There was such a big commotion in the living room, Duan Zhiquan was woken up even if he slept to death. By the time he got dressed and came to the living room, the brightly lit living room was already crowded with soldiers who had been in ambush. Seeing him come out, the soldiers lowered their heads in shame. Indeed, so many people let people steal things right under their noses, and if it weren't for the next person to add firewood, they wouldn't know that the thing was gone!

"Sir, we really haven't let our guard down. The brothers who took turns on duty in the third shift stared at the doors and windows without blinking, and they never opened or closed them at all. With such a tight guard, your command knife can still be gone, what the hell! ”

The captain of the guard who led the team was able to distinguish himself, and the military hat in his hand was about to be crumpled by him. After following Duan Shuai for so many years, he actually messed up such an important matter, and the shame and chagrin can be imagined. It's just that he can take the responsibility for his dereliction of duty himself, but he can't let these brothers be wronged.

Seeing him and his soldiers hanging their heads, even Duan Zhiquan couldn't bear it.

"Fusheng, you don't have to blame yourself too much. Even if it's gone for a while, as long as you can catch the thief, it's worth it! And if a man falls into our hands, will he not find anything? ”

Duan Zhiquan waved his hand to make these people retreat, thought for a while, and kept the chief guard named Fusheng.

"You immediately take two people and drive my car to this address to pick up a child named Wang Fan. You must be polite, and you can't treat him as an ordinary child, you must call Mr. Little respectfully! Got it? Go and come back quickly! ”

The butler walked in from the outside and bent down to report. "Master, Captain Hu of the police station asked, are they ready to go?"

"Without further ado, let's go!"

The yard resounded with the sound of dogs barking, followed by a chaotic footsteps. A large group of policemen with long guns on their backs, riding bicycles, followed by several policemen with dogs, rushed out of the Duan Mansion, and slowly infiltrated the streets of Jingshi in the dawn of daylight.

Wang Mengxiong was woken up in his sleep, hurriedly dressed, and got into the car sent by Duan Zhiquan. He didn't expect that the swallow Li San would be so impatient, this head had just laid a trap and arranged the fragrant bait, and there was news of swallowing the hook over there. It seems that Li San's IQ is overestimated a bit!

The head of the guard, Fusheng, looked at the seven or eight-year-old child, sitting in the car calmly, without the panic that ordinary children should show, and there was a faint emotion of excitement and anticipation in his expression, which made him even more surprised.

"Little sir, can I ask you something?"

"Just call me Wang Fan, don't call me Mr. Xiao. You are a person sent by Duan Dashuai, please let me know if you have something. ”

"That's not possible, Duan Shuai has explained, you must be called Mr." Although the head of the Fusheng guard felt a little embarrassed to call such a child Mr., he didn't dare to change the matter that Duan Shuai explained.

"Okay, whatever you want. If you want to call it that, just call it that, or ask me! ”

"That, did Mr. Xiao already guess that our Duan Shuai wanted to invite you over so early because of something?"

Wang Mengxiong smiled slightly, "Of course, I have met Duan Dashuai before because of one thing. Except for the snitch swallow Li San, I can't think of anything else that can labor you to come to me. ”

Looking at Fusheng's surprised expression, Wang Mengxiong's evil taste suddenly came up, and he decided to let his mouth open a little wider.

"I guess, didn't catch this swallow Li San, and let the family steal Duan Dashuai's treasure knife. I guess you haven't even seen a human figure, right? ”

Fusheng's mouth instantly opened to the maximum, and he began to stutter when he spoke.

"You, how do you know? Could it be that you are in the same group as that snitch Li San? ”

He subconsciously wanted to pull out his gun, but after thinking about it, how could the gentleman who Duan Shuai personally asked him to invite politely be with the snitch? Thinking of this, Fusheng lowered his arm in a daze, and instead looked intently at the road. There are some things that I don't understand now, and when I get to Duan Shuai, everything will fall into place.

In the living room of the Duan Mansion, Duan Zhiquan saw Wang Mengxiong again and showed great enthusiasm. "Wang Fan Xiaoyou, everything is as you expected. It's just that I didn't expect this swallow Li San to be so rampant, and I couldn't wait to steal my command knife before the news was reported. The police station has already chased after it, and I believe that there will be a result soon. But I still don't know something, please Xiaoyou to solve my doubts? ”

"Duan Gong, please speak!"

"I'm not talking about the iron walls here, and they are also impervious to wind and rain. The doors and windows are good, and the people in ambush are also doing their best, so how did Li San steal the command knife? ”

Wang Mengxiong didn't answer immediately, but checked the doors and windows first, and found that there was indeed no damage at all as Duan Zhiquan said. He went to the fireplace, looked at it, and suddenly noticed a black mark left next to the knife holder. Stretched out his hand and twisted it, and found that it was just ordinary plant ash.

Duan Zhiquan followed him, and saw that he was more concerned about this thing, and hurriedly explained: "This is soot, I also saw it before, it may have been obtained when the next person changed firewood."

Wang Mengxiong shook his head, and suddenly found a little water stain on the ground next to the fireplace. "Was this room cleaned last night?"

"Mother Wu is diligent and hardworking, and she will wipe the room clean every night." Although Duan Zhiquan didn't know what he meant, he still replied honestly.

"Did the fire in this fireplace go out once in between?"

Although Wang Mengxiong still has some doubts that he has not figured out, he is roughly eight points sure, and he asks this because he wants to verify the last conjecture in his heart.

"Go get the person in charge of the fireplace and ask them!"

Duan Zhiquan's order was executed quickly, and the results were quickly available.

"Master, when the day was about to dawn, I felt a little cold, only to find that the halberd that could burn for a long time in the past had been extinguished early. Later, I went to the kitchen and got the coals from the charcoal tray and re-lit them. Strange, I've never done this before, and I got a lot of cigarettes. ”

"Alright, got it. Say whatever you ask, don't talk nonsense, go down! ”

The man bowed down, still muttering strangely.

Wang Mengxiong coughed lightly, attracting Duan Zhiquan's attention. Fusheng had been by his side, and he pricked up his ears expectantly, wanting to hear the little gentleman's explanation.

"It was clear that the snitch had come in through the chimney of the roof and had easily stolen the knife through the fireplace. Your soldiers are just looking at the doors and windows, and they must not have noticed that there was anyone in the fireplace, right? ”

"Impossible! The fireplace was full of smoke, and who could hold back such a smoky fire without making a sound. Hey, the fire went out for a while. But how did the thief know that the fire would be extinguished during this time? ”

Duan Zhiquan's head ached faintly when he thought about it, and he didn't figure out why this Li San would be unpredictable.

"The fire was not extinguished naturally, but by the snow that poured into the chimney. The water stains next to the ramparts are proof of this. If you don't believe me, send someone to the roof to check it, and the snow will disappear somewhere for no reason! ”
