Himemoto's interpretation

It was dark and the rain had stopped.

A clock placed in an unknown corner "tick-tick-tick" jumped the needle.

At a quarter past ten, the lights in Chen Xiaohua's room in the east building were dark.

looking for a thief...

Xingqi "crunched" the nougat, protesting in the only way she could think of.

Of the four people tested in the end, three came for the Guanyin statue worth tens of millions, and the detective still wanted to catch the thief, so it was self-evident who the suspect was, and there was no need to think about it.

In order to divert the irritability of being a suspected thief, Xingqi tried it on the verge of a headache.

Chen Xiaohua, Wu Zheng, and Yang Hongzhu are friends, and they already knew where the Guanyin statue is, and these two days are acting together...

It sounds unbelievable at first, but the detective said that there should be sufficient evidence.

only--

"Uncle Yang didn't say anything else when he gave me the ginseng, but he emphasized that he was looking for his daughter." Xingqi rubbed her ears, looking at the window that Yang Hongzhu knocked on last night, "Could he be coerced?" ?”

Xia Libai looked at her steadily for a while, endorsing this person's innocence, kindness, and romance, but carefully added the corresponding derogatory words below, such as stupidity, hypocrisy, and even cunning.

Why is she so obsessed with making excuses for others, willing to believe that no matter how bad people are, they are inherently good, and that every evil deed has a compelling reason?

If people's hearts were as glamorous as one-tenth of what she described, let alone detectives, half of the police would be laid off.

"He took the Avalokitesvara under the cover of Wu Zheng, which seems to be a fact." Xia Libai nodded his tablet, "The island has become an urn, the big bastard hit the south wall, and the little bastard should go to the north wall."

A pair of unscrupulous bastards emerged from the mouth of the detective who was always dressed, and Xing Qi burst out laughing, "You are a fish in a jar."

"That's right, I caught a turtle in a urn, but it's not just the little bastard, the big bastard, and the old bastard, but also a mysterious thief." Xia Libai looked away before she turned her face, and brought back the topic bluntly, "Aren't you curious? Why do we plan to find the thief?"

She used "we".

Xingqi scratched her sweaty hair. The detective had a headache and couldn't let go of this topic, and the unknown irritability in her heart was also growing. She stood up on her knees, "Sorry... Detective, I'm going to the bathroom."

This bedroom is not big, Xing Qi didn't take a few steps before she saw a long and thin shadow wrapped around her body, without turning her head, the detective's breath was already on the back of her neck.

"I told you that night, a thief who was wandering in the Sanjiang River Basin witnessed the murder and escaped. In fact, before the thief fled, he deliberately alarmed Boss Wang and opened the blockade, so that Boss Wang and his gang would let go of the victim and seize the opportunity to escape. Villa. And this just saved the victim's life."

Xingqi said "oh" in a daze, and the detective's gloomy tone that night echoed "the gangster killed him".

She looked down at the shadow of the detective who also stopped, "No, no...that?"

Did you not get killed?

"The spine was injured, he lay dead for a year, and after nine months of rehabilitation, he is now able to move freely."

Xia Libai twirled his fingertips, they were still slightly sticky and wet, and then turned his gaze to the back of Xingqi's head.

Be conscious of finding your purpose, and even the tiniest of clues can become huge.On the back of Xingqi's head is a ferocious and messy white centipede, extending intermittently from the root of the left ear to the occipital bone on the right side. No matter how thick or unkempt the hair can't completely cover it, it's shocking to see.

She couldn't help but soften her tone, "Recalling the incident, the eldest son insisted that it was the thief who saved him, so the family all feel that they should thank the thief."

"Are you... are you kidding me?"

Realizing that she had been standing still for a long time, Xingqi turned around slowly.

"Even if the gangsters were prevented from committing crimes and wounding people at that time, it would not change the essence of the thief stealing things. Besides, he just bought some time by mistake."

She spoke more and more anxiously, her eyes filled with moist water, but she spoke eloquently without stumbling at all, "Thieves take things that don't belong to them in order to get something for nothing, and they will also kill people for property. What's the point?" Grateful? It is also a thief who harms others, why should you thank the thief? Don’t you think it’s ridiculous?”

