Chapter 197 The Case
After eating and drinking, the few people planned to go upstairs to rest. After all, they had driven for a day, and even if they took a carriage, they were very tired.

Suddenly, the shopkeeper secretly raised his head and glanced at the few people from time to time, acting as if hesitating to speak.

Song Yu noticed the strange appearance of the shopkeeper, so he went up and asked, "Shopkeeper, do you have something to say?"

The shopkeeper was startled when he saw Song Yu, lowered his head in panic, waved his hands quickly, and stammered while shaking his head: "No, no, nothing, nothing."

When a few people saw the shopkeeper, they knew that he must have a ghost.

Song Yu threw the sword in front of him, and asked again with a half-smile: "Are you all right?"

The shopkeeper was a little scared, and tried to move the sword slightly away with his hand. After wiping off a cold sweat, his voice trembled: "Guest, guest officer, the sword has no eyes, so be careful."

Seeing that the shopkeeper was about to pee in fright, Zhao Qingluo chuckled lightly and said slowly, "Song Yu, don't scare him."

After the shopkeeper wiped off his cold sweat again, he cast a grateful look at her, nodded like a chicken pecking at rice, and said in a trembling voice: "Yes, yes, this girl is right."

Song Yu took back the sword, kept wiping it, and looked at the shopkeeper with a half-smile: "It depends on your sincerity?"

The shopkeeper wanted to cry, but he was defeated in the end: "I said, is it still okay?"

Seeing this, several people looked at each other.

The shopkeeper really has a ghost.

The shopkeeper looked at them with flattering eyes, and made a gesture of invitation: "Sit here, let me speak slowly."

After finding a corner to sit down, the shopkeeper was still hesitating.

After a while, he seemed to have made up his mind, and memories fell into his eyes.

"Just a few days ago, a murderous maniac appeared in our Yucheng. That man came out day and night to attack you outsiders. In the past few days, dozens of murders have occurred. This last murder is In my Tongfu Inn."

Having said that, the shopkeeper raised his head and glanced at several people.

At this time, Zhao Qingluo finally understood why this place was so deserted, so she was afraid of being scared away, after all, who knew if she would be the next one.

This shopkeeper is really a black-hearted businessman. He knew that this murderous maniac was only targeting them outsiders, so he didn't remind them at the beginning. If Song Yu hadn't threatened him, he might not have opened his mouth. That's right, if he was timid I'm afraid that he will leave as soon as he hears about this matter, so what kind of money does the shopkeeper make?

Song Yu at the side gave the shopkeeper a hard look, seeing his eyes, the shopkeeper couldn't help but shiver.

Xie Yiqing said coldly: "Continue"

"Yes Yes Yes"

The shopkeeper continued, and he carefully glanced at Zhao Qingluo who was beside him: "All the dead are women, and they are all young and beautiful girls, just like this girl."

"It is said that the murderous maniac is also a flower picker, so he specially picked these young and beautiful girls."

After finishing speaking, the shopkeeper reminded: "You guys have to pay attention at night, especially this girl."

As soon as he heard that it was dedicated to killing women, Xie Yiqing couldn't help but glanced at Zhao Qingluo next to him, a trace of worry flashed in his eyes.

As for Zhao Qingluo, she was naturally scared after hearing this.

【Ding! The 908 system is at your service. 】

[Dididi!The task is being issued, drop!Download complete. 】

【Mission Five: The Hidden Truth】

[The time limit for the task is five days, please complete it as soon as possible. 】

Suddenly, the voice of the system remembered, and then issued a task.

I haven't been online for so long, and now I suddenly went online again, Zhao Qingluo didn't react for a while.

But isn't this task making things difficult for her?

They were going to Fuxi County, so it was impossible to stay for this matter.

Hey, what should I do?
She had a bitter face, not knowing what to do.

Xie Yiqing yelled, "Luoluo, let's go."

"oh oh"

It turned out that at some point, the shopkeeper had already left.

Xie Yiqing said with a serious face: "You will sleep in the same room with me later."

This is also for the sake of safety, after all, the shopkeeper said that the murderer only picks young women.

It is impossible to leave here. After all, the night is dark, and it may be even more unsafe to travel at night, so I have no choice but to pass the night. I just hope that this night will be passed safely.

Zhao Qingluo said shyly, "Ah, this is not good."

Xie Yiqing said helplessly: "I am doing this for your safety, what are you thinking?"

At some point, Song Yu had disappeared, but Zhao Qingluo didn't notice it at all, which proved how long she had been in a daze.

After a long time, she realized it belatedly, and asked Xie Yiqing with some doubts: "Where is Song Yu?"

Xie Yi said calmly: "He has his own affairs to do."

After arriving at the room.

Zhao Qingluo pointed to the soft couch in front of her, and said hastily, "I'll sleep on this couch."

Xie Yiqing said, "As you wish."

Seeing that he didn't say anything, Zhao Qingluo felt relieved. It seemed that she was really worried about her safety and had no other thoughts.

After a day of exhaustion, the two of them packed up and planned to take a rest.

Tonight is destined to be a sleepless night.

Zhao Qing was lying on the soft couch with her clothes down. Since she had slept during the day, she couldn't fall asleep at this time, but Xie Yiqing on the bed fell asleep quickly, and there was a steady breathing sound.

Just facing the past is a window, a full moon hangs high in the sky, and the moonlight shines in through the window.

Looking at the full moon, Zhao Qingluo unconsciously felt sleepy, she yawned unconsciously, and her consciousness soon fell into darkness.

At this time, the lights were still on downstairs, and the shopkeeper looked at the full moon outside worriedly, and then heaved a heavy sigh.

It's another full moon, I don't know if another girl will be killed by that beast.

The shopkeeper raised his head and glanced worriedly at a certain room on the third floor.

In fact, what he just said was adulterated. This case happened not only a few days ago, but more precisely, it should have been a year ago, and the murderer only picked the night of the full moon to attack women from the countryside.

Although the lord Guan has been working hard to order people to investigate this case, the murderer is very cunning. No, it has been a year, and there is no trace of the murderer.

Those of them who are from Yucheng naturally don't have to worry about being killed. After all, the murderer only picked out foreigners, but those outsiders are not necessarily the same. In order to prevent this from spreading, no one is willing to come to Yucheng again. , he ordered the people in the city not to spread this matter, so at first the shopkeeper hesitated for a long time and refused to tell them.

Well, I just hope these young people can get away with it tonight.
