Chapter 3 Gold Coins

Qin Xiaoxia is actually more frightened than angry right now.

There is a strange thief who can enter his house without leaving any trace, and it seems that the thief has set his sights on his house.

He came here to steal things for two consecutive days. No, it can’t be considered stealing. Even if it was only the second time, Qin Xiaoxia almost intuitively believed that the two spatulas must be hidden in some tricky corner of the house.

At present, it seems that this thief does not have much malicious intention, but he stole things and hid them, which shows that he is obviously not a mentally normal thief.

From this point of view, it is not impossible that he would come in and hack himself to death one day!

'We must call the police now!'

Life safety is more important than anything else. No matter how slow or lazy Qin Xiaoxia is, he dare not be careless after such things happened for two consecutive days.

The police arrived quite quickly, perhaps because Qing Town is not big and the police station is close. They arrived about ten minutes after the call was made.

“Ding Dong~”

When the doorbell rang, I could see through the peephole that there were two people coming, a tall and thin police officer in his forties and a policewoman.

“Crack.”

Qin Xiaoxia jumped to the door and opened it at the speed of light, which scared the policewoman.

"Comrade police, you are here! This thief has entered my house two days in a row. I don't know why. It's scary!"

"You are Mr. Qin, right? My last name is Zhao, and she is my colleague Xiao Liu. I have a general understanding of your situation, but I still have a few questions for you. If you don't mind, let's go in and talk?"

The older police officer Zhao spoke and signaled Qin Xiaoxia to calm down.

Qin Xiaoxia quickly made way and invited the person into the house.

5 minutes later.

"You mean to say that the thief came into the house just to hide your slippers and spatula?"

The female police officer asked in surprise and amusement.

"Yeah, I was also wondering, but I thought that even if they didn't steal anything, if someone could break into my house at any time, it would be a threat to my personal safety and property safety, so I called the police!"

Qin Xiaoxia was still very conflicted when he said this.

If you say something like this, the police comrades may easily think you are mentally retarded, but they cannot spread rumors about such things.

"So the one lost today was the spatula?" Officer Zhao followed Qin Xiaoxia into the kitchen, stared at the pot and asked.

"Well, the spatula, I'm sure it's in the house, hidden by the thief."

When saying this, Qin Xiaoxia himself felt something was strange. If he were a policeman, he would definitely start to suspect whether the person who reported the case was a prank or was mentally ill or something.

"Did you hide it yourself?" Officer Liu suddenly asked.

"Huh~ I finally asked the question!"

Qin Xiaoxia seemed to have prepared an answer to this question a long time ago. His face looked as if he had been greatly insulted, showing anger and disappointment.

"Do I look like such a boring person? Reporting a false crime is against the law! I have a good life and have no interest in going to the detention center. I didn't call the police yesterday because I was afraid of being suspected. I didn't expect that this thief was addicted. I called the police out of fear!"

Officer Zhao tried to smooth things over and ease the atmosphere.

"Don't get excited, Mr. Qin. Xiao Liu doesn't have enough experience. Besides, your family's situation is indeed a bit special. We also hope to find out the reason as soon as possible."

It can be seen that Officer Zhao is quite responsible. Even though Qin Xiaoxia is half illiterate about the law, he knows that such a small matter should not be filed as a case, and he can only take a look when the police go out.

The three of them checked the house carefully inside and outside, but found no means of entry such as breaking windows or picking locks.

By the way, during this period, Qin Xiaoxia specifically searched the tricky corners of the house and found two spatulas behind the water heater.

But when he found the spatula, the policewoman looked at him with a rather strange look. Yes, it was the "suspicious look" that Qin Xiaoxia thought of instantly.

After working for more than half an hour, the two policemen still failed to find any useful clues.

Qin Xiaoxia is a guy who has basically no relatives or enemies and rarely goes out. It is hard to imagine who would deliberately target him.

"Mr. Qin, I suggest you change the door lock first, and make sure the doors and windows are locked tightly when you go to bed at night. If conditions permit, install a camera at home."

