Chapter 5: The Terrible Man
For a while, I felt that this person who stole the jade pig dragon was too terrible.
He can steal the jade pig dragon from the house without knowing it, and then quietly put the jade pig dragon in front of me, which is enough to prove that this person is not simple.
I think this person should know our family very well, and he knows me very well, and this understanding has reached a certain level. It can even be said that there are some things that he understands and I don't. The Jade Pig Dragon is a good example, this person probably knew the importance of the Jade Pig Dragon for a long time, and I only found out today.
I don't know if he's alone, or if it's made up of a lot of people, but I'd rather think of him as a single person. Because it can be simpler to think in this way, at least thinking about the thinking of one person is much simpler than thinking about the thinking of a group of people.
Of course, I prefer that he did it alone, and if it were a lot of people doing it together, then I would be in big trouble.
I lay in bed and thought about it for a long time, and I didn't understand why this person did this.
I don't have a clue, although I know that there must be some meaning in this, otherwise no one would do it for no reason, but I can't think of it.
I thought, from beginning to end, it's all because of this jade pig dragon, could it be that I misunderstood, the real meaning is not that person's behavior, but in this jade pig dragon?
Holding the jade pig dragon, I looked left and right, and I didn't see anything unusual. Except for the fine workmanship, the rest are very ordinary, and I really can't see what other importance it has.
I was looking at the jade pig dragon in my hand, and my mother came over, she thought I had drunk too much, and came to see me. Seeing that I was fiddling with the jade pig dragon in my hand, he said: "Son, you really have to put this thing away, whether it is worth it or not, my mother doesn't know, but this is your grandmother's heart." When you were young, your grandmother gave it to your dad, but your grandmother never said that it was for your dad, only that it was for you. And your grandmother was quite mysterious at the time, and your aunt and your second uncle didn't know that there was such a thing. ”
"Isn't it! Even the eldest aunt and second uncle didn't know there was such a thing. I was surprised.
Mom sighed, and then said: "Before, your father and I didn't understand, thinking that your grandmother was playing tricks and deliberately pretending to be very mysterious. But after your grandmother died, your mother understood, your grandmother was afraid that your aunt and your second uncle would fight, you look at your aunt and your second uncle, because the old house is still in a lawsuit, and your sisters and brothers will make enemies for that bit of broken family property. ”
"Mom, according to what you say, no one knows about my grandmother giving me Jade Pig Dragon except you and my father?"
"That's right! Since your grandmother said that this thing is an heirloom of their family, your father has attached great importance to it, not to mention telling others, even if I want to take it out and take a look, your father won't let me. ”
"Mom, when was the last time you saw this jade pig dragon?"
My mother thought for a while before replying: "It's been a long time, it seems that it was last year's Spring Festival dusting, I should have cleaned up the cabinet before I took a look." ”
After a brief conversation with my mother, I broke her up and said that I was tired and needed a nap.
After my mother left, I was thinking about what my mother said just now, if it was according to what my mother said, then I felt even more terrible that the person who stole the jade pig dragon was terrible. The heart said, grandma's things, even my aunt and second uncle don't know, but the person who stole the jade pig dragon knows, what is the situation?
In an instant, I was lost in endless thoughts.
I thought to myself, I only know about this secret guard, how did this person know? Mom and Dad are not going to talk to others. My mother herself is a tight-lipped person, not to mention that it is a secret, even a little thing in the family, she will not tell outsiders. Dad is even more impossible, that is an old money fan, knowing that this is grandma's heirloom, and he is not at ease when he hides it, how dare he go out and talk nonsense. Although I knew it couldn't be grandma's heirloom, my dad didn't know it, and he was convinced.
On the surface, it seems that there are only three people who know this secret, my father and my grandmother, and the suspicion of the father and my mother leaking the secret can be ruled out, leaving the grandmother with suspicion. But my grandmother passed away a few years ago, and I can't find out if I want to investigate, so I can't go to the cemetery to dig my grandmother out, and then ask her old man to explain it to me.
Thinking about it, there are only two possibilities, either grandma sued this person a long time ago, or this person checked our family to the bottom, and maybe even knew our family's bank password.
Of these two possibilities, I prefer to accept the first one, because the first one is not necessarily a bad thing for me. At least I can still know that this person is someone my grandmother once trusted, otherwise I wouldn't have told him about it. If it's really someone my grandmother trusts, maybe it's something my grandmother designed in advance, maybe it's for this person to remind me of something, or for me to do something. Anyway, if it's someone my grandmother trusts, I don't have to worry about it.
