Chapter 022 Find the key
"Hurry up, I'm afraid grandma will worry if it's too late."
A crisp female voice interrupted the fat man's memories. He tensed and let out a sigh of relief when he heard the sound of the door lock turning outside. He wondered why he had not locked them up, and if they were still hanging on the door, why he could only hear the sound of a key. Maybe it was when I was hiding here that someone else took the key.
It must be some kind of naughty child, he thought indignantly. But at least there was no mistake in his judgment and speculation, and the woman would come back to find the key. But he could tell that it was not a person's voice outside the house, but the voice of a girl.
He squinted his little eyes and leaned over to the crack in the closet, holding his breath and looking outward, he saw Xiao Zi hurrying into the bedroom, wearing the denim jacket. She stood by the bedroom door for a moment, then lifted the quilt and looked anxiously for something. Just as he was about to pounce and push her to the bed, another girl suddenly appeared in sight.
He shouted in his heart that it was not good, he could still cope with one person, but there were two people in front of him for no reason, unless he had three heads and six arms to catch both of them, otherwise he would definitely be the one who suffered.
If one is caught, the other will definitely run away, and if you call the police, you will be in big trouble, and maybe three other people will be involved, so their previous efforts will be in vain. There must be no risk, and now it is definitely impossible to kidnap that woman, it is a big deal to return in vain, in this case, Bai Yu will not do anything with himself.
Xiao Zi rummaged through the whole bed and there was no trace of any key, Lu Wanting lay under the bed and looked inside, then got up and turned around, her eyes stayed on every furnishing in the bedroom, and her mind searched for where the key might appear.
She came to the wardrobe and stared at the wardrobe for a few seconds, the fat man hid in it and didn't dare to come out, his back was tightly pressed against the cold wardrobe, and a cold sweat oozed from his back. His mind was spinning fast, and if she opened the closet to find herself, would he run away or take the opportunity to knock her unconscious?
If she escapes, she will definitely be able to see her face, and now the crime solving technology is so advanced, you only need to describe the main characteristics of the other party, and a professional painter can draw a portrait with a high degree of similarity according to a simple description; If you knock her out, you will miss the opportunity to kidnap Xiao Zi, and she can easily escape and find someone for help.
He looked at his side, there was nothing to cover his face, and there was nothing hard in his hand except for a mobile phone. He looked down at his feet again, the muddy shoes in the washing machine, and he began to feel like he was really stupid at home, and either option was like a dead end.
Sweat ran down his neck and into his collar, and just as she was about to reach for the cupboard, a call sounded in the living room, and she walked out. The fat man's hands, which were trembling slightly from the high tension, finally stopped shaking, and he reached out to wipe the sweat from his neck.
It seems that he is now in a dilemma, he can't stay like this anymore, otherwise he will have to drive him crazy, he must come up with a chance not to be discovered.
He took out his mobile phone and was about to call the second and third children for help, but the phone screen that lit up instantly stung his eyes.
At this time, outside the house, when the middle-aged woman living upstairs left, Xiao Zi pulled Lu Wanting aside with a solemn expression, and whispered in her ear: "I suspect that there is a thief in the house." ”
She pouted, feeling that Xiao Zi was too sensitive, and was about to persuade Xiao Zi to give up the missing key and hurry home with her to make lunch. Before the words could be spoken, Xiao Zi lowered her voice even more, and continued: "I clearly remember that the bedroom door was closed, and the curtains were also opened by me. ”
After Xiao Zi said her conjecture, her eyes widened, and she unconsciously covered her slightly open mouth with her hand, with an expression of disbelief.
Not to mention her, even Xiao Zi couldn't believe that although the house she rented was dilapidated, there were few thefts, probably because its appearance had become a safe cover, and ordinary thieves would not patronize it at all.
In addition to the cheap rent, there is also a subjective reason that cannot be ignored, that is, the residents here are amiable, and they still have the kind of neighborly relationship that people used to take care of.
When she first moved here, Xiao Zi often went out early and returned late because of work, and the eldest sister on the other side of the door and the uncle upstairs would tell her to be careful on the road. If it weren't for the fact that there was so much evidence that there were thieves in her house, she would never have thought this way.
But what puzzled her the most was how he could open the door without prying it if a thief did sneak in? Why is there no sign of things being turned around in the house?
At this time, the door on the opposite side suddenly opened, and Xiao Hai, who looked sad and sad, walked out, and his father followed behind him, his face full of anger.
