Chapter 1334: The Poor Master

Atami Hot Spring, located in the Izu Peninsula of Japan, is the largest hot spring resort in Japan.

There are more than 300 springs supporting nearly 300 large and small hot spring hotels here. When Qin Yang and Situ Xiang drove there, it was just before dinner.

Atami Hot Spring is a good place for many Japanese people to visit and relax on weekends. It is not a weekend at this time, so the number of people is not particularly large.

Qin Yang did not choose those large hot spring hotels that occupied a large area. Instead, he drove all the way and finally chose a small seaside hot spring hotel that seemed to have no guests.

As for how to tell if there are no guests, it's very simple. Just look at whether there are cars parked in the parking lot of the hotel. After all, people who come here to soak in the hot springs don't come here on foot.

When the hotel owner saw the guests coming, he welcomed them out happily and bowed to Qin Yang and Situ Xiang as they stepped out of the car.

This hotel is quite small, and its location is relatively remote, making it seem quite quiet. It is run by a family of three, a middle-aged couple and their daughter in their early twenties.

The wife warmly greeted the two of them into the house. After arranging the room, it was almost dinner time. Situ Xiang took the initiative to take the menu and arrange the dinner, which was a quite sumptuous seafood feast.

The husband was busy in the kitchen, while his wife and daughter served food and wine, and set up a dining table on the balcony facing the sea.

Qin Yang and Situ Xiang were sitting on the balcony, and were about to enjoy a seafood feast, when a conversation suddenly sounded from the direction of the door below.

Qin Yang looked around and saw a man standing at the door, wearing a rather old down jacket and holding an old wooden box in his hand.

When the landlady saw another customer coming, she greeted him happily.

"Sir, welcome. Are you alone?"

The dark-faced middle-aged man nodded silently, and the landlady cordially ushered the guests in.

"Please come in, sir. It's dinner time right now and it's freezing outside. It would be very comfortable to have a steaming meal and a steaming hot spring bath at this time... in our store Everything is very cheap, much cheaper than the previous hotels, but our hot springs are not bad at all, and my husband’s cooking skills are also famous here..."

The proprietress enthusiastically introduced the silent middle-aged man into the room. The middle-aged man looked around and seemed to sense Qin Yang's gaze from the side. He raised his head, glanced at Qin Yang, and then lowered his head again.

Qin Yang's eyes were slightly startled, because in that glance just now, Qin Yang actually saw a sharp gaze like a blade.

This middle-aged man is no ordinary person.

Practitioner!

And he seems to be a master!

Qin Yang was very surprised. He found a remote hot spring hotel at random and met a practitioner. This seemed to be a good luck.

Qin Yang's eyes fell on the long wooden box he was holding in his hand. What could a master practitioner be holding in his hand?

Qin Yang absolutely did not believe that there was an instrument lying quietly in the wooden box. What lay inside should be another thing that should exist more.

Knife, or sword.

"I want a room, a small single room. How much does it cost?"

The landlady introduced attentively: "Sir, do you want a hot spring in the room or one without a hot spring?"

The man in the middle said in a deep voice: "If you don't want a hot spring, just give me the cheapest one...I can't afford the expensive one."

The landlady looked a little disappointed, but her attitude was still very enthusiastic: "Okay, please come with me. A single room without a hot spring and not close to the sea is very cheap, only 6,000..."

The middle-aged man was silent for two seconds: "Okay."

The proprietress led the middle-aged man to a room opposite, and the conversation was still coming.

"Sir, it's dinner time now. What would you like to eat?"

"Let's have a big bowl of seafood noodles."

"Okay, do you need anything else, drinks? Our sashimi here is very fresh..."

"No, I don't have much money."

"Okay, just wait a moment, I'll let the kitchen cook it for you, and I'll be here soon!"

Situ Xiang looked at Qin Yang and listened carefully, then smiled and said, "Why, are you interested in that person?"

Qin Yang smiled, with a slightly worried look in his eyes: "We came here quietly, no one will know, right?"

Situ Xiang frowned: "It's impossible, we decided randomly, and we were very careful when we left."

Qin Yang hummed and said softly: "That man is a practitioner, a master!"

Situ Xiang was stunned for a moment. She didn't look around just now, but just heard the sound. Naturally, she didn't know what kind of person the other person was. When she heard what Qin Yang said, she immediately became wary: "This hotel is a bit remote. If something happens and there is no way to call for help, should you be careful and leave first?”

Qin Yang shook his head: "Don't worry, let's see again."

Because of this unexpected guest, both Qin Yang and Situ Xiang were troubled, and they were no longer as relaxed and natural as before.

Although Qin Yang believed that no one would follow him here, he still had to be cautious after all.

Soon, the landlady carried a large bowl of seafood noodles on a wooden plate to the guest's room. Qin Yang pricked up his ears again.

"Sir, please use your seafood noodles slowly."

"good!"

"If you have any other needs, sir, please feel free to ask, I'll be right in front."

"Okay, here's the room fee and meal money. You can collect them first."

"Sir, don't be so anxious. We'll settle the bill together when you check out."

"Just take it. Maybe I will leave in a hurry tonight if I have something to do, and I may not have time to pay the bill then."

"Oh, okay, I'll keep it for now... Then you eat first, and I'll take care of it later."

"good!"

The proprietress opened the door and came out, took the dinner plate and the money given by the middle-aged man and went back to the front. Qin Yang withdrew his attention, picked up a glass of wine, and took a sip.

"Something is probably going to happen tonight."

Having been reminded by Qin Yang before, Situ Xiang also pricked up his ears and listened to the conversation opposite him. He nodded in agreement and said softly: "I just checked in and paid for the hotel and food. This can only mean one thing. , that is, he may leave in the middle of the night..."

Qin Yang hummed: "This place is very remote, but it's a good hiding place. He also carries weapons with him, but I guess it has nothing to do with us. If he came for us, he wouldn't be so arrogant. We are.”

Situ Xiang thought for a while and said, "It should be because he didn't drive here before, and it's hard to stay away even if he wants to come in the middle of the night. So maybe what he wants to do is stay around here."

Qin Yang raised his eyes and looked at the opposite side, as if he wanted to see through the partition in the middle: "No matter what, be alert at night."
