Chapter 17 Thief(1/2)

It's getting dark.

Liu Taozi was lying flat on the bed with her eyes closed tightly. Lu Qubing beside her was already fast asleep.

The wind blew gently, beating on the wooden door, making a rustling sound.

Taozi opened her eyes suddenly, stood up quickly, walked to the door in a few steps, and peeked into the courtyard.

In the quiet courtyard, there was a dark shadow, leaning against the wall and moving forward tiptoe.

Every time you take a step, you have to subconsciously look around.

Under Taozi's gaze, the man jumped up, grabbed the courtyard wall, easily lifted himself up, and then disappeared into the night.

Taozi walked out of the door and looked in the direction where the other party disappeared.

Kou Liu stretched out his hands and was now trotting on the courtyard wall.

His figure is like a cat, his feet are very fast, and in the dark night, he is like a gust of wind.

When he encounters a higher courtyard wall, he can climb up with a single jump without making any sound.

He didn't know how long he ran, but he finally stopped and hung on the courtyard wall skillfully, looking around.

In the distance, you can see swaying torches and the barking of big dogs.

Kou Liu frowned, so he had no choice but to change direction, crept to the west, and then climbed down the wall.

Even though it was late at night, there were fires everywhere in the house.

There are even more big dogs.

Kou Liu entered the maze-like courtyard and disappeared.

Time passed little by little, and the stars were extremely bright tonight.

"Ouch!!!"

There was a bark from the front yard, and in a moment, big dogs everywhere started barking.

Someone exclaimed something.

Kou Liu came running wildly, almost flying up the courtyard wall, following the route he came from, and quickly advancing on the courtyard wall.

All the noise was left behind, and his figure disappeared into the darkness.

Kou Liu entered the law school room again, looked around, leaned against the wall, and moved little by little. Soon, he came to the front of his house.

He turned his back to the door, looked around, then slowly pushed the door open with his hand, still looking around cautiously, and stepped back little by little.

At this moment, he felt that he had hit something.

At this moment, Kou Liu's whole body was stiff and his hair stood on end.

A big hand suddenly covered Kou Liu's face. What kind of big hand was it? Kou Liu felt that his whole face was covered. The next moment, he flew up and flew into the house.

Kou Liu quickly grabbed the big hand with both hands and tried to open it.

Something cold touched his neck.

Kou Liu gave up struggling instantly.

The big hand slowly let go, allowing Kou Liu to breathe.

"thief?"

Kou Liu knew this voice, that strange tall Chinese man.

"Let me go and give you money."

"What do you want to learn to steal from the county?"

"It's not stealing."

As soon as Kou Liu finished speaking, his hand seemed to use force again.

"I'm getting my stuff back!"

"Let me go, I have money, otherwise, even if you report to the official, you won't get the money."

The man roughly turned Kou Liu over, grabbed his face, and slammed him against the door. The sword in his hand was pressed against Kou Liu's neck.

Kou Liu was forced to raise his head, and his forehead was covered with thin beads of sweat.

Taozi stared at him, looking him up and down.

The sword in his hand became stronger and stronger, as if it was going to pierce Kou Liu's neck at the next moment.

"I'm not lying to you! Someone took my things and injured my relatives. I'm here to get my things back!"

"Please! Spare me! I can't die yet!"

Kou Liu closed his eyes tightly and trembled all over.

The next moment, Liu Taozi let go of him, opened the door, and disappeared quickly.

Kou Liu collapsed on the ground, wiping the sweat from his forehead with trembling hands.

The next day, Lu Qubing gently stroked his red forehead and complained to Liu Taozi beside him:

"My dagger was not hung securely. It fell directly on my head this morning. Fortunately, it was not unsheathed. Otherwise, I would have risked my life. I will never dare to hang it up again."

"Um."

"If there is a thief in the law school, will you be implicated?"

"Ah? Thief?"

Lu Qubing looked around and lowered his voice: "I'll tell you the truth. Don't spread these words to anyone else."

"Originally, I couldn't tell the outside world. In fact, I am not in charge of the law school at all. There is no one in charge of the law school. There is not even a law school at all!"

"At first, we all studied together, but later we were separated. I was thrown here because there was no arrangement."

"Don't talk about thieves. Even if a rebel thief emerges, it has nothing to do with me. Whoever issues the learning cards will be responsible. If he is unlucky, it will be the fat pig's unlucky one!"

Lu Qubing said enthusiastically. Judging from his expression, he seemed to wish that there would be a rebel among the students and send Fei Zongxian to the clan to kill him.

Taozi said oh but said nothing.

Taozi followed the others in line to beg for food, but Lu Qubing left.

Taozi was standing when a person slowly came over.

The person who came was none other than Kou Liu.

At this moment, he was no longer as aloof as he was a few days ago, and he looked a little embarrassed.

Tao Zi followed closely behind him, and even the old man couldn't help but take another look at him.

While eating, he squatted next to Tao Zi.

"Brother, why did you let me go?"

Tao Zi just ate her rice and ignored him at all.

Kou Liu also buried himself in his meal.

"No matter what, I will remember it, thank you."

"I will definitely repay you."

Kou Liu said very seriously.

Taozi ate the rice cleanly, then stood up, returned the rice bowl to the old official, and turned around to leave. Kou Liu just looked at his back.

"What a strange person"

When Lu Qubing returned to the school angrily, Taozi was still reading his book.

Lu Qubing sat down in front of Taozi, his expression extremely ugly.

"Taozi, someone may come looking for you."

"Since you don't want to leave, then be careful and never go out with these people."

"You study very seriously. There are only the last fifteen days left. If you get through it, just be patient."

"I'm here anyway"

Lu Qubing's meal today was not that tasty.

It was not just the fat pig thing that made Lu Qubing disgusted, but also the Xianbei man in the school.

"Brother, I exchanged some Naizi with someone. This Naizi was brought from home. I tasted one and it was pretty good. I gave it to my brother to try."

Kou Liu smiled and placed Xanazi on Taozi's bed.

Taozi said nothing, and Kou bowed and left.

Lu Qubing watched this guy leave in surprise.

"Brother Taozi! When you treat others politely, you must ask for something!"

"This person has never met you before, and he is suddenly so diligent. He must have an agenda!"
