In the theater, seeing Gu Linglong standing up, Chen Yurong quickly asked: "Where are you going?"
Gu Linglong mouthed: "Bathroom."
"Do you want me to accompany you?"
"No."
The play had just started and Chen Yurong was reluctant to leave. After hearing what Gu Linglong said, she just sat there and didn't move.
After coming out of the bathroom, Gu Linglong stood in front of the sink and washed her hands. Two cleaning ladies walked out of the men's bathroom carrying mops and buckets.
Gu Linglong was surprised. She walked all the way and didn't meet Xu Siqi on the way, which meant that he should still be in the bathroom.
Gu Linglong hesitated for a moment and said to the cleaning lady, "Excuse me, is there anyone inside?"
The cleaning lady said, "No."
Gu Linglong frowned and said to herself: "How is it impossible..."
Seeing that Gu Linglong didn't believe it, another cleaning lady said: "Miss, we have to ask before we go in. Every cubicle was opened just now, and there is really no one there."
The surroundings are unobstructed, and apart from the bathroom and the power distribution room at the corner, there is no other place to treat people.
Gu Linglong wanted to go back to the theater, but suddenly she heard an "ouch" sound coming from the direction of the power distribution room - Xu Siqi kicked Amao to wake up in order to find out what happened.
Gu Linglong hurried back and said to the two cleaning ladies, "I just heard that there seemed to be someone in the power distribution room."
"Miss, did you hear correctly? The power distribution room is locked."
"Really, really, I heard someone shouting... You guys, come with me and have a look?"
The two cleaning aunts looked at each other and thought that they were idle anyway, so they went over to take a closer look, lest this young lady would be surprised.
The three of them came to the door of the power distribution room and saw that the lock was placed aside. It looked like there was someone inside.
Of course, this is normal, and electricians will come to check from time to time.
"Who's in there?" a cleaning lady asked.
No one answered in the distribution room.
Gu Linglong was a little worried. Someone did shout just now. Could it be that Xu Siqi entered the power distribution room by mistake and accidentally got an electric shock...
The cleaning lady waited impatiently and reached out to open the door of the power distribution room.
The situation in the power distribution room surprised the three of them.
——Amao and Shengzi held their heads in their hands and squatted on the ground facing the wall. Xu Siqi was holding a flashlight and looking at the three people outside the door with a smile.
Soon, the guards came after hearing the news and brought a group of people into the guard room. They found iron coils and smoke bombs on Amao and Shengzi on the spot.
When he heard someone talking outside the power distribution room, Xu Siqi knew that someone must have discovered it, so he returned the two items to their original owners.
According to past practice, this kind of matter was handled privately. The fate of Amao and Shengzi was to put them in sacks and throw them directly into the Huangpu River.
Xu Siqi's behavior was a heroic one, and the theater was naturally grateful. After calling the boss for instructions, the manager took out a letter of silver dollars and gave it to Xu Siqi as a reward.
At this time, a group of Chinese police officers suddenly came, claiming that they had received reports from citizens that gangsters were deliberately causing damage to the theater, so they came to arrest them.
As one of the parties involved, Xu Siqi was of course also taken back to the patrol room.
…………
At night.
Foch Road Patrol Room.
About an hour later, a patrolman surnamed Li stepped out and said to the people waiting outside: "Please go back, Xu Siqi cannot be released for the time being."
"Why?" Zheng Zheng asked quickly.
Inspector Li said: "According to the testimonies of the other two people, Xu Siqi was the real culprit. They accidentally discovered that Xu Siqi was planning something evil. Amao and Shengzi wanted to stop them, but they were restrained by the other party and were in danger.
At the critical moment, luckily the theater security arrived in time."
Gu Linglong said anxiously: "They are shouting to catch the thief! I can testify that Xu Siqi is a good person, and those two are the criminals..."
Inspector Li smiled and said: "Miss, don't worry, we will not wrongly accuse a good person, and we will not let a bad person go. The matter is still under investigation. You can go back first."
Gu Linglong couldn't believe this result. Why did things that were so clear suddenly change their interpretation?
"Oh, by the way, there is physical evidence, haven't you seen it?" Gu Linglong reminded Inspector Li.
Inspector Li said: "There is indeed physical evidence. However, Amao and Shengzi insisted that the things belonged to Xu Siqi, not them."
Zheng Zheng didn't seem to be in a hurry and said to Gu Linglong: "Miss Gu, it's getting late. You go back first. We'll talk about anything tomorrow."
Chen Yurong on the side also advised: "Linglong, let's go. With Mr. Zheng here, everything should be fine."
Gu Linglong thought for a while, turned around and left without saying a word.
Chen Yurong hurriedly followed out.
A black car stopped on the side of the road. When they saw two people coming out of the patrol room, the driver quickly came over and said to Gu Linglong: "Miss, are you okay?"
Gu Linglong shook her head and got into the car silently.
While at the theater, Xu Siqi told what happened. With Gu Linglong's knowledge, of course she knew how serious this matter was.
The young girl Gu Linglong couldn't help but feel ripples in her heart when she saw this handsome and talkative young man...
"Miss, where are you going?" the driver asked.
The sudden sound startled Gu Linglong, who was in a state of random thoughts. Fortunately, it was at night and no one could see her blushing.
She calmed down, glanced at Chen Yurong, who was dozing next to her, deliberately raised her voice, and said to the driver: "Go home."
Hearing this sentence, Chen Yurong, who was half-awake, immediately woke up and said: "Linglong, you have gone home, what should I do?"
Gu Linglong smiled: "I'm teasing you, I think you're anxious."
Chen Yurong muttered and said: "Can't you be in a hurry? You live on Xiafei Road and I live on Xiaodongmen. You are home, why don't you let me walk back by myself?"
"Okay, stop complaining, there is no sense of humor at all... Gu Linglong smiled for a while and said to the driver: "Ah Shui, go to Xiaodongmen and take Miss Chen home first."
The car turned around and drove towards Xiaodongmen.
Chen Yurong sighed and said: "Oh, I didn't finish the drama. I stayed in the patrol room for most of the day. It's really unlucky... However, looking at the gentle and gentle Xu Siqi, I didn't expect him to be so powerful. He arrested two people by himself. Linglong
, where did you meet?”
"Yu Rong, are you not sleepy anymore?" Gu Linglong deliberately changed the topic.
"I'm not sleepy anymore... Oops, that's bad!"
"what happened again?"
"I was in such a hurry when I came out just now that I forgot to return it to them..."
Chen Yurong was holding the book "The Story of the Stone" in her hand. When she was in the theater, she stuffed it into her bag and didn't think about it until now.