Looking at the red-faced rabbit for a moment, Xia Libai raised his eyebrows and looked at her violently rising and falling chest. Then, he passed his hand under her armpit, pushed open the bathroom door with a single stick, and made a "please" gesture, " Okay, I know you're in a hurry, so I won't bother you."

Mo!name!That!wonderful!

Xingqi was still very angry when she sat on the toilet.

She was so angry that she even lost the desire to urinate, and she couldn't produce any water after exerting all her strength.

"Knock, knock, knock—" Xia Libai knocked on the bathroom door, "I'm not urging you, but just reminding you that little bastard has moved."

Xingqi took out a piece of toilet paper, crumpled it into a ball, put it in her mouth and bit it hard, the detective Haobai's wrist appeared in front of her eyes, she paused, and then bit harder.

When she came out of the bathroom, the detective happened to be carrying a set of dark clothes out of the secret door, "Here, changed, ready to go."

Xingqi took it angrily, deliberately ignoring all the traces of the detective's existence, but the faint fragrance of citrus mixed with mint, if there seems to be nothing, can't be ignored no matter what.

When he got to the detective's side, he even smelled of jasmine.

She squeezed her nose to manually shield her sense of smell, and asked in a muffled voice, "Where are you going?"

"Do you think Yang Hongzhu may be coerced by someone, yes or no, go and see."

The night was dark and windy, and the two of them squatted in the wet grass wearing hats and masks, facing the vast white river.

Xia Libai took out his mobile phone and shook it in front of Xingqi, "Do you want to know how they turned the Guanyin statue around?"

What kind of phone is so dark and bright!Aren't you afraid to expose yourself?

Xingqi stretched her neck nervously and looked back, "It's too ostentatious."

"It doesn't matter, there is radar detection, I will know if someone appears within 200 meters nearby." Xia Libai tapped the hidden earphone on his right ear, "Don't worry."

Xingqi probed for a while, then crouched back to look at the screen in doubt.

The detectives played the technologically processed clips.

The four pillars under the stone bridge are crooked and cracked, and the stone slabs of different sizes and lengths on the top are both thick and thin, which is dangerous to be demolished.

Xingqi remembered the day when six people walked on the bridge, it was wet and slippery, Wu Zheng slipped and was scolded by Chen Xiaohua.

"The statue of Avalokitesvara is hidden here by Boss Wang." Xia Li pointed to the pillars on the side of the stone bridge next to the villa, about two meters away from the river bank. In the first ten seconds, she reminded Xingqi without delineating a specific area, "Pay attention to the river surface."

The water surface is one person high from the bridge, and a light white line is drawn from the top of the center of the screen to the bottom left, and a few millimeters of black line is cut in the middle by the reflection of the bridge.

Xingqi didn't dare to blink, so she immediately noticed small sesame seed-sized dots emerging from the bridge reflected in the water.

Like a dragonfly that touches the water, a leaf that falls into the water and spins, or a small fish that jumps out of the water.

It only appeared for about ten seconds, and suddenly disappeared.

"This is……"

"See?"

Xingqi pointed to the lower left corner of the screen, and circled the area where the black spots appeared, "There are shadows shaking."

"Ah."

After a few words of dialogue, the progress of the video went on for more than [-] seconds. Behind Wu Zheng was Yang Hongzhu, who was holding a fishing rod and a big horse at the head of the bridge, as stable as a rock.

"that's it?"

"that's it."

The total duration was less than 20 seconds. Yang Hongzhu turned over and got off the bridge to take away the Guanyin statue, and when he came up, he could still maintain the original posture, as if "I didn't move, but the flag was moving", and nothing happened. This——

"The acting skills are too powerful!"

"This is his personal martial arts." Xia Libai opened the next video, "Let's watch the rivalry."

It was when Wu Zheng and Chen Xiaohua collided head-on after returning.

The rain was violent, the water mist rose, and the surveillance video recorded that you were coming and going, and the two bumped each other's shoulders. Afterwards, Chen Xiaohua didn't look back, and Wu Zheng scolded his mother on the spot.

The screen switched to outside the villa, and Chen Xiaohua lowered his right hand from his chest.

"At this time, the Guanyin statue is in Chen's hands."

