Three updates today, the first update is here (just save it, just click it.)
##
When it was dark, Liu Dacheng walked into the inn. The shopkeeper was clicking his abacus beads on the counter, calculating the day's income; the three waiters were wiping the tables and stools in the front hall, and it seemed that they were about to close.
Seeing Liu Dacheng coming in, a waiter hurriedly came up to him and said, "Sir, would you like to stay in a hotel or eat?"
Liu Dacheng said: "Little brother, I'm here to find someone."
The guy asked: "Who are you looking for? What room number do you live in?"
Liu Dacheng said: "I don't know the room number. His name is Qin Dalang, a tailor from Wuhu."
The clerk looked Liu Dacheng up and down and said, "I can't tell. You seem to be on your own and you know this official Qin. Uncle Qin lives in Room No. 4, Di Zi. It's a coincidence that you came here."
, He usually doesn’t come home until midnight, but today he happened to be in the room."
Liu Dacheng thought: Qin Dalang must be hungover from the brothel every day. The children in this shop all know that he is so good at it. This inn is in Beicheng, and Beicheng is where the fireworks and brothels gather. It is a place the size of a bullet. Enter the brothel piaoji.
How can you hide something like this from others?
"What room number does he live in? I'll go find him myself." Liu Dacheng stepped inside.
The waiter in the shop stopped him in a hurry and said: "Hey, wait, wait a minute, who told you that you can go in? Uncle Qin is waiting for guests. He ordered us to come down and no one is allowed to disturb us. Just now, my third brother was scolded for bringing a pot of water."
The dog's bloody head came out. It's a coincidence that you came here, but you don't have to rush."
Liu Dacheng was filled with doubts. Qin Dalang had no relatives in Luzhou City. Who would come to visit him? If no one came in to disturb him, what kind of distinguished guest was this? What kind of important things were they talking about?
"Little brother, may I ask when did that guest come? When did he leave? Otherwise, I can just sit in the lobby and wait for him."
"That can't be done. We are about to close now. Who will wait for you? If you go out to meet guests later, you can only go out through the back door. There is an old Wangtou at the back door who is keeping watch. Why don't you go to the back door?
Stay there, but Lao Wangtou has a weird temper, and he may not let you enter the house. It is not appropriate to stand in the dark and feed mosquitoes in this dark sky."
Liu Dacheng lowered his head and thought for a while and said: "Otherwise, you can book me a room next to the room with the address number 4, and I will wait in the next room. I will know as soon as the guest leaves, and there is no need to work."
Your little brothers are here to serve you."
The waiter said: "This is a way, there are vacancies, but let's get to the end of the conversation, it doesn't matter if it's an hour or a day, the price is eighty cents, no less."
Liu Dacheng didn't answer. He reached out and took out eighty yuan and handed it to the clerk. The clerk took the money and came to the counter. The shopkeeper praised him for his business skills and handed him a key.
he.
"Room No. 6, located next to me, please..." The waiter was praised by the boss and was in a happy mood. He spoke with a pleasant ending.
The two of them entered the second floor one after another. When they passed the door of Room No. 4, Liu Dacheng turned around and looked. There was light coming from the crack in the door. It seemed that there was really someone inside.
After the waiter left, Liu Dacheng bolted the door tightly and leaned against the board wall near Room 4 to listen carefully. The board wall was not thick. To make matters worse, the store owner only separated it with two layers of wood to increase the number of rooms and make money. But even so
, the sound is also blurry, and it’s really hard to hear clearly.
Liu Dacheng searched the room and found a thin book. He rolled it into a trumpet shape and stuck it on the wall. After putting his ears close to it, he could hear it a little more clearly. The voices of the two people inside were not loud, but Liu Dacheng suddenly heard it.
I heard Qin Dalang's voice.
But Qin Dalang said: "The villain... tried his best... Su Ji... was strict... the power of nine cows and two tigers... the style... the color."
The intermittent sound can sometimes be heard clearly, and sometimes it can be indistinct.
