Chapter 19 Stealing



The train that Gu Qingcheng took arrived in Jiang City at nine o'clock in the morning.

At seven o'clock, it was already light outside and the lights inside the train were on.

When Gu Qingcheng went to the toilet, he happened to pass by the conductor's duty room.

Then I heard the two conductors inside speaking in a hurry.

"What should we do? That person actually took our train."

"That would be fine, but he even lost something on our car. He's a founding marshal!"

Gu Qingcheng paused and roughly sorted out the contents, which was that the nobleman in soft sleeper car No. 3 was a founding marshal who had lost a very precious item in his life.

You have to know that most people can't afford soft sleeper rooms. The conductor said euphemistically that something was lost, but how could something just disappear on the train?

There is a high probability that it was stolen.

Gu Qingcheng also thought of this!

Countless images flashed through her mind in an instant. She wondered why the man was running around and wandering around in several carriages yesterday. It turned out that he was stealing things!

Thinking of this, Gu Qingcheng quickened his pace, walked into the carriage, and moved his eyes to the man's bed to observe his reaction.

The man had many wounds on his face, all from her beating him last night. However, he was acting out of character now, not at all as arrogant and domineering as he was yesterday. Instead, he covered his head with the quilt and continued to sleep, as if he didn't care about the wounds on his face at all.

It's obviously the same person, why is there such an obvious change?

Gu Qingcheng didn't think that he had turned over a new leaf. This kind of person is simply a dog that can't change its bad habits.

At this moment, a curious lady in the private room walked over and asked with concern: "Comrade, the wound on your face is quite serious. How did you get rid of it?"

The man was stunned for a moment, his eyes dodged as he said, "I was smoking a cigarette at the junction of the carriages last night. I didn't notice the water on the ground and slipped."

Gu Qingcheng couldn't help but look at the man with inquiry in his eyes.

This injury was clearly caused by someone beating him last night. Even if he didn't know who beat him, he wouldn't make up an excuse that he accidentally fell to the ground.

Obviously he didn't want more people to ask questions.

What is his purpose?

Gu Qingcheng's first reaction was to make a big deal out of a small matter.

The aunt didn't notice and sighed, "You are about the same age as my son. I think the wound on your face is quite serious. How about I help you go to the flight attendant's office and ask if there is any medicine. Apply it on your face and the effect will be much better."

"No need! My injury is fine!" Unexpectedly, the man's voice suddenly became louder, "Don't worry about it. I know my own injury well."

The aunt was also annoyed now: "How come you can't tell the difference between good and bad words?"

After saying that, I didn't care anymore and just thought of it as the result of meddling in other people's business.

Gu Qingcheng withdrew her gaze with interest. The report on the radio was still sounding, and she had a suspicion in her mind.

It's this rogue man.

According to the temperament of this scoundrel yesterday, he would not fail to take advantage of any opportunity. It didn't make sense for him to swallow his anger after being beaten so badly yesterday.

Not only that, he was beaten in the middle of carriages 2 and 3. He was a sleeper in carriage 4, so why would he go between carriages 2 and 3 when he had nothing better to do?

Or is there no place to smoke in Carriage 4?

He must have something to hide and didn't want others to know that he had been to carriage No. 3!

No wonder, no wonder, no wonder he was acting sneaky and doing no good things last night.

Because he didn't have any evidence in his hands, these were just his speculations, so Gu Qingcheng couldn't say it too affirmatively.

In order to avoid alerting the enemy, she got up, packed up, and went to the conductor's office.

When the conductor saw that it was the girl from yesterday, he thought she was asking about the ticket subsidy and said, "Comrade, you came at the right time. I have reported your situation to my superiors, and they have agreed to waive half of the ticket fee. I will issue you a certificate later, and you can go to the ticket office to get a refund when the time comes."

Gu Qingcheng thanked him quickly, saying that he had essentially used the money for a hard seat to buy a sleeper ticket, which was a great bargain.

But she didn't come here for this matter today, so she said, "Hello, conductor. I came here for another matter today. Regarding the matter of something missing from carriage No. 3, I would like to provide you with some clues about this matter."

The conductor was surprised: "Do you have any clues?"

"That's right. Last night when I was washing up, I saw a man walking back and forth in carriage 3, acting suspiciously. He was obviously in carriage 4, but he was smoking at the junction of carriages 2 and 3. As a result, someone's things were stolen in the carriage the next morning. I think he might be related to the theft."

Of course, Gu Qingcheng also reported the anomaly in the carriage to the conductor. There were clearly two people in front and behind. The conductor was shocked after hearing this. He could not believe such a thing could happen.

Coupled with her well-reasoned analysis, the conductor immediately said: "Comrade Gu, thank you for the clues you provided. We will verify it as soon as possible to see if it is true."

"OK."

After a moment of silence, the conductor sighed again: "Comrade Gu, what you said makes sense, but you also know that in this situation, the saying that personal privacy is inviolable is rampant. If we don't have definite evidence, it's really difficult for us to take action, and we can't search bags. If we search bags and still can't find anything, then we'll have a big problem."
