Chapter 309: The Crack in the Pen (6)
"As soon as I went out, I saw a man and a woman coming out of the old house, and the man was still holding an object in his hand, and before I could go forward, the two of them left in a hurry, and I wondered if I had recruited a thief. So he quietly followed. ”
"Did you follow a calligraphy and painting shop?"
"Exactly! I saw the man take the key and open the door of a calligraphy shop, and I knew that they lived there, so I went back and reported the matter to my master. ”
"Hmm", Nie Xiaohu nodded slightly, and then asked, "Old man, are there any treasures in that old house?" ”
"What baby?" , Tianfu smiled and waved his hand and said, "It's all some rags, the house has been abandoned for more than 20 years, and in the first few years, I thought I could have anything valuable, so I went in and rummaged through, there was nothing, it had been emptied a long time ago, and now it is all some rags that no one wants!" ”
"Alright, old man, you can go out!" , Nie Xiaohu smiled and waved his hand.
The next to come in was the middle-aged couple, who sat side by side opposite Nie Xiaohu, looking a little nervous.
"Name," Nie Xiaohu asked.
"My lord, the villain's name is Xia Yuze, this is my lady Jiang's", the man said.
"Do you know Wei Zhijie?"
"Recognize! We've been friends for years! Xia Yuze hurriedly nodded in response.
"Last night, his wife Liao hanged herself in the bedroom at home, do you know about this?"
"Know! Know! Brother Wei has already told me! ”
Xia Yuze nodded again and again, then sighed again and said, "Alas! I knew this was the case, I shouldn't have drunk so much wine with Brother Wei yesterday, causing him to not return all night, if it weren't for that, his wife wouldn't have ......."
"When did Wei Zhijie arrive at your house yesterday?"
"Before the afternoon, we had already made an appointment."
"Has he been out of the house until this morning?"
"Didn't you?"
Xia Yuze frowned slightly and shook his head gently, "The two of us have been drinking in the living room, and then we both got drunk, so we slept together and slept until this morning." ”
"You sleep in the same bed?"
"Uh... Yes, I was drunk and dizzy at the time, where can I still manage so much, besides, my family is not rich, there is no extra room for him to live in", Xia Yuze seemed a little embarrassed.
"Jiang, is that true?" , Nie Xiaohu turned to look at Jiang.
"Ang, yes, yes, both of them were drunk, and they fell asleep on the bed, and they couldn't pull it up, and they slept until this morning," Jiang said busily, but his eyes were sparkling and erratic.
Looking at Jiang's appearance, Nie Xiaohu's brows were furrowed, and after thinking for a while, he said, "In this way, I'll call Wei Zhijie in, listen to what he said, and see if there is any discrepancy in what you say." ”
"No problem, no problem", Xia Yuze nodded again.
After Wei Zhijie came in, he first saluted Nie Xiaohu, and then said hello to Xia Yuze and his wife, and stood aside.
"Wei Zhijie, tell me what happened during the period from yesterday to this morning!" , Nie Xiaohu said.
"Yes, my lord", Wei Zhijie bowed, and then told the matter again, which was basically the same as what Xia Yuze said, and there was no deviation.
"That's the thing, I woke up once in the middle of the night, because I felt a little cold under my body, and when I opened my eyes, it turned out to be Brother Xia's ......", as he spoke, Wei Zhijie actually covered his mouth and laughed, while Xia Yuze had an unnatural face, and his eyes were full of complaints.
"What's wrong with him?" , Nie Xiaohu asked.
"No... It's nothing", Wei Zhijie realized that he had slipped his mouth, and quickly shook his head and said.
"Say!" , Nie Xiaohu glared at him and slapped the table, and the three of them were startled.
"I say! I say! ”
Wei Zhijie hurriedly said: "It turned out to be Brother Xia... He wetted the bed", the expression on Wei Zhijie's face was extremely strange, as if he was holding back something.
"Bedwetting?" , Nie Xiaohu pursed his mouth and couldn't help laughing.
"Poof!" With a sound, Cao Xiaohui next to her covered her lips with the back of her hand, and then pretended to cough twice, and her face returned to its normal color.
Looking at Xia Yuze again, his face was as red as pig liver, and Jiang Shi also looked at Wei Zhijie with complaining eyes.
"When was that?" , Nie Xiaohu asked with a smile.
"At that time, I heard the bang ringing outside," Wei Zhijie replied.
Seeing the expressions on everyone's faces, Xia Yuze at this time couldn't hold his breath anymore, suddenly stood up, pointed at Wei Zhijie with his finger and said loudly: "Yes!" I have a problem with enuresis at night, but you are not much better, don't you often steal? I'm not embarrassed to talk about you, but you talk about me! ”
"Where did I have a petty theft, didn't I know that the old mansion belonged to the Ji family?" , Wei Zhijie hurriedly retorted.
"I didn't mean that!" , Xia Yuze waved his sleeves.
"Not? So what do you mean? Wei Zhijie asked curiously.
"Good! Now that it's all here, I can't control so much! ”
Xia Yuze gritted his teeth, as if he had made a lot of determination, and said, "You say, did you steal one of my wolf pen?" ”
"Stealing your wolf pen, this... Where does this start? Wei Zhijie's eyes were curious, and he seemed to be a little confused.
"You're still pretending to be confused with me! My wolf's pen was given to me by my uncle, and although it was not very expensive, it was also my beloved thing, but unfortunately last year I used it to write a letter, and accidentally dropped it on the ground, and the tip of the pen was broken twice.
I was so distressed that I hung the pen on the pen holder and never used it again, and after a long time, I almost forgot about it.
But just last month, on the day I visited your house, I found a wolf pen on the table in your study, which looked very much like mine, so I looked at it secretly, and found that there were two cracks on the tip of the pen, and the cracks were exactly the same as mine, and I suspected that it was mine.
When I got home, I searched for a long time, but I couldn't find my wolf pen, you said, who else would it be if you didn't steal it? ”
Xia Yuze angrily pointed at Wei Zhijie and asked.
"This?" , Wei Zhijie was speechless for a while, speechless.
"Oops! Forget it, isn't it just a pen, it's still broken, and it's not valuable, just take it, look at your stinginess, as for it, you two have such a good relationship! Jiang Shi persuaded on the side.
"It's not that I feel sorry for that pen, it's Brother Wei who said me first, I'm just paying homage to him!" , Xia Yuze said angrily.
"Watch your eyes!" , Jiang Shi gave him a blank look.
