This is also the reason why he dares to open the door of the inn. Even though the inn looks empty, in fact, the guards are hidden everywhere.
However, just in case, especially if there was a child among the distinguished guests, the shopkeeper suggested letting them leave.
"The number of people who have had troubles in the city has now exceeded this number [the shopkeeper pointed three fingers], and I don't hide it from the distinguished guests. After the waiter in our inn happened, the other waiters and accountants in the inn no longer dared to
Anyone who continues to do so will go home.
The reason why the little one and the little nephew are still here is because they were requested by the government to use us as bait to see if the murderer can be found."
Qibaoer: "???"
Qi Kang'an: "!!!"
twelve:"……"
Fang Qi: "∧·∧·∧"
How dare you use yourselves as bait and let them into the inn?
Do you want to use them as bait and gather a few more heads to attract the murderous maniac more?
Four faces that looked more sinister than the last glared at him. The shopkeeper broke into a cold sweat and hurriedly explained: "Don't worry, if you are staying at the inn, our inn not only has guards, but our master also knows about the affairs of Xiangzhou County."
, sent several experts over to assist the government, and now they are also in the inn, so there is absolutely no problem with their safety."
He just saw that there was a child among the four of them, so he suggested that the distinguished guest should leave if it was not necessary. After all, it is better to be on the safe side than not on the road at all.
The four people's eyes were still unkind, but at least they didn't look at the shopkeeper Ling Chi anymore.
Qi Kang'an glanced at his daughter and said, "Lead the way."
This means you must stay.
As the innkeeper, he naturally has no reason to push the money out. Anyway, there are experts in charge of their inn.
If these few people weren't distinguished guests, he wouldn't even need to remind them. After all, there would probably be nothing wrong with them.
So the shopkeeper immediately led the four people to the guest room happily. Since the incident in the county town, there have been fewer and fewer guests, especially in the past few days, there has not been a single guest. Now to them, no matter how small the mosquito is, it is
Meat.
Although there are few people in the inn, well, it should be said that there are few people visible, the service is still the same.
As soon as the four people settled down, the shopkeeper and the waiter knocked on their door one by one. There were already a row of buckets filled with hot water outside the door. The shopkeeper and the waiter were both very strong, so they couldn't.
Then I filled the bathtub in the house with two-thirds of the hot water.
After they had taken a comfortable hot bath, the door was knocked, and the two of them brought dinner to them.
Deyuan Inn is a little bit special than other inns. If you stay in a superior room here, three meals a day are free, and they are very rich. There are four dishes and one soup, including fish and meat. However, the price of the room is a bit expensive.
The wool comes from the sheep.
However, this method of Deyuan Inn is quite popular here. Firstly, it is novel. Secondly, the guests who can afford a room are not short of money in their pockets. On the contrary, they are all pretentious people who feel that they need to stay in an inn.
Living in a house is a status symbol and a reflection of status. Three meals a day are free, which actually makes them feel like they are taking advantage.
Let’s not talk about others, just Qi Bao’er and the four of them are eating free dinner. It’s weird to see the stuffed pork belly, chicken soup, fried fish and fried vegetables on the table.
I think the price of the room is quite high.
After the meal, Xiangzhou County Magistrate had nothing to go shopping. Instead, the quiet streets after nightfall had an eerie feeling, and the four of them had no intention of going out.
Nowadays in Xiangzhou County, there is no sound of watchman at night. No matter how much money you pay, no one dares to do this job again, because after the accident of You family, the second person who got into trouble was the watchman at night.
Qi Kang'an opened a crack in the window and looked out, muttering: "Bao, do you think that person will really commit another murder at night?"
It’s past midnight and it hasn’t appeared yet?
Qi Bao'er dragged a chair over and stood up, also leaning his head over. Qi Kang'an kindly made room for her, and they became father and daughter, standing up and down, with their eyes staring at the crack of the window.
"I feel so, Dad, think about it, this man first killed the Youfu family, then came out at night to kill one person, and then he even dared to come out during the day.
This is just like being addicted. At first, it may be due to enmity against Youfu or other reasons, but then, it cannot be due to enmity against everyone in the county.
After that, he would come out at night, even to watch the shift.
After that, going out at night won’t be fun anymore, and I’ll have to commit crimes if I can’t control myself during the day.”
Qi Kang'an looked at his daughter strangely, "Bao, how are you sure it was done by one person? Couldn't it be a group of people who did it?"
Qi Baoer: "Of course it could be a group of people."
She suspected that it was Piao who did it at first, but she didn't feel Piao's presence after entering the city, so she ruled out this.
If it was really floating, she could still be sure.
As for humans, it’s hard to say.
Qi Kang'an said oh and continued to look outside. Such a look almost sent him away.
Just as he turned around to talk to his daughter, a big, headless guy stood at the door of the inn.
Wearing a suit of armor and holding a long-handled giant axe, he was headless but still about two meters tall. He was really like a hill. The blood on his neck that was missing his head was scary to look at.
"Niangle~"
This shout was not from Qi Kangan, but from a shopkeeper on the second floor who was also hiding in the room.
Following the screams, there was the sound of crackling porcelain tables and chairs falling to the ground from the second floor.
Apparently the shopkeeper was frightened.
Such a thing still appeared suddenly and violently. It was obviously an iron armor that shone coldly in the moonlight, but there was no sound at all.
Not to mention being from the shopkeeper, he was already in contact with something evil, and Qi Kang'an, who was already quite brave, was shocked.
Fortunately, he was able to hold his own, but his face turned ugly. At least he didn't make a big fuss like the shopkeeper downstairs, and he could still keep his eyes open and stare at the big guy at the door of the inn.
But just staring like this, Qi Kang'an felt his eyes suddenly flicker, and the big headless guy disappeared right under his nose.
Oh...just disappeared without a trace?
At least there is a sound when you move around, right?
"Sure." Qi Baoer's expression changed, he jumped off the chair and rushed out of the house.
Qi Kang'an also reacted, drew out his flat-headed knife and hurriedly chased after him.
By the time he chased him to the stairwell on the second floor, the noisy sound of weapons clashing could already be heard from the room on the right where the shopkeeper was hiding.
With a "bang", the wooden wall broke open, and a man in black fell out following the broken wood. The man in black fell to the ground and spurted out a mouthful of blood, and then became silent.
There was another bang, the door was opened, and another man in black was beaten out. This one didn't even spurt blood. After falling to the ground, he was so paralyzed that he didn't know whether to live or die.
Just as Qi Kangan rushed towards the house from the stairs, one after another men in black were beaten out of the house. Some could not move but could still moan, and some were just like the first and second ones.
Life is death.
When Qi Kang'an rushed to the door with a big hole, he happened to face a familiar figure flying towards him. Qi Kang'an instinctively reached out to catch it.
