Chapter 35 Catching a Thief
This is a family compound, and ordinary people cannot enter.
Jiang Cha calmed down, looked around, pretended not to notice anything, and turned into the house.
She took out a kitchen knife from the kitchen, held it in her hand, huddled by the door, and listened attentively to the noise outside.
The wind blows the leaves and the cicadas sing in midsummer.
Jiang Cha waited for a long time but heard no movement.
Could it be that she really saw it wrong?
Ginger Tea was a little skeptical.
No, there is a sound.
Ginger tea shifted direction.
There was a rustling sound coming from the study.
The overall layout of Room 305 is relatively square. When you enter from the main door, the living room is in the middle. The large room on the left is the wedding room of Huo Tingkun and Ye Surong. Jiang Cha's room is on the right side of the living room.
The right side is divided into two parts, the front is her room and the back is the study. The window of the study is in the same direction as the back door.
The living room is connected to the dining room, and behind it is the kitchen. There is a back door next to the kitchen. Going out of the back door is the house in the fourth row.
Jiang Cha tiptoed to the door of the study.
She did not rush in, but looked through the gap and saw that the study window was pushed open a crack. Then, a Xinhua Dictionary was stuffed in from outside the window and neatly stacked with the pile of books on the desk.
There are three people living here, Jiang Cha, Ye Surong and Huo Tingkun, all of whom use the study. If she hadn't seen someone stuffing the Xinhua Dictionary on the desk with her own eyes, she would easily have thought that the dictionary belonged to Huo Tingkun.
After all, he had just moved the things from study room 304 to study room 305 in the past two days.
At this moment, Jiang Cha rushed forward and pulled the window, and the man's hand was firmly stuck inside the window by Jiang Cha.
"ah!"
"Come quickly, someone, catch the thief!"
The man's screams and Jiang Cha's screams overlapped.
Jiang Cha held onto the window door with one hand, not daring to let go. With the other hand, he held up a kitchen knife, shouting, "Ah! Catch the thief! Catch the thief!"
Through the transparent window glass, the man outside didn't know whether he was frightened by the sudden appearance of Jiang Cha or by the shiny kitchen knife in Jiang Cha's hand. His pupils were dilated and it seemed as if he was going to faint in the next second.
"What's wrong?"
"Thief? Where did this thief come from?"
"Hey, what's going on outside?"
In just two seconds, all the lights in the houses were lit up again.
Huo Tingkun put on his clothes and rushed over first.
Seeing this, he opened the back door, stepped forward, and kicked the man accurately in the knee.
Jiang Cha then let go, and both he and the knife went limp, his soul almost leaving his body.
She really wasn't as brave as she thought.
Ye Surong came over and helped Jiang Cha up.
"Chacha, how are you? Are you okay?"
Jiang Cha shook his head blankly, "I'm fine, outside, Uncle Huo is outside."
Ye Surong helped Jiang Cha sit on the chair and hurried outside.
There was already a circle of people gathered outside. Huo Tingkun stepped on the man's back and pinned him to the ground so that he couldn't move.
"Commander Huo, is there really a thief?"
"This is a family compound. How could such a thief be so bold as to steal here?"
The commotion here soon attracted the patrol team.
Huo Tingkun handed the man over to the patrolmen.
There was a lot of chatter outside the back door. Jiang Cha raised his weak hands, picked up the Xinhua Dictionary and flipped through it quickly.
Jiang Cha flipped through a dictionary over and over again but couldn't find anything.
Huo Jingchuan squatted in front of her, grabbed her hand, and looked her up and down. After confirming that she was okay, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Because he was drunk, his reaction was indeed much slower than usual.
Jiang Cha's scream woke him up from his drunken state. When Huo Jingchuan appeared at the door of the study, he was only one-third drunk. When he saw the sharp kitchen knife at Jiang Cha's feet, he sobered up a lot.
"Why are your hands so cold? Are you scared?"
Huo Jingchuan raised his head to touch Jiang Cha's forehead worriedly, but Jiang Cha dodged him.
"It's okay, I was just scared, I'm fine now."
Jiang Cha stuffed the dictionary into Huo Jingchuan's hand.
"The person outside deliberately put this on the study table. I just looked through it and there's nothing inside."
Jiang Cha always felt something was strange. This person came to their house in the middle of the night just to leave a dictionary?
What exactly is his intention?
Jiang Cha didn't understand that such professional matters should be left to professionals.
Huo Jingchuan took the dictionary from Jiang Cha's hand and opened it. He saw the clue at a glance.
"Are you sure that this dictionary was taken by that person?"
"Sure."
Huo Jingchuan suddenly stood up. "This matter is not that simple. This dictionary contains the enemy's secret code. We have just cracked this technology. If nothing goes wrong, they want to drag our Huo family into the water."
"Enemy agents? Secret code?"
Jiang Cha pointed at the small dictionary and said, "He...is trying to kill us!"
It's just too much.
Huo Jingchuan leaned over, and the familiar aroma of soap powder mixed with a hint of alcohol swept to Jiang Cha's nose.
That overly handsome face suddenly enlarged in front of Jiang Cha's eyes.
