After Qin Yiheng finished speaking, he quickly flipped through the window. I saw him fall to the ground smoothly after two strokes. Not daring to waste time, he quickly put on his coat and walked towards him.
The hotel itself is not big, and the corridors are extremely narrow. As I walked down, I was always very uncertain. If someone came to attack me, I didn't even have room to dodge.
Fortunately, I went down tremblingly, but nothing happened. It's just that the creaking sound of the hotel's dilapidated wooden stairs sounds creepy.
The proprietor of the hotel was still there, half leaning on the reception desk, listening to the radio. I didn't dare to go there rashly, so I carefully observed whether there was an ambush, and after I confirmed that there were no other people hiding behind the front desk, I walked over to say hello to the boss.
The boss himself is very enthusiastic, and he wanted to chat with me before, seeing that I took the initiative to come to him, he immediately chatted with me in a dialect.
I was really not interested, so I sneaked a glance outside the hotel door, and saw that Qin Yiheng was already winking at me secretly. I went straight to the point and said, I am Wanjia, and I am here to pick up things this time.
I don't know if this sentence is a secret signal, anyway, the boss was stunned for a moment after hearing it, and stared at me blankly for a while, then bent down and started to rummage through the cabinet under the front desk.
I couldn't help but take a step back, everything is unclear right now. If the boss didn't find me something after searching for a long time, but took out a gun and pointed it at me, then he couldn't afford it and walked away.
After waiting for a long time, the boss straightened up, but his hands were empty. He looked outside the door vigilantly, only said please follow me, turned around and headed for the stairs.
Now I was a little hesitant, wondering if I should follow. From the expression and eyes of the boss just now, I always feel that he has discovered Qin Yiheng lurking outside the door. I'm afraid this is a trick to lure the snake out of the hole.
After exchanging glances with Qin Yiheng, I decided to go upstairs. This boss is about fifty years old, and he is not very strong. If he is tough, he may not be my opponent. Thinking of this, I still have some confidence.
The two quickly went up to the second floor, and the boss took me straight to the end of the corridor. He opened the innermost door and pointed to the inside of the house. They are all here. After so many years, someone finally came to pick them up.
Although the boss had an accent, I heard this sentence very clearly. I didn't answer, I was a little dazed by what I saw. I saw that the layout of this guest room was full of all kinds of bags, large and small. At first glance, it looks like a warehouse. People don't know where to start.
I never thought that there would be so many things that I was asked to retrieve in the text message!
I looked at the hotel owner and tried to restrain my astonishment. "Who got these things?"
The boss frowned when I asked, this...
I screamed in my heart that it was not good, my question was a bit careless, I am afraid the boss has already begun to suspect me. Quickly remedied and said, when did the friend I sent the things leave
After saying this, the boss's expression became even more serious. I didn't know what to do for a while. Just when I was in a hurry, from the corner of my eye, I suddenly caught a glimpse of a person flashing out from the corridor, grabbing the shoulder of the hotel owner, and pushing hard. The boss himself was standing next to me, staggered, and instinctively grabbed me. I didn't expect such a thing to happen at first, and now the two of them were pushed into the room in a daze, and then the door was closed with a bang.
The guest room of the hotel was not big at first, and there were so many things piled up in this room, and now there was another person standing there, basically there was no place to step down. Fortunately, I reacted fairly quickly and supported the wall without tripping over something under my feet. The boss wasn't so lucky, he patted it into a pile of packages in a daze, only to hear ouch.
I looked up, and the clenched fist couldn't help but loosen. It was Qin Yiheng who winked at me, took a step to help the boss up and said, we have no malicious intentions, but if you don't tell the truth, I think it's hard to be kind.
Although the boss seemed to fall heavily, but after all, there is a package under his body as a buffer, so it stands to reason that there will be no serious problems. But Qin Yiheng made him feel a little dazed, and he didn't open his mouth for a while.
Qin Yiheng swept away an open space with his feet, let the boss sit down, and asked, who sent these things? When was it delivered again
The boss finally uttered a few words tremblingly, "Forgive me, spare my life."
"I won't hurt you, but you have to answer questions. I don't like to listen to nonsense." Qin Yiheng picked up a package casually. Who sent this thing
The boss nodded frantically and said, I... I can't remember! The things in this room were not delivered by one person!
oh? Qin Yiheng clicked his tongue, then continue to talk about what's going on! Try to be as clear as possible!
