Remember [Chinese Net] in one second to provide you with wonderful reading.

When Wang Meng walked up the stairs to the top floor platform, a man suddenly walked down from above.

"Miss, what are you looking for?" The man asked.

"My cat is gone."

"Oh, I saw a cat, it seems to have gone to the fifth floor." The man said, as if to prove that he wasn't just pointing the way, and the man said, "I saw it when I came up from the elevator." ”

Well, that's true, right? Wang Meng thanked her, turned to the stairs and walked down step by step, she didn't like the cold and cold jingling elevator, it always reminded her of the iron cage, it felt really bad.

This auspicious apartment is a well-known high-end apartment in Shanghai, or built by the British in the early years, with a total of seven floors, an elevator, running water and toilets, and the people who rent here are middle-class people with wealthy families. Obviously, the man who walked down the platform was also like this, because Wang Meng saw that the man was wearing a suit with good material and cut, like the work of the city's Red Gang tailors, and looked like a decent person. Wang Meng's father was in the cloth business, and she knew a little about fabrics and cutting.

Walking down the stairs to the fifth floor, Wang Meng called in a low voice: "Mimi, Mimi, where are you." ”

The door of a house opposite slammed open, and Mrs. Yang walked out: "Hey, Miss Wang, looking for a cat?" ”

The smell of pork ribs came from the half-open door of Yang's house, and Mrs. Yang seemed to say to herself: "The water is a little muddy today." ”

Wang Meng didn't find her cat on the fifth floor, and returned to the fourth floor disappointed, and as soon as she opened the door, her cat meowed and greeted her. Wang Meng was full of anger when she didn't enter the door, and she thought that she would beat Mimi if she caught her, but when the cat kept rubbing her trouser legs, she relented and bent down to pick up the cat: "Where did you go?" ”

Mimi meowed, and went to rub Wang Meng's face again, there seemed to be a flash of red light in front of her, Wang Meng reached out and pinched the cat's little face: "Oh my God, it's dirty, where did you get it from." ”

Thinking of the smell of meat from Mrs. Yang's house, Wang Meng thought that the cat must be drilling around, and I don't know whose balcony rubbed on the fresh meat bones that people bought.

Wang Meng took the cat to the bathroom to take a bath, and her mother said worriedly: "Today's water is a little mixed, and it seems that we have to find someone from the tiger stove to deliver water." ”

Mrs. Wang is fine, but she has a sensitive nerve, the sun is brighter, the water is more turbid, even the white rice is a little harder, she is irritable, she can't drink or swallow. "Oh, the glare of the sun makes me dizzy." She always said this, sometimes Wang Meng felt that her mother should be an English lady who came down from Austen, and her nerves were too fragile.

"Mother Chen, go to the tiger stove and ask for two buckets of water." Wang Meng didn't want her mother to be nagging, so she asked the maid to go to the tiger stove. Wang Meng said that he put a pool of water and wanted to put the cat in, but the cat didn't go in alive or dead, what's wrong? This cat used to be very fond of bathing. Wang Meng sighed, and could only wait for the tiger stove to deliver water.

The next night, when Mrs. Yang was ready to cook for herself, she turned on the faucet and found that the water was a little more turbid and smelly.

Mrs. Yang muttered dissatisfiedly: "I want to boil red bean syrup water to remove moisture, why is this water getting worse and worse." ”

The little lady who was picking beans on the side also said: "Do you want to go to the caretaker and tell me, it may have been raining a lot recently, and the water tank upstairs has seeped into the rain." ”

"Well, it's quite possible." Mrs. Yang thought for a while and said, "Rain water is rootless water, just muddy it, just boil it." ”

The red bean syrup this night was exceptionally delicious, and the whole family ate it cleanly.

Wang Meng walked up the stairs with the cat in her arms and saw Miss Li on the sixth floor walking downstairs angrily.

"Miss Li is going out."

Miss Li looked tired, and when she saw Wang Meng, she couldn't help complaining: "Hey, my little aunt is gone, and I still have to go out to eat, it's really troublesome, I have to go to the Chinese people tomorrow to ask." If it doesn't work, you have to change people, how can you run away without caring about it. ”

Miss Li is a fashionable independent woman, working in a foreign firm, she is over 30 years old and unmarried, and her life has been taken care of by a young aunt.

"I saw that there was a wonton stall at the intersection, Miss Li should not go too far, it was too late."

"Thank you Mengmeng, I'll just go eat a bowl of wonton stew."

At this time, I heard the elevator clang, and a middle-aged man came out with a burden and asked, "Where are 406 and 406?" "It turned out that the man from the tiger stove brought water again.

"Hey, why didn't you boil water?" Miss Li asked.

"My mother said that the water is a little muddy these days and I can't eat it, Miss Li, is this the case at your house?"

"I haven't noticed yet, if this is the case, it may be a problem with the upstairs water tank, and it is raining a lot these days, maybe the rainwater is leaking in."

There is a large water tank on the platform on the top of the seventh floor of this apartment, and every building eats the water from this tank, and when the water flow is low, there are water trucks that send water to the tank with long pipes and pumps, and if the lid is not tightly covered, it is very likely that rainwater will leak in.

"I'm going to talk to the administrator tomorrow, my mom is more serious." Wang Meng carried the cat into the door, and the workers of the tiger stove had already come out with their burdens.

Miss Li walked to the entrance of the alley, and sure enough, she saw a wonton stall.

She sat down and asked for a bowl of small wontons, and the stall owner put the wrapped wontons into the big iron pot, and the spoon scraped the bottom of the pot, and the steaming heat rose, and the shadow was enough.

"Hey, Miss Li, why did you come out so late."

A team of patrolling policemen walked over, led by Xiao Wu. "Hello, Officer Xiaowu." Miss Li stood up and said, "You still have to patrol at night, you guys are really hard." ”

"The little aunt at home doesn't know where to go, and I can't cook." When the wontons were served, Miss Li explained embarrassedly.

This Miss Li is a staff member of Dahua Foreign Bank, Xiao Wu has been to Dahua several times, and she is familiar with her.

It turned out that it was because Miss Li couldn't cook. Xiao Wu suddenly thought of the light cold, Miss Hong will definitely cook, he was frightened by the thought that suddenly came out of his mind, why do you have such an idea, what does it have to do with me whether Miss Hong can cook or not?

Xiao Wu wanted to divert his attention, so he asked, "Then does Miss Li want to report the case?" ”

"Report the crime?" Miss Li's eyes widened, "I didn't expect it, she is only seventeen years old this year, and she is still a child, I think it may be playful and ran home, right?" I'll go to her house tomorrow to look for it, if not, I'll have to trouble Officer Xiaowu, I will always get this month's salary back, and then the person ran away at the beginning of the month. Miss Li is really an independent woman, and the little maid at home ran away, and her first thought was how to try her best to recover her losses. Xiao Wu couldn't help but think that this was quite consistent with Ye Quan's thoughts, and he refused to give up his interests at any time.

Xiao Wu walked through a street with the police, and looked back, the seven-story auspicious apartment was very conspicuous in the night, there were some flying insects flying around the dim street lamp, and there was a black thing on the platform of the apartment, Xiao Wu knew that it was the water tank on the roof of the building.
