After traveling through time, the four best friends were all targeted by the boss

Faced with Meng Yin's teasing, Xiao Xian was a little at a loss. He didn't expect that a girl would bring up such a private matter.

Xia Nian walked up to him and said, "Mr. Xiao, I'm sorry, Yinyin has been like this since she was a child, don't worry about it."

Xiao Xian touched his slightly red ears and nodded: "Okay..."

Just as I was about to go in, a plainclothes man suddenly flew down from the right.

"Lord Xiao." He called out, and his eyes indicated that it was not appropriate to talk here.

Xiao Xian nodded, handed Xia Nian and the other three to the mansion's steward Wang, and told him to treat them with courtesy.

After Xiao Xian left, Butler Wang asked the servant to take their things and brought them to the courtyard.

The yard is very large, with rockery, trees, pavilions, corridors, bridges and flowing water.

But there are very few servants, probably because they don’t live there very often.

"Girls, please live in these rooms. They are all well maintained," he said.

This yard is very nice, and there are many green bamboos planted in the garden.

"Thank you, Butler Wang." Xia Nian said gently.

"You're welcome, young lady." Butler Wang leaned forward slightly and stepped out.

"Xiahou Yu's arrangement is really thoughtful!" Xu Zheng exclaimed.

"Well, Young Master Xiahou has indeed helped a lot since we came to this world." Xia Nian said, reaching out and stroking the fresh flowers.

"Then let's go in and pack up first." Tao Tao said, took the things from the servant and trotted into the house.

"Taozi has been obsessed with medical books recently!" Xu Zheng couldn't help but sigh as he looked at her back.

Meng Yin smiled and said, "Taozi is like this. Once she sets her mind on something, she will go all out to do it."

Xia Nian gently grabbed Meng Yin's neck and said, "Yin Yin, learn this. Don't gossip about this and that every day."

Meng Yin shrank her neck and escaped from her clutches: "Haha, I don't want to listen!"

Xia Nian and Xu Zheng looked at each other and shook their heads helplessly.

In the afternoon, Xia Nian and Meng Yin went to the street to find out the situation.

The two walked into the jewelry store and picked out a few items they liked.

The proprietress happily packed them up for them. She liked girls like these who didn't bargain the most.

Xia Nian said softly, "Madam Boss, hasn't the murderer in Ziyang City been caught recently?"

When the proprietress heard her ask this, she immediately started talking: "Not yet! Little girls, you don't know how hateful that murderer is!"

Meng Yin came forward and said, "Didn't they say that the murderer was a woman? Could she have escaped? And I heard that she only kills people who are in love with each other. Is that true?"

The lady boss waved her hands and said, "No, you two girls are not from here, right? Previously, some rich people were killed and their money was stolen. During that time, everyone was in a panic, especially since that guy not only killed people! He also... would defile unmarried girls!"

The proprietress stretched her neck, her expression full of disgust towards the murderer.

"What?" The two looked at each other. If the murderer violated a girl, it meant that the murderer was not a woman. Then was there something wrong with He Fu's statement or...

"After that, the government couldn't catch him. No one knew what that guy was capable of, and no one knew why. He stopped targeting rich people and only targeted young men and women! Do you think he was a beast?" The proprietress was filled with indignation and couldn't help but slap the counter.

"He just started killing rich people and harassing girls, and then he killed some young men and women." Xia Nian analyzed it, she looked at Meng Yin and said in a low voice: "Could it be that they are not the same murderer?"

Meng Yin nodded: "I think it's possible."

"Thank you, boss lady. We'll come back to buy jewelry here some other time!" She turned her head and smiled sweetly.

The proprietress nodded in approval, and the two of them walked out of the jewelry store arm in arm.

"The boss lady didn't say that the murderer only killed young couples. Could He Fu be wrong?" Meng Yin asked doubtfully.

Xia Nian nodded, his expression a little serious: "I think it's possible, but I think it's a bit weird."

