Chapter 359 How could it be him?

Everyone was startled and immediately became alert, instinctively looking at the people around them with wariness.

The black market workers were immediately at a loss.

But Zhao Xi wouldn't let it go and continued to ask, "Just now, who were the people who came in? Step forward so I can identify them."

Only three or four people had just come in, and they were quickly pushed out.

After the other guests realized they hadn't lost anything, they all watched them with amusement.

Zhao Xi looked at several people, and finally stopped at the attendant wearing a veiled hat, sizing him up.

"Take off your veil so I can see it."

The attendant immediately took a step back and said in a low voice, "You've mistaken me for someone else. I'm not a thief."

The black market clerk stepped forward and whispered, "Sir, you just said the thief was wearing brown clothes, but this person is clearly not him. Please be patient, we will search carefully and we will definitely find your purse."

The people who come to the black market are all rich and powerful, and the shopkeeper is worried that they might have a conflict, in which case it would be their fault.

By now, one of the waiters had already gone to call the manager.

However, Zhao Xi sneered, "That thief was wearing brown clothes, but there weren't any here, were there? Maybe he disguised himself to avoid being recognized. I find it strange that he's wearing a veiled hat here, this isn't an auction house."

The attendant was clearly angry. "I came from the auction house."

"That's even stranger. Why aren't you at the auction house? What are you doing here in the lobby all of a sudden?"

The attendant sneered, "I can tell you're just looking for trouble. I can't be bothered to talk to you. I'm going back to the small building now."

He turned to leave, but Zhao Xi grabbed him. "I think you're just feeling guilty and trying to escape. Why don't you take off your veil so we can all see if you're a thief?" Zhao Xi pointed at the attendant and said to the black market clerks, "Don't you think he's very suspicious?"

The guys chuckled awkwardly; it was indeed suspicious.

However, according to the rules of their black market, even if a customer does something very suspicious, as long as it doesn't harm the black market, they have no right to interfere.

However, the troublemakers are also guests, and since they couldn't find Yuan Shanchuan today, they are indeed feeling guilty. Therefore, their attitude is inevitably not assertive enough, and they can only try to appease them for now.

Fortunately, neither of these two people looked like the master, but rather servants who were needed by the master, which made things easier.

One of the waiters whispered to Zhao Xi, "Sir, this isn't the place to talk. Why don't we go to the other room and explain things over there?"

After saying that, he turned to his attendant and said, "This guest, we believe you are innocent, but this guest doesn't. If we continue talking here, the number of onlookers will only increase. Why don't you two talk privately?"

The attendant was unhappy, but the other party refused to give up easily. If the trouble continued, he feared the attendant would have to remove the veil in front of him.

The situation at that time was actually more unfavorable to him.

He could only swallow his anger, nod, and follow Zhao Xi to the next room.

The remaining men were still blocking the hall door, looking for Yuan Shanchuan.

Zhao Xi and his companion entered the room and, seizing the opportunity, immediately removed his veil.

The attendant, taken aback by his sudden action, became enraged and raised his hand to strike him.

Seeing this, the men rushed to stop them, but in the midst of the struggle, Shu Yu arrived with Da Niu.

She was about to say a few words to evade the question, but before she could even open her mouth, her expression froze instantly. She stared intently at the attendant, her face showing surprise.

How could it be him?
