This is a relatively sensitive question.

Xu Erlang did not dare to neglect it and immediately answered honestly, "Hua Chaodu doesn't seem to have any plans to expose the news recently. He is preparing something in private."

"He just wants to find out who betrayed him. He can't find out no matter how hard he tries. After all, he doesn't know how to use the hearts of those people."

Xu Erlang nodded in agreement.

The leader gave some instructions and prepared to leave. Maybe he was going back to his house on the top of the mountain, or maybe he had some leisure time and was going to watch the lantern show again. However, Xu Erlang seemed to remember something and asked again, "You asked me to contact those famous intelligence departments last time. They were all willing to spread some of the news we sent, but only Huacilou did not agree."

"Huacilou?"

The leader turned his head, thought for a while, and suddenly sneered for some reason.

"Don't worry about it. Go and use the hidden chess piece we arranged before."

Xu Erlang knew what the "hidden chess piece" the leader was talking about. It was a young boy with strong ambitions.

The kid looked like a smart person, but Xu Erlang had been in the underworld for so long, and he had seen the most stories of smart people who capsized in the gutter.

The ancients often said that great wisdom is like stupidity, and this sentence does make sense. Maybe the kid is considered a rare smart person in the eyes of ordinary people, but Xu Erlang didn't like him very much. After all, he only liked interesting people.

Although he had many things in his mind, on the surface, Xu Erlang still didn't look any different.

"Got it."

...

The inn has been cleaned up in the past few days. In order to take care of the employees' mood, the inn has been in a semi-closed state for the past two days. Guests who come just for meals are no longer entertained. Some guests who stay in the hotel are also not entertained unless they look dusty, hungry and tired.

Feng Qing was a hard-working employee after all, so she would not easily do something to betray her class. The most painful thing for her was the few days before the Chinese New Year. The leaders counted on the stopwatch to take holidays and did not take care of the employees at all, especially when other places were on holiday, but they were not on holiday, and they had to let the employees experience what it meant to spend the rest of their lives.

Xiaobai didn't have any homework these two days, and it was obvious that she was having a lot of fun in the inn. Feng Qing didn't know if next year would be her zodiac year, after all, he didn't know his exact age, so he bought her a red dress, which made her look like a lucky doll.

"Don't move, let me take a picture." Feng Qing forced Xiaobai to take a few pictures, and Xiaobai felt wronged in the end, looking at the shopkeeper pitifully.

"Don't move, this is the buff I gave you." Feng Qing gave Xiaobai two cute little chicks, and he looked so cute that he was about to explode, which made Feng Qing rub his little face for a long time.

"The shopkeeper's bad taste is really too good." Chu Changzui rubbed his slightly red face and walked back. He didn't think that the shopkeeper really treated him as a child. He just thought that this was a special bad taste of the shopkeeper. Although this was very unpleasant, he was the shopkeeper anyway.

An Huoshaxi also celebrated the New Year in Central Plains for the first time. These days, she wore a New Year's suit that Feng Qing bought for her online, with two furry braids. She often sat on a chair at the door, looking at everything around her curiously. Usually,

Feng Xiruo didn't talk to this little girl alone, not only because men and women should not touch each other, but also because he could smell an indescribable murderous aura from this little girl.

He was always particularly sensitive to this aspect.

Feng Xiruo usually keeps her distance from this kind of guy who could potentially kill people, but maybe because they have lived together for some time, or maybe because An Huoshaxi looks relatively well-behaved, Feng Xiruo talked to her today, "Did you never celebrate the New Year where you were before?"

An Huoshaxi glanced at him, then shook her head, "We celebrate once every spring when the first rain falls. That is our biggest festival of the year, but this is indeed my first time celebrating the New Year." "

Is that so..." Feng Xiruo looked at An Huoshaxi in front of her, and suddenly felt that she was quite pitiful.

Anhuo Shaxi didn't feel pitiful. She was just curious. In fact, since she came to the Central Plains, she has been curious about everything around her. This place is really very different from the place where she used to live.

Her big cat eyes stared at everything around her. When she was in the desert, she also stared at everything around her with such eyes. Finally, she found an opportunity to kill the elder and escaped from there.

For a killer, observation is always her instinct. When encountering something unfamiliar to her, she will stay aside and observe carefully. After observing for a long time, she will naturally understand what is going on.

