In Li Dong's room, Bai Shier and Xin Sanqi finally met.

Although it was not the first time the two of them met, after all, the east of the city said it was big, and Xin Sanqi was the man in charge of the update. He looked up and down with the guards who needed to patrol outside at night. Naturally, it was impossible that he had never met before.

However, this is the first time the two have gotten together alone.

"Okay, don't be stubborn, just sit down, sit down."

While Bai Shier and Xin Sanqi were standing and looking at each other, Li Dong, who was following Bai Shier, walked into the room with a wooden pallet. Seeing the two of them looking a little restrained and arrogant, he quickly spoke to them.

As the owner of the room, he was familiar with the two of them, so he naturally acted as the introducer.

"Come on, before you finish this first glass of wine, you will get to know each other."

Li Dong, who placed the wine pot on the tray, the wine glasses and chopsticks that Bai Shier had taken on the table, was Bai Shier, Xin Sanqi and his wine glasses, and then picked up the wine glasses and said to the two.

"As for this guy, you should have seen him. It is Xin Sa, the man in charge of the night patrol of our Dongcheng."

Li Dong first pointed at Xin Sanqi and introduced to Bai Shi Er.

"My little brother Bai Wu, I have met Brother Xin."

After listening to Li Dong's introduction, Bai Shier quickly put down his wine glass, stood up and hugged Xin Sanqi with fists.

"Where is where, Brother Bai is welcome."

Xin Sanqi seemed to be startled, quickly bounced off the stool, and also clasped his fists and bowed, and replied politely.

"I'm just two years old, so I can't be so polite to Brother Bai."

"Okay, okay, you two don't have to be so polite, sit down and drink, drink."

Seeing that the two of them were still so polite, Li Dong deliberately showed some dissatisfaction on his face and said to them.

And with his lively atmosphere mixed with wine and dishes, the politeness between the two finally subsided a lot.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors, Li Dong observed Bai Shi Er's expression and felt that the time was almost ripe, so he couldn't help but ask the questions he had mentioned to Xin Sanqi before.

"This is a matter..."

When Bai Shier heard Li Dong's inquiry, his hand that picked up the wine glass couldn't help but paused, but it immediately returned to normal. After putting the wine glass on the table, he frowned.

"I'm going to hide it from you, Head Li, I was thirsty at the beginning. When I was having a tea shop on the roadside, I accidentally heard a few whispers from the rivers and lakes. As for whether the "shadowless mouse" had sneaked into the palace city afterwards, I could not find out what I could do in this small guardhouse that stayed in Dongcheng all day.

I don’t even know whether someone has entered the city or not. Then, it is naturally even more impossible for me to know when what you said will end this kind of thing."

“That’s true.”

Although Li Dong had already prepared something before, after hearing Bai Shier say this with his own ear, his face was still disappointed.

"Hey, at noon, the magistrate sent someone to invite Brother Bai, have you been to the county government office? Why, Brother Bai hasn't heard any news in the county government office?"

Xin Sanqi, who knew the "truth", asked at this time with a somewhat "deathful" attitude.

"Ha, Brother Xin is so arrogant. I am so scared before I arrived at the county government office. I was afraid that the magistrate would blame me for the blame. After arriving at the county government office, my heart was even more like a drumbeat. I had no courage or leisure to inquire about the news from the county government office."

Bai Shier, who heard Xin Sanqi's questioning, did not have any doubts about Xin Sanqi because it was not surprising that the other party would have such a thought, so he just pretended to be bitter and smiled bitterly and "expose his own shortcomings."

"Xiaobai's words are justified. As the saying goes, "The yamen faces south. Don't come in if you have any reason or money!" Which of the masters is easy to meet? Not to mention Xiaobai, even if I was called to the county magistrate by the county magistrate, I would probably have weak legs."

Li Dong did not contempt for Bai Shier's behavior of "exposure of his shortcomings". On the contrary, he was very considerate of Bai Shier and even felt resentful.

"Who said no?!"

Bai Shier quickly agreed, then a little bit of gratitude appeared on his face and a little bit of fear in his eyes.

"However, at noon today, I saw that the magistrate was a good official with a conscience. After I explained the situation in detail, although I was disappointed, I finally didn't think about making a fuss and took the head on my head to punish me."

"Well, as you say that, our county magistrate Huang, Lord Huang, is really a good official."

This time, it was Xin Sanqi's turn to agree indifferently.

"Hmm? Brother Xin, how do you know that the magistrate's surname is Huang?"

Bai Shier, who didn't want to continue to get rid of this matter and was worried that he would lose his words, quickly pretended to be very curious and changed the subject.

"Hey, who doesn't know about this kind of thing."

