Chapter five hundred and forty-three deep sea visitors
"Tell me, how many people are there in your black shop?" Gu Yue asked directly.
"No... no more!" the waiter replied while trembling, "There are only three of us in this inn, and I was forced by the two of them!"
Gu Yue naturally didn't believe it, and was about to ask in detail when suddenly there was a scream, which sounded like a woman's voice. Gu Yue glanced at the cook and said, "It's downstairs!" Just as he was about to go downstairs, he confessed again. One sentence, "Take Shen Ying with you."
After saying that, he took the waiter downstairs and saw that a guest room downstairs was open, and there was a girl sitting on the floor, looking in the direction of the room with a frightened face. When she saw him coming, she called out again and crawled Shrinking back, "No... don't kill me!"
Gu Yue ignored her and went straight into the room to take a look, only to find that the bed was covered in blood. An old man was lying on it, lifeless, with stab wounds all over his body. There was also an opened package scattered on the ground.
He instantly understood what the two men with knives were doing downstairs. He raised his hand and threw the waiter in his hand, "You did it!"
"No...it's them! They killed her...I just stunned her, it has nothing to do with me!" The waiter in the shop argued quickly. Lone Yue didn't bother to listen anymore, she just knocked the person unconscious, and then looked at the person on the ground. A girl.
She seemed to be frightened, and her eyes looking at Gu Yue became more and more guarded and frightened. It was not until the cook came in with Shen Ying that she seemed to react. Maybe because of the same sex, she turned in the direction of Shen Ying He crawled over and grabbed the corner of her clothes tightly, his face still looking frightened.
"Huh?" Shen Ying was stunned for a moment.
"What's going on?" Yi Qing asked.
"Someone has been killed." Gu Yue replied and glanced at the woman on the ground, "She should know the people in this house, let's go out first!"
Yi Qing nodded, obviously smelling the strong smell of blood in the room. He glanced at the girl who was still holding Shen Ying tightly, and explained smoothly, "We are also guests staying here, and we will not harm you."
The girl was stunned for a moment, then regained some sense, and followed them out with a look of fear still on her face.
Several people sat down directly on the chairs in the courtyard. The woman clutched the teacup in front of her tightly and finally recovered, but her hands kept trembling. She seemed to be very frightened. After a while, she looked gratefully. Several people glanced at each other and said, "Thank you...everyone for helping me!" She also understood at this moment that the other party was not a cup person, and she escaped.
"It doesn't matter, it's just a little effort." Gu Yue frowned. She thought it was novel at first, but now she felt a little heavier after losing her life. "The girl is also a guest here."
"Yes..." She nodded, took a sip of tea that was almost gone, and then explained, "I am originally from Nancheng, and I came here with Granny Wang from the same village to find relatives. I didn't know until I came here. My relatives had already moved away, and I wanted to stay here for one night before heading back. Unexpectedly, I only got up in the middle of the night, and Granny Wang..." She shed tears as she spoke.
Gu Yue's face darkened, she didn't expect that this black shop specializes in trapping outsiders.
"Then...the perpetrators..." The girl suddenly thought of something and her body trembled again.
"Don't worry." Gu Yue replied, "They won't wake up until dawn. The waiter said there are only three people in the store, so there shouldn't be any accomplices."
She breathed a sigh of relief, turned her head and glanced in the direction of the room, then immediately turned back in fear, and said with some hesitation, "This is a murder case, are your benefactors planning to report it to the police?"
"Report to the police?" Gu Yue was stunned, and then she remembered that if something like this happened in this world, the police would be called. "You are right, we do need to report to the police. It's just that we are not familiar with this place, so we don't know where to report it. Place."
"Of course I will report it to the City Lord's Mansion." The girl looked at him with some surprise, as if she was surprised that he didn't know such a simple thing. She stood up and pointed to the east direction and said, "The City Lord's Mansion is in the east of the city. Now There is no curfew in the city yet, so we have to notify it as soon as possible."
Gu Yue thought for a while, then stood up and said, "I'll go alone." Then she turned back to look at the cook and said, "You take good care of Shen Ying."
"Yeah." The cook nodded.
Then he turned around and walked out.
The girl was stunned for a moment and looked back and forth at the three of them. Wasn't she taking a fancy to the fainted gangsters? Why was she taking a fancy to this girl?
***
After Niu's father left, he didn't come back for two hours. Shen Ying got hungry after waiting. The cook was bored and turned to the kitchen to make a midnight snack.
For a moment, only Shen Ying and the surviving girl were left in the yard. The yard suddenly became quiet, and the only sounds in the yard were the sound of someone chewing fruit and the occasional sound of cooking from the kitchen.
"Want to eat?" Shen Ying handed over a piece of fruit.
The girl was stunned for a moment, hesitated, and then took it, "Thank you, girl." I don't know if it was because she was frightened, but her eyes still had a hint of panic. She thought of something before tentatively asking, "I don't know, girl, what do you call me?" ?”
"Shen Ying."
"It turns out to be Miss Shen, my name is Fang Fang."
"Um."
"I wonder why Miss Shen and the other three came to Wuling City?"
"I don't know."
"Ah?" Fang Fang was stunned. What do you mean you don't know? She was stunned for a moment and didn't care. She added a few words casually. Seeing that she was only concentrating on chewing the fruit, she didn't want to ask any more questions. The place suddenly became cold. She came down. She suddenly felt uneasy and thought for a while before saying, "It's cold tonight, how about... I make a pot of tea."
"Okay." Shen Ying nodded.
Then she got up and walked to the front yard.
For a while, Shen Ying was the only one left in Ruoda's courtyard. The cook's late-night snack was not ready yet, so she was a little bored waiting. In addition, the city was built near a river and connected to the sea. The other side of the courtyard It's just a river scene. From time to time, a gust of river wind will blow, and there will be a faint faint whisper, as if someone is singing in a low voice.
Shen Ying was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously looked back. She saw a figure on the rocks by the river. It was a man with long dark green hair. He looked very charming. His upper body was naked, but his lower body was naked. With a huge fish tail, he was sitting cross-legged on a stone by the river, singing softly and smiling charmingly at her.
Shen Ying only glanced at it, then turned back and continued to eat the fruit.
The man was stunned for a moment, as if he was a little surprised by her reaction. Then he opened his mouth again and sang louder than before. The thin singing voice went straight into the heart like an ecstasy, making people lose their mind.
Shen Ying was stunned, looked back at him again, and then continued to eat the fruit.