Qin Yiheng pointed to the seat beside him and asked me to sit over. My original plan was that since someone had tortured me, it would be best for me to let the wind go. Seeing this, I had no choice but to listen to the movement outside the door with my ears pricked up, while sitting down and listening to the boss explain the ins and outs. This surprised me and Qin Yiheng.
The boss's Mandarin is very poor, and Qin Yiheng made him too nervous. The narration is choppy and there is a lot of worthless nonsense. Still, it made the whole thing pretty clear.
According to the boss, this hotel has been open for decades. As the only hotel in the town, although it is not enough to make a fortune, it is still possible to barely maintain food and clothing. This small town is very remote, and prices are relatively very low. He is also at ease. It's just that I forgot the exact year it started, about twenty years ago, a customer suddenly came to the store. The guest didn't like to talk, but he was very generous, so the boss couldn't help but pay more attention. According to the boss, the guest's dress was also unusual, as if he was going on a long-distance trip, and he was carrying all kinds of tools for survival in the wild. At that time, these tools were very new to the boss who had not seen the so-called hiking and donkey friends. This made the impression even deeper.
But the most memorable thing for the boss was that the guest was leaving for another place after staying for two days. Before leaving, I gave the boss a package and put a lot of money in it. I told the boss that someone who claimed to be from the Wan family would come to pick it up in the future. I hope the boss will keep it safe.
Originally, the folk customs in this small town were simple and simple, but now people have released money. The boss naturally agreed, and the things were kept intact. But for a long period of time after that, many guests came and went in the hotel, but they never got the Wan family.
What surprised him even more was that not only the Wan family didn't wait. After that, more and more strange people began to live in the store one after another. Everyone was dressed in the same way, as if they were going on a survival adventure. Moreover, these people were very generous, and they also left packages when they left. Even the words given to the boss are exactly the same, and tens of thousands of family members will come to pick them up in the future.
At first, the boss was also very strange about this time. One thought it might be a spy organization. For a long time, I have been hesitating whether to report to the official. But as more and more people like this came, and more and more frequently, he gradually became less vigilant. After all, no one came to pick up the packages kept by these people, not to mention that there was a storage fee for them. This is far more than what he earns from running a hotel in a small town with poor income, and no one wants to have trouble with money.
What's more, the boss thought about it, even if he could give such a large amount of money to save the package, if one day he really waited for someone to pick up the package, it might be an astronomical sum. But what he didn't expect was that he waited for so many years. Later, he gradually ignored the need to wait for someone to pick it up, and just kept the packages mechanically. Similarly, the number of strange residents who left packages is decreasing year by year, and they have not come back at all in recent years.
So, when I told him that I was from the Wan family, he was very surprised.
Dad talked a lot, and kept declaring that he hadn't opened the package or made crooked ideas. It is estimated that Qin Yiheng might attack him. I tend to believe the boss, not because I have a guarantee for his people, but because I glanced through a few packages and found that the things inside are very ordinary, and they are all ordinary belongings. Of course, this does not rule out that the valuables or valuables inside have been embezzled by the boss.
Qin Yiheng asked again emphatically about the appearance and physical characteristics of the guests who left the package. From the description of the boss, this group of people did not seem to have any strong characteristics. Those between the ages of twenty and forty are considered young and middle-aged.
I heard this and felt that this was not a line. According to the boss, these people must have come to carry out certain actions, and naturally only young and middle-aged people are suitable. It's just that the only thing I'm curious about is what these people are here for.
I comforted the boss with a few words, let him calm down first. Pull Qin Yiheng aside and quietly ask him the purpose of these people.
If they were on an expedition, there were two possibilities. One is that they came back from the expedition and lived here. One is that they are about to go on an expedition and live here to rest. If it's the latter, that's all. If it turns out to be the former, then I'm afraid these people brought something after their expedition, and those things are probably left in the package, and most of them have been embezzled by the boss.
Qin Yiheng thought for a while and said, this is the nearest town to the besieged city, the only possibility is that those people also went to the besieged city. The reason why the package was left may be that those people knew that this trip was extremely dangerous, and they might never come back.
Qin Yiheng's words woke me up, since Wan's family had to pick up the package left behind. The co-authors themselves are Wanjia? Going to the besieged city one after another, all wanting to unlock the things locked on the chains
This makes total sense! In order to unravel the haze and curse that enveloped the entire family. They have to!
I said, why are we suddenly asked to accept these packages? Is it because the thing on the chain has been let go? Now the dust has settled
"I don't know, we won't understand until we take it all apart." Qin Yiheng said to the boss, "It's been hard work just now, now please help us unpack all the packages." We will give more money and will not break our promise.
