Tang Xiaowan walked cautiously on the solid wood ladder, constantly thinking about her grandmother's words in her heart. As she passed by the study, she suddenly heard what seemed to be movement in the master bedroom next door.

Strange, it seems to be the sound of opening a window, and the sound of jumping to the ground!

Granny jumped out of the window...... Sneak out to play?

No, someone came in.

Thinking of this layer, Tang Xiaowan immediately held his breath, carefully pressed his ear against the solid wooden door, and tried to eavesdrop, and the mystery just now became heavier and heavier.

It's a pity that the sound insulation effect of the door is too good, and I can only vaguely hear Tang Mei's voice, which seems to be related to the hot search list.

Tang Xiaowan began to mumble in her heart.

Why don't you pretend you can't sleep and just break in and talk to grandma?

No, maybe I'll slip away.

Who the hell is it? It can't be the masked book thief, right? He's back again, and he wants to make a deal with his grandmother about the candid filming?

Hmph, maybe it's that Jiangbei, and the footprints are about the same size.

The reason why Tang Xiaowan had such a guess was entirely based on the picture of the footprints during the night attack on Meiyuan, and Li Zishen had already sent them all to her before the auction began.

Although she hadn't seen the book thief's face last night, she had carefully compared the pictures on her phone with the half-footprints left in the garden.

There happens to be one of similar sizes.

After a pause for a few seconds, the corners of Tang Xiaowan's mouth hooked slightly, and he tiptoed away.

At this moment, Tang Mei's bedroom.

A woman with her bare back lying flat on the chaise longue, and beside her sat Tang Mei, who was holding a silver needle and had a very serious expression.

"Madam, I'll check on the Internet, you don't have to worry."

"Don't worry about it, someone will take care of it."

"Oh, well, then when the holiday is over, Miss is going to Jincheng...... Or go back to the plum garden? ”

"Sugar candy, that girl, who knows, let it be, maybe I'll go to Akagi." Tang Mei sighed and replied softly.

"Madam, when can I ......?"

"Don't move, it's time for the needle."

Tang Mei's gaze fell on the white back, and her heart was full of thoughts.

This is already the third attempt.

"Don't be nervous, just keep your breathing steady." Then, Tang Mei's fingers pressed lightly twice, expertly stabbing the silver needle into the woman's back and head, and each stroke was unmistakable.

Immediately, the woman's body began to tremble slightly, but this was only the beginning, and there was even greater pain waiting for her to bear later.

"If it hurts, just call it out, it's fine."

"It doesn't hurt, it doesn't hurt at all." The woman replied with a frown.

Although Tang Mei couldn't see this small action, she knew that it was a kind of pain like an explosion of her head, and ordinary people couldn't bear it at all.

What's more, the woman has also been injured.

"Hey, I've wronged you."

"Don't be wronged, don't say that, madam, this is what I should do, as long as Miss can be well, it doesn't matter what I do."

Tang Mei nodded and said, "It's going to start." ”

The woman bit her lip: "Okay." ”

Tang Mei's eyes were deep, and after glancing at the time on the clock, she began to gently turn the silver needle, first the one closest to her waist, and then the head in order.

In the process of turning the silver needle, Tang Mei's fingers sometimes pinched and sometimes released, and every movement was so natural and smooth. This acupuncture technique, the result of years of painstaking practice, can minimize pain.

As the minutes ticked by, the atmosphere in the bedroom became more and more tense.

No matter how uncomfortable it was, the woman never made a sound, but a lot of fine beads of sweat gradually oozed from her forehead.

……

Five minutes later, the roof.

Tang Xiaowan hid in a corner, it was a very hidden position, and ordinary people would not find it at all.

Sometimes she got up, listened carefully to the movement of the window, and sometimes sat down, frowning and thinking.

The conversation in the bedroom was inaudible, which made Tang Xiaowan have a strong curiosity, and he was even more convinced that his grandmother was indeed hiding something.

Hmph, I'd like to see who it is?

But...... Why hasn't it come out yet, it's been almost 20 minutes, what are you talking about? ”

No, shouldn't you go down and have a look?

The more Tang Xiaowan thought about it, the more wrong she became, worried that her grandmother might be in danger, although she knew that her grandmother also had some kung fu on her body.

If there is an emergency, there must be a lot of movement, and she can hear it.

But what if the other party is a top master? Directly make a move to win, so that people don't even have a chance to react.

"Grandma! No, I have to go down. ”

So, Tang Xiaowan hurriedly climbed down from the roof and tiptoed back to the third floor through the window.

This floor is still quiet.

When she was about to push open her grandmother's bedroom door and wanted to go in to see what was going on, she was met with a pair of deep eyes.

"Staying awake so late, what's wrong?"

Through the faint light coming in through the window, Tang Xiaowan turned his head sideways and saw that there was nothing abnormal inside.

But there were obviously people just now.

They must have heard my footsteps and hid for fear of being bumped into by me.

"Grandma, you ...... Haven't slept yet? ”

"Let's go back to bed, it's so late, what's the nonsense, don't you have to get up early tomorrow?"

Tang Xiaowan looked at her grandmother, and the doubts in her heart deepened. She hesitated for a moment, but finally decided to be patient and not to break in.

"Oh, good, grandma bye-bye."

After returning to the second floor, Tang Xiaowan was lying on the bed, still unable to calm down.

She thought about what happened tonight, feeling extremely confused and helpless, thinking about whether she should discuss it with Leng Lingxiao, after all, apart from grandma, he is the most trustworthy person.

It just so happened that there was a sudden sound of footsteps from upstairs.

Tang Xiaowan immediately sat up vigilantly.

She quietly opened the window and looked out through the tiny gap, frowning.

Soon, a woman dressed in black appeared, and she slid stealthily down the wall into the small garden, her movements light and agile.

Tang Xiaowan clenched his fists, his heart beating faster.

Hey, why is it a woman?

Please, please, be sure to leave footprints, preferably to step on the ground intact.

Don't be half-cut!

Tang Xiaowan was thinking about it, when a black car came not far away, and a very burly man wearing large-framed sunglasses came down.

The two were so close that they seemed to be talking about something, as if they were exchanging something.

Strange, this person is not Jiangbei either.

How could grandma have dealings with these people, it can't be that secret organization, right?

But grandma said it was fine!

The more Tang Xiaowan looked, the more confused she became, she didn't know who these two people were and what they would do next, but she had to find out the truth no matter what.

So, she hurriedly picked up the mobile phone on the sofa, and there were several clicks.

"Hmph, it's okay now, it's pretty clear!"
