"Boss Wang, can you ask this store when it will be open at night?"

Hearing Huang Hanming's question, Wang Xing said with a smile, "There is no time regulation, as long as there are guests, I will keep open, unless there is no one, I will close." ”

Huang Hanming nodded, "Boss Wang, did you see a few beggars last night?" ”

"Beggars?"

Wang Xing waved his hand, "Two poor masters, how could the beggars come to my shop?" ”

Hearing this, Li Baosheng asked, "Boss Wang, do you mean that there are no beggars coming?" ”

Wang Xing nodded, "Of course there won't be, even if there is an occasional one, they will only be outside the door, and they will never dare to come in." ”

Huang Hanming frowned, "Boss Wang, did you have any guests to eat last night?" ”

Wang Xing nodded, "Of course there is, and there are quite a few?"

There were three tables of guests eating, and it wasn't until the early hours of the morning that they all went back, and the shop closed. ”

Hearing this, Huang Hanming immediately praised, "Boss Wang, you are so powerful, you are busy until the early hours of the morning at night, it's really hard!" ”

Speaking of this, Huang Hanming's tone paused, but then, he didn't wait for Wang Xing to answer his words, so he continued to speak on his own.

"Boss Wang, among the three tables of guests who ate yesterday, are there any people who look like beggars?"

Wang Xing shook his head, "Two poor masters, don't be joking, how can a beggar come to my shop to eat, definitely not?" ”

Li Baosheng suddenly asked, "Boss Wang, are you so sure, are you familiar with the three tables of guests last night?" ”

Hearing Li Baosheng's question, Wang Xing said with a smile, "Of the three tables of guests last night, two of them were people from the neighborhood, I know them all, and they all come all the time, so naturally they can't be beggars."

And the rest of the table, although I don't know them, but they are dressed in a way that can never be beggars. ”

Hearing this, Li Baosheng frowned, "How many people are there at the table you don't know?" ”

Wang Xing lowered his head and thought about it, and then said slowly, "There should be four of them, all of them in their 30s. ”

Speaking of this, Wang Xing's brows furrowed, as if he was remembering something, and after a while, he suddenly spoke, "It's really a little strange?" ”

Hearing Wang Xing say strange, Huang Hanming suddenly perked up and hurriedly asked, "Boss Wang, what's strange?" ”

Wang Xing waved his hand, "It's nothing, I just feel that they are dressed a little strangely, it's not a big deal!" ”

"Strangely dressed?"

Huang Hanming looked at Wang Xing and asked with some confusion, "Boss Wang, it's just clothes, can you still see the strangeness?" ”

Hearing Huang Hanming's question, Wang Xing nodded, "Of course, what kind of people wear what kind of clothes, so that they can match, and they are pleasing to the eye."

However, if you don't wear proper clothes, it will give people a very strange feeling? ”

Hearing this, Huang Hanming was stunned for a moment, then shook his head with a wry smile, "Yes, I don't think, I feel that as long as it is new clothes, it is better than old clothes?" ”

Wang Xing smiled and waved his hand, "Poor master, I don't think what you said is right, even if it is a new dress, but it doesn't fit, he will look awkward." ”

Speaking of this, Wang Xing's tone paused, but then, he didn't wait for Huang Hanming to answer his words, so he continued to speak to himself.

"For example, yesterday's guests, they were wearing new clothes, and they were all long shirts, and the material was very good, but they were wearing them, it was a little strange."

Hearing this, Li Baosheng suddenly asked, "Boss Wang, you said they are all wearing long shirts?" ”

Wang Xing nodded, "That's right, it's the kind of caftan that scholars always wear, some white and some blue." ”

Li Baosheng frowned and asked loudly, "Boss Wang, you said that the clothes they are wearing are awkward, is it not the right size?" ”

Wang Xing nodded, "The size is also very inappropriate, and these clothes don't seem to fit their appearance either." ”

Hearing this, Huang Hanming also reacted and hurriedly asked, "Boss Wang, among the four of them, is there a person with pockmarks on his face?" ”

"Pock?"

Hearing Huang Hanming's question, Wang Xing lowered his head and thought about it carefully, then shook his head with a wry smile, "I didn't see it, maybe the lights were dim at night, I couldn't see clearly, right?" ”

Huang Hanming frowned, and asked again, "Boss Wang, please think about it, are there any pockmarked people among them?" ”

Wang Xing shook his head, "It shouldn't be there, right?" ”

Hearing this, Li Baosheng hurriedly asked, "Boss Wang, are you sure that there are no people with pockmarks on their faces among them?" ”

Seeing that the two poor masters were struggling with the matter of Mazi, Wang Xing knew that the matter was a bit serious, and for a while, he was also a little skeptical of his judgment.

