SIAS Chapter 92.1

Catching A Thief (1)

Advertisement

After work the next day, the Reed Marsh Squad gathered together again at the call of Li Mengxue.

She told them what happened yesterday.

“What? There’s a thief?” Qian Lailai was very surprised.

Li Mengxue nodded, “I am very sure that someone entered my house. But because the stolen items are not obvious, I can’t be sure what was stolen. Is there anything wrong with your place?”

“I’m very sure that I didn’t lose anything.” Said Yi Qingqing.

“Me too. I count my things every day, and nothing is missing.” Qian Lailai also said.

Chen Zhihe also shook his head, “Me too. Nothing should be missing.”

“My lock should not have been pried open.” Yun Guyuan said with certainty.

“How do you know?” Li Mengxue asked, “I checked my lock yesterday and it seemed to be in good condition.”

“A lock that has been pried open will have scratches on the lock. If the thief is more skilled, there won’t even be any scratches, but the lock will be a little looser than before.” Said Yun Guyuan.

Li Mengxue suddenly realized, “My lock seems to be a little loose!”

“So, someone must have entered my room because one yuan was missing. I thought I lost it when I took it out to buy something. If the thief was very careful and not obvious, then the money might have been taken by her. I’m not sure if the rice and flour are missing.” Zheng Xiaolong also said.

“Don’t you think it’s that person again?” Qian Lailai said in a difficult way.

Why did this person always want to take things from others?

Did she really think she wouldn’t be caught?

If it was a fluke once, could she be lucky every time?

“It’s very likely that it was her. After Wang Lingling found something strange, she endured it for a month before she attacked. Wasn’t it just to eat back all the things that were stolen from her?”

“Liu Chunxing’s food might be a little insufficient now. If her family really treats her well as she said, they would help her no matter how difficult it is, but she is probably a liar, so it’s not surprising that she returns to her old ways.”

“I have already made a mark. As long as she makes a move again, we will definitely catch her red-handed!” Li Mengxue said.

She was disgusted with this person. She stole other people’s things and was able to be close friends with them, pretending to be a good person. She was very scheming. It was not impossible that she would make a move again and be so careful.

If she hadn’t had the supermarket space and had never touched the biscuits outside, she would probably think that the biscuit crumbs were dropped when she ate them.

Her things were taken away without anyone noticing. The other party’s methods were really high.

With such a person living in the educated youth point, everyone’s locks had just become decorations. It was terrible.

This time, they must find her out.

“For the next period of time, everyone will have to work. During the lunch break and noon break, many people will go in and out of the back alley to fetch water. She shouldn’t have a chance, right?”

Yi Qingqing thought for a moment and added again, “But the things she stole, even if she stole from all the old educated youths, there shouldn’t be much. Even if she lives frugally, it will only be enough for her to get through this month. The autumn harvest will not start until next month, and the distribution of grain will have to wait until after the harvest. The most likely time for her to make a move is the next holiday.”

Li Mengxue gave her a thumbs up. “That makes sense, but I can’t stand it for that long. I plan to create some opportunities. Isn’t there a wedding in the village next week? The educated youth have also been invited to the wedding, which should be an opportunity. But I’m not sure if she will still steal from me, so you’d better make preparations. Qingqing, especially you.”
