Chapter 1147: Secret Chamber (I)
After hearing what Lu Xiaoxiao said, the captain nodded, and then he led his men towards the Liu family. For some reason, he felt that Lu Xiaoxiao's trip to search the Liu family was not just impulsive, but had a purpose. Did Lu Xiaoxiao think that Liu Jianshu was the thief who stole the sweet potatoes?
"Grandma, open the door." When Liu Jianshu arrived at the door of his house, he knocked on the door and shouted into the yard.
When Wu Xiahua heard Liu Jianshu's voice, she immediately left the main room and went to the yard to open the door. If someone else asked her to open the door, she would definitely pretend not to hear it.
"Jianshu, why are so many people coming to our house? Did something happen?" After Wu Xiahua opened the door and saw a group of people gathered at the door, she asked Liu Jianshu.
"The sweet potatoes in the village were stolen last night, so the village conducted a search, and now it's our turn."
"I see. I just thought something had happened. Do we start the search now?"
"Um."
"Then come in." Wu Xiahua turned sideways and said to the person outside the house.
After hearing what Wu Xiahua said, the captain took people into the house to search, but this time he brought one more person, and that extra person was Lu Xiaoxiao.
"Grandma, are you sure that place is safe?" Liu Jianshu asked in a low voice while standing beside Wu Xiahua. Although he knew that the secret room was hidden enough, he was more prepared for the worst.
"Don't worry, no one in the village can find this place even the bandits can't find."
Wu Jianshu finally felt relieved after hearing Wu Xiahua's words, and then he returned to his usual smug look.
The captain led his men to search the Liu family but did not find any sweet potatoes, so he walked over to Lu Xiaoxiao and said, "Xiaoxiao, the Liu family did not find any sweet potatoes."
"Captain, the sweet potatoes were stolen by the Liu family. Please help me delay Wu Xiahua and Liu Jianshu for three minutes." Lu Xiaoxiao had noticed before that the missing sweet potatoes in the village were related to Liu Jianshu. After hearing what Wu Xiahua and Liu Jianshu said just now, she was sure that the people who stole the sweet potatoes were from the Liu family. Now all she needed was evidence.
"Did you take me?"
"have."
"Then I'll go over and help you hold the person back, so hurry up."
"good."
"Captain, did you find any sweet potatoes in my house?" Liu Jianshu asked the captain.
"No, but I have one room in your house that I haven't searched yet."
"Which room?"
"The largest room in the main house."
After hearing what the captain said, Liu Jianshu asked Liu Xiahua, "Grandma, did you lock your room?"
"yes."
"The captain wants to search your room. To make sure our family is innocent, please go open the door and let the captain and his men search the house."
Wu Xiahua actually didn't want anyone to search her house, but if she didn't let anyone search her house now, they would definitely think that she was hiding something, so she had to let someone search her house now.
"I'll go open the door now. Captain, please come with me." Wu Xiahua said to the captain.
After hearing what Wu Xiahua said, the captain followed Wu Xiahua towards the main room. When he passed by Lu Xiaoxiao, he whispered to Lu Xiaoxiao to hurry up, and then he quickly took two steps forward to increase the distance between him and Lu Xiaoxiao.
When Lu Xiaoxiao heard the captain's words, her eyes flashed, and then she continued to search along the path she had been searching before.
