Chapter 1534: No Statement
.When Mo Yunjing returned to Jingtang Garden, An Xuetang was writing a letter with plum blossom carbon. Hearing the sound of the door opening, she raised her head and glanced at it. Seeing that it was...The shopkeeper only reluctantly came to his senses and quickly said, "Yes, that's right, sir. No one has come to stay at the inn for a long time. After that room had another murder three months ago, rumors spread outside that the inn was haunted, saying whoever stayed there would die. So, for the past three months, there hasn't been a single guest at the inn."
After the shop assistant had spoken, the shopkeeper also quickly said: "Sir, this matter is not a secret. Just ask someone and you'll know whether we are lying or not."
Yun Si narrowed his eyes slightly. Just then, his subordinate who had come out with him also caught up. He motioned for the subordinate to walk beside him and whispered a few words in his ear.
Then, the subordinate immediately bowed slightly and, without a word, turned and left with the doctor.
Yun Si was not in a hurry now. He looked at the shop assistant and then at the shopkeeper, "Then let's first talk about what happened today."
His words gave the two people present a glimmer of hope. The innkeeper quickly said, "Sir, the inn will operate for half a day today as usual. I and the shop assistants were just discussing wages, when that young lady walked in."
“That girl's request was strange. The moment she opened her mouth, she demanded that very room. Both the commoner and the innkeeper were stunned. That room in the inn had been the site of many deaths, with rumors of a ghost residing within. The commoner couldn't have imagined anyone would willingly want to stay there.”
"The commoner was thinking that the inn had finally gotten a guest, and she couldn't cheat her. So, she took the initiative to inform, 'The room the girl requested is actually an unlucky one, with someone having died in it.'"
Let me translate that for you: Let me know if you'd like me to try translating anything else!
"I thought that after informing the girl like this, she would know better than to pursue it, or even change inns. But I truly didn't expect that this girl not only wouldn't appreciate it, but also scolded me for being 'talkative'."
“The girl's eyes at that time seemed to say, 'If the commoner doesn't follow my lead, she won't let it go.'"
"It was the guest who came forward, after all. Since the young lady insisted on staying in that room, this humble servant naturally obliged her and had her pay for it."
"I wanted to have the shop assistant lead the girl upstairs, but the girl said she didn't need it. She didn't seem to know what she was in such a hurry for and rushed upstairs."
"Later, the commoner thought more and more that it was not right. What if something unexpected happened in that room again Then this inn of mine would really be unsaleable."
After hesitating for a moment, the commoner ordered the shop assistant to go upstairs and have a look.
"But for some reason, the shop assistant hadn't even taken a few steps before that girl shouted 'Get out!' at him."
"As you know, sir, I'm a commoner who runs a shop to make a living. I wouldn't offend any customers for the sake of money. When the errand boy came down, I didn't intend to let him try again."
But after a short while, the young woman came down herself and asked me a very strange question.
Yun Si narrowed his eyes slightly, "What do you mean"
She actually asked the commoner where this place was. The commoner thought she was joking, so he told her the name of the inn, and then the girl walked out on her own.
"As for what happened next, I suppose you're well aware, sir. The moment the young lady left, you arrived."
The shopkeeper finished speaking, and the shop assistant beside him immediately nodded in agreement. They were both telling the truth.
If this grown-up still doesn't believe it, they really don't know what to do.
After listening, Yun Si did not immediately state his position, nor did he say whether he believed it or not, nor did he mention what he planned to do next.
The more this happened, the more worried the shopkeeper and the shop assistants became, completely unsure what their fate held next.
Just as the two were apprehensive, the subordinate who had earlier left with the physician returned alone. He whispered a few words in Yun Si's ear, and Yun Si's eyes narrowed slightly. He hummed in response, "Return to the estate."
After saying that, he and his men simply turned around and left without even glancing at the two who were still agonizing over their fate, waiting for the verdict.
Until the clouds obscured their figures completely, the shopkeeper was still somewhat disbelieving.
He and the shop assistant's eyes were both fixed on the doorway, waiting until their eyes were sore before they came to their senses. The two looked at each other, both with an incredible disbelief in their eyes.
The shopkeeper pursed his lips, swallowed hard, and said, “This... this is all And then what”
The shop assistant was even more confused. He just felt like his head was in a daze, so how could he possibly know what was going on
Faced with the inquiry from his own shopkeeper, he could only shake his head after hearing it.
The shopkeeper scrambled to his feet and carefully walked to the door. He peered out, making sure Cloud Four and the others were nowhere in sight before hurriedly shutting the door.
After turning his head, he said to the shopkeeper, “You go tell that man today, sell it for the price he offered, I’m selling this inn.”
It's a loss, but it's a loss. He's really scared of this rundown inn. If he doesn't sell it soon, he's afraid the next person to die here will be him.
He is the innkeeper, and also the host. It's just that over the past few years, something happened at the inn, so he personally took on the role of innkeeper to save some money.ocked onto hers, as if scrutinizing whether she was telling the truth.His obsidian eyes, every time they stared at her like this, made her feel as if all her little secrets were laid bare before him.B...
