Chen Jue went straight upstairs as soon as he entered the restaurant.
The waiter looked at this old man. Although the color of his clothes was simple,
The texture was very top-notch.
He had been here for so long..,
This bit of eyesight had been trained.
Then, he looked at Chen Jue's gloomy expression,
He was even more careful,
He didn't ask any more questions,
He led Chen Jue upstairs.
Wang Yi followed Chen Jue upstairs, and his gaze swept across the entire restaurant like lightning.
His cool face could still play a deterrent role at this time.
After all..,
The others present..,
Did not know that Wang Yi was actually a gentle person.
Many diners saw that Chen Jue and his group did not come with good intentions,
They all packed their food and went home to eat.
They went up to the second floor,
Chen Jue saw the middle-aged man sitting by the window on the second floor at a glance.
His face was full of vigor. His eyes were narrowed as he chewed on peanuts and looked out of the window. His eyes were full of irritation.
Chen Jue walked to Liu Tongren's table in a few steps and sat down without any hesitation.
The waiter wiped his hands on his apron in a somewhat reserved manner. "Aiyo,
This old man - "
Wang Yi took out a string of copper coins from his pocket and stuffed it into the waiter's hand,
He waved his hand.
The waiter immediately understood,
This old man had something to do in their restaurant.
He bowed his head and bowed twice,
The waiter hurriedly put his handkerchief on his shoulder,
Then, he ran downstairs to report to his boss.
Liu Tongren turned around and saw Chen Jue. As Liu Tianping's foreign affairs butler, he naturally recognized Chen Jue.
If it was in the past, he would have stood up and bowed, flattering Chen Jue.
But at this moment, Liu Tongren was a little hot-headed because of the wine.
In addition, these days, the people around him had disappeared one by one and died one by one. His nerves were too tense, and he was always worried that he would not have a tomorrow. He was a little determined and panicked.
He looked at Chen Jue and smiled.
"Lord Chen, what brings you here?
Don't tell me you want to eat this humble one's wine? "
Chen Jue looked at him coldly. He didn't have the patience to see him make a fool of himself.
He could have directly asked Wang Yi to bring Liu Tongren back, but he didn't want to interrogate everyone in the House of Liu like prisoners.
Even if he never cared about the thoughts and feelings of others, he still had some feelings for the people in the Dali Monastery.
Only then did he personally come over to sit with Liu Tongren.
He looked at Liu Tongren's unusual reaction and looked at him playfully.
He thought that perhaps he would really gain something from this trip.
"What did Wang Ju want from you a few days ago?" Chen Jue picked up an empty teacup and poured himself a drink.
Liu Tongren stared straight at Jue Chen's hand. He was a little drunk at first glance.
He suddenly drank another cup of wine and looked up at Chen Jue. The corner of his mouth twitched coldly, "Lord Chen … Lord Chen … Haha, since I entered the Dali Monastery, there has been no unsolved case … Hmph, you're just a child, what do you know about investigating cases?
I worked hard for half my life, and I'll let you — "
Wang Yi frowned. He couldn't listen to him anymore. His face was fierce and he was about to teach Liu Tongren a lesson.
Chen Jue waved his hand and looked at Liu Tongren coldly. He wasn't angry.
For a drunk loser, what was there to be angry about?
"Is that so?
Liu Tianping thinks so too? "Chen Jue narrowed his eyes and tapped his finger on the table.
Liu Tongren laughed recklessly. He looked especially crazy in front of Chen Jue.
He grabbed the wine pot in front of him and drank two mouthfuls.
He had always been afraid of Jue Chen. Now that he was facing him, the effects of the alcohol kicked in. Instead, he pretended to be fearless and said arrogantly, "I am a person who is about to die. Do you think I am afraid of you?
Hahahaha … "
Chen Jue looked at him and said indifferently, "What, you're a dying man?"
"Young master is crazy … crazy …" Liu Tongren was stunned. He suddenly fell on the chair and cried, "My poor part … My Miao 'er … My Miao' er …"
He cried sincerely and was extremely sad.
Chen Jue frowned and turned to look at Wang Yi. Wang Yi thought for a while before he found the information in his mind. He leaned over and whispered in Chen Jue's ear, "It's Liu Tongren's daughter. He only had one daughter in his life and she served Lady Liu in the residence.
She went missing a few days ago … and couldn't be found. "
Looking at Liu Tongren's appearance, Chen Jue immediately understood.
Perhaps Liu Tongren's daughter was the first victim.
She was working in the House of Liu. Even if she died, she could only suppress it.
"Why do you think you're going to die?" Wang Yi slapped the table and asked.
Liu Tongren sobbed and stared blankly at the wine pot in front of him. He raised it and took another sip before he murmured, "Before Wang Ju died, he received a note … saying … saying that he followed the wrong master.
The next day … he went missing.
Now it seems that he must have been killed by young master after that. "
Chen Jue frowned.
"Note?"
Liu Tongren fished out a piece of paper that he had crumpled, unfolded, and crumpled countless times.
