Chapter 418: Fluent answers! Real speculation!

"And my arrangements in other places are about to take effect. Beichen has backup, so why don't I? Sooner or later they will leave."

"As soon as they leave, we will go back immediately. In this case, I believe... even Beichen would never guess that we would hide in the inn that they have searched many times."

"This is called...the blind spot of vision!"

Just as Shen Lian and Tianji were yawning in the corner outside the inn, a new round of searches had already begun inside the inn.

The guards boarded the inn one by one, then went to each room and knocked hard on the door.

People kept being woken up from their deep sleep.

Some of these people were full of complaints, and some were still ignorant. But when they opened the door and saw the fierce guards standing outside, they immediately shrank their necks and were too frightened to speak any more.

"come out!"

The guards outside the door drank directly at them.

These people walked out of the room with confusion and confusion.

As soon as they went out, the guards rushed in and searched their room!

Whether it was the cabinets, the underside of the couch, or even the floor, they were all raised to see if there was anything hidden.

“And the baggage they brought with them was searched inch by inch.

The carefulness of their search simply refreshed these people's understanding of the guards of the City Lord's Mansion.

Just like that, rooms were searched one after another.

Soon, it was Shen Lian's turn.

Bang bang!

There was a loud knock on the door.

But after a while, no sound came from the room.

The guard who knocked on the door suddenly frowned.

He waved directly, called two people over, and then pointed to the closed door in front of him.

"There seems to be no one."

he said softly.

When the two people heard this, their expressions changed.

They immediately tightened their grip on their weapons: "Bash the door!"

The man nodded, and I grabbed the hilt of the knife and rushed forward.

Crunch——

But at this moment, a creaking sound was heard, and under the nervous gaze of the three guards, the closed door was opened.

A sleepy man walked out, rubbing his eyes.

"Guan Ye? What happened again?"

These three people, you look at me, I look at you.

Finally, the two people who were called all looked at the person who knocked on the door in the first place.

The man coughed, a little embarrassed, then looked at the man opposite angrily and asked: "I just knocked on the door, why was there no movement?"

The man said: "Hey, I'm sleeping soundly."

"As traveling merchants, we travel around every day and often sleep on the streets. However, we also need enough rest, otherwise we will have difficulty traveling the next day, so we have developed the habit of sleeping on our heads and sleeping like dead pigs.

I’m used to it, I really didn’t hear it just now.”

He looked at the officer and said with a smile: "Master, we meet again. Didn't we just finish the inspection last night? Why are you here again today?"

The guard looked at this man, and he looked at him carefully.

He really had an impression of this person.

A very talkative and eloquent businessman.

And this person looks okay, so he still has memory.

At this time, the appearance of the person in front of him was exactly the same as the appearance in his memory, there was no difference.

So he didn't care much.

He looked at the man opposite Shen Lian who looked exactly the same as Shen Lian and said, "Why are you asking so many questions? Knowing too much is not good for you."

"Get out of the way, I want to search your room."

The man who looked the same as Shen Lian smiled and said: "It's easy to talk, I understand that the City Lord's Mansion is doing things, and I will never stand in the way."

"In our line of work, I don't know anything else, but being harmonious and making money is definitely the most important thing."

As he spoke, he got out of the way.

The guard entered his room directly.

The guard looked around the room and said, "It's quite clean."

"That's right, sir, don't look at me traveling around a lot, but I'm clean, that's what I've always been -"

"Shut up!"

The guard couldn't stand it anymore: "If I don't ask you anything, just shut up. How can you be so rude and talkative?"

This Shen Lian chuckled and said a little sheepishly: "I am used to discussing business with people, and I will talk too much if I am not careful. Don't be offended, sir."

The guard snorted: "Stop talking."

As he spoke, the guard conducted a very detailed search.

The cabinets, floors, and walls were all checked.

Then the guard walked to the window, opened it, looked outside, and found that it was right on the roadside.

