Chapter 271: The Deadly Tent (5)

As soon as these words came out, almost everyone in the living room, including Cao Xiaohui, was stunned, and they all looked at Hu Wanquan with an incredible look.

"Your Excellency, you... Are you mistaken? Hu Wanquan laughed dryly.

"What do you think?" , Nie Xiaohu sneered.

"You mean I stole the child? This... That's outrageous, isn't it? ”

Hu Wanquan said with an aggrieved face: "At that time, I was sending guests to the ferry, how could it be me?" ”

"When did you put your guests on the boat?"

"It's when Master Luo held the initiation ceremony in the ancestral hall."

"There are only two passenger boats a day at Jingren Ferry, one is a day and the other is a unitary time, you send guests on the boat at the same time, are you sending guests to swim?" , Nie Xiaohu asked with a smile.

"This...", Hu Wanquan was speechless.

"Since you didn't go to the ferry, where were you during this time?" , Nie Xiaohu then asked.

"I...", Hu Wanquan frowned and couldn't speak.

"You're in the mezzanine of the roof of the Luo family's ancestral hall, right?" , Nie Xiaohu smiled coldly.

"This must have been planned by you, because you had to repair the roof of the ancestral hall, so you had already placed a wooden ladder at the base of the wall against the wall of the ancestral hall, of course, this did not arouse anyone's suspicion.

This morning you left under the pretext of sending your guests to the ferry, but in fact you sneaked up to the ancestral hall, set up a wooden ladder up to the roof, climbed in through the window of the roof, and hid in the mezzanine, just above the last row of seats.

When we entered the ancestral hall, Yan Shasha happened to sit in the last row with the cradle, and she happened to be the only one in the last row.

The roof of the ancestral hall is made of long wooden planks, and you can easily remove a few pieces, and when the ancestors are read out, you hang down with a rope with a hook tied to the end, quietly hook the cradle, and after carrying the child out, you put in a bag of corn and a written ransom letter, and put the cradle down.

Since the child was asleep, he did not make any sound and was not woken up, in fact the child was not woken up. You then left the ancestral hall with the child, put the ladder back to its place, and sneaked back to the house, and after settling the child, you pretended to have just sent the guests back to Luo's house, is there anything wrong with me? ”

"Your Excellency, you must have misunderstood, if as you said, when he hoisted the cradle with a hook, how could I not see, don't forget that I am right next to the cradle!" , Yan Shasha hurriedly defended Hu Wanquan.

"Of course you saw it, and you helped hook the cradle because you were his accomplice!" , Nie Xiaohu smiled coldly.

"Sitting in the last row with the child, it happens to be directly below Hu Wanquan hidden in the mezzanine of the roof, you are the one who blocks the cradle with your body, and you are the one who provides the black wooden box, at first I was very puzzled, and asked why the kidnappers asked for the black box to put the golden arhat, and when you said that you happened to have a black wooden box, I was suspicious."

"My lord, you can really relate to it, if it was really done by our husband and wife, and we are both here now, how can we get the golden Arhat?" , Yan Shasha continued to ask rhetorically, with no fear on her face.

"Good question!"

Nie Xiaohu's index finger and middle finger of his right hand quickly clicked on his thigh a few times, and continued: "This is why you asked Luo Yuanwai to use a black wooden box to hold the golden Arhat, you have prepared two identical black wooden boxes in advance, one of which should be placed in the carriage of the carriage, and there may be heavy objects such as stones in it, so it will not arouse Luo Yuanwai's suspicion because of the weight.

When Hu Wanquan put the wooden box containing the golden arhat into the carriage, he had already dropped the wooden box, so you didn't need to go to the boat to pick up the box, because the golden arhat was already in your hands! Even if we later find out that the boxes on the ship are not filled with gold arhats, we will think that the kidnappers secretly transferred the bags, and no one will suspect that you are on your head, yes or no? ”

As soon as Nie Xiaohu's words landed, Yan Shasha and Hu Wanquan collapsed to the ground almost at the same time, both of them looking dead.

"Someone!" , Nie Xiaohu shouted.

"Tiger Head!" , Shi Yuning walked in from outside the door almost at the same time, holding a baby in her arms.

"This was found in Hu Wanquan's home!" , Shi Yuning said loudly.

"Kid! My baby! Sun screamed and pounced, taking the swaddling clothes from Shi Yuning's hands, due to the excessive force, the baby in the swaddling clothes was shaken, "Wow! He cried.

"Oh... Oh, don't cry, baby, mother is here", Sun slowly shook the swaddling clothes in his arms, his eyes full of maternal kindness.

"Let's go, let's go to the back hall, don't let the child be frightened!" , Liu glanced angrily at Yan Shasha and his wife, who were sitting on the ground, and walked to the inner hall with Sun in his arms, and Luo Zhigao also followed closely.

"Little stone, you go and search the carriage outside the courtyard, and find out the black wooden box with the golden arhat, there must be a mezzanine on the carriage!"

"Oh yes!" , Shi Yuning turned around and went out.

"Hu Wanquan, where is your cloth bag with repair tools?" , Nie Xiaohu stared at Hu Wanquan and asked.

"In... In Sasha's room," Hu Wanquan replied weakly.

"Little Maozi!"

"In!"

"Go get that sack!"

"Understood!"

In an instant, Mao Guangjian walked in with a cloth bag.

"Open it and pour it out!" , Nie Xiaohu commanded.

"Whoa!" With a bang, all the contents of the cloth bag were dumped on the floor of the living room, and everyone looked at it, and in addition to some small hammers, small saws and other tools, there was also a coiled rope, and a small hook was tied to the end of the rope.

Nie Xiaohu stood up, bent down to pick up the rope and looked at it, and then threw it in front of Hu Wanquan's eyes.

"Tiger Head, I've found it!" At this moment, Shi Yuning also walked in with a black wooden box.

The wooden box was opened, and four golden arhats wrapped in red satin appeared in front of everyone's eyes.

"Well, what else do you have to say?" , Nie Xiaohu asked with a smile.

"I... I plead guilty! Hu Wanquan lowered his head.

"That golden arhat is my family's thing, I just tried to find a way to get them back, why am I guilty?!" , Yan Shasha suddenly said indignantly, with a look of unwillingness.

"What? What did you say? This time it was Nie Xiaohu's turn to be puzzled.
