Chapter 7122: Shahe Town 2
put away the iron box, and he searched in the room. However, after half a day, there was no dark room or place to store things. "Strange." Leng Xuan muttered to himself, why not? Did he find the wrong place? While thinking about it, I only heard Sophia say, "Mr. Leng, come here and have a look." Hearing this, Leng Xuan immediately walked over to her.
"Mr. Leng, look here." Following Sophia's finger, Leng Xuan discovered that there was a hidden space beside the kitchen stove. The stove is made of stone, but it is hollow inside, and this hidden compartment is just inside the stove. However, when Leng Xuan reached out and went in, he only found a box, and the box was still empty, with nothing in it. Li Mengjie guessed: "Could it be that someone took it away in advance?" Leng Xuan frowned: "No one knows there is something here except me." Li Mengjie said: "That's not necessarily, you forgot, When we came in just now, the door locks were all broken, indicating that there have been thieves here." Sophia nodded: "Miss Li is right, and I checked it just now and found traces of someone living here, saying Maybe the nearby homeless and beggars used this place as a temporary residence." After listening to their guesses, Leng Xuan couldn't help scratching his head and secretly complained about Uncle Zhang.
Since you have left something for him, find a safe place. Now that the thing is lost, where can he go to find it. Just as he was thinking about countermeasures, he heard a soft knock from the door, and then a few footsteps entered their ears. "Let's go and have a look." At that moment, the three of Leng Xuan walked quickly towards the living room. Soon, two ragged old men appeared in their eyes. The two beggars obviously did not expect that there were other people in the house. The appearance of Leng Xuan and the three of them suddenly shocked them and almost fell to the ground.
"You... who are you?" A beggar asked Leng Xuan and the three of them warily. Leng Xuan asked: "You two have always lived here?" The beggar replied, "We have lived here for more than a month." Leng Xuan asked, "This month, apart from the two of you, I have also Has anyone else been here?" The two beggars looked at each other and shook their heads: "No." Leng Xuan said solemnly, "Then have you found anything here?" The two beggars said: " We are only staying here at night, and besides, there is a pile of **** here, what valuable things can there be?" Leng Xuan said indifferently: "Forgot to tell you, I am the owner of this room, and I used to store a few things here. It's gone, and only you are here during this time, if it weren't for you, who would it be?"
Hearing this, the expressions of the two beggars changed, and they quickly said: "Don't wrong people, we have never stolen anything here." Leng Xuan stared at the other party's expression without blinking. Judging from the change in his demeanor, it doesn't look like he's lying. At this time, only Li Mengjie said, "It's been so long, maybe those things were stolen a long time ago." Hearing this, Leng Xuan sighed secretly, feeling rather helpless. However, at this moment, an old man suddenly walked in outside the door. The old man was in his sixties, his face was covered with age spots, and the hair on his head had already fallen out. There was a dog in the old man's hand.
