Chapter 6 Fruit Tracking
“This is it!”
Ruan Rong pointed to a grocery store not far in front, and said, “The only thing they can do for white berries is theirs!”
When she mentioned the word ‘white berry’, her shoulders were down and her eyebrows were frowned, and she looked languid.
But the one who reacted more was Feng Xin, who was riding on the horse with an old face turning green in the dark. He swallowed a few mouthfuls of saliva, but he still couldn’t hold down the acid in his stomach. The left back wowed and retched. .
No way, who allowed Sun Shaozong to observe for a long time, and he could only confirm that Ruan Rong’s vomit and fruit residues were seven to eight points similar. In the end, for the sake of safety, he had to adopt the most primitive analysis method-to deceive Feng Xin. Eat it and distinguish by taste!
So after some indescribable tests, Sun Shaozong finally determined that what the assassins ate was a kind of fruit called’white berry’, and this kind of fruit was a specialty of the neighboring country. Because of the inconvenience of transportation, only in the city Available at two merchants.
One of them is a restaurant. White berries have always been used only to entertain VIPs and have not been peddled outside. Considering that it is unlikely that the assassins will rush to the restaurant to consume before the action, so this grocery store in the north of the city, It should be the source of the’whiteberry residue’!
In addition, Ruan Rong also provided a message: As the duo of the six countries in southern Xinjiang, Zhenguo and Qianxiang have been mortal enemies for hundreds of years, and in recent years, Qianxiang has been backed by the Great Zhou. , There is a faint sign of annexation of the country to dominate southern Xinjiang, which has caused great panic among the government and the public in the country.
Therefore, the ‘ranger’ of Jianguo came to assassinate the special envoy of the Great Zhou Dynasty, intending to provoke the relationship between the two countries, and before he did it, he used his hometown’s unique food and fruit to grow, which is a reasonable and reasonable inference!
talk less gossip.
But they said that everyone rode horses all the way to the door of the grocery store in the north of the city. Sun Shaozong ordered Feng Xin and others to wait on the street, then turned over and dismounted, and walked in side by side with Ruan Rong.
It is said to be a grocery store, but it is actually a three-story loft with a large area. After entering the door, the shelves are also full of varieties. Not only are there special products from the six countries of southern Xinjiang, but also opened up the Great Zhou and Western Regions. The special area is like an ancient international hypermarket.
Before Sun Shaozong could take a closer look, a shop clerk stepped forward with a smile and said, “Please, please! I don’t know if you’re looking at the guest, you want to see what the trumpet has, or Already have something you can think of? We have a bit of mixed stuff here. If you have something you can think of, you can just say something to the little one, and the little one can help you lead the way.”
This guy is really sweet.
Sun Shaozong pretended to ask casually: “I heard that you have white berries for sale here? It is the kind of fruit that is a specialty of the country.”
“There are some, you two will come with me!”
The guy led the way, and the two followed closely. They came to a cellar a short time later. They saw him bending over and grabbing a red rope, pulling a rattan basket from the cellar, and handing it in front of the two of them. He said: “Look, you guys, there is so much left for the goods that were just replenished in the morning.”
Sun Shaozong looked down, but saw that the bottom of the basket was sparsely populated. There were only two dozen table tennis-sized fruits. The red and bright ones were still braving, and they looked very gratifying.
Although there is a “berry” in the name of this thing, it actually looks like a lychee, with a hard shell on the outside and a small core inside.
“Yes, this is it!”
Ruan Rong exclaimed happily, and then asked: “Man, during the period from yesterday to today, did anyone buy a lot of white berries at once? At least enough for more than a dozen people!”
“This…”
She asked too eagerly, which caused the guy to be vigilant, looked at the two suspiciously, and said perfunctorily: “Keye, we don’t know how many things we sell in a day, I really can’t remember… ”
When halfway through, the guy’s eyes suddenly straightened, and he stared at Sun Shaozong’s palm-to be precise, stared at the broken silver in the palm of his hand!
Sun Shaozong tossed the silver forward. The store clerk hurriedly held it in his hands, and gently turned it upside down. He found that there were at least four or two, and a face suddenly smiled like a chrysanthemum.
Sun Shaozong smiled and asked, “I should remember now, right?”
“I remember, I remember!”
The boy nodded as if pecking at the rice, and said with an open eyebrow: “This morning there is indeed a high-profile guest. Without a word, he bought a whole basket of white berries, which cost a full sixteen twenty-three dollars. !”
bought a basket?
That 80% should not be wrong!
Sun Shaozong also couldn’t hide his excitement and asked: “Then do you remember what he looked like? How did he wear it? Is it the subordinate or the owner? What direction did he go when he left? Is it by car or on foot?!”
With this continual questioning, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com turned a dude into a dizzy question, but for the sake of silver, he still tried his best to recall: “The person looks nothing special. It seems that he should be from a big family. Get off-drive a carriage when you go, as if you are heading north.”
“Did you go northward?!”
Sun Shaozong is really overjoyed this time. The grocery store is in the north of the city. If you want to search north, the scope will be much smaller!
After getting the affirmative answer from the shop assistant, he reached out and grabbed two “white berries” from the rattan basket, and pulled Ruan Rong out of the door without looking back.
got to the street.
Sun Shaozong said nothing, first peeled one and put it in his mouth, chewed the pulp, and spit the core on the palm of his hand.
The guards were looking at them inexplicably, they saw him move the peel and core forward, and said loudly: “Brothers, let me take a closer look! Later, we will split up and spread the groceries to the north. All the storage yards will be carefully searched for me. As long as you find similar peels and pits, report them to me immediately!”
The so-called “dump yard” is the ancient garbage dump.
From morning to now, it’s been seven or eight hours. Normal people shouldn’t leave these **** at home, so as long as they can find these peels and cores in the storage yard, they can follow the vine to find out where the assassin is hidden. !
Of course, if the assassins were so careful not to even deal with the garbage, then Sun Shaozong could only tell the Qianxiang court of this information, and let them come to a carpet search.
It’s just that, everyone’s contribution is not enough to make up for it, but it’s hard to say.
