"Actually, until now, I didn't know what the thief was. ”

Sister Haimer's words made Leach a little confused. Isn't a thief a thief, what does it mean to "don't know what it is"?

Seeing Leach's puzzled expression, Sister Hemmer sighed and said, "You can come and see with me......"

Under the leadership of Sister Haimer, several people came to the southeast corner of the courtyard.

Under the shade of the tree in the corner, there was an iron door embedded in the ground, and I only heard Sister Haimer introduce: "I keep the food and funds of the orphanage in this cellar." When I went to pick up the ingredients yesterday morning, I found that all the contents of the cellar were gone, and the iron door was locked. ”

"Locked, are you sure?, how could that thing be lost?" said Leach, surprised.

"Yes, I remember very well, you came with me. ”

Following Sister Hemmer into the cellar, Leach suddenly felt refreshed.

It can be seen that the cellar is often cleaned, and not only are the rows of shelves neatly arranged, but there is no dust accumulation. It's just that there is nothing on the shelves now, and besides that, there is a box in the corner that has been violently smashed open, and the box is also empty.

"This chest is what I use to store my money. Noticing that Leach's eyes were focused on the box, Miss Hemmer hurriedly explained.

"It's strange, why is the lock on the outside intact, but this box is smashed like this?" said Sayaki.

"I think...... The thief seems to have come from under the ground, you see. As she spoke, Sister Haimer pointed to a shelf and said, "In addition to the fact that everything is missing, I found more of this, and because of this, I said that I don't know what a thief is." ”

Leach looked closely, only to see that in the shadow behind the shelves, there was a hole in the ground less than the size of a washbasin.

"It's so small, humans can't get into it...... However, if it's a Warcraft, why do you want to steal the money, and the Warcraft has learned to spend money?"

After all, it can be regarded as a veteran adventure hunter, and Leach once encountered a special incident where a monster who was good at digging holes inadvertently ran into Ambrera City and made the residents jump, but the current situation is a bit plausible, making people scratch their heads at all.

"Sea ...... Sister Heimer, that ...... That one...... I ......" After seeing Sister Hemmer from the beginning, Lina, who had been blushing and silent, suddenly spoke, stammering and looking very cramped.

"What's the matter, little Lena?" asked Miss Hemmer with a smile.

"That...... Can I ...... Can...... Worship you as a teacher?"

“...... Should...... Yes. Sister Haimer was obviously a little caught off guard by Lina's request, and said hesitantly.

"yes, that......'s great! Don't charge money, do you?" Lena jumped three feet high with joy at first, and then asked with a little apprehension.

“......”

“......”

“......”

There was a moment of silence in the cellar, and it was clear that everyone was speechless by Lena's question.

However, Lena herself did not realize it at all, and still looked at Sister Haimer with expectation.

At first, Leach thought that Lena had thought of some possibility about the thief, but she was not very sure, so she only expected Ai Ai to speak, but after listening to it, she was very light.

"You really shouldn't expect anything from Lena......" Leach sneered in his heart, and turned to explain to the messy Sister Hemer, "Sister Hemer, forgive me, Lena, she, hmm...... The way of thinking is different from that of ordinary people, so don't take it personally. ”

In fact, Sister Hemmer knew that Lina's temperament was a little jumpy, but she really didn't expect it to be so weird, and after listening to Leach's explanation, she came back to her senses and said with a forced smile: "Don't accept it, hehe, don't charge money...... By the way, Lena, what are you going to learn from me?"

After finally getting used to Lena's unreliability, Sister Hemmer remembered that she didn't seem to have anything to teach her.

"Of course, you have learned how to take care of the house! You are in charge of such a large orphanage by yourself, and you are well organized, people really admire you! Also, I heard that your cooking is also delicious, and I want to ...... it too Uh-huh......"

Lena was excitedly praising her idol, and Leach, who was on the side, saw that the topic was getting farther and farther, and hurriedly stepped forward to cover her mouth, regardless of her fierce struggle and resistance, and said with a smile: "Sister Haimer, we are off topic!"

"Oh, yes, where did you just go?"

"You just said that you found a hole in the ground over there, is there anything wrong with it?, for example, has there been anything strange going on around here lately?"

"By the way, when the children were playing a few days ago, they said that they saw birds on the mountain and seemed to be startled by something, but this doesn't seem like a strange thing, does it?"

repeatedly confirmed with Sister Haimer that there was nothing else special, and Leach, in line with the principle of preferring to kill mistakes rather than let go, asked Sister Haimer to call the child who saw this scene over.

"That's it, Heather, tell me about what you saw the other day. ”

Heather was a six-year-old boy with a brown newsboy hat on his head and large, bright eyes that looked like a very lively child.

"Hmm...... I climbed up the tree in the backyard that day, and I wanted to see the birds in the nest in the tree, but as soon as I climbed up, I saw a large number of birds flying up the mountain, and I was so frightened that I almost fell off the tree!"

"Is that all?" said Leach, apparently unhappy with the explanation.

On the other hand, Saya on the side looked moved, squatted down and said softly: "Heather, what scared you at that time, is it okay to tell your sister?"

"Sister, you are so beautiful, will I be my bride when I grow up in the future?" Heather was obviously fascinated by the beauty and did not answer the question asked by Saya at all.

Saya's face flushed slightly, and she secretly glanced at Leach, who was crying and laughing.

"Heather, you're naughty again, answer my sister's questions well!" Sister Heather was angry and funny, and gently tapped Heather on the head, and feigned anger.

Probably because she was often "taught" by the dean's mother, Heather not only wasn't afraid, but also made a grimace at Sister Haymer, but still replied honestly: "Because several big trees suddenly fell down on the mountain at that time, I thought that a monster was about to come out of the ground, so I was startled." ”

Hearing this, Leach and Saya glanced at each other, and their eyes lit up.
