When he came out of the room with the long bag on his back, there was still the sound of music coming from the hall. There was no sign of the riots or chaos that he was worried about.
He only heard a few words of the fragmented conversation. Ning Yi was not sure whether those people were talking about "Qin Siyuan" or whether they would do something unpleasant to everyone. It was possible that he had misunderstood or misheard.
He also hoped so. Takeshi's restaurant had just opened, and it couldn't afford too much trouble. Moreover, the peaceful days had passed for a long time. He also felt that the speculation in his heart was a little coincidental. But those people did not give him a very good feeling. It was better to be safe than sorry.
When he walked to the corner of the corridor, the door in front of him had opened again. Several people came out of the room and walked toward the platform outside. There were five people in this group. In addition to the burly man, the tall and thin man, and the nobleman that Ning Yi had seen, the other two were also quite tall. Both of them wore fur coats and short clothes. One of them had a scar on his face, and the other was slightly fat, but also seemed to be strong and burly.
These people looked like Jianghu people who traveled all over the country or were on a parade. They went out and looked at Ning Yi, but they did not care.
There were a lot of people walking or standing on the platform around the hall, and there were also waiters walking around. Song Qian also stood near the stairs according to Ning Yi's instructions, holding melon seeds in his hand and cracking them. The five people walked out of the corridor on the second floor. For a moment, they stood on the platform overlooking the hall and looked around. Ning Yi came out behind them and winked at Song Qian, indicating that he needed to pay attention to someone.
A waiter with a tea tray passed by. Ning Yi leaned against the railing and squeezed with the tall and thin man who was looking down. Then he smiled and said, "Sorry, sorry." The tall and thin man glanced at him. A little further, the nobleman should be talking to his companion next to him. When he saw someone approaching, he closed his mouth. When Ning Yi walked away, he lowered his head and continued to talk.
Walking past Song Qian, Ning Yi went down the stairs. At this time, Yun Zhu and Elder Qin were still sitting at a table far away from each other. Ning Yi did not want to attract attention at this time, in case Yun Zhu or Elder Qin greeted him. He blended into the crowd and looked back. On the platform, the five people were still frowning as they looked down from the railing.
The hall was bustling with activity. People were coming and going, and the music was delightful. There was no sign of anything happening. On the other side was Elder Qin, who had always been aloof from worldly affairs. Recently, there had been some changes in his life. Today, he came here just to sit in this newly opened restaurant. Ning Yi took a deep breath. It was difficult to grasp the thoughts in his mind. He turned his head to look at the people around him, but he didn't know many workers here. After a long while, he finally found a waiter. He pulled the waiter to a corner and gave him a few instructions. Before he could finish, he saw Yuan Jin 'er, who was wearing a mask, standing by the window in the corner not far away. She glanced at him a few times, then walked over to him with a smile.
"Ning Yi, what are you doing? Have you seen Sister Yun Zhu?"
"Yes."
"Well, she is over there." Jin 'er pointed to Yun Zhu through the crowd, "The old man of the Qin family is also here. Oh yes, that Elder Qin … has a high status, right?"
"Kind of …" Ning Yi looked at her with doubt, "What's the matter?"
"Nothing." There was obviously something in Yuan Jin 'er's mind, but she nodded at this time with a simple but cunning smile. Even if she had something, it was probably not important. Ning Yi looked up and suddenly frowned. The five people seemed to have discussed things. One of them nodded and began to walk in the direction of the stairs. Childe Gui was still pointing and giving orders to the other three people. At the stairway, Song Qian turned his head and looked at Ning Yi.
Behind him, Yuan Jin 'er asked, "Do you want to find Zheng Quan for something …" Zheng Quan was the name of the waiter who was stopped by Ning Yi.
Ning Yi suddenly turned his head and gestured to the waiter named Zheng Quan, "Go and stop the tall man with a scar on his face. Remember to apologize." At the same time, he also winked at Song Qian.
Song Qian was originally standing at the stairway. At this time, he turned around and went down to the hall first. The man with the scar on his face followed them down the stairs. Halfway down the stairs, the waiter, Zheng Quan, came up to them with a tray of tea. The two of them moved left and right on the stairs and finally bumped into each other. The tea and pastries on the tray were all knocked over.
It was just a small matter. The waiter quickly apologized, picked up the rag hanging on his body and began to wipe the water stains on the other's clothes. The man with a scar on his face watched the situation in the hall. He impatiently wanted to refuse and go downstairs, but he was blocked by the waiter several times in a moment. The four people who were still above also noticed the situation on the stairs. They poked their heads out and took a look, but they didn't take it seriously. Childe Gui continued to talk. At this time, on the small stage in front of the hall, the invited singer was singing a song called "Pipa Playing". It was the moment when "The ice spring is cold and astringent, the strings are frozen, and the sound stops temporarily." Song Qian walked through the hall, walked to Elder Qin's side, and bent down.
On the platform, Childe Gui stopped talking and stood up straight. Several people around him, including the man with a scar on the stairs, also looked over there. Ning Yi, on the other hand, looked over from the side. His brows furrowed, and he felt suffocated. At the back, Jin 'er chattered something.