The guard said: "Jump down from here and you can leave secretly."

This Shen Lian laughed again and said: "You are talking about passing away secretly, right? It is so high. If I jump down, I will probably pass away secretly. My family will definitely not know."

The guards were all amused by him: "Shut up, I'll just tell you."

After being interrupted by this "Shen Lian", the thoughts that the guards of the City Lord's Mansion had just dispersed disappeared silently.

He glanced outside again, then withdrew his gaze and continued to search other places.

Seeing this, Shen Lian breathed a sigh of relief.

In just an instant, there was sweat on his forehead.

When the guard wasn't paying attention, he quickly wiped the sweat from his forehead to avoid being suspected by the guard.

The guards searched carefully and even knocked on every floor.

Seeing this, Shen Lian said with a smile: "You don't think I can dig a tunnel, do you? This is the territory of the inn, and I still live on the second floor, and I can only stay for two days. During these two days,

Why can’t I dig a tunnel?”

"Of course, if I really dig it, I think there is a high probability that I will fall directly to the first floor."

The guard was really helpless.

He said: "Can you shut up and stop being so poor? Why do you talk so much?"

This Shen Lian scratched his head and said with a smile: "I'm sorry, I have an occupational disease. I often sell products to others and I can't stop talking."

The guard didn't think much about it, but he felt that this was the right thing to do.

If Shen Lian didn't say anything, he would doubt the authenticity of this person's identity as a businessman.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The guard knocked on the floor and said: "I don't suspect that you forgot the tunnel, but I wonder if there is a mezzanine below and whether you are hiding something."

Shen Lian looked surprised: "What did I hide? Why didn't I know?"

Guard: "...I didn't say you were really hiding. This wasn't a search."

"Don't talk nonsense. I'm not targeting you. This is what the higher-ups require. Every room must be searched like this, dig deep and dig deep!"

Shen Lian's eyes flashed and his eyes narrowed slightly.

He said: "Then you can check it as you like. I am upright and not afraid of my shadow being distorted!"

Seeing Shen Lian not panicking at all, the guard was convinced.

He knocked briefly to make sure there was no mezzanine or anything like that, and then began to search Shen Lian's baggage.

And the result was naturally no surprise.

Shen Lian had long thought that someone would come to search his room, so he had hidden those important books and paintings elsewhere.

This guard is destined to find nothing.

After checking how long it took to burn a stick of incense, the guard wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "Okay, there's no problem."

He looked at Shen Lian and said, "But even so, you haven't completely ruled out suspicion, so if you don't want anything to happen, just stay in the room and don't go anywhere."

"Otherwise, if you are caught, no one can save you."

Shen Lian nodded quickly: "Yes, sir, don't worry, I promise to be obedient."

"Then Sir..."

Shen Lian rubbed his hands and said, "I wonder how long our situation will last?"

"As a businessman, I can't leave. I'm just sitting on my hands, and I have to deliver goods. If I'm late for one day, I'll have to pay a lot of money."

The guard said: "Don't ask me, I don't know if you ask me."

"I haven't rested for several days, and I also want to know when it will end."

"Anyway...don't even think about it these days. Originally it was maybe two or three days, but now it seems that if we don't catch those thieves, it won't be five or six days."

When Shen Lian heard this, his eyes flashed and he said angrily: "Who are those thieves? Why are they so hateful!"

The guard shrugged his shoulders: "Okay, stop complaining, just hope those thieves are caught soon. Remember, don't go out. Whoever goes out now will be a suspect!"

After saying that, the guard left.

Shen Lian sent the guard away with a smile on his face, and then closed the door.

And the moment he closed the door, the smile on his face disappeared without a trace.

He frowned and quickly walked to the window.

He opened the window a little and looked outside.

Then I saw someone watching under the window.

Moreover, there are people looking out of the windows from time to time.

The man quickly closed the window.

His expression was a little solemn: "Master, where are you now?"

"Has New Fluclight been eliminated?"

