Chapter 1077: The stupidest thief in history
It had been several days since Ling Hong took away Wu Hai's paintings. However, only Ling Hong, grandfather Ling, Yuan Zhou, Jiang Changxi and Yin ya knew about this.
However, none of them said anything about it being a pity. They just watched Ling Hong throw the canvas into the orange flame silently until only some black ashes were left.
That's right. Ling Hong took a video of the fever and then sent it to everyone.
After all, this was Wu Hai's painstaking effort and he should let everyone see it.
In the early morning, Yuan Zhou woke up at 5:00 as usual. With his eyes wide open, he stared at the black ceiling and was stunned for a while before he turned over and got up.
"Whoosh." Yuan Zhou pulled open the curtain and looked outside.
This was Yuan Zhou's habit. Ever since he knew that the granny would come to clean in the morning, the first thing he did when he woke up was to pull open the curtains.
It was like a tacit understanding, just like how the old lady always left after cleaning.
After pulling open the curtain, Yuan Zhou directly turned around and went to wash up. Then, he changed into his sportswear in the bathroom and returned to his room to tidy up his appearance.
However, it seemed to be a little special today. Yuan Zhou and Zhao Wang stood behind the mirror and pulled open the curtain. They stood by the window and looked at the opposite side with their eyes wide open.
"Are my eyes playing tricks on me?" Yuan Zhou touched his forehead and felt a little puzzled.
At 5:20 am, the sky was starting to get bright, but the sky was still a little dark. There were no street lights on this Street.
The lanterns were only hung on the first floor. Therefore, it was still foggy when he looked at the opposite side. However, Yuan Zhou's eyesight had always been extraordinary.
Therefore, Yuan Zhou could clearly see that the window of Wu Hai's room was half open. There was a sliding ladder connected to the window and on the ladder, there was a person.
"That's a human, right? a cat can't be that big. " Yuan Zhou frowned.
Wu Hai's ladder was like a child's play, except that the slope was slightly higher. However, there were safety guardrails on both sides. In case that he couldn't come down in the rainy day, he even made an arch in the middle of the ladder to block the rain.
The person that Yuan Zhou saw was right in the shelter of the arch.
That's right. The cover was transparent. Therefore, Yuan Zhou could see the situation inside.
"Let's go take a look. " Yuan Zhou was quite sure that the person in the shade wasn't Wu Hai. After all, his figure was different.
"Ta ta ta," Yuan Zhou went downstairs quickly and directly opened the partition of the kitchen. Then, he pulled open the rolled-up Curtain Door of the main entrance.
Speaking of which, broth and the rice didn't come to the front door to guard the restaurant recently because they were accompanying Yuan Zhou. Therefore, the entrance was very clean and refreshing. There was also no one on the street.
Yuan Zhou walked quickly to the bottom of the slide ladder and directly raised his head.
Then, Yuan Zhou was sure that it was indeed a person. Moreover, it didn't seem to be someone he knew.
The man wasn't fat, but he probably climbed in the wrong place. His right leg was curled up in front of his chest, and his left leg was under the slide ladder. Half of his head was hidden under the shelter. His left hand was holding the edge of the shelter, and his right hand was holding a phone to his face.
It was obvious that this position was very painful, but the man remained silent.
Moreover, Yuan Zhou could even see the sweat rolling down from the man's head. Then, Yuan Zhou fell silent.
"Is this a thief?" Yuan Zhou said in his heart.
"Ta ta ta." Just when Yuan Zhou was staring at the thief in silence, a series of footsteps were heard.
"Boss Yuan, you came here so early today." Huang Ling came over with some cleaning tools and greeted him.
"He didn't run." Yuan Zhou turned his head and looked at Huang Ling.
"Boss Yuan, What are you looking at? are you waiting for brother Wu to run together?" Huang Ling looked around curiously and then asked with a smile.
"No." Yuan Zhou said immediately.
"There's someone up there. It's not Wu Hai," Before Huang Ling continued, Yuan Zhou pointed at the slide ladder and said.
"Ah? Someone's there?" Huang Ling was shocked and looked up in panic.
As the sky was dark, it was easy to miss the person hiding in the shadows if one did not pay attention. However, if one looked closely, they could clearly see the dark figure.
However, Huang Ling's eyesight wasn't that good. She could still see the man's sweaty face.
"Oh my God, there's really someone here. Who is this? is he a thief?" Huang Ling immediately became nervous.
"I've never seen this person before. " Yuan Zhou recalled carefully and then said.
"Did he faint? Why aren't you moving or talking?" Huang Ling was wandering around the ladder.
"Maybe he's afraid." Yuan Zhou said after a while of silence.
In fact, it was very easy to judge that this person was a thief. For example, he had already heard the sound of Yuan Zhou walking to the bottom of the slide ladder. Now, Huang Ling was also there. It was very strange that she didn't make any sound even though she was obviously stuck.
From the looks of it, it could only be that he didn't do anything bad and didn't dare to make a big deal out of it.
"No. Boss Yuan, you go and inform the others. I'll keep an eye on this person to prevent him from coming down." Huang Ling directly stood in front of Yuan Zhou and blocked him.
"I just saw director Wu go to his office. Boss Yuan, hurry up." Huang Ling turned around and told him.
"It's fine. He can't get down. He's stuck. " Yuan Zhou felt warm in his heart and said gently.
"It, it's stuck?" Huang Ling was stunned and then asked Yuan Zhou while looking at him.
"Yeah, I think it's stuck in that cover." Yuan Zhou nodded his head and said earnestly.
The two of them discussed the thief on the ladder as if there was no one else around. The sweat on the thief's forehead flowed even more happily, as if it was raining.
"I'm so silly. I could've just called him directly." Huang Ling suddenly slapped her forehead and then took out her phone to make a call.
Huang Ling's explanation was very simple. She just said that there was a thief in front of Yuan Zhou's restaurant. Right after she said that, the call was immediately hung up with an exclamation from the other end.
"Director Wu will be here soon." Huang Ling said.
"Okay, let's call the police." Yuan Zhou nodded his head and then said.
"Yes, yes, yes. Call the police. I'll call the police immediately." Huang Ling was about to call 110.
"Pa da, pa da." At this moment, the sound of hurried footsteps could be heard.
The first person who came was director Wu. She was slightly chubby and short of breath. There were three to five older aunties following behind her. They all ran over with her.
"Little Yuan, little boss Yuan, are you alright?" Director Wu asked immediately before he could catch his breath.
"I'm fine. You can rest for a while. " Yuan Zhou took a step forward and then said.
"It's good that you're alright. It's good that you're alright. Where's the thief? he must have eaten a leopard's guts to steal from our Taoxi road." Director Wu looked at Yuan Zhou carefully from head to toe and then waved his hand and said with a fierce expression.
After director Wu said that, several aunties behind her immediately agreed.
"Yes, yes, yes. That's right. Who's so bold as to steal from your restaurant, little boss Yuan?" The Auntie who spoke was the one who threatened the reporter that she couldn't afford to pay for the fall.
"Exactly, where's the thief?"
These people rolled up their sleeves as they spoke, as if they were not going to let anyone go.
"Director Wu, it's over there." Huang Ling pointed at the slide ladder and said.
The few of them immediately looked up. As the sky grew brighter and brighter, the people above were clearly reflected in everyone's eyes.
"What a thief! Get down here! Do you think I can't catch you up there?" Director Wu said angrily.
