53. Thief
It's just that if you don't realize it, once you realize it, Qi will never let that guy stay like that. But before he could act, he saw the queen and Ergou turning around from the entrance of the building, and Ergou was still shouting: "You guys are not eating?" ”
He and the queen discussed the plan of action for the evening in the house, planning to come out to settle dinner first, only to find that Hao Dong and Qi Jue had disappeared. I was about to make a phone call, when I heard a voice in the backyard, so I came here.
Seeing them appear, Qi couldn't help frowning, could it be that he was delusional just now? Burying his doubts in his heart, Qi Jue once again glanced at the Erguotou with disgust, and finally decided to be extravagant according to his own ideas. Anyway, those wines were also given by others to Ergou, and they didn't waste their own money!
Hao Dong didn't notice Qi Jue's little abacus, and when he heard Ergou ask, he immediately replied: "The proprietress left us vegetables, and the stove will not be so busy for a while, so I can also fry two dishes first." If you're hungry, let's go eat first. ”
As he spoke, he had already picked up the washed and cut white and the razor clams that had been watered several times, and walked to the other end of the kitchen.
Qi Jue, who is basically preoccupied with drunk shrimp at present, saw Hao Dong turn around and go to the kitchen, hurriedly poured all the washed white shrimp into the jar used to drunk them, and immediately ran to the porch to take the bottle of Wuliangye, and opened and poured it before Ergou reacted!
The second dog was stunned for a while by Qi Jue's movements, and reacted almost painfully to roar, don't look at such a small bottle, the market price is thousands of oceans, and his master actually used it to make drunken shrimp!
It's a pity that Qi Jue's speed is too fast, and when Ergou understands that he came over to rescue, he has already gone down with half a bottle of wine. The whole backyard was filled with the wonderful smell of wine, and many diners from the small restaurant ran to the kitchen door leading to the backyard to inquire about it, they had not seen this good wine in this small restaurant.
So when Hao Dong carried the fried dishes from the kitchen to their table in the lobby of the small restaurant, he saw Ergou staring at Qi Jue with a sad face, and he was still holding the bottle of his dead daughter Hong tightly in his arms.
This picture is more terrifying, and Hao Dong's mouth can't close in surprise for a while. As if she hadn't noticed at all, the queen saw him come out and immediately beckoned: "Eat quickly, there is something to do after eating." ”
Hao Dong, who came back to his senses in the queen's words, put down the dishes, and then didn't until he finished eating, when he finally understood where Ergou's grudge came from, and immediately joined Ergou's ranks.
Staring at the condemnation of the two, Qi Jue finally became a little unsettled, and took out the jar of drunken shrimp: "The taste is indeed better." ”
As soon as the lid of the jar was lifted, the aroma of wine mixed with the aroma of sauce was so strong that the eyes of almost a room of diners who had not left were focused on them. Some people even came over and asked, "Do you want to sell this drunken shrimp?" ”
Ergou was sad and angry, and put only half a bottle of Wuliangye on the table: "Sell!" This bottle is three thousand eight hundred and eighty-eight, plus the money of the shrimp, this superb drunk shrimp is one or two or five hundred, and you can sell it if you take the money! ”
I don't know if his appearance is too fierce, or if he was shocked by the price he offered, it didn't take long for the surrounding people to disperse. Ergou continued to turn his gaze to stare at the jar angrily: "It's all used, it's even more wasteful if you don't eat it!" ”
The queen immediately hit his outstretched hand with a chopstick: "Drunk things, come back and talk about it, don't make a mistake." ”
Hao Dong felt that at that moment he definitely heard Ergou's inner wail, but although he was very sympathetic to him, he also felt that he wanted to laugh unkindly.
Qi Jue completely ignored the turmoil on the dinner table, and when everyone tossed, he had silently spit out a plate of shrimp shells. That's right, leaving aside the queen and the second dog who can't touch the spirits more in order not to delay the night's plan, if Hao Dong doesn't move the chopsticks now, soon Xiao Qi Ye should be able to solve all the jars by himself.
However, seeing Qi Jue's movements, Hao Dong suddenly exclaimed. The queen was too powerful before, and he was interrupted by Qi Jue's selection of wine, so he came over to cook and eat in a daze, and his drunken crab was only half handled!
Remembering this, he immediately jumped up and ran to the backyard, only to find that the proprietress had already helped him dispose of the rest of the crabs and was loading the altar.
Seeing him come out, the chubby and kind proprietress laughed and joked to him: "It's the first time I see a chef who forgets halfway through cooking, you have adjusted the sauces, if you don't come out again, I can help you get drunk." It's not good to put more after this thing is split. ”
Hao Dong's face turned red, and it was rare to feel that he was too embarrassed to even speak.
Fortunately, the drunk ingredients were all mixed by himself, and the proprietress helped him finish it, and the taste should not be too bad. He immediately went over and took over: "Thank you." ”
The proprietress herself is as old as Hao Dong, and she likes it when she sees boys of this age. And his son refuses to inherit the family's restaurant, and he prefers a boy who can cook.
Seeing Hao Dong's embarrassed look, he didn't tease him anymore, and asked the cooker to pull an extra light bulb into the yard for him, so that he could see more clearly, and he went back to the house.
The proprietress had helped Hao Dong open all the crabs according to his method before, and seemed to have guessed Hao Dong's thoughts, the jar was filled with some crab pieces, and the sauce was added layer by layer, and the crab legs were still outside.