Wang Xing scratched his head, "Two poor masters, hearing you say this, the villain is not very sure." ”

Speaking of this, Wang Xing's tone paused, but then, he didn't wait for the two poor masters to answer his words, so he continued to speak to himself.

"Two poor masters, you also know that the lights are not bright at night, maybe it's too dark, so you don't see too clearly!"

Huang Hanming hurriedly said, "Boss Wang, think about it carefully, are there any people with pockmarks among them, this is very important?" ”

Hearing Huang Hanming's words, Wang Xing became more and more unsure, so he could only shake his head with a wry smile, "I'm really sorry, two poor masters, the villain can't remember clearly?" ”

Seeing that Wang Xing really couldn't remember, Li Baosheng frowned, "Boss Wang, did any beggars pass in front of your door last night?" ”

Wang Xing shook his head, "Poor master, how could the villain remember the outside, it was already dark at that time, even if you sit in the house, you can't see the outside?" ”

Huang Hanming sighed, "Boss Wang, the four people who are eating here, they should always say something during the meal, right?"

Do you remember what they said? ”

Hearing Huang Hanming's question, Wang Xing smiled bitterly and waved his hand, "Two poor masters, how can the villain eavesdrop on the conversation of the guests, I really didn't pay attention." ”

Huang Hanming hurriedly asked, "Boss Wang, even if it's just one or two sentences?" ”

Hearing that Huang Hanming must ask, Wang Xing frowned, lowered his head and thought about it, and then said slowly, "I seem to have heard them talk about Black Mountain City, but I don't know what they are talking about." ”

Li Baosheng suddenly asked, "Boss Wang, did they talk about breaking the temple or anything like that?" "020 reading

Huang Hanming also hurriedly said, "By the way, there is also the matter of Sujiazhuang, have they mentioned it?" ”

"Broken temple? Sujiazhuang? ”

Wang Xing lowered his head and thought about it, and then he didn't dare to say surely, "When I served them food, I seemed to have heard one of them say the word broken temple, and as for Sujiazhuang, I have no impression." ”

Li Baosheng was immediately overjoyed, and hurriedly asked, "Boss Wang, what did they say about the broken temple?" ”

Wang Xing frowned, "They seem to be saying something like leaving the broken temple, but after I came over, a few of them stopped talking." ”

Speaking of this, Wang Xing's tone paused, and then he said slowly, "I have a feeling, as if they are afraid of being heard by me, so when they saw me coming, they quickly put away the words." ”

Hearing Wang Xing's answer, Li Baosheng and Huang Hanming subconsciously glanced at each other and nodded slightly.

Huang Hanming turned his head to look at Wang Xing, and asked tentatively, "Boss Wang, there should always be a title between them, can you remember what they call each other?" ”

Hearing Huang Hanming's question, Wang Xing didn't hesitate, and nodded directly, "I know this, so I don't know what the other people are called, but through the statements of these people, it seems that they all respect one of them, and they all call this person the third brother?" ”

"Third brother?"

Huang Hanming was immediately overjoyed, "Boss Wang, are you sure that they do call that person the third brother?" ”

Wang Xing nodded, "Of course, and I can also see that the third brother among them has money, because when the bill is paid, the third brother takes out the money and then asks one person to settle the account." ”

Hearing this, Li Baosheng hurriedly asked, "Boss Wang, do you know what the surname of the person called the third brother is?" ”

Wang Xing shook his head, "This villain doesn't know, the villain only knows that the person is called the third brother, as for the rest, they haven't called each other, and the villain hasn't asked." ”

Li Baosheng turned his head to look at the situation in the hall, and suddenly asked, "Boss Wang, where did the three tables of guests who had dinner last night sit separately?" ”

This storefront is not very large, that is, there are four tables, one on each corner.

Hearing Li Baosheng's question, Wang Xing stretched out his hand and pointed to the table on the left side of the door, "Two poor masters, have you seen that table, those four people are sitting there?" ”

Hearing Wang Xing's words, Huang Hanming and Li Baosheng turned their heads to look over, only to find that this table was the farthest place from the counter behind.

Since the two sides are the farthest, Wang Xing can't hear their conversation, which can be regarded as the most normal thing.

