When the book-traveling little detective meets the two-faced prince

"…………" Lin Lezhi sighed softly, holding his forehead slightly and said, "It's true that enemies meet on a narrow road."

"What did you say?"

Lin Lezhi stood up, removed the sword pressing on his shoulder, turned around and faced Liu Yunhe's expression full of vigilance and hostility.

Lin Lezhi could tell that the hostility in Liu Yunhe's eyes was real, just like when they first met at the Zhouqing Town Inn, but this time there was less panic.

Lin Lezhi smiled and said, "I mean...long time no see."

Liu Yunhe put away his sword, crossed his arms and said sarcastically: "Really? Why do I feel like someone saw us and wanted to escape?"

"Run away? How could I? I saw you guys coming, so I was about to get up to greet you. But before I could even get up, you pushed me back down. Besides, why would I run away in broad daylight?"

"You did it yourself and you know it in your heart, you...!"

"Yun He." After Xiao Yihuo and Qingchuan booked a room with the waiter, they walked over slowly. Xiao Yihuo spoke up to stop Liu Yunhe.

Liu Yunhe had little experience in the world and was simple-minded, so he couldn't keep things to himself. After this test, Lin Lezhi also got a rough idea. It seemed that something happened after he left, and it was closely related to him.

Now is not the time to dwell on this. Anyway, just get rid of it.

Lin Lezhi turned his head slightly and put his sights on Xiao Yihuo behind Liu Yunhe, and said with a smile: "Xiao Xu, please be fair. I said hello to you when I left that night."

Xiao Yihuo glanced at Lin Lezhi, then lowered his eyes and said, "Well, he did tell me."

Xiao Yihuo originally wanted to sit down at the table next to Lin Lezhi, but when he took one look at the food residue on the table that had not been cleaned up, and the melon seed shells on the floor that had not been swept, he honestly showed disgust on his face, and then came to Lin Lezhi's table and sat down.

A table can only seat four people at most. Guan Ziheng looked around, then stood up and said with a very open and humble smile: "I can see that you are friends of Le Zhi. I have something else to do, so I won't disturb you from reminiscing about the past. I'll leave first."

After saying that, Guan Ziheng patted his chest where the book list was placed, gave Lin Lezhi a look that said "May you be lucky", and ran away.

"Hello-!"

Guan Ziheng had no time to listen to what Lin Lezhi said because he had already run away.

As soon as he saw Lin Lezhi's unlucky expression, he knew that there must be a deep connection between them. If he didn't run, he would definitely be used as a shield by Lin Lezhi.

When Guan Ziheng stepped out of the door, he happened to pass by a man in blue clothes, with a white veil on his head and a sword in his hand, who walked into Jianghe Inn.

However, Guan Ziheng looked away after just one glance. He had been running around the whole morning and was starving, so he just found a small stall outside and bought some food to fill his stomach.

While eating, Guan Ziheng took out the list of books to check and confirm the number of volumes to be printed. He looked from top to bottom and found that someone had ordered a copy of "Four Strange Cases".

"You're not usually so considerate." Lin Lezhi muttered softly with a look of disgust on his face.

Guan Ziheng left, and the seat next to him naturally became empty. Qingchuan and Liu Yunhe no longer had a reason to stand. When they sat down, Qingchuan asked with a smile, "Is the person who just left a friend of Brother Lezhi?"

Lin Lezhi turned around and said casually, "Oh, yes, that's right. I just met this friend three months ago. He is like this when he sees a stranger. He is shy. Don't mind it."

The man in green attracted a lot of attention as soon as he entered the door because he was wearing a veil hat in broad daylight.

After the waiter brought a pot of tea to Lin Lezhi's table, he immediately came over with a smile and asked, "Sir, you look very skilled. Would you like to stay overnight or have a meal?"

"Stay at the hotel."

Originally, Liu Yunhe had no idea who the visitor was, but after hearing the words "extraordinary skills", he still looked over. The first thing he saw was the man's pace.

This person's steps are steady, and he really looks like a martial artist. And the way he dresses...

Liu Yunhe tilted his head towards Xiao Yihuo and whispered, "Young Master, do you think this person's clothes look familiar to you?"

Xiao Yihuo glanced at the man, then his eyes darkened and moved his gaze to Lin Lezhi.

Lin Lezhi was confused by the look on Xiao Yihuo's face and was too lazy to think about what Xiao Yihuo was thinking. He was facing away from the inn counter and was even too lazy to look back.

Lin Lezhi took the new pot of tea and poured himself a cup of hot tea.

The waiter turned around to look at the remaining house number on the wall, then looked at the exquisite dress of the man, and then turned around and asked uncertainly: "Our Tianzi Room and Dizi Room are full, I wonder if you have any requirements for housing?"

"As long as it's habitable."

"okay."

The waiter showed a delighted look on his face, took down the doorplate with the Chinese character "人" on it from the wall, opened the store book and asked, "Excuse me, sir, may I ask your name?"

The man in blue was silent for a while, then responded, "Jiang Lian'an."

