Chapter 170
Because the lobby on the first floor needed to be renovated, the damaged tables and chairs had to be replaced, and the store was still short of manpower, Wen Xia could only temporarily close the inn.

Wen Xia took the opportunity to look at other shops, and after finding that they were all open, Wen Xia began to investigate the cause of the original owner's father's death.

According to the information, Wen Haifu was out doing business when the inn where he stayed caught fire. Like most of the guests, he was trapped in the inn and could not escape.

The place where Wen Haifu's accident occurred was Shang'an City.

The original owner did not believe that the inn where Wen Haifu lived accidentally caught fire.

She entrusted someone to investigate, and the clue at that time was that someone maliciously set the fire.

After further investigation, the survivors at that time actually died or disappeared one after another, and the people who investigated later refused to accept the order.

So the original owner left his hometown and came to Shang'an City. Apart from being influenced by the rumors in his hometown, he also wanted to personally investigate the truth of Wen Haifu's death.

After the original owner arrived in Shang'an City, in addition to relocating property, he also secretly investigated the inn that was burned at that time.

According to the memory of the original owner, the burned inn was originally named Fulai Inn, and it was the best inn in Ancheng at that time.

After being burned, many people felt it was a pity.

But not long after, another Xiangyun Inn appeared not far from Fulai Inn.

Same service, same fee, similar decoration...

Soon Xiangyun Inn replaced Fulai Inn and became the best inn in Shang'an City.

This information is something that all you need to know is to ask the locals.

Many people think that Xiangyun Inn will seize the opportunity.

However, after investigation by the original owner, it was discovered that the owners of Xiangyun Inn and Fulai Inn were suspected to be the same person.

The owner of Fulai Inn died in that fire...

When the original owner investigated this place, he became seriously ill and died soon.

Wen Xia is a little suspicious now, whether the sudden serious illness of the original owner is also related to what she is investigating.

The original owner thought he was sick because he was weak.

But in fact it is very likely to be poisoned...

If she was really poisoned, the person who poisoned her found that she was not dead and was still alive and kicking, so they should look for opportunities to attack her.

Just in case, Wen Xia prepared several bottles of poisons of different strengths for himself, as well as a bottle of detoxification pills, which can be used to detoxify several kinds of poisons that are common in the world.

And Wen Xia followed the original owner's clues to investigate.

Soon she was sure that the owners of Xiangyun Inn and Fulai Inn were the same person.

However, he has changed his name and surname, and put on a human skin mask.

Changing the name and surname is barely understandable.

After all, the survivors of the fire died one after another, and he might be afraid of being discovered.

But in the investigation of the original owner, the boss is an ordinary businessman.

Human skin masks are not a common thing.

Many people don't even know about human skin masks, let alone find out who made them.

He is an ordinary businessman, not only knows about human skin masks, but also can find someone to make and buy them...

Wen Xia made many investigations and found the person who made the human skin mask for him——

The top card of Huadie Pavilion, Yue Lian
It's the same as Fuliuyuan, where you don't sell your body. Both male and female guests are welcome. There are various ways to play, from drinking and listening to music to auctioning rare paintings and calligraphy.

Huadie Pavilion doesn't have that many tricks, it's just an out-and-out brothel.

Wen Xia sighed that there are so many talents in the brothel these days.

A top brothel guy actually knows how to make human skin masks.

With this kind of craftsmanship, it is a technical talent that is in short supply and scrambles for someone to put it in the world.

Now he is actually the number one card in the brothel?
I heard that she was sold into a brothel since she was a child...

No, now that the brothel is so good, do you still teach the girls in the brothel this technique?

Wen Xia frowned, realizing that things were not simple.

Is there a master behind Yue Lian?

Or is the entire Huadie Pavilion actually a point of a certain organization in Shang'an City?

Wen Xia sighed, prepared her clothes, and was going to visit Huadie Pavilion at night.

At this time, Wen Xia felt that Huadie Pavilion's business was really not extensive.

This made her go in disguised as a man.

Fortunately, with the experience of being in a boy band, Wen Xia was pretty good at dressing up even without the aid of gender-changing props.

Of course, the main thing is to be confident.

Pretend to be a young son, hold a fan, prepare a purse, and walk in generously.

You must say silently in your heart, I am the dream of a young girl in Shang'an City, I am the most handsome man in Shang'an City, self-hypnosis.

As soon as Wen Xia entered, someone greeted him immediately.

"The young master looks strange, is this the first time you come back? What kind of girl does the young master like? I will arrange it for you right away."

"I heard that Miss Yuelian dances beautifully, so I came here specially to have a look."

Yue Lian is the top card in Huadie Pavilion, there are many people who come to see her every day, no one is suspicious when Wen Xia says that.

"Yue Lian is not feeling well today and will not be accepting guests. Sir, why don't you look at the other girls? In addition to Yue Lian, Bai Shuang and Hong Xiu in the building are also good dancers."

Wen Xia put away her fan regretfully, "Really, then let... Hongxiu come, she doesn't talk much, right? I don't like noisy people."

"Young master, don't worry, Hongxiu will definitely take good care of you."

"Young master, please."

This person took Wen Xia to a room on the third floor. Compared with the bustling first floor, the third floor was much quieter.

That is, the entire Huadie Pavilion is filled with an ambiguous fragrance, which makes people feel dry and hot.

I was still careless, I only thought of poison, but I forgot that there are more incense in the brothel to add to the fun.

I lost a few taels of silver as tips to the guides.

The other party smiled into a flower, put away the money, and left the room respectfully.

I just like this kind of generous young man.

Wen Xia heard the footsteps of the guide walking away, and held Hong Xiu's wrist.

He said to Hongxiu who was about to undress and serve him, "Let's dance a song that you are good at first."

Hong Xiu's hands touched Wen Xia's waist, and when she heard Wen Xia's words, her hands stopped.

I thought to myself that this young man looks young, so it must be the first time he went to a brothel, right?
But she still stood up and began to dance, and while dancing, she sniffed Xia with her eyes.

Wen Xiaquan pretended not to see it, and tapped on the table with his fingers.

Hongxiu was dancing and saw Xia Zai beckoning to him.

She thought that this handsome young man was still too young, and she couldn't bear the few glances at him.

Hongxiu is proud of his charm.

In fact, Wen Xia didn't wave to her at all.

After Hong Xiu fainted in the hallucination, Wen Xia picked him up and put him on the bed.

Hong Xiu, who had fainted, was still hallucinating, and made many ambiguous sounds from his mouth.

Wen Xia blushed when she heard that, and released the prepared paper figurine. With just one gesture, the paper figurine became bigger and finally turned into Wen Xia's appearance.

The paper figurine Wen Xia stayed in the room and looked at Hong Xiu, while the real Wen Xia slipped out of the window and started exploring in the Huadie Pavilion.

Soon Wen Xia found Yue Lian's room.

Yue Lian, who was said to be unwell today, was not in the room.

Wen Xia carefully avoided the simple mechanism of the window and turned in. After quickly restoring the mechanism, she began to search in the room.

Perhaps because it is the top card, Yue Lian's room is very large.

Wen Xia tried to find some useful clues.

While Wen Xia was rummaging carefully, she suddenly heard some small sounds. Wen Xia stopped for a second, then quickly turned over and hid.