When she was following a cat and a dog and looking at the pedestrians on the street, suddenly a person slowly walked towards the inn.

An Huoshaxi looked over there, and her eyes suddenly lit up.

Feng Xiruo, who was standing next to her, inexplicably felt that An Huoshaxi's eyes at this moment were like Li Xiaoqi seeing a ball of yarn, and her whole body suddenly became energetic.

He also looked over there curiously, and happened to see a young and handsome guy walking towards them.

Alas, it's this pretty boy again. Feng Xiruo's expression instantly became ambiguous.

This guy often comes to their place, and he is already very familiar with this person. This guy can even sneak into the back kitchen to get food with ease, and can be said to be a non-staff member of the inn.

"Master." Bai Ming said politely while looking at An Huo Sha Xi. He has always paid more attention to etiquette in this regard. Although An Huo Sha Xi sometimes told him that he didn't need to be so reserved, he would never fall behind in the rules every time they met.

Hua Chaodu was busy with the affairs of the West Factory recently. Before he left, he specifically said that if anything happened in the inn, they should tell him immediately and he would come back immediately.

Hua Chaodu naturally told everyone in the inn the truth about his previous experience. When they heard Hua Chaodu say that he couldn't find the traitor, everyone in the inn was naturally shocked. After all, it was incredible that a spy could make the Jinyiwei unable to find any clues.

"This group of people are just like ghosts. I don't even know where they hide normally." There was a hint of dissatisfaction in Hua Chaodu's tone. Before he left, he said vigorously, "The leader of the moment is a master at playing with people's hearts. Since he has already attacked me, I very much suspect that he will attack other people in the inn next."

Sure enough, this sentence soon came true.

An Huo Sha Xi has indeed experienced some dangerous things recently. As a temporary host, there are not many people in the world who can hide things from her. However, recently, An Huo Sha Xi found that she seemed to be being targeted by others.

This is an unfounded guess, which is the perception of danger and murderous aura that she has in her bones.

She told her subordinates about this guess, and her subordinates did become highly alert, but it was still useless. The fear and anxiety still existed.

However, they still gained nothing from it.

An Huoshaxi originally thought that she would not gain anything today, but who would have thought that when Bai Ming came, he whispered in her ear, "We caught someone."

"Who?" An Huoshaxi immediately became excited.

"It's an old beggar."

An Huoshaxi immediately prepared to go and see. She put on her clothes and went out without looking back. Before leaving, she said, "Don't save me dinner tonight."

Feng Xiruo looked at An Huoshaxi's back as she left, and she also muttered in her heart, the Beggars' Gang should not accept this kind of business, right? Why follow An Huoshaxi for no reason?

When he was wondering, he suddenly heard the shopkeeper say, "Xingxing, help me pick up something."

Feng Xiruo didn't think much, turned around and took a small package from the shopkeeper's hand, and then went out.

An Huoshaxi and Bai Ming came to a teahouse. This place was a property under the name of Huacilou, and the old beggar was sitting in the middle of the teahouse, closing his eyes, looking comfortable and peaceful.

Just from his expression, it is impossible to tell whether he is a stalker or a killer, but the people in Huacilou did say that the old beggar had been following An Huoshaxi for some time.

As soon as he entered the room, the old beggar's eyes slowly opened. His vision was a little cloudy, and he looked like an ordinary old man.

If it weren't for the occasional flash of golden light that only appears after the internal strength reaches its peak, no one would take him seriously.

After seeing the two people coming in, the old beggar's face was still calm.

Bai Ming said to An Huoshaxi beside him: "This is the man. We have been interrogating him in various ways for a day, but we can't get him to tell us who is behind him."

"Who sent you here? Why are you following me?" An Huoshaxi walked up slowly and asked.

"Be loyal to the person who entrusted you with the task." The old beggar glanced at An Huoshaxi, then glanced at Bai Ming behind her, and finally exhaled softly and said this.

"Who entrusted you with the task? Who are you loyal to?" Bai Ming had always been loyal to An Huoshaxi, and before she could say anything, he asked first.

"Wait." An Huoshaxi took another look at the bag that the old beggar had placed on the ground beside her, and suddenly realized something.

The status of this old beggar in the beggar gang is definitely not low, and it may even be very scary.

Who would let such a person do things?

No, to put it another way, who would he be willing to obey?
