Chapter 236 'Thief'
Streamers, cheers, applause.
The basketball players of North City International High School stepped onto the podium under the watchful eyes of the crowd to welcome their victory.
The boys were dressed in orange and yellow team uniforms, looking high-spirited, with heavy gold medals hanging around their necks.
“Is this real gold?”
"Fuck, fuck, it's so chewy, it can't be pure gold, right?"
"You think too much. How could it be pure gold?"
The boys were curious about the gold medal and talked about it a lot.
Shen Lin touched the gold medal and didn't know whether it was true or not. He only knew that this was the most awesome day in his life.
He actually won first place. Apart from the awards such as certificates and medals he had received in kindergarten, this was the first time he had received such an honor.
The beads of sweat on the boy's face were like shining pearls.
He stood on the podium and looked out, as the entire stadium cheered for them.
The black and red ocean that belonged to him was boiling because of his victory.
Shen Lin saw the relief and pride in his family's eyes from afar.
His heart was pounding in his chest, and Shen Lin picked up his MVP trophy and held it high amid cheers.
"Second brother——"
A crisp baby voice came from the backstage of the game. Shen Lin had just changed his clothes and his face was still wet after washing.
"Sorry."
The little guy was lifted high by his second brother, his body flying in the air, with the little curly hair on his forehead standing up.
Seeing that the little guy was staring at his gold medal, Shen Lin simply took it off and hung it around his neck.
The little guy was extremely excited when he saw the gold medal for the first time.
This is my second brother’s gold medal, shiny and heavy.
"Second brother is awesome!" The little guy was talking about him winning the MVP.
Shen Lin has been drowned in praise today, especially from Youyou.
The little fellow looked at him with sparkling eyes, and his admiration was like an endless torrent of water.
The person this little guy likes to stick to the most at home is Uncle Su and Uncle Qin. Mom and Dad are second. If they are not around, Tang Dou is first...
And now, the little one's heart and eyes are full of him. From the moment they met, he has never left his body, and every three sentences he says are "Second brother is so awesome, second brother is so great, second brother is so handsome~".
Shen Lin had never stood up so straight in his life as he did today, and he pouted his lips to accept the little guy's fancy kisses.
After the game, according to the team's custom, there will be a celebration banquet.
It was already ten o'clock in the evening when Shen Lin returned home after the celebration party.
The lights in the villa were still on, and his family was waiting for him to come home.
After Shen Lin changed his shoes, Chu Ying brought him a glass of water and sniffed him.
Shen Lin took off his schoolbag and said with a smile: “Mom, I didn’t drink.”
Chu Ying touched his head and said, "That's pretty good."
It is not uncommon for kids of this age to drink. Tonight, Jia Chao and seven or eight other boys drank a box of beer.
Shen Lin doesn't drink alcohol and only drinks coconut milk.
He raised his head and drank the water his mother handed him in one gulp. He noticed Shen Minyan sitting on the sofa in the living room.
Shen Minyan was tall and had long legs. He worked with his back slightly hunched, and his posture looked awkward.
Shen Lin walked over and called out, "Dad."
Shen Minyan responded, nodded, then stood up, picked up the computer and went back upstairs.
"Well done, MVP." The usually taciturn old father patted him on the shoulder and smiled at him.
Shen Lin's heart almost stopped, his breathing suddenly stopped, and his face suddenly turned red.
Shen Yan yawned and stood up, motioning him to look at the display cabinet next to the entrance.
The display cabinet is made of transparent material, and the medals and trophies that Shen Lin received today are placed perfectly inside it.
"When is this?"
Shen Yan said, "Dad ordered it last week."
The display cabinet not only contained Shen Lin's medals and trophies, but also Shen Yan's. Even the small certificate and plastic medal that Su Youli received in kindergarten were placed here.
Seeing him standing in front of the display cabinet, Chen Yan chuckled and encouraged him, "Work hard, young man, and fill up this display cabinet."
Shen Lin swore that he had never felt as though he could really do what his elder brother said before in his life.
It seems like he could really fill up the display case.
Shen Lin leaned against the cabinet, sniffed, raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "I'll try my best, but brother, don't have too much hope in me."
On the second floor, Shen Minyan stood there looking down.
