Chapter 388 Cutting the Red Rope
The three people hiding in the toilet held their breath and sneaked out with mosquito bites all over their bodies.
Guo Xia cursed under her breath, "It stinks."
We were originally planning to start at around nine o'clock, but we were delayed again because the Xie family went out.
In the end, I had to squat in the toilet until eleven o'clock, it was smelly and stuffy.
Cui Yimin hissed, "Keep your voice down."
He didn't look very good either.
The third bad guy fell behind and grabbed his hair tightly with his hands.
I always feel like I have lice on my head, and it itches all over my body.
Guo Xia and Cui Yimin walked in front with big strides, and the people behind them had not caught up for a long time.
He urged: "Liming, hurry up and catch up."
"Here I come."
The third bad guy limped behind, frowning.
His leg has never healed since it was bitten by the white cat.
But it has been more than a week now, and apart from the pain in my legs, I don't have any major health problems.
I just applied some medicine and didn't take it seriously.
Money is tight now, so he'd better save as much as possible before he gets the treasure of his family.
Guo Xia fiddled with it for a few times but couldn't open it: "The door is locked."
He looked so gloomy that he wanted to kick the door down.
"Use this."
San Naozi took out a thin wire from his trouser pocket.
In the past, he often used this to open the door in order to steal lard scraps from the kitchen.
My skills were a bit rusty, and after fiddling with it several times, I finally managed to open it. I opened the door and tiptoed in.
I didn't hear the cat meowing and breathed a sigh of relief.
It was worth it for them to throw cat food laced with knockout drugs in the alley for several days in a row.
Without these little beasts that bark and bite to cause trouble, I will definitely get something good tonight.
Not only he thought so, Guo Xia and Cui Yimin also thought so.
The three of them were in a good mood, and Guo Xia even gave the three bad guys a good look.
The third bad guy came in with a silly smile on his face, didn't see the road carefully, and almost fell flat on his face.
Cui Yimin was afraid of waking people up, so he gritted his teeth and used his flesh as a cushion underneath, and his lumbar spine was almost broken.
The two men fell to the blue brick floor with a dull thud.
There was a slight sound of turning over in the inner room, and Guo Xia's heart was lifted up.
For a moment in the darkness, the three of them dared not breathe. They held their breath, their faces swollen like pig livers.
Embarrassing and awkward.
After waiting for an exceptionally long minute, there was no more noise in the house, and the three of them finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Sannozi and Cui Yimin climbed up from the ground with soft hands.
Guo Xia pushed aside the three bad guys who were in the way, helped the man up, and felt that her hands were sticky.
"Yimin, your knees!"
"It's no problem."
Cui Yimin looked unhappy and wiped the wound on his leg with his clothes.
San Nuozi looked gloomy as he saw that Guo Xia didn't even ask about his injury.
Before he could feel sad about the passing of time, Guo Xia pulled him to work at the second door.
There is a partition wall between the convenience store and the inner room, which also has a single wooden door.
The third bad guy used the same trick again and continued to pry the door with wire.
The wire left red marks on the palms of my hands, which were painful and itchy. Fortunately, I finally opened the door lock before the wire broke.
The three of them became even more excited, their breathing quickening.
Cui Yimin swallowed and signaled Guo Xia to start.
Guo Xia walked silently. In the past, when she was at Shao's house, she always walked ahead to scout around.
Gently push open the door to the inner room. The old-fashioned door hinges always make a strange squeaking sound when opening and closing for a long time.
It just so happened that Xie Yi had replaced the door hinge a while ago, and now there is no sound when opening the door.
Unexpectedly, it made it easier for the three thieves to commit crimes.
She walked in quietly, without making any rash moves. She calmed herself down and began to look around the room.
There wasn't much in the room. There was a bed against the wall, a large wardrobe and a bedside table.
The window on the east side was open, and the moonlight shone in, making the room somewhat bright.
The third uncle was sleeping on his side, snoring softly and breathing evenly.
You can tell at a glance that he's fast asleep.
Guo Xia breathed a sigh of relief and waved towards the door. The two men came in stealthily.
As soon as their eyes met, they began to search for things.
Because the inner-painted snuff bottle was relatively small, I searched through all the drawers of the cabinet, but found nothing.
Cui Yimin really wanted to curse, he hadn’t found a single penny yet.
Something is wrong. How could a family that runs a convenience store not have a penny?
San Naozi pointed at the people in the yard.
His father must have been afraid that he would come back to ask for money, so he simply left the money he had at someone else's house.
Why guard against his own son when there are so many people to guard against?
Guo Xia was so angry that her heart ached: "This old man is not going to die!"
Cui Yimin glared at her and signaled her to continue.
San Naozi also understood what he meant: once the treasure is found, this little money will be nothing.
I searched all over the wardrobe, but there was no mezzanine.
San Naozi was looking for something under the bed with his butt sticking out, when suddenly his pants were pulled a few times.
When I crawled out, I saw Cui Yimin pointing at the person sleeping on the bed.
I don’t know when the third uncle turned over again, this time sleeping on his back, with a red rope hanging from his collar.
The three of them were overwhelmed with emotion. It turned out that it was here. They finally found it.
San Naozi's eyes were full of brilliance and he suddenly became excited.
I couldn't wait to take the thing off and put it in my pocket.
His father's things will be his sooner or later, so there's no big deal in taking them and using them earlier.
But if this thing is hung around a person's neck, it will be discovered if the hands or feet are a little heavy.
Cui Yimin gestured with scissors.
Guo Xia gently opened the drawer of the bedside table and found something inside. She handed it to San Naozi.
Cui Yimin also came over, and the three of them occupied three sides of the bed.
His eyes were fixed on the object on the third uncle's neck.
San Naozi held a pair of scissors in his hand, held his breath, and slowly approached his father's neck with trembling hands.
The shadow cast on the wall looked particularly hideous.
Maybe this pair of scissors has been used for a long time, and the blade is a little blunt, so I couldn't cut it completely after several attempts.
San Nuozi was sweating with anxiety.
He gritted his teeth and slowly used a blunt blade to cut the red rope that was woven together from several strands of red thread.
He thought that all his patience in this life had been used up on this.
At the same moment the red rope was cut, Cui Yimin accurately caught the falling snuff bottle.
The three of them breathed a sigh of relief, wiped the sweat from their foreheads, and prepared to evacuate.
Guo Xia was the first to leave the house and waited at the door for the two to come out.
Just as San Naozi was about to turn around and leave, someone suddenly grabbed his hand, which was cold.
In that instant, my soul was scared out of my wits.
He instinctively clenched the scissors in his other hand.
Cui Yimin's eyes were wide open, his upper and lower rows of teeth were clenched tightly, and his whole body, even his cheeks, were gathering strength.
In the darkness, the third uncle closed his eyes and said, "My dear..."
The voice was clear with a drawl, and there were tears in the corners of his eyes.
What’s strange is that after the shout, the person remained silent for a while.
San Naozi's body was as soft as noodles, leaning against the wardrobe behind him, with no strength left in his body.
He slid down and fell on his butt, his chest shaking violently.
