Chapter 129: Thieves
Looking at the sneaky figure under the courtyard wall, it is estimated that it is a thief who broke in. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info but, this guy is not good at stealing anyone, he actually stole from me, which will make him look too good to talk if he doesn't have some bad luck.
I was about to do it, but suddenly I found that another black shadow was jumping down from the courtyard wall, and it smashed on the black shadow under the courtyard wall.
After the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground, there was no more sound, and the black shadow that jumped down from the wall looked down at him, and pushed it twice, but the shadow on the ground did not move.
It's not going to be stoned to death, is it? I thought to myself, the black shadow in front of me had already gotten up, and kicked the black shadow on the ground twice, but the black shadow on the ground was still gone.
The black shadow that had just come down began to move slowly in the direction of me, and I looked at him, and then there was another sound of an object falling to the ground, and the black shadow in front of me crouched on the spot, turned its head to look, and slowly moved to the window under my eyes.
I went to look at the location where the noise came from just now, and there was a dark shadow in the courtyard again, and I suddenly felt interesting, there were so many thieves tonight, and it didn't look like a gang.
It was really dark enough tonight, and it is estimated that the two people couldn't see where the other person's person was, and the later people did not go to my side, but went in a different direction.
The man under the window got up, and I was only a window away from him, and I could clearly see the back of his head.
"Who?"
A familiar shout, like the voice of a servant we brought from Hangzhou, may have found the last person to come in.
"Who's making noise?"
Zhuo Ran's voice came from the room behind him, and he saw that the people outside the window suddenly ran under the courtyard wall.
There was a sound of footsteps behind me, and as soon as I turned around, my eyes lit up, and I was startled.
Zhuo Ran lit the oil lamp on the table, and at this moment he just moved his gaze to the bed, whispering, "Where did Xiao Li go again?" ”
"Such a big person is here, why didn't you see it!" I said out loud.
Zhuo Ran turned his head and never looked away when he saw me.
"What's wrong?" I asked him.
"Can't you sleep?" Zhuo Ran said.
"Nope!" After saying that, I remembered that there were still people outside the window, and when I looked again, a shadow just disappeared on the wall.
"Who?" A voice shouted outside the wall, this time unfamiliar.
"What's going on?" Zhuo Ran walked over quickly and asked me.
"It seems like a thief." I say.
There was a bright light outside the window, and a few people with lanterns came out of a corner, and it was the people we brought from Hangzhou.
"What's going on?" Zhuo Ran asked.
"My lord, someone broke into the courtyard just now, are you okay?" The voice of the answer came from outside the courtyard gate.
Zhuo Ran and I looked at each other, and finally he said to take a look, and I followed him out of the room.
"My lord, someone broke in just now, but unfortunately we didn't catch him and let him run away." One of the men carrying the lantern said.
I glanced under the courtyard wall and saw that the smashed man who didn't know whether he was alive or dead was still lying there, so I grabbed Zhuo Ran in front of me and pointed it out to him.
"Who's that?" Zhuo Ran went over there in confusion.
"I'll see!"
I got to the man lying on the ground before him and reached out to sniff his breath.
"Alive." The man was breathing evenly, and it seemed that he had only been knocked unconscious.
"Are you alright, sir?" The voice outside the courtyard asked again.
"Who's out there?" Zhuo Ran asked.
"My lord, I'm Menlin!" A voice outside the door said.
"Go open the door." Zhuo Ran said to the people in the courtyard.
The subordinate opened the courtyard door, and in the dim light, the door catcher walked in with an unsheathed knife and a few catchers with lanterns. Seeing Zhuo Ran, Qi Qi arched his hand and said, "My lord!" There were five people in total.
"Why are you here in the middle of the night?" Zhuo Ran asked.
The head of the door catcher said again: "My lord doesn't know, recently, in this city, thieves have made a lot of trouble, and the little one and a few brothers have patrolled around this road." ”
Zhuo Ran pointed to the person under the courtyard wall and said, "Look how he is." ”
When the doorman heard this, he walked to the wall with several people, first probed the man's snort, and then asked someone to set him up.
"Wake up, wake up!" The door catcher "snapped" and gave the unconscious man a few slaps.
"Do you know him?" Zhuo Ran asked.
The door catcher stopped and replied, "Lord Hui, this person is Li Er from North Street, I don't know how he got in, and he is still asleep." ”
"What does he do?" I asked the door to catch the head.
"Mrs. Hui's words, this Li Er is a habitual thief, he has been caught by us a few times, and he has been locked up a few times, but he didn't expect that he still didn't change, and he must have come in to steal things this time. There are also his accomplices outside the door, and our men have gone after them. The door catcher said.
"Let's lock him up first, and I'll deal with it when he wakes up tomorrow." Zhuo Ran pointed to the one named Li Er and said.
"Yes!" After answering the call, the head of the door ordered to go down and put the people in the cell first.
"Let's go back to sleep!" Zhuo Ran turned to me and said.
I nodded, left the people in the courtyard who had not dispersed, and returned to the room side by side with Zhuo Ran.
"Still can't sleep? Is it because of me? Zhuoran asked me, who was sitting alone at the table.
"I don't want to sleep because I'm being noisy." I say.
"You haven't slept all the time, are you really just being wobbled up?" Zhuoran came over and sat down across from me.
"Who said I hadn't slept all the time, I was woken up by a noise outside. It's not the first time I've slept in the same bed with you, so why can't I sleep. I said.
Zhuo Ran looked directly at me without squinting and said, "Why don't you mind what happens between us?" Am I really not worthy of your trust in this life? ”
I looked back at him, not knowing what to say for a moment, and finally made an excuse: "I want to sleep." ”
Before he could respond, I got up and walked to where the bed was.
"I don't know why you stayed with me, I know I have a lot of bad things, and I don't even know where you're from. However, I really want you to have my presence in the days to come. Whether it's because I already have you in my heart, or ...... The fact that there is already between us! Zhuo Ran's voice sounded behind me.
"Isn't it good for us to be friends for life, why does it have to be that kind of relationship between men and women?" I said, my mind was a little empty, a little swollen, and I didn't even want to think about anything.
Zhuo Ran was silent, and I didn't sleep, sitting on the edge of the bed and following the silence.
"Hee-hee!" A laugh suddenly sounded in the room, Zhuo Ran and I were startled at the same time, Zhuo Ran asked, "What are you laughing at?" ”
I immediately clarified: "Not me! ”
"It's not you, I misheard?" Zhuo Ran said.
I didn't answer his words, and searched the house around, but found nothing.
"Maybe it's some other sound outside, sleep, you still have a lot to do tomorrow."
After I finished speaking, I took the lead in lying down on the inside of the bed, closing my eyes and avoiding everything that was under me......
However, this night, I did not fall asleep, and in the slight snoring of Zhuo Ran, the mind that I wanted to empty was full of laughter of unknown origin...... (To be continued.) )
