Chapter six hundred and seventy seventh den of thieves
Mo Xi and I first checked the house number and after confirming that this was Wang Xiaobao's home, we immediately knocked on the door. But what surprised us was that after knocking on the door for a long time, we couldn't hear anyone in Wang Xiaobao's yard at all.
Half a reaction.
Because we already know that many people have come to see Wang Xiaobao recently, we cannot judge whether there is really no one at Wang Xiaobao's home, or whether they are deliberately pretending to be no one at home in order to avoid the reporters who frequently come to their home.
I don't have time, so I can't wait to judge what the situation is. Seeing that the courtyard wall of Wang Xiaobao's house is not high, I want to climb over the wall and go in to have a look.
But just when I climbed to the top of the courtyard wall, two aunts suddenly appeared in a house next to Wang Xiaobao's house. As soon as these two aunts appeared, they rushed to Mo Xi and pointed at my
The nose told me to come down quickly.
Seeing this, I couldn't just ignore them, so I had to climb down from the wall.
As soon as I landed, an aunt asked me: "Who are you? What are you doing here? Are you here to steal things?"
I hurriedly explained: "I'm sorry, you misunderstood. We are police officers and we came to see the Wang family for something." After that, in order to prove my identity, I also showed the other party my ID card from the Ministry of Public Security.
Take a look.
"Police, police?!" I don't know whether it was out of fear or some other reason. After the other party found out who Mo Xi and I were, they were so nervous that they couldn't even say anything. One of the aunts even turned around and thought
She left, but was held tightly by another aunt beside her, so she had to stay in place.
The two of them calmed down for a while, then took a deep breath and asked us: "You, why did you come to the Wang family? Is there something wrong with their family?"
"No, we are actually not looking for the Wang family, but Wang Xiaobao." I said.
When they heard that I was looking for Wang Xiaobao, the expressions of these two people suddenly relaxed. The aunt who had wanted to escape before took the initiative to say: "So you are looking for Xiaobao? He is just a child.
, why are you looking for him?"
Another aunt said at this time: "You guys, couldn't they have asked Xiaobao to give a speech?"
"He is a policeman. Even if Xiaobao is the top scholar, it is impossible for him to give a speech to the police, right?"
"It's hard to say. Maybe they just want to hear Xiaobao's learning experience?"
Seeing the two aunts talking more and more enthusiastically, I quickly interrupted them and said: "I'm sorry, you two, I won't tell you the reason why we are looking for Wang Xiaobao. We have been knocking on the door for a long time, but no one from Wang Xiaobao's family came out to open the door.
What? If no one came out of their home, I wouldn’t have thought of climbing the wall to check if anyone was in their home.”
When the two aunts heard what I said, they ended the discussion and turned to me and said: "So that's it. It's a bad time for you two to come. In fact, early this morning, the Wang family went out to the county town as a group.
."
"Going to the county seat?" I asked curiously: "Do they have something to do?"
"They didn't tell us what the specific thing was..." an aunt told us rather mysteriously: "But you are lucky. When they left in the morning, I heard the conversation between their family members. I heard
Wang Xiaobao's father seems to be saying that he should be sent to the county hospital as soon as possible, because only the doctors there can save him."
"Save Xiaobao?" I suddenly thought of the three fat men's files, which mentioned that Wang Xiaobao seemed to be suffering from a sudden illness, so I asked, "Is Wang Xiaobao sick? Is he seriously ill?"
An aunt said: "We don't know about this, but recently, it seems that Xiaobao's family has been pushing a lot of invitations for interviews and speeches from news reporters. Now that I hear you say this, it's probably because Xiaobao is sick.
That’s why.”
After confirming that there was no one in Wang Xiaobao's house, I no longer wanted to stay here. After saying goodbye to the two aunts, I took Mo Xi and prepared to walk to the parking place.
As I walked, I said to Mo Xi: "It seems that the investigation of the three fat men is correct. Wang Xiaobao is ill, and I'm afraid the situation is very serious. Mo Xi, we must rush to the county seat immediately. Please help me call and check."