He stretched out a small fist in front of Lu Wanting, and when she opened it, she saw that what was lying on it was Xiao Zi's key!
Xiao Zi walked over, picked up the key and looked at it again, even more puzzled. Could it be that she left the key at the door of the house after going out in a panic, and then was picked up by Xiaohai? But Xiaohai is a good boy, he can't open the door and enter casually. Although he has a withdrawn personality due to his inability to speak, as far as she knows, his home education is strict.
She looked at Xiao Zi beside her, and both of them were relatively speechless. She squatted down, pulled Xiao Hai to her side, and asked softly, "Xiao Hai, tell my sister, where did you pick up this set of keys?" ”
He looked back at his father, who glared: "Tell the truth! He turned his head in fright, and then walked slowly to the lock of the door, which was shorter than his head, and pointed a finger at it, and then retreated in fear.
"Then tell my sister again, did you open the door and go in?"
He shook his head like a rattle, and his two small hands were swinging in front of him at the same time, looking very excited.
She finally put her mind at ease, she knew that the cute little boy in front of her was not a bad boy, he seemed to be more sensible than his peers when he couldn't speak, and he was very well-behaved every time he came to her house for dinner, and when she was cooking in the kitchen, he sat quietly on the sofa and watched cartoons.
But since the key was in his hands, he must know something they didn't know. She glanced up at Xiao Zi, took a deep breath, then pulled him into her arms and hugged him, raised her face to look at his father with a smile, and said, "Thank you Xiaohai, help my sister find the key." ”
His father's face returned to normal at this time, and he took a few steps forward, rubbed his hair, and said, "Okay, the key is back to my sister, let's go home." ”
Just as he was about to leave her, she quickly asked in his ear, "Did you see bad people in the house?" ”
With a nervous expression, he broke free of his father's big hand and nodded firmly at her. The reaction took her by surprise, and she felt her heart beat faster again, staring at him intensely.
He pointed to his hair, then to her black sneakers, and then spread his hands and gestured in front of his stomach in a large circle. She could understand the first two movements, which meant "black", but the last one made her puzzled. She frowned and shook her head at him.
He looked left and right, constantly making strange movements, even imitating the way someone walked. But the three adults present couldn't understand what he was doing.
"This kid, why is he disobedient again, hurry up and go home and do your homework." Dad came over impatiently and pulled him into the house.
One of his hands was grabbed, and the other hand was trying to break his father's fingers, but in the end he was pulled into the house, and he kept looking back at her with a very helpless look in his eyes.
At this time, all he could think about was the figure of the fat man wandering in front of her house, but he couldn't say anything, and his little face was red. In a hurry, he could only keep repeating the word "fat" with his mouth. But in her and Xiao Zi's eyes, he seems to have been shouting "Dad".
The door on the other side was shut, and she stood up and looked at Xiao Zimian face to face. She remembered the fathead fish in the shopping bag, quickly opened the bag and looked at it, thinking that she must not be suffocated, otherwise it will not be fresh.
Fathead? Could it be that what Xiaohai just shouted was not the word "Dad", but "fat"? She suddenly realized, suddenly grabbed Xiao Zi's hand, and asked nervously, "Did you say before that a chubby man in black clothes came to me?" ”
"yes, what's wrong?"
"What Xiaohai was going to tell us just now is that the man in black entered the house!"
This time it was Xiao Zi's turn to be shocked, she was about to scream loudly, Lu Wanting covered her mouth, and the two of them walked into the house again with their waists bent, picked up the two umbrellas hanging behind the door on tiptoe, put the metal umbrella handle forward, and scanned everything in the room vigilantly.
But except for the heartbeat of the two, the room was quiet as usual, they quietly turned into the kitchen again, and when passing by the dining table, she accidentally kicked the apple at the corner of the table, the apple rolled out and hit the wall, Xiaozi turned around and glared at her fiercely, put her index finger to her lips and asked her not to make a sound, she pouted the corners of her mouth like a child who made a mistake, and said "I'm sorry" silently.
The kitchen was empty, there was no one behind the door, they turned back again, and at the moment they turned around, they saw the opposite bathroom door, a fat man was lifting the lid of the washing machine, and took out a pair of black leather shoes from it, the man suddenly noticed something, quickly looked up, and saw them holding umbrellas
All three screamed "ahh
