Chapter 50: The Thief
A week later, the students who had settled down again began to adjust to life here, but they still missed their home very much, and this feeling may not fade with time, and the reason why they are still alive is to see the sun of their world and the smiles of their families again.

"Nanaba, it's time to get up, I'll go to the back vegetable garden to pick something to make breakfast. "At half past six in the morning, Serina woke up very punctually, the fourth palace in the bed was still lazily asleep, since living here, everyone's vigilance seems to have been put into the most lax state, even Sakuruma will wander from time to time these days.
"Know...... Purple......"
"Alas~" change your clothes, take the basket outside the door and walk to the vegetable garden, although the first floor of the sky garden is dark at night, but the morning sun can easily reach here, just like the sun hanging overhead.
The vegetables in the garden grow very quickly, and the few months of cultivation here can produce new fruit in just one night, and although it takes about three days to fully ripen, the food picked during this time alone is enough for the eighteen people to eat for several days.
"Good morning, Sirina. ”
"Good morning, night, you usually sleep until seven o'clock and wake up, why did you get up so early today?" With Mu Fengye's company, Serina slowly walked towards the vegetable garden, she knew his biological clock well, just like an alarm clock set in the morning.
"I went to bed early yesterday, by the way, I'm embarrassed to always ask Shinomiya to help make breakfast, so I'll help today. ”
"Oh, it's not like you. ”
"Huh, how can I say that I'm ...... too?"
Before Mu Fengye's words could be finished, the basket in Silina's hand fell to the ground first, she stared at the front with a solemn face, and her brows twitched slightly.
"What's wrong?" Mu Fengye followed Sirina's gaze, and suddenly gasped, only to see that all the vegetables in the vegetable garden had disappeared, and only the roots and stems were left all over the ground! There were a lot of messy footprints in the soil, and there was a trampled tomato lying next to a corn stalk!
"How did this happen...... the two of them stared at the mess of the vegetable garden, the vegetables were almost all plucked, and although the remaining rhizomes and seeds would grow rapidly again, it was absolutely impossible to force them to ripen in a few days.
It was impossible for the huge vegetable garden to be left unattended, and the news of this incident spread far and wide, and soon reached everyone's ears.
"Mu Feng, what's going on?" Kawada Hui, who rushed from a distance to hear the news, first observed the entire vegetable garden, the situation was very miserable, the food that was left behind or trampled on was not enough for them to eat for three days.
"I don't know, it was already like this this morning when Sirina and I were going to come here to pick up something and go back to make breakfast for everyone, someone must have been in the vegetable garden last night, but it is impossible to get rid of them overnight after moving so many vegetables. ”
"I see, Jill, search every room. ”
"Ok, don't let me catch who it is, or ......" Jill squeezed out of the crowd and began to search.
"Then what are we going to do today? These things are not enough for everyone to share, are they?" The girls in the back argued, indeed, it takes at least three days to get these plants to grow back and bear fruit, and now all we have collected from the vegetable garden are a few potatoes and two pumpkins, let alone three days, and it is probably not enough for a meal to distribute these things to eighteen people.
"You guys go back first, try to go out as little as possible, and save some energy. Instead of letting things get worse, Kawada made the right choice to evacuate the panicked crowd first, so as not to cause further egregious incidents.
Seeing the crowd disperse, Mu Fengye was also relieved, he handed the basket to Sirina, and said slowly: "Please make these foods for the fourth palace, and then distribute them to those girls." ”
"What about you? These are the last foods. ”
"Stabilize their emotions first, I'll let Takagi find a way to do this, in short, find the hiding place of those foods as soon as possible now, Mu Feng is right, so many things can't disappear out of thin air overnight, even if a few people eat together, they can't eat it all, and what was stolen are some vegetables that must be cooked before they can be eaten, and cooking can't be completed without the stove in your house." Kawada squatted on the ground and carefully examined the footprints, and he found that the footprints were just one person, and there was no second pair of different footprints.
"Mu Feng, what's going on, I heard that there was a theft in the vegetable garden last night?" Back in the house, Gao Zhi and Vera seemed to have heard about it, although it had now been handed over to Kawada Hui to deal with, but I didn't know if they could catch the thief.
"Hmm. ”
"Did you catch the thief?"
