Chapter 325 There’s a Thief in My House

Zhao Pingan frowned, somewhat dissatisfied. Why is this woman causing trouble? I thought I had caught the thief.

Seeing him frowning and not saying anything, Jiang Mengqiu raised her hands behind her back with tears in her eyes: "Brother Ping'an, my hands hurt so much!"

Chu Peipei sighed and said, "It's definitely not her. Untie her."

Zhao Pingan muttered reluctantly: "Even if it's not her, we can't rule out that she has nothing to do with this matter. Maybe she is an accomplice who came back to find out the situation?"

Hu Cuilan also said: "Yes, she always wanted to come to our house secretly to inquire."

Chu Peipei glanced at Jiang Mengqiu and said, "It should have nothing to do with her. If she was an accomplice, they would have sent that skilled woman over long ago and would not have let her do useless work over and over again."

Zhao Pingan thought about it and said, "That's right."

Then he added: "But even if she is not an accomplice, she must have other purposes."

After a while, Jiang Mengqiu understood what happened and immediately replied with grievance:

"Brother Ping An, you really misunderstood me. I have no ill intentions. I just want to make friends with you."

The handcuffs were so tight that her wrists hurt, and she kept her hands behind her back, feeling like a criminal and very ashamed.

There was a hint of tears in her voice: "Please let me go first!"

Zhao Pingan hesitated for a while, and finally uncuffed her. But at the same time, the three of them stared at her cautiously, ready to take action at any time if things went wrong.

Jiang Mengqiu flexed his red wrists and wanted to say something else, but was interrupted by Hu Cuilan:

"Since this is just a misunderstanding, please leave as soon as possible!"

Jiang Mengqiu pretended not to hear and continued rubbing his wrist with his head down.

It had been over a month since she had managed to get into the house. How could she just leave like that? If she wanted to get in again, she might not have the chance to do so again.

So he rubbed his wrist and tried to find a topic: "Is there a thief in your house?"

Hu Cuilan frowned: "What does it have to do with you?"

In order to stay, Jiang Mengqiu had to lie: "Someone has entered our house, and I came here just to tell you about this."

Chu Peipei was surprised: "A thief broke into your house too?"

Hu Cuilan was still on guard: "Then why didn't you say anything just now?"

Jiang Mengqiu said aggrievedly: "You just tied me up and I didn't even have a chance to speak!"

Hu Cuilan stared at her and said, "Since there's someone in the house, why are you coming to our place instead of staying at home properly?"

Jiang Mengqiu pouted: "Didn't I tell you that I want to make friends with you? In this world, it's hard to stand alone. Now that I've found someone with bad intentions, of course I have to come over to warn my neighbors!"

Hu Cuilan had no intention of being friends with her. She had lived so long, what kind of people had she not seen? This girl wanted to make three little movements every time she spoke, twisting and turning, flirting, and it was obvious that she was not a down-to-earth person.

She frowned, intending to ask about the matter clearly, and then she chased the man away: "Then tell me about your family's situation. Do you know who the other party is? What is their purpose?"

Jiang Mengqiu pounded his waist, turned to Zhao Ping'an and said coquettishly: "Ouch, Brother Ping'an, your hands are too strong, my waist hurts so much!"

Then he smiled and said to Hu Cuilan: "Auntie, let's sit down and talk! My waist hurts so much."

Having said that, without waiting for anyone to reply, he walked straight to the sofa and sat down.

The other three looked at each other and followed suit, but they all kept a safe distance from Jiang Mengqiu. Hu Cuilan even deliberately sat between her son and the woman to separate them.

Chu Peipei looked at Jiang Mengqiu and said, "Tell me what happened?"

Jiang Mengqiu said casually: "Someone entered our yard and peeked through the window. I got scared. I shouted and he ran away immediately."

In order to stay at Zhao Ping'an's house and chat with them, she could only talk nonsense like this. Unexpectedly, she hit the mark.

But until now, she didn't know that someone had really entered her yard. And he watched her and Wei Yang's "performance" for a while.

Zhao Pingan looked at her and asked, "How did that person get into the yard, and how did he escape?"

Jiang Mengqiu was stunned. Why did you ask such detailed questions?

The high wall of her house came to her mind. It was so high that she could not climb in. Besides, she had just said that the other party ran away as soon as she shouted. Could it be that he flew out of the yard?

So I could only say, "I forgot to lock the door. The man slipped into the yard, and after hearing my shout, he immediately opened the gate and ran out."

The other three looked at each other and said nothing.

Jiang Mengqiu felt a little nervous when she saw that they were silent. She wondered if they could see anything.

But then I thought, there is no surveillance here, and there is no way to verify the facts, so it doesn't matter what she says.

Then he straightened his back again and continued to flirt with Zhao Ping'an.

Zhao Pingan frowned: "Is there something wrong with your eyes?"

Jiang Mengqiu was stunned for a moment, a little embarrassed: "No..."

Zhao Ping'an still stared at her and said, "I think your eyes don't seem normal."

Jiang Mengqiu: ...

Hu Cuilan held back her laughter and leaned forward, blocking Jiang Mengqiu's line of sight from looking at her son, and asked her, "What does that person look like?"

Jiang Mengqiu replied without hesitation: "I didn't see it clearly."

Chu Peipei at the side said: "Didn't you say you were frightened by her? How come you didn't even see her face clearly?"

Jiang Mengqiu pouted: "I was nervous at the time! And I'm a little face-blind, so I'm not very good at remembering faces. Hmm... it seems like the lips are quite thick?"

Chu Peipei frowned. The woman who was flying over the eaves and walls was obviously wearing a gas mask, so how could her lips be seen?

Hu Cuilan gave Jiang Mengqiu a meaningful look and said, "You can see how she dresses, right? I can't remember her appearance, but I definitely have a general impression of her."

Jiang Mengqiu thought for a moment and made up a standard answer: "He was dressed quite simply, neither tall nor short, and neither fat nor thin."

He paused and emphasized, "It's a woman."

After saying this, he was still feeling smug in his heart. Since these three people thought he was the thief, it meant that the thief must be a woman. His answer was simply perfect.

The other three looked at each other.

This little star is clearly talking nonsense. Except for the gender, everything else is wrong.

Of course, we cannot rule out the possibility that the crime was committed by more than one person and that the person who broke into the two homes was not the only one involved.

Zhao Pingan thought for a moment and asked, "Did you hear any noise coming from my yard?"

Jiang Mengqiu recalled it for a moment and shook his head, "No."

This time she really didn't lie.
