Chapter 64: The Thief Who Stole the Money Bag

The shopkeeper's eyes became gentler at this time, and he said to the man and woman, "Go up!" ”

The man and the woman were about to go upstairs, but they were stopped by Ru Yan, who said, "Brother, can you let me go to your room to have a look?" Maybe I can help you find your money bag - without having to report to the police! ”

The man turned around and said happily, "That's good! Brother, this way, please! ”

"Eh, idle people, etc., don't go upstairs!" , shouted the shopkeeper. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

"They are not idle people, I have paid for their rooms, and they are also tenants!" As the man spoke, he took Ru Yan and the others upstairs.

Zifeng, who walked at the back, also threw a roll of the shopkeeper by the way.

The shopkeeper hurriedly followed.

"Come, brother, please here, my room is the one that is open, I just went downstairs and walked in a hurry, and the door is not closed!" , the man introduced.

As soon as he walked to the door, the door next door also opened, and a lean and lean head poked out, this person was over fifty, the man yawned, and asked, "What's the noise, don't disturb others, okay?" ”

Hazy Moon muttered in a low voice, "Where is the noise, the people here are really difficult to get along with!" ”

"Oh, I'm sorry, bro!" , The man who lost the money bag said apologetically: "I lost my money bag, this brother came to check it for me!" ”

The man next door opened the door and came out, and sure enough, his body was as thin as a monkey, his eyes slipped around everyone's body, and asked, "Lost in the room?" ”

"yes!" , replied the man who threw the money.

"That's a good look! The door is locked, and apart from you and your husband and wife, the only person who can enter this room is the shopkeeper, right? After the lean man finished speaking, he stared straight at the shopkeeper.

It's also strange to say, the shopkeeper began to be downstairs and was still confident, and at this moment, being stared at by a thin man, it seemed a little unnatural, "What do you mean by this?" ”

"I don't mean anything, I'm just talking about things, shopkeeper, don't be careful!" , the lean man replied.

"That's it!" , Zifeng replied, "I said this brother, you still dare to live in such a black shop, if you don't leave, your belongings will be stolen!" ”

"You fart!" , the shopkeeper scolded.

The thin man was silent, but his eyes kept rolling on Zi Feng, Zi Feng was shocked by the sight, and quickly followed Ru Yan into the room.

"That sister is right, shopkeeper, I don't dare to live in this store, I want to check out!" , a lean man's voice came from behind him.

"That's where my money bag was!" The man who lost the money pointed to a large square stool at the head of the bed, "It's here with these clothes, because we just went out to buy something and will be back soon, so we didn't pay attention to putting it away!" ”

Ru Yan looked at the large square stool carefully, and did not see any clues, she remembered that when she just entered the door, she saw that the door lock was good, and there was no sign of being broken. When I went to the window to check, the window was also closed and there was no sign of being pried. Ru Yan walked around the room again, but still couldn't see any problems. Finally, her gaze returned to the large square stool.

Ru Yan leaned down to inspect the underside of the square stool, but unexpectedly found a hole in the wall far away from the square stool, the hole was blocked with rags, and a little wall ash fell on the floor under the hole.

Ru Yan walked straight towards the hole.

"Alas, you have also seen this inn, just like that, if it weren't for this place where there is no accommodation for dozens of miles, who would live in him, I am a first-class room, but there are often mice swaggering in the room!" , explained the man who lost the money.

Zi Feng looked at the rat hole in the wall and said with a smile: "Brother, maybe, your money bag was taken away by the rats!" ”

Ru Yan, pull off the rags of the hole, look at the entrance of the hole, and find that this hole can see everything next door.

"Where's the man next door?" , Ru Yan suddenly shouted.

"Went downstairs with the shopkeeper to check out? What's wrong? Zifeng asked puzzled.

"Chase, that man is the one who stole the money bag!" Ru Yan shouted.

The purple wind and the hazy moon rushed away in response.

The lean man had just settled the bill and was about to go out, when he looked up and saw that the two girls upstairs had jumped directly from the second floor, so frightened that he hurriedly fled towards the door.

Zifeng hurriedly followed a few steps, turned over, and blocked the door, "Where are you going?" ”

The thin man tried to turn around again, but he hit Haze Moon headlong again, Hazy Moon grabbed his right shoulder with her right hand, making his bones creak, and then twisted his left hand, twisting his face to Zi Feng's side again.

"What's the matter? You've really sung it over and over again, haven't you? ", shouted the shopkeeper.

The man who was arrested screamed in pain, "Sister, what's wrong with you, you have something to say, something to say!" ”

"Shut up, who is the sister of the monkey spirit who can't pick out two taels of flesh from your body? Since you don't even know what's going on, what are you running? Zifeng scolded.