The man with a cold face softened his expression and showed a relieved smile.
In early May, the children of Xingya Kindergarten returned to school after a long vacation.
The driveway in front of the door was packed with people.
Su Youli, wearing her spring school uniform and carrying a small schoolbag, jumped out of the car: "Goodbye, Mom."
Chu Ying was not in good health. The little guy never let his mother run to pick him up, nor did he let his mother squeeze in the crowd to send him to school.
She obediently held brother Xiao Tang's hand and walked into the kindergarten.
"What did Youyou put in your schoolbag? It's almost falling to the ground."
After the people had gone far away, Chu Ying realized that the little guy's schoolbag seemed heavier than usual.
The driver tilted his head to take a look and saw that the little guy's walking posture with his schoolbag on his back was indeed more stiff than usual.
He guessed: "It might be filled with snacks and toys. My son often puts snacks in his schoolbag and sneaks them into school."
Chu Ying could already imagine the little guy's aggrieved look when the teacher found out he had brought snacks and had them confiscated.
I thought I would have to comfort the child well when I come to pick him up in the evening.
Shen Lin came back for lunch at noon. There was no one at home except the housekeeper and aunt. He quickly finished his lunch and went upstairs.
The young man was in a hurry, and Steward Li was afraid that he might fall accidentally, so he asked him to run slower.
Shen Lin took three steps at a time, turned around and smiled at Butler Li after hearing this: “Grandpa Li, I have long legs, so I can’t fall.”
His eyes suddenly glanced at the glass display cabinet. The display cabinet was wiped very clean every day, and everything inside was clearly visible.
Shen Lin subconsciously looked at the two that belonged to him, and his pupils shrank suddenly.
"Grandpa Li, where are my medals and trophies?!" Shen Lin felt that his voice was shaking when he spoke.
The boy jumped down the stairs with one hand on the handrail, leaped to the display cabinet in two or three steps, and pulled the handle...
Sure enough, it was gone!
Butler Li was breathing rapidly: "Why is it gone? It was still there yesterday."
Butler Li quickly called the villa security personnel and asked them whether there were any suspicious people entering or leaving the villa today.
The answer was no, and Butler Li thought that thieves nowadays were very dangerous.
Maybe the thief used some high-tech technology to avoid security inspection.
Butler Li imagined a business war in his mind; he could not tolerate a thief in his house.
Today they stole a gold medal, and tomorrow they will steal Shen’s business secrets!
In less than a minute, Shen Lin fully understood the work ability of Butler Li and was impressed by him.
Three minutes later, the security team arrived at the display case with professional equipment.
They wore black uniforms and white gloves.
The leading bodyguard had a serious expression on his face and wore a pair of special glasses.
Hold an ultraviolet lamp in your hand to shine on the surface of the object to look for fingerprints and check the details of the fingerprints.
A few small, messy handprints appeared on the bases where the gold medal and trophy were placed.
Shen Lin: “…”
He seemed to have caught something.
Shen Gong was impartial and said: Who is this person in the hall and what crime have they committed?
Chen Yuan Zhong Lin: He is my brother, he stole my gold medal to show off!
A big-eyed cute kid: I didn’t steal~
The gavel made a "bang" sound, and the cute big-eyed baby was so scared that he almost fell to the ground.
Yan: Don’t act cute in court! ! !
You (eyes watery, about to cry): Um...
"Submit surveillance, fingerprints and other evidence"
Rin: Oh, what else do you have to say?
Seeing that the evidence was sufficient, Master Shen raised his hand to interrupt.
Yan (with eagle eyes narrowed): Wait a minute, there is something fishy about this matter.
Lin (furious): I knew it, I knew it, you are a corrupt official, the evidence is so strong...
Yan (pointing at the photo of the display case): The suspect is not tall enough to steal the property in the display case. The evidence is insufficient, and Su Youli is acquitted!
You (suddenly violent version): It was me who stole it, it was me who stole it, I stole it when I stood up!
"The officer mercilessly pulled out a ruler and measured it."
"The suspect was so angry that he shouted that he wanted to confess his guilt."
Butler Li came running over, carrying a small ladder...
You (True, crying version)
Yan (solve the case, get off work, I am really a great judge)
Lin (giving a thumbs up to Butler Li)
