Da Song Private Investigator

Chapter 167 Bird Clothes Lane.

In the evening, it started to rain. Although the rain was not very heavy, it was very cold.

Hualang and the others had just entered the border of Huainan, so they had no choice but to take shelter from the rain at an inn temporarily, and the only way to find them is to wait for news.

It was an antique inn, and the furnishings inside were very particular. After Hwarang and the others entered, they felt warm.

Not long after, the waiter in the store served the food, and the four of them were happy and at ease, but when they were eating, they found a person, who was probably in his 20s, with handsome features and a slender figure, among the many diners , no matter who glanced at the inn, they would notice him.

The young man didn't care about other people's opinions, he just drank his own drink and didn't take others seriously at all.

Hwarang thinks this young man is not simple, but they don't know each other, so it's not easy to strike up a conversation, so after Hwarang and others glanced at it, they ate their own food, and while eating, Hwarang turned to Yin Wu Cuo asked: "How far is this place from Bird Clothes Lane?"

Yin Wucuo did some calculations, and said: "At this time, Wuyi Lane has become ruins, and the people living there are all homeless or poor people. It's not far from here, about an hour away. .”

Hwarang felt a little sad in his heart, Wuyi Lane, where princes and nobles lived in the past, has now become a refuge for ordinary people. Could it be that it is in response to Liu Yuxi's poem: In the old days, the swallows in front of Wang Xietang flew into the homes of ordinary people.

Aside from being sad, Hwarang also forced himself to be calm. Perhaps it was the chaos in Bird Clothes Lane that caused don Juan to disappear. He thought he was a son of a rich family, and he came here because of his admiration for the famous places in the past. Afterwards, he discovered that Bird Clothes Lane was no longer Bird Clothes Lane, so what would he do?

Maybe you will sigh and feel sad, maybe you will leave in anger?

But no matter what, after the rain stopped, Hwarang and the others decided to go to Bird Clothes Lane to investigate.

While Hwarang was talking with Yin Wucuo, Hwarang glanced at the well-dressed boy, but when he glanced over, he found that the boy had disappeared.

Feeling somewhat disappointed, Hwarang took a sip of his wine and glanced at the drizzle outside. He didn't know when the rain would last.

The autumn rain was long and lasted until late at night. At this time, Hwarang and the others had already fallen asleep. Since the rain did not stop, they had no choice but to stay in this inn for one night.

It's just that when Hwarang was sleeping soundly, he faintly heard the sound of the door opening, but he was too sleepy, so he didn't get up to look at it, and at this time, what's there to see?

It was cold the next day, and the north wind blew on their faces, but even so, they rushed all the way to Bird Clothes Lane.

And after they got up, they didn't see the well-dressed boy again.

After walking for more than an hour, they finally came to Niaoyi Lane. At this time, Niaoyi Lane was just a dirty and dilapidated alley, completely without the prosperity and cultural atmosphere when Xie An and others lived. Bad breath.

Hualang and Yin Wucuo walked through Wuyi Lane, and asked people if they had seen the person in the portrait, but the people here shook their heads and didn't know what to do. When Hualang and the others didn't know what to do, they It was found that a family of people here was in a hurry, and they seemed to be leaving here with their burdens on their backs.

This made Hwarang feel very strange, this is the only place they can live in, why did they leave?

Hwarang stopped the family who was about to leave, and asked, "Are you leaving here?"

There was only one woman and one child in that family. The woman hugged her child, looked at Hwarang in horror, and nodded slightly.

Hwarang frowned, and continued to ask: "Why do you leave, and where do you go after you leave?"

The woman shook her head, but she said confusedly: "There are ghosts, there are ghosts here, I want to take my son and leave this place."

The child's eyes were wide open, but he seemed quite courageous, so when his mother was talking about ghosts, he suddenly said loudly: "There really are ghosts, I saw them last night."

The woman didn't dare to stay any longer, and left with her child.

When the woman left, a stall owner standing by said: "This mother and son are crazy. They talk about ghosts here all day, and we are tired of hearing it when we want to leave here. Ladies, do you want to try my trick?" your sesame seed cakes?" The stall owner started to sell his own sesame seed cakes as he spoke, Yin Wucuo got impatient and wanted to leave.

But at this moment, Hwarang stopped and said, "If you can tell me where the mothers used to live, I will take all your leftover biscuits?"

Hearing what Hwarang said, the boss who sells sesame seed cakes was a little happy, but he still couldn't believe it and asked: "I have a lot left, at least I need half a penny, can you keep your word?"

Hua Lang smiled faintly, took out half a penny from his body and threw it over, saying, "Tell me."

The boss was naturally delighted when he got the money, and hurriedly said: "The place where the mother and daughter live is remote, it's at the innermost corner of the left turn ahead, and it's easy to find."

After hearing what the boss said, Hwarang and the others rushed over immediately, and the boss who sold sesame seed cakes shouted from behind: "Guys, you haven't taken your sesame seed cakes yet?"

Hwarang had already gone far away, but he turned around and said, "You keep these biscuits for sale, and if you meet someone who can't eat, give him a few biscuits."

The boss looked at the figure of Hwarang and others leaving, smiled disdainfully, and thought in his heart, I met a fool today, and I paid a lot of money just for a piece of news, since you don’t want my biscuits, then I will continue to sell them .

After walking far, Wen Meng asked puzzledly: "Everyone said that the mother and son had mental problems, so they said they saw a ghost. Do you think this has anything to do with don Juan's disappearance?"

Hwarang smiled indifferently: "It's okay, I just found it strange, so I wanted to take a look. Even if the mother and son have brain problems, they can't say there is a ghost for no reason, there must be something strange."

Hearing what Hua Lang said, Wen Meng became a little angry, and said, "We are here to find don Juan, okay? Why are you so interested in hauntings? Don't be afraid that we are too late to find you. An accident?"

Seeing that Wen Meng was angry, Hua Lang didn't care, and said with a smile, "Then don Juan has been here for more than a month. If there is any accident, it may have happened long ago. It is useless for us to come, so don't worry about his affairs. Now that we’ve come to such a place, let’s take a look.”

As Hwarang said, he took Wen Meng's hand and turned to the left. Behind the alley where he came, a pungent smell came to his face.