Hao Dong then finished building the remaining crab pieces, added enough sauce, and spread the crab legs evenly on top, pouring all the last bit of sauce on it. Then he took a bottle of liquor with a degree no lower than Ergou's bottle of Wuliangye, and filled the entire jar. Then, the mouth of the jar was tightly sealed.
Ordinary drunk crabs may not use such a high number of wine, but they are fast food, and they are afraid that the sterilization effect will be poor if they are not enough.
As a rule, the next step should be refrigeration. However, under the premise that they would have been waiting to eat for a while, if it weren't for the fear of affecting the taste too much, Hao Dongdu would have even wanted to heat it a little, of course, this step would have been canceled.
Hao Dong put the jar in a corner where it would not be accidentally touched, and let it naturally penetrate the flavor. When the queen and the others come back, they will eat a table of supper, and then take it out at the end, they should barely be able to eat.
When Hao Dong was doing this, the queen and the second dog had already returned to the room and would leave in a while, but Qi Jue returned to the backyard and looked at Hao Dong with blank eyes.
The small jar of shrimp he had just now was a little insufficient, and the ingredients were still there anyway, so he wanted to make Hao Dong drunk more. He believes that with Hao Dong's craftsmanship, if he still uses good wine, the taste will definitely be even better.
It's a pity that although he really wanted to watch Hao Dong cook, Qi Jue soon found that it didn't work, and his mobile phone suddenly moved, and it turned out to be an intrusion alarm.
The mobile phones of their expedition were all specially customized, but even so, because of the education they received since childhood, Qi Jue was still able to develop some more detailed but practical functions for them, such as this break-in alarm.
It is to install a simple Bluetooth signal device on the doors and windows of the house, and after starting, once the door and window have a switch, the signal device will send a signal to his mobile phone and give him an alarm.
There shouldn't be anything particularly important in their room, and they are used to hiding their identity documents and the like. But there are still valuables, such as expedition equipment. Although it is worthless to ordinary people, in the eyes of connoisseurs, it is something that they are willing to spend.
Moreover, Qi Jue's eyes narrowed subconsciously, maybe the figure he saw at the entrance of the building before was not an illusion, but someone was really thinking about them.
Since everyone has come to the door by themselves, it is too wasteful to let the other party sing a one-man show, Qi Jue put down the drunken shrimp seasoning jar in his hand, pulled down the brim of his hat, and turned around and went to the kitchen of the small restaurant. If you go directly to their room by going down the stairway, you can see his movements from the direction of the window of the room, and it is easy to startle the snake, so he decides to go around from the outside.
The person who sneaked into their room should be a very skilled thief, and if he knew that there were people in the house too late, it would definitely be difficult to do it. At this time, there were only two of them left, and they should be cooking outside, and they must have the least vigilance in the house, so they seized the opportunity to sneak in.
And this person is very light-handed, if it weren't for the alarm device, if he just passed by the room, he wouldn't have noticed that someone had crept in.
Qi Jue carefully lightened his steps when he approached, the windows of their house had already been manipulated by them, the hinges were locked, it was unlikely that the person would fall out of the window, as long as the door was blocked, he was not afraid of people running away.
Sure enough, the people in the door were not alarmed, and Qi Jue could even hear the movement in the door until he walked to the door.
The inn is really small, with only two floors up and down, and their room is just around the corner on the front desk on the ground floor.
The management of the small inns in the town was very lax, and the little girl at the front desk did not even sit in the service desk, but watched TV in the small room inside the service desk, and occasionally glanced at the service desk. Not to mention the kind of thief who must have come cautiously, it was Qi Jue, and the little girl didn't notice it when she entered the door just now.
Since he arrived at the door, Qi Jue quietly opened the door with the room card, hid by the door, and pushed the door open with a gentle push with his hand.
The movement inside stopped when the door was ticking, and the door of this small hotel was not very good, and the hinges made a grinding sound when it was opened. Qi Jue's five senses are many times more sensitive than ordinary people, and he can hear the breathing of the thief inside, which is temporarily suppressed.
However, the person inside is obviously an extremely responsive person, or he has already considered all kinds of unexpected situations. After noticing that no one had come in immediately, he immediately moved to the door. Qi Jue was dumbfounded, at this moment, he and that guy were only separated by a wall.
It seems that this man's idea is not to start a confrontation head-on, but to see if he can sneak out first if he has the opportunity.
Qi Jue and the thief held back for a while, and found that the other party was very calm, slowed down his breathing and waited motionlessly. Thinking of Hao Dong for a while, if he would be suspicious if he hadn't gone out for a long time, it would be more troublesome if he came over to check. In the end, it was decided to do it yourself.
Sure enough, when the thief saw someone stepping into the room, he was very clever and wanted to get out of the gap between the back of Qi Jue's blind spot and the door, but unfortunately he underestimated Qi Jue's reaction speed, and as soon as he moved, he felt that the wind was gusting in his ears, and it was too late to dodge, so he could only rush out of the room.
Qi Jue naturally wouldn't let him slip away so easily, and he didn't turn around, and kicked his right foot directly backwards.
The thief reacted really quickly, and when he saw that something was wrong, he immediately stopped his movements, and at the same time smashed Qi Jue's head with his right hand waving a weapon. If Qi Jue dodge, he will be able to get out; If Qi does not hide but fights, then he must retract his right foot at the same time, and he can also go out.