Of course, if it's the second possibility, I'll have to be more careful, because no one in this world will study you for no reason. The fact that he was able to study our family so thoroughly proves that he has some intentions. I don't know what the attempt was, but I don't think it's going to be a good thing.
In fact, after thinking about it for so long, I already have the answer in my heart, but I don't want to accept this answer. By all indications, this man could not have been sent by his grandmother. If it was sent by his grandmother, he didn't have to be like this, he could have come to me with the jade pig dragon, and then just tell me something, there was no need to make such a big fuss.
After a moment of thought and analysis, I finally chose the fact that I was unwilling to accept.
It seems that this person has been studying me or our family for more than a day or two, and it may have to be counted in years. I don't know if he's a friend or an adversary, but I think it's an adversary, because no one thinks that much about a friend.
For me, he is an invisible opponent, I am in the light and he is in the shadows. He can observe me, but I can't observe him, and I can even say that we are walking on the road and I see him, but I don't know it's him.
To be honest, I was truly in awe when I met such an opponent. I don't want to be an enemy of that at all, because you don't know when he's going to show up, how he's going to show up, and you don't know what he's thinking. I even suspect that he knows me better than I do, and that there are things that I may have forgotten and that he remembers.
Just like this jade pig dragon, I'm afraid my grandmother didn't know that I saw it when I stole the money, but this man did, and he was sure that I would remember this jade pig dragon, and I found that he was like a roundworm in my stomach, so understanding me.
Thinking about it, my scalp is numb, and this series of unknowns makes my brain almost explode. I kept reminding myself that I couldn't think about it anymore, it would only lead me to think endlessly, and I was just wasting my time. If I want to change my strategy, I have to change my strategy.
Since I don't know him and can't take the initiative to find him, I can only defend well and wait for him to come to me.
I stayed at home for one night and the next day I drove to the company. This night, I didn't sleep well, I was in a state of cranky thoughts, although I was constantly reminding myself not to think about it, but no matter how I reminded it, it was useless, I couldn't control it at all, and it was impossible not to think about it.
I thought of countless methods, but in the end I found that they were useless, and the simplest and most effective way is only one, which is to wait, wait for this person to appear.
After arriving at the company, I had a small meeting with several vice presidents and talked about the reasons why I didn't come to the company during this time. Of course, I didn't say that it was because of Xiaoba, and I didn't say that I went to Thailand, but I just made up a noble reason, but what I said was quite realistic, and I had a little bit of faith after saying it.
After looking at the account in the company for a long time, my eyes hurt when I saw it. To be honest, I hate to read accounts, this game should be too annoying, in and out of the money, looking at it is unappetizing.
When I turned to the last page of the ledger, I saw the company's latest expenditure, which said that the company spent tens of thousands of yuan to replace a set of advanced monitoring equipment.
When I saw this account, I was really enlightened, and I said, why didn't I think of it.
I suddenly had the idea of installing a surveillance camera in my brother's house. In this way, as long as that person goes to the elder brother's house again, I can find him through guò surveillance.
I'm like that, as long as I think about it, I do it, but I didn't look for the unit that installed the monitoring for the company, but called a friend in Shijiazhuang. That's what he did, he specially installed monitoring for the bank, not because he installed it well, I looked for him, but now in Chengde, there are few people I can trust, so I have to be cautious, I'd rather spend more money to get him from out of town, rather than use people from Chengde.
I talked to my friend on the phone, and he said that he would come in 10 days, and he still had work in his hands. I had all the good things to say, and he agreed to come and install it for me in three days.
To cut a long story short, three days later, my friend came.
This person is okay, he didn't hack me, and the prices quoted are all normal prices on the market. All the equipment was pulled from Shijiazhuang, and the installer was also brought by him from Shijiazhuang, so he helped me install the monitoring, and I was very relieved.
It took most of the day to install the monitoring inside and outside the house, and finally my friend also built one for me to install on the exterior wall, and I didn't think much about it, so I agreed. Actually, I know, this guy is kind of a salesman to me. Originally, there was already one installed at the gate, and there was no need to install another one, but since he had already said it, I didn't refute his face, thinking, it was just to spend an extra thousand eight hundred yuan, and the flower would be spent, after all, people came all the way to help, so I had to give some face.
However, when installing the exterior wall surveillance, I heard a conversation between the two installation workers, saying that the camera of the supermarket diagonally opposite was high, and it seemed that the two of them were very interested in the supermarket monitoring and talked for a while.
I didn't care at the time, because it wasn't my business. But after my friend left, he called me again and told me about it. After listening to him, I understood why the two installers cared so much about the supermarket's surveillance.
