Chapter Fifty-Eight: Stealing the Overcoat
The boss has been silent, the boss has not spoken, and no matter how bold Niu Fat is, he will not dare to come down.
"No, our business is too dangerous for you to do." The boss flatly refused.
He Yi was at the door, relying on blocking the door, "That's not necessarily, the danger is based on defenselessness." ”
The boss's gaze shifted from the computer to He Yi, and hooked the corners of his mouth, "That's because you haven't encountered real danger yet." The kid listened to the persuasion, this matter is not something you can get involved in, so go back quickly while you are not deep now. "Listening to the boss's meaning, I always feel a bit like unloading the mill and killing the donkey.
I have no intention of catching a glimpse of He Yi looking at us wrongly, what does it mean for a detective to have a strange look at you? Smell a rat.
"Okay, I'll investigate mine, and you investigate yours, and don't mix with each other." He Yi looked at the bed, "Fatty, master, I'm going to take you in for one night, what do you think?" ”
Niu Fat wanted to return his mouth, but he was really nervous to see the place, and he didn't let go of his mouth, so he still followed.
Seeing the two of them go to another cubicle with their mouths talking, I looked back and was puzzled by what the boss did, "Boss, why don't you let him investigate with us?" One more person, one more effort. ”
The Boss took his hand off the mouse and looked at me, I couldn't read any useful information in his eyes. "It's just a hairy boy, thinking that he is a detective after solving a few cases, and not only is it not good to follow us, but it may also be bad. We don't know much about him and don't know what his purpose is. Ma Dong, you'd better get rid of the idea that the whole world is a good person. ”
I touched my head, looked at the picture on the boss's computer, and wanted to laugh for a while, the boss opened a game web page, and the level was not low, to my surprise, the boss is such a rigid person who will also play games.
"Boss, aren't you sleeping?" I asked.
The boss glanced at me out of the corner of his eye, "You sleep, go out at night." ”
"What are you going for?"
"You don't need to know." One sentence choked me to death, what I don't need to know, according to the labor law, Lao Tzu has the right to know. But I didn't even fart.
Lying on the bed, the noise around makes people can't calm down, even if they are asleep, this Internet café is in their dreams. I don't know what game makes the young man outside so enthusiastic, especially a young man, who has been a child, and his voice is getting louder and louder every time.
I ate a bowl of instant noodles at noon and stayed until 4 p.m., yawning and sleeping, until my boss told me to go out to eat. As soon as I stood up, I heard the voices outside the cubicle, which couldn't be more familiar.
"Boy, fight, the monster is out again, this guy is a good thing." I think with my toes that this is a fat cow's throat, and there are only four people who speak Mandarin here, and the resolution is 100%.
Out of curiosity, I walked out of the cubicle and saw Niu Pang and several elementary school students surrounding a twelve or thirteen-year-old child, who was swearing in front of the computer and bursting into foul language from time to time. When I asked Niu Fat to leave, several elementary school students also patted your fat shoulder and said something to make me spray rice, "Brother Niu, if you have anything to do with me in the future, don't dare to say anything else, just in this town, there are few people who don't know my name." After saying that, Niu Fat flattered a few words very flatteringly.
I went out and found a breakfast shop, had some food, the house number was a breakfast shop, lunch and dinner were sold, and the target group was the group of elementary school students in the Internet café.
The three of them ate halfway through the meal, and saw a figure who was underbeaten, and Niu Fat complained that this person was sloppy all the way. The vegetable leaves in the instant noodle seasoning package are still hanging on the corners of the mouth, the three of us have a tacit understanding that he is not called He Yi, he doesn't seem to see us, and finds a position by the door with his back to us to eat, at first glance, sloppy and pitiful.
The elementary school students in the restaurant sat at a table in twos and threes, and they didn't care whether they knew each other or not, and they sat down when they found it.
"When do you think this day will end?" The voice came from an old woman next to us, who was the owner of the little shop, and she was the only one in the shop.
