He really is an assassin from Misty Hall! Cheng Jin turned his head to look at Ai Wei, and then asked: "What I don't understand is that the Misty Hall are so secretive, and how did you find them?"
Wan Fu said: "There are many places where Misty Hall can be contacted, and there are also other places where Zhenjiang can be used."
"Oh? Who was the contact person? Where is it now? " Cheng Jin asked.
"If... If this little one tells General Cheng everything that I know, you ? Can you spare me? " Wan Fu swallowed his saliva, and looked at Cheng Jin.
Cheng Jin slowly shook his head and said: "Hiring an assassin, assaulting the Madam, this is a heavy crime of exterminating the nine clans. Even if I wanted to go easy on you, I am powerless to do so.
He was dazed for a long time, then slowly closed his eyes and sighed towards the sky. He said: "The contact points for Misty Hall in various places are either restaurants or inns, and although the names are different, they all have the word 'three' in them. If you want to look for Misty Hall, when you see the shopkeeper, directly call him Master San, he will understand the reason why you came here, and will bring you to the secret room in the back for a detailed discussion. "
Regarding these things, let alone Cheng Jin, it was the first time that even Ai Wei had heard of them. The two of them involuntarily frowned, and asked in unison: "Are you serious?"
Wan Fu smiled bitterly, and said: "I am already a dying person, how can I deceive General Cheng and Master Ai? I only hope that I can make up for my mistakes. I hope that the two lords can speak up for my Manor Lord in front of the King. This lowly one's rotten life is nothing to be regretted, but I absolutely do not dare to implicate the Villa Master. My Villa Master is truly innocent, you two sirs must do everything possible to prevent this from happening! " As he spoke, his tears began to flow again.
At this point, even though he didn't want to live, he still wholeheartedly wanted to protect her. Just his loyalty to her was admirable.
Cheng Jin nodded his head, and said seriously: "This is a serious matter, we will investigate it thoroughly. If Manor Lord Wan does not know, don't worry, we will not wrongly accuse him, and kill the innocent!"
Wan Fu choked with sobs, "If General Cheng can say this, then this lowly one is relieved."
Ai Wei said: "You can write a confession letter now and describe everything that happened here. We will also verify everything based on your confession letter, if there are any differences, I'm afraid that Manor Lord Wan will also have to come here."
Wan Hail shivered and said, "I will write it all down. I will write out everything I have done."
"Yes!" Cheng Jin nodded, and nodded towards the Hidden Arrow Crew at the side. Immediately, one of the Hidden Arrow Crew took out a pen and paper and untied the rope around Wan Fu's wrist.
As he was writing his confession, Cheng Jin and Ai Wei walked out of the torture chamber and into the corridor outside. Cheng Jin asked: "Master Ai, how much credibility do you think Wan Fu has?"
Ai Wei pondered for a moment, then said: "I thought, it would be above 80%."
Cheng Jin propped his chin on his hand, and said faintly: "Looks like I need to go to that Three Elements Restaurant that he mentioned." After pausing for a moment, he asked again, "Master Ai, your Lieutenant's Mansion are very familiar with the situation in the capital.
Ai Wei slowly said: "If I remember correctly, the Three Elements Restaurant is located in North of City, and is an extremely ordinary inn. The environment is normal, and it is a little shabby, so regardless of whether it is wine or food, they are not outstanding, but the price is extremely expensive, so locals rarely go there to eat or drink, and most of them are outsiders." Pausing for a moment, he asked: "Does General Cheng plan to destroy that place?"
"That's right!" Your mission is to investigate the case and my mission is to deal with the Misty Hall. Since you know of their contact point, you will naturally have to remove it entirely. "
Ai Wei took a deep breath and said: "But, according to what I've heard, that place is only the point of contact for Misty Hall, and Misty Hall assassins may not hide there. General Cheng going there recklessly is fine, but if he doesn't catch the assassin, wouldn't that scare the enemy and scare the assassin away?"
The truth was this ? Cheng Jin asked: "Then... Master Ai, do you have any good methods? "
"Since the shopkeeper is the contact person, then we must think of a way to capture him without anyone noticing and open his mouth for him to tell us where the assassin is hiding." Ai Wei squinted his eyes and said.
"Someone who can contact us with Misty Hall is probably an outstanding Spirit Cultivator. Furthermore, he is in a restaurant and is in public, so how can we secretly capture him?"
Ai Wei thought for a while, then smiled: "I have a plan!"
The Three Elements Restaurant might be called a restaurant, but in reality, it was just a small tavern. There was only one floor, and the equipment inside were very old.
In the afternoon, a group of customers suddenly came to the desolate restaurant. Each and every one of them was dressed in coarse clothes and were in hempen pants.
