"Excuse me, Granny Ajia, let me answer the phone."
Quickly walking aside, I lowered my voice and asked, "Brother Liu, I'm busy. Have you found out who is the mole?"
On the other end of the phone, Liu Yuanning also lowered his voice and said: "The investigation is almost done."
I sneered: "Let me guess, it was Yan'er who did it?"
Liu Yuanyin's voice on the other end sounded surprised. He said, "Why do you think it was Yan'er who did it?"
"Is not it?"
"No," Liu Yuanning said angrily: "You have suspected the wrong person. I know very well that Yan'er doesn't value my money when she is with me, she values me as a person! According to my investigation in the past two days, my money should be
Before I went to your place, I was transferred by someone, and I suspect it was done by Fat Catfish!"
“Who is Fat Catfish?”
"He was a local businessman. I met him at the hotel that afternoon. My money box was hidden in the car at that time! No wonder... that guy was always stalling for time, asking me to stay a little longer."
"Afterwards, Fat Catfish's phone number couldn't be reached. I contacted several local friends but couldn't find him. Damn it, he probably ran away."
"Brother Liu, what are you going to do next?"
"How to do it....."
Liu Yuanning's tone on the phone gradually became colder. He whispered: "Fat Catfish is unethical. Damn it, he dares to blackmail my money like this... He is dead! I asked a big brother to help, and the other party
Promise to help me get the money back within a week."
"Okay, we'll have the interview then. I'm still busy here, so I'll hang up first."
Putting away my phone, I ran over and continued to accompany the old lady.
Maybe it’s been too long since Guozhuang has had visitors, or maybe she thinks I’m a hotel guest. Anyway, the old lady keeps talking about the glorious history of Guozhuang, which makes my head buzz.
I'm not from her era, so I can't empathize with her! I couldn't bear it any more, so I could only excuse myself and leave.
The old lady and the old man came out to see me off. The old man held a lantern in his hand. They leaned against the door and looked at me and smiled.
Watching the door close, I squatted on the ground and smoked a cigarette, got up, wrapped my clothes tightly, and walked around to the back of the old house.
I brought a stone and stepped on it, climbed up the fence, and then climbed from the fence to the roof.
Walking on the roof is a technical job. If you want to avoid making any noise, you have to take small steps close to the eaves. You need to be careful not to step on the ground and fall.
Walking from the east wing to the west wing, I lay on the roof, put my ear to the ground, and listened carefully to what was going on in the room.
The old man and the old lady were talking in the room.
"Jiawa, have you ever leaked any information to the outside world?"
"Miss, I have never told anyone about it. I don't know how that boy knew that our Bao family still has those things."
"Miss, I'm afraid it won't be safe in the future. Do you want me to dig it out and change it to another place?"
"Don't act rashly. That kid is very naughty. He doesn't look like a good person at first glance. If he comes back tomorrow, I will grind him for a few days to see if I can grind him away."
"Jiawa, I can't remember clearly. Is tomorrow Saturday or Sunday?"
"Miss, tomorrow is Sunday."
"Oh, it's Sunday, so Xiaoshu Bao is coming to see me tomorrow."
"It's Miss. I have prepared things for entertaining."
"Well, Jiawa, come here and help me squeeze my feet."
"Miss, I...I'm already old, and I'm afraid my health will fail."
"Haha..." I heard the old lady in the room laugh and say: "As you get older, you have your own ways of doing things. Whether your body is okay or not, it's not you who has the final say, it's me."
Then the candles in the room were extinguished and they were plunged into darkness.
I hid on the roof and was dumbfounded.
You know something is weird!
It turns out that the two of them still have this secret relationship. It sounds like the treasure is buried somewhere?
Also, who is the little schoolbag the old lady is talking about?
I quietly retreated and found a corner to spend the night.
Early the next morning, I took a ride back to the county hotel.
I first reported the latest situation at Liu Yuanning's side to the boss, and then told me about Guozhuang.
He raised his head and asked in confusion: "Are you sure this family really has something from the palace?"
"Make sure you take the lead! I heard the old lady admit it last night! She said she buried it somewhere and hid it!"
"Then what are you going to do?"
"Don't steal or rob, look for the opponent's weaknesses! Try to get the thing!"
"Well...just be careful. There is still time. We have a lot of things to do, but we don't have much time."
"Get the idea."
I took a shower in the hotel, then rented a second-hand car, bought two barrels of peanut oil, and went to Baojia Guozhuang.