"It's dark, I'm afraid it's going to rain." The boss sat on a chair and said something that he couldn't go to the village and couldn't go to the store.
The old woman looked at us, not curious about the three of us outsiders, and smiled bitterly, her wrinkles deepened, "Here you are again, see if you can find out some spearheads." There was no sense of trust in his voice.
The boss didn't answer and ate with his head down. I sat in my chair, hungry, but not at all, a little uncomfortable. After dinner, I walked around the streets roughly, the sun was half the hill, very few people appeared on the streets, and the telephone poles on the streets were plastered with warnings of missing people. It was completely dark, and there was no one to see on the street. The biggest feeling I have here is that the temperature is unpredictable, and when it gets dark, the temperature drops, and the wind blows. The clothes we wore were useless, and the cold air could drill into it vigorously.
"Boss, how can this temperature change if it is said to change, if it goes on like this, we will definitely not be able to withstand it." Niu Fat asked this question, trembling up and down, and his feet kept stomping.
The boss looked at me, "Is it cold?" "Ask me as if you can't feel the cold.
I tightened my clothes, hugged my hands in front of my chest, and did a tap dance with my feet, like Niu Fat, "It's cold, even gasping for breath is cold." "Outsiders who are not used to this kind of weather can't stand it, their whole body is cold, and their fingers can't be straightened. In addition, the lizard keeps burrowing in its pockets, the soul of the lizard is ghostly, and the body is indeed flesh and blood. It was itchy, but it was cold and I didn't want to reach for it.
"Boss, there seems to be a person in front of us?" Niu Fat exclaimed.
Looking around, there is indeed a figure in front of us, the distance is very far, I can't tell the difference between men and women, sneaking in the corner of the wall, this person is well hidden, or if you don't look carefully, you really can't find the existence of this person.
Niu Pang looked around, his eyes fixed on a slender stick, shook it, he felt very satisfied, and cautiously looked at the sneaky person in the corner, hiding under the eaves on both sides of the road and slowly approaching the person. I followed the cow, holding a hoe in my hand that I had picked up from someone's door, and I was thinking about a two-pronged attack on the thief.
The thief was probably too focused on his target, and we didn't pay attention to the sound we made as we walked behind him, and the three of us stood behind the thief, and the thief didn't notice it at all. Squatting in the corner in a military coat, he kept looking ahead, but there was nothing in front of him.
Niu Fat freed up one hand, grabbed the back of the thief's neck, grabbed the thief like a chicken, the thief turned his head in surprise and saw us, his mouth did not make any sound, and I was stunned, this person is He Yi. When I recognized He Yi's surprise, He Yi immediately reacted, put his index finger to his lips, and whispered, "Don't make a sound, we are all peers, don't start." ”
"It's not easy to distinguish between peers and accomplices, what are you doing here?" Influenced by He Yi, my voice lowered my voice by an octave.
He Yi didn't care about the dirt, sat on the ground with his buttocks, and wrapped the military coat on his body. "I said could I join you?" He Yi looked at the boss with hopeful eyes.
The direction that the boss looked at was not He Yi, but the direction He Yi looked at before. "Tell me about it." Neither agree nor refuse.
He Yi, who didn't hear an affirmative answer, sat on the ground and thought about it, and sighed, "Forget it, just say it, I can't find out anyway." He Yi pointed to a distant door not far ahead, "Have you seen that door?" I've been here for a month, and I haven't found anything, and I suspect the family, but there's not much hope. ”
"Hurry up, the person you're waiting for is coming out soon." The boss reminded He Yi.
He Yi subconsciously glanced at the door. "This is the back door of the small restaurant where we ate just now."
"Did you see us at dinner?" Niu Fat interjected and asked.
