Boss: "The two girls look strange, are they from outside the city?"

Su Ci smiled and nodded: "Yes, my sister and I just arrived in Yuezhou City today.

Did something happen in this city? Why do people seem to be a little weird when they see us two sisters? The military commander guarding the city also reminded us to be careful. "

The boss sighed, "What a sin! Ladies, if possible, you should leave Yuezhou City as soon as possible. The city has been in turmoil recently."

Seeing how confused they were, an old lady lowered her voice and kindly reminded them, "Girls, there's a thief in the city who specializes in catching pretty girls. You two sisters look like fairies, so you have to be careful."

Someone stood up, and the rest of the diners also said in unison: "Yes, yes, all the pretty girls in this city who can leave have left. It's too dangerous for the two of you to be alone outside."

"Who says it's not true? Oh, I don't know when this thief will be caught."

"That's right. Fortunately, my daughter got married early. Otherwise, I would be worried to death."

"Something happened to Mr. Yang's family last month, and now you're here..."

Seeing the discussion getting louder and louder, the boss was worried that it might cause trouble, so he quickly spoke up to stop it: "Hey, okay, okay, everyone stop talking, eat quickly and go home."

Su Ci said to the diners around him with gratitude: "Thank you all for the reminder.

However, our family members have all passed away, and we couldn't stay at home any longer, so we came to Yuezhou to seek refuge with our uncle. We didn't expect to encounter something like this. Sister, what should we do? "

As he said this, he looked at Li Lianhua with a somewhat panicked expression.

Li Lianhua patted her hands and comforted her: "Don't panic, sister. Let's go to Yang's house first. If our cousin is unwilling to take us in, we can think of other ways."

The boss looked at the two sisters with some pity and told them the location of Yang Mansion.

After eating, Li Lianhua took Su Ci and walked slowly towards Yang Mansion.

Unfortunately, it was their first time in Yuezhou and they were not familiar with the streets, so they got lost after walking for a while.

Fortunately, they met patrolling yamen runners and constables. With their kind guidance, the two sisters finally arrived at the gate of Yang's Mansion.

However, the gate of Yang Mansion was closed, with a white banner hanging at the door, and the surroundings were unusually quiet.

Li Lianhua went up and knocked on the door, but no one answered.

Just as they were hesitating whether to leave, the door finally opened a crack, and a white-haired old man stuck his head out, looking at the two of them warily.

After a long while, the old man asked, "Who are you looking for? There is something going on at home, and the master does not want to see outsiders. You can leave now."

Su Ci quickly explained, "Old man, my two sisters are from Taizhou. Mr. Yang is our cousin. Something happened at home, so we came to seek refuge with him. Please help pass on the message."

The old man thought for a moment and said, "Wait a minute, I'll go talk to the master."

After saying that, he closed the door.

Not long after, the door opened again, and a middle-aged man with a sad face walked out quickly, "Are you Li's cousin? Come in, come in."

After the two of them went in, the old man looked around vigilantly before closing the door with a bang.

Li Lianhua and Su Ci followed behind Yang Yuanwai, looking around as they walked.

White cloth was hung everywhere in Yang's house, and the atmosphere seemed particularly heavy.

Yang Yuanwai led them to the living room, and after dismissing the maids and servants, he looked at Li Lianhua and Su Ci with a sad face, "My lords, Lord Yang has already told me to cooperate with your actions.

I also ask the two adults to catch the thief and seek justice for my daughter."

After saying that, Mr. Yang leaned over and bowed deeply to Li Lianhua and Su Ci.

Li Lianhua lifted him up and said, "Mr. Yang, please accept my condolences. We two sisters will do our best. Mr. Yang, have you bought any maids or servants recently?"

Yang was stunned. Although he didn't understand why she asked this, he still answered, "No, most of the maids and servants in the Yang Mansion are born in the family. Very few are purchased from outside. Even if there are, they have been in the Yang Mansion for more than two or three years."

Li Lianhua nodded, indicating that she understood.

Su Ci: "Uncle, my two sisters are a little tired, can you let us go and rest first?"

Mr. Yang immediately called a maid and asked her to take the two of them to rest.

When there were only two people in the room, Su Ci asked Li Lianhua in confusion: "Huahua, did you find anything?"

Li Lianhua pondered and said, "I was wondering, Brother Yang has been catching Butterfly for many days and there is no news, where could he be hiding?

It is said that the most dangerous place is the safest place. Could he be hiding in the homes of these victims?

Besides, I can disguise myself as a woman, so could he also use this method to avoid being searched?"

Su Ci shrugged, "Okay, then you take your time to think about it. Anyway, don't ask me to do anything that requires brainpower. I don't have that kind of brainpower. I'm going to go to sleep for a while. I didn't get enough rest last night."

Li Lianhua: "Go ahead, I'll keep you company."

Su Ci pulled him up and said unhappily, "Why are you guarding? It's broad daylight, how can a butterfly commit a crime? You didn't get much rest last night. Let's sleep together and get enough rest so that you can cope with the night."

After saying that, she pushed him down on the bed without giving him a chance to refuse.

At the same time, with the help of some people, many people knew that two beautiful sisters came to the city today.