"Not yet, Jill has already gone to find clues, and Kawada and Takagi are also trying to figure out a way. Anyway, we didn't have breakfast left, so I asked Serina to divide the rest of the food among the girls, and make sure to find the stolen things before they starved to death, it didn't matter if the thieves caught them or not, it was great to keep an eye on the vegetable garden. Mu Fengye sighed and sat down on the chair by the window, from which she could see Sirina's room opposite, she was busy preparing breakfast with Sinomiya.
"Hey, where are you going?" Seeing Mu Fengye, who had just sat down, stood up and walked to the door again, Gao Zhi didn't bother to stop him, just focused his eyes on a few stone slabs in the corner, they had been piled up there since they came here, and they didn't know what to do.
"Go find Sakurama. ”
"Hey, I know ......"
Approaching Sakura's house, I met Saya who had just left there on the way.
"Shaya. ”
"Ah, classmate Mu Feng, is there something wrong?" Sha Ya stopped not far away, looked back at Mu Fengye and asked.
"Is Sakuruma there?"
"Well, Aiyue is inside, she said she was waiting for you. ”
"Wait for me?" Before Mu Fengye could ask what was going on, Shaya ran into the distance in a panic, not knowing what she was going to do, but there should be no danger here.
"Squeak—"
"You're here. In the dark room, only the fluorescence of the computer monitor came from the corner of the bed, and Sakuruma stayed in the room for several days, and she didn't participate in the evening gatherings, but stayed in this place and fiddled with the computer all the time.
"Hey, why don't you go out for a walk, it's boring to stay here all day. Mu Feng opened the curtains at night, and a ray of sunlight slowly shone in.
"Hmm...... It's too glaring, pull it on. Sakura held the notebook and hid in another dark corner, the sunlight seemed to hit her face, Mu Fengye couldn't help but look curiously at the oblique upward, where a copper mirror was installed, probably with it to make this dark layer brighter.
"Is it because of this thing that you didn't open the curtains?" Mu Fengye pulled the curtains back again, and Sakura slowly returned to the corner of the bed just now.
"Why does that thing have to be facing here, it's just facing the ground. Sakurama complained.
"Do you have anything to do with me?" Mu Fengye walked to the side of the bed, hesitated for a moment and sat down on the chair next to him.
"You're sitting in my room right now, and you're still forcing me to answer this strange question. ”
"Eh, no, Shaya said you were waiting for me inside. ”
Sakuruma's hand, which was still typing on the keyboard just now, stopped, and seemed to remember something: "Oh, yes, is it time?"
"What time?"
"The time when people's hearts are surging. Sakurama continued with a string of words that he didn't understand.
"What do you mean?"
"I already know, the things in the vegetable garden are similar to what I expected, didn't you come here to discuss this matter with me?" Sakurama turned the screen to Mu Fengye, which was a topographic map of the entire sky garden that she had drawn here these days, full 3D structure, and every detail was clear.
"How did you draw this kind of thing here all day?" Mu Fengye dragged the picture in disbelief, this place was exactly the same as the place where he lived now, and even the details in the house were depicted just right.
Sakurama touched a mobile phone from the bed and opened the gallery inside: "I asked Shaya to go to these places every day to take pictures and bring them back, and now there are still a few places on the third floor that have not been done." ”
"But what's the use of you doing this?"
"Chase what is lost. Sakurama stretched and got up from the bed, "Let's go, take me to see what has become of the vegetable garden, and then this thing will be useful." ”
Mu Fengye put down the computer and glanced at Sakura, who was standing on the bed only a head taller than herself: "Put on your socks, otherwise your shoes will be awkward." ”
"It's verbose. Sakurama simply put black over-the-knee socks on her fair thighs, put on her shoes and left the house with Mu Fengye, her hair was messy, and her body was full of housely smell.
"You haven't showered in a few days?"
"Four days. ”
"Remember to take a shower when you get back, you're starting to stink. ”
"It's better than the smell of blood, don't always pick and choose, it's already here. Sakuruma walked slowly beside her, rubbing her red eyes from time to time.
There was no one left next to the vegetable garden, and in order to make sure that the thieves had hidden the food elsewhere, Jill and Teru Kawada had gone to the second and third floors to search.
"It's tragic. Sakuruma crouched down and looked at some of the broken rhizomes in the dirt, the thief was a careless and ambitious fellow, and of course there was no such person among the students, because they had no idea what kind of person they were hiding in the depths of this skin.
"Don't go ahead!" she sighed reassuringly as one foot hung over the dirt when she was pulled back by Sakurama, "It's good you didn't destroy these footprints, take a picture before you go in." ”
"Click. ”
