“How can you be sure that this suspect doesn’t have a room to stay in? You have to know that there are unconscious people outside and inside this inn!” Luo Cheng said meaningfully.

“Then, if the suspect is unconscious, won’t we be trapped here even longer?!” Li Xiaoran frowned and said.

Luo Cheng immediately stood up.

That was right. How could he have forgotten that? Perhaps the suspect wasn’t afraid of the knockout powder at all and had run out with the other people.

However, the officials made an unexpected move. When he saw that everyone around him had fallen, in order not to expose himself, he could only fall with them.

“Wife, you’re so smart. I almost forgot about that!”

Li Xiaoran was stunned when she heard Luo Cheng’s words.

“Are you saying that the suspect might actually be mixed up in that crowd of unconscious people?”

Luo Cheng nodded. Then, he opened the window and looked at the place where they had noticed the anomaly.

“Wife, look, it’s changed!”

Li Xiaoran walked to the window curiously.

Sure enough, at some point, the place where something had clearly been hidden had returned to its original state.

“Did you confirm the situation there when we came back previously?” Li Xiaoran pointed at the abnormal place and asked.

Luo Cheng thought about it carefully and shook his head.

“I didn’t notice. I looked over when I closed the window, but I didn’t notice if anything had been taken from that place!”

Li Xiaoran also thought hard, but she had not noticed it before.

“Sigh, if only we had taken a closer look previously! If the thing by the window was missing when we came back, it means that someone went to retrieve it after we left. If there was something there when we came back, it was taken by someone after we closed the window. This way, we can determine if the suspect is in the group pretending to be unconscious!”

Luo Cheng also felt that they should have confirmed it at that time. Otherwise, they wouldn’t be clueless now.

Just like that, the two of them pondered over it as they waited. The people below who had drunk the well water also began to react.

“Why is the sky so bright?!” a guest said.

As soon as he finished speaking, the person fell.

Then, one by one, they fell like dumplings.

Soon, there were few people left in the inn.

The woman in red also sensed that something was wrong and tensed up.

As much as she wanted to fight someone, it was definitely not under these circumstances.

She knew that the other party had already used many despicable methods, so if she still wanted to fight with them in an above-board manner, that would be a little stupid.

Thinking of this, the woman in red looked at the man who was conserving his strength.

After sitting down beside the man, the woman in red asked, “Hey, do you have any plans? If this continues, I’m afraid we’ll all be captured before tomorrow!”

The man didn’t open his eyes when he heard the woman in red’s words, but he spoke.

“Let’s conserve our strength! Let’s see if we can find the opportunity to escape tonight!”

The woman in red also knew that tonight would be a good chance, but she was still worried.

“If you and I can think of the best time to escape at night, how can the officials outside not know? Didn’t you see it just now? The person who walked out was killed by an arrow. It’s obvious that there must be an inescapable trap outside.

It’s difficult for the two of us to escape!”

The man, who had been conserving his strength, opened his eyes when he heard the woman in red’s words.

“You mean we should find a few more people to travel with?”

“No, it’s not about finding a few people. It’s about finding a few trustworthy people!” The woman in red emphasized.

“Trustworthy people? Who can we trust? Even you and I are strangers. If we weren’t trapped in this inn, we would have been strangers!” The man shook his head and said.

“Is this the time to talk about this? We have to find some trustworthy people! Otherwise, it will be really difficult for the two of us to break out!” The woman in red frowned and said.

“Then tell me, who do you think can be trusted?” the man asked.

The woman in red thought about it carefully and pointed in a direction.

“There’s a man in embroidered clothes with four guards beside him. I’ve observed carefully. These four people are definitely internal strength experts!” The man sneered when he heard the woman in red’s words.

“Those five people never left the room from the beginning to the end, and they don’t seem flustered at all, so they aren’t afraid of these officials at all. Therefore, they won’t get involved at all. They just needed to wait for the officials to come in, so they can leave safely.”

With that, the man pointed at the room where Luo Cheng and Li Xiaoran were.

“In my opinion, the only people we can trust are the couple in this room! That man is definitely an expert. As for that woman, she’s just an ordinary person, but she gives me the feeling that she’s the lucky star of this inn!”

When the woman in red heard this man’s words, her mouth fell open!

“Don’t tell me you’re a fortune-teller?! Lucky star? I don’t believe in superstition!”

“I’m not a fortune-teller. I just learned some techniques, so I can divine it!” the man said.

After the woman in red thought about the man’s words, she decided to take a gamble.

“Forget it. In any case, this is the only way, so why don’t we take a gamble?!”

Therefore, after the two of them discussed, they walked straight to Li Xiaoran and Luo Cheng’s room.

When they reached the door and saw a group of people lying in the corridor, the two of them moved all these people away.

The commotion outside naturally reached Luo Cheng’s ears.

Li Xiaoran sensed the two people walking outside the door and said in a low voice, “These two people came with good intentions. We can meet them later!”

When Luo Cheng heard Li Xiaoran’s words, he nodded and pondered over something.

Soon, the unconscious people outside were dragged to an empty room. The woman in red and the man returned to the room where Luo Cheng and the others were.

“Sorry to disturb you! We have something to discuss with you. I wonder if it’s convenient for us to come in?” the man asked in a low voice. At this moment, two pills were thrown out of the gap..