The third video, which Xingqi had seen before, was a scene of Chen Xiaohua and Wu Zheng fighting in a restaurant.

"Now, the Guanyin statue has been returned to Wu Zheng."

What does that have to do with us squatting here in the middle of the night?

Xingqi hugged her chest tightly.

The dark night jacket the detective gave her was made of unknown material. It was light and thin, and she felt warm even without a down jacket, but the waist was empty, and occasionally a gust of cold air leaked in, which was uncomfortable.

Seeing the bright question marks on her face, Xia Libai asked: "I want to know why the three of you acted together and why you came here?"

Xingqi nodded hurriedly.

Xia Libai thought for half a minute, and compiled a (at least in her opinion) simple and easy-to-understand answer.

"Blindfolded."

First of all, this group of people must be ready to put the test in the villa to attract people to the bait.Therefore, there must be someone to attract attention, and this person is Chen Xiaohua.

His performance is ostentatious, and he does his best to play the role of a shit-scratcher with impure motives.

Run away other interviewees (Lele), there are fewer people, and it is easier to control the situation.

His unsociability is also to create an opportunity for a person to go down the mountain to deliver things.

Secondly, in the face of the extra Xingqi, it is very tempting to say that Wu Zheng divides the bonus evenly because he has to monitor her and exclude her from key scenes.

But when the detective recruited Xingqi away, Wu Zheng, as a monitor, couldn't follow them openly, and it was logical for Chen Xiaohua, who acted alone, to follow them.

"There are disagreements between the two groups. When one party's transfer plan hits a wall and is handed over to the other party to continue, at least they feel that it is not so obvious.

"Actually, it doesn't matter even if you go fishing with them, with Yang Hongzhu's skill, as long as Wu Zheng lures you away for half a minute, that's enough.

"Yang Hongzhu is a herb picker in Dameng Mountain. He should have mentioned this to you. He has been climbing cliffs all year round. Picking herbs from rock crevices is his professional skill. As long as he successfully takes away the Guanyin statue, he will be paid more He earned more by collecting medicine for a lifetime.

"And on the day of the interview, it was Chen Xiaohua who reminded me that Yang Hongzhu was a bit skilled, so I could consider it.

"If I send the drone over there, Wu Zheng and Yang Hongzhu won't be able to send things down the mountain in time, so they can only replace Chen Xiaohua.

"There are only two roads to take the Guanyin statue down the mountain, the north and the south. The south bridge has been destroyed, so the north—"

The detective raised his jaw towards the vast river, and Jasmine's breath suddenly became strong.

Xingqi touched her nose and followed her gaze.

The back cliff is connected to the river, and a small boat is parked under the cliff, and it is okay to throw things down.

I just don't know if there is enough strong packaging to protect the Guanyin statue from being damaged when it is dropped at a height of 100 meters.

But that's Guanyin Bodhisattva, so he shouldn't let himself be smashed to pieces.

Xingqi folded her palms together and made a bow, silently chanting Amitabha Buddha.

"You thought they would throw the Guanyin statue down?" the detective said with a smile.

Unexpectedly, the detective could see through this, so Xingqi rubbed the back of her head in embarrassment.

"Of course I let Yang Hongzhu send it down, he just—" The voice stopped abruptly, Xia Libai covered his ears tightly with one hand, signaling Xingqi to keep quiet, "Here comes."

It was Wu Zheng and Yang Hongzhu who came.

After passing the hidden wireless adapter range, the microphone on the zipper of Wu Zheng's sportswear is automatically activated.

Indistinct voices entered the detective's headset.

"Don't worry."

"Didn't we agree that when we get down the mountain, Brother Chen will help you publish a missing person notice in the largest newspaper in the country."

"Yes, 1000 million traffic is a newspaper that is read by at least 1000 million people every day."

"Don't worry, you will definitely find your little treasure."

"Hide this thing well, don't bump into it."

detective:"……"

She squinted at the nervous Xingqi, pushed her away with her elbow, and lowered her hat, "Hide well, don't show your head."

When Xingqi merged with the night, Xia Libai turned on the phone and quickly typed out a line of words——

[The rabbit has been confirmed and is ready for a meeting. 】

The author has something to say: the question is who the thief is, and there is a skinny one who is right.
