Chapter 376: Something’s Wrong

When Luo Cheng and Li Xiaoran heard the waiter’s words, they knew what to do.

After the waiter left, Li Xiaoran lowered her voice.

“Husband, what do you think?”

After Luo Cheng looked out the window at the unusual place, he finally shook his head.

“Forget it, it’s better not to interfere in order to avoid trouble. I think we should leave here today and go somewhere else! When we come back, we can come to Lu City to play!”

Li Xiaoran felt that Luo Cheng’s words made sense, so she turned around and went to pack her things.

However, to their surprise, when the couple wanted to leave, the officials outside surrounded the inn again and refused to let the people in the inn leave.

Seeing this, Luo Cheng frowned and was about to say something when Li Xiaoran suddenly grabbed his sleeve and shook her head at him.

“Husband, since we can’t leave now, let’s go back and rest! I was disturbed by these people yesterday, so I haven’t had enough sleep yet!” Li Xiaoran said.

Luo Cheng glanced at Li Xiaoran and finally nodded.

The guest room had already been checked out, but now, the couple had to check into the inn again.

Originally, Li Xiaoran wanted to change rooms, but the inn was already full.

Because no guests had left, there was no empty room and they could only return to their previous room.

After returning to the room, Li Xiaoran put down her bag and lay on the bed.

“Sigh, husband, I’m really tired, so let’s catch up on sleep together! We can’t go out anyvvay and it’s boring to stay here!”

When Luo Cheng heard Li Xiaoran’s words, he thought for a moment and walked over.

After taking off their coats, the two of them lay down together.

Li Xiaoran said softly beside Luo Cheng, “Something would have happened if we barged out just now. There are many people lying in ambush outside the inn and they’re on tenterhooks. If anyone is disobedient, they will probably be caught. These people have probably made up their minds not to let us leave until the person is caught!”

Luo Cheng smiled when he heard Li Xiaoran’s words.

No wonder Li Xiaoran wanted to stop him previously.

“Why do the officials think that person must still be in the inn and hasn’t left?” Luo Cheng voiced his doubts.

Li Xiaoran leaned her head on Luo Cheng’s shoulder and found the most comfortable position. Then, she said softly, “Perhaps they’re not looking for someone?”

When Luo Cheng heard Li Xiaoran’s words, his gaze immediately landed on the window.

“You mean the authorities have already captured him, but are looking for what he had with him?”

“It’s very likely! Otherwise, how can you explain why they won’t let us leave now? Yesterday, they were searching for the suspect, but they didn’t manage to capture him, so the officials left more than ten people here. Then, they immediately surrounded the inn today and didn’t let the people staying in it leave. The only explanation I can think of is that there must be something they’re looking for in this inn, but they’re afraid that the people in this inn will take it away!” Li Xiaoran analyzed carefully.

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a commotion outside.

“Why? What right do you have to search our own luggage? It’s bad enough that you guys barged in to catch the suspect yesterday, but you won’t let us go out today and even searched our things. Do you guys think you’re above the law?” A man shouted angrily.

When Luo Cheng and Li Xiaoran heard this, they put on their coats and went out to take a look.

The commotion outside had already attracted many people to watch.

At this moment, a young man was tugging at the clothes of an officer and shouting angrily.

When the other soldiers saw the young man attack, they surrounded him.

Just as everyone was sweating for the young man, a woman suddenly attacked.

After handful of peanuts fell, the soldiers were attacked to varying degrees.

In pain, they let go of the weapons in their hands. With a clang, the soldiers’ sabers fell to the ground.

“Even if you’re an official, you have to have a valid reason to search. We’re all law-abiding people who just spent the night here. It’s bad enough that you won’t let us go out, but now, you even want to search our luggage. I don’t think you’re here to capture the suspect at all, but to plunder money from us!” The woman in red who had attacked just now leaned against the railing and questioned loudly.

“That’s right. I also think these people are here to plunder money. I heard that something like this happened in Lu City not long ago. A group of soldiers trapped the people in an inn under the pretext of catching a fugitive. Later, those who lived in the inn were ruthlessly plundered before they were let go!” A man also appeared and fanned the flames.

After Luo Cheng watched the two of them, for some reason, he pulled Li Xiaoran into the room and stopped watching.

“Husband, is something going to happen?” Li Xiaoran asked after entering the room.

“You were half right just now. I’m afraid the suspect was in this inn last night.

Look at the two of them. They’re clearly fanning the flames and causing chaos. Others might not know, but I know very well that there’s no news of the soldiers searching the people in the inn at all. They’re making things up and inciting the anger of these people in the inn!” Luo Cheng revealed what he knew.

“In that case, these people are very likely in cahoots?” Li Xiaoran thought of a possibility.

“It’s difficult to determine if they’re in cahoots or not, but what I’m sure of is that there will definitely be trouble later. We’ll pack our things, close the door, and lock the windows. Then, we’ll go out after the conflict outside is over!” Luo Cheng said.

“Since there will be chaos, why don’t we take advantage of the chaos and leave?” Li Xiaoran asked in confusion.

“We didn’t do anything wrong, so we’re not afraid of these soldiers. As for taking advantage of the chaos, it’s better not to get caught in the crossfire. I don’t want you to be harmed in any way. If we keep a low profile, we can act according to the situation and I can protect you. But if we leave this place, that might not be the case. Wife, in my eyes, your life is more important than anyone else’s!” Luo Cheng said.

“Alright! Then I’ll listen to you. Let’s guard this room and leave after everything is over!” Li Xiaoran wasn’t unaware of the severity of the situation. When she heard that Luo Cheng had already made the best arrangements, she was naturally willing to listen to him.

The couple locked the door first, then went to close the window. Finally, they sat on the bed together and waited quietly..
