Everyone was startled and immediately became alert. They subconsciously looked at the people around them warily.
Seeing this, the clerk of the black market felt a headache.
However, Zhao Xi was still unwilling to let it go. He continued to ask, “Just now. Who just entered the door? Come out and let me recognize you.”
There were only three or four people who had just entered, but they were quickly pushed out.
When the other customers realized that they had not lost anything, they looked at them as if they were watching a show.
Zhao Xi looked at a few people and finally stopped at the attendant wearing a curtain hat, sizing him up.
“Take off your curtain hat and let me see.”
The attendant immediately took a step back and said in a low voice, “You’ve got the wrong person. I’m not a thief.”
The clerk from the black market also came forward and whispered, “Sir, you said that the thief was wearing brown clothes. This person is not. Don’t be impatient. We will search carefully and will find your money bag.”
The people who came to the black market were either rich or n.o.ble. The shop a.s.sistant was also very worried that they would have a conflict. If that happened, it would be their fault.
At this moment, a waiter had already gone to call the steward.
However, Zhao Xi sneered. “That thief was wearing brown clothes but wasn’t there no one present? Perhaps he had disguised himself to hide from the public. This isn’t an auction house, so why is he wearing a curtained hat?” The attendant was angry. “l came from the auction house.”
“That’s even stranger. Why aren’t you at the auction house? Why are you in this hall all alone?”
The attendant sneered. “l think you’re looking for trouble with me. I can’t be bothered to talk to you. I’ll go back to the small building now.”
He swung his sleeves and was about to leave when Zhao Xi grabbed him. “l think you’re feeling guilty and want to use this to escape. Why don’t you take off your curtain hat? We can all take a look and know if you’re a thief.” Zhao Xi pointed at the attendant and said to the black market workers, “Don’t you think he’s very suspicious?”
The guys laughed dryly. It was indeed suspicious.
However, according to the rules of the black market, even if a customer did something suspicious, as long as it did not harm the black market, they were not qualified to ask.
However, the ones who were looking for trouble were also guests. Moreover, they did not find Yuan Shanchuan today, so they were indeed guilty. Therefore, his att.i.tude was inevitably not strong enough. He could only stabilize them first.
Fortunately, these two people did not look like the main family. They should be the servants of the main family, which made things easier.
One of the waiters whispered to Zhao Xi, “Customer, this is not the place to talk. Why don’t we go to the room over there and slowly explain?”
After saying that, he turned to the attendant and said, “Sir, we believe that you are innocent, but this sir doesn’t. If you continue to talk here, there will only be more and more guests. Why don’t you talk in private?”
The attendant was not willing, but the other party was not willing to let it go. If he continued, he was afraid that he would have to take off the curtain hat in front of him.
At that time, the situation would be even more disadvantageous to him.
He could only hold back his anger, nodded, and followed Zhao Xi to the room next door.
The rest of the workers were still blocking the entrance of the hall, looking for
Yuan Shanchuan.
Zhao Xi and the other entered the room and seized the opportunity to immediately take off his curtain hat.
The attendant was surprised by his actions and immediately flew into a rage out of humiliation. He raised his hand and hit him.
Seeing this, the waiter hurriedly went up to stop him. In the end, just as he was pulling, Shu Yu arrived with Daniu.
She was just about to say a few words to cover up, but before she could open her mouth, her expression froze instantly. She stared at the attendant with a surprised expression.
Why was it him?
