Chapter 160 Pet Thief

"I'm a little tired these days, let's rest here first." Chang Geng's expression remained unchanged, except for talking to Hao Xue, everything else was as cold as water without rain.

Hao Xue bent her eyes and drank tea, her lips twitched slightly under the wide veil, she knew that Chang Geng was spying on her, it was boring anyway, she answered every question she had.After wearing a veil, Hao Xue stopped eating in public, which was very inconvenient, and only drank tea.

Hao Xue drank tea silently, and talked to Chang Geng from time to time, but she couldn't help looking at Shuiwuyu, seeing his lonely figure standing there alone, she felt a little sorry for keeping him from him.

Hao Xue lowered her eyelids, holding the teacup in both hands, for a while, Hao Xue raised her eyes to look at Chang Geng, and asked: "Young Master Chang Geng, what if you can't find the person you are looking for? What will Master Shui do?"

Chang Geng paused, "This is something that Young Master decides."

Chang Geng stared at Hao Xue, blinked, and said bluntly: "Miss Zhou is bold, kind and brave. Chang Geng would like to make friends. Can the girl be more frank and tell Miss Chang Geng what she thinks in her heart?" .”

Hao Xue blinked, Chang Geng was also straightforward, this is to ask her to tell her purpose.Hao Xue smiled crookedly, lowered her head, then raised her head to look at Chang Geng, pretending to be shy and said: "Brother Chang Geng is so forthright, Zhou Xue will not hide it anymore, in fact... I fell in love with Mr. Shui at first sight... So... Don't make jokes, Mr. Chang Geng, Zhou Xue couldn't help herself..."

Hao Xue said embarrassedly, and smiled to observe Chang Geng's reaction.Seeing the face-to-face pause, he was very surprised by Hao Xue's answer, and then calmed down. After all, his master does have the charm that makes people fall in love at first sight.

Chang Geng didn't know how to respond to Hao Xue's sudden confession...to his master's confession.After a while, Chang Geng said slowly: "Young master already has a lover, girl should find another lover!"

Hao Xue said with some regret: "Is it the person in the portrait? Seeing that the young master is so anxious to find it, is it the beautiful princess?"

"No." Chang Geng denied, regretting that he was talking too much, did he talk too much?

"Huh? That's another one. As long as I can look at him, I can follow him for a while. I will follow you until you find someone. I won't hinder you, and I won't pester you endlessly." Hao Xue seriously Say, let them know that she is not easy to deal with.

Chang Geng didn't speak, he didn't know if Hao Xue's help was a good thing or a trouble.

At this time, a few people who had just entered the store were discussing something, and the store became a little lively.

"Brother, if this is done, we will get rich, so what's the problem with finding an animal..."

"That's not necessarily true. It's not an ordinary animal. It's the pet of the eldest lady. I heard that the rich man's family has many guards, but he was still quietly taken away. This snitch must be unusual, so it's hard to find..."

"Anyway, go and look for it, maybe you're lucky, let's go and have a look when we're full, hehe~"

Hao Xue and Chang Geng didn't sound very interested. It seemed that a young lady's pet had been stolen, and the family was gathering people to find it.

"But you said that this thief is strange enough. He doesn't steal property or beauties, but he just steals animals, not just one family. What do you think this thief wants so many cats for? Is it reselling? Or eat it? Meat?" Another person said strangely, shaking his head to express his incomprehension.

"How do ordinary people understand the idea of ​​a thief..."

Hao Xue understood, this thief is used to stealing cats, there are more than one family, could it be that cats control thieves?Interesting person.

Hao Xue was chatting and recruited Xiao Er to ask about the cat thief.Xiaoer told me that the daughter of a wealthy family in the next city lost her pet. It was a precious cat from another country. It disappeared one day, and she couldn't find it everywhere.Afterwards, a notice was launched, as long as anyone who finds a thousand gold pet will be rewarded.

I thought it was just an incident where pets were accidentally lost. After that, other cats disappeared. They were kept at home well, but they disappeared overnight. Someone must have stolen them.

After that, the pets of ordinary people disappeared, and not only the cats were missing, but now even the dogs were stolen.

In this way, it is not a trivial matter. The stolen family reported the crime to the government, but the government didn't care about it. It's just that the animals are gone and they are not people.The families who were lost had no choice but to deal with it themselves, and issued a notice to ask the power of the masses to help.

"Maybe it was eaten?" Hao Xue said.

To be able to freely enter other people's homes, catch cats and dogs, and not steal property, that is a special liking for pets, but after gathering so many pets, I didn't find any traces left, so maybe they are gone!
Hao Xue didn't care about this matter, and Chang Geng and Shui Wuyu were not interested in the thief either.

After resting for half a day, Chang Geng went out to work again, tirelessly searching for people, and shuttling through the small town.

Hao Xue stayed with Shui Wuyu in the store, ignoring his cold stare and shared a table with him, but she just sat in front of him and didn't chat with him.Going to strike up a conversation with someone in such a situation of being ostracized by others will only speed up the improvement of others' negative points towards themselves.