Check, see which hospital in the county town Wang Xiaobao is in?"
After I finished speaking, Mo Xi beside me didn't react for a long time. I turned my head and realized that Mo Xi had fallen far behind me.
I didn't know why, but she was lying in front of a house, peering through the door into the other person's yard.
I hurriedly walked over and was about to ask a question, but Mo Xi raised her hand to stop me from speaking. She waved at me, then pointed to the yard and said: "Sijiu, look at the water in their yard.
Cylinder."
Although I was a little surprised by what Mo Xi wanted me to see, out of curiosity, I still came to the courtyard gate and looked into the courtyard in the direction Mo Xi pointed.
I saw that in the corner of this family's yard, there was indeed a small water tank placed there. However, compared with the water tanks we usually see in rural areas, this water tank looks a little special, and its size
Not only is it much smaller than an ordinary water tank, the color is also a bit weird. Ordinary water tanks are usually made of pottery and look gray in appearance, but the color of this water tank is white with some blue.
Color, and there is a dragon-shaped pattern on the body of the tank.
But although I thought the water tank was a bit strange, I didn't see any problem, so I asked Mo Xi, "What's wrong with the water tank? Is there anything strange about it?"
"Of course." Mo Xi said, "Sijiu, the price of such a water tank is at least 50,000 yuan. This family actually uses such an expensive thing to store water. Haha, they really are.
What a luxury.”
"What?" I asked in surprise, "You mean that water tank is worth 50,000 yuan? What kind of water tank is this? How can it be so expensive?"
Mo Xi explained: "Because it's not a water tank at all, but a large blue and white Yunlong porcelain tank. It's an antique. This kind of thing is usually used for burials!"
"Be buried with me? Why would anyone use this thing at home?"
Because I was so surprised, I forgot to control my voice when I said this. As a result, before Mo Xi had time to answer me, the other person's exclamation was heard through the house we were peeping into.
"Who? Who's talking?"
Seeing this, Mo Xi didn't have time to say anything, so she just pulled me and ran out. However, she didn't take me to where the car was parked. Instead, she returned to the vicinity of Wang Xiaobao's house.
When we stopped to take a breath, I asked Mo Xi: "Mo Xi, why did you come back again? What if someone catches us?"
Mo Xi wiped her sweat and said, "I can't help it. There's something I have to see with my own eyes. Sijiu, you stay here to look after me. I'll go to Wang Xiaobao's house and have a look."
"Ah? What?"
Before I could stop him, I saw that Mo Xi had jumped directly onto the wall of Wang Xiaobao's house, turned over and got in, leaving me alone outside at a loss.
Fortunately, Mo Xi came out not long after entering, and after she came out, she pulled me directly and walked straight to the parking place.
On the way, I wanted to ask Mo Xi what she had just discovered. However, Mo Xi did not answer me. It was not until we got in the car that she said, "Okay, it's okay if you tell me now."
I asked strangely: "Mo Xi, why do you seem to be guarding against someone? What on earth were you doing just now?"
Mo Xi said: "You are right, I am guarding against people, and the people I am guarding against are the people in this village."
"What? What do you mean?" I asked.
Mo Xi did not answer, but asked me: "Sijiu, do you know what I found in Wang Xiaobao's yard?"
I originally wanted to answer "flowers and flowers", but suddenly I thought of what we saw in that house before, so I said, "Is it possible that you found another large porcelain jar with blue and white clouds and dragons?"
Mo Xi smiled and said, "About that. In fact, what I found in Wang Xiaobao's home was far more than that. His home is simply an archaeological base. There are many ancient porcelain bowls and other antiques piled together."
After a pause, Mo Xi continued: "In fact, I suspect that every household here has something similar in their yard. Sijiu, do you know what this means?"
I wondered: "What's the surprise?"
Mo Xi said meaningfully: "Sijiu, if I guess correctly, the village we are in now is probably a complete den of thieves! A den where tomb robbers live in groups!"
