After Wang Shi died, Jian Jing lived a quiet life.

At ten o'clock in the morning, she lazily opened her eyes, took out her mobile phone, clicked on the mini program of the five-star hotel, and ordered lunch for today. Then she closed her eyes for another quarter of an hour, crawled out of the bed and washed up.

While brushing her teeth and washing her face, she opened the APP, clicked on the school's online class, listened to the course, and wrote the paper.

She made a pot of coffee, cleaned up her emails, recharged money when necessary, and bought discounted items when necessary.

Then, the takeaway was delivered, still hot, with white smoke rising.

After lunch, her body was warm and she didn't want to move, so she curled up in the sofa to play with her mobile phone.

The owner group was lively.

Owner No. 01 on the 11th floor of Building 11 said: [Something strange happened in my house! ]

Everyone was bored and kept asking him to tell the story.

11-1101: [My takeaways have been stolen for three consecutive days. Who took my takeaways? Do

you dare to come forward?] 11-1802: [Who wants to steal the takeaways? Do you think we are idle?]

11-1101: [No one stole them. Will the takeaways disappear by themselves? Everyone knows that the deliverymen cannot enter our building. It must be someone in the building who can take them.]

People from other buildings saw the excitement and suggested: [Why not install a camera?]

11-1101: [Here comes the weird place. I installed a camera, but the takeaways are still gone.]

This caused a huge uproar and many residents were shocked.

[Didn’t capture the person who stole the takeaway?]

[Wait, if you didn’t capture that person, did you capture someone else?]

[Put the video up here for us to see]

…

11-1101: [Video.mkv]

The video has been sped up, and the general process is: the security guy carried the takeaway and put it at the doorstep of 11-1101’s home, took a photo and sent it to the group, notifying everyone.

Then he left.

Half an hour later, the owner got home and found that the door was empty, with no sign of the takeaway at all.

Other owners: [The angle of your camera is very narrow, just use a pole to hook it]

He also said: [Ask the property management to check the elevator surveillance]

The owner of 11-1101 left.

Half an hour later, he showed up in the group again: [The surveillance has been checked]

Everyone: [What’s up?] [Did you find it? ][Who is so wicked? ]

11-1101: [After checking the surveillance footage for half an hour, only the residents of 702 and 1301 had entered the elevator.]

The owners named were shocked and jumped up and down.

11-702: [What do you mean? Do you think we stole your takeaway? You are sick.]

11-1301: [Are you trying to cheat me? ]

11-1101: [I just want to know who stole my takeaway!]

He must have been brooding over this for a long time, and he sent a long string of messages.

11-1101: [Every building in our community has access control, and people who are not on this floor cannot enter. I usually order takeout after work, which takes about 40 minutes. I always catch it so accurately. Do you believe it is a coincidence?]

11-702: [My wife cooks every day. Why would I steal your takeout?]

11-1301: [How many times have you been stolen? Have you checked every time? Is it me or 702?]

11-1101: [Okay, I will check the last few days now. Don't deny it when the time comes]

Everyone pays close attention to the messages in the group. Jian Jing doesn't even take her writing seriously. She keeps looking at her phone, waiting for the follow-up.

More than half an hour later, the victim shows up again.

11-1101: [I lost takeout three times. The first time was 10 days ago, the second time was 7 days ago, and the third time was yesterday. The property management keeps the surveillance data for 15 days.]

Everyone: [Did they find out? Who found out?]

11-1101: [The first time was on the 5th and 19th floors, the second time was on the 13th and 6th floors.]

1301 jumped up: [I get off work at this time every day. What's so strange about it happening here?]

Passerby interrupted: [I think it should be the residents higher than the 11th floor. That way, they would know that there are often takeouts on the 11th floor. The elevators on the lower floors don't pass by, so they may not know.]

11-1301: [You are wrong to say that. Who said that only the upper floors know about it? Don't the security guards know about it too? ]

11-502: [Yes, the property people can enter and exit every building.]