As soon as he finished speaking, the originally noisy lobby suddenly became quiet, and Xiao Yihuo and his group showed surprise in their eyes.

"puff--!"

Because the surroundings had become quiet, the noise Lin Lezhi made was particularly loud, making Lin Lezhi want to find a hole in the ground to crawl into.

What are you doing? !

Today I either have a conflict with water or I have seen a ghost. Can I please just drink a sip of water?

The position where Lin Lezhi was sitting was opposite to the counter of the inn. Lin Lezhi turned his head slightly and glanced in the direction of that person. It turned out that the person's clothes were very similar to his own.

Could it be the real one?

Then what's wrong with me? Am I a bug?

Hearing the response from the man in green, the waiter was surprised and excited, and even the pen in his hand was shaking. He hurriedly came out and said, "So you are the world-famous Mr. Jiang Lian'an. I have heard of your deeds a long time ago and I admire you very much."

"Thank you for the compliment, I don't deserve it."

"Mr. Jiang, if you don't dare to accept the title, then no one else in the world will. Mr. Jiang, please come in, please come in."

"Thank you."

The waiter took the man in blue to the guest rooms at the back. This man instantly became the topic of discussion among everyone.

"Do you think this is really Jiang Lian'an?"

"That should be the case. Who would dare to pretend to be Jiang Lian'an? I guess he is probably here because of the strange incident in Huaifeng Village."

"But Jiang Lian'an would come here only if he saw green smoke rising. It's been two months since this strange incident happened, and no one in this town has seen green smoke rising."

"That's what the people say, and we haven't seen it with our own eyes. Maybe they would care even if no one raised the smoke."

"Anyway, there are many important people coming to our town this time. Even General Cheng Su of Dingyuan, who conquered the Yunqiang Kingdom in one fell swoop and made great military achievements, is here. This will be something to watch."

Liu Yunhe raised his eyebrows slightly, paying attention to the expression on Lin Lezhi's face, and then he snorted and said, "I think a certain fake is about to be exposed."

"Yun He." Qingchuan called Liu Yun He's name gently, then shook his head slightly at Liu Yun He, indicating that Liu Yun He should not discuss this matter here.

Liu Yunhe always listened to Xiao Yihuo and Qingchuan, so he obediently said nothing, but just looked at Lin Lezhi with an expression of watching a good show, wanting to see how Lin Lezhi would react.

Lin Lezhi thought to himself, a little brat is just a little brat, the few thoughts he had were all written on his face.

It seems that Xiao Yihuo is really good to him. He has such a big fox around him, and his mind is so pure and easy to understand. If he doesn't want to see others make a fool of themselves, he should spend a few more years in this world.

"It's noon now, let's not just sit here and order something to eat."

Xiao Yihuo closed the fan in his hand, and gently flapped the fan head between his palms. The peace knot hanging on the end of the fan also swayed. Xiao Yihuo raised his eyes and smiled and said, "Okay, you said before that you would treat me to a meal. It's rare for us to get together. I think we should do it today."

"Sure, order whatever you want to eat, it's my treat." You don't have to pay for it anyway.

Coincidentally, the waiter came out from the back and heard the conversation between the two. He greeted them with a smile and said, "Dear guests, what would you like to eat?"

Xiao Yihuo looked at the waiter and said, "We are new here and don't know the specialties here. Please prepare a few more special dishes for us."

"Okay, I'll ask the kitchen to prepare it. Please wait for a moment, gentlemen."

"Wait."

The waiter turned around and asked, "Mr. Xiao, do you need anything else?"

Xiao Yihuo looked at Lin Lezhi and confirmed, "Last time you said you would buy me whatever I want to eat. Does that mean you will buy it for me no matter how I want to eat? Does that mean I can eat whatever I want?"

"Of course, I always keep my word."

Xiao Yihuo fanned his hand again, and the smile in his eyes deepened. Then Xiao Yihuo looked at the waiter and said with a smile: "It's a rare occasion for us to get together. Please serve the dishes I ordered just now to each table here, and put them on Mr. Lin's account."

Just now, when Xiao Yihuo was paying the deposit for the hotel stay at the counter, he saw a book entry on the side, which indicated that Mr. Lin's meals were recorded in Guo Yong's account.

"Mr. Lin, this..." The waiter looked at Lin Lezhi with an expression of confirmation.

"I believe that Mr. Lin is not a man who goes back on his word." Xiao Yihuo added with a smile.

Okay, Xiao Yihuo is waiting for me here.

Lin Lezhi touched the bulging purse on his waist, his heart was bleeding, but he still kept smiling and said, "Of course, I'll do as Mr. Xiao says."

Back in the room, Lin Lezhi looked at the wallet with almost only the skin left, and felt like crying but had no tears.

Before I could even hear a sound, it was gone...

At this moment, Guan Ziheng had already settled things with the bookmaker, and came back from outside after having a full meal. He closed the door and asked Lin Lezhi, who was lying on the table, with a curious look on his face, "Wuyou, I just heard from the people outside that Jiang Lian'an has also moved into this inn. Did I miss a good show?"
