Are you looking for a lease or a boyfriend?
Chapter 35 Thief
The bedroom door was unlocked, and the garlic was still in the living room.
Two thoughts popped into Lin Shu's mind, and he broke out in a cold sweat.
Money doesn't matter, but Suantou is still sleeping in the living room, Lin Shu is afraid that the kitten will make a fuss when it sees a stranger, and will be strangled to death by a thief.
Lin Shu turned over, trying to wake Xie Mingshan up, but as soon as he moved, he was hugged from behind.
"Don't talk." Xie Mingshan whispered in his ear, then covered Lin Shu with a quilt, and sat up quietly.
Lin Shu's heart beat like a drum, afraid that Xie Mingshan would rush out to confront the thief, so he sat up quickly and grabbed him.However, Xie Mingshan stopped moving after sitting up. Lin Shu looked strange, but he didn't dare to move. It was very quiet in the dark night, and the slight noise outside was infinitely amplified. The "rumbling" sound hit Lin Shu's heart superior.
At this moment, Xie Mingshan's cell phone suddenly turned on.
As soon as the phone's own ringtone rang, the two people in the room were breathless for a moment, then Xie Mingshan quickly rushed out of bed, taking advantage of the huge ringtone to cover, and locked the door.
Xie Mingshan leaned against the door with his left index finger on his lips, making a gesture of silence.
The phone was still ringing, Xie Mingshan picked it up, his voice sounded like he had just been awakened from sleep, with a sense of stickiness: "Sister, it's midnight, why are you calling?"
"Oh, it's the wrong dial." Xie Mingshan's voice was still vague after waking up, but his eyes were sharply fixed on the door: "I'm sleeping, I ran with the boss all day today, and I'm exhausted."
"I asked for leave today to send Xiao Zhao off, but the boss insisted on telling me to go to work. He changed suppliers before, and there were defective products in this batch of goods. He went to ask for compensation, and asked me to follow along to build momentum." " Xie Mingshan yawned deliberately: "No, there was no fight. Look at my body, stand back, who dares to come up?"
"Okay, stop talking, I'm going to bed, and I have to get up early tomorrow." Xie Mingshan hung up the phone after speaking, the phone screen went out, and the bedroom returned to silence and darkness.
There was no sound in the living room. Lin Shu turned his head and listened for a long time, but there was no sound at all outside. It was so quiet that he thought that the previous noise was an illusion.
Lin Shu raised his head to look at Xie Mingshan, who waved his hand very seriously, telling him not to move.
The two waited in this darkness for a long time, when suddenly there was a "click" outside, followed by the sound of footsteps, the sound of windows being pushed and pulled, and the sound of wind.
Xie Mingshan still leaned against the door and did not move. When Lin Shu's tense nerves were relaxed and drowsiness flooded in, Xie Mingshan walked to the bedside and turned on the lamp.
"You get up first, I'll go outside to have a look." Xie Mingshan handed the phone to Lin Shu, and when he got out of bed, he asked Lin Shu to hold the electric kettle next to the bed, while he himself blocked the door, Lin Shu stood behind him and quietly opened a crack.
The living room was empty except for one window that was wide open, blowing out the curtains in a fluttering bulge.
Xie Mingshan went out, opened the waiting room in the living room first, picked up the ashtray on the coffee table nearby, walked quickly to the window sill to observe the situation: there was a hole in the glass where the window lock was locked, presumably it was turned over from the roof. On the sixth floor, he opened the window again to burglary. Xie Mingshan carefully patted the surrounding curtains to confirm that no one was hiding there, put down the ashtray, and closed the open window tightly.
Lin Shu searched for garlic all over the room.
Suantou usually sleeps in the cat's kennel in the living room, Lin Shu went out to look at it the first time, but there was nothing inside, just as Lin Shu let go of his heart, he raised his throat again, yelling "Suantou, Suantou", and then I'm afraid that the kitten has already been thrown down from the sixth floor.
Fortunately, a few seconds later, a meow came from behind the sofa.Then Xiao Suan poked his head out from the corner between the back of the sofa and the wall. Seeing that there were only Lin Shu and Xie Mingshan in the room, he meowed and walked to Lin Shu's feet.
Number of forests: ...
Lin Shu squatted down and hugged the kitten in his arms, and said with a speechless expression: "Xie Mingshan, look at your son, don't talk about guarding the house when the thief comes, hide yourself first, you little coward."
Xie Mingshan was looking for wide tape at the side, and was going to seal up the broken hole first. Hearing this, he laughed out loud, and walked over to the kitten paw that grabbed Garlic and shook it: "It's very smart."
Suantou was found, and the two finally felt relieved and began to count the lost things at home.
The living room was turned into a mess, and the 1000 yuan in emergency cash in the drawer was naturally gone. The old desktop computer in the study could not be moved by the thief, so he stole Lin Shu’s newly bought laptop computer, but fortunately it was a new one. Yes, before the files could be reversed, Lin Shu hadn't lost all of his painstaking efforts for several years.Lin Shu felt distressed and thankful, sitting on the sofa rubbing garlic to relieve his fluctuating emotions.
"There's nothing left. Did you miss anything?" Lin Shu asked.
"I'm missing an old mobile phone, the one I used as a video player before, I threw it on the sofa yesterday and didn't take it back to the house." Xie Mingshan checked it inside and out: "There is also the one in your study that is used as a bookend. The little Cupid sculpture is gone."
