Chapter 2222 Chapter 2224 [Thieves also have their ways]


    “No, theft is a major subject, and ordinary people cannot do it.” Bai Zhantang waved his hand after hearing this.


    When Guo Furong heard this, she was immediately disappointed.


    "Otherwise, I will rob the rich from now on, and I will leave it to you to help the poor." Bai Zhantang said after seeing this.


    “Okay, okay.” Guo Furong finally became happy after hearing this.


    “Oops, Big Mouth, Lao Bai is back to his old ways and going back to his old ways again.” The conversation between the two people was not carried away, and the scholar listened to it. After hearing about it, he couldn''t help but feel uneasy and reported the news to Xiang Nan.


    "Even if he comes out of the world again, he won''t be able to steal from you. Why are you so worried?" Xiang Nan waved his hand and said, "Don''t worry, it''ll be fine."


    Hearing what he said, the scholar could only nod his head, "But, Da Zui, can you come back and stay for a few days? I''m really afraid of living alone."


    Seeing that his face turned pale, Xiang Nan had no choice but to nod his head, "Okay, seeing how scared you are, is it worth it?"


    …


    At night, Bai Zhantang put on a tight suit and slipped out quietly.


    "Lao Bai really took action~" Xiucai saw this, biting his fingers and trembling.


    "Don''t be afraid, rabbits don''t eat grass near their nests." Xiang Nan comforted him, "Look, Lao Bai went out to steal it."


    “I hope so.” Lu Xiucai nodded.


    "You two, stop talking nonsense. Brother Bai, this is called robbing the rich to give to the poor. Do you understand that thieves have their own ways? The little money you two have is worth stealing, right?" Guo Furong listened to the two of them behind their backs. Said Lao Bai, scolded unhappily.


    When Xiang Nan saw this, he felt happy.


    Before this, Xiao Guo mostly smiled at him, but now he was making faces at himself. It was obvious that his status in her heart had dropped significantly.


    "Then if a rich man provokes anyone, does he deserve to be stolen?" He then deliberately retorted.


    “…” Guo Furong was startled by the question, and then said with a look of disgust, “I can’t tell you clearly.”


    "You can''t explain clearly because your theory doesn''t make sense at all. The idea that ''there is a way among thieves'' is simply nonsense." Xiang Nan curled his lips and deliberately made Guo Furong angry and said, "Steal something and give it to others. Is that chivalrous?”


    "That''s right, Master once said: If a person is upright, he will not do what he is told. If his body is not upright, he will not obey orders." Lu Xiucai also nodded and said, "Using illegal means to achieve so-called justice, even the word justice has been banned. Defiled."


    "Shut up, you two." Guo Furong shouted angrily.


    "You blocked our mouths, can you block our hearts?" Xiang Nan continued to irritate.


    "Yes, Confucius once said: ''It is better to guard the people''s mouths than to guard the rivers.'' We have the right to speak." Lu Xiucai also said in ink.


    “It’s overwhelming~” Guo Furong couldn’t bear it anymore and couldn’t help but shouted.


    …


    ?At this moment, the door opened and Lao Bai slipped back.


    Guo Furong ignored Xiang Nan and Xiucai, immediately closed her hands and stepped forward to greet them, "How is it, Lao Bai, is the harvest big?"


    ?Lao Bai smiled and then threw her a ring.


    “Did you steal just this one night?” Guo Furong asked in confusion.


    “It’s the smallest thing, but it’s extremely valuable. It’s the most valuable thing in Shopkeeper Qian’s **** shop.” Bai Zhantang explained.


    “Okay, I will exchange it for silver later and distribute it to the poor people around me.” Guo Furong suddenly understood and said with a smile.


    At this moment, there was a knock on the door.


    ??Guo Furong was startled and hurriedly hid the ring finger.


    “Who is it?” Shopkeeper Tong asked loudly.


    "It''s me, open the door." Xing Captou''s voice came in. Lao Bai walked over and opened the door, "Oh, Mr. Xing, it''s so late. What can I do?"


    “Shopkeeper Qian’s pawnshop was just stolen.” Xing Captou explained.


    Everyone was silent for a while after hearing this.


    "Aren''t you surprised?" Xing Captou saw this and asked doubtfully.


    “Oh, I’m surprised, I’m so surprised that I don’t know what to say.” The shopkeeper quickly covered it up.


    "After preliminary investigation, I think it was a domestic thief." Xing Captou said again.


    "No way? How did you see it?" Lu Xiucai said in surprise.


    “The doors and windows are not moved at all, there are no footprints on the ground, and the locks have not been picked, but things have been stolen. If it’s not a domestic thief, who else could it be?” Xing Captou said proudly.


    “Maybe it was a big thief.” Lu Xiucai reminded.


    “A big thief just steals a finger?” Mr. Xing said with a smile, “Okay, I’ll take the guys from the **** shop back to the Yamen first, and then we’ll arrest them.”


    “You have to detain someone without proof?” Guo Furong couldn’t bear to say.


    "Why don''t you have any evidence? They are all suspects." Xing Captou sneered, "I will work overtime tonight to interrogate, you can just wait for my good news tomorrow.


    Haha, little thief, if you get into my hands, I will let you know what it means to repent! "As he said that, he looked up to the sky and laughed twice before leaving.


    "This ring is quite valuable~" Guo Furong took out the ring in her arms and couldn''t help but sigh. She didn''t expect that a ring would bring so much trouble to others.


    …


    After Lao Xing left, Xiang Nan washed up and went to bed.


    When he returned to the house, he saw the scholar wandering around the room like ants on a hot pot.


    "Xiucai, why are you not sleeping yet?" Xiang Nan asked in confusion.


    "Where can I sleep? Big mouth, where do you think I should hide my money and my land deed?" the scholar said in fear.


    ?The most valuable things to him are these dozens of taels of silver and the title deed to Tongfu Inn. If they were stolen, he would really be heartbroken.


    "What else are you hiding? Lao Bai really wants to steal you. Lao Bai can find out wherever you are hiding. Don''t forget, I am the ancestor of thieves." Xiang Nan curled his lips and said, "If Lao Bai doesn''t want to steal you, , even if you put money and land deeds in front of him, he may not even take a glance at it.


    In this case, what else are you hiding? Just be generous and eat and sleep when you need to. Otherwise, before Lao Bai can steal you, you will scare yourself to death first. "


    When Lu Xiucai heard this, he felt it was reasonable and finally relaxed.


    …


    Turn around.


    “Xiao Guo, do you really plan to continue hanging out like this with Lao Bai?” Xiang Nan asked Guo Furong.


    "What do you mean by being a fool? We are robbing the rich and giving to the poor for the benefit of the common people." Guo Furong said dissatisfied.


    “But all the people in the country have been arrested because of you.” Xiang Nan said again.


    “It’s a last resort, they will understand.” Guo Furong was startled, but still said harshly.


    "I locked you up for no reason, to see if you are considerate or not." Xiang Nan rolled his eyes and said.


    “This is called being someone who makes big things happen by not sticking to trivial matters. What do you know?” Guo Furong also said with disdain, feeling that she and Xiang Nan really didn’t agree with each other.


    Just at this moment, Mr. Xing arrived and said, "Big mouth, hurry up and get a bowl of porridge and two pancakes."


    "Okay." Xiang Nan nodded, then served a bowl of porridge, two golden crispy pancakes, and a plate of pickles dripping with sesame oil, "Old Xing, is there any result in Shopkeeper Qian''s theft case? "
