Chapter Ninety-Five: "Little Thief"?
Entering the courtyard, what Li Ran saw was very different from the scene before he left.
There was no one for a while, and the yard was full of leaves and dead branches. And because it was winter, no one cleaned up a few snowfalls, and there was still snow in the corner.
But he is not surprised by this, after all, no one has lived in it for a long time, and it is not strange to have these.
However, he was really angry when he looked at the foul-smelling excrement in the corner and the garbage that filled the yard, as well as the jujube tree in the yard that had almost been broken off its branches.
When he left before, a group of neighbors helped to clean the yard very cleanly, but now seeing the mess in the yard, he couldn't help but be angry.
He can be regarded as a generous person, but no one would want their yard to be ruined like this, even if the yard is not intended to be inhabited anymore.
In fact, it stands to reason that there should not be any unsightly thieves to patronize. Thieves steal things for profit, but running to steal things from the cliff is a trip for nothing.
When I first moved, I basically moved everything that should have been moved. I moved what I could and necessary, and I moved it several times, and some of the furniture was given to my neighbors.
In the end, there were really not many things left, just some torn clothes, bedding, and big beds and cabinets that no one wanted. But what thief would be stupid enough to steal these things? Moreover, the locks outside the courtyard gate have not been picked, and it does not look like a bad thief.
This is a little strange, what kind of person would be so immoral to run to other people's homes to toss so much? Li Ran was angry and puzzled at the same time.
The doors of the east, west, and south rooms were all open, and the inside was empty, except for a layer of dust on the ground and cobwebs in the corners, while the door of the main room was closed. Therefore, Li Ran went directly into the main house.
When I entered the door, I saw that there were some unburned branches in an enamel basin, which seemed to be a brazier used for heating.
"Is it a homeless man?" Seeing the scene in front of him, Li Ran thought.
There was only a bed and a two-meter-high cabinet in the room, which were left behind. But there are also some old clothes, rotten shoes, broken boxes, old books and other rags, which are obviously the "culprits" who tossed the yard into such a thing.
I looked around for a while, and when I came in, I didn't see anyone running over the wall. Squatted down and touched a brazier, and the hot temperature of his hands told him that "this person" didn't seem to have left or had just left.
This is interesting, Li Ran wants to see who dares to be so bold and presumptuous in his house.
If you make sure that this person has not left or has just left, then either the person is still in the courtyard, or he will come back. Either way, he was very likely to catch this man.
Thinking of this, Li Ran was ready to search first to see if it was still hiding in the yard, and if not, he locked the door and went out to wait for the rabbit.
There were not many places in the courtyard where people could hide, and the other three rooms were empty, so if the person wanted to hide, he had to hide in the main house.
There was nothing to find in the outside room, so Li Ran went into the back room, and when he saw that there was no one under the bed, there was only one cabinet left.
This wardrobe is also a few years old, it's not a good thing, it's not only heavy but also shabby, so no one wanted it before.
The cabinet consists of two parts, upper and lower, with three drawers below and a wardrobe above. The cabinet is not very high, and there are drawers underneath, so it is not so easy to hide an adult. Li Ran didn't think that people would hide here, so he planned to go out when he saw that there was no one under the bed.
When he turned around and was about to leave, suddenly the ghost god turned around and reached out to open the cabinet door, and at the moment when he was about to open the cabinet door, a small figure pushed open the cabinet door and rushed out. While hugging his legs, he shouted in his mouth: "Yaya, run ...... quickly"
At this moment, another cabinet door opened, and a smaller figure stumbled out of it, and the pigtail on its head should be a little girl.
The little girl didn't run after jumping out, but hugged his other leg and opened her mouth to bite it.
Okay, before Li Ran could react to what was happening, he was slammed by the little guy.
The little girl has a lot of strength, and he has a pair of thin wool pants on his body, and Li Ran, who hurts, is called sour. And it's not just the physical pain, but also the mental grievances, it's really a shame to provoke anyone, this unjustified disaster!
Reaching out and grabbing the little girl who was biting her left leg first, it was really painful. Carrying her felt unexpectedly light, and it was not much different from the usual hug, but although this little thing had a small temper, it was not small, and her little hand stretched out and wanted to scratch Li Ran.
The kid holding Li Ran's right leg on the other side watched his sister being carried in the air, and without waiting for Li Ran to speak, he bit down with another mouthful, hitting Li Ran's calf and stomach.
"Hiss......" He gasped hard in pain. I'm afraid that these brothers and sisters are not both dogs, how could they do such a trick.
This is much more painful than the little girl's bite just now, and under the conditioned reflex, he almost kicked the bastard out.
Fortunately, at the critical moment, he remembered that he was still a child, so he endured the pain and said in a deep voice: "Boy, let go, or I will throw this little girl out." ”
Sure enough, this kid was still clinging to her sister, and after listening to Li Ran's words, she immediately let go of her mouth.
Then he didn't let go, still holding Li Ran's legs. Raising his head, holding up his dirty face, he looked at Li Ran pleading with a pair of red eyes.
A child who looked no more than ten years old, his eyes were full of sadness, and his stubborn expression moved Li Ran even more.
"Uncle, let go of Yaya, if you want to beat me, you can beat me." He pleaded and sobbed. And the little girl who heard her brother open stopped struggling at this time, and began to cry loudly, crying was a heartbreak.
Li Ran, who had not figured out the situation in the first place, was even more confused at this time. Listening to the increasingly intense crying, it was simply a head bigger than two, and I was stunned and at a loss.
To be honest, after living for so many years, this is the first time I have encountered this kind of thing. And his head is muddy here, and the two children over there are still crying, he really can't calm down and think.
I had no choice but to say helplessly: "Okay, don't cry......"
Two children: "Wow......"
Maybe it was really sad, Li Ran's words were useless, he cried even louder, and he couldn't stop at all.
"I said, don't cry," Li Ran yelled.
The world fell silent......
……
"So, what's your name?" Li Ran asked.
"Tinman," the little boy replied.
"Then you're Ding Yaya?" Turning his head to look at the little girl
"Hmm!" The little girl replied timidly.
Then Li Ran asked, "Why are you at my house?" ”
"......" two small silences.
He asked, "What about your parents?" ”
"......" silence plus one.
He asked again, "Where is your home, have you run away from home?" ”
"......" silence plus two.
Five minutes later, Li Ran, who was sitting on the edge of the bed, pulled up his trouser leg to look at the bite wound, and "interrogated" the two "little thieves" who were caught.
However, Li Ran, who had made a lot of effort, found nothing but the names of the two children.
Li Ran made a mistake now, he really didn't know what to do with these two children.
One looked to be no more than thirteen or fourteen years old, while the other was five or six years old at best. It is very likely that such a small two ran away from home because of a conflict with their family, but now they can't ask anything, even if Li Ran wants to send them back, he doesn't know where to send them!
No matter how difficult the problem is, it must be solved, after all, he can't let such two young children live on the streets like this.
But no matter how Li Ran persuaded him, it was useless to even threaten the police, and the two children just didn't let go.
In this way, things will be troublesome, if they don't open their mouths, Li Ran won't be able to ask. If he can't ask, the matter will be held, and he won't be able to leave.
So, one big and two small fell silent. Li Ran sat on the edge of the bed and pondered, while the two bear children stood obediently in front of him.
And just when Li Ran was thinking hard, there was a burst of "grunt...... The sound of cooing ......" rang out over the two children.