"What's wrong?" Meng Yin asked.

"I can't explain it now. I feel like something is blocked in my heart and I have a bad feeling." Xia Nian said with a frown.

Meng Yin shuddered: "Oh my god, is something bad really going to happen?"

Xia Nian's intuition has always been accurate. When she said this, Meng Yin suddenly felt something was wrong.

"I don't know either. Let's go back first. Xiahou Yu and the others must have more clues than us." Xia Nian said.

"it is good."

-

He Fu treated everyone to dinner. Because he was there, Meng Yin and Xia Nianxian did not tell them what they had found out in the afternoon.

"Mr. Xiahou, are you free later?" Xia Nian turned around and asked.

Xiahou Yu was stunned for a moment, then said, "I'm free, what happened?"

Xia Nian nodded, "There is something I want to talk to Master Xiahou alone."

Xiao Xian's hand holding the chopsticks obviously paused. He glanced at the two of them with his hands trembling slightly.

"Okay, let's talk while we walk." Xiahou Yu curled up the corners of his mouth, and even his eyebrows were filled with smiles.

He Fu quickly swept his sharp eyes over the two of them, and immediately returned to his elegant appearance.

After dinner, Xiahou Yu asked Xiao Xian to protect Meng Yin and the other two, while he and Xia Nian left the restaurant first.

"It's abnormal, too abnormal." Xu Zheng shook his head, amazed.

"Azheng, what's wrong with you?" Tao Tao asked.

"It's unbelievable that Nian Nian would actually ask a boy out alone." Xu Zheng said.

Meng Yin glanced at He Fu out of the corner of her eye: "Maybe Nian Nian has figured it out, haha."

"That's not possible..." Tao Tao said weakly.

Don't they know who Xia Nian is? After graduating from high school, a boy confessed his love to her, but she rejected him without hesitation and deleted and blocked all his contact information in front of him.

"Stop talking, stop talking, let's go for a walk outside!" Meng Yin looked outside and saw that they had already reached the entrance of the restaurant.

He Fu said gently: "Then I will go back first."

"it is good."

Meng Yin looked at Xiao Xian: "Master Xiao, are you coming with us?"

Xiao Xian lowered his eyes, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Okay, I'll go with you." Xiao Xian reacted and nodded.

"Then let's go." Meng Yin said with a smile.

-

"I understand what Miss Xia means. You suspect there are two murderers, right?"

Xia Nian told Xia Houyu what she had found out in the afternoon, and Xia Houyu quickly understood her thoughts.

"That's right, and I think... Mr. He... is a little strange." Xia Nian said.

Xiahou Yu's eyes flickered slightly, and he looked at Xia Nian's profile: "Well, I have sent someone to investigate him."

Xia Nian raised her head and met his eyes.

Xiahou Yu felt a little uncomfortable and wanted to say something, but then he saw Xia Nian look away and point to the street on his side.

"What is that street? It looks so lively." Xia Nian asked.

Unlike the street they were walking on now, the atmosphere on that street looked completely different from here from the outside, with flowers and wine, and many people shouting for customers.

Xiahou Yu realized at a glance that this was the Flower Street.

"This is... Flower Street." Xiahou Yu said.

"Flower Street?" Xia Nian didn't like reading novels with ancient backgrounds and was not familiar with these words.

"It's a place where some rich kids hang out." Xiahou Yu said it implicitly, but Xia Nian still understood it.

"It's probably a brothel or something. It seems Master Xiahou knows a lot about it." Xia Nian said with a chuckle.

Xiahou Yu quickly said: "I have never been to these places, I have only heard of them."

Xia Nian lowered his eyebrows and smiled, then walked forward: "Master Xiahou, you don't have to explain to me."

"Nian...Miss Xia!" Xiahou Yu chased after her and was about to say something when he heard countless people screaming from the direction of Huajie.

"Ah! Someone come quickly! Someone's dead!"
