Did the tavern owner cook Chinese food today?

At noon, at the entrance of the Mandala Tavern, three fine horses stood quietly, two horses were led by a stable boy, and a man with a cloak covering his face stood on the far side.

"Selah, come out!" Mammy shouted sharply, urging behind her.She tied the silver coins tightly with her fingers, and smiled courteously to the two tall men in front of her.

"Hey, don't worry, you two. Although Sierra is not the most beautiful flower here, she has the 'qualification' and stays for a long time. She can do any style. She is very popular among the nobles. , especially that voice, like a nightingale, singing very nicely... Sera, don't dawdle, let the guests wait for you for a while, and serve them with all your heart!"

Mammy hurriedly grabbed Sera's sleeve and drove to the front.

A hand emptied around Sera's shoulder, and if you look carefully, only the wrist touches her body slightly.

"Let's go." A deep voice sounded, and the trip came to an end.

One nodded in greeting, and the other followed closely behind. They turned around and walked in the direction of the horse.

Mammy watched Selah being carried onto the horse in a daze, while secretly annoyed that the girl was abnormally sluggish today and didn't know how to please the situation; at the same time, she weighed her palms and felt that Selah was really blessed.

There are not many guests who can bring flowers home to play with.Besides, although the two of them just now were wearing thick robes and covering their faces, they had outstanding temperament, so they must be either rich or noble.

Counting the money, Mammy smiled happily, and gradually disappeared into the depths of the brothel.

Sierra, who was riding on the horse, was in a daze.

After walking a certain distance, Sera woke up like a dream.There was a strange but familiar temperature on her back, she lowered her eyes, holding the wrist of the rein, and tied the bracelet that Zach often wore.

She didn't dare to believe it until the second before she saw someone, that Nianhua's boss and his younger brother actually came to pick her up in person.Especially Zach's accompanying, made her overjoyed.

There was a gaze beside him, lingering indistinctly, as if looking at him, without the slightest hint of offense.

Sierra was hard not to notice.Her cheeks were a little hot, and it was rare for a girl like her to show a blushing face.

Excited?Sure, she hadn't stepped out of a brothel in ages, and excited about her foreseeable future.

It seems to be to take care of her emotions—although Sera has been for a long time, almost forgetting this thoughtfulness from others, and even a little flattered by it—along the way, several people did not speak much.It wasn't until the wine shop was approaching and the environment became quiet that I finally started to introduce myself.

"Hawley. You can call me by my first name if you want, or call me Boss Huo."

The man who led her to the horse earlier lifted his hood and looked at her with soft eyes with the corners of his eyes slightly drooping.

Sela shook her head in horror, then nodded sharply. "Boss Huo." She called out, feeling even more astonished in her heart.

Boss Huo has a good appearance, which is a bit strange at first glance, just because of the exotic blood that he has never seen before.But he was undoubtedly handsome, much handsomer than many young masters she had seen.

"Zach is right, you do have a beautiful voice." After dismounting, Hawley led several people into the house, "Wilmer Yeoman, my younger brother." He introduced casually.

This is the dark elf that the passer-by said. Sera was curious, but she didn't show it. She saluted respectfully: "Mr. Yeoman."

Mr. Yeoman didn't seem easy to get along with, and his whole body seemed to be covered with a layer of ice.The other party nodded slightly and gave a soft "hmm".

When she entered the house, she didn't dare to go beyond, and didn't observe and look at the environment too much.Until he inadvertently raised his eyes, he saw Wilmer's face with the mask off.

As if seeing a god with his own eyes, Sera was out of the gods for a long time.Thanks to Zach tugging at her sleeves and reminding her softly behind her.

"Sister, sit next to me."

Sera quickly regained consciousness, sat down next to Zach, and touched her face slightly ashamed.

Holly served them hot tea, chrysanthemums bloomed on the water, pears like clouds.

When she came this time, Sera knew in her heart that there was actually something important to communicate with her.

But Boss Huo first regarded her as an applicant and tested her singing voice.Nervousness weighed down his throat. At first, Serra sang dryly, but Hawley didn't show any sign of reproach.

Under the encouraging eyes, she gradually let go of herself and concentrated on enjoying the pleasure in her heart.

The "interview" passed very smoothly, but in fact it was just Sera's excellent ability.As for things in the brothel, Hawley basically didn't say a word.

Step by step, Sela felt that something heavy on her feet was slowly dissolving.

Of course, she was dizzy with joy from Boss Huo's sincere appreciation and praise. Regarding the official signing of the contract, Zach was ready to help her check it out.However, when the contract was in hand, Zach couldn't help expressing his gratitude many times.It's really that Nianhua's employees are treated so well, even he is surprised by Holly's generosity.

Solve the things that have been negotiated first, and get back on track.

"Come here today, I have something important to talk to you about." Holly still had a gentle smile on his face, and his green eyes were serious.

