The blind fortune teller solved the mystery of the hotel.

In the early years of Guangxu in Qing Dynasty, on an autumn evening, two people were walking excitedly on a road in the suburbs of Beijing. These are two cloth dealers, one is Wang Xinkui and the other is Sun Baofa, who just came back from selling cloth in Henan. This business trip went well. The two of them made a fortune and were in a good mood. They talked and laughed all the way. A burly man on the roadside, with two big boxes on the ground, is sitting on a pole, holding a straw hat and fanning the wind. Seeing Wang Xinkui and Sun Baofa in the distance, he greeted him and asked, "Brothers, is there a hotel near here?" Wang Xinkui is a refreshing person. He reached a finger. "There seems to be a Xinglai Inn a mile ahead. We're staying at the hotel, too! Come with us if you don't know the way. " The big fellow quickly thanked him, picked up the box and followed the cloth dealer to Xinglai Inn. Along the way, the three men rambled and exchanged names. Dahan, who calls herself Sanliu, lives in a remote and poor rural area in Shaanxi and has been doing business in Beijing. I suddenly received a message from my hometown the day before yesterday, saying that his old father could not afford to be ill, and asked him to hurry back. Thinking of his hometown was nothing, he prepared two boxes of things and hurried home. The cloth dealer comforted him. Before long, the three of them arrived at Xinglai Inn. Because it was all the way, we were arranged to live in the east wing together. Packed up, the three of them worked hard all the way, washed their faces and went to bed early. Suppose there are two people living next door to them. One is a teapot seller, and the other is a blind fortune teller known as "a divination in Beijing". People only know his surname is Chen, and they call him Chen Yigua. Knowing that Chen Yi was a fortune teller, the seller of teapot seized this opportunity and talked to blind people one by one, asking them to give him divination for free. The alarm clock rang very late, and the tiredness of selling casserole surged up. I fell asleep with my head tilted. Chen Yi put out the light, ready to go to bed, but as an old man, he struggled with what to sell for a while and couldn't sleep for a while. Just as Chen Yigua was about to fall asleep, there was a strange slight noise from the east wing next door. The blind man has keen hearing. When stimulated by this sound, he will turn over and stick his ear to the wall, just like the wind waving an axe in the air, followed by a moan! Then there was a strange sound. I listened to it again and found nothing. Chen Yigua took a deep breath and thought for a moment. He touched the bed where the teapot was sold, quietly woke him up and said to his ear, "No, there was a murder in the east wing!" " "I was scared at first when I sold the teapot, but I didn't believe it later. Chen Yigua said, "I pretended to break your casserole and you quarreled with me. The louder the sound, the better, so as to observe the movements of several people in the east wing. " With that, he lit the lamp! Pick up a casserole and smash it on the ground. He scolded the teapot back, which was particularly harsh in the middle of the night. Everyone in the hotel was woken up and all the rooms were lit. East wing three people first pushed the door and came in, asking why. The teapot seller said that the blind man smashed my pot for no reason, and the blind man said that I lost money. The three people in the east wing were chatting politely, but they were still adamant4. At this time, the owner of the hotel also came and said to the teapot seller, "since you didn't steal the blind man's money, please show him your things." "The seller agreed, and three people in the east wing took the initiative to help Chen Yigua find it for a while and found nothing. Chen Yigua burst into tears: "I am blind. I managed to accumulate several strings of copper coins by counting other people's divinations. I lost them in the middle of the night today. Everyone who lives here is a suspect. If you can't find a roommate, start with the person closest to my room and look for them one by one! If you can't find it, you won't live! "The three men in the east wing were furious:" You blind people are really unreasonable. We are happy to help you. You are not only ungrateful, but also bite us! " At this time, more and more tourists gathered to look at Chen Yigua's miserable appearance. They all advised, "Start with the three of you. If you can't find it, just search next to us and let the blind man die." With that, they poured into the east wing. The three men had no choice but to open the package and other items, but they didn't. They also asked them to open the box. 36 quickly said, "it"

"Chen yi a stick to open, 36 look greatly changed. The passengers became more and more suspicious that he had stolen the money and asked to open the luggage. Liu and others were sweating profusely, trying to escape the road and being caught by everyone. The innkeeper opened the box by himself, and there were several oil paper bags covered with blood. When he untied them, he found two dismembered dead people! It turned out that his two accomplices were hiding in two boxes carried by Sanliu. After falling asleep in the middle of the night, two cloth dealers climbed out of the box, hacked the sleeping cloth dealers to death with sharp axes, and then packed them in boxes respectively, ready to leave the shop before dawn. Because it was night when they checked into the hotel and it was not dawn when they left the hotel, none of them seemed to be noticed. Even if they pay attention, they can't tell each other clearly in a hurry. In addition, 3 people stayed in the store and 3 people left the store. The figures are consistent and will not arouse others' suspicion. I thought that things were done seamlessly, and that Skynet was long and smooth, but it was defeated by a blind fortune teller!
