Chapter 290 Rumors
"Mother Zhou, we have searched everywhere and still can't find Ayimu."
The thugs bravely reported it to Zhou's mother.
"Impossible. A living person cannot be blown to ashes."
"You want to see people when you are alive, you want to see corpses when you die!"
"Keep looking for me, don't stop!"
Zhou’s mother shouted hysterically.
The start of the night was perfect, but it ended with a slap in the face.
But they rummaged through the ruins of the stage several times, but maybe they couldn't find Ayimu.
Only the black robe she originally carried fell to the ground in tatters, unnoticed.
Li Xuan couldn't help but be a little stunned after seeing this result.
Although the previous explosion was powerful, it was absolutely impossible to blow up a person without even a bit of dregs left.
Not to mention the corpses, there wasn't even much blood near the stage.
Only the area where Hou San was found had many bloodstains belonging to him.
After Hou San was sent there, several other mothers on Hua Street came to see Zhou's mother, but their attitudes were not very good.
After all, anyone who is stopped and taken the blame together without any reason is unlikely to have a good temper.
But Zhou’s mother is not a vegetarian either.
Now that Ayimu's whereabouts are related to the rest of her life, there is no reason left to face them at this time.
Zhou’s mother turned on the crazy batch mode, which forced several other mothers to stay away.
In the end, we had to discuss rescuing Hou San first.
Even if the worst happened and Hou San didn't survive, they could still put the blame on Zhou's mother.
Something happened to Hou Sanben on Hu Yulou's stage. If Zhou's mother doesn't bear the responsibility, who will.
It's just that now Zhou's mother is a little anxious and her eyes are red, and several other mothers have not come to force her at this time.
Now Mother Zhou only has eyes for Ayimu's whereabouts and is unable to think about anything else.
Li Xuan smelled the string. The place was filled with a pungent smell, which was very similar to the smell of firecrackers he had smelled during the New Year when he was a child.
"The taste is quite good, and the power is not small."
“I just don’t know whose handiwork it is.”
"There must be something strange about Ayimu's disappearance that I don't know about."
Li Xuan became interested.
He was more interested in this kind of case than the theft case in Princess Ankang's hands.
But now it seems that if there is no trace of Ayimu, maybe Ayimu is the biggest suspect.
When the oiran paraded through the streets earlier, Ayimu danced on the stage for a long time, but the stage remained silent.
As a result, after Hou San finished the reward, he went on stage to deliver flowers, and the stage exploded.
It's hard not to let Li Xuan think too much. The person behind the scenes is targeting Hou San, not Ayimu.
Li Xuan was even guessing that maybe all of this was directed and acted by Ayimu.
By performing such a scene, she could escape from Hu Yulou's control.
Although Li Xuan didn't know what the contract between her and Hu Yulou was, he thought that for a new oiran like her, the conditions couldn't be that good for her.
Li Xuan thought about it, and now it seems that Ayimu is the only one who can profit from this matter.
In addition, Ayimu might have a grudge against Hou San.
Of course, all this is Li Xuan's own speculation, and there is no substantial evidence.
The biggest doubt now is Ayimu who disappeared from the scene of the explosion.
If she was a victim, there was no reason for her to disappear so quietly.
But Li Xuan thought, maybe she was also kidnapped.
In a situation like the one just now, without preparation in advance, it would be difficult for ordinary people to escape from such an explosion.
At this time, Li Xuan's eyes suddenly lit up.
He thought of a detail.
The lanterns on Flower Street were extinguished first, and then the explosion sounded.
In this case, there was a small gap before the explosion.
In this small gap, perhaps the secret of Ayimu's disappearance is hidden.
"It's interesting."
Li Xuan paced back and forth on the string excitedly.
At this time, the commotion on Flower Street gradually subsided.
Goons holding torches lit up the central intersection, allowing people to see the stage that had been blown to pieces.
The dying Hou San was hidden by the mothers on Flower Street, so when the light returned to the road, no one saw the unlucky guy.
But Li Xuan saw another familiar figure.
Not far from the ruins of the stage, Zhao Si was among the crowd.
He was looking at the ruins of the stage, frowning, not knowing what he was thinking.
Compared with Hou San gathering a group of friends, Zhao Si seemed to be alone, and there seemed to be no companions in the crowd.
When Li Xuan saw Zhao Si, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
"I almost forgot about this guy!"
When he saw Zhao Si, Li Xuan remembered that he had not seen Hou San's group of friends until now.
Hou San was bombed like that, but they didn't come looking for him.
"Gan, isn't this too real?"
Li Xuan looked around at the crowd below for several times, but found no trace of those people at all.
I don’t know if he went home to hide, or if he found another place to have fun.
Li Xuan shook his head, not expecting any loyalty from Hou San's friends.
It's just that Zhao Si's appearance here made him a little concerned.
