Chapter 138 Ruyi lost
"My luck is gone!"
In the early morning, several sleepy students who were getting up early were about to lie on the table and take a break for a while, they were frightened by the sudden scream, and their remaining sleepiness was instantly dispelled.
"What's going on? Ruyi is gone?" Gu Huaishhao looked shaky when he heard this, and walked to Gu Mingan who was looking for him in a panic. "When did he disappear? Did he forget it?"
"I put it in the desk drawer when I got off school yesterday evening, and it disappeared early this morning."
Gu Mingan frowned, looking anxious and worried: "This Ruyi has the miraculous effect of turning luck. I just made my school run a little better yesterday, but I lost it today. How could it be such a coincidence?"
"No matter how hard you look for it, you may not be lost. What if you put it in the bookcase last night?" Gu Huaishao comforted him while picking up Gu Ming'an's still neat bookcase, "Look, look
, You haven't found this bookcase yet, maybe it's here, don't be too pessimistic..."
"I've searched for the bookcase, no." Looking at Gu Huaishhao's actions of rummaging through the bookcase, Gu Mingan seemed a little absent-minded. After responding casually, his eyes were igniting around intentionally or unintentionally.
"It's true." After turning over the bookcase, he still couldn't find it. Gu Huaishhao's face became serious, "Can anyone take it away and didn't tell you?"
Wu Qimo sneered: "What do you mean to take it away and didn't tell him? Isn't that just stealing? This wish is so expensive and has the miraculous effect of fortune. Yesterday, Gu Mingan was so arrogant, and he might be missed by a thief!"
As he said that, his eyes turned twice: "This is a school, and servants and maids usually don't come over. The thieves outside cannot come in, and Mr. Chen is not aware of this. He knows that you have the best, and knows
The only ones who left Ruyi in the school last night were we present..."
"Since Ruyi was still there when I got off school yesterday, this thief must have waited for everyone to leave before stealing Ruyi." After making a clue, Wu Qimo suddenly felt hope and turned to look at Gu Ming'an, "Gu Ming'an
,Who did you leave yesterday? Who else did the school when you left? As long as you find someone who left the school later than you, we can quickly pull out the thief!"
Gu Mingan sighed, and his eyebrows remained worried: "I reviewed my homework for a while yesterday, and was the last one to leave. At that time, there was no one else in the school except me..."
"What should I do? Will the clue be cut off in this way?" Wu Qimo could not think of any other way for a moment, and frowned and fell silent.
Seeing that Wu Qimo was not speaking for a long time, it seemed that he was really stumped. Gu Ming'an cursed a fool in his heart. He couldn't wait, so he had to speak by himself and pretended to remind him unintentionally: "...This thief is not necessarily the case.
He wants to stay for the end. He can wait for everyone to leave and then turn back, so that it will not be easily discovered..."
"It makes sense!" Wu Qimo's eyes lit up, but soon dimmed again, "But how can we know who returned?"
“…”
Gu Ming'an's qi and blood stagnated, and he was so stupid that he almost rattled over. He almost wanted to yell at him immediately. Fortunately, Xue Yue, who was beside him, interrupted at the right time and helped him press the impulse.
:
"It's not simple? The school is close to the southeast gate, and it is the fastest to leave Gu's mansion from there. Just ask the servants at the door, don't you know who has been back?"
"But... I can think of it, and people can definitely think of it. If we people from the outside world want to steal Ruyi, the risk is too great." Speaking of this, Xue Yue paused, his tone was meaningful, "So I
I think it is more convenient for people in Gu's house to commit crimes, maybe they are thieves..."
Gu Huaishhao didn't expect that he was also suspicious. He heard this and suffocated his breath, his eyes were full of panic, and he waved his hands repeatedly to deny: "Cousin Ming'an, no, it's not me! I didn't steal!"
"——Look, I have nothing." Gu Huaishao was a person who couldn't hide his own affairs and was eager to prove his innocence. Without waiting for Gu Ming'an to ask questions, he took the initiative to open the bookbox in front of everyone and flipped through the things inside.
He was confused, afraid that others would misunderstand him.
Seeing this, the other children of the Gu family also followed Gu Huaishao's appearance and opened their bookcases for Gu Ming'an to check, but they did not find Ruyi.
In this way, except for Gu Mingan himself, who lived in Gu's house and had not checked the bookcase, there were only Gu Yunji and Cheng Yan.
Feeling the eyes of everyone falling on him and Cheng Yan, Gu Yunji's heart couldn't help but sink.
Just now, Gu Mingan said that Ruyi was gone, and Gu Yunji had a bad premonition. Later, he saw him pretending to act all morning, and he still pointed his finger at him and Cheng Yan...or, only Cheng Yan.
After wandering around for so long, he finally had a legitimate doubt on Cheng Yan's head. Gu Ming'an felt relieved and couldn't wait to walk to his desk, saying maliciously: "Mr. Cheng, take out the bookcase for us."
Let's see, do you still need me to urge me?”
Gu Yunji stepped forward quietly and stopped Gu Mingan's figure: "Cousin Mingan, why are you anxious? You haven't even read my bookcase yet, why is it Cheng Yan's turn?"
"It's not all the same, is there any difference?" Gu Ming'an raised his eyebrows and responded with kindness, "Okay, okay, then let's look at you first."
"I'm sure you're looking—these are the four treasures of the study: pen, ink, paper, and inkstone; these are the four books: "The Great Learning", "The Doctrine of the Mean", "Mencius", and "The Analects of Confucius". These are the homework assigned by Mr. Chen yesterday; these are the things in recent years
Test questions set…”
Gu Yunji was not in a hurry at all. He slowly took out the things in the bookcase and lit them one by one in front of everyone. Then he carefully put them back and arranged them neatly, with his movements slow down, as if he was dragging down time.
"Gu Yunji, what are you talking about?" Gu Mingan patiently ran out of his bookcase, snatching all the things inside. "Just let us see clearly like this? Just flip through the bookcase, use
Do you need this long?"
After Gu Yunji's bookcase was checked, Ruyi was still not found. Now only Cheng Yan's one is left. Whether he stole it, the result will be revealed immediately.
For a moment, everyone's throats rolled, their hearts were both nervous and expectant, and their burning eyes seemed to be stuck on Cheng Yan's bookcase, staring at the action of him rummaging without blinking.
Cheng Yan's expression remained unchanged, and calmly took out the things inside to everyone in sequence: brushes, rice paper, books, rulers... one after another, with the last inkstone falling on the table,
The bookcase is empty - there is still no wish.
Seeing this, the burning excitement in everyone's eyes instantly extinguished.
Gu Yunji let out a breath of inconspicuousness. Before he could completely let go of his heart, he heard a voice in his ear: "It doesn't mean anything if you haven't found it in the bookcase. If you hide somewhere else
What about? At least I have to search the room where Cheng Yan lives so that I can feel completely relieved.”
