Chapter 85 Catching the Thief

Gu Rong was much calmer. He squeezed Pei Tiantian's little fleshy hand soothingly and took her back to the classroom.

Then he took out his notebook and wrote: "I already know who the thief is."

"Who? How did you know?" Pei Tiantian's grape eyes widened.

Haven’t the villain boss been with her all the time? How did he know about it?

Gu Rong lowered his eyes.

He already had a guess in his mind.

Sitting at the table in front of him, there were two twin brothers, Lei Gan and Lei Kun.

They often stole other people's rice cups, and Gu Rong saw them several times.

 Gu Rong has a very good memory. He clearly remembers the general characteristics of the enamel cups that Lei Gan and Lei Kun put on the table.

The two enamel cups that were left on the stove just now, the marks left on the handles were obviously exactly the same as the enamel cups of the twin brothers.

"The two people who stole our food are named Lei Gan and Lei Kun. They should be in Class 1 of the third grade now."

Gu Rong wrote.

Pei Tiantian looked at this line of words and said, "Brother Gu Rong, do you know those two people? Are they your former classmates?"

Gu Rong nodded.

Pei Tiantian understood, so she took Gu Rong and angrily went to find two people to settle accounts.

Unexpectedly, after waiting for a long time at the gate of Class 1, Grade 3, no twins appeared.

But the classmates of Gu Rong's original classes recognized him, and they all looked a little complicated.

They all thought that Gu Rong would never come back after dropping out of school. Unexpectedly, he not only returned to school, but even skipped to the fifth grade.

Pei Tiantian asked many classmates in this class where Lei Kun and Lei Gan were.

They all said they didn’t know.

It was almost time for class in the afternoon, when Pei Tiantian and Gu Rong finally blocked the two twins.

Lei Gan and Lei Kun found a shelter outside to finish their meal. They were afraid that Gu Rong, who had stolen their meal, would come to them, so they wanted to wait until class time before sneaking back in.

Unexpectedly, I met Pei Tiantian and Gu Rong as soon as I came back.

The two of them were ready to run.

Gu Rong stepped forward quickly, pulled off Lei Gan's canvas bag and threw it on the ground.

The enamel cups inside all rolled out, making a "ping-ping-ping-pong" sound.

Lei Gan and Lei Kun's faces instantly turned pale.

“Why do Lei Gan and the others have four enamel cups?”

"No wonder Gu Rong suddenly found this place. Could it be that he stole it?"

Pei Tiantian picked up the two enamel cups she and Gu Rong had. After opening them, they were indeed empty and had been eaten cleanly.

She asked Lei Gan and Lei Kun: "Why are the enamel cups with our names engraved on them in your bags? Are you two the ones who stole our food?"

“We didn’t steal it, we picked it up.”

Lei Kun frowned and said, his eyes twinkling guiltily.

Lei Gan's mind turned quickly and he immediately agreed: "Yes, your rice was stolen and the rice cups were thrown on the roadside dam. We kindly picked them up and were about to take them back to you, but you came to accuse us unjustly." us!"

It’s good to hit and rake one at a time.

Pei Tiantian’s mouth twitched.

She didn’t expect that these two brothers would be so shameless after being caught.

A hint of ridicule flashed in Gu Rong's eyes, and he also expected that these two people would refuse to admit their guilt.

Just at this time, Hu Weiguo, the head teacher of Class 1, Grade 3, also came and asked in confusion: "What are you doing?"

Pei Tiantian immediately took two enamel cups and complained: "The two of them stole my and Brother Gu Rong's food, and they still refuse to admit it."

“We didn’t, we just picked up their enamel cups, we didn’t steal their food.”

Lei Kun said quickly.

 Hu Weiguo's eyes rested on the enamel cup held by Pei Tiantian, with his name engraved on it.

Then he turned his head and glanced at the two Lei brothers. Both of them felt guilty and did not dare to look at him.

Hu Weiguo's heart skipped a beat and he said, "Lei Gan Lei Kun, you still don't admit your mistake? The teacher also saw it at noon today. You used these two enamel cups to eat."

Lei Gan and Lei Kun were suddenly shocked, and their expressions changed again and again.

They didn’t expect that Hu Weiguo actually saw it with his own eyes.

Like two defeated roosters, the two men admitted the theft sadly, saying that they wanted to eat better, so they took Gu Rong and Pei Tiantian's rice.

Hu Weiguo’s face darkened for a moment.

Actually, he didn't see any enamel cups that Lei Qian and Lei Kun used to eat.

He just deceived them, but he didn't expect it to happen.

Hu Weiguo immediately asked Lei Gan and Lei Kun to apologize to Gu Rong and Pei Tiantian, and then severely criticized this behavior in front of everyone in Class 1 of the third grade.

The classmates in the class looked at Lei Gan and Lei Kun with extremely contemptuous eyes.

Lei Gan and Lei Kun sat in the classroom with gloomy faces, not daring to raise their heads all day long.

Pei Tiantian is quite satisfied with this result.

But this also made her realize that it was not convenient to bring rice to school to steam it.

If this happens again next time, it will not be so easy for them to find the thief.

So when school was over in the afternoon, Pei Tiantian and Gu Rong went to Xie Jiagui's restaurant.

Xie Jiagui's restaurant is only two blocks away from the elementary school, which is very close.

Pei Tiantian discussed with Xie Jiagui about eating at his place every noon from now on.

Zhou Wanhong and Xie Jiagui learned that Pei Tiantian and Gu Rong had their meals stolen on the first day, and they immediately felt sorry for these two little brats.

Xie Jiagui went to the pot on the stove in the back kitchen and gave each of them a large braised chicken leg for them to nibble on.

Pei Tiantian grabbed the braised chicken leg with her two small meaty hands and ate it with big mouthfuls.

The braised chicken legs are soft but not woody, the meat is fresh and tender, and the juice comes out when you take a bite.

Pei Tiantian was so happy eating that her two short legs kept shaking.

After eating, my little face was covered with brine, and I turned into a little cat.

Zhou Wanhong took a clean handkerchief and wiped her face and hands clean.

Xie Jiagui looked at Pei Tiantian with a smile.

He heard from Zhou Wanhong today that Pei Tiantian and Gu Rong were already studying in school, and they were still in the fifth grade after skipping a grade.

He was shocked for a long time at first, but he soon figured it out.

It’s not surprising that Tiantian is so smart. After all, which five-year-old child can treat people.

Pei Tiantian also negotiated with Xie Jiagui to give him fifty yuan a month for food.

Xie Jiagui shook his head and refused to take it.

In his opinion, Gu Rong and Pei Tiantian are just two children, and the children cannot eat much at all.

Seeing that Xie Jiagui still refused to give money, Pei Tiantian had no choice but to give up.

At this moment, a man in his thirties came to the store

Xie Jiagui hurriedly went up to greet him and recorded his order with pen and paper.

The man spoke a few words, but his accent didn't sound like people here.

Pei Tiantian unconsciously glanced at him a few more times.