"I know." Sierra sat upright, looked at Zach, nodded, took a deep breath, and said, "I was there at noon yesterday. Although I didn't witness the death process, I roughly experienced... Shelley complaint process."

"Shelley?" Wilmer asked.

"It's the woman who slandered Nianhua and cried while hugging the dead body." Sera's cheeks flushed a little bit, connecting her neck and ears, and Holly saw anger in her eyes.

Then, as if the balloon deflated in an instant, Sera's expression became painful.

She told everyone exactly what she saw and heard at the time, including how she knew Shelley and how harmonious their relationship was.

Sierra covered her face with her hands, a mountain of guilt bent her back.

"I'm sorry...Boss Huo, I beg you to forgive me. At that time, I noticed something strange about Shelley based on my intuition. But instinct and intuition cannot represent everything, so I cast aside those 'unrealistic' doubts , and even led to today's consequences..."

"Not only did I lure the wolf into the house, but I also handed the knife to Shelley. I told her a lot about Nianhua before."

"It's not your fault, sister." Zach hugged her to his chest, and he kept kissing Sierra's hair to comfort her.

"I don't blame you, Sierra. On the contrary, you are doing a good job. Don't let these things become your shackles. Tell me and Wilmer more about your suspicions about her in your usual exchanges with Shelley." .”

With Holly's words, Sierra felt relieved, and she expressed her heartfelt thanks to Holly over and over again.

"She usually hides it very well. When we talk, she will always talk about some things first, and then gradually turn the topic to Nianhua. On the first day we met, she showed great interest in Nianhua .”

"Actually, there is also you." Sera looked at Holly.

"I?"

"Yes. On the first day, she even asked me which store you often go to. How do I know? So I told the truth. These things, if that thing hadn't happened, might be forgotten forever in my memory."

"If the suspicion at that moment was an illusion, then a few days before the incident, Zach came to me secretly...you remember it, right?...No, it wasn't the day before, it was you who came to me frequently, unremittingly Encouragement, encouragement, and courage to sit here today...

"During the same period of time, she seemed to be aware of something, and she was looking for me very frequently. I don't know if it was her own discovery, or some other method. She seemed to guess that I would have a connection with Nianhua.

"About this, I have a reason: she no longer hides, she will talk to me straight to the point about the tavern and about you. She actually asked me a few times jokingly if I knew you, but didn't tell her...God, now Thinking of this, I really have goosebumps!"

The horror and understanding in Sera's eyes at this moment cannot be faked.

"I can assure you that everything I have told you now is true. If possible, I would swear by the Parrott oath."

Hawley and Wilmer looked at each other, interrupting Selah's idea of ​​taking the Parrott oath, and he asked Selah to calm down for the time being, expressing his willingness to believe her.

And Sera seemed to think of an important thing, she quickly opened the package, and a wine bottle was wrapped in multiple layers of thick cloth.

"It was the wine I shared with Shelley at the time. I told you before that the new bottle was given to her--it was probably the stupidest thing I ever did--whether you believe it or not, it is exactly that. Bottle of wine."

Zach added: "You gave me wine twice in total, I remember it very clearly. What my sister said was the second time, that is, the baijiu a few days ago."

After taking the bottle, Holly put it on the tip of his nose and sniffed it.Different from the packaging of the Fen-flavor liquor, he could immediately smell it as a sauce-flavored liquor.

"There was absolutely nothing in the wine, and I drank quite a bit the night I got it. It was still fine the next day—the guest Shelley received died. That's why I want to trust you all."

She suddenly fell silent, frowned slightly, and lowered her eyes quietly.Everyone knew that she was remembering, so they didn't make any noise.

"Also," Sera said after a while, "At that time, even though Shelley didn't mention by name, there was something wrong with Nianhua's wine."

"Forgive me for not being able to repeat her words to you. I only remember one or two sentences. I won't tell you what I'm not sure about. But I think every sentence of Shelley seems to point the finger at Nianhua."

"She didn't say it clearly, but she led the guest's death to the liquor, and it was before the magician checked it. Tell the onlookers to think about it, right?" Wilmer said suddenly.

"That's right!" Sera nodded heavily, "You're very accurate, and that's exactly what I want to say."

Wilmer had already begun to investigate last night when the news was not as widespread as it is today.Combined with what he had learned in the main city of Juta this morning, he sifted through the information of some people who claimed to be witnesses, and finally came to this inference.

It is a pity that they have not been able to grasp the conclusive evidence now.If Serra's words are true, what exactly is Shelley's intention?

There is no need to pay such a high price to simply destroy Nianhua. Holly and Wilmer discussed it last night.Although this is still an era of life and death.

They didn't believe that Shelley was the only one who exposed the light.Who is the manipulator behind the scenes and what is his purpose? We need to hurry up and figure out everything.
