Zhu Pingan slowly came to Manager Liu, raised his eyebrows slightly, and asked softly, pretending to be curious.
"Master Xiao Zhu." Manager Liu saluted Zhu Ping'an, and then said with a look of shame, "Hey, Mr. Liu's management is so poor that he unexpectedly came up with such a thing, which made Master Xiao Zhu laugh...
..."
Then, Manager Liu recounted the whole story.
The incident originated from the day before yesterday. The mansion rewarded each of the new maids with a piece of silk cloth. Zhang Xiyue and Li Caifeng, the new maids, all received a piece of silk cloth from the storehouse. Among them, Zhang Xiyue and Li Caifeng received a piece of silk cloth.
The cloth is all in peach pattern, and the other silk cloths received by the maid are in other patterns.
Six maids, including Zhang Xiyue and Li Caifeng, were in the same room. The silk cloths they received were all locked in the cabinet in the room. The cabinet was shared by the maids. There were two keys, one held by Zhang Xiyue and one held by Zhang Xiyue.
Li Caifeng is in charge.
At noon today, the maids were measured and made by the maids. The maids made an appointment to ask the maids to make extra outfits with the gifted silk cloth. When they opened the cabinet to get the silk cloth, everyone found peach pattern silk in the cabinet.
There was only one piece of cloth left, and the other piece was missing.
The lock was intact and there was no sign of the cabinet being broken into, so there was only one possibility - someone opened the cabinet with a key and took away a piece of peach-pattern silk cloth.
Both Zhang Xiyue and Li Caifeng said that the remaining piece of silk cloth belonged to them, and accused the other party of using the key to open the cabinet and stealing the other piece of peach pattern silk cloth. Both sides held different opinions and argued endlessly. Several people supported it.
They testified.
Finally, the trouble came to Manager Liu.
That's when the scene before me happened.
"Hey, the silk fabrics they received were all peach-patterned. There were only two keys to the cabinet, which happened to be kept by the two of them. The locks were intact, and there were no signs of the cabinet being broken into. It could only be one of the two of them.
One of the people opened the cabinet with a key and took away the silk cloth. However, I asked someone to ask the guard at the second door and the main gate, but no one had ever gone out with the silk cloth. Liu was really at a loss...
"
Manager Liu frowned and shook his head with a grimace, unable to do anything.
"Oh, that's it." Zhu Pingan nodded slowly.
"Manager Liu, I..."
At this moment, a woman's voice came from the door of the west courtyard, and then an old woman walked out quickly.
After seeing Zhu Pingan, the old woman apologized and bowed. Zhu Pingan smiled and waved his hand, indicating that it was okay.
"Just now, according to your instructions, Manager Liu, I went to their room and searched their luggage boxes, but I couldn't find the missing piece of silk." The old nanny came to Manager Liu and said in a low voice.
No stolen goods were found, and yet another effort failed.
After hearing the old lady's reply, Manager Liu frowned even more. How could he resolve this case?
"Master Zhu."
At this time, an official passed by and headed outside the mansion. He greeted Zhu Pingan as he passed by.
"Manager Liu, this case must be settled quickly. There are so many people coming and going here. It's not good to see the impact."
After the official left, Zhu Pingan took the opportunity to remind Manager Liu.
"Master Xiao Zhu, I also want to close the case, but how can I resolve this case..." Manager Liu's face wrinkled into a bitter gourd, he shook his head and poured a lot of bitter water on Zhu Ping'an, "The two of them will lead
The silk fabrics are all peach-patterned, and only the two of them have the key to the cabinet in the room, and there are people who can testify for them..."
All the ways to solve the case were blocked. In Manager Liu's opinion, the silk cloth case had no solution and was about to become an unsolved case.
to be honest
The maids present also agreed with Manager Liu and felt that this was going to be another confusing case.
"It's actually not difficult..."
Zhu Pingan twitched the corners of his lips slightly, showed a confident smile, and said softly to Manager Liu.
What?