"Are you safe?"

There was a look of worry on his face.

But now, he can only sit here and help confuse the guards.

Other than that, I can only hope that the young master will continue to strategize and create miracles.

The search continues.

However, despite the searches by the guards of the City Lord's Mansion, no problem was found.

There is not a single resident in the inn missing.

At the same time, they also searched all the rooms, and found nothing unusual.

The guards walked downstairs one after another and reported the situation to the leader below: "No problem."

"No issues found."

"everything is normal!"

Hearing this, the leader frowned for a moment, then breathed a sigh of relief: "It seems that there is nothing wrong with this inn. In this case, we will be on standby for the time being and no one is allowed to enter or leave."

These people are all guards of the city lord's palace.

Although they didn't know who they were chasing, they knew very well that if the higher-ups mobilized so many troops, the person they were chasing would definitely not be simple.

Maybe Kung Fu is very powerful, or very cruel.

If they were to confront each other, there might be casualties.

Therefore, what the leader hopes most is that the place he is responsible for is not the hiding place of those thieves.

This will ensure his safety.

And now, it seems that is the result.

So he was completely relieved.

As for whether not catching the thief would make the people above him angry, that's none of his business.

The thief is not in the area he is responsible for, so it has nothing to do with him.

He walked out of the inn, yawned, raised his head and glanced at the sky.

The night was still dark at this time, and there was still a while before dawn.

I don’t know if I will have a chance to close my eyes tonight.

"I hope the thief can be found somewhere else and caught so I can sleep well."

He saw a shooting star and couldn't help but make a wish.

He doesn't want to meet those tough thieves, but he hopes others do.

It must be said that people's joys and sorrows are not the same, but their instinct to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages is exactly the same...

But he didn't know that in the corner not far away from him, the thief he hoped that others would meet was looking at him expressionlessly.

Tianji rubbed his eyes and said, "Why did this guy still make a wish to the sky?"

Shen Lian smiled and said: "You are not allowed to have a chance to be romantic?"

Tianji rolled his eyes.

"In more than an hour, it will be daybreak. Once it gets daybreak, it will be very obvious that we are wearing black."

She looked at Shen Lian and asked, "What should we do next?"

"Don't worry."

Shen Lian looked confident that he was in control of everything, and said calmly: "We need to make sure that they have searched the inn first, so that they can rest assured and eliminate the inn completely."

"So, wait a little longer."

"Don't be afraid of waiting for good things."

Tianji pursed her lips: "Aren't you afraid of revealing your secrets?"

She has now determined that Shen Lian asked Si She to leave suddenly before, just to let Si She return.

It seems that Shen Lian had already expected that once Di and the others took action against Xin Yaoguang, the inn might be quickly listed as a key search area by Beichen.

So Shen Lian asked Si She to return with a few secret guards, so that if something like this happened, Si She's disguise ability could bring a few secret guards to disguise Shen Lian and Tianji, thus deceiving them. Those who search.

I have to say that Tianji really admires Shen Lian's foresight.

At least at that time, Tianji had no idea what was happening at this moment.

But Shen Lian had already anticipated everything and made preparations in advance. Tianji couldn't help but accept this.

But she was still a little worried. After all, Shen Lian's personality was not so easy to disguise.

Shen Lian smiled and said: "You have been in contact with Sishe for a long time, right? You still don't know the title of his disguise expert? He just deceived a few people who only had a one-time relationship. As long as you can grasp it, My mouth is the most delicate, so there is absolutely no problem."

Tianji thought about it and realized that was true.

It's not like we get along day and night.

She thought back when she was at the Beidou Club, Tian Quan, whom she had known many times, was replaced by Si She, but she didn't even notice.

These stupid guards will never find out.

"about there!"

At this moment, Shen Lian suddenly spoke.

"What?"

Tianji was startled and still didn't understand what Shen Lian meant.

Suddenly, there was a rapid sound of horse hooves, suddenly far and near.
