C1013 Explain It
Qian Bin thought for a moment and said, "That night, everyone was supposed to be asleep. But we suddenly heard a noise downstairs. We didn't pay much attention to it. We thought it was your parents who got up to pick up something. "
"But then, the more I heard, the more strange it became. So, Brother Zhou went downstairs to take a look. He saw a black shadow rummaging through the things in your house downstairs. Brother Zhou said that no matter how you looked at it, it didn't look like your family, so he wanted to take down the black shadow."
Qian Bin sighed softly. "But Brother Zhou found that the figure was very familiar, and the places you guys went over weren't messed up. They were still neatly placed in their original positions. " This means that this person is very familiar with the situation in your house. "
"In order not to alert the enemy, Brother Zhou decided to follow the black shadow and see what he wants to do, so he asked me to get up and go out to take a look. " Originally, we planned to investigate together, but thinking of the worry that you guys are worried about, I stayed. "
Qian Bin roughly narrated the story, while Zhang Yan was confused by what he heard. "A black shadow came to our house to steal something. How could such a thing happen? " Our village can do it at night. "
Heita was surprised. He knew hundreds of people in the village. Wasn't Qian Bin's story a little too ridiculous?
But Qian Bin did not blush at all. He said calmly, " Yes, it should be like this. When Brother Zhou told me, he was in a panic. There are some things that I did not hear very clearly."
Qian Bin pretended to recall what had happened before. "At that time, he ran out while talking. When I followed him out, I did indeed see a black shadow in front of me."
"Then why did he do that at that time? Why didn't you guys tell me? When the police came to ask, you should have said it." Zhang Yan was frightened in her heart. How could such a thing happen?
"We are soldiers. We can't talk without evidence, not to mention that black shadow. He. He."
"What happened to him?"
"He seems to be from your village," Wang Yao said.
Zhang Yan was stunned. She stared at Qian Bin in a daze. "Our village? Who is in our village?"
Qian Bin didn't say anything. He only gave Zhang Yan an expression that said 'guess yourself'. Zhang Yan suddenly had a flash of inspiration. "You're saying that the black shadow is a scholar."
Qian Bin sighed. "We just feel that the shadow looks a bit similar, so that's why we didn't say it out loud."
"It's not like you don't know that the people in your village have great respect for the scholar. " Before we have any evidence, we don't want to accuse the hero in your hearts. "
Zhang Yan was stunned by Qian Bin's bluff. She really thought that Zhou Zhuo saw the scholar stealing that night.
However, Zhang Yan still didn't quite believe it. She muttered to herself, "Why did the scholar steal something from our house? Our family doesn't have anything valuable."
Although Zhang Yan's voice wasn't very loud, Qian Bin and the others heard it. "I'm not too sure about that. Brother Zhou only said it vaguely that night."
"But when I ran out, I did indeed see a black shadow in front of me. I'm not too sure if it was a scholar or not. " So, how do you want me to tell the police about this? "
Qian Bin's words were right and reasonable. So Zhang Yan really believed it." I've known scholars for so many years, but he doesn't seem like this kind of person.
He saw that Zhang Yan was already completely intimidated by Qian Bin. Chu Yun poked Heita with his elbow and told them to stop when they saw the good side. They must not reveal any flaws.
Heita went forward and advised, "Well, Miss Zhang. Qian Bin was not sure if the figure in the darkness was a scholar. That's why he didn't say it out loud to avoid wrongly accusing a good person."
"Furthermore, Brother Zhou is missing now. That's why we don't know what happened that night. All of our guesses are just guesses. Don't take it to heart. "
"I think the most important thing for us right now is to find Brother Zhou. After we find Brother Zhou, we'll know the truth about that night. " Heita's eyes showed sincerity, which made Zhang Yan agree with Heita.
After all, what Heita said was reasonable. Qian Bin's words did not have any solid evidence, and Qian Bin only said that he saw something similar to a black shadow after he came out.
Everything that had happened just now was just a guess. It was impossible to conclude that Zhou Zhuo's disappearance was related to the scholar just because of this. Since it had nothing to do with him, everyone would temporarily end this topic.
However, Zhang Yan's heart was somewhat restless. If Zhou Zhuo had really gone missing in pursuit of a black shadow, then Zhou Zhuo must have already encountered danger. Zhang Yan began to worry in her heart again.
"Then what should we do now? Brother Zhou's things fell here. Is there anything underneath that can be seen with just a glance? "Then are we going up or going back?"
Zhang Yan didn't know what to do next. After all, although it was a pit, it wasn't deep. If someone really fell, they would be able to see it no matter what. But now that everyone had looked down, they didn't see anyone.
In fact, Chu Yun didn't know what to do next. At first, he just wanted to use Zhang Yan's relationship to get a better understanding of the geography of Yan Village. He really didn't expect to pick up Zhou Zhuo's things here.1
Initially, Chu Yun planned to take advantage of the night to run into the scholar's house to take a look. But now, he really didn't know where to go. However, since he had picked up Zhou Zhuo's things here, then Zhou Zhuo must have come here before.
Since Zhou Zhuo had been here before, then they should be able to continue searching. Moreover, no matter what, they had to find a way to go to the scholar's house to take a look.
Chu Yun had a plan in mind, so he decided to follow his plan. After all, there was still a long time before dark. Chu Yun decided to bring everyone up again.
"Where is the reservoir?" Zhang Yan was going to take them to see the reservoir. Then they should go and take a look. Anyway, it was still early.
Zhang Yan pointed ahead. "The reservoir is on a platform not far ahead. We'll be able to reach it after walking a little further."
"Why is the reservoir built here?" Heita looked at the place not far away and asked curiously.