"Damn it." Lin Shu blurted out a curse word.
That sculpture is worthless, so Lin Shu didn't pay attention to it when he saw it just now, but it was a souvenir bought for Zheng Hui when he was still alive, and he went out to play one year, and there was "to Lin Shu, I wish you Find a handsome boyfriend as soon as possible", Lin Shu was so distressed that he lost this thing.
"Call the police." Lin Shu said bitterly.
The thief should not have gone far, and now the police may still be caught.
Xie Mingshan didn't speak, walked to Lin Shu and sat down, after a moment of silence, he said, "I don't think we can call the police now."
Lin Shu turned his head and was about to ask why, when he suddenly realized: How can he explain the fact that he and Xie Mingshan slept in the same bed when the police came? Wouldn't that mean coming out to the whole world?
Lin Shu, who wanted to understand, leaned on Xie Mingshan's chest dejectedly, feeling extremely sad.
"Clean up and call the police tomorrow morning, and don't worry about things." Xie Mingshan was also depressed when a thief happened to his home, but he still remembered to comfort Lin Shu: "Don't be sad, at least the little angel's mission has been accomplished. Yes, I sent you a handsome boyfriend."
Lin Shu licked the cat's hand, and Suantou took the opportunity to jump off his lap and ran back to the cat's nest to sleep.
"Your consolation is really... a straight man" Lin Shu said dumbfoundedly.But he was in a better mood. He glanced at the clock, and it was almost four o'clock: "Forget it, let's save money and avoid disaster. It's getting late, let's go to bed quickly."
The two were just about to go back to the room, but Xie Mingshan stopped. Lin Shu followed Xie Mingshan's gaze and found a hammer standing in the corner of the wall outside the bedroom door, behind the huge qinyeban potted plant.
Lin Shu gasped.
It is entirely conceivable that when Xie Mingshan answered the phone, the thief was standing outside the door, holding a hammer and waiting for them to come out.
"It's a good thing you didn't go out at that time." Lin Shuhou said fearfully.
Even if Xie Mingshan was strong and strong, he couldn't hold back the hammer.
"Just now I heard there was no movement outside, so I was afraid he was waiting outside." Xie Mingshan also felt lingering fear, bowed and took out the hammer, weighed it in his hand, and suddenly smiled again: "I'm afraid this kid A novice, why did he put the hammer at the door, if I come out at this time, it just happened to give me a weapon."
"You understand quite well." Lin Shu said angrily, "When I saw you sitting up, I thought you were going to go out and scared me."
Xie Mingshan suddenly showed a bit of embarrassment: "Actually, I was thinking about it at the time, but your right hand was numb from your pressure. After I got up, my right hand hurt, so I didn't dare to go out."
Lin Shu didn't expect this to be the reason, and was a little dumbfounded for a while: "It's fortunate that your hands are numb. Money is a small matter, but human life is a big matter. If there is such a thing in the future, stay at home honestly, you know."
"I know." Xie Mingshan bowed his head obediently.
The next day, Lin Shu communicated with the property owner, only to find out that three or four of the top-floor residents of their buildings had been stolen, and the one on the east side should have lost the most, except for the loss of two mobile phones and the hostess' gems and jewelry. In addition, I lost my children's winter homework.
"No, what are the thieves doing for stealing winter vacation homework?" Lin Shu was puzzled.
"Isn't homework packed in a schoolbag? I guess the thief stole it with the book bag, so he took homework away with him." The security guard finished with a smile, then remembered the business again, and asked, "By the way, Professor Lin Have burglars entered your house?"
"I got in, why didn't I get in." Lin Shu also felt annoyed when thinking about it now: "I lost a new laptop, it's ten thousand small."
"Alas..." The security of the community will inevitably be responsible for the owner's accident, so he is very worried: "Some of the owners have already reported the case and said that the police will come in the afternoon. Professor Lin, remember to keep someone at your house."
"Got it." Lin Shu went out in a depressed mood.They got up in the morning and didn't do anything. They first set up a bed in the study, and then tried to hide their couple's toothbrush, couple slippers, and couple's water cup, trying to create that Lin Shu and Xie Mingshan were just pure landlords and tenants. The illusion of relationship is not like meeting the police uncle, but facing a surprise inspection by the dormitory supervisor.
Lin Shu didn't sleep well all night and had to do physical labor for half a day. His mood was as gloomy as the smog in Beijing.Lin Shu buried himself in the scarf and walked out sullenly, just in time to meet the father and son of Donghu's family.
"Master Wang, take the child out to play." Lin Shu pulled himself out of the scarf and greeted him.
"Where is it?" Donghu's father said helplessly, "I lost my homework, so I have to take him to buy a new one."
The child was dragging behind, his little face wrinkled into a ball, but when he heard what his father said, he finally couldn't help crying out with a "wow".
The voice sounded extremely sincere, and when Lin Shu walked far away, he could still hear the heart-piercing wail of the child, crying loudly and desperately.
Two thoughts popped into Lin Shu's mind, and he broke out in a cold sweat.
Money doesn't matter, but Suantou is still sleeping in the living room, Lin Shu is afraid that the kitten will make a fuss when it sees a stranger, and will be strangled to death by a thief.