At this time, the news that Hu Yulou couldn't find Ayimu spread, and suddenly someone in the crowd shouted: "Ghost, it must be a ghost!" "The female ghost on Hua Street is back again!" At first, these voices were scattered, but as enthusiastic people spread the knowledge, an old news was gradually brought to light. Don't look at this Hua Street, which is usually full of lights, wine, women, and money. But the brighter the place, the deeper the darkness. There are many miserable women on Hua Street, and there are even more who died with resentment. In addition, there is a lot of yin here, so there are always one or two strange things. As a result, there are a few ghost stories circulating on Hua Street every year. And without exception, the protagonists in the stories are all female ghosts. Such a weird thing happened tonight, so naturally someone mentioned it again. Seeing that the rumors of haunting were getting more and more true, several mothers who were in charge of Hua Street frowned. Haunting is not good for their business. If it was a story about a ghost encounter, it would be fine, but tonight's incident would obviously have a negative impact, so they would not tolerate such rumors.
Several mothers in charge quickly sent people to control the situation and persuaded the guests on the street to return to their respective brothels.
There was no way for today's parade of courtesans to end properly, so it could only end hastily.
The mothers promised to make up for this month's settlement ceremony later, and offered a 50% discount on the entire street, which persuaded people.
Most people slowly walked to their respective brothels, and a small number of people refused to leave, wanting to watch the excitement to the end.
But as the dusk deepened, the wind on the street became colder and colder.
Coupled with the tempting 50% discount, some people have already planned to grit their teeth and upgrade themselves.
And in this way, the top courtesans who were already quite popular will be even busier tonight.
In order to get a number, some people have already started jogging back to make an appointment for tonight's service.
The mothers who were in charge of the flower street knew how to control the customers, so they were all sent away with a simple discount.
Li Xuan looked at this group of evil spirits and couldn't help shaking his head.
But when he was distracted, Zhao Si disappeared.
When he turned around again, he found that he couldn't find Zhao Si.
It seemed that he should have returned to the brothel, but he didn't know which one he went to.
"This fat guy is so fast!"
Li Xuan was also a little surprised. He didn't expect that Zhao Si looked fat, but his speed was not slow at all.
After dealing with the mothers at the scene, they came over and surrounded Zhou Mama of Hu Yulou. This time, they asked her to talk without question.
Zhou Mama didn't find Ayimu for a long time, and she had gradually calmed down.
Despair enveloped her, and she didn't dare to imagine what she would encounter in the future.
But she was under the eaves now, so she had to bow her head.
In order to solve her crisis, Zhou Mama might have to seek help from these people later.
Therefore, she cooperated obediently this time and did not get hysterical again.
Unexpectedly, they actually invited Mother Zhou to her own Hu Yulou.
Li Xuan hurriedly followed and went in directly from the second-floor window.
He found that Princess Ankang and others had returned to the previous private room.
Princess Ankang and Yu'er were originally looking at the movement at the door and found that a group of mothers from Huajie came together.
But just when their attention was attracted, Li Xuan suddenly got into Princess Ankang's arms.
Li Xuan originally wanted to scare Princess Ankang, but she was not frightened at all, and subconsciously hugged Li Xuan with her backhand.
Li Xuan, who was captured with his backhand, was confused, and did not expect Princess Ankang to react so quickly.
But the next moment, she saw Princess Ankang looking at the extra Li Xuan in her arms after realizing it, and said in surprise:
"Ah Xuan, you are back."
Princess Ankang greeted Li Xuan with a smile, and did not forget to gossip:
"By the way, did you find anything?"
Li Xuan immediately used his tail to write what he had just seen on Princess Ankang's hand, and did not forget to share his own guesses.
"Ah, has the beautiful dancing lady disappeared?"
Princess Ankang exclaimed.
Princess Yuan'an also quickly cast a curious look.
Princess Ankang also did not forget to share gossip with everyone, and told everyone what Li Xuan had seen.
But she deliberately concealed Li Xuan's various guesses.
After speaking, Princess Ankang looked down at Li Xuan in her arms and said:
"Ah Xuan, you don't know yet, the previously injured Hou San was sent here, and now he seems to be upstairs."
Princess Ankang said something shocking, and pointed to the top of their heads.
Li Xuan was stunned, and did not expect Hou San to be hidden here.
"It was the eunuchs who discovered this." Princess Ankang whispered in Li Xuan's ear, pointing at the eunuch in flowery clothes who led the team. The eunuch in flowery clothes stepped forward silently and bowed to Princess Ankang. "Someone brought a big box up earlier, but the eunuchs noticed it." "Then Hou San's condition is very bad, and he is probably dead." Li Xuan also nodded silently. He saw with his own eyes what Hou San was blown into. In his condition, it was indeed difficult for him to survive.
At this time, Zhou's mother led the other mothers who were in charge of Flower Street and headed upstairs, passed the second floor, and then continued upward.
Li Xuan's eyes lit up, and Princess Ankang also understood and gently threw him out.
This time, the eunuchs in colorful clothes did not stop Li Xuan's movements, but could not help but look at him a few more times.
Li Xuan sneaked forward from under the tables and chairs and followed the mothers who dominated the flower street.
