Chapter 697: Steal



Zhou Xiang leaned in his arms and nodded slightly. Jiang Weihua was indeed innocent.

Ling Ran heaved a sigh of relief when he saw her mood improve. Her bad mood had seriously affected him, and it made his heart ache.

He was about to say something else when he heard footsteps outside.

Zhou Xiang immediately pushed him away. He felt a little resentful. It was already official, so why did he act like he was being shamed?

Zhou Niao pushed the door open at once, "Sister, look, this backpack I bought for you, do you like it?"

Zhou Xiang's mouth twitched. The tender pink backpack, she, well! She liked it.

Reaching out to take it, "I like it, thank you big brother."

"Then, from now on, you can carry it with you every day. Whenever you feel down, you'll feel better just by looking at it. It's the color of peach blossoms, just like the flowers of the peach tree we planted."

Zhou wanted to stretch out his hand, but paused when he heard that Tiantian was carrying it on his back. After hearing the rest, he smiled and nodded, and continued to take it. After taking it, he put it on his shoulder.

Then he turned around and asked, "Does it look good?"

Zhou Niao clapped her hands, "She looks good. My sister looks good no matter what she looks like."

Hearing this, Ling Ran once again made up his mind to find a wife for his brother-in-law. Hmm! The Xiao family's granddaughter today is not bad, but who will take care of whom if the two of them are together? The little girl may not agree.

Jiang Weihua, who came in later, heard Zhou Niao's words and saw Ling Ran's jealous look. He laughed in his heart. Well, he found a way to deal with this wolf.

It was pitch dark at night, but that was okay! Because we chose the latter half of the night and it was only the 20th, so there was a moon.

One person walked out from each of the east and west houses. The two looked at each other in the main room and then walked out together.

After opening the gate and turning around to close it, they saw a figure standing in the yard, looking at them silently.

Zhou paused as he was about to close the door, and waved to the figure. The resentment around Ling Ran immediately disappeared. With excitement, he walked up to the little girl and turned around to close the gate.

Zhou Xiang thought that if he gave this guy a tail, he would probably come running with his tail wagging, right?

Then, he took the little girl's hand and looked at Jiang Weihua next to him provocatively.

Zhou Xiang really wanted to hold his forehead with his hand, pat his arm and signal him to be more careful.

Immediately, he followed his owner obediently like a dog whose fur had been stroked.

The three of them walked silently. When they arrived at the door of Jiang's house, Ling Ran looked at them in confusion. What were they doing coming to Jiang's house in the middle of the night?

Zhou Xiang whispered in his ear, "You stay outside to keep watch. Senior Jiang and I will go in and come out soon. Don't worry, this is Senior Jiang's home."

Ling Ran felt the warm breath beside his ear, and his heart felt like being tickled by a feather, but the occasion was not right, the little girl would get angry.

So he nodded, "Okay! I'll wait for you!"

Jiang Weihua knocked gently on the door. The doorman saw that it was the young master who had returned and was about to call for help, but was stopped by Jiang Weihua, "Don't make a sound. I came back to get something. I don't want to see my father yet."

The doorman nodded in understanding, then stepped aside and asked the young master and Miss Zhou to enter the yard through the side door.

As Zhou Xiang walked into the yard, a sentence suddenly popped up in his mind: You can guard against thieves in your own home day and night, but it is difficult to guard against thieves in your own home!

Jiang Weihua took Zhou Xiang into the second courtyard. There was no gatehouse at the second gate. This was not ancient times. If there was a gatehouse at the first gate, the family was considered powerful.

By the moonlight, Zhou wanted to observe the two courtyards, three rooms and four side rooms, that is, three main rooms and two side rooms on each side of the east and west.

There are three rooms on the east and west wing, and an ear room on each south side.

There are winding corridors in front of the main house and the wing rooms on both sides, and a corridor passing through the hanging flower gate is connected to the south side rooms on the east and west sides, forming a U-shaped corridor.

Although Zhou Xiang didn't understand these things, compared with his own square-shaped courtyard, he felt that this place was indeed where high-ranking officials and nobles lived.

Haha, let me clean up the background of the senior officials.

Jiang Weihua tugged at Zhou Xiang's sleeve and took her into the east wing, which served as a study, and the south ear room, which was just a small room of about ten square meters.

Jiang Weihua pressed somewhere on the wall, and the floor in front of the two of them slowly and silently slid open.

Jiang Weihua squatted down, turned on the flashlight, and pressed the code keys on the iron plate on the ground a few times. The iron plate slid open, revealing the steps.

Jiang Weihua was very excited. He was actually a thief! An inexplicable excitement coursed through him, a feeling he had never experienced before.

Zhou Xiang put on his tools, patted his shoulder, and whispered, "Why are you so excited? Shouldn't a thief feel guilty?"

Jiang Weihua was a little shocked when he saw his fully armed niece. Does she commit crimes like this often?

She had a hat on her head that covered her hair, and she had condoms on her hands and feet, which made her look very professional.

"Uh, go down there with your flashlight! I'll be waiting for you."

Zhou Xiang took the flashlight and went straight down the stairs. He had to be quick and leave no trace, which would be best.

The basement is well designed, with air circulation and flashlights shining all around.

From the first glance, it can be seen that the size of the basement should be similar to the wing room above. There are wooden shelves on three walls, on which many objects are placed. Ancient paintings and cold weapons are hung on one wall.

There were dozens of wooden boxes on the ground in the middle. Zhou Xiang really didn't know what Jiang Weihua was thinking. Could she make so many things disappear with magic?

I wonder if he's really stupid or just pretending? Oh no! Whatever, these are all stolen goods, and destroying the evidence is the key.

I cleaned the basement using a flashlight. Hmm, I decided to leave the shelf behind.

No one has ever seen a thief carry away even the shelves silently.

Jiang Weihua, who was waiting anxiously, saw a beam of light flashing across the underground stairs, and then a person slowly walked up the stairs.

He lowered his voice anxiously and asked, "How is it? Are you done?"

Zhou Xiang nodded, "Hurry up and restore this place." He handed him a pair of gloves and said, "Put them on and wipe off your fingerprints. No one knows whether your father knows anyone who can solve the case."

Jiang Weihua nodded, took the gloves, closed the entrance to the stairs, wiped the password keypad, and then pressed and wiped the wall.

When he turned around again, Zhou Xiang no longer had the tools he had used in the crime on him, so he waved his hand to signal the two men to leave.

When the doorman saw that the young master and Miss Zhou left empty-handed again, he went back to his room and went to sleep.

Ling Ran had been waiting anxiously since the two entered Jiang's house. Although it was Jiang Weihua's own home, he had no idea what the two were doing there, so he didn't know the degree of danger.

How could he not worry!

He didn't breathe a sigh of relief until he saw two figures, one tall and one short, walking towards him in the night.

After pulling Ling Ran away quickly from this area, Jiang Weihua and Zhou Xiang smiled at each other.

Zhou Xiang looked at Jiang Weihua, who was still in a state of excitement, and reminded him, "You still have to be careful. If you miss any clues, all our efforts will be in vain."

Jiang Weihua nodded. "I just went home to get my savings today. I don't know anything else."

"Yeah! I followed you here to get the money. I'm really short of it."
