032 Calm down(1/2)

At this time of year, the leaves of the giant sycamore trees are fiery red, and the breeze blows like a sea of ​​fire, which is magnificent.

past.

Such a view is worth stopping to take in, but the chaos that has spread to the inner city for the rest of the month has long left no one with time to pay attention to the beautiful scenery in front of them.

The fiery red leaves make people feel even more anxious.

Just like the people outside the inn at this time.

"Shopkeeper Xue's disappearance, what does it have to do with us?"

"Yes! Besides, he just disappeared and there is no evidence to prove that he is dead. What if he went out for fun and forgot to come back?"

"I refuse to accept that we will be sent back just because of a suspicious word!"

"That's right, that's right!"

"..."

The crowd's noise and resistance not only attracted the attention of nearby passers-by, but also made it increasingly difficult for the patrol team to suppress them.

"What are you doing!"

Leader Ren raised his voice and shouted:

"You want to rebel, don't you?"

He separated from the patrol and strode forward, took out the heavy black iron mace from his waist and threw it at the crowd without any scruples, shouting angrily:

"Be honest, anyone who wants to die will come over here!"

The heavy mace fell on his body, and his skin and flesh were immediately torn apart. For a moment, everyone screamed, and he was forced to retreat to a corner.

Everyone was as silent as a cicada.

But no one dared to really resist.

In Huojiabao, the patrol team affiliated with the Huo family is the largest law enforcement agency. In the inner city, several major forces must also be honest.

What's more, the one who did it was a seventh-grade master.

"Everyone, stand still for me!"

Leader Ren's eyes widened, unable to conceal his anger.

He has been friends with Shopkeeper Xue for decades, and there is no problem in saying that they are life-and-death friends. How could he not be angry if his friend disappeared for no reason?

Although he has been missing for several days, judging from the time, it is most likely the second day after Dongcheng was born.

People of the day…

Everyone is suspected!

This time is different from what happened to Xiao Er Dongcheng. He is really angry and vows to find the murderer and avenge his friend.

As for people still alive?

This possibility is extremely slim!

Even if shopkeeper Xue gives up the inn business, can he still not deal with his son's death?

"Ren Tou." In the crowd, a person came closer and quietly handed over a money bag:

"I'm in charge of raising the white-maned horses of the Kane family in the inner city and the outer city. I've been staying at the inn for a few days due to business, and I've never gone out randomly."

"I hope my boss will see clearly."

"It's from the Kane family." Leader Ren's expression changed slightly. He looked at the money bag in front of him, took a deep breath, and put it into his arms:

"I know, let's go!"

It is natural to avenge your friends, but you cannot add yourself to it.

"Yes, yes." The other party nodded repeatedly, bowed his body and stepped back:

"If Ren Tou has time to go to the outer city, I will treat him well. I... take my leave first. I will leave first."

"Sir." Two more people came out and handed over the money bag:

"We are from the Qian family. We just checked into the inn a few days ago and we have always been honest."

"The Qian family." Leader Ren's eyes flickered. He didn't accept the money this time and waved his hand directly:

"let's go!"

"Yes, yes, thank you very much, Ren!"

Next, several more people walked out. They were either related to several big families in the inner city or were dependents of big forces in the outer city.

Without exception, they were all accommodated.

Zhou Jia pursed his lips. He was also a member of the Fish and Dragon Society, but as the deputy director of the mine, he might not have that much dignity.

and……

The way Leader Ren looked over from time to time, he obviously still remembered the 'suspect' he had been appointed by Shopkeeper Xue.

Not to mention others.

The Jiao sisters were close to Sister Cao, their faces were pale and their bodies were tense. They came from the barony and had no relatives here.

Sister Cao, neither can she.

"Third Elder!"

At this moment, Zhou Jia's eyes lit up, he hurriedly took two steps forward and shouted to a passing carriage:

"Zhou Jia of the Fish and Dragon Society has met the third elder!"

"Well..." The curtain of the carriage that was about to be lowered opened again, revealing a charming and charming face, and a pair of eyes that seemed to be mixed with water, crystal clear:

"Zhou Jia?"

"Exactly." Zhou Jia nodded heavily.

When he saw the carriage just now, he felt something familiar. When Mrs. Wang heard the movement and opened the curtain, she was even more convinced that the carriage was a rare thing here.

Now he said:

"My subordinate was recommended by Deacon Wei and is now the deputy director of the mine."

"Oh!" Mrs. Wang raised her eyebrows slightly:

"I remembered, you are such a lucky star as Wei Zhixing said, what's going on?"

As he spoke, he glanced at the field.

"That's right." Zhou Jia bowed:

"The innkeeper is missing. Leader Ren suspects that the murderer is hiding among us, so he plans to take him back and investigate carefully."

"Shopkeeper Qingfengju." Mrs. Wang covered her mouth and smiled softly, with a smile as bright as a flower:

"What does his disappearance have to do with you? How can a person in this position be touched by a fifth-level person like you?"

"You think so, Leader Ren?"

"That's what Mrs. Wang said." Leader Ren lowered his head.

Facing this charming and gorgeous lady, he subconsciously took two steps back, as if he was extremely afraid, and even his voice became a little weaker.

Without waiting for the other party to speak, he said directly:

"Brother Zhou has no problem and can leave."

"And those three girls." Mrs. Wang nodded, then stretched out her hand to point to the three girls who were deliberately close to Zhou Jia, and said with a smile:

"What can a few girls do?"

"Yes, yes." Leader Ren responded repeatedly.

"That's right." Mrs. Wang nodded and was about to put down the car curtain when she looked at Zhou Jia again:

"The society has not been very peaceful recently. Don't stay in the inner city all the time. It's time to go back and have a look. After all, you are also a member of the Fish and Dragon Society."

"Yes." Zhou Jia should be:

"My subordinate understands."

"Um."

The curtains were lowered, and the carriage drifted away with the fragrance.

To her, this scene was just a trivial matter, but to Zhou Jia, it was undoubtedly a great relief.

…………

Returning to the guest room, the Jiao sisters had thanked him profusely and left. The room became his only residence again, and the space became wider.

"go out?"

Zhou Jia touched the injury on his chest and shook his head gently:

"We have to wait until the injury is healed before we talk."
To be continued...
