Randomly pick a stand-in every day

However, it really didn't matter how people reacted to this. The crowd waiting in line outside the city gate to pass the security check was not surprised at all that such a monster mixed into the line, and everything was as usual.

This is naturally the pair of glasses on the face of this big potato is playing a role~

Under the effect of ordinary glasses that can make the "person" wearing them look very ordinary, everyone naturally accepted the status quo of this unknown creature strutting on the street without raising any doubts.

The two of them walked towards the city gate like this. Luo Li was dressed in a functional black suit with a cowboy hat, Yu Jianfei was a certain prosecutor's serious wine red suit, wearing an unpainted slender Chang Tudou, the image of the whole group is out of place in this Western Region, attracting a high rate of return——

However, if you insist on saying that there is something wrong with their outfit, you can't find any thorns. After all, they are not "indecent" and have no yellow belts. Naturally, there is nothing to wear.

So it's strange, the guards put them in after questioning a few words, and even after seeing the token of Apple Pie and knowing that the two came to help, they still respectfully invited them in...

This experience is really the first time.

Thinking about this in his mind, Raleigh went into the city and took a look around. There was nothing worth mentioning. It was similar to the set of the costume movie in his impression—of course, this must be a specially made early martial arts movie, not a later one. Costume "idol" drama (

However, not far from the city gate, you can see a board for pasting notices. As soon as you saw this iconic ancient information announcement office, Yu Jianfei immediately moved over, and Raleigh quickly followed.

There are some news related to the season on the notice, several arrest warrants with indescribable styles, and the most conspicuous one is the content related to the case:

Someone has gone missing in the city recently, everyone should be careful, don't go out casually at night, report any clues immediately, if there is a reward or something... There is nothing new, and there is very little information.

"What's the next step?"

Seeing no more information from above, Raleigh looked to the professional (presumably) at hand for advice on how to begin his investigation.

"From the reaction of the officers and soldiers to the letter just now... I am more inclined to contact the government directly. From our standpoint, we are considered to be our own people who came to help, and we will definitely be able to get basic reception and information. We can also confirm that the little junior sister is now What's the situation."

To be honest, they don't even know what happened to the mission target now. The speed of news transmission in ancient times is slow, so maybe it's entirely possible that people just simply sent the letter and didn't send it back...

"Well, it's reasonable, but after all, the two of us are a bit conspicuous in appearance, and there is still a possibility of being wary. I think we can go to another place first."

Straightening his hat, Raleigh made a different point of view.

"where?"

"The restaurant."

"Ok?"

"It's written like this in the book. When you inquire about news, you always go to the teahouse and restaurant first. How can you go directly to the government?"

Raleigh spread his arms and said confidently.

"Ah?"

While speaking, Luo Li took out a few taels of silver from his backpack and dunked it in his hand. Apple sent someone to handle the errands, so it must be given a little living expenses.

"...It seems to make sense, that's fine, let's go."

Yu Jianfei couldn't find any loopholes, and it just so happened that it was almost lunch time, so it was time to eat something - wouldn't it be embarrassing to go to the Yamen at this time, what if someone happens to be eating?

"Okay, let me find someone to find out where the biggest restaurant in this place is..."

After more than ten minutes, the two looked at the building named [Dragon Inn], and wondered if they had gone to the wrong set again.

"Why...is this?"

"Whether it is in terms of time or geographical location, will it be too crooked?"

PS: A relatively peaceful chapter, probably.

Chapter 309 Congratulations, I Found It

Although I can't understand how an inn near Guangdong in the Ming Dynasty opened in the Western Regions, but after all, there was no preemptive registration of trademarks in ancient times, and no one can be blamed for the duplication of names, so the two of them are so high-profile walked in--

The high-profile here mainly refers to their attire, which is too inappropriate for this era, and it has attracted the attention of the people around them before they are seated.

The two didn't care about this state of being surrounded by people, and directly found an empty seat to sit down. After the waiter came over, they ordered a few dishes at random and began to wait.

"By the way, there aren't many types of dishes."

After the shop waiter turned his back and left, Raleigh went to Yu Jianfei's side and complained in a low voice.

"After all, it is ancient times, and the crops are not so complete, and the ingredients can only be what can be produced by the surrounding generation... It is best not to expect too much in terms of taste. Although the quality of the ingredients themselves may be better, the seasoning is better than the It’s far worse now.”

After taking a sip of tea, Yu Jianfei said so, and began to listen to the conversations of the people around him:

"...Hey, Senior Brother, I heard that there is a case here. The government seems to have been looking for someone to help. Why don't we go and have a look?"

"Don't, so many decent masters from other people's families have not tossed about here to achieve results. Let's go the wild way of the rivers and lakes. It's better not to mess around. Let's leave as soon as possible."