The owner of 1101 was silent.

If the scope is expanded, there will be more suspects, and it may not be the owner who did it. Moreover, the property staff are more familiar with the layout of the building, and it is easy for them to steal the takeaway quietly. What's more,

some people have wild ideas: [If it's them, the surveillance can also be fake, that's how it's played in the movies.]

Jian Jing: "..."

With this technology, what takeaway would they steal?

But now, the direction of the group has completely reversed. Originally, it was just a matter of Building 11, and most people were watching with the mentality of watching a good show. But if the suspect is the property, then don't laugh at the second brother, everyone's home is in danger.

Who knows if the next one to be stolen will be your own home?

Who didn't have takeout, who didn't have express delivery?

The property management company must be consulted for an explanation.

So, all the owners turned to the property management group and asked the property management company to conduct a strict investigation on this matter.

Manager Di: [Please rest assured, owners, we will definitely give you an explanation.]

Jian Jing frowned. Who is this person? The previous person in charge of the property management company seemed to be named Bao. His profile picture was a bun with very beautiful wrinkles. She was deeply impressed.

She flipped through the chat records and found that when she was in the hospital, Manager Bao retired and was replaced by a new supervisor sent by the company, whose surname was Di.

The new official took office with three fires, and he really did a lot of things, including but not limited to adjusting the time for garbage collection, increasing parking lot monitoring, and prohibiting the planting of vegetables in the first-floor garden. He

seems to be a fierce and powerful person.

But when Jian Jing went out in the afternoon and came back after working out in the gym for an hour, they still hadn't found anything.

She: "..." Stealing takeaway food is a big deal after all.

So she strolled to the property office.

The owner of 1101 was still there. He looked sad: "I don't understand, even if I stole takeaway food, why are you targeting me? I bought fresh food, and I have to cook it myself, what's the point."

Jian Jing heard this as soon as she entered the room, and immediately asked: "Is it all fresh food? Not cooked food?"

"Basically, takeaway food is high in oil and salt, so I buy vegetables at the supermarket and cook them at home." The resident said, "By the way, you look familiar... Are you an actor?"

"A writer, a famous writer." The employee said, "Teacher Jian Jingjian."

The guest was in awe: "Oh, so you're a writer." He thought about it and seemed to have heard of the name. "There was a play before, "The Devil Doctor"? Did you write it?"

Jian Jing said modestly: "It's my humble work."

The guest became excited and said quickly: "This is a mystery novel, right? Hey, can you please help me figure out who is stealing my takeout? I'm so worried." Jian Jing

said happily: "Sure, I'm free, why don't you take me to Building 11 to have a look."

The property management checked for a long time without any clues, and the guest was too lazy to continue wasting time, so he decisively agreed.

The two of them entered Building 11 together.

Like the building where Jian Jing lived, there was a glass door at the entrance as an access control, and you had to use a door card or facial recognition to enter.

There are two households per elevator, and the elevator surveillance is working normally without any obstructions.

When she got to the 11th floor and got out of the elevator, she first saw a decorated wall, with the entrance doors on the left and right. But if she didn't get out of the elevator, she couldn't see the door.

She stood at the door of the victim's house and studied it for a while, then borrowed his mobile phone to check the surveillance range.

The field of view was a bit small, and she could only take a picture of most of the passage in front of her. But there was a half-meter wide corridor next to it, which went around to the staircase entrance behind the elevator shaft.

"I'm so high." The victim was worried, "Who would climb to the 11th floor just to steal a takeaway?"

Jian Jing nodded: "It's really strange."

She walked into the stairwell, observing and asking: "Has the discarded takeaway ever been found?"

"No, I'm not the only one who ordered a box of fresh food. There are so many in the trash can, who can recognize it?" The resident shook his head.

Jian Jing pondered: "How often do you order on average? What are the takeaways that are thrown away?"

The resident took out his mobile phone and looked through the order: "About once every two or three days. As for the food, uh, mushrooms, vegetables, chicken legs, eggs, etc., the most expensive is a steak."

