Chapter 34: Sherlock Holmes and Watson

The old man was not in a hurry to go home, first went to the vegetable market, bought a handful of vegetable leaves, weighed a little peanuts, bought a little pig ears, and finally went to get a bottle of soju before forgetting to go home.

Looking at the amount of grocery shopping, it is estimated that it is a person who lives. Fang Manman thought in his heart.

They followed the old man around the alley, and finally, through a narrow aisle, stopped in front of an old old house, and the old man took out the key to open the door, and an ear of wheat fell on the key.

Wang Zhuo's eyes were sharp, and he pointed to the keychain and said, "I know this key, the one I just returned." ”

At this point, the uncle's strange attitude can be understood, and he changed the lock from the school to his own door.

Fang Manman looked at the old house, moss and weeds had grown on the eaves, and the windows were all pasted with newspaper, which was not warm and leaked.

Both of them felt uncomfortable watching such a scene. Especially Wang Zhuo, who grew up in the city, and his family upbringing allowed him to treat everyone equally, but now, he really feels that there is a gap between people.

"Let's go. Fang Manman said, "Let's go and ask." ”

"I'm going to ask. Wang Zhuo's face was unbearable, not because he disliked this place, but because he was afraid of scaring this old man who had a difficult life.

"Don't worry, he's much stronger than you think. ”

Fang Manman knocked on the door, and after a while, the old man came to open the door with a wine glass.

"You, why are you here? How do you know I live here?" the old man was a little alarmed.

Fang Manman comforted him and said, "Uncle, don't worry, we came with you and wanted to see this lock." ”

The uncle was angry: "What is the lock, you guys go quickly!"

Fang Manman said: "You embezzled the school's property and put the lock on your own door, if the school knew about it, what did you say they would do." ”

The old man's lips trembled, and it took a while for him to say a word: "This lock is no longer needed, it is broken." It's broken, I'm using it, what's wrong with it? Girl, you have pity on me. I've had a hard time locking this door for decades. ”

Wang Zhuo pulled Fang Manman's hand: "If you don't forget it, I won't be able to pay for it." ”

Fang Manman ignored it and said, "Don't worry, we don't want to complain, we are here to see the lock." You let us look into it, this thing is guaranteed to rot the stomach. ”

"Really?" asked the old man, tilting his head.

Fang Manman nodded affirmatively.

Now, the two of them can see the lock up close.

As Wang Zhuo said, this lock is already very old, Fang Yuanyuan took out another piece of paper, and if she concocted it in the same way, she could still open the door directly when there was paper, without a key.

Wang Zhuo said: "I'm actually a little confused now, what do you have to do to verify this matter?"

"You and the teacher have locked the door, and there is no third key, and there is no trace of picking the lock, which means that the door must be opened by special means, and we have one way, and there are other possibilities, such as professional lockpickers. ”

"The thief kind. ”

"Not excluded. Fang Manman said: "But you just want to ha, what is there to steal from this place in the school, if the main purpose is for money, then the possibility of valuables in the principal's office and the teacher's office is much higher than here." ”

Wang Zhuo continued: "In other words, the purpose of the person who stole the equipment was not for money, but for other purposes. ”

Fang Manman nodded: "Yes." If it is for other purposes, we can boldly assume that you are currently the victim of this matter, indicating that the real culprit is an action that is directed at you. Have you been dating anyone lately?"

"There are so many people with whom I have a relationship. ”

Fang Manman nodded: "You screen and rule it out, who is the most likely?"

Wang Zhuo calmed down and thought about it: "Li Xiaohua, Fang Yuanyuan, Li Fan." ”

"Who is Li Fan?" The first two Fang Manman knew each other.

"It's my hair small, but I don't keep in touch with it often now. He was in another class. ”

Fang Manman shrugged: "Then there must be a story." Fa Xiao actually wants to fix you. ”

Wang Zhuo sighed: "Okay, I know." Let's lose money. ”

"What's wrong?" Fang Manman wondered, "We're just one step away from knowing the truth." ”

"I'm a little tired. After speaking, Wang Zhuo left first: "Let's go, we've been doing it for so long, and if we go back late, we will be scolded." ”

Fang Manman had other ideas. Judging from Wang Zhuo's recent interactions, it is most likely that Fang Yuanyuan is still the one who is still there. But Wang Zhuo, from the very beginning, mentioned that the hair was like a frosted eggplant, and it collapsed, and there was a connection Wang Zhuo's strange attitude towards Fang Yuanyuan, Fang Manman had a guess.

"You, Fang Yuanyuan, Li Dan, has something happened between the three of you?"

Wang Zhuo's eyes widened, but he quickly denied it: "It's nothing, I'm thinking about it, let's go." ”

Fang Manman smiled slyly: "But your body language has betrayed you." It doesn't matter if you want to talk about it or not. Let's go, go home. ”

"I find that you are still quite paranoid sometimes. Wang Zhuo said suddenly.

Fang Manman chuckled in her heart, as if every time she encountered something related to Fang Yuanyuan, she was extra attentive and wanted to know the inside story, for fear of missing that detail.

So she said: "I think about it too much, I just like the truth and detective games, have you seen "Sherlock Holmes", I like it." ”

In the eighties, too few people had read the book. Wang Zhuo happens to be one of them.

"Which one do you like?" Wang Zhuo was interested.

"I love them all. Fang Manman said, "I think in this pairing, you are playing the role of Watson." ”

Wang Zhuo was not convinced: "Why, I have an incomparably wise brain." ”

"But you have emotions. Fang Manman said.

"Sherlock Holmes has it too. Besides, if you don't have emotions, why did you just throw money into that house. ”

Fang Manman was surprised: "You saw it?"

Wang Zhuo rolled his eyes: "The blind can't see it." If I hadn't brought any money, I'd have given a little. ”

Walking out of the narrow aisle, the two walked slowly through the alley, one after the other.

Fang Manman suddenly said, "That's called the mental loss fee." ”

Wang Zhuo knew what she was talking about, but he didn't seem to understand it. After thinking for a while, he said: "Fang Manman, don't be too nervous, most people are still good people, such as me, for example, you." ”

Fang Manman pretended not to hear, this person was talking about this without a head or a brain, what else could she say, could she talk about her rebirth in one go. But there's no denying that this kid feels really keen.

The two broke up at the door of Fang Manman's house. Needless to say, it's another meal to go home, after all, it's getting dark. Fang Manman didn't care, once or twice was nothing. It's just that she suddenly thought of Lei Xiaoming, recently, she has hardly seen this stinky boy.