……

"Who are those people posted on the most wanted warrant recently? I haven't heard of them before."

"I don't know, but my cousin's second uncle, who is an officer and soldier, said that these are gangsters roaming around, and none of them are fuel-efficient lights! I'm so scared that I dare not go out..."

"What are you afraid of, there are quite a few knight-errants in our place now, and with your few dollars, who would be able to take a fancy to you?"

"Hey?! You kid..."

……

"Why hasn't the troupe at the top of the city come out these two days? Could it be that he has already left?"

"Now you don't know something. I heard that there are fewer people there. The girl who played the piano has disappeared. I'm afraid everyone is busy looking for it now!"

"Ah, the case hasn't been solved yet? Hey, these days are really not peaceful..."

"Hey, God knows how long we'll go. Let me guess, there must be some kind of treasure out of this place. Otherwise, why would so many gangsters gather in this desert?"

"What kind of treasure can be used in this place? Alas, it's just a pity that this play can't be heard... I hope nothing happens to people."

…………

It can be heard that the case has indeed begun to have a certain impact, although it is far from the point of panic, but after a round stop, four or five tables have mentioned related matters.

From the looks of it, seven days have passed since the government summoned people from all over the world to assist. The case has not yet been resolved, and there may even be new cases. It seems that it is indeed not a small problem...

Keeping all the news he heard silently in his heart, Yu Jianfei began to imagine possible situations in his mind, thinking ahead of time how to negotiate with the government officials later.

On the other side, Raleigh was rummaging through the wrapping bag given by Apple Pie, looking for something in it:

"Speaking of which, we don't even know what the person we're looking for looks like. We just heard the name, and then we know it's a woman."

"This is not a problem. She should have taken over with the government. We just need to ask and we will know."

"Yes... Well, although there is no reason, I always feel that it will not be that simple."

Yu Jian's analysis was well-founded, but Raleigh intuitively had the idea that it was impossible to ask so easily.

"It's better to give some reasons and evidence... Well, what is this in your hand?"

"I also just discovered that this seems to be...a painting?"

While talking, Luo Li turned out a piece of yellow paper from the bottom of the cloth bag that he hadn't noticed before, opened it and saw that it was a figure painting in ink and wash, and the words [Lei Liaoan] were marked on the side. name.

Speaking of which, it doesn't really sound like a girl's name, it's weird...

"Portrait, so you prepared a portrait for us? That's right, you usually have to bring something like this when looking for someone."

The two immediately checked, trying to figure out what kind of person they were looking for...

Ok……

Brain supplement failed?_?

Alas, what a wooden way, this picture is completely in the style of classical Chinese painting, freehand brushwork is better than shape, perhaps it is true that many characters should be considered, but for people who are used to modern styles, they really can't imagine what it corresponds to. What a face.

After all, this thing was drawn with pure black ink, and even wrote a [red] on the hair and pointed it with an arrow, it was very grassy.

"As early as when I was reading history textbooks, I wanted to complain. Was the drawing like this back then?"

"...This is not my major, I don't know."

The two of them stared at the painting in silence for a while, feeling that the degree of restoration of this thing might not be much better than the arrest warrants in the notice.

Just at this time, the waiter came to serve the food and saw the painting in their hands:

"Three guests, the roast duck is here."

"Oh, thanks!"

"Guest officer, how many of you are looking for someone?"

"That's right, hey Xiao Er, have you ever seen a person like this in the painting?"

Someone came over, so don’t ask, don’t ask, Luo Li passed the painting over and put it in front of the waiter in the shop—I want to serve food and keep accounts in this kind of big restaurant, and deal with so many customers all day long. Maybe people really asked the right question.

"Um……"

Xiao Er stared at the picture for a second, then hesitated for a moment, then pointed to a corner of the restaurant:

"Three masters, isn't the person you drew... right over there?"

"what?!"

Raleigh was greatly shocked, and turned his head to look at the direction Xiao Er was pointing at. There was indeed an apple-red haired woman sitting in the corner facing the two of them, as if she was not walking with anyone.

"That was a very beautiful girl, and she came here alone, so I remember it well."

"...Go and see."

Luo Li and Yu Jianfei immediately got up and walked over there, leaving behind an imitator to say hello to Xiao Er, which made the part-time worker a little at a loss.

At the same time, Raleigh went directly to the woman and sat down, asking:

"Excuse me, girl, I dare to ask you, but Apple..."

"Well?"

The girl was not shy when she heard the voice and saw a man approaching to talk to him. She raised her head to look at Raleigh, and met his eyes directly.

And such a pair——Rowley was dumbfounded on the spot.

"I c...?!"

Taking a step back, he almost slipped off the chair. Raleigh's exaggerated move startled the girl, and he quickly checked his face to see if there was anything on his face.