"Nonsense, there are only a few tables in total, and you who look fine-skinned and tender-skinned can even be seen by the blind." He Yi's nonsense stopped, "What I'm telling you is that there are five people in this family, the old two, a son, a daughter-in-law, and a grandson. The son's family lives in the corner not far in front, and the old couple lives here, very close, but the strange thing is that the two families never interact. Didn't you see this old man when you were eating? In fact, I always thought that there was only one old lady in this family, but later when I checked the household registration, I found out that he had a son and a wife. The son never walked around with the old couple, and even the locals didn't know that the old couple was related to the family around the corner in front of him. Seven days ago, I didn't find anything, and I was about to go back to the Internet café, and I saw the old lady pulling a farm cart from here, and you should have found it when you came over, and people here basically don't come out at night. But this thing is strange, the old lady did not come back one night, and the next night a man disappeared. I was like today to see what the hell was going on. ”
"An old lady, what can she do?" Niu Fat said disapprerovingly.
He Yi sighed, "A dead horse is a live horse doctor, the key is that there are no clues at all now, do you think I stayed here for a month at public expense?" Lao Tzu can't pay the errand, so he has to pay for it himself. He Yi said as he opened Niu Fat's backpack, took out a bag of compressed biscuits from it, pouted, and looked dissatisfied, but still opened the package.
"Boss, are you a little eyebrow-raising?" I asked the boss next to me, who had not spoken.
"Nope."
He Yi took a bite of a biscuit, "It's not as simple as you think, this is just a possibility, in the eyes of the detective, you can't let go of a little clue, even if it doesn't exist in your thinking, it's also a possibility." ”
"You're Conan who's seen too much, find me two brothers two clothes." The boss interrupted He Yi.
He Yi held the biscuit in one hand, and looked embarrassed when he heard the boss's words, "Where to find it on this big night." ”
"You don't want to solve the case?" The boss said this very simply, allowing He Yi to join us.
He Yi stuffed the remaining biscuits into his coat, stood up, and clapped his hands, "That's right, there is no conflict of interest, no conflict." He beckoned to me, "Let's go, the fat man is too fat to get in." ”
Niu Pang glanced at He Yi, his eyes were strange, full of distrust. "You're not going to kidnap missing people, are you?"
"If you don't go, you'll freeze." He Yi put down a sentence and turned around and walked away.
Follow He Yi into a small alley, in front of a small intersection, He Yi looked around, confirmed that there was no one, and cautiously ran to a door, the sign on it was still wood-engraved 'Lao Li Tailor Shop', He Yi stood in front of the door and took out a few needles from his pocket, held one in his mouth, put the needle in his hand into the keyhole in front of the door and poked it. Due to the old style of the lock, I heard a 'pop' sound in less than half a minute, He Yi flashed into the tailor's shop, looked inside to confirm the safety, and beckoned me to go inside, I don't know what high-end lighting equipment He Yi used, and the light illuminated was only the size of a palm.
"You're a thief." I warned.
He Yi didn't care what I said at all, walked to the counter and rummaged for a while, muttering in a low voice, "Why can't I find the size of the fat man, I saw it two days ago." ”
It sounds like a veteran who comes in and out of here a lot. I tilted my head and glanced at it, almost scared to death, and I was narrating a mannequin with a military coat draped over it, which was comparable to Niu Fat. "Ho Yi."
"What? If you have a conscience, put the money on the counter. He Yi didn't raise his head to look for clothes at the counter.
"It's quite appropriate for Niu Fat to wear this dress." I said.
He Yi raised his head at this time, saw the clothes on the mannequin next to me, and showed a smiling face, "I just said, no one can wear such a large size of clothes, don't doubt the detective's brain." As he spoke, he walked up to me, took down the mannequin's coat, and stuffed it into me, "Take it." Then he took out two military coats from a sack, held them in his hands, and was about to leave.
"Don't you pay?" I kindly warn.
He Yi walked to the door and turned his head to look at me, "You just put the money at the front desk, I don't mind if you pay my money together." ”
