Chapter 72: Treasure
Although he said that he was looking for it, Chen Le didn't know where to start.
This house is different from Su Ying's house, this is a super large European-style villa, if the photo is not in the room, but in the house, it is estimated that Chen Le will be able to renovate this villa for a year.
Moreover, the obvious places in the room should have basically been found by An Youyue, and even more, the entire house should have been found by the cleaning aunt.
This is bad news, because the photos are hard to find.
At the same time, it is good news that photos are not in obvious easy places.
Chen Le walked around the room, looked around, and asked casually, "Do you have any other clues?"
An Youyue shook her head slightly, "I think it's been so long, I must have lost it, or it was lost by the cleaning aunt, so don't worry about it, do your homework." ”
"It's okay, you do your homework first, and I don't do my homework, I'll think about it. ”
Chen Le circled the room, looked at the ceiling for a while, studied the floor for a while, and then went to turn over the bottom of the bed and look at the balcony.
He tried to imagine in his mind, and he could vaguely imagine that An Youyue, who was alone every day, should always take her mother's photo in the dead of night and when she felt lonely and lonely.
From her usual conversation, she can also feel that she should prefer her mother, probably because her father is more fierce and usually not at home, so she rarely mentions her father, but often says that her mother is very gentle.
Even, she should have been sleeping in her mother's arms before.
I feel that An Youyue should be the kind of little girl who relies on her mother a lot.
Chen Le thought for a while, came to the desk and sat down, pointed to the bottom drawer and asked, "I used to put this drawer." ”
"Hmm. ”
An Youyue glanced at Chen Le and nodded, "I used to stuff it at the bottom and the bottom of the book. ”
"Oh,"
Chen Le took out a few books inside as he spoke, checked them inside first, and naturally found nothing.
It's not that simple.
Then he took out the book again, flipped through them one by one, wondering if it was possible that the photographs could be caught in them.
Chen Le barely missed anything, took each book and opened it one by one.
Probably sensing Chen Le's movements, An Youyue frowned slightly, bit the tip of her pen and thought for a while, "I don't think it should be able to fit into the book." ”
"Ah, why is that?"
Chen Le looked at An Youyue puzzled.
An Youyue said with a look of reminiscence, "Because, the photo is easy to wrinkle, or be dirty, and even if it is left for a long time, it will be easy to corrode, and it is also very troublesome to accidentally get wet, so when I was a child, I specially framed my mother's photo with a frame." ”
"The frame is still a little thick, and it's very hard, so if you clip it in, you should be able to spot it easily. “
“...... That's right. ”
Chen Le gently put down the book, thought for a while, and said, "You should ...... You don't have to dig a hole of the same size in the book and hide the picture in it. ”
An Youyue waved her hand cutely and said, "Eh, I can't do it, isn't it wrong to destroy books?"
"And, when I was a child, I must not be so smart, I'm not like Ah Le, I've been stupid since I was a child, the same problem, I have to do it several times to remember, the same thing, my mother has to teach many times to understand, even walking, I have learned for a long time, even so, I still often fall. ”
"It's okay, I think Youyue is very smart, and I'm not smart at all, then, then I'll think about it. ”
The good news now is that the photo is more obvious than expected, it is framed with a frame, if it is still in the room, it may not be damaged, and Chen Le does not have to worry about the problem of the photo being corroded beyond recognition.
The bad news is that he originally thought the photo was just a piece of paper, placed in an unobtrusive place, or corner, because he had narrowly escaped the cleaner's sight.
However, this does not seem to be the case now.
A piece of paper is easy to hide, you can put it in a book, and even, maybe if you put it on your back, people will think that it is just an ordinary piece of paper, but if you have multiple frames, it is impossible.
Aunt Cleaning doesn't want to find out, unless she has to be blind.
"That, Youyue, do you have a storage room or anything like that, for example, you can store some old things, toys from your childhood, and put them in the storage room. ”
"Ah, yes, it's upstairs. ”
“......”
Then, under the leadership of An Youyue, Chen Le came to a storage room on the top floor of the villa.
This villa is actually two floors, this storage room, which is a mezzanine, with a lot of boxes piled up in it, as well as shelves, and there are books, old clothes and the like on the shelves.
Most homes will be covered with dust in this kind of storage room.
But because there are always cleaning staff, it seems to be very clean here.
As An Youyue opened the door and turned on the light, Chen Le also walked inside,
He even saw a large pirate-like treasure chest.
An Youyue was a little embarrassed and said, "This is what I left over from playing the treasure hunting game before, and in addition, there are some, other toys." ”
Chen Le also saw from here that An Youyue did have a lot of toys when she was a child.
There are so many that he can't even look at it, only envy.
Although a lot of things seem to be broken.
"Actually, my father threw it away, saying that it would be good to buy something new, but I think that although some things are broken, there are precious memories on them, so I kept them. ”
For things other than An Youyue's mother, his father didn't have such a big reaction, and he could stay if he wanted to.