Xin Sanqi did not answer, but Li Dong spoke first.

"That's Xiaobai, you just arrived in Hongdu Prefecture, so you're not familiar with it. After you stay in this prefecture for a long time, you will understand. But you can't hide any secrets in this prefecture."

Speaking of this, Li Dong's face inexplicably showed a little pride and pride.

"oh?"

Bai Shier's face suddenly showed greater curiosity. He hurriedly picked up the wine pot and put it on Li Dongman, lowered his voice and continued to ask.

"Does Li Toutiao also know the names and secrets of the high-ranking officials in the government office and the governor's office?"

"That's certain."

Li Dong, who was drunk, slapped his chest and raised his head, his face full of satisfaction.

"Then let me tell you about it. Li Tou, you know that I came from a small countryside. I have a dark look at this kind of thing. Li Tou, tell me, and it will also make me more knowledgeable. If I go home in the future, I will have the capital to brag about with the same villages and fellow villagers, right?"

"Hey, you guys are so promising?"

...

Xin Sanqi watched Li Dong's appearance as he was a little taken away by Bai Shier's praises for more than a few times, and couldn't help but sneer in his heart.

As the person involved, Li Dong was circled in by Bai Shier, but he could see clearly.

Bai Shier obviously didn't want to continue talking about his previous affairs in the county government, so he deliberately took advantage of the topic and pulled the topic apart.

However, he had to admit in his heart that such a simple way to change topics was indeed very effective, especially for those who were good at face-saving Li Dong, who liked to be flattered and praised.

Xin Sanqi, who was thinking like this, did not stop communicating with Li Dong and Bai Shi Er because of this. From time to time, he followed Li Dong's words and added a sentence or echoed a sentence.

The more he could feel the power of Bai Shier, the more he dared not be careless, so as not to reveal any flaws and be suspected by the other party.

The three of them were back and forth, and the scene seemed very harmonious. There was no sign of two of them. In fact, they were thinking about their own little Jiujiu in their hearts, but they were just acting on the scene.

When the night became darker and the two wine pots could not pour out a drop of wine, and the table was even more messy, the two guys with their own thoughts still had clear eyes and no drunkenness. But Bai Shier and Xin Sanqi could flatter and praise him. The only one of the three was Li Dong, who was indeed "really" drinking, was no longer unconscious.

...

After leaving Li Dong's room and walking on the way home, Xin Sanqi looked at the crescent moon above his head, and felt inexplicably restless.

He had a premonition that it seemed to be an uneasy night tonight.

However, immediately, he couldn't help laughing.

With the shocking news brought by the spy of Team E before sunset, how could it be peaceful tonight?

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but stop and looked in the direction of the county government.

If the news that the spy from Team E was true, then the county government should have taken action, right?

"Why!"

He couldn't help but sigh.

"After tonight, I don't know if I can continue to stay here and continue to live the leisurely life I am now!"

After talking to himself, he stepped apart and walked towards home again.

His speed was not fast, but because the distance was not far, he had already stood in front of his house in less than half an incense stick.

He reached out and pushed open the unlocked door. Just as he was about to step across the threshold, he was suddenly shocked. His expression changed on his face. His right foot, which had already lifted up and had already stepped over the threshold, suddenly shrank back as if he had touched a ignition oil pan. He followed, and he staggered back several steps.

But just as he was about to open his throat and shout for help from the wealthy and wealthy guards not far away, a familiar voice came from the room.

"It's me!"

The voice was pressed very low, but Xin Sanqi immediately recognized the other party's voice, and the stone in his heart fell to the ground, and the cry for help that had already flowed to his mouth was suppressed again.

After looking around carefully, he found that no one noticed his abnormal behavior, Xin Sanqi stepped into the house again.

"Squeak!"

The door was closed due to the harsh noise caused by the friction of the door shaft due to lack of grease lubrication.

"Why are you back?"

As the door was closed, Xin Sanqi's voice also sounded in the dark.

"Of course I will come back only after I get the order. But where did you go? Why did you come back so late?"

Wu Erba's voice came to Xin Sanqi's ears almost at the same time with the light of the fire slash.

"It's just going to meet an old friend and have a few drinks."

Xin Sanqi walked to the table with the oil lamp, picked up the oil lamp and walked to Wu Erba, reached out to lit the oil lamp with a fire slit, and said calmly.

"After all, this incident happened, maybe I will never have the chance to see my old friend again."

"Well, you can rest assured about this now. You will have the opportunity to meet your old friends in the future."

Wu Erba couldn't help but cough, covered up his inner embarrassment, and spoke.

"Um?"

Xin Sanqi couldn't help but look at Wu Erba, raising his eyebrows, as if he didn't understand Wu Erba's meaning.
