Chapter 168 Thief-Liang Ming

The fourth thief
Sixteen Liang Ming

"Hey...Daughter-in-law - ancestor, Queen Mother Lafayette - why are you crying? The morning news was all exaggerated. The fireworks stall that has been set up for so many years didn't mention how many accidents it had. I'm not okay~ It's okay. I didn't tell you just because I was afraid that you would worry. How could I let you know about this embarrassing thing? It’s just that the place where the car accident happened is a bit close to the boundary where our stall is set up. You and I are thick-skinned, thick-skinned, and blessed with great fortune—"

The owner of the fireworks stall held his cell phone and kicked the icy curb coyly. His wife's cry of concern made him smile with narrowed eyes. He shook his head and accidentally bumped into Jiang Mo, who tilted his head and handed it to him with interest. His gaze was unobstructed, poking into Officer Jiang's joking and upturned eyes. He turned his upper body and made a red face in embarrassment.

"If I don't want to go out in the morning, then I want to stay with you for a little longer. If I don't get kicked by you one day, I won't be able to do it... Do you want to feel sorry for me and make a good meal for me in the evening? What do you want to eat? I'll buy it later, look at you crying..."

The woman on the other end of the call was even sobbing loudly and fiercely, but the concern mixed with reproach was obviously very disturbing to the stall owner - Jiang Mo listened like a light bulb to the conversation between the old couple. One is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer. The love that these two people seem to be accustomed to is so boring that their scalp is numb.She silently took a few steps back, turned around and saw the little auxiliary police put down the car intercom and breathed a sigh of relief. He raised the brim of his hat and raked his frizzy hair. She ran back and came back, first talking to Jiang Mo who was helping to delay the persuasion. He nodded, tilted his head and glanced at the owner of the fireworks stall who hung up the phone and waved to leave. He opened his mouth blankly, rushed to the electric three-wheeler and stopped, and dismissed the stall owner with words and gestures. Thinking of going back home, he held up his cell phone with sweat on his face. He didn't know which temporary way out was pointed out to him by the help from the nursery.

Jiang Mo stared at the peace between the police and the citizens for a while, then turned around and thought about going to the canteen that the owner of the fireworks stall had talked about. After just walking a few steps, his cell phone started to stop in his pocket for a few minutes. Explosive vibrations.

After going through Jiang Mo's entire phone address book, he found that such an unruly and well-behaved move could only be done by an unlucky person like Shao Jie, who had tried many times but still managed to do it just right.

This kid was most likely poisoned by the police code he read from somewhere. He didn't dare to make a phone call and sent a long series of "peeping", "are you there" and "pay attention to me" emojis. Bao, frantically trying to gain attention but failed, the top of the dialog box suddenly jumped to a line of "Inputting".

Jiang Mo was a little curious that he was going to say something shocking in his lengthy speech, but he only waited quietly for less than half a minute, then he ran out of patience, rubbed his frozen fingers, and gave a muffled blow. He sneezed, sniffed and put through the phone call directly: "Why did you get up so early? Does your arm still hurt after howling for a long time in the middle of the night?"

"...It doesn't hurt...I lied to you." Shao Jie on the other end of the phone was obviously startled after answering the call for a second. He muttered in his throat before speaking in a hoarse voice: "Eden woke up from a nightmare and cried. I just coaxed him When I fell asleep, I saw the note you left on the coffee table, so I asked... I was so deep in sleep that I didn't even know you went out... I saw nothing in the refrigerator and cupboard was moved, have you eaten? "

Shao Jie's voice was a bit muffled, and the soft rustle made Jiang Mo's ears itch: "You haven't had enough of the snail girl yet? I just bought some bread. I brought you over so that you can celebrate the New Year at my house. And I don’t really want you to be a nanny——”

Jiang Mo walked to the entrance of the canteen with his cell phone in his hand, and wandered around for a week. He pushed open the somewhat loose glass and wooden door, nodded briefly to the elder sister who was sitting at the cashier counter hooking up her slippers, leaned over and took a closer look at the messy bread shelves. He picked it up and walked away with his eye on the shelf life: "It's time for you to sleep."

"Don't just buy bread, buy a box of milk and other things as well."

"Oh, right, Eden couldn't stop crying just now, so he made a fuss and called Ms. Jiang. He originally wanted to be coquettish, but it happened that Ms. Jiang said that their trip ended early and their flight was to Sheng'an this afternoon. I guess you will be busy today. , I will go back to the base to train directly after they get home. Let me tell you in advance, if you don’t see me when you come back in the evening-" Shao Jie probably heard the movement of the rustling plastic, paused slightly, and whispered Jiang Mo smiled and said, "Don't miss me too much." Jiang Mo grabbed a carton of milk and put it on the counter to pay. He bared his teeth and tore open the bag of bread, but he didn't hear Shao Jie's pretending to be deep. , it took me two seconds to finally understand what this kid had just said. Before he could catch up with the conversation, he choked on his own saliva. He turned around and glanced at the screen. The kid on the other end of the phone was already flirting. He immediately hung up the phone and before leaving completely, he even sent a rose in the dialog box in a slightly provocative manner.

Jiang Mo choked on the bread and punched his chest twice.She snorted helplessly, tilted her head and curiously took a second look at the landlady who was twirling her fingers to hook up the thread. Her eyes went wrong, and she narrowed her eyes slightly to carefully check the blurry and old display behind her. Looking at the screen, he rolled the tip of his tongue and licked his back molars.

"Sister, the surveillance camera in our store is right opposite the door..." Jiang Mo stuffed the bread into his mouth in three mouthfuls, puffed out his cheeks to show his identity, and gestured vaguely and confidently: "How many days are videos usually kept? Can I take a look?"

At 48:[-] in the morning, the dark and gloomy sky was swept away by the sudden cold air. The faint morning light dimly covered the incomplete crescent moon, and the shadows were so blurry that it was almost impossible to see the traces.

Wang Jiahao scratched his freshly washed and blow-dried hairstyle, squeezed into the breakfast entrance of the traffic police detachment canteen, picked up a plate full of steamed buns, flipped over the helmet of the cavalryman and filled two cups of soy milk, and squeezed away his colleagues who were wiping their mouths with discs. , and sat down on the fixed dining chair with his buttocks firmly planted.

"Morning meeting at six o'clock, why did you come to eat?" Zou Rui put away the plates and came back, picked up the helmet on the plastic stool, breathed twice, and glanced at Wang Jiahao's shoulders that were almost mopping the floor. Seeing the dark circles under his eyes drooping on the table, she reached out to help him hang them up again: "You haven't slept all night?"

"I was still on duty in the morning. I must have slept for three hours." Wang Jiahao yawned while biting the bun. He tore open the plastic wrap of the soy milk and stuffed it into the cup: "The one who got away in a car accident yesterday spent most of the night looking for that broken car. , I almost fell asleep just after I left the dormitory."

Zou Rui held up his arms and looked at the time, picked up the mobile phone that was about to be squeezed out of Wang Jiahao's pants pocket and placed it next to his helmet: "The one at Labor Lake? It's not the one where you were on duty? Or is it the car you checked before? ?”

"Remember that time Detective Jiang Mo called and scolded our team, right? The day your goddess cried while on duty—"

Wang Jiahao winked, and was slightly slapped by Zou Rui, who was waving his helmet. He opened the call history with a grin, and dialed Jiang Daer's number: "I have been causing trouble in the city before, and I can't hold it anymore." .The car involved in the hit-and-run accident yesterday was also under the name of that buddy - the nominal leader of Shengcheng International, Liang Ming."