"You don't know anything about this matter, just leave it to me."
Jiang Cha's cold hands and feet warmed up in an instant, and her heart seemed to have suddenly produced a hot spring, and the boiling hot spring water gushed out and flowed to every part of her limbs.
Huo Jingchuan's appearance was fully reflected in those extremely beautiful eyes.
Just leave it to him.
Huo Jingchuan had no idea what these five words meant to her.
Finally, she asked the question that had been lingering in her mind all day.
"Chi Jun didn't come to work today."
Huo Jingchuan stood up straight and turned his eyes away unhappily.
"He's not at work, what does it have to do with me?"
Jiang Cha looked at her pitifully.
Huo Jingchuan moved her head to vent his anger.
"I just warned his father. This matter has nothing to do with you. Do you understand?"
Huo Jingchuan turned around and was about to go out when he met Huo Tingkun who came in. Ye Surong followed beside him with her beautiful eyebrows slightly wrinkled.
"Is that man really a thief? I don't think he is. There is an iron fence outside the study window. Why didn't he pry open the door?"
The people outside had already dispersed, and the man was taken away by the patrol team and locked up in the interrogation room overnight.
"Dad, I have something to tell you."
Huo Jingchuan called out to Huo Tingkun.
Huo Tingkun's gaze then shifted from Jiang Cha to Huo Jingchuan.
Before he could speak, Ye Surong screamed.
"Jingchuan, are you injured?"
"I don't have any!"
Huo Jingchuan lowered his head and noticed a large patch of dried blood on his chest.
Jiang Cha covered his face.
How could she explain to them that this happened because her nosebleed flowed into Huo Jingchuan's chest?
Fortunately, everyone's attention was on Huo Jingchuan and no one noticed her.
Huo Jingchuan got up in a hurry and didn't realize that there was blood on his clothes on his chest.
After being reminded by Ye Surong, he lowered his head and thought for a long time, and some images emerged intermittently in his mind.
He fell to the ground and the ginger tea hit his chest.
She helped him to the bed, and then...
His head rested on her abdomen.
The soft touch seemed to be slowly rebounding to his skin after such a long time.
Huo Jingchuan's eyes gradually became deep. He glanced at Jiang Cha who was covering her face, and tried to suppress his laughter in his heart.
"I just had a nosebleed. I wiped it with clothes when I was half asleep. It's nothing serious. I'll go back and soak the clothes in cold water later."
Ye Surong finally felt relieved. "The weather is hot, and you're a boy, so you have a lot of heat. I'll make some mung bean soup tomorrow, and you can drink a bowl in the morning before going to work."
"Okay, thank you Aunt Ye."
Are you irritable?
Through her fingers, Jiang Cha saw Huo Jingchuan's playful eyes.
He...he he he...he wouldn't remember anything, right?
"What did you want to tell me just now?"
Huo Tingkun brought the topic back.
Jiang Cha dragged Ye Surong back to the room.
The wedding night turned out like this, not to mention Huo Tingkun and Ye Surong, even Jiang Cha felt disgusted.
That person must have deliberately chosen to take action tonight.
While everyone was drunk and their guard down, he slipped the dictionary into her house...
It’s terrifying when you think about it.
Jiang Cha couldn't even be sure whether this time, he was targeting them or Uncle Huo.
When Huo Jingchuan and Huo Tingkun finished their conversation, Jiang Cha had already returned to her room and locked the door.
The light in Ye Surong's room was still on, obviously she was waiting for Huo Tingkun.
Huo Jingchuan returned to Room 304. Ye Guanlan was still sleeping, and Huo Jingye was also drunk and had not woken up yet.
The ten little rabbits on the bed are neatly placed at the end of the bed. You can tell at a glance that they were carved by Jiang Cha using carrots.
The little red rabbits are oxidized in some places and have a slightly black tint. Each one is so cute and adorable.
Huo Jingchuan placed all ten rabbits on his own desk, in a long row, which was particularly spectacular.
"Where can you find such a fat rabbit?"
Like a piglet.
Huo Jingchuan placed the little rabbits one by one into a tin biscuit box with disgust and stuffed them into the drawer like treasures.
The next day at work, Chi Jun still didn't come.
Jiang Cha has successfully become friends with several girls who are good friends with Chen Feifei.
What they asked about most was the cleansing cream and Sanbai cream that Jiang Cha gave to Chen Feifei.
Jiang Cha brought back a few more business orders for Ye Surong.
It was not until the afternoon of the third day that Jiang Cha saw Chi Jun again.
On the way home from get off work, Jiang Cha had just waved goodbye to Chen Feifei. She turned left at the fork in the road and headed towards the other end of the compound.
A big hand suddenly covered her mouth and nose.
A pungent smell came, and Jiang Cha didn't even have a chance to struggle. The kettle in his hand fell to the ground with a plop, and he completely lost consciousness.
When she woke up, her body was tied up and Chi Jun was standing in front of her.
In just a few days, he seemed to have lost a lot of weight, with a gloomy face and a horsewhip in his hand, which immediately aroused the deepest fear in Jiang Cha's heart.
"What...what do you want to do?"
