Chapter 52
The fourth child patted Xiao Wu on the shoulder and sighed, "Okay, let's just let it go as if no outsiders are involved in today's matter! Don't mention it again in the future!"
After that, she chatted with him in a low voice for a few more words. Chu Wanying was far away from them and couldn't hear clearly. She was about to sneak over and eavesdrop, but unexpectedly the two of them had separated and started searching separately.
Chu Wanying could only continue to pretend to poke here and there, thinking that it would be good if she could actually get something useful.
At this time, the other two people had finished searching and called her, "Xiao Liu, this house has almost been searched. Leave."
Chu Wanying then followed up and searched Dizi No. 3.
Coincidentally, there are no guests staying in this room.
Chu Wanying originally thought that they were searching for anyone alive, in order to eliminate the weeds and leave no survivors.
But looking at the searching methods of these two people, she began to have doubts.
It wasn't until he entered Room No. 4 that his suspicions were confirmed——
The door of Di Zi No. 4 was obviously locked from the inside. The fourth child pushed it several times but received no response. He tilted his head and gestured to Xiao Wu. The latter immediately took out a wire from his arms and fiddled with it a few times.
Insert the steel wire through the crack of the door, pull it gently, and hear the sound of the door latch opening.
The fourth child gave Xiao Wu a thumbs up and pushed the door open first and went in.
The room was different from the previous two. It was much messier, with leftover food on the table and a wooden box in the corner.
The curtains on the bed were half drawn, still revealing the owner's big feet.
Chu Wanying only glanced at it and determined that the person living here was a man.
When she was thinking about whether to save someone, she saw that the two people didn't seem to care about this person at all. They didn't even pay attention to him, and they only focused on looking around for something.
Xiaowu found a stack of banknotes in the man's coat and hurriedly called to them, "Come on, brothers, look what I found!"
As soon as Chu Wanying went over and saw him holding the banknote with a smile, she suddenly realized——
These people have been searching for money!
Xiao Wu counted the banknotes one by one in front of them and said, "It's almost five hundred taels. Each of our three brothers will receive fifty taels. The rest will be given to the boss."
After saying that, he threw fifty taels of silver notes to each of them.
The fourth child took it without hesitation and put it in his arms. Chu Wanying only hesitated for a moment, then immediately took it and imitated his movements and put it in his arms.
She thought that if she refused at this time, her secret would definitely be revealed. She would just find a suitable opportunity to return it to this man in the future.
Chu Wanying collected the banknotes and followed them out of the house.
Just as they were about to turn around and go up to the second floor, unexpectedly, Lao Si and Xiao Wu had no intention of taking any further action, and just stood and chatted in the yard.
She wondered what they meant by this and why they didn't continue searching upstairs. Then Xiao Wu smiled and said, "This time I have money to go to Yanliu Lane and have fun!"
"You are such a stubborn boy! If you have money, you will spend a lot of time and alcohol..."
Perhaps it was a bit silly for her to stand there blankly. The two of them turned to look at her and joked, "Xiao Liu, what are you doing standing there? The boss said we would only search these three rooms."
"
They thought she was standing still waiting to continue searching other rooms, so they explained to her.
"The boss only assigns us to be responsible for the search every time, and leaves other tasks to the second and third sons. You have been running around for a long time, and you haven't done any tasks with the boss for a long time, right? You have even forgotten the rules?
"
It turned out that the big brother who took the lead only arranged this task, and from what I heard, Xiao Liu didn't stay with them all the time.
With this knowledge, Chu Wanying felt more at ease.
Come to think of it, these two people don't know Xiao Liu very well.
But she was still worried in her heart. If the three of them went upstairs and found that shopkeeper Wang of Tianzi No. 1 had long since disappeared, wouldn't it be a conspiracy?
It seems that the best solution now is to leave as soon as possible.
"Xiao Liu! Don't run around. If you let the boss find out, you will inevitably get a slap in the face!" The fourth child saw her actions and hurriedly stopped her.
Chu Wanying retracted her legs and smiled at them.
She wanted to leave secretly without telling them, but she was caught by them before she even took a step forward.
"Okay, the boss and the employer are having a conversation at Dizi No. 1. If you are anxious, you can go to Tianzi No. 2 first and have a look. There is no one in that room." Xiao Wu kindly reminded him.
"Xiaowu! Don't come up with such a bad idea!" the fourth child said in a low voice. He raised his eyes and glanced at Room 1. Seeing that there was still light inside, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Boss's temper has been unstable recently. We
It’s better not to act rashly.”
After saying that, he turned to Chu Wanying and said, "Xiao Liu, we know that you are anxious to make money and marry a wife, so please be patient. When the boss completes the business and the employer has given the money, can he still treat us badly?"
Chu Wanying nodded her head, but as soon as she lowered her head, her thoughts suddenly changed. She hugged her belly and bent down, pretending to have abdominal pain.