It's not difficult, Master Zhu said it's not difficult.
When Manager Liu heard this, he opened his mouth in surprise at first, and then looked at Zhu Pingan with joy.
Mr. Xiao Zhu is Mr. Xiao Zhu. So many of us racked our brains all afternoon and couldn't figure out anything. But Mr. Xiao Zhu just listened to what I said and found a solution. No wonder Mr. Xiao Zhu became a fifth-grade officer at a young age.
Woolen cloth.
At this moment, Zhu Ping'an's image was extremely high in the eyes of Manager Liu.
The maids present also looked up at Zhu Ping'an curiously, and they all reflected on themselves. It's true that a person is beyond his appearance. This Master Xiao Zhu looked honest and honest, but they didn't expect to be so powerful. In their eyes, this
For a moment, Zhu Ping'an seemed to have transformed into Zhuge Liang with a feather fan and silk scarf.
"Please give me your advice, Mr. Xiao Zhu." Manager Liu hurriedly bowed to Zhu Ping'an and asked for advice.
"Haha, since we can't solve the problem, we might as well change our thinking and get rid of the person who asked the question. Then the problem will disappear..." Zhu Pingan squinted his eyes and replied with a smile.
ha?
When Manager Liu, who was full of expectations, heard this, he was stunned by Zhu Ping'an's method.
Get rid of the person who asked the question?!
The maids present were frightened and looked at Zhu Pingan tremblingly like a group of rabbits.
"Haha, just kidding." Zhu Pingan laughed.
"Master Xiao Zhu..." Manager Liu looked at Zhu Ping'an dumbfounded.
"Okay, let's get down to business." Zhu Ping'an smiled slightly, clasped his hands on his chest, looked around everyone, paused for a moment at the innocent maid Zhang Xiyue and the charming maid Li Caifeng, and said slowly: "Since you all said this
The silk cloth belongs to you, and everyone has testified for you, and no one has seen you stealing the silk cloth. In addition, it is not ruled out that a third person took your keys, opened the cabinet and stole the silk cloth when you were not paying attention.
...... I think it's good to be clear of guilt. Manager Liu, could you please find someone to cut the silk cloth in the middle and divide it into two parts. Each of you two will have half of the silk cloth. That's all right.
.”
Is this okay?
When Manager Liu heard this, he was stunned for a moment. He felt a sense of disappointment in his heart. He thought that Zhu Pingan would come up with a way to enlighten him, but he didn't expect it to be such a smooth method. The gap was too big and he was a little disappointed.
But after thinking for a moment, Manager Liu nodded again.
This is indeed feasible, and it is a good way to solve the problem when you are desperate.
Um.
Calm things down.
The more Manager Liu thought about it, the more he thought it was feasible, so he followed Zhu Ping'an's instructions and had someone cut the silk cloth into two parts with scissors, and gave one half to the innocent maid Zhang Xiyue, and the other half to the charming maid Li Caifeng.
So, the case was settled.
Zhang Xiyue and Li Caifeng had no choice but to go back with half of the silk cloth each. The maids rolled their eyes on the way back. They thought it was Zhuge Liang, but they only guessed the beginning correctly, and it turned out to be just a pig!
"The case is finally over, thank you Mr. Xiao Zhu." Manager Liu thanked Zhu Pingan after the maids left.
"It's over?"
Zhu Ping'an couldn't help but laugh.
"ha?"
Manager Liu was stunned again, what do you mean, what happened to Mr. Zhu?
"Manager Liu, separate them and arrange them to work in different places, and then let people observe them secretly. The sad and angry ones are the owners of the silk cloth. Just arrest the happy ones..."
Zhu Ping'an patted Manager Liu on the shoulder, said lightly, then turned and walked away, hiding his merit and fame.
Manager Liu was shocked when he heard this.
moment
Enlightenment.
He turned around suddenly, and then only saw Zhu Ping'an's retreating back. Under the light of his eyes, he looked so majestic and unpredictable.