The other voice was slightly louder and could be heard more clearly. He said: "Don't try to play tricks. The internal information and clothing styles of Su Ji that I provided last time were completely perfunctory. I almost couldn't get off the stage, so I asked someone to give it to you."
Lesson, if you don’t try your best, it won’t be as simple as slapping you on the ear. I will send someone to castrate you, strip you naked and throw you on the street. Scarface Heiqi has more than a dozen lives under his command, and I don’t care about one more.”
Qin Dalang said: "We must try our best... don't dare to deceive Master Hei Qi."
There was a buzz in Liu Dacheng's mind. It was a foregone conclusion that Qin Dalang was the mole. The bruises on his face a few days ago had been lied to him by a toothache. At that time, he felt something was wrong, but it turned out that he was not doing enough to provide inside information.
, was given a lesson by the people in the room. It seemed that Qin Dalang was being coerced.
The two people in the room kept talking to each other, Qin Dalang softly apologized and laughed, but the man who called himself Scarface Heiqi pressed hard and kept threatening and intimidating; the two of them were involved in all aspects of Su Ji's internal affairs,
Qin Dalang knew everything he wanted to say, and it was obvious that he had gained a lot from his busy work these days.
The man in the room seemed to have a much softer tone. He said a few words of comfort, and then heard the sound of copper coins. It seemed that the man gave some more money to Qin Dalang. It seemed that Qin Dalang was living a decadent life every night.
The ultimate life is really like drinking wine now and getting drunk the next, breaking jars and throwing them down.
Liu Dacheng hated Qin Dalang for not informing the chief shopkeeper about the matter, but was coerced by others into becoming Su Ji's internal spy. He mourned his misfortune, but was angry that he would not fight.
The matter has reached this point, and Qin Dalang cannot be brought back. At this time, he needs to clear up the relationship as soon as possible, and quickly inform shopkeeper Zhao Da of what he heard today, and let him handle it.
Thinking of this, Liu Dacheng didn't want to listen carefully, and planned to go back and report immediately. Just as he gently opened the door, he heard the door next door click, and a person stepped out; the lights on the porch were dim, and Liu Dacheng looked vaguely through the crack in the door.
The man was tall, and a long scar on half of his face still looked shocking under the dim lantern. The man looked around, then walked downstairs.
The footsteps gradually faded away, and Qin Dalang's low curses came from the next door. After a while, the door was bolted tightly, and there was no sound everywhere.
Liu Dacheng tiptoed downstairs and walked towards the back door. Suddenly he thought of something and walked quickly to the front hall. The night clerk was the same guy who had just received Liu Dacheng. He was sitting boredly in the front hall humming a tune.
Son, when he saw Liu Dacheng, he stood up and pointed behind him: "Take the back door, the front door is closed."
Liu Dacheng took out twenty coins from his arms and offered it to him: "Brother, please don't tell the officials of Qin that I am coming to visit him today. I don't want to see him anymore."
The guy frowned and said, "Is this...?"
Liu Dacheng thrust the copper coins into his hand and said, "Don't ask any questions. This matter is related to government errands. Telling it out may not be helpful to your inn."
The clerk was startled, suddenly realized, stuck out his tongue and said: "Don't worry, sir, the government is handling the case, right?"
Liu Dacheng said: "Tell you shopkeepers and those guys, don't talk too much, and don't act strange to them. It's just business as usual. Otherwise, don't blame me for not warning you if disaster strikes."
The waiter stuck out his tongue and handed the copper coin back without daring to take it. Liu Dacheng said, "Save it for tea and snacks. Don't forget what I said."
After saying that, he turned around and hurried away through the back door.
The clerk put the twenty cents into his pocket and thought to himself: "These days, government affairs are all done secretly and furtively. I don't know what crime Mr. Qin has committed. No wonder he is so rich and spends all his time living and drinking. Look,
He doesn't look like someone who takes advantage of big money. He must have stolen other people's money. He has nothing to do with it, so it's better to keep his mouth shut.dd
