Chapter 7 Pledge by example
For the sake of insurance, Xiao Qiongzhi painted a gourd in the same way, and the second and third levels along the building were ...... Ten levels, each rubbing, three kinds of footprints left by two groups of thieves, and many fingerprints on the escalators.
Then, she stood up, looked at Zhou Yuandong, and asked, "Patriarch Grandpa, can you send someone to block the intersection out of the village?" ”
"Do you think the thieves are still in the village and haven't left?" Zhou Yuandong was about to answer, but the beautiful boy suddenly answered first.
It seems that this kid is not only good-looking, but also quite enthusiastic and smart.
Xiao Qiongzhi has always liked to deal with this kind of person, and smiled at him sweetly: "Yes." ”
"Why?" The beautiful boy is curious.
"Two points."
"First, it has been raining in the village for more than half a month, and it has only turned sunny today, and many people must be suffocated, in the afternoon, when the ground is basically dry, go out for a walk, so, at this time, it is not only a good time for thieves to burglary, but also an unfavorable time for them to abscond behind their backs after they steal a lot of things."
"Second, not only was all my family's money and belongings stolen, but even the bowls of my stove house were all smashed, which shows that these three thieves, in our village, should let go of the wind, because the movement of smashing the bowl is relatively large, only if there is an internal release, knowing that no one is coming, will not be afraid of making a big noise and exposing their whereabouts."
"In addition, after the three thieves stole the property, it is impossible not to share the spoils with Neiying, and Neiying, since he dares to take someone to steal my family's property, it is naturally to take revenge on my family and watch my family's jokes, so, in his heart, sharing the spoils is not as important as watching jokes."
"It is very likely that he is hiding in a corner, keeping an eye on the movement of my house, and has not had time to participate in the distribution of the spoils, resulting in the three thieves, and therefore unable to leave."
"Zhi'er, your analysis is very reasonable, I will immediately arrange for someone to guard the entrance of the village." Zhou Yuandong listened to it on the side and immediately made a decision.
He knew that Zhou Dazhi had always been kind to people in the village, and those who were dissatisfied with him were selfish to the end, and only Zhou Lili's mother and son.
When Zhou Yuandong came over before, he had already heard from the mouths of the big girl, the dog, and the stone that Zhou Lili came out of Xiao Qiongzhi's house after it was stolen, and at the same time, he also saw Zhou Lili's old lady Liu Old Vixen, and after Zhou Lili left, she suddenly ran to the door of Xiao Qiongzhi's yard to make trouble.
He actually knew in his heart who Xiao Qiongzhi was talking about in the village, but he was a cautious person, and he wouldn't say anything until the evidence was conclusive.
"Thank you, Patriarch, Grandpa. However, Grandpa Patriarch, I have one more thing to trouble you. Xiao Qiongzhi didn't expect Zhou Yuandong to agree so quickly, so he hurriedly struck while the iron was hot.
"What's the matter?" Zhou Yuandong asked softly.
He had just seen Xiao Qiongzhi's methods of collecting evidence and analyzing the logic of the thief's whereabouts, and felt that she was simply a little prodigy.
It's no wonder that Zhou Dazhi can pamper her as his own daughter, it is him, when he didn't know this little girl before, he didn't think it was much, but now that he knows her, he also likes it very much, and he can't wait to have such a granddaughter.
"Please take out these nine sets of rubbing footprint paper, bring a few more people, and compare them door to door, and don't miss it except for our own villagers, including those who come to the village to visit relatives, so as not to make omissions." After Xiao Qiongzhi finished speaking, he handed him the paper, leaving only one group in his hand.
As for those rubbing fingerprints, Xiao Qiongzhi didn't give them to Xiao Yuandong for the time being, and planned to take them out and slap them in the face when the footprints were found.
"Okay, I'll personally supervise this." Without further ado, after Zhou Yuandong finished speaking, he left with the two clansmen, the beautiful boy and Qin Feng.
More than half an hour later, Zhou Yuandong sent someone to find Zhou Dazhi, saying that the three thieves had been caught, and they had both stolen goods, and asked him to claim the lost property.
Zhou Dazhi usually has rich or valuable things, so he handed them over to Chu Yunniang, and she used them casually, she didn't know how much money she had lost at home, and when she went to claim it, she simply brought Chu Yunniang and Xiao Qiongzhi over together.
Unexpectedly, the place where it was claimed was actually in the courtyard of Zhou Lili's house.
Moreover, Zhou Yuandong, Mei Boy, Qin Feng and others are all there.
Zhou Lili's old lady, Liu Lao Vixen, Zhou Lili, and three other men of the same age as Zhou Lili, were in a very embarrassing situation at this time: they were all kneeling and tied under the willow tree, with rags stuffed in their mouths, and their faces and bodies, more or less, were covered with obvious scars and bloodstains.
It is estimated that before being caught, there were acts of resistance and fighting.
In the middle of the courtyard, there were piles of money, clothes, and millet stolen from Xiao Qiongzhi's house.
As soon as Zhou Dazhi saw it, he immediately took Chu Yunniang forward to count.
Xiao Qiongzhi didn't know what exactly was lost at home, so she didn't help.
She pointed to the five tied guys and asked Zhou Yuandong in a curious whisper: "Patriarch Grandpa, are these five people all thieves who steal my family's property?" ”
Zhou Yuandong nodded.
Xiao Qiongzhi asked again: "Are they all arrested here?" ”
Zhou Yuandong replied: "No, only the Liu family was caught here, and the other four were caught in the woods at the entrance of the village." ”
"Huh? It's dangerous, which means that they almost escaped from the village. Xiao Zirao's eyes widened.
"Yes, I'm glad you reminded me to arrange for someone to guard the entrance of the village." Zhou Yuandong still has some lingering palpitations.
The beautiful young man on the side, at this time, walked over with great interest and told Xiao Zirao: "The person you should be most grateful for is me, because I was the first to discover Zhou Li's four people." ”
"So, how did you find out?" Xiao Zirao was a little surprised.
The beautiful young man replied proudly: "I also suspect that the thief is still in the village, and after leaving your house, I will take Qin Feng and Patriarch Zhou to arrange for the people guarding the entrance of the village to go to the entrance of the village together." ”
"When passing by the woods at the entrance of the village, Qin Feng heard movement inside, went in to check, and happened to find Zhou Lili and three other people sharing the spoils inside, so he arrested them all and handed them over to the people of the Zhou patriarch to deal with."
"So that's the case, thank you and Qin Feng so much." Xiao Zirao said sincerely.
The beautiful boy disagreed: "This kind of verbal thanks, sincerity is limited, I am not rare, if you really have the heart, you have to take some practical action." ”
"So what kind of practical actions do you want me to take?" Xiao Zirao felt that something was wrong.
"Promise by example, you little girls repay your kindness, don't you all repay it like this?" The beautiful boy raised his eyebrows and began to smile.
It's a good smile.
However, at a young age, I don't learn well, and I use excuses to play beautiful girls, which is too disagreeable.
Xiao Qiongzhi said matter-of-factly: "There is no such thing! As far as I know, the premise of making a promise is that the man is not only from a good family, or a famous hero, but also tall and handsome, and the jade tree is in the wind. ”
"And you, even if you are a good family, but you are too short, your eyebrows and eyes have not grown, and you are too far away from Gao Gao Junjun and Yushu Linfeng, in case you grow crooked in the future, it will kill a person, forget it, forget it, you still don't come to harm me." As she spoke, Xiao Qiongzhi deliberately showed a look of embarrassment and disgust.
