a pot of tea." ”

After speaking, the guy was about to leave, Xiao Han hurriedly said, "By the way, get some food, I haven't eaten breakfast yet?" ”

"Okay!"

The man walked away quickly, and after a while, he came back with a tray.

There weren't many things on the tray either, a pot of tea, a teacup, a stack of small pickles, a bowl of porridge, and a baked cake.

The guy put the tray on the table, "Poor master, if it's not enough, you're talking!" ”

Xiao Han nodded, he was indeed hungry, so he directly picked up the porridge on the table and took a big sip.

After putting down the porridge in his hand, Xiao Han raised his head to look at the guy in front of him, and asked in a low voice, "I just want to ask, do you remember that Han Gongzi?" ”

"Han Gongzi?"

Hearing Xiao Han's question, the guy was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile, "Poor master, is the Han Gongzi you are talking about, is it the Han Gongzi you inquired about?" ”

Xiao Han nodded, "It was two months ago that Han Gongzi who lived in room No. 5 on the first floor, do you have any impression?" ”

The guy didn't hesitate, and immediately nodded with a smile, "Poor master, you are the right person, let me tell you, I am the one who serves Han Gongzi's room." ”

Hearing the guy's answer, Xiao Han didn't expect it to be such a coincidence, and said with a smile, "That's really good, I'm young, in the entire inn, there should be no one more familiar with Han Gongzi than you, right?" ”

The guy nodded, "Of course, because I'm serving room five!" ”

Xiao Han smiled and asked, "Since you are the one who serves Han Gongzi, then let me ask you, did he behave abnormally during the time he lived here?" ”

"Unusual performance?"

The guy hesitated for a moment, then shook his head, "No, I didn't see any abnormal behavior, it's all normal, eat and sleep every day, go out for a walk in your free time, nothing different!" ”

Xiao Han frowned, "Then do you remember that beggar came to Han Gongzi?" ”

The guy nodded, "Of course I remember, by the way, is this kind of thing an anomaly?" ”

Xiao Han nodded, "Of course, since Han Gongzi is called Gongzi, he is naturally the son of a rich family, the question is how can he know a beggar, don't you think it's strange?" ”

Hearing Xiao Han's words, the guy nodded, "It's really a little strange, with Han Gongzi's identity, he really shouldn't know a beggar." ”

Xiao Han smiled and nodded, "Yes, that's what I said." ”

The man lowered his head and thought for a while, "Poor master, you say, is that beggar here to ask for money?" ”

Hearing this, Xiao Han not only smiled dumbly, "How is this possible, if you want money, Han Gongzi will just give it to him directly, why did you bring him back to the room?" ”

Speaking of this, Xiao Han's tone paused, but then, he didn't wait for the guy to answer his words, and continued to speak on his own.

"What's more, a guy who walked in from outside the door, if he asked for money, but there were so many people in combat power, then why did he have to ask for Han Gongzi, right?"

Hearing this, the guy slapped his thigh hard, "Poor master, that's the truth, they must know each other." ”

Xiao Han nodded, lowered his voice and asked, "What I want to know is what the conversation between the two of them is talking about, do you know?" ”

Hearing this, the guy hurriedly waved his hand, "Poor master, how is this possible, we were all busy in the front hall at that time, and Han Gongzi led the beggar back alone, what they talked about, I'm afraid no one knows." "3a Reading Network

If the guy answered, although Xiao Han didn't want to listen to it, it was also expected, because he had already asked Li San that day, if someone had been to that room, Li San would have said it, since he didn't say it, it proved that when Han Gongzi and the beggar talked, no guy had been to that room.

Xiao Han thought for a moment before he asked again, "You really didn't know when Han Gongzi and the beggar went to the room, but after they left, do you know where they went?" ”

The guy shook his head, "I don't know, Han Gongzi didn't tell me." ”

Hearing the guy's answer, Xiao Han frowned, "I know that Han Gongzi will definitely not tell you, I mean, can you guess where she will go?" ”

Speaking of this, Xiao Han's tone paused, and then he said slowly, "For example, before this beggar came, did he usually say where he was going?" ”

Hearing Xiao Han's question, the guy smiled bitterly and shook his head, "I don't know, Han Gongzi is actually not in the inn, he lived here for a total of two days, on the first day, he went out for a whole day, and did not go out the next morning, and when the beggar came, he went out again, and waited until almost the evening to come back, and after coming back, he immediately left the room and left the inn." ”

Speaking of this, the man's tone paused, and then he said slowly, "Han Gongzi stayed for two days in total, and basically didn't stay in the inn, except for the beggar, he hadn't seen anyone else.

So he didn't have much of a chance to talk, and I naturally didn't know where he wanted to go. ”

Hearing the guy's answer, Xiao Han frowned and asked tentatively, "Then in the past two days, when he went out, did he buy anything?" ”

The guy shook his head, "No, maybe I didn't see it, every time Han Gongzi came back, he was empty-handed and didn't take anything." ”

Xiao Han sighed secretly in his heart, and asked again, "Since Han Gongzi has never eaten here, have you heard him mention it, such as where the food is delicious, or where the wine is delicious?" ”

Hearing Xiao Han's question, the guy lowered his head and thought about it, then shook his head, "No, to be precise, Han Gongzi only stayed here for one night, and he came back very late that night, and after he came back, he didn't wash up, so he immediately closed the door and went to sleep, and it wasn't until the next day that he opened the door and asked me to wash his face for him." ”

Xiao Han finally sighed, "You mean to say that Han Gongzi stayed here for a total of two days, and after staying on the first day, he went out immediately, and it wasn't until the evening that he came back from outside."

