80s good life

Chapter 34 Sherlock Holmes and Watson

The old man was not in a hurry to go home. He first went to the vegetable market, bought a handful of vegetable leaves, weighed some peanuts, bought some pig ears, and finally bought a bottle of soju before he forgot Go inside the house.

Judging by the amount of food purchased here, it is estimated that I live alone.Fang Manman thought in her heart.

They followed the old man around in the alley, and finally, through a narrow passage, they stopped in front of an old-fashioned old house. The old man took out the key to open the door, and a wheat ear fell from the key.

With sharp eyes, Wang Zhuo pointed to the key chain and said, "I know this key, it's the one I just returned."

Now, the uncle's strange attitude is understandable. He changed the lock from the school to his own door.

Fang Manman looked at this old house, with moss and weeds growing on the eaves, and the windows were pasted with newspapers, which were not warm and leaked air.

The two felt uncomfortable watching such a scene.Especially Wang Zhuo, he grew up in the city, and his family upbringing made him treat everyone equally, but now, he really felt the gap between people.

"Let's go." Fang Manman said, "Let's go ask."

"I still have to ask." Wang Zhuo showed a look of frustration, not because he disliked this place, but because he was afraid of scaring this old man who had a difficult life.

"Don't worry, he's much stronger than you think."

Fang Manman knocked on the door, and after a while, the old man opened the door with a wine glass in his hand.

"You, why are you here? How do you know that I live here?" The old man was a little panicked.

Fang Manman comforted him and said, "Master, don't worry, we came here with you, just want to see this lock."

The uncle was furious: "There is no lock, you guys go!"

Fang Manman said, "You embezzled the school's property and put the lock on your own door. If the school finds out about this, what do you think they will do?"

The old man's lips were trembling, and it took him a long time to say a word: "I don't want this lock anymore, it's broken. If it's broken, I'll use it. What can I do? Girl, please have pity on me. My door has been very difficult for decades. Put the lock on."

Wang Zhuo gave Fang Manman a hand: "If you forget it, I'll just pay it off."

Fang Manman ignored her and said, "Don't worry, we're not here to sue, we're here to see the lock. You let us study it, and I'm sure we'll be rotten."

"Really?" the old man tilted his head and asked.

Fang Manman nodded affirmatively.

Now, the two of them can see the lock up close.

As Wang Zhuo said, the lock was very old. Fang Yuanyuan took out another piece of paper and did the same thing. She could still open the door directly with the paper without a key.

Wang Zhuo said: "I'm actually a little confused now, what do you have to do to verify this matter?"

"You and the teacher have locked the door. At the same time, there is no third key, and there is no sign of picking the lock. It means that the door must be opened by special means. Our method is one, and there are other possibilities, such as A professional lockpicker."

"The thief kind."

"Not ruled out." Fang Manman said: "But you just think, what is there to steal in this school, if the main purpose is to make money, then the possibility of valuables in the principal's office and teacher's office is much higher than here. "

Wang Zhuo went on to say: "In other words, the purpose of stealing equipment is not for money, but for other purposes."

Fang Manman nodded: "Yes. If it is for other purposes, we can boldly assume that you are currently the victim of this incident, which means that the real culprit is targeting you. Have you formed a relationship with anyone recently?"

"There are too many people who are tied to me."

Fang Manman nodded: "You screen and exclude, who is the most likely?"

Wang Zhuo calmed down and thought for a while: "Li Xiaohua, Fang Yuanyuan, Li Fan."

"Who is Li Fan?" The first two Fang Manman knew each other.

"It's my childhood friend, but I don't contact him very often now. He's in another class."

Fang Manman shrugged: "There must be a story. Faxiao actually wants to punish you."

Wang Zhuo sighed: "Okay, I get it. Let's just lose money."

"What's wrong?" Fang Manman was surprised: "We are only one step away from knowing the truth."

"I'm a little tired." After speaking, Wang Zhuo left first: "Let's go, we've been doing this for so long, and we'll be scolded if we go back late."

Fang Manman had other ideas.Judging from Wang Zhuo's recent relationship, Fang Yuanyuan is the most likely one.But Wang Zhuo, from the very beginning, mentioned that Fa Xiao was like an eggplant beaten by Shuang, collapsed, and related to Wang Zhuo's strange attitude towards Fang Yuanyuan, Fang Manman had a guess.

"You, Fang Yuanyuan, Li Dan, did something happen between the three of you?" Fang Manman asked out of nowhere.

Wang Zhuo opened his eyes wide, but quickly denied: "It's nothing, don't think about it, let's go."

Fang Manman smiled slyly: "But your body language has betrayed you. It doesn't matter if you want to say it or not. Let's go, go home."

"I found that sometimes you are quite paranoid." Wang Zhuo said suddenly.

Fang Manman's heart skipped a beat, as if every time she encountered something related to Fang Yuanyuan, she was very concerned and wanted to know the inside story, for fear of missing that detail.

So she said: "Thinking too much, I just like the truth and detective games, have you read "The Collection of Sherlock Holmes", I like it."

In the 80s, too few people read this book.Wang Zhuo happened to be one of them.

"Which one do you like?" Wang Zhuo became interested.

"I like them both." Fang Manman said, "I think you are playing the role of Watson in our match."

Wang Zhuo was not convinced: "Why, I have an extremely intelligent brain."

"But you have emotions." Fang Manman said.

"Holmes also has them. Besides, if you have no emotions, why did you throw money into that house just now?"

Fang Manman was surprised: "Did you see it?"

Wang Zhuo rolled his eyes: "Blind people can't see it. If I didn't bring any money, I would give some."

Walking out of the narrow aisle, the two walked slowly one after the other in the alley.

Fang Manman said suddenly: "That's called mental damage fee."

Wang Zhuo knew what she was talking about, but he seemed a little confused.After thinking for a while, he said, "Fang Manman, don't be too nervous, most people are still good people, such as me, such as you."

Fang Manman pretended not to hear, what else could she say if this person was talking about it without thinking, what else could she say, just confide in her own rebirth.But it is undeniable that this kid has really keen senses.

The two broke up at the door of Fang Manman's house.Needless to say, it was another meal when I went home, after all, it was getting dark.Fang Manman didn't care, once or twice was nothing.It's just that she suddenly thought of Lei Xiaoming. Recently, she has hardly seen this brat.
