Abandoned by the best children? I just take out the space

"Let's go take a look." Wan Shufang felt familiar with the voice and hurriedly pulled Chen Changli over, almost bumping into a tall and thin man carrying a sack.

At the moment when they were about to collide, Chen Changli put his arm around her waist and quickly hugged her into his arms. Then he took a step aside and stretched out his feet to hook the person.

The tall and thin man fell to the ground with a bang, and he was so painful that he yelled: "Which blind bastard harmed me?"

Chen Changli put Wan Shufang aside and quickly stepped forward to catch the tall and thin man, and then answered him coldly: "Your ancestors couldn't stand you and made you fall down."

Pfft, Wan Shufang couldn't help but laugh.

Chen Changli looked at her, and his voice was as clear and cold as a clear spring in the mountains: "Daughter-in-law, are you scared?"

"You reacted much faster than me. I was not scared." Wan Shufang said this and glanced at Chen Changli. There was a bit of tenderness in her eyes, which made Chen Changli's heart uncontrollable. Jumped.

"It's good that he's not scared. Ahem, the thief is still struggling. I have to tie him up." Chen Changli breathed lightly, and then picked up the tall and thin man after regaining his composure.

At this time, a group of thin and small people also chased after them, led by the most famous Widow Xu in the village.

As soon as she saw that the thief who stole her own food was caught, she immediately rushed towards him with a claw.

Her claws were very fierce, and her appearance was instantly disfigured as she was tall and thin.

"The food in this sack was given to me by my parents' family. It is enough food for our family of three for a month!"

"Without it, our family of three would have starved to death. You stupid bastard, you dare to steal my food. I will beat you to death."

The people who came over to help catch the thief were also furious.

Without saying a word, they rushed over and beat the tall and thin man.

The reason why they are so angry is because their food has been stolen.

Now that they have caught a thief, they have to vent their anger.

"Food is a life-saving thing now. Where did you come from? Why did you steal our food?"

"Where did you put our food? Give it back to us quickly."

Many people rushed over at once, and Chen Changli was startled.

These people all targeted the tall and thin man and beat them menacingly.

Even if Chen Changli had martial arts, his physical fitness was several times stronger than these people, and he was almost crushed by these people like a piece of wood.

He no longer grabbed the tall and thin man, he just let go and hid to the side with lingering fear.

The tall and thin man lost his control and wanted to run away, but was surrounded and beaten by a group of people.

He felt that he was about to be beaten to death, and couldn't help shouting: "This is my first time stealing food. What does it have to do with me if your food is lost?"

"Have their food been stolen from all these villagers?" Wan Shufang couldn't help but think thoughtfully as she listened to the villagers' curses.

Chen Changli was also surprised: "Looking at how angry the villagers are, this thing should be true, but I don't know why it didn't happen?"

Food being stolen is a big deal, so why doesn't anyone talk about it in the village?

Wan Shufang also thought of this and quickly stepped forward to stop everyone, "Don't fight, he will die if you continue to fight like this."

"This man is a thief with bad behavior. If you beat him to death and go to jail, it's not worth it at all. What you have to do now is to ask why he stole food, and then find your food through him. "

Wan Shufang's words reminded everyone, but within a few breaths, the angry people gradually returned to their senses.

The tall and thin man was beaten until his nose was bruised and his face was swollen. His body hurt as if his bones were broken. After a while, he lay limp on the ground like a dead dog.

Widow Xu was still angry and kicked him hard a few times, then grabbed the sack that fell next to her and took it into her arms. "Fortunately, the thief was caught. Otherwise, how would our family live?"

The more she talked, the more frightened she became. Widow Xu wanted to kick the tall and thin man to death.

"Sister-in-law Xu, please get up quickly." Wan Shufang saw Widow Xu burst into tears and quickly stepped forward to help her up. Then she asked softly, "What's going on with this thief? How did you find him?"

Hearing her ask about this matter, Widow Xu's face suddenly twisted: "My youngest son found it. He was playing hide and seek with his friends today and hid in the kitchen. He saw this evil guy secretly browsing The wall entered the kitchen and stole the food my mother gave our family.”

"Is it so blatant?" Wan Shufang was surprised. It was daytime now. Is this thief crazy? He actually started stealing things at this time.

Other villagers were also shocked: "Why is this thief so bold?"

Chen Changli hurriedly asked: "How did you find out that your food was stolen? Does it have anything to do with this thief?"

There was a villager with a mouth as sharp as a machine gun, and he spoke out suddenly.

"It was my daughter-in-law who found something wrong with the amount of food at home when she was cooking today, so she started a quarrel with her at home."

"When she made such a fuss, the neighbors who were close to us were extremely worried, so they went home to check the amount of grain, and only then discovered that the grain might have been stolen."

"It happened that at this time someone shouted to catch the thief, so we rushed over, hoping that after catching the thief, our food would be recovered."

As soon as he finished speaking, the others nodded to indicate that was what they thought.

When Chen Changli heard what they said, he felt more and more weird about it.

Wan Shufang had the same idea as him. After thinking about it, she said: "The food in my field has been destroyed. I suspect that someone is deliberately targeting my family. However, the clues have been cut off and no one can be found. What's more, what I didn't expect is you." There is also a problem with the food, I’m afraid it’s not that simple.”

"Chen family, what do you mean by this?" Widow Xu felt frightened and her whole body trembled unconsciously.

There were signs of food being stolen from the neighbors. Widow Xu couldn't help but feel that she was lucky. After all, she not only caught the thief, but also recovered all the stolen food.

"The person who stole the food was either a person from our village, or there was an insider in our village. He told outsiders the news about each family, and then tried to find a way to cover it up for the outsider, so that the outsider stole our things. ." Wan Shufang's tone was affirmative.

Chen Changli quickly added: "That person may have acted in the middle of the night, and there was more than one person."

The villagers were in an uproar: "How is this possible?"

Chen Changli speculated: "Maybe it's because of the locust plague."

Hearing him talk about the locust plague, everyone present couldn't help but think of the despair half a month ago, and their faces suddenly turned pale and ugly.

Wan Shufang noticed that they were in a bad mood and knew that they were heavy-hearted due to heavy losses.

She didn't want everyone to be in a bad mood, so she quickly changed the topic: "This matter is not trivial. We must tell the village chief, and then ask the village chief to arrange for everyone to check their own food storage conditions, and then find a way to find the thief."

"My wife is right." Chen Changli agreed with his face, "Let's not delay here and quickly take this thief to the village chief."

But the tall and thin man suddenly got up and ran: "I don't want to see the village chief, and I can't stay here. I have to escape quickly."