Chang Geng didn't come back until dark, but still found nothing.

The three rested in this small town for a day. The next day Hao Xue saw Shui Wuyu and still greeted him warmly. Shui Wuyu took another look at her, but still ignored her, and the indifference in her eyes was even worse.

Hao Xue smiled secretly, Shui Wuyu knew about her "love at first sight" yesterday, and this person didn't say anything, it seemed that she was hated even more, Hao Xue was not annoyed, and followed them as usual.

After eating the food, Shui Wuyu was about to leave when he heard someone talking about thieves in the inn again.

"Do you know? Last night, the pets of the Shen family in the east also disappeared. I heard that it was a birthday present that Mr. Shen bought at a high price for his daughter when he went abroad for business. It was a cute cat. It's gone again... ..."

"This thief is still a thief here. The Shen family is the largest family in our town, and there is nothing missing in the family's property. This thief is only interested in pets, and his hobbies are really strange..."

"Nowadays, people who have pets quickly cover their own, and dare not show it..."

Hao Xue was also interested. Now that she has stolen here, this thief also has principles. He only steals pets, not wealth. Does this thief have a different obsession with pets, or is he just eating pets like she guessed? meat?
No matter what, Shui Wuyu and the others are not interested, Hao Xue is curious but doesn't want to join in the fun, she just needs to follow Shui Wuyu closely.

"I heard that Master Shen has asked people from Jianghu to help him deal with it, and he will surely catch that pet thief..."

"Haha, let's wait and see, anyway, this kind of thing won't happen to us..."

The government doesn't care about thieves stealing pets, and the stolen people can only do it themselves.However, in the afternoon, I heard that the government office in the neighboring city had issued an announcement saying that they wanted to arrest the thieves.

It turned out that the official's house was also attacked by thieves. I heard that the pet in the daytime was nestled in the wife's arms. Suddenly there was a gust of wind, and the heads of the lady and the servant girl were covered with a piece of cloth. I was ashamed of my sight, and when I came back to my senses, my wife's arms were empty.

This thief is truly daring, committing crimes in front of everyone in broad daylight, but no one sees what he looks like.

Dare to steal into the official's house, such a person is not generally arrogant, he is simply provoking the official.Can the master not deal with him?
Such a brave and capable person wants to be a thief and only steals pets. Why does Hao Xue think he is cute.Hao Xue wants to meet this person, curiosity!

Hao Xue wanted to persuade Chang Geng and the others to stay for one more day, to see if Master Shen could take down the thief, but seeing Shui Wuyu's stern expression, he couldn't open his mouth.

Shui Wuyu ate leisurely, and then still sat alone in the seat by the window, ignoring anyone, quietly being his handsome man.

"Chang Geng, Master Shui isn't leaving today, is he?" Hao Xue asked while staring at Shui Wuyu.

"I don't know, the young master wants to leave, I will give orders."

The water never left without rain, and Chang Geng went out for a walk to find someone. Hao Xue almost said that he might as well hang the portrait in the town for others to see, so he would soon know if anyone has seen the person in the painting.

Of course, this is just Hao Xue's idea, if Chang Geng really did this, she would tear it up immediately.Chang Geng and the others are not so stupid. If Zhang Yang could find someone, they would have done it long ago.

Shui Wuyu looked at the passers-by outside the window, while Hao Xue looked at him from the side.Hao Xue wanted to share the table with Shui Wuyu, but she still didn't want to get angry with Shui Wuyu.

The last time she was sitting at the same table with Shui Wuyu, she tasted the sweetness, thinking that she could get closer to him, but just now she wanted to get closer, Shui Wuyu said directly: "Girl, please respect yourself, I am not interested in you."

Hao Xue suddenly looked embarrassed, she had already been told by the two men to "respect yourself", should she feel ashamed to be considered indecent by the two men?
Hao Xue didn't want to challenge Shui Wuyu's tolerance limit anymore, otherwise it would be easy for the two of them to deal with her, directly block her actions and get rid of her.

But Hao Xue didn't understand why Shuiwuyu couldn't afford to go. He clearly told Chang Geng this morning that he was going to leave.Hao Xue didn't know that Chang Geng was not only looking for someone, but also to inquire about the pet thief.

Before in Xianglai City, Feng Feina used Hao Xue to steal things. She even dared to break into the government office, but she stole the things and returned them. The behavior was strange.Now they are breaking into houses and stealing things everywhere, but they only steal pets and don't touch money. Don't you think it's strange?Could this behavior be done by the same person?

Shui Wuyu suspects that it has something to do with Feng Feina, so naturally he wants to investigate any doubts.

In the evening, when Chang Geng came back, Hao Xue always felt that the master and servant were busy, and she lingered outside the room at night, afraid that they would leave suddenly.Not long after, Chang Geng came out and saw Hao Xue guarding outside the door.

Hao Xue didn't avoid being bumped into, and asked Chang Geng: "Master Chang Geng, do you have anything to do? I'll follow too, okay? Don't worry, I'll be fine!"

Hao Xue clasped her hands together, looked at Chang Geng pitifully, and begged him, please!