It was rare for customers to come knocking, so the restaurant waiter should have been very friendly, but the waiter here was the complete opposite. He lazily walked over and said listlessly: "Ladies and gentlemen, please come in!"
The youngsters dressed like peasants glanced at the waiter, and found a seat at the back. They then shouted out, "Serve the wine and serve the dishes! "Waiter, bring me all your good wine and dishes, this grandpa has the money!"
As he spoke, one of the youths threw a bulging purse onto the table with a dull clang.
Seeing this, the waiter secretly rolled her eyes and muttered in her heart: Country bumpkin! He still looked weak and listless as she replied lazily: "Alright, Sir, please wait a moment. This lowly one will go and instruct the kitchen attendants behind to prepare some food."
Seeing that he was walking so slowly and looking as if he was half dead, the young man became angry and shouted: "You are f * cking faster! Didn't you see that everyone was hungry? "Damn it, everyone is just a cheap piece of shit!"1
Hearing this, not to mention the waiter, even the shopkeeper who was reading the account book at the counter raised his head and coldly stared at them.
"What are you looking at? I came here to spend money, not to suffer. Damn it, if you drag it out any longer, I'll tear down your crappy shop! "
The waiter was so angry that his face turned red. He turned around and was about to argue when the manager cleared his throat and said to the waiter, "Little Wu, go quickly!"
While talking, he smiled apologetically at the farmers: "The shop assistants are new, insensible, Sir don't take offense ? ?"
Without waiting for him to finish, the youth shouted in dissatisfaction: "Cut the f * cking bullshit, hurry up and serve the food and wine!"
Under the shopkeeper's instructions, the waiter left with a belly full of anger. Since there were no other guests, their dishes arrived quickly, but during this period of time, the youths continued to curse and curse until all the dishes were ordered. Only then did the few of them shut their mouths, as if they were starving to death, they shook off their cheeks and wolfed down their food, sweeping away the dishes on the table like a tornado.
The youngsters who felt that they had not eaten their fill ordered a few plates of fish and several jugs of wine before they continued eating and drinking.
The waiter was not so patient as to wait by the side. He ran to the entrance of the restaurant early and sat on the steps while enjoying the cool air while he grilled the peanuts.
A few youths ate from the afternoon all the way until the evening before coming to an end. At this moment, they were already sixty to seventy percent drunk. One of them was so drunk that his face was flushed red, and when he stood up, his body was swaying.
"Bill!" The waiter comes over, the boss is going to pay the bill! " The young man in the lead threw his purse and shouted loudly.
The waiter walked in unhurriedly, not even looking at the plates and wine jugs on the table, and said: "Sir s, a total of 12 taels of silver."
"How much?" The youth suspected that he had misheard. He leaned towards the waiter and said, "Say it again!"
The waiter was so infuriated that he laughed and said, "I say, you paid a total of twelve taels of silver. Pay up!"
"Twelve taels of silver?" That's f * cking enough for a family to use for half a year. Do you have a black shop here? " The youth slapped the purse in his hand onto the table and said, "I don't have twelve taels, that's all. Do you want it or not?"
Ouch! They were here to do whatever they wanted! The waiter wasn't angered. Instead, he lowered his head and looked at his purse. With such a large purse inside, there should be at least twelve taels of silver inside!
As he thought of this, he stretched out his hand to pull the string of the money pouch.
The waiter widened his eyes in disbelief. After looking again and again, he confirmed that it was indeed copper coins and not silver. Anger rose from his chest all the way to the top of his head. He stared at the youths and said, "Everyone, you must be joking with this little one, right?"
"Are you joking? We only brought so much money, what do you think we should do! " The youth relied on his alcohol tolerance to act like a rogue, tilting his head as if he was acting like he didn't know what was going on.
One tael of silver was always worth a thousand taels of gold. No matter how big the purse was, it would only be worth two or three hundred taels of silver at most. It was not even enough to cover the bill! The waiter looked at them and shook his head. "I see that you're not here to eat, but to find fault!"
"It's not that we want to cause trouble, it's just that your lousy shop is too despicable. Eating a few plates of food and a few jugs of wine costs me twelve taels of silver. Why don't you f * cking steal it?" The young man frowned as he shouted.
"You are probably being unreasonable, aren't you? Fine! "If you don't hand over the money for today's food, no one can leave ?"
Before he could finish his sentence, the youth's big palm had already landed on his face. He shouted angrily, "Damn it, I'll give you face, but no face! Today, even if I don't give you a single cent, I want to see what you can do to me!" As he spoke, he looked at his companions and said, "Let's go!"