"Do you take everything away every time?" she asked.

The resident nodded.

"What else did you order?"

The resident said, "I ordered a whole box of big crabs from Yangcheng Lake a week ago, but they weren't lost. I wondered."

What was lost were home-cooked ingredients, but the expensive ones were not taken away?

Jian Jing was more and more surprised as she listened, and asked, "Have you had any conflicts with others recently?"

"No." The resident cried out in injustice, "I parked my car properly, sorted all the garbage, and never played music at night to disturb others. I haven't done anything."

Jian Jing: "..." So, why him?

The 11th floor of the 11th floor has nothing special except that most of them are single. You can't just take advantage of them.

She thought hard but to no avail, so she just walked down the stairs.

The resident touched her belly and laughed dryly: "I'll wait for you downstairs."

The stairwell is neither too big nor too small, and meets fire standards. The cleaners mop it every now and then, and there is only a thin layer of dust on the handrails of the stairs.

Jian Jing turned on the flashlight on her mobile phone and shone it on the ground.

It's a pity that there is no multi-band light source, otherwise it would be more convenient to observe footprints. However, despite this, she found a clear footprint soon after.

And it betrayed the real suspect.

Jian Jing walked out of the building slowly and said to the impatient resident: "Let's go, I already know who stole your takeaway."

Resident: "Huh?" Really, you found it now?

He followed her to the property office with a confused look on his face.

Jian Jing called a familiar handsome guy: "Why haven't you seen the Knight recently?"

The Knight, a three-year-old male, is a German Shepherd raised by the property.

The guy suddenly became nervous, looked around, and whispered: "It's in the utility room. The manager said not to let it out in the future."

She was surprised: "Why?"

The security guy smiled bitterly: "When we were patrolling before, it scared a child. The owner complained to us, saying that it seriously endangered the safety of the community and asked us to get rid of the dog. The manager also felt that it was too expensive to raise a dog, and the funds would be better to install a few more surveillance cameras..."

Jian Jing understood and said: "Bring it over here, I have something to do."

The guy had to go downstairs to bring the Knight up.

It was in a bad mood, lying down unhappily, wagging its tail from time to time.

Jian Jing said to the resident of 1101: "Look, it's the one who stole your takeaway."

The resident: "Huh?"

"You ordered three takeaways, and he delivered two of them." Jian Jing pointed at the security guy.

The security guy nodded.

"He is responsible for taking care of the riders who come in and out. The access control must have recorded the riders' faces." She said, "If I'm not mistaken, the riders' food intake has been greatly reduced recently. When the takeaway was delivered, it would be handed over in the security room. It smelled the meat, followed it to your house, and 'stole' your takeaway."

She explained: "It didn't know the takeaway was on the 11th floor, so it climbed up the stairs one floor at a time. Because of its short stature, it grabbed the bag and ran away, so your surveillance did not capture it. However, there are its footprints in the stairwell, the depth is different, it should be left by the last two times. "

The security guy was stunned, and thought about it carefully, but he couldn't refute it: "It has changed to cheap dog food in the past two days, and it has not moved much."

As he said, he took out the dog food from the cabinet, took out a handful and handed it to the knight.

The knight smelled it and turned his head away without eating.

Jian Jing found it strange. The dog was so hungry that it stole takeout. There was no reason for it not to eat dog food. He couldn't help but look over and frowned immediately: "It's full of worms. Where did you buy it?"

The security guy said embarrassedly: "My food expenses were low, so I bought a cheap one online..." He touched the knight's head and apologized to the owner, "I'm sorry, how much is your takeaway? I'll compensate you."

People living in this community are not short of money, and the total amount is only a few dozen yuan. He didn't ask for compensation: "Forget it, it's not worth much, just figure it out."

But he also said: "You'd better send the dog away, otherwise what if it steals again next time?"

The knight was not calm: "Woof QAQ~"
