Chapter 52: A burglar in the house
Lin Miaoyin's car was an Accord, parked on the side of the road downstairs at my house.
On the balcony above, Zhu'er and Xiao Hongye were watching below.
I got into the co-pilot.
Lin Miaoyin put her hands on the steering wheel, glanced at me, and then looked back at the empty and deserted road in front of her, without saying a word.
Her eyes were bloodshot and she looked a little haggard, and it was clear that she hadn't slept at all since yesterday.
"What are you looking for me?" I asked her.
Lin Miaoyin still didn't speak, and suddenly took out a box of cigarettes from the car door, took out a box of cigarettes herself, and then threw the cigarette case to me.
The cigarette was long, thin and minty, and I didn't like to smoke it, so I put the cigarette case on the front table.
Lin Miaoyin lit the cigarette and took a deep breath, and the car was suddenly filled with a fresh fragrance.
When I saw that she was preoccupied, I was very interested in not asking questions. Anyway, since she called me out, she will say it sooner or later. A few days ago, she stopped talking, and I knew there would be today, but I didn't know it would come so soon.
What is so hard to say?
Lin Miaoyin finally finished a cigarette and threw the cigarette butt out the window.
After being silent for so long, she finally spoke: "Forget it, you go back." ”
I was a little surprised.
Lin Miaoyin's personality is hearty and bright, it shouldn't be like this, and this is not the first time.
"Get out of the car." Lin Miaoyin said again.
"What you're going to say isn't ......?"
I had just said a few words, when I suddenly heard Zhu'er shouting from the balcony upstairs: "Master, a thief has come in the house!" ”
I poked my head out of the window and shouted angrily, "You won't catch a thief when he comes in?!" ”
Zhu'er was embarrassed and said, "Zhu'er...... There's nothing Pearl can do. ”
Only then did I remember that Zhu'er, a thousand-year-old ghost, has nothing to do with ordinary living people, unless it is directly on his body, but that will leave sequelae, and I have expressly forbidden her.
"A thief?!" Lin Miaoyin actually came to his senses all of a sudden, "Go, catch him and beat him up!" ”
Saying that, she actually got out of the car first.
I had to get out of the car with me.
But by the time we ran all the way back to my house, the thief was gone.
The house was turned into a mess.
All the cabinets were opened, the quilts were thrown on the floor, the covers were rolled up, and even the tatami drawers were pulled out.
All kinds of books, clothes, and bits and bits were thrown to the ground.
Strangely, my little safe is still in the closet, and it hasn't even changed its location.
In the bedroom, the laptop next to the bed is still there.
"Do you have a lot of valuable things hidden in your house?" Lin Miaoyin looked at the chaos in the room and said.
I said, "The first thing in my family is myself." ”
"However, the thief was obviously looking for something," Lin Miaoyin said, "the laptop was not taken, and the safe was not wanted, what was he looking for?" ”
Actually, I've been thinking about this question since the beginning.
Ordinary people like us, what can be valuable at home? Of course, there will be no cash at home. Burglary doesn't do you any good at all, so why take such a risk?
The thief must have climbed in through the open window of the second bedroom. Although it is relatively easy to get in from here, it also requires a good reach.
"What does that thief look like?" I asked the beads and the little autumn leaves that were following behind.
"Who knows?" "That person is exactly like those night walkers on TV, with black clothes, black pants, a black cloth on his face, and a black towel wrapped around his head. Anyway, I can't even see a single hair. ”
Zhu'er immediately echoed beside her and said, "Yes, yes, that person moves flexibly, stretches out his hands vigorously, and his martial arts are not bad." And I tried to scare him away, but he wasn't afraid. ”
"How did you scare him?" I asked strangely.
"Don't you know how scary ghosts are?" Little Momiji pouted.
Lin Miaoyin didn't paint the soil of the old grave at this time, and she couldn't see the beads, so when she heard me talking alone, she stretched out her hand to me: "The old grave soil, give me a little." ”
Before I could answer the question, I heard someone ring the doorbell.
I slapped Lin Miaoyin's hand away, walked out of the second bedroom and opened the door.
I never expected that this time it would be Liu Blind.
My first reaction was, "You're alone? How did you get here? ”
Yes, he's a blind man, how did he come all the way to find him? And he didn't even take a single crutch.
Liu Blind said lightly: "People call me Liu Blind, but did I tell you that I am really a blind man?" ”
As he spoke, his eyes suddenly rolled down.
The eyes, which were originally gray and like glass beads, suddenly turned out a pair of normal eyes.
Not only is it normal, but it is also very bright and bright.
My day, and this kind of operation?
I was so surprised that I opened my mouth and couldn't close it.
"The fortune teller is a blind man, more mysterious, and more credible."
Liu Blind said as he walked inside.
"What? A thief in your house? Wonderful news? Why are you here? You two ......."
"Uncle Liu, why are you here too?"
Wonderful news? Uncle Liu? The relationship between the two of them is really extraordinary.
"My old man came to see this little friend." Blind Liu said while walking around the house, "Last time he caught ghosts with great fanfare, causing a storm in the city, I came to see if he died, has he been eaten by evil ghosts?" ”
I was still standing by the door, stupidly not reacting.
Zhu'er walked up to me and whispered to me, "Master, this person is the thief just now!" ”
I looked at her and asked her how she knew.
Zhu'er looked at Liu Blind and said, "I can smell it." The aura on his body is exactly the same as the thief just now! ”
Little Momiji also came over and said, "The more I look at him, the more I look like him." I bet you've just changed his clothes outside, and the black clothes he was wearing are still hidden somewhere outside. ”
Zhu'er said: "This guy has gone and returned, and he must have not found what he wanted. ”
"Hmm!" Xiao Momiji immediately nodded in agreement, "He must have some conspiracy again." He definitely didn't give up, he still wanted to find something like that. ”
These two guys are actually speaking in unison, you say everything to me, and they cooperate like two partners who have been talking cross talk for many years.
However, I believe that even personally.
At this time, I saw the "Night Returning Man's Codex" that I was still at the end of the sofa, so I walked over and picked up the book and asked, "By the way, take a look, is it this book that you asked Li Xiaogang to hand over to me?" ”
The blind man looked back and said, "Yes, this is it." As he spoke, he looked straight into the bedroom and the second bedroom.
Lin Miaoyin was originally standing at the door of the second bedroom, and when she saw Liu Blind looking inside, she took a few steps to the side.
Looking at his nonchalant look, I knew he wasn't looking for this book.
But what else is there in my house that can only be looked at by others, especially a master like him?
"Are you looking for something?" I sat down on the couch and asked bluntly, "Do you want me to help?" ”
"Hehe, of course not." Blind Liu smiled dryly, "Although you are small here, it is quite comfortable to live in." Did you lose anything? ”
While pumping water to make tea, I said lightly: "I lost two things, but it is not an important thing." ”
Blind Liu's face suddenly changed, and he hurriedly asked, "Is that the wooden sword and the box?" ”
Lin Miaoyin asked with a blank face: "What wooden sword?" What box? ”
Blind Liu said, "It's the wooden sword and the box he brought back last time when you went to dig the soil of the old grave. When he caught the ghost that night, he was still holding the wooden sword and pretending. ”
I said casually
"That wooden sword is no different from the wooden sword we played with when we were kids, it doesn't use anything. And that ghost box, I didn't open it by all means. Forget it, if you lose it, you lose it, there's no need to be sorry at all. ”
"You know!" Liu's blind face was angry, and the green tendons on his forehead came out, "Do you know that that wooden sword is the Fengtian sword written in this book?!" ”