The singer's music turned slow, and she sang, "Don't let the sorrow and hate grow. At this time, silence is better than sound." She pressed her finger and stopped the music slightly. She glanced at the hall. Beside the table in front, Song Qian had finished talking with Elder Qin. He held Elder Qin's arm and stood up. When he turned around and was about to go out, he looked back at the platform above. He pulled Elder Qin and strode forward. Above them, the burly and heroic man suddenly straightened his body. The wooden railing he was holding on to suddenly split open.
Ning Yi took a deep breath in the corner. Behind him, Jin 'er exclaimed softly, "Ah!" No one knew what she was saying. In the hall, the strings trembled.
The singing suddenly became urgent. It sang, "When the silver bottle is broken, the water splashes, the cavalry rushes out, the swords and spears ring …"
On the other side, Song Qian and Elder Qin passed through the crowd. Yunzhu in a plain white dress did not know what had happened. She stood up in confusion and looked around. On the stairs, the waiter named Zheng Quan rolled down. At this time, not many people noticed these at the first time. Only Ning Yi, who was in the corner, suddenly took a step back, "Fuck …"
The man with a scar on the face rushed down the stairs. The thin and tall man and the slightly fat man beside the Childe rushed out on both sides. They also went down the stairs in front. The speculation in his heart was finally confirmed at this moment. Jin 'er, who was behind him, seemed to have seen something. She mumbled, "They're really here, they're really here …" Ning Yi only shouted in a low voice, "Quickly find a place to hide!"
Before he finished speaking, there was a bang in the hall. Under the platform, a table suddenly exploded. All kinds of things were scattered in the dust. The people sitting around were also caught off guard and fell around. Something flew across the hall in the air and went straight to the place where Elder Qin and Song Qian were. But after all, it missed its target. It hit a man sitting next to him and pushed him to the ground more than two meters away.
Not many people could react to what had happened. The singing on the stage was still going on. Only Ning Yi, who had been paying attention to the top, could roughly figure out the situation. At this moment, the man with a scar on the face was rushing into the crowd. The thin and tall man and the slightly fat and strong man rushed down from different stairs. Beside the Childe, the burliest man directly kicked off a large section of the railing and threw it at Song Qian. Then, he jumped directly into the hall and landed on the table below, smashing the square table into pieces.
Someone was hit and flew out.
"Ah —" Only then did the shouts sounded.
It was difficult to understand what happened in a short time. But the chaos still started after all. There were many people in the hall, plus the staff walking around and all kinds of tables and chairs. Once the chaos started, it seemed a little crowded. If you looked from above, there seemed to be four obvious marks in the crowd. The four people who followed the Childe were all burly northeast men. Even if one of them looked tall and thin to Ning Yi, the word "thin" was actually because of his amazing height. These people rushed to Song and Qin who were heading toward the door like a chariot. The guests who didn't escape in time were pushed to the ground, and the tables and chairs were all broken and kicked away.
"Elder Qin, you thief —" In the chaos, the burliest man shouted, "I'll take your dog life!"
The music stopped, and the singers on the small stage stared at everything in the hall with their mouths agape. The noble young master had also rushed down with the four people. Although his clothes were luxurious, his face was also fierce. He pulled out a saber in his hand and followed closely behind. He glanced at one side and then stared at the direction of Song and Qin.
In the chaotic hall, Yunzhu, who was wearing a white dress, stood in front of the square table. She didn't understand why this happened. Everything happened too fast. Not far away, a slightly fat and strong man rushed straight to her. The next moment, the square table in front of him was suddenly blown away. Her hand was hit, and she gave a low cry. In front of her, a big hand grabbed her.
When they were on the platform, they had been paying attention to Qin Siyuan. Naturally, they had also noticed the woman sitting next to Qin Siyuan. The burly man's charge was like a chariot. Just as his arm was about to grab her neck, a force pulled her body to the side. At the same time, a bamboo tube seemed to have rushed out from her ear, heading towards the fat man's face.
Ning Yi grabbed Yunzhu's shoulder with one hand and pulled her body to the side. The other hand held the tail of the gun, and the burning light of the fuse had extended into the barrel.
The fat man's pupils dilated for a moment.
There was a loud bang. It was deafening.
In the hall, it was like a butterfly spreading its wings. The flames blossomed, and billowing smoke rose up, almost covering everyone's body. On the other side, the blood and minced flesh that soared into the sky almost formed a symmetrical fan shape with the smoke, splattering all over. At this time, Ning Yi had already pulled Yunzhu to his side and hugged her. The fat man's body rushed through the smoke and rushed past them. He rushed for four or five meters before falling to the ground, smashing a stool into pieces. His head and neck were badly mutilated, and blood spurted from the wound. His body twitched.
These people rushed down from above. They were strong and determined. For a moment, almost no one could react. This was almost the fiercest charge. It felt like almost no one could stop it. However, at the peak of this spurt of energy, the sudden counterattack was also astonishingly fierce. The sturdy man was already dead. The scar-faced man, who also rushed close, rushed for a few more meters before stopping in astonishment. Then, he charged toward Ning Yi with a roar.
The fastest and the most burly man did not pay attention to this side. He had almost closed the distance with Song and Qin in a moment. At this time, he had already caught up to the door. At the same time, Song Qian had already pulled Elder Qin out of the door. On the street, there were dozens of people rushing toward this Takeshi branch. They didn't know where these people came from, but they seemed to have bad intentions.
