I just want salted fish

Chapter 300

Of course, Feng Linlin's words were just words.

She had to behave like a normal lady, if it was too abnormal for criminals to see through it, it would be boring.

She turned back to the guest room, and someone walked into the inn again, and the proprietress walked up enthusiastically: "Oh, Mr. Bai, it's been a long time since you have delivered goods here!"

As soon as Young Master Bai opened his mouth, Feng Linlin turned his head back twitching at the corner of his mouth.

Bai Xiaoyuan stood at the door with a slight smile: "Miss Boss, don't come here unharmed, do you still have a room?"

"Yes, yes~ Come with me!"

Bai Xiaoyuan looked up, looked at Feng Linlin who was standing on the stairs, and smiled: "It seems that we are really destined."

Feng Linlin: "Haha, yes."

The landlady stood between the two of them: "Oh? You two know each other?"

"Yes……"

Feng Linlin was afraid that he would say something that he shouldn't say, so she said first, "I just came out to play with Mr. Bai's caravan!"

Bai Xiaoyuan was noncommittal and smiled gently.

The proprietress is a mature and beautiful woman, and she is very interested in Bai Xiaoyuan. Seeing Bai Xiaoyuan's gentle and doting attitude towards this little girl, I feel very uncomfortable.

But what can she do?
It is important to open the door for business.

The proprietress is very good at coming, and regardless of the little girl, she directly arranged Bai Xiaoyuan's room next to Feng Linlin.

The landlady dropped the person off and left. Feng Linlin sat in the room, considering whether to change to another inn now.

After a while, someone knocked on the door: "If there is no other arrangement, do you want to have lunch together? There is nothing delicious here. The caravan brought some specialties from the capital to make by ourselves."

Feng Linlin opened the door: "Can't you just ignore me?"

Bai Xiaoyuan looked at her: "I don't know why, but I just feel worried about you."

"I'm already married."

"I know, but I can't just leave you alone." As he spoke, he thoughtfully named the dish.

Feng Linlin is not a greedy person.

But on the way, she didn't have any appetite at all. After finally coming here, her body was comfortable and she had a little appetite. After hearing what he said again, her stomach started to growl.

It would be embarrassing to say "I'm not hungry" again.

She cleared her throat: "Let's go then."

Bai Xiaoyuan invited her to go downstairs very seriously, and when she came to him, he looked at her back, and the corners of his mouth curled up in a gentle arc.

Her back, her voice, her breath.

It all made him feel so familiar.

The innkeeper cannot stop guests from bringing their own food. After all, most of the guests who come to Shanglin City stay in the hotel, and no one comes here specifically to eat.

Feng Linlin walked with the caravan for half a month, and became acquainted, and when she followed Bai Xiaoyuan downstairs, several subordinates who knew Bai Xiaoyuan immediately waved their hands, and one of them greeted her with a smile: "Veil girl! I said why I didn't see you in the morning, so you came to the inn first to stay."

Feng Linlin nodded, and asked Bai Xiaoyuan in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Didn't you tell them I'm leaving?"

Bai Xiaoyuan took her to a seat, imitating her to avoid answering: "The food will be served in a while."

Feng Linlin: "..."

The former Bai Xiaoyuan is still cute, and he has something to say.

Bai Xiaoyuan and his party came early, before lunch time, the kitchen was occupied by the caravan's own chefs, and hot rice, stir-fried vegetables and soups were poured out continuously.

Feng Linlin was sitting by the window with her back to the lobby, only Bai Xiaoyuan could see her face.

After the food was served, Feng Linlin took off her veil and looked at him: "Have you seen enough?"

Although he tried his best to conceal it, he could still see the disappointment in his eyes: "Well... please use it."

He didn't recognize that face.

It seems that he is too suspicious.

The people in the caravan had a lively lunch and went to deliver the supplies.

Bai Xiaoyuan was going too, he looked at Feng Linlin and asked, "Together?"

"No, I'm tired and I need to sleep."

"Okay, I believe you have heard the rumors about Shanglin City, try not to go out alone, if you need anything, let me know."

"Okay, thank you, Mr. Bai, you can go to work."

The two broke up, and Feng Linlin returned to the room, quietly waiting for the night to fall.

It doesn't matter if Bai Xiaoyuan is here, the unclear relationship between the two of them can be used as a cover.

Bai Xiaoyuan left for a whole day, and at night, Feng Linlin changed into night clothes and started to act.

If the practice relies too much on spells, once the spiritual power is lost, the practitioner will become useless.

Feng Linlin suffered from not being able to use spells. In the years in the human world, she hunted and supported her family. She raised her body in a good shape. She moved more nimbly and lightly than ordinary people. She walked lightly on the waves and walked over the walls without resorting to spells.

Girls have been murdered in Shanglin City one after another. Now when it gets dark, there is no one on the streets. It was originally a remote town, but now it is deserted, with few lanterns, and it becomes more and more gloomy like a ghost town.

Feng Linlin walked towards the east of the city against the base of the wall.

In order to avoid exposing her aura, she brought a magic weapon that can be traced to the source - a small psychic mirror. The files sent earlier stated the addresses where the bodies of those girls were found. The first one was found in the moat of the east gate of the city. .

When we came to the east of the city, there were only a few veterans guarding the city with lanterns in the gate of the city wall.

The few people were old and frail, and were not worried about encountering unexpected events. While guarding the city, they discussed the murders in the city in detail.

"I don't know what is so heartless. Is it easy for my parents to support a good girl? She is about to get married and start a family, but she is being ruined to death. How can her parents bear it?"

"That's right, just Feng'er from the opposite door of my house, what a beautiful girl, she is quiet and knowledgeable, and walking with the young master of the master's family, she is really a golden boy and a jade girl... Alas, after that day, the young master I just don’t think about food and drink, and I’m so thin that I’m out of shape.”

"These murder cases are really evil. Has the yamen ever thought about letting the mage come and have a look?"

"Who knows? There are more and more demons nowadays, and they are getting more and more crazy. They dare to walk on the street holding an umbrella in broad daylight. I think the world is going to be in chaos."

"You can't talk nonsense!"

Several veterans sighed and changed the subject.

Feng Linlin also sighed and found the place where the first body was found.

She scanned it with a psychic mirror and found no trace of evil spirit remaining.

Could it be that it's been so long that we can't find out?
It shouldn't be possible. Monster energy is more viscous to the environment than spiritual energy. If a place is contaminated with monster energy, it will remain there for a year and a half.

Unless someone removes such traces.

But the murderer committed murders here one after another, and he didn't know how to restrain himself at all. How could he be the kind of guy who was careful enough to eliminate traces?

If you can't find it anywhere, find another place.

Feng Linlin changed several places, but no trace of evil spirit was found.

This is strange.

There's no reason to throw people in such an obvious place, and hide your evil spirit...

Suddenly, she felt a chill in her heart.

unless--

The murderer is a human being, not a demon.