Li Baosheng nodded, "Boss Wang, in addition to this table of guests, there should be two tables of guests, where are they all sitting?" ”

Hearing Li Baosheng's question, Wang Xing stretched out his hand and pointed to the two tables again, "The two poor masters, they are sitting at these two tables." ”

Seeing the two tables that Wang Xing was pointing to, Li Baosheng nodded secretly, turned his head to look at Wang Xing, pointed to a table, and asked with a smile, "Boss Wang, who sat at this table yesterday?" ”

Looking at the position of Li Baosheng's finger, Wang Xing hurriedly replied, "This is the table where Lao Zhang and them are sitting not far behind us." ”

The table Li Baosheng was referring to was actually the closest table to the table where the four strangers were sitting.

The house is rectangular, long from the entrance door to the innermost part, and a piece is separated at the back, which is used as the back kitchen and counter.

After separation, the front is basically square.

The place where the four strangers sat was on the corner to the left of the entrance door, and the counter was on the innermost corner on the right, so the distance between the two was the farthest.

The closest table to the four strangers is the one in the row on the left.

The store is not very large, and there are four tables, so if there are too many people, the two chairs next to each other on the left can be touched if you are not careful, so you can imagine how close the two tables are.

Looking at the two tables not far apart, Huang Hanming also suddenly reacted, turned his head to look at Wang Xing suddenly, and asked urgently, "Boss Wang, can you tell us where Lao Zhang's home is, we want to ask?" ”

Hearing Huang Hanming's question, Wang Xing was about to answer, but suddenly laughed, "Two poor masters, do you want to go to Lao Zhang?" ”

Li Baosheng nodded, and did not hide it, "Yes, we want to ask him to see if he heard what the person at this table said?" ”

Wang Xing shook his head, "No need to go!" ”

Hearing Wang Xing's answer, Li Baosheng was taken aback and hurriedly asked, "Boss Wang, what's wrong, is Lao Zhang having an accident?" ”

Hearing this, Wang Xing hurriedly waved his hand, "How is this possible, they were still drinking here last night, how can there be any accidents today?" ”

Speaking of this, Wang Xing's tone paused, and then he said with a smile, "Two poor masters, I mean that when Lao Zhang came here to eat yesterday, he didn't settle the account, so he already said it yesterday, and he will come to settle the bill at noon today."

Two poor masters, you just need to wait here for a while, I think Lao Zhang should come, right? ”

Hearing that this was the case, Li Baosheng breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile, "Boss Wang, can you finish the words at one time, I thought Lao Zhang had some accident?" ”

Wang Xing shook his head, "Two poor masters, this sentence can only be understood by the people in your yamen, how can other people think wrong?" ”

Li Baosheng smiled bitterly and nodded, "It seems that we are a little suspicious!" ”

Huang Hanming turned his head to look out of the door, and suddenly his heart moved, and he hurriedly asked, "Boss Wang, after these four strangers finished eating, when they left, did you pay attention to which direction they went?" ”

Hearing Huang Hanming's question, Wang Xing was stunned for a moment, then stretched out his hand and pointed to the left side of the door, and said with a smile, "After a few of them finished eating, they went out in that direction." ”

Speaking of this, Wang Xing's tone paused, but then, he didn't wait for Huang Hanming to answer his words, so he continued to speak to himself.

"Poor master, although the villains don't know where they are, I'm sure they must not be from this town, and it's so late, so maybe they went to the front to stay in the store?"

"Staying in a hotel?"

Huang Hanming turned his head to look at Wang Xing, "Boss Wang, is there an inn near here?" ”

Wang Xing nodded, "Of course there is, walk forward along this road, about 100 steps or so, there is a Zhendong Inn."

If there are no accidents, after they leave here, they should go to the Zhendong Inn to stay. ”

Hearing Wang Xing's words, Li Baosheng frowned and asked suspiciously, "Boss Wang, did you say that you were going to the store when they were eating?" ”

Wang Xing smiled bitterly and shook his head, "Poor master, their table is the farthest away from the villain's counter, even if they say it, the villain can't hear it?" ”

Li Baosheng frowned, "Then how do you say that they went to stay in the hotel?" ”

Wang Xing smiled bitterly, "Guess, it was already so late, if they didn't go to the hotel, would they have to spend the night outside?" ”

Hearing this, Huang Hanming suddenly lowered his voice and said, "Li Baosheng, maybe there is really such a possibility, at night, the weather outside is really a little cold." ”