Before leaving, Officer Zhao gave Qin Xiaoxia some conventional advice. Although Officer Liu tried her best to be serious, Qin Xiaoxia always felt that there was a gleam of suspicion in her eyes when she looked at him.

'Damn, I knew you wouldn't believe it!'

When the two policemen left the building, they met Gou Junbao who was coming back with the girl, which made the latter and the girl very curious about why the policemen were there.

Qin Xiaoxia hadn't closed the door for a few minutes when he heard the doorbell ring again. He opened the door and saw that it was Brother Gou who came back, and he brought a girl who was pretty good-looking with him.

"Xiaoxia, the police are coming to our building. Have you seen them?"

Qin Xiaoxia had already taken the resume from the house and handed it to Gou Junbao at the door.

"Yes, I saw it..."

"Oh, that's a dozen, thanks."

After thanking him and before Qin Xiaoxia could say anything, he saw the couple talking and laughing as they went into the house opposite, without even paying any attention to him.

'So impatient! Gou Bichi!'

"Remember to give me a red envelope for your labor fee~~"

Qin Xiaoxia had no choice but to yell at the other side to express his dissatisfaction.

"Bang~"

The door was shut heavily.

I was already in a bad mood, and being fed dog food for no reason made it even worse.

As for changing the door locks, that will be tomorrow's job. Lock the doors and windows from the inside tonight and put in the bolts, there shouldn't be any problem.

Now that the spatula has been found, the dish still needs to be cooked.

Ingredients will become stale if left for too long, and he is not so extravagant as to waste them like that.

The specialty dishes are sweet and sour pork tenderloin and pork ribs stewed with corn, plus a plate of green vegetables.

Maybe because I had consumed a lot of physical strength and energy today, I had a special appetite for dinner. I ate most of it by myself and put the rest in the refrigerator.

I cleaned up the kitchen and went back to check the computer.

I had a good harvest of all the programs set up on the laptop, and I took pictures of some best-selling items such as new multi-function routers and famous wines.

Familiar merchants will buy these things, so there is no need to worry about not being able to sell them.

I clicked on it again to see the horror short story I wrote yesterday, and found that the number of clicks was unexpectedly high, and there were even many messages asking the author to continue writing.

"It seems that you still need to experience it yourself to tell a good story~"

With this awareness, Qin Xiaoxia decisively chose to continue writing. On this website, if the traffic of short stories increases, you can make money by placing advertisements.

It was still almost twelve o'clock, so I calmed down and went to bed.

A dreamless night.

The room's windows face south and it's on the top floor, so the lighting is excellent. The morning sunlight passes through angles in invisible waves and shines on Qin Xiaoxia's face.

Qin Xiaoxia had woken up, but was still a little dazed. He vaguely felt that he was not leaning on the pillow and his neck felt a little uncomfortable.

Due to his bad sleeping posture, he was lying sideways on the bed.

With his eyes closed, he reached to the side with his right hand, felt for the pillow, and pulled it over to place under his head.

What Qin Xiaoxia didn't see was that due to the pull, something under the pillow seemed to fall under the bed due to inertia.

There was a crisp "ding~" sound, followed by a sound similar to a coin rolling on the floor.

Qin Xiaoxia subconsciously opened his eyes to see what had fallen to the ground.

Due to the reflection of the sunlight, a golden light spot rolled on the ground and fell in the corner after a few seconds.

'What?'

I don't know why my heart suddenly felt agitated and all sleepiness disappeared.

Qin Xiaoxia got up from his bed, walked quickly to the corner, bent down with confusion, and picked up a golden coin that was slightly larger and thicker than a one-yuan coin.

It was painted with patterns that looked very simple and gorgeous, and also had some unfamiliar words engraved on it.

It feels heavy in the hand and has a substantial feel.

"This thing, isn't it a gold coin?"

For some reason, this thought burst out of my mind uncontrollably the first time.