And when you come back, you immediately close the door and go to bed, and you don't see him until the next morning. ”

Speaking of this, Xiao Han's tone paused, but then, he didn't wait for the guy to answer his words, and continued to speak on his own.

Then, when he had seen the beggar, he left the inn again, and when he returned, he withdrew from the room.

Xiao Han turned his head to look at the guy, "Am I right?" ”

Hearing Xiao Han's words, the guy hurriedly nodded, "Poor master, what you said is so right, it's as if you saw it, it's not wrong at all." ”

Xiao Han waved his hand, interrupting the man's compliment, "Just tell me directly, what did he say to you?" ”

The guy frowned, "What did you say, it's nothing, just a few ordinary words?" ”

Xiao Han turned his head to look out of the door, and suddenly asked, "Then do you remember which direction Han Gongzi went in when he went out on the first day?" ”

Hearing Xiao Han's question, the guy hesitated for a moment, and then shook his head, "I don't know, when he went out on the first day, I really didn't pay attention." ”

Xiao Han frowned, "You didn't pay attention on the first day, then, when Han Gongzi and the beggar went out on the second day, you should have noticed, which direction did the two of them go?" ”

This time, the guy replied very happily, and directly stretched out his hand and pointed in one direction, "I remember this matter clearly, they went over there." ”

Looking at the direction of the guy's finger, Xiao Han was taken aback, because, the direction the guy pointed to was actually left.

The location of the inn in the city is actually in a small alley, if you go to the left, cross the carriage shop, and walk to the street, it will not be far away, and you will reach the Li family's house.

If the guy is pointing in the right direction, then it means that Han Gongzi and the beggar are going in the opposite direction.

Xiao Han turned his head to look at the guy, frowned and asked, "Are you sure that Han Gongzi and the beggar did go to the left?" ”

The guy nodded immediately, "Of course it has changed, and I am not the only one who sees which direction Han Gongzi is going?" ”

Speaking of this, the man's tone paused, but then, without waiting for Xiao Han to answer his words, he continued to speak to himself.

"Poor master, what do you think, Han Gongzi and a beggar went out, such a strange thing, can you not watch it, so we all saw it, Han Gongzi must have walked to the left."

Hearing this, Xiao Han suddenly frowned, "I remember that Li San, the kitchen helper, once said that when they left that day, it was the beggar who left the inn first, and then, maybe Han Gongzi thought of something, so he hurriedly chased out." ”

Xiao Han looked at the guy with burning eyes, "Since they didn't leave together, how do you know that they all went to the left?" ”

The guy waved his hand, "Poor master, what's so strange about this, think about it, a beggar swaggered out of the store, we will definitely pay attention, right?"

Then, not long after the beggar went out, Han Gongzi chased him out, do you think we will pay attention?

So although they didn't come out together, everyone watched it.

What's more, although they didn't come out together, in fact, the time difference was very short, and if you said it, the difference was only a hundred steps. ”

Xiao Han picked up the baked cake on the table, put it in his mouth and chewed it slowly, thinking about it in his heart.

Do Han Gongzi and Su Laosan have anything to do with this matter?

According to the man's statement, they left the inn and went to the left, and the direction on the left could lead to the Li family's house.

Thinking of this, Xiao Han raised his head and looked at the guy, and asked with a smile, "By the way, you saw them leave, do you know where they went?" ”

The man hurriedly waved his hand, "How can we know that they are walking so fast, and we can't leave the inn, and we can't see where they are going?" ”

Xiao Han sighed, "So you can only see the direction they left, but you don't know where they're going, right?" ”

The guy nodded hurriedly, "Yes, you're right, that's the way it is." ”

Hearing the guy's answer, Xiao Han kept sighing in his heart, if anyone knew where Han Gongzi and they went, this matter would be much easier.

Thinking of this, Xiao Han's eyes suddenly lit up, raised his head to look at the guy, and asked with a smile, "Think about it, when Han Gongzi and the beggar left the inn, were there any other guests who also happened to leave at that time?" ”

Hearing this, the guy smiled bitterly and shook his head, "Poor master, how can you remember this, it's been two months since this incident, and it's not easy to remember Han Gongzi and that beggar, and I'm afraid other guests won't be able to remember it." ”

Xiao Han nodded and asked tentatively, "Even if you don't know, it doesn't matter, then think about it, at the time when Han Gongzi and the beggar left, is it possible that there will be other guests who also happen to leave?"

I mean, during that time, were there many guests leaving? ”

The guy smiled wryly and shook his head, "Don't remember? ”

Xiao Han's brows furrowed, his heart suddenly moved, and he asked with a smile, "What happened two months ago, you think about it now, it's really a little difficult."

If you were asked to look at the ledger and know which room was the guest, would it be possible for you to remember the events of that day? ”
