037.Measure the knife (above)

Since you can't use normal means to obtain the shadow seam, then the only choices left are the three categories of stealing, robbing, and cheating.

Grabbing this item can be ruled out first, to be able to become the mayor of such a huge town as Binshui Town, Shi Wucao's force and intelligence should be extraordinary, and the group of family thugs in the mayor's mansion are not dry meals, just because Bai Xiaoqiu and Shi Manqian want to break in and grab things, it is tantamount to holding a kitchen knife to provoke a dragon, it is purely death.

As for the deception, there is no hope, Shi Wucao can't be an idiot, and Bai Xiaoqiu has no connections and no resources in Binshui Town, and he has to participate in the hunting ceremony after a while, so he doesn't even have enough time, and it is obviously unrealistic to want to lay an empty glove white wolf.

Therefore, without much entanglement, Bai Xiaoqiu decided on the last resort - stealing.

However, no matter what means are chosen, the information of the mayor's house is indispensable, the more detailed the better, Shi Manqian set off to find other hunters he knew to talk, while Bai Xiaoqiu could only go to places like taverns and casinos to listen to the news, and later went to the mayor's house to peep for a long time.

As a result, the information collected by the two of them in the past few days was pitiful, most of it was short gossip from some parents, and there was no clue at all as to where the shadow gap was hiding. This is also expected, Shi Wucao's family has a great cause, and the shadow crack is his most precious lifeline, how can outsiders find out casually. What's more, Bai Xiaoqiu and they had to be more careful when they asked, so that others could not see the abnormality, otherwise they would not want to get their hands on the shadow crack if their purpose was exposed early, not to mention the subsequent revenge of the mayor's family.

As for the gossip of the mayor's family, there is nothing to use, Shi Wuxian's family wants money, money, power, and power, although the family is inevitably a little dirty, but it is not harmless, and it seems that a while ago he also accepted a fourth concubine, the standard life winner template, it can be said that there is no flaw.

Bai Xiaoqiu's original intention to use Shi Wuxian's family relationship to start, and the idea of finding a way to blackmail or trade was also shattered.

Steal, only steal!

Now I went back to the www.biquge.info of the Biqu Pavilion, if you want to steal something, you have to know where the thing is, right? Bai Xiaoqiu, the big mansion of the mayor's house, has seen it, leaning on the edge of the city and leaning on the river to occupy a large area, the entrance hall, the main hall, and the back hall are all available, and the aimless rummaging must be beaten out.

After dinner, Bai Xiaoqiu and Shi Manqian sat in the guest room of the inn, looking at the simple map that Bai Xiaoqiu had drawn for several days on the table.

"If you dig any further, you won't be able to ask for any useful information," Shi Manqian said weakly while holding his chin, "and it may also expose our actions." ”

Bai Xiaoqiu's fingers tapped on the table one by one, sorting out his thoughts. He has a unique advantage in stealing, and everyone can imagine what it means to be able to steal to a thief, so it is not too difficult to steal things, the key is to determine the location of the shadow seam.

"Since we can't find out the location of the shadow crack, can we change our thinking and let Shi Wuwu expose the location of the shadow crack by himself?" Bai Xiaoqiu muttered as if talking to herself.

"How is it possible, he's not stupid?"

Bai Xiaoqiu is a player who has seen Conan, and he knows a little bit about the methods of the thief Kidd, so after a little thought, he came up with a similar plan: "Are there any other collectors in Waterside Town?" Or is it a place with a lot of valuables? ”

"What are you going to do?" Shi Man asked puzzled.

"I'm going to start with other good places to start, steal some valuable treasures, and make a name for myself as a thief. When I was panicking in the town, I was letting out the news that I was going to steal the Shadow Seam, and then I hid and lurked around Shi Wucalamity. He knew that after someone targeted the Shadow Seam, he would inevitably go to the Shadow Seam's hiding place to take a look, so that no matter whether he transferred the Shadow Seam or strengthened the guards, I knew the hiding place of the Shadow Seam, so it would naturally be easy to get it. ”

Shi Manqian, a person from another world who had not been influenced by Conan, was stunned by Bai Xiaoqiu, and admired it: "Amazing, too powerful!" Xiaobai, you are so smart!! ”

Shi Manqian's eyes were full of adoration.

Bai Xiaoqiu flew up proudly, smiled with a wrinkled face, but pretended to be modest and waved his hand again and again: "It's nothing, nothing, I will come up with a dozen of this carving insect skills in minutes~" Okay, he is actually showing off.

"But this plan doesn't seem to be feasible," Shi Manqian said innocently with a finger on his lips: "There are very few places in Binshui Town that have valuables, only silver horns, pawnshops, and auction houses, and most of the other rich merchants only have some cash left, which does not meet your requirements for stealing. And the three places of the silver horn, the pawnshop, and the auction house are very tightly guarded, which is more than the mayor's house, and there is no information at all, and it is impossible for you to start with these three places to make a name, so it is better to do it directly to the mayor's house. ”

In fact, it is not absolutely impossible, there are still some differences between these three locations and the mayor's house in Shi Manqian's mouth, the silver number, the pawnshop, and the auction house all have to open their doors to do business, if he gives Bai Xiaoqiu some capital connections, he can still find a way to get in, but at the moment he has no money, no one and no time, and it is indeed too difficult to start from these three places.

Bai Xiaoqiu's tail that reached the sky immediately softened, and he lay on the table listlessly.

Shi Manqian mended the knife with a smile: "Didn't you just say that you can come up with a dozen of this kind of carving insect skills in minutes?" Let's have another one~~"

"Damn, I really can't think of it, can I?" Bai Xiaoqiu was furious, slapped the table and sat up, "Let's burn it with fire!" ”

In this world, wood products are widely used, and it is winter, and it is easy to catch fire when the weather is dry. If Bai Xiaoqiu chooses a good place to set fire, it is indeed likely that the entire house will be burned, and then Shi Wuqi will inevitably rescue those collections, and Bai Xiaoqiu will have the opportunity to take advantage of the chaos.

However, this plan only flashed in Bai Xiaoqiu's mind for a second before he passed it.

He and Shi Wuyan had no enmity in the past, and there was no grievance in the near future, and it was already very inauthentic to run to steal other people's things, and it would be a bit too much to set fire to other people's houses again. Moreover, the fire is difficult to control, and if you are not careful, you will cause death, which is absolutely unacceptable to Bai Xiaoqiu.

"Damn, you're not kidding, are you?!" Shi Manqian was shocked.

"Of course it's a joke," Bai Xiaoqiu slid onto the table very sluggishly, "If you play with it, you will die."

"Then is there any way to make Shi Wuwu reveal the location of the shadow crack by himself?"

"Don't make noise, don't make noise, you let me think about it slowly"

Bai Xiaoqiu began brainstorming: [Since arson can't be done, then I'll change my thinking, how about flooding? This is much safer] Flooding and burning are Mr. Wolong's two specialties, and Bai Xiaoqiu naturally thought of this method.

[However, flooding is much more difficult to achieve than fire, and the requirements for the environment are too high, so it is enough to succeed]

Thinking like this, Bai Xiaoqiu flipped through the map of Waterfront Town.
