The Dragon from Hell
Chapter 1752
"No, where's my purse!"
While Zhong Mengran was hesitating and thinking, a very abrupt voice suddenly sounded in the lobby.
This voice suddenly overwhelmed the noise in the inn and became very harsh.
Qin Feng and the others looked over subconsciously and saw a man standing up from a table diagonally opposite them. He covered his empty belt with one hand and searched everywhere on the ground.
"What's the matter? Your purse is gone?"
The companions around him stood up one after another and subconsciously searched under their feet.
"No, did you forget to bring it out?" Someone asked.
"Impossible, I clearly remember that I brought it. There is still the monthly silver issued by the government office in my purse!"
Qin Feng looked over and saw that the man who spoke was tall and strong, with a very tough figure. He also had a big knife hanging on his waist, which seemed to be the standard equipment of the government office. There was also a very rough jade pendant on the handle of the knife, which was engraved with the logo of the government office.
It seems to be a public office.
Seeing that his wallet was missing, the man immediately thought that he had lost it, and shouted to other diners: "Who picked up my wallet? I advise you to hand it over to me now, otherwise if I find it, don't blame me for being rude to you!"
The man was walking with the constables of the yamen, all of them were tall and strong, and they all stared at the people around them aggressively.
Seeing that no one responded, the man who lost the money shouted: "No one admits it, right? Well, close the door for me, I want to search everyone one by one!"
At this time, the waiter also ran out. This time, his expression was much more lively than before, with a smile on his face, but his forehead was sweating anxiously.
He wiped the sweat with the rag on his shoulder while jogging: "Oh, gentlemen, what's wrong?"
The diners in the store had already started to make a commotion at this time. Some people were dissatisfied, but they didn't say it loudly, for fear of being troubled by these people.
If they really made a fuss, the store would probably suffer a lot of losses today.
"What's wrong? How do you run this shop?" The man who lost the money grabbed the waiter's collar and said, "I lost my money in your shop. Don't you plan to give me an explanation?"
The waiter was short and was pulled to tiptoe. He smiled bitterly and said, "Master, calm down, I really don't know what happened... Why don't you look for it carefully? Maybe it's a misunderstanding? Who knows if it fell in the toilet!"
At this time, the man's companions had already guarded the door, and no one was allowed to enter, and no one outside was allowed to leave.
Because these people seemed to be from the government, no one dared to offend them.
"I don't know if it fell in the toilet?"
Just now, when he was eating and drinking, the man looked down at his purse from time to time.
After all, he had just received the monthly silver today, and he had planned to use this money to find a beautiful girl in Yihongyuan to enjoy a night.
Looking at the bulging purse, it was as if he saw a skinny body lying in front of him. How could it be lost?
The man was so angry that it looked like the waiter had stolen his money.
At this time, the innkeeper also ran out. Although his steps were hurried, his face was not as anxious as the waiter: "Chen Si, what are you doing in my store? Have you forgotten whose place this is?"
Seeing the innkeeper come out, the anger on the face of the constable named Chen Si subsided a little, and he let go of the man, but his face was still very ugly.
"Manager Xu, it's not that I don't give you and your boss face, and I don't want to make trouble. But I lost money here, you have to give me an explanation, right? Otherwise, even if your boss Song comes, I will say the same thing."
It can be seen that Chen Si is more afraid of the owner behind Yuelai Inn, but in front of the innkeeper, he still cares more about his purse.
"What's going on?" Shopkeeper Xu didn't rush to talk to Chen Si, but looked at the waiter.
The waiter straightened his clothes and stood beside the shopkeeper with his waist bent: "Shopkeeper, these guests have lost a purse here, and now we are closing the door for a body search!"
"Shopkeeper Xu, it's not too much for me to do this? My money must have been lost while eating. Whether it fell on the ground and was picked up, or stolen by someone with dirty hands and feet..." Chen Si looked around, his expression was particularly cold, and finally fell on Shopkeeper Xu, and his anger was restrained a lot: "You can't even give me the power to search myself in your store, right?"
Hearing this, Shopkeeper Xu frowned and thought for a moment, then said: "You are the constables of the yamen. If someone loses money, it's natural.I want to report the case to the government office. Now that you are right here, I have no reason to stop you. "
"But you can investigate, I have a few distinguished guests here, please be quiet and don't disturb them."
As he said, Shopkeeper Xu pointed upstairs.
Chen Si looked in the direction of his hand and immediately understood that there seemed to be an important person living in the inn upstairs.
"Thank you, Shopkeeper Xu!" Chen Si clasped his hands, with a bit of gratitude in his eyes.
If the important person was really disturbed, no one would be able to escape.
Although he could be arrogant to ordinary people, he was just a small ant in front of the important people.
"Well." Shopkeeper Xu waved his hand to show that he was free.
Then he said to the other diners: "Dear guests, please be patient. You just need to cooperate with the officials to investigate. As long as you are innocent, you will definitely be fine. To express our apology, our inn will give each of you a glass of fine wine later, as our apology to you. "
One glass of wine per person, even if it is only one glass, is quite good in this era of expensive alcohol, so many diners expressed satisfaction and were willing to cooperate.
At this time, the eyes of Qin Feng and his table fell on a smaller figure in the corner.
Yes, the child who sneaked in was stopped before he could run out.
The main reason is that Chen Si reacted too quickly. He found the money bag as soon as it was lost, and then he yelled immediately, and everyone stopped their actions.
This child is quite smart. At that time, when everyone stopped moving, he would be particularly eye-catching if he ran out again.
Especially with his dress, it was abrupt to appear here. At that time, he would definitely be seen if he ran away.
But he didn't run away just now. Now that the door of the inn is closed, it is equivalent to catching a turtle in a jar.
Qin Feng and the others stared at him: Could this be the childhood trauma of the owner of the state of mind?
