A basket of stupid thieves

Chapter 65 The Midnight Snitch
The sound came from the opposite side, and the duration was not short, about seven or eight seconds.

Directly opposite to himself is Tian Longlong's room, and diagonally opposite is Qian Shenglian's room.

The dark room is above Qian Shenglian's room.

Obviously, the two old men entered the darkroom, and the continuous murmuring just now was the sound of the darkroom mechanism moving the second bookcase Li Dong mentioned along with the wall behind it.

Xu Lili slowly opened the door and put her head out to have a look. Although Tian's house was completely dark, and even the floor lamp that was always on when she slept was turned off, she still saw a black shadow coming from where she was. Go out of the hallway and turn right.

The movement is light and fast.

Who?
Needless to say, Tian Genbao must be on the third floor at this time, and Tian Longlong is not at home. There are only three women on the second floor: himself, Qian Shenglian and Tian Lili.

A faint sound of snoring came from Qian Shenglian's room, and she actually slept soundly.

This person is Tian Lili?
Unlikely, right?
It wasn't her who went out from this corridor, and no one else.

Didn't expect Tian Lili to do this kind of thing, peeping at her father's secret?
The situation of the Tian family is far more complicated than I imagined.

She must have run to the third floor immediately after hearing that muffled thought, just in time for her to see her back.

Tian Lili is very smart. If those two old guys entered the dark room, it would be safe for her to at least wander around the study and bedroom after going up to the third floor without being noticed.

But in the study and bedroom, except for the undiscovered dark room switch, what's the point of being there?

Xu Lili controlled her urge to go up to the third floor to take a look, half crawled on the ground, stuck out half of her head and quietly looked out of the corridor.

She looked at the time, it was just after 12 o'clock.

A few minutes later, another muffled sound came, and Xu Lili could clearly distinguish that the sound came from Tian Longlong's room, not Qian Shenglian's room.

Just when she was about to stand up and hesitate whether to venture into Tian Longlong's room to check the situation, a voice came from the third floor: "Who?"

Xu Lili quickly retracted her head, a rush of footsteps came from the direction of the stairs on the third floor, and then there was a "boom!", and she jumped directly from the platform on the second floor to the first floor without taking the stairs?
Then, there was another sound of footsteps accompanied by the sound of metal hitting the railing on the second floor. Xu Lili knew that Tian Genbao and Uncle Hu might have chased them down.

Hearing this voice, he came down with a knife or some other blunt weapon
But their pace was significantly slower than the previous one.

He definitely couldn't catch up, let alone the one who didn't even run the distance from the platform on the second floor to the stairs, and jumped directly to the first floor.

The lights of Tian's house were on.

Xu Lili immediately closed the door, and hurried back to her bed.

If it was Tian Lili, why didn't she run to her own room, afraid of being caught by her father?

So what if she was caught, she was her biological daughter after all?

How dare Tian Lili jump off a building in such a dark situation?

Why can't I believe it?
Sure enough, Tian Genbao and Lao Hu came down, and after a while, the voices outside became chaotic.

Since the door was closed tightly this time, I couldn't hear it very clearly, as if I heard Han Dongliang's voice.

About two, three, and 10 minutes later, my doorknob rang lightly, and someone poked his head in to have a look, then closed the door and left.

The voice turned to the first floor, Xu Lili got up again and opened the door a little, a ray of light squeezed in, at this time the Tian family even turned on the lights in the corridor.

I heard Tian Genbao's voice reprimanding Han Dongliang: "You will guard me here tonight!"

Xu Lili closed the door again, and she couldn't go out tonight.

But she immediately had a new judgment, the black figure who jumped off the building just now must not be Tian Lili.

Go to sleep, staying like this is exhausting, there shouldn't be anything new, the lights are on, and that Han Dongliang is guarding the living room again, even if he wants to do something, he can't do it.

……

May 8, morning.

When eating breakfast the next day, Tian Genbao told Xu Lili and Tian Lili what happened last night.

"It's good for you two sisters. You slept so deeply. We didn't even know that a thief broke into our house yesterday."

"Steal what?" Tian Lili asked hastily.

"Steal?" Tian Genbao smiled: "Is there anything to steal in our house, even I can't find it myself, can the thief find it?"

This joke was a bit cold, making Xu Lili feel as if she was telling it to herself.

But it's impossible, they have come to see it in their room yesterday, and they are sleeping soundly on the bed, so they shouldn't be suspicious, besides, they really didn't do anything.

According to Tian Genbao's tone, Tian Lili's room was also the same, and he poked his head in and took a look.

It's even more obvious that it's not Tian Lili.

Who is that?
Xu Lili looked at Mother Qin, could it be her?
She behaved quite naturally, serving meals, clearing up dishes, everything as usual.

"Where did the thief come in?" Xu Lili asked.

Tian Genbao explained the detailed process. Last night, he and Uncle Hu talked about business in the bedroom on the third floor until late at night. When they were about to go downstairs to sleep, they found someone in the study. When they chased them out, they had disappeared.

After going downstairs, he found that both the house door and the courtyard door were open. He should be an expert at picking locks and knew the situation of Tian's house better, so he opened three doors in succession and went up to the third floor.

Then ran out the door again.

Tian Genbao called Qin Ma and Han Dongliang, fearing that the two daughters would be unsafe, so he asked Qian Shenglian to look at them one by one.

Not Mother Qin?

Another newcomer joined?
Li Dong? !
Xu Lili quickly thought that Li Dong is the only one who is familiar with the Tian family and has such skills.

But he felt that it was impossible. Based on his many years of experience in reading people and his understanding of Li Dong, he would not do this behind his back.

In this way, there are really new competitors.

Unlikely, newcomers are not so familiar.

And this person rushed up to the third floor from the corridor on the second floor.

Think about it for a while, and you'll understand right away.

It was Ma Si, the bastard, who did the trick.

And it's a partnership with Mother Qin.

Qin's mother knew the location of the dark room, so she arranged this person into Tian Longlong's room in advance. If there was any movement in the dark room above, she could hear it more clearly than in her own room.

After hearing the sound of the darkroom opening, he came out of Tian Longlong's room and rushed up to the third floor as fast as he could.

It happened to be seen by myself.

If explained in this way, everything makes sense.

At this time, looking at Qin's mother again, a weird smile appeared on her face, and her judgment was proved.

Uncle Hu came down disheveled and disheveled. He didn't even eat breakfast. He just said hello to everyone and said that there was something urgent about business and he left first.

Yesterday's business negotiation failed, and Xu Lili couldn't ask.

Xu Lili asked Mother Qin to pour herself a cup of tea, deliberately killing time.

After the three of Tian's family went upstairs, Xu Lili immediately called Qin's mother over.

"Tell me, Qin Daxia, what happened last night?" Xu Lili asked in a low voice.

"Don't you know everything?"

"I know shit, who did you get to the third floor last night?"

Mother Qin leaned over the dining table: "Do you really want to know?"
