As soon as the shopkeeper saw Xie Qiran's cold eyes, the whole person counseled and asked carefully: "what are you doing? I... "
" I have something to ask you. " Chi Qingyu interrupted him and said, "we went to your store to eat the day before yesterday. Do you remember?"
Although the shopkeeper doesn't remember others, he has a deep memory of Xie Qiran. After all, such a man with temperament is not common in wulicheng.
Shaking his head, the shopkeeper said: "remember, but after eating our food, what's wrong with you?"
Smell speech, late light feather frowned, originally want to ask out of words, suddenly stopped.
Xie Qiran is also very surprised to pick eyebrows, seems to be very surprised for the reaction of the shopkeeper.
After pondering for a while, Chi Qingyu looks at Han Jiu and asks, "did you bring anything back?"
Han Jiu nods and takes out a food box from behind him.
He snatched the food box from his younger brother just now. He snatched the food box and took away the boss. It's estimated that the restaurant will be in a mess.
When the shopkeeper saw the food box, he said helplessly, "my guest, this is our food box. You have taken it away. What can we take to send it?"
It's time to worry about this.
"We'll send someone to solve this later. You come first." Chi Qingyu commands the shopkeeper to sit down, and then asks Han Jiu to take out the things in the food box.
Cold nine understand Chi Qingyu's meaning, naturally just take out the rice.
When the shopkeeper saw that they had put a bowl of rice in front of him, he said strangely, "what? Isn't this the rice in our shop? Do you think there is something wrong with the rice in our shop
Chi Qingyu didn't speak. He just knocked on the table and motioned him to eat.
There is a Xie Qiran guarding there, the shopkeeper also dare not say not to eat, can only helplessly pick up chopsticks, eat two mouthfuls of rice.
Seeing that he ate rice calmly, Chi Qingyu hid rice in his hand and tested it with silver needle.
That is to say, there was no discoloration when the silver needle was drawn.
Disappointed, Chi Qingyu put the rice back on the table and said, "shopkeeper, where did you buy the rice in your shop?"
The shopkeeper saw her acting strangely, but he could probably guess that there was something wrong with Baifan.
"The rice in our shop has always been provided by the rice merchants in the city, but yesterday the rice in our shop was gone, and we couldn't buy it from the rice merchants, so we had to go out of the city and collect it from the villagers." The honest account of the shopkeeper.
"Yesterday is over?" Hearing this, Chi Qingyu suddenly came to the spirit and asked, "where is the rice merchant you are talking about?"
Scared by Chi Qingyu, the shopkeeper replied: "just... The big rice merchant in the East Street in front of him."
Chi Qingyu dropped the silver needle in his hand and said, "go and have a look."
Xie Qiran grabs Chi Qingyu and looks at Han Jiu. "Look at him."
Han Jiu nodded and stood behind the shopkeeper.
Xie Qiran then takes Chi Qingyu out. They leave the post station and face east.
Chi Qingyu's steps are fast and urgent. Although Xie Qiran is also anxious, there is a more anxious person beside him. He can only calm himself down and deal with it properly.
According to the shopkeeper, they found the so-called big rice merchant and found that there was no one inside.
Although the door was open, there was no rice or seller in it.
Chi Qingyu stands at the door and shouts, "is there anyone inside?"
No one answered. They went straight into the house.
It's empty. Nobody's here.
This is just like a person walking in the empty building. Chi Qingyu frowns, stands outside the door, takes a look at the shop opposite, and walks over.
The shop across the street is also a rice shop.
The business of this rice shop is very poor, at least in Chi Qingyu's opinion, there are no customers.
"Shopkeeper." Chi Qingyu knocked on the shopkeeper's desk, trying to wake up the sleeping man.
The shop owner raised his head, looked at Chi Qingyu vaguely, then looked at the person behind her, and muttered, "how come there are still people coming to buy rice now?"
Chi Qingyu smiles and says, "we're not here to buy rice. I want to ask, what's wrong with the Dahang rice shop? No one. "
Smell speech, the shopkeeper looked toward opposite, sneer a way: "recently is not that what disease?"? They are all in the middle of the family, and now they don't know where to lie. "
All of them? Chi Qingyu frowned, and glanced over the rice in the shop. He took a look at Xie Qiran.
Xie Qiran came to the front, blocked Chi Qingyu with his body, and talked to the store.
However, Xie Qiran's momentum is too strong, not so much to speak with the shop owner as to ask him unilaterally.
While Xie Qiran was talking to him, Chi Qingyu tried all the rice bags here with a silver needle. At last, the silver needle didn't change.Chi Qingyu some regret, and Xie Qiran said, two people left the rice shop.
Playing with a silver needle in his hand, Chi Qingyu doubts: "just now the boss said that the whole family of the owner of Dahang rice shop has been poisoned. Do you think this is the reason for the rice?"
"I don't rule that out." Xie Qiran is still very rational analysis.
If that's the case, they have to find the boss as soon as possible, just hope that he hasn't yet...
you know, the attack is fast, which can't be predicted by Chi Qingyu.
Thinking of this, Chi Qingyu grabs Xie Qiran's hand and says, "let's go, use lightness skills. We need to find the owner quickly."
Xie Qiran knew that she was worried. He put his arms around Chi Qingyu's waist and lowered his head to ask. His eyes swept her hand and suddenly stopped.
Seeing that Xie Qiran didn't move, Chi Qingyu stares at his hand and doubts: "what are you looking at... Changed?"
The silver needle in Chi Qingyu's hand, I don't know when, turned black.
She was quite sure that before she left the shop, she hurt the silver needle and did not change color.
"Does this silver needle change color mean that we are in the right direction?" Xie Qiran asks Chi Qingyu.
Chi Qingyu nodded and turned to the rice shop. "Yes, I don't know which bag of rice it is, but I can check it slowly."
As long as we find the root, are we still afraid that we can't get rid of the poison?
At the thought of this, Chi Qingyu's steps are much faster.
When they arrived, the shop was closing.
"Shopkeeper!" Chi Qingyu cried out.
The shop owner turned around and saw Chi Qingyu and Xie Qiran running towards this side, wondering, "what else can I do for you two?"
Chi Qingyu glanced at the locked door and asked, "does the store close so early? No more business? "
The shop owner sneered and said, "it's the way of the world. What business can we have? It's important to protect our lives. My wife, let me go back early every day."
No wonder his rice bags here are full, and he didn't sell much rice at all.
