Chapter 31 Something Happened
The next day at noon, Zuixianlou.
Compared to yesterday when it was packed with martial artists, Zuixianlou today is much more normal.
Although there were still a few martial artists with swords in their hands eating, the majority were residents from the surrounding area.
At this time, Aji was busy running around, greeting guests.
Although he was in the inn, his mind had already flown away.
What happened with that loud noise last night?
Is it true, as Wang Ye said, that other inns in the city were implicated?
What is the result?
This series of questions appeared in Aji's mind, just like there were twenty-five mice in it, making him feel anxious.
"Oh my god, I'm starving!"
Just when Aji was extremely absent-minded, a familiar voice was heard.
Following the sound, I saw Captain Zhao walk in quickly, find a table and sit down, and say, "Boss, give me a bowl of pork intestine noodles, with more spicy sauce."
"Hey, isn't this Captain Zhao?"
Hearing what Captain Zhao said, Wang Ye, who was half dead at the counter, moved and walked over quickly: "Don't you usually eat at the Yuelai Inn near the government office?"
"Why did you come to our store this time?"
As he spoke, Wang Ye's face was full of flattery.
Seeing this scene, Aji also pricked up his ears.
He wanted to get some information from Captain Zhao's conversation to satisfy his curiosity.
"Don't mention it!"
Captain Zhao slapped his thigh and said helplessly, "I don't know what went wrong with the owner of the Yuelai Inn last night. He usually closes the shop at 15:30 on weekdays, but last night he insisted on keeping the shop open until 15:25 on midnight!"
"This is terrible! Not only was the whole family killed, but even the house was burned to charcoal!"
As he spoke, Captain Zhao sighed: "What a pity for his beautiful wife... What a pity for the inn he worked so hard for!"
"The Yuelai Inn was burned to charcoal?"
Hearing this, Wang Ye sighed in a fake manner: "Alas, I have always had a good relationship with them, what a pity..."
"Bah, shameless!"
Looking at Wang Ye's fake sigh, Aji thought secretly in his heart.
Just to accuse Yuelai Inn of stealing business, Aji has heard Wang Ye say this more than once.
Looking at Wang Ye's regretful expression, Aji felt extremely disgusted.
But even though he disliked him, Aji still looked at Wang Ye with a new respect.
Although Wang Ye, this old loser, is timid and afraid of trouble, he has never encountered any major problems in making major decisions.
It was Wang Ye who closed the shop early last night. Otherwise , the accident might have happened here.
"It's a pity indeed, that young lady..."
At this time, Captain Zhao sighed, and after realizing that something was wrong, he changed the subject : "The pig intestine noodles are really good!"
"Understood. I'll make you some pork intestine noodles right now. I promise it's as good as the one at Yuelai Inn!"
As he spoke, Wang Ye gave Ah Ji a kick and said, "What are you standing there for? Go to the kitchen and tell Chen Chong to serve Captain Zhao a bowl of pork intestine noodles. Tell him to put more pork intestines and some chili in it!"
"knew!"
After being kicked by Wang Ye, Aji threw the sweat towel over his shoulders and walked lazily towards the kitchen.
A moment later, a bowl of fragrant pig intestine noodles filled with pig intestines was brought up by Aji.
"Captain Zhao, please enjoy your pork intestine noodles."
“Let me have a taste!”
Looking at the pig intestine noodles in front of him, Captain Zhao picked up his chopsticks and took a bite.
"Yes, Not Bad!"
After taking a bite of the pig intestine noodles, Captain Zhao's eyes lit up: "The pig intestines are braised just right, fatty but not greasy, fragrant but not spicy, and the noodles are chewy and springy, very good!"
“As long as you eat well”
Seeing the satisfied look on Captain Zhao's face, Ah Ji smiled and said, "Captain Zhao, I have one more question for you."
"Why was this Yuelai Inn burned to charcoal?"
Although he had already guessed most of it in his heart, Aji still wanted to confirm it himself.
"It's not complicated..."
Captain Zhao was obviously in a good mood. He lowered his voice and said, "The Fire Monkey has appeared. All the martial arts masters have gone to Tiger Hill to snatch the Fire Monkey. The person who got the Fire Monkey stayed at Yuelai Inn, attracting Duofang to hunt him down..."
"We dug out more than twenty bodies from the rubble this morning!"
"More than twenty..."
Aji was stunned and extremely shocked.
"Keep your voice down!"
Without waiting for Ah Ji to shout, Captain Zhao covered Ah Ji's mouth and said, "If I hadn't seen you kill the thief before and brought honor to the government, I wouldn't have dared to tell you about this!"
"Don't spread rumors! The news is strictly blocked now, and we don't even know about it!"
Hearing this, Aji nodded, his eyes still full of shock.
More than twenty bodies were dug out from the ruins!
Just this one sentence is enough to illustrate how tragic the situation was in Yuelai Inn last night.
While being shocked, Aji looked at Wang Ye and couldn't help but feel some admiration in his heart.
This old loser Wang Ye actually has some stuff.
Twenty people from the martial arts world died in Yuelai Inn. If I come here, I may not be able to handle it!
"Don't talk nonsense!"
At this time, Captain Zhao gave some instructions, then lowered his head and ate the noodles in big mouthfuls.
"Uh-huh"
Ah Ji nodded and continued, "Who has the fire monkey now?"
Now Aji suddenly became concerned about the whereabouts of the fire monkey.
However, before Captain Zhao could answer.
Aji only felt a pain on his head. He turned around and saw Wang Ye standing behind him.
"Little bastard, hurry up and greet the guests, and don't ask questions that you shouldn't ask!"
Wang Ye looked at Aji with impatience, his words full of warnings.
“It’s okay, it’s not a secret.”
Looking at Wang Ye's appearance, Captain Zhao smiled and said, "I don't know where the Fire Monkey is, but I know he definitely hasn't left Jinling City?!"
Captain Zhao revealed his confidence in his words.
"why?"
Aji was puzzled.
"Why?"
Seeing He Ji's puzzled expression, Captain Zhao sneered and said, "Go to the four walls of Jinling City and take a look. There are more martial artists and gangs outside the city than there are detectives and soldiers inside the city!"
"Bringing the fire monkey out at this time is almost like seeking death!"
As he spoke, Captain Zhao picked up the bowl and ate all the noodles.
"full!"
Putting down the big bowl in his hand, Captain Zhao sighed: "I didn't realize that your chef's cooking skills are really good. From now on, I will eat lunch here!"
As he said that, Captain Zhao put down a few large coins, stood up and walked out the door.
“Get to work!”
Just as Ah Ji was looking at Captain Zhao's back, Wang Ye raised his hand and slapped him: "That's a big, strong man, not a gorgeous beauty. What are you looking at?"
"Wang Pi Pi"
After being slapped hard by Wang Ye, Aji muttered in a low voice.