"Sister...... Oh no, girl, it's you two who were so scary that I had to run! ”

"Don't pretend anymore!" , Ru Yan stood on the second floor and shouted, "Hazy Yue, escort him upstairs!" ”

"What proof do you have that I took the purse?" The man's tone was full of disbelief, "I don't have the key to this room, how did I get in here and steal the money bag?" But the shopkeeper has a key on his body, and his suspicion is so big, why don't you catch him and arrest me? ”

Later, the shopkeeper who caught up scolded him: "Don't talk nonsense, I have the key and stupidly steal his money bag?" Who would do such a thing without three hundred taels of silver here? ”

"If I'm not mistaken, you're through this hole!" , Ru Yan pointed to the hole in the wall, "At that time, this brother's money bag was placed on this square stool, and this square stool was less than a foot away from the wall, you can pick up the money bag with a small bamboo pole and a small wooden stick next door, right?" ”

The man who was escorted sneered: "I said that you little white face don't pretend to be smart there, the entrance of the cave is so small, and the money bag is far larger than the entrance of the cave after being filled with silver, even if I can pick it up, I can't take it out!" ”

"Yes, he has a point!" , said the man who lost the money.

"That's right, you can pick it up, you can't take it. However, when you saw the husband and wife leave, you took the money bag here with a stick! Ru Yan pointed to the bottom of the bed, "Hidden, this brother entered the door and saw that the money bag was gone, and he was in a hurry, so he didn't look carefully, so he took his sister-in-law downstairs to find the shopkeeper, and because the two of them were in a hurry at that time, they didn't even close the door." That's when you slipped into the room and picked up the money bag! ”

Others suddenly realized~ So that's the case!

A hint of panic flashed across the lean man's face, but he quickly concealed it, "Hmph, it's like a nose and eyes, just like the real thing!" What about the evidence, where is the evidence? It is impossible to have human evidence, but what about physical evidence? What about the lost money bag? ”

"You're still screaming, aren't you?" , Zifeng said and went over to search the man's body.

The man was triumphant and smiled cheaply, "My sister's hands are so soft, and my brother is so comfortable to touch!" ”

"Zifeng, there is no need to search, since he is so sure, it will not be on him!" , Ru Yan said.

Zi Feng was so angry that he punched the man, the man groaned, and continued to laugh cheaply: "This little temper, I like it!" I said it's a pity that you two girls look like flowers and follow that little white face. Why don't you follow me, I promise to let you enjoy all the glory and wealth! ”

Zifeng was so angry that he was ready to fight again, but let Haze Yue take the lead, Hazy Moon cut the man's hands behind him, and pushed his right knee hard against the man's waist, and the man let out a wail.

It hurts when others look at it.

"Zifeng, go to his room and search it! Search carefully, especially in the corners or in the cracks in the walls! Ru Yan said.

The purple wind passed in response.

The lean man immediately panicked, but pretended to be calm and said, "Little white face, you are also stupid, if anyone steals money and doesn't take it away but hides it in the retreating room, isn't that a theft in vain?" ”

Ru Yan squatted down and dipped her fingers in the ashes of the cave, "Because you are a frequent resident of the next room, although you quit the room to hide your eyes, you will come back soon!" ”。

"How do you know he's a regular occupant of that room?" , the shopkeeper asked in surprise.

"Judging by the thickness of the wall, and the thickness of the dust, you've spent a lot of time, right?" , Ru Yan looked at the thin man, "What's more, you have to pay attention to observation, wait until the owner of the house next door goes out before you can act, the action can't be too big, the action is too big to attract the shopkeeper." So, you should spend a lot of time. With so much hard work digging out holes little by little, you shouldn't just plan to do it once, right? So, you'll stay in this room often to make it easier to commit crimes! ”

"Why do you say that this is a hole I dug out, and that it can't be dug by a mouse?" The man asked.

Ru Yan sneered, "You're taking all of us for fools, aren't you?" Some rats dig burrows not close to the ground, but choose to dig more than a foot above the ground. What's more, looking at this trace, there is no trace of rat rodents, but it looks like a knife chiseled out! ”

After a while, Zifeng came back and threw a handful of things on the ground, and sure enough, there were small bamboo poles, small chisels and other crime work. In the end, Zifeng took out a money bag and said, "Brother, look at it, this money bag is not yours!" ”

"Yes, yes, this is my money bag!" The man and the woman were very happy.

Zi Feng turned around, and lifted the thin man's ear with one hand, "Your grandson is a mouse, hide everything in the wall, call your aunt and grandmother I can find it!" ”

The man's ears were red and he begged for mercy.

"Shopkeeper, what are you doing here, hurry up and look at the wall of the room next to you, there are more holes!" Zifeng said.

The shopkeeper hurriedly ran to the next door. (To be continued.) )
