Chapter 339: Seeing the White Bearded Arowana Again
After Ye Bai came out of the toilet, he returned to box No. 15 as if nothing had happened.
"Third Master, why are you back again?"
"After I leave, will anyone leave through the gate?"
Qi Tiezui shook his head. He had been staring at the door just now and saw no one going out.
"What happened?" Bai Zhixi asked.
Ye Bai briefly described the matter.
Bai Zhixi frowned slightly and said: "The young man and the epee disappeared at the same time. There are only two possibilities. One is that he took the epee and went out through the secret door left in the Crescent Hotel, and the other is that he is still staying in the Crescent Hotel."<
/p>
At this time, Zhang Wenyu reminded: "Third Master, the No. 2 box that just bid for the Overlord's Epee is filled with people from the Wang family."
"From the Wang family? How did you know?"
Qi Tiezui on the side said: "Third Master, after you left, Brother Wen Yu and I went out and we happened to meet you."
Ye Bai was a little angry: "You still go out together and leave your wife in the box?"
Bai Zhixi said: "Okay, I asked them to go out to find out the news."
Qi Tiezui couldn't help but said: "Third Master, Madam, our combined skills are very powerful. If we are really in danger, Madam will come to save us."
"Stop being so talkative." Bai Zhixi smiled, turned around and said, "Ye Bai, this Crescent Hotel may be related to my Bai family, why don't I go with you."
Ye Bai thought for a moment and nodded, "Okay."
On the high platform on the first floor, the half-way auction of "Along the River During the Qingming Festival" was suddenly suspended. It was probably because the Crescent Hotel discovered the situation in the basement of the cruise ship.
"Please stay in the box and seat, and do not move around without permission. The auction will continue immediately." The young woman repeated this sentence on the high platform.
Everyone discovered that many Crescent Hotel clerks had pistols tucked into their waists and were guarding the entrances and exits of various passages.
At this time, Ye Bai and Bai Zhixi found Er Nu and said they wanted to meet the manager of the Crescent Hotel.
"Sir, Miss, during the martial law period, please return to your original position."
Bai Zhixi said rather sternly: "My surname is Bai. I have something important to see your shopkeeper. You should report it first, and then your shopkeeper will decide whether to see us. If something important is missed, the responsibility will be yours."
"Okay, please wait a moment."
Ernu did not dare to delay and left in a hurry, going up to the third floor.
When I came back, a fat middle-aged man was walking in front.
"The second shopkeeper of the Yin family at the Crescent Hotel has met Miss Bai and Mr. Ye. Our treasure room has been stolen, so we are strictly on guard. If there is any lack of care, please forgive me."
p>
"Shopkeeper Yin is so polite. I wonder if we can find a quiet place. We have something important to tell you."
At this time, many people from other boxes came out and gathered in the corridor. Bai Zhixi glanced left and right, indicating that this was not a suitable place.
"Of course, please."
Shopkeeper Yin Er invited Ye Bai and Bai Zhixi to the deepest part of the third floor.
The space is small, the walls are piled with books, and there are scattered invitations on the table in front of you.
"I was too busy today and didn't have time to clean up. Please forgive me."
Bai Zhixi asked: "It's okay, Shopkeeper Yin, I wonder what treasures were stolen at the Crescent Hotel?"
Shopkeeper Yin Er said: "It's interesting to say that this thief is also a temperamental person. There are many precious calligraphy and painting ancient books in my treasure room. He didn't take anything but a thousand-year-old ginseng. I guess
He came here for Third Master’s thousand-year-old ginseng, but he couldn’t find it, so he took the thousand-year-old ginseng that can also cure diseases.”
"In the past, if this thousand-year-old ginseng was lost, I would not affect the progress of the auction. But this time it is different. This ginseng was sent to me for auction by a senior official. It is not from my Crescent Hotel, so
I have to give people an explanation."
Bai Zhixi glanced at Ye Bai and said, "There's no need to look for Shopkeeper Yin, the thousand-year-old ginseng is with us."
"Miss Bai, what do you mean?" Shopkeeper Yin Er frowned.
At this time, Ye Bai said: "I saw a sneaky man in the toilet. He had a good face and was wearing black cloth. I was about to go up and talk, but I saw this man attack me, but I couldn't defeat him after a few moves.
I left this behind."
Ye Bai raised his hand and took out a simple wooden box, which contained a thousand-year-old ginseng.
"It is indeed this thing."
Shopkeeper Yin Er quickly borrowed the wooden box, looked it over, and said with a smile: "Thank you Third Master and Miss Bai for your generous help. You really helped us a lot this time."
"We Jiumen and Crescent Hotel have always had good cooperation, so this little thing is certainly nothing." Ye Bai said, "However, I do have something I would like to ask shopkeeper Yin for help with."
"What is it? As long as I can help, I will definitely help."
"Where is the dark-skinned young man who took the photo of the Overlord's heavy sword?"
"This..." Shopkeeper Yin Er showed a tangled look: "Third Master, this is not because I don't help, but because our Crescent Hotel is based on integrity, and we cannot disclose customer privacy at will."
Ye Bai smiled and stopped talking.
Bai Zhixi said: "My elders in the Bai family told me that if you have anything to do, you can come to the shopkeeper of the Yin family of the Crescent Hotel. Since the shopkeeper can't tell me, let's go."
After saying that, he pulled Ye Bai out.
Shopkeeper Yin Er took a deep look at Bai Zhixi and sighed: "Miss Bai, wait a minute. Since Mr. Bai ordered me, I can't make an exception, but I still want to ask one more question, what will happen to you after you find the young man?"
?"
Ye Bai said: "As long as it is an innocent person, we will not harm his life, nor will we snatch his heavy sword."
"Okay, that's the case, I can accept it." Shopkeeper Yin Er said after a while: "This person took our boat and has been sent out of the dock. I will tell you the specific address after I find out."
"Thank you so much, Shopkeeper Yin."
Bai Zhixi thanked her and walked out of the small study with Ye Bai on her arm.
Inside the room, shopkeeper Yin Er couldn't help but sigh: "The people in the Bai family are all difficult masters."
In the corridor, Ye Bai said with a smile: "You still have a way."
Bai Zhixi said: "I have also found out a lot of information about the Bai family in the past few years. The Yin family was originally the slaves of my Bai family. After the Bai family was wiped out, the Yin family disappeared. How could the Crescent Hotel be like this a hundred years ago?
The great influence should be inseparable from Bai Gufeng's support. No matter how you say it, they owe us the Bai family, and they dare not offend us."
Ye Bai nodded.
The two of them walked to the stairs on the second and third floors. Ye Bai saw several stick slaves escorting a small object.
This thing is covered with black cloth and seems to be a transparent fish tank.
At this time, a word came from Ye Bai's consciousness.
"Ye Bai, save me! I'm the white-bearded arowana!"
Ye Bai paused, and Bai Zhixi couldn't help but ask: "Ye Bai, what's wrong?"
