Capítulo 1288: Chapter 1288: Tell in Detail
ng Hongyao noticed that He Ruoi seed to have cald down a bit and was just about to speak.
Jiangli, however, directly said, “We suspect that the skeletons in the hidden room of your inn belong to the previously missing tourists. Do you have any impression of those missing tourists?”
He Ruoi was startled again, “You…”
“There are indeed that many skeletons in the hidden room; that’s a fact we cannot ignore. With so many skeletons there, we naturally have to speculate about their origin. Just recently, many tourists went missing from your place and other inns nearby, so it’s hard not to associate the source of those skeletons in the hidden room, isn’t it?”
Jiangli asked calmly.
He Ruoi opened her mouth but couldn’t deny it.
She bit her lip, “But how can I know what you’re saying is true?”
Jiangli clicked his tongue, “Mrs. Wu, if you say it like this, we’re going in circles, which is pointless. We said, if you don’t believe us, you can report to the police directly, or you can ask the police to go back with you to check.”
He Ruoi pressed her lips down, clenched her hands tightly, and said nothing.
Jiangli glanced at her hands, noticing that her wrist seed a bit dark.
Seemingly realizing that Jiangli was staring at her hand, He Ruoi quickly pulled her longsleeve down and hurriedly said, “This… this matter is too serious, I really can’t imdiately believe you…”
Jiangli withdrew his gaze and said softly, “It doesn’t matter if you don’t believe it, you can just pretend it didn’t happen. Just answer my question, do you have any impression of those missing tourists?”
He Ruoi rubbed her hands on her thighs, her eyes a bit lost, “I don’t know, I don’t have much impression of them… It’s usually my husband who serves guests at the inn, I only occasionally go during weekends or when it’s too busy at night to help out, but I only help with the accounts when I go, I really don’t have much impression of those guests…”
“Then has your husband ever told you anything about those guests?” ng Hongyao followed up on her words.
He Ruoi recalled, “He definitely ntioned sothing. After the first missing traveler appeared, my husband told about it. He said that traveler seed agreeable, fair-skinned, lively person, never expected him to skip out on the bill. Later my husband suspected he went missing, but after reporting, the police ca to investigate and found nothing. When my husband returned, he ntioned once that the young man’s disappearance was very strange. My husband even suspected that there might be sothing we don’t know in the inn, like secret passages or rooms, and he suspected the guest ran out through a passage we were unaware of.”
“Has your husband had any unusual behavior recently?” ng Hongyao took out her phone, opened a mo, recorded what He Ruoi said, and then asked.
He Ruoi frowned, “What do you an by unusual?”
ng Hongyao said, “For example, coming ho late, or having a fluctuating temper, being irate, or suddenly going out in the middle of the night?”
He Ruoi thought for a mont and suddenly widened her eyes, “It seems… there is…”
ng Hongyao imdiately asked, “Can you elaborate?”
He Ruoi slowly said, “Usually, he stays at the inn, occasionally when there aren’t many guests, he lets the staff watch the place and cos ho to stay. I rember, so ti ago, one day after he ca back, he went out again in the middle of the night.”
Jiangli pursued, “Do you know where he went?”