Seeing her like this, the other two people just said that she was sick again, and after a few jokes, they asked her to go to the latrine quickly and not to pull down her pants, which would infect them.
Chu Wanying ran to the hut in the backyard. There happened to be a row of walls next to this place, leading directly to the outside.
The wall was about two meters high. With a few kicks, I climbed up to the top of the wall and climbed over.
When Chu Wanying turned to the east gate, she saw a carriage parked quietly aside. When she opened the curtain, she saw Rong Zhan and shopkeeper Wang talking.
She came suddenly, interrupting the conversation between the two of them.
"Who is this?" Shopkeeper Wang looked at her warily.
Chu Wanying didn't reply to him, just looked at Rong Zhan and said, "Have you asked the matter clearly?"
Rong Zhan nodded and stared at her for a long time before looking back and saying, "That's almost it."
Hearing this, he felt a little relieved and said to Shopkeeper Wang, "Without further ado, you take Mrs. Wang and leave first. By the way, do you have anywhere else to go in Yunqing Town?"
Shopkeeper Wang heard that they knew each other from the conversation just now, and immediately put down his guard and replied, "I still have a property in the town. In order to guard against thieves, I never dared to go back. Why do you ask?"
"No, this house has been targeted a long time ago and you can't go back. Why don't you just pick out valuable items and take them with you, and then go to Zhou's mother-in-law's house in the east of the village. There is a small vacant room there. Just go in with your wife.
Just remember, don’t alert others.”
After hearing her arrangement, Shopkeeper Wang thanked her hurriedly, and then asked her, "What about this carriage?"
"The ruts on the carriage are too obvious, making it easy for them to track them. Besides, do you think this carriage can outrun their tall horses?"
Through their conversation, Chu Wanying had guessed that these men in black were the killers hired by the real murderer.
Led by the tall man in black, there were six people in total.
She then said to Rong Zhan, "What do you think about the two of us staying here to deal with the aftermath?"
"good."
After the two got out of the car, she finally told Shopkeeper Wang, "Remember, you must go to Mrs. Zhou's house as soon as possible before dawn. Don't play any tricks and think about escaping. Even if you don't care about yourself, you have to
Be careful about your wife."
As she spoke, her eyes glanced at the woman who was still sleeping unconsciously.
Upon hearing her words, Shopkeeper Wang frowned and sighed repeatedly, "How dare I! What else can I do now besides trusting you..."
Rong Zhan, who was standing behind her, glanced at the sky and reminded, "It's almost dawn."
——————
The two entered through the east gate. On the way, Chu Wanying told Rong Zhan intermittently what had just happened.
When the girl spoke, the man said nothing. When she finished speaking, he opened his mouth and said, "You are too bold. What if they find out?"
He already regretted leaving the girl alone in the backyard, but now after hearing what she said, he felt even more scared.
Jun's eyebrows were frowned tightly, and his face was as gloomy as Yama. Seeing his appearance, Chu Wanying thought he was feeling unwell and asked quickly, "Have you just inhaled some medicine? Are you feeling unwell?"
The man shook his head and said, "It's okay. You can't act so recklessly next time."
Chu Wanying waved her hands, looking indifferent, "Don't worry! I'm more afraid of death than anyone else. I won't take action if I'm not completely sure!"
She was telling the truth. All kinds of experiences in her previous life had made her understand the value of life, so she would never take risks.
Thinking of something, she added, "I think these men in black have their own agenda, and they don't really trust this employer."
Otherwise, how could they give up setting fire just because of her interruption.
This just shows the caution of the big brother who took the lead. He was afraid that the employer did not explain the situation in advance and concealed other obstacles, so he went to negotiate with him and planned to increase the price.
She told Rong Zhan all her guesses, and the latter nodded, "What you said makes sense. Besides, by arranging this group of men in black, this person can also show that his own abilities are not enough to accomplish the task. This can be regarded as
This confirms our last inference.”
At this point, Chu Wanying also remembered the inference she made with the man when she found the Xu family's relics last time.
The murderer left the Xu family's belongings before they were destroyed.
At that time, they guessed that there must be a reason for this person to be separated.
Now that I think about it carefully, the most likely thing is——
"Is this person not in good health?" Chu Wanying's words were so shocking that the man was immediately startled.
Speaking of poor health, a pale and handsome face suddenly appeared in his mind. He was in poor health and had to sit in a wheelchair all year round...
Could it be him?
No, impossible!
He got rid of the unrealistic thoughts in his mind, that man was still in the capital at the moment, how could he appear here.
What's more, he has always been well-known throughout Dayan for his integrity. How could he do such a thing when he has no enmity with the Rong family?
But the more Rong Zhan thought like this, the more uneasy he became.
If he is really that person, how can he fight against him with his ability?
How is this different from hitting an egg against a stone?
Chu Wanying didn't know that the man's mind had already changed thousands of times. Seeing that he was silent, she thought he was thinking of some plan.