Chen Le said in his heart, it's good to be rich, and asked, "So, if there are any old things, Aunt Cleaning will put them here." ”
"Hmm. ”
An Youyue hesitated and said, "Actually, I also looked for it here, but I didn't find it." ”
After all, if something is not lost and left in the room, the only place that can be moved is the storage room.
Chen Le guessed if the photo would be put into some old thing, and then the cleaning aunt took it and put it here.
"Don't mind if I open these boxes and take a look. ”
"It's okay, it's all old. ”
"Good. ”
Then Chen Le sat down directly next to him, intending to open them one by one to check.
At the same time, he said to An Youyue without raising his head, "It's okay, you go and do your homework, I'll take a look." ”
"I ...... I'll be with you. ”
"No, if you don't do your homework well, you'll be scolded tomorrow. ”
Chen Le didn't want to be scolded because he didn't do his homework well.
An Youyue is a good boy and a good girl, and she must not take her badly.
An Youyue hesitated and said, "Then, okay, then call me if you have something." ”
"Good. ”
Then Chen Le sat in the dim light, carefully checking everything in the storage room.
At this time, it was already half past nine o'clock in the evening, and it was surprisingly quiet outside.
In the room, Chen Le was the only one who opened the old boxes and old toys, and carefully checked whether there were any photos hidden.
It's a lot of work, but it's very productive.
There are a lot of things in this storage room, and even Chen Le doesn't know which ones can be dismantled and which ones can't, so he can only try them one by one.
There are even some things that are rusty and old, and when he is not careful, there are nails and sharp blades that cut the skin of his hands.
Chen Le didn't pay much attention to it.
He wanted to make An Youyue happy from the bottom of his heart.
It's a pity that he doesn't have special functions, and he doesn't have high-tech search equipment, so such an inefficient search is still all under his own guesswork, and the probability of finding it is almost 0.
In fact, he really didn't find it.
Until half past 10, when An Youyue's homework was finished, she came up to see Chen Le, who was still doing the work of looking for it very seriously.
An Youyue had to remind, "It's already half past ten." ”
"Ah, is it so late?"
Chen Le was also embarrassed to linger any longer, "Then, I'll look for it tomorrow." ”
Chen Le felt that the chance of finding it was no more than 3 percent, but he was willing to insist on trying.
"Well, in fact, it doesn't matter if you can't find it, after all, it's been so long, and I've been looking for it for a long time. ”
An Youyue approached and realized, "Ah, you have a lot of ash on your face, and there is blood on your hands." ”
"It's fine, it's just a little bit of skin. ”
"How can it be okay, these things are too old, and there are rusty ones, if you get tetanus, you will be in trouble. ”
An Youyue was nervous, rarely a little tough, so she pulled Chen Le and went to the bathroom in her room to wash her hands and face.
She said with a serious look as if educating a child, "You must wash it carefully, if it is infected, it will be troublesome." ”
"Ah, it's okay. ”
Chen Le felt that he was a cheap life, and he didn't need to be so particular.
Then under An Youyue's semi-forcedness, he was grabbed by his hands and cleaned it well.
This is the first time in Chen Le's life that someone has helped him wash his hands.
It also made Chen Le feel that An Youyue was just like a kindergarten teacher, and felt that she would be very suitable for this kind of work.
Moreover, it is so comfortable to be caught by the young moon and wash his hands.
"If you want a towel, can you use mine, or I'll go to the spare room and get a new one. ”
"Ah, don't bother. ”
Chen Le was afraid of bothering An Youyue to run more, and on the other hand, he was afraid of soiling An Youyue's cute towel.
Then he realized, "Why are there two towels here? Is the blue one someone else's?"
On the towel rail, there are two, one pink and one light blue towel.
"Not really. ”
An Youyue suddenly blushed a little and said, "The red one is for washing your face, and the blue one is ......."
"It won't be a foot wipe. ”
Will the towel for wiping feet hang with the towel for wiping the face?
"It's not La, the blue one, the one ......"
An Youyue's face was pink, her eyes wandered, and she said with a little weakness, "That one doesn't use much." ”
"Oh, I'll use this one. ”
Hearing Chen Le say this, An Youyue suddenly said very nervously, "Hey, this one can't be pulled! This one, it's too old, you still use mine." ”
"It's okay to be old, I'm very willing, just use it. ”
Chen Leke didn't dare to stain An Youyue's towel.
I grabbed the blue towel directly, soaked it in the water, and used it to wipe my face.
An Youyue panicked, and it was too late to stop it.
It's just that Chen Le wiped it halfway with a towel, and Xia Yao's cold voice sounded in his ears.
"I guess that towel is what she used to wipe off her body. ”
“......”
Chen Le's movements paused, and he was stunned for a long time before he reacted, Xia Jiabing said that the lower body, half of the body, did not refer to the feet.
Suddenly some incredible pictures came to mind!
Immediately, An Youyue's screams rang out in the bathroom.
"Ahh......h Ah Le, you have a lot of nosebleeds, you have a lot of nosebleeds!"
“......”