He put the note on the table and murmured blankly, "The next one will be me … it will be me … I can't escape … young master has become an evil spirit and won't let me go …"
Chen Jue frowned. He couldn't understand. If it was Liu Rui, why would he tell his father's advisor that he had followed the wrong master?
This … but … could it be that there was another person in this world who could turn a living person into a mummy?
Liu Rui … the capital was only so big, where could he hide …
Just as he was thinking, Liu Tongren suddenly stood up and roared like a madman. He pushed his hands against the windowsill and threw himself out of the window with his head facing down.
"Ah — —" No matter how good Wang Yi's skills were, in his panic, he could only grab air.
Chen Jue stood up in shock. His heart sank, but when he looked out, he saw — —
Liu Tongren, who should have fallen to the ground and been injured or even killed, was now floating in the air. His eyes were wide open and he was struggling in fear as if he had seen an evil spirit.
The two Dali Monastery guards who were waiting downstairs couldn't help but walk to the middle of the road and look up at Liu Tongren. They were so shocked that they didn't know what to do.
The pedestrians on the road all stopped in their tracks. Some were shocked, some shouted, and some even called their friends over to watch.
"Sir — —" Wang Yi looked at the person floating in the air in shock. He couldn't help but look around. Everyone seemed to be watching in fear. No one made him feel strange.
He turned his head and called out to Chen Jue in confusion.
But just as Wang Yi's voice fell, Liu Tongren fell to the ground with a "bang". He fell from a height of one meter, so it was only painful.
Chen Jue's face was fierce. He saw that Liu Tongren was scared witless and frantically crawling across the road on all fours. He said to the guards downstairs, "Catch him and bring him back."
Even if it was to protect Liu Tongren, he couldn't let him wander around.
The guards downstairs responded and held Liu Tongren down. They dispersed the onlookers and shouted, "It's a trick to scare people. What are you looking at? Disperse!"
Chen Jue retracted his body and turned to go to the private room on the second floor.
He kicked open the door of the first private room — —
"Hey, who are you?"
"Don't go!
What are you doing … Are you crazy …? "
Chen Jue turned and went to the second private room.
Wang Yi and the waiter were busy comforting the people who rushed out of the first private room. One of them shouted with a fierce face, "The officials are here to arrest him. Go back and eat your meal!"
"Hey, hey, don't be angry. They are the officials. The officials …" The waiter said.
He kicked open the door of the second private room — —
"Hey!
Who is it? "
"Eh?
Isn't this the Iron Mask King of Hell, Lord Chen … "Encountering a leisurely marquis and seeing Jue Chen who was extremely easily angered, he actually had some thoughts of teasing him — even though in front of Jue Chen, he didn't take advantage of him even once and was scolded every time.
But the more he fought, the braver he became.
Chen Jue only glanced at him and then turned to go to the third private room.
Wang Yi was behind Chen Jue and said to the Master Hou, "Master Hou, you're in a good mood …"
Seeing that the Master Hou was about to catch up with Lord Chen, Wang Yi hurriedly blocked the Master Hou's way again. "Master Hou, please wait … Yes, yes, Lord Chen is working on a case.
Yes, yes, yes, I will definitely do it for you … Yes, yes. "
…
After kicking open the door of the third private room, Chen Jue's pupils shrank and he glared at Li Yu with some annoyance.
"Why are you here?" Chen Jue's gaze was sharp and stern.
Li Yu had one hand on the windowsill and the other holding the chopsticks. He seemed to be eating happily.
When he saw Chen Jue come in, he was not surprised.
Seeing Chen Jue's anger, he didn't get angry. Instead, he smiled and said, "It's fine.
"Lord Chen, are you crazy about handling cases? Are you suspicious of everyone?"
"…" Chen Jue stared at him sternly like a teacher from the Imperial College.
Li Yu smiled helplessly. "There's a good courtyard nearby. I just came to take a look. I still have to eat …"
He pointed at his feet. This was a restaurant. It was a welcoming place. It was normal for anyone to come here.
Chen Jue frowned and pondered for a moment. He took a deep breath and said, "Don't mess around. It's not safe in the city recently. There's no hurry to look for a house. Why don't you stay in the residence for a while?"
Li Yu smiled. His smile was insufferably arrogant, as if to say, 'Who in this world can do anything to me?'
Chen Jue thought of his skills just now. He pursed his lips and snorted, not saying anything else.
Li Yu shook his head slightly. He happened to be eating here and saw someone jump off a building. Was it wrong to save someone?
Chen Jue did not pester him anymore. He glanced at the half-eaten food on Li Yu's table and wanted to leave.
"I still have something to do, so I'll take my leave first." After Chen Jue said that, he turned around and left. He acted like the wind and did not give Li Yu a chance to ask him to stay.
Li Yu stood in the private room on the second floor and looked indifferently at the open door. Chen Jue's figure disappeared … He did not move for a long time.
The waiter walked up to Li Yu and considered whether to close the door for Li Yu. After thinking for a while, he smiled and said, "Sir, do you want to continue eating?"
The smile on Li Yu's face had long disappeared. At this moment, his face was solemn and dignified.
