After arranging the trap on the mountain, Jiang Xiaoqing carried the bamboo basket down the mountain and went home.

On the way back, she saw a few children of seven or eight years old, holding rice balls in their hands, eating and laughing and playing at the end of the village.

Jiang Xiaoqing paused, his eyes rolled, and he thought of one thing.

She immediately stepped forward and spoke to the children: "What are you playing?" ”

"Ahh It's a little light sister! ”

These children all know Jiang Xiaoqing, "Sister Xiaoqing is good!" ”

Jiang Xiaoqing is a well-known good-natured big sister in their circle, so they all like to be close to Jiang Xiaoqing.

"Good."

Jiang Xiaoqing touched their heads and said, "Do you want to eat sugar?" My sister just bought peanut candy from the county seat today, can I get some for you? ”

"Good!"

The little ones nodded excitedly.

Peanut candy!

Sweet!

Little Sister is so nice!

Soon, Jiang Xiaoqing brought them some peanut candy and taught them to draw grids on the ground and play games.

A group of children were so happy at the end of the village that they forgot to go home.

……

After Jiang Xiaoqing returned home, he ordered himself a bowl of tomato and egg noodles, and after eating, he began to pack up the clothes and vegetables he bought.

As soon as she had cleared up her home, she heard a knock on the door outside, and it was someone from the Zheng Arsenal who brought her a box.

Jiang Xiaoqing took the box, and gave the worker some twist flowers, and dragged the box and ribbon of the snakeskin bag into the hall.

She picked up the two black tote bags and began to count the jewelry, packing them into boxes.

I have to say that the quality of workmanship in the Zhengbei Factory is very good.

Although the material of these jewelry is average, the details are polished well, there is no roughness, and with the ingenious design, it looks beautiful.

Jiang Xiaoqing saw her own design drawings and transformed jewelry, and she was in a particularly good mood.

An hour later.

"Huh?"

Jiang Xiaoqing reached out and picked up an empty box, slightly stunned.

She rummaged through two tote bags, but there was nothing in them.

"Uncle Li counted too many boxes for me?"

Jiang Xiao pinched the packaging box lightly, but there was something strange in his heart.

She immediately counted the boxes next to her.

"One, two...... Two hundred and thirty-nine. ”

Jiang Xiao counted twice, and the boxes containing jewelry were only two hundred and thirty-nine.

And also......

"Two hundred and forty."

Jiang Xiaoqing looked at the empty box in his hand and narrowed his eyes.

One less.

Jiang Xiaoqing looked at it carefully, and the one that was missing was a necklace with a constellation ring.

That necklace is the necklace she showed Meng Zhengbing before, using the twelve constellations as the main concept.

The one with the less, is Cancer.

"Before I came, Uncle Li also specially helped me count this batch of jewelry, he is calm and careful, if this batch of jewelry is really missing a necklace, or he has seen the design drawing, he will definitely find it!"

Jiang Xiaoqing didn't suspect anyone indiscriminately, but began to reason carefully, "Then, that necklace must have been taken by someone on the way from the factory to Uncle Li's office." ”

In this process, there are two people who are the most suspicious!

One was the worker who was carrying a handbag and was the first to arrive.

Another......

It's Cao Jianjun!

Jiang Xiaoqing frowned, carefully recalling what Cao Jianjun had done after he came in.

Because it was the morning, she remembered it very clearly.

After Cao Jianjun put down the handbag, he put his hand into his pocket......

Jiang Xiao paused lightly, and suddenly remembered a detail-

Cao Jianjun asked her if she wanted to count this batch of jewelry.

Although she wasn't looking at Cao Jianjun at the time, she caught a glimpse of Cao Jianjun's hand in her pocket out of the corner of her eye, and moved.

Could it be that —

"The lost necklace was hidden in his pocket by Cao Jianjun at that time?!"
