hell [suspense]

"Is that really the case?" Ye Yu pondered, "What's the specific reason? Did you ask?"

Qin Yan's eyes showed embarrassment: "No, they refused to say."

Knowing this would be the result, Qin Yan looked bad-tempered, hard to speak, and cold-hearted, but Ye Yu knew that his heart was not as "ruthless" as his own, and he was upright, without using inappropriate means.

Needless to say, it must have been asked twice, and those four people were unwilling to speak, so Qin Yan stopped threatening.

Ye Yu looked at Qin Yan and laughed first: "The four of them refused to say anything, now it is clearer that Chen Hu is not a good person."

Qin Yan's mouth moved, but he didn't speak, but his eyes softened when he looked at Ye Yu.

"Well, I think we should go out for a walk." Ye Yu was inexplicably uncomfortable, "Concentrating on thinking all day is useless, maybe it will be good to go out for a walk and change your mind."

Qin Yan had no objection, and the two went out together.

The street is especially lively in the evening, the daytime is too hot, the evening is a good time to go out for a walk, there are waves of people going out for a stroll, shopping, and entering restaurants.

"Here." Ye Yu, who couldn't stay idle, bought two big pancakes, handed one to Qin Yan, and ate the other himself. He didn't mind if it was indecent to eat on the road. It contrasted with his gentle and handsome appearance, but He was very happy to eat, and he didn't have such a heavy sense of disobedience, "It's quite lively here."

I don't know when it started, Qin Yan is used to walking and eating with Ye Yu on the road, obviously he thought it was rude when he was a child: "What did you say about the county magistrate?"

"Oh." Ye Yu mentioned before that the county magistrate was very annoying, but did not elaborate, "Anyway, he is not a good person. You think, if the county magistrate does something, Chen Hu would dare to be so arrogant? So many people in the county will turn pale when they talk about Chen Hu , I don’t believe that the county magistrate has never heard of the wind, and the left and right just don’t care.”

"Are you going to join him for a book?"

"Naturally, such a county magistrate won't go home to farm, but save the New Year to harm the people?"

Talking while eating, Ye Yu, who clapped his hands after eating the big cake, found that they came to a familiar place, and immediately smiled: "It's here again."

Qin Yan raised his head. It was the service hall where they came to massage their feet yesterday. It was different from yesterday's deserted place. There would be people coming in and out here. Judging from their clothes, they were basically people doing coolies or farming.

"Business is good." Ye Yu smiled, just as he moved his feet, a person who had just come out of the restaurant came towards him, passing the two of them.

Ye Yu suddenly stopped, sucking his nose vigorously.

"what happened?"

Ye Yu grabbed Qin Yan's sleeve: "Go and follow that person just now, and see where he is going. You'd better find out who he is. I'll wait for you inside."

Seeing Qin Yan's doubts, Ye Yu took out a small cloth bag from his waist and unfolded it, motioning for Qin Yan to smell it: "The person who just passed by has this smell of medicine dregs on his body. I'll go inside and follow that person to see the smell of medicine." It’s the person’s own, or it was taken out of the museum, be careful.”

Qin Yan raised his eyes and clenched the knife in his right hand: "Understood, you... too."

"Hmm." The two split up again.

With Qin Yan's skills, it is really easy to follow a person in the downtown area without being spotted, but he is worried that the person is just pretending to be incompetent. To be on the safe side, he does not follow too close, and always falls behind a certain distance until the person enters a In the house near the city gate, Qin Yan held his breath and lightly climbed onto the roof.

"Are you back? Are you tired today?" A middle-aged woman came out to greet her, wearing coarse clothes and holding a spatula in her hand.

"Mother, it's okay, I paid my wages today, and I went to the 'Little Restaurant' to shave my head and massage my feet when I came back. Look, there are a lot of broken hairs on the clothes."

"Hurry up and take it off and put it in the basin. After a while, mother will come to wash it, and we will have dinner soon. Go to the field and call your father."

"Okay."

Ye Yu quickly discovered the tricky side. His sense of smell was already good, and he was extremely sensitive to the smell of the pile of medicinal residues. He circled around the crowd twice, and soon, the faint smell of medicinal herbs returned. into the nasal cavity.

Standing still, Ye Yu sniffed hard, walked a few steps forward following the smell, and saw the person in front—in the second compartment, the waiter was cutting the hair of the guest lying on the small bed, and there were three or four people outside Waiting in line, it seems that the business is very good.

Sniffing while walking towards the second compartment, the closer you are to that side, the stronger the smell of medicine. In summer, a group of old men who have just come off work smell like sweat and feet, the smell is really ecstasy, Ye Yu can't smell it at all. He realized that there was only the smell of medicine in his nostrils.

As he got closer, Ye Yu continued to walk into the cubicle, and the few people who lined up at the door were dissatisfied: "Queue up, brother, everyone is waiting."

"That's right, young people need to know order."

"Hurry up and get in line."

Ye Yu actually didn't want to jump in the line to enjoy some service, but he didn't want to say it clearly, so he could only smile and apologize to the elders beside him: "Brothers, I don't have my feet trimmed or my hair shaved, and I came to see my elder brother, misunderstanding, misunderstanding. "

Everyone's face turned pale: "Oh, then you can see."

"Thank you, thank you, my mother was in a hurry to find elder brother to go home, and she offended me." Ye Yu moved a few more steps towards the cubicle, and the smell of medicine became stronger and stronger.

After entering the cubicle, Ye Yu could already confirm that the smell of medicine came from the No. [-] waiter—no wonder the smell was inexplicably familiar when he went to the Chen’s kitchen to scrape off the medicine residue. He came here yesterday afternoon, and it was No. [-] who massaged it for him. feet.

Ye Yu didn't look at No. [-]'s face carefully yesterday. In the current scene, it's not appropriate to go over and look at his face directly. Ye Yu thought about it, stretched out his arms and said in surprise, "Brother, are you here?"

The customer who shaved his head immediately opened his eyes, and the second waiter who was busy also looked up, Ye Yu immediately stared at his face, and stepped back: "Sorry, I was wrong, excuse me, please continue." .”

"Hey, this young man is reckless." The line outside laughed and discussed, Ye Yu scratched his head in embarrassment, and left the service hall quickly.

Ye Yu didn't delay, ran back to the inn and asked the shopkeeper to borrow a pen, ink and paper to go back to the room, and drew out the face of the second waiter for a closer look - except for the texture of the skin on the face and the eyes telling him that it was indeed not a child, nothing else could be seen, But why does he smell like medicine from Chen's house?

From a pharmacological point of view, if the medicine dregs found in the Chen family are used to treat common diseases such as colds, then other people also have them, which only means that they also suffer from colds, the most common diseases, Ye Yu will not find it strange Well, the problem lies in the dregs of the medicine itself. I went to the best doctor in the county and read a lot of medical books, but I couldn't find out what disease the dregs of the medicine were for.

In other words, Ye Yu was at least half sure that he could suspect that number two in the service hall had inextricable connections with the Chen family, and it was even more likely that the service hall itself was related to the Chen family.
