Chapter 116 All emptied
"Then brother, let's hurry up."
The tall man said in an impatient tone.
The shorter man jumped up and hit the taller man hard on the back of the neck: "Keep your voice down, you bastard."
The suddenness of the attack did not cause the tall man to react at all. He just shrank his neck and kept silent obediently.
…
Gu Wanxing in the space was learning traditional Chinese characters very seriously. There were many ancient books on the bookshelf that she wanted to read, so she would look through the old version of the dictionary whenever she had time.
I watched it until after twelve o'clock before going to bed.
This time the bed curtains were changed to green. Her predecessors left behind bed curtains of various colors, and she would change the color when she wanted to change her mood.
Lying on the bed and looking at the ceiling, this feeling of peace and security is really great.
A dreamless night.
The streets are empty and quiet in the early morning, with only the occasional ringing of bells heralding the beginning of a new day.
Gu Wanxing got up early, went out early, and walked to the market.
I had just arrived at the market and bought two fried cakes when I heard several people talking about how there had been a thief in the market last night.
And they were all emptied out.
When Gu Wanxing heard this, he didn't react at first, but suddenly he thought of his own calamity-inducing constitution...
Her heart skipped a beat, and she hadn't even sweated while walking, but suddenly she broke out in a cold sweat on her back.
He didn't even bother to eat the fried cakes and hurried to the east.
Along the way, she was observing the surrounding vendors. They were all busy as usual and there was no congestion at any of their stalls.
There is no need to think about it, it is definitely yours.
Sure enough, she saw many people standing above her head from a distance, and Zhang Xiumei's crying and high-pitched cursing voice also reached her ears.
"Please move aside, please move aside." Gu Wanxing had to raise the things in his hands above his head and shouted loudly as he walked inside.
Otherwise there will be no gap at all.
Everyone here knew her, and when they saw her coming, they spontaneously made way for her when she called out.
However, everyone looked at her with sympathy in their eyes, especially Sister Wonton, whose eyes were red. She knew how difficult it was for Gu Wanxing, and she was probably going to lose a lot of money after this.
Gu Wanxing finally entered the house.
Their eyes met, and Zhang Xiumei's bewildered expression suddenly seemed to find its backbone. She ran forward in a trance:
"Wow - Wanxing, what should we do? Our store was robbed, those two packages of goods and our paint were taken away, wow wow - I got a new lock, wow, your bike is gone too."
Gu Wanxing: ...
She looked around and felt more and more aggrieved. She even had the urge to curse like Zhang Xiumei.
Suddenly, someone in the crowd said indifferently:
"Forget it, forget it. It's just a waste of money to avoid disaster. It's already like this. I can only accept it. As long as the person is fine, that's all."
"Yeah, this damn thief, you said you took the paint, aren't you afraid of being struck by lightning?"
The entrance was quite narrow, causing the onlookers to crowd in there. They didn't come in, but they all leaned on the door frame to watch the fun.
At a glance, some looked gloating, some were worried, and some were scared. I guess they were lucky they didn't go to his store.
Zhang Xiumei heard the sound and suddenly raised her head. She pinched her waist and pointed at the door, cursing angrily, "So it wasn't you who were robbed, but you're talking without any pain in your back, right? You can't stand seeing other people's things being better than you. You look at us making money like we're eating pickled cucumbers. Don't think I don't know what's in your heart. I hope you get robbed every day from now on. Get out of here, all of you——"
Gu Wanxing bit her lower lip tightly, pinched her waist speechlessly, walked around the empty room, and was so angry that she laughed.
They took it away really cleanly, even the broom was taken away except for two roller brushes that were dripping with paint.
The person at the door was driven away by Zhang Xiumei. She went to the door again and carefully examined the lock. It was a large copper lock, brand new and shiny, with three brand new keys hanging on it.
This should be the lock that Zhang Xiumei opened with the key.
"What should we do? Wanxing?"
Zhang Xiumei was in tears and looked at Gu Wanxing in panic, seeming to want to say something but stopping herself.
This was the first time her sister arranged for her to do something, but she didn't expect something like this to happen. What if her sister asked her to pay compensation?
The goods are all sold out, so what are they selling during this period?
Gu Wanxing was not at all moved by her crying. It was not that he blamed her, but he was simply not in the mood.
"Was this door locked when you came? Tell me the details. By the way, did you call the police?"
Zhang Xiumei blinked in confusion. "I forgot to call the police. The door was locked when I came. But when I locked the door last night, the lock cylinder was facing down. When I came this morning, the lock was sideways."
Upon hearing this, Gu Wanxing hurriedly checked the door nose. It was not a big deal, as there were obvious signs of it being twisted.
The door nose is fixed with four screws. All the door locks here are like this. In fact, in order to prevent this situation from happening, there are people on duty in other stores.
She was negligent yesterday...
"Look here"
Zhang Xiumei looked down and saw the obvious marks of twisting, and immediately burst out with output again.
"I'm going to call the police. You just watch here." Gu Wanxing didn't know how to describe her mood at the moment. She was very irritable, and an inexplicable fire was running through her body.
The angrier she was, the calmer her expression became, so Zhang Xiumei had no idea and felt very guilty.
She blew her nose and looked at her expressionless sisters:
"I'll go with you." Zhang Xiumei thought to herself that her sister must hate her to death.
Gu Wanxing knew that this situation would not be avoided no matter who locked the door, so it could only be said that they were being targeted.
Otherwise, it would be impossible for the goods to be stolen as soon as they were put in.
Seeing that her sisters didn't say anything, Zhang Xiumei was about to cry again:
"Wanxing, I'm sorry. I really didn't expect it. If I had known, I would have pushed you over there last night."
Gu Wanxing was in no mood to coax her now. She was more upset than her, so she said unhappily, "Stop crying. Let's go quickly. Maybe if we go earlier, we can find the thief sooner."
The tone was so impatient that Zhang Xiumei stopped crying instantly.
She glanced at her sister secretly, and seeing her sister's eyes were cold and chilling, she nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes, yes, let's go, let's call the police quickly, I'll lock the door."
Gu Wanxing is now on the verge of becoming irritable. She dislikes everyone she sees on the street and even thinks that the vendors around her who don't like her are jealous of her and steal her goods.
As soon as this idea came to mind, it was like wild weeds growing wildly, instantly filling my entire heart, so I observed very carefully along the way.
When I passed by Baldy's stall, he and his wife were hanging clothes outside.
After Bald Li Guanghui was taught a lesson by Mu Nanxu last time, he rarely approached Gu Wanxing.
But today, when he saw the two dejected people, his face suddenly broke into a smile like a big chrysanthemum.
"Hey? Sister Gu, Sister Zhang, where are you going?"
He even stopped what he was doing and ran to the front of the stall, blocking the two of them.
"Get out of my way. A good dog doesn't block the road."
Zhang Xiumei had no place to vent her anger, and when she saw him coming forward, she was immediately furious.
"No, Sister Zhang, I just want to ask you how you feel about having a shop. If it's good, I'll rent one too."
Li Guanghui had a face full of gloating, and the corners of his mouth seemed to be grinning almost to his ears.
"I think you're just a mouse licking a cat's pussy looking for excitement. I'll let you show off."
Zhang Xiumei raised her hand and gave the little bald guy a big slap in the face.
Snap——
The world was quiet, and the busy lady at the stall next to her slowed down her movements and looked over here.
