Chapter 182 Breakfast Stall
At dawn, the sky was gradually dyed with a gentle blue-purple color. Tang Wenhao and Shen Xiao woke up early from their dreams, packed their luggage, picked out a few light clothes, and set out on the journey, carrying a water bottle and a few hot and fragrant roujiamo as dry food for the journey.
After a long journey, the outline of Licheng finally came into view in the evening of the second day. After arriving in Licheng, Tang Wenhao took Shen Xiao straight to the most luxurious inn in the city. This inn not only has a superior location, but also has magnificent decorations, revealing an extraordinary style. Tang Wenhao opened two excellent rooms without hesitation.
Inside the room, there was a soft bed and exquisite furnishings. Tang Wenhao and Shen Xiao had a simple meal, washed up, and then lay down on the bed, letting their tired bodies gradually relax and fall asleep.
Perhaps because he was too tired from traveling these past two days, Tang Wenhao finally had a good sleep. When he opened his eyes, it was already the morning of the next day. He sat up and took his time to get out of bed and get ready. When he was done, Shen Xiao came knocking on the door.
"Let's go have breakfast first, and then go and ask after we finish eating," Tang Wenhao was about to call the waiter.
"Hey!" Shen Xiao hurriedly called Tang Wenhao, "Let's go out to eat. Let's see if there are any breakfast stalls near the bulletin wall near the government office. Maybe we can find out something this way."
"Okay, okay," Tang Wenhao couldn't always think things through when he was in the situation, luckily Shen Xiao was there.
When they arrived near the county government office, they found that there was actually a breakfast stall diagonally opposite, and there was a bulletin wall opposite. Tang Wenhao hurried over with Shen Xiao.
"Good morning, gentlemen! What would you like to eat?" the stall owner greeted them warmly, with a simple smile on his face. His stall was small, but it had everything you could imagine, including noodles, steamed buns, steamed bread, cornbread, soy milk and other breakfasts.
"Boss, everything you have here looks very tempting. This is our first time in Licheng, and we want to try your specialties. How about we all get some of what you have?" Tang Wenhao's tone was somewhat tactful and friendly like a businessman. He knew that if he wanted to get information in this strange place, he must first close the distance with people.
"Oh, that's great!" When the stall owner heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up and the smile on his face became even brighter. "Don't worry, the breakfast here is all homemade and absolutely delicious! I have been setting up a stall here for seven or eight years, and my old customers all say it's good!" As the stall owner spoke, he began to prepare breakfast quickly.
While the stall owner was busy, Shen Xiao and Tang Wenhao exchanged glances. They tacitly realized that this stall owner had been doing business in Licheng for so long, and if there was any disturbance, such as a wanted order, he would definitely know about it.
Soon, all kinds of breakfast were placed on the table. The stall owner was about to retreat to the side, but was stopped by Tang Wenhao enthusiastically. "Boss, don't leave in a hurry, sit down and eat together! We are new here and are full of curiosity about everything in Licheng. Can you tell us what delicious and fun things there are in Licheng?"
Perhaps he felt Tang Wenhao's sincerity and enthusiasm, so the stall owner hesitated for a moment, but finally sat down. It was past the peak period, and besides their table, there were only two other tables of customers at the stall, so it was not busy.
"My two guests, although our Licheng is not rich, it has its own characteristics." The stall owner began to introduce in a torrent of words, "Take that small restaurant for example, although it is inconspicuous, their clay pot meatballs are a specialty. The meat is tender and the soup is rich. Everyone who has eaten it praises it. Also, the beautiful mountains and rivers of our Licheng are also a highlight, but now the grass is not green and not beautiful..." The owner is also an enthusiastic person, and he speaks very well.
As they chatted, the topic inadvertently slid into the sensitive and important field of public security. "When I just passed by the notice wall, I paid special attention and found that it was clean and there was not even a trace of a wanted poster. It seems that the public security in our Licheng is really well-deserved and reassuring." Tang Wenhao praised sincerely.
The stall owner's face showed a bit of pride when he heard this. He put down his chopsticks, leaned forward slightly, and said as if he wanted to share a deep secret: "My two guests, I'm not bragging, the public security in our Licheng is indeed excellent. I have been setting up a stall here for many years, and I remember clearly that there have only been two wanted posters posted."
Shen Xiao took over the conversation, his tone revealing a hint of natural intimacy: "It's indeed not easy. In our hometown, there are wanted warrants all year round. What are the charges for the two wanted warrants you just mentioned? Were the people caught in the end?"
The stall owner shook his head, a look of reminiscence flashed across his face: "They were all major murder cases, and they made people terrified just by hearing about them. The first wanted poster was posted when I first started setting up the stall, and it was taken down after a few days. I don’t know the specific circumstances, I just know it was a murder case. As for the second one..." At this point, the stall owner suddenly stopped, a hint of hesitation flashed in his eyes.
Seeing this, Shen Xiao immediately pretended to be a curious baby and asked, "What happened to the second case? It sounds interesting. Why don't you continue?"
The stall owner was amused by Shen Xiao's questioning. He waved his hand and explained, "It's not a big deal. It's just this matter. Everyone in the whole county knows about it. It's about Mr. Du, the owner of the largest bank here, who was killed by his concubine. The concubine was not only cruel and ruthless, but also took away all the gold, silver and jewelry in Mr. Du's house and fled without a trace. This matter has caused a sensation. The notice has been posted on the bulletin wall for several months, but there is no news of the arrest of the perpetrators."
