king x king

There was no response from the door.

King Jin was startled.

Could it be that when he went downstairs just now...

"Baby?!" The toilet door was still locked, and King Jin began to knock on the door.

After a while, the door lock clicked.

Tang Xiaole opened the door on tiptoe, revealing half a small face: "Jin Jin, you didn't admit defeat..."

"I gave up just now, didn't you hear?" King Jin's knees almost gave way.

"I just fell asleep again." Tang Xiaole yawned again. "I didn't hear you."

"I admit defeat." King Jin carried him out of the toilet: "If you are sleepy, sleep a little longer, okay?"

As soon as Tang Le was put on the bed by King Jin, he immediately rolled back into the quilt.

King Jin was in a state of disarray—he went downstairs and checked the door lock just now. The window on the second floor was still broken, but the door to the room was locked...

Nervously, he checked the door lock again, when Tang Le had already fallen asleep again.

King Jin held the phone, pressed the alarm number, stared at the green dial button for a while, and closed the phone again.

nothing.

The baby is still there, unhurt.

Although King Jin's hometown is not an isolated mountain village, the folk customs are simple and honest. Everyone relies on hard work for food. King Jin has never heard of stealing in the village since he was a child. When the weather is hot, someone will put a lazy person at the door. Sleeping in bed, burglary, that is only seen on TV and newspapers.

Tang Le turned over, King Jin didn't dare to relax and stared at the child, for fear that he would suddenly evaporate.

After an unknown amount of time, King Jin almost jumped up from the vibration of the mobile phone.

It was Liang Haofei.

Liang Haofei told him not to leave the room and go downstairs immediately, but after going through the door with Lance and checking it carefully, he knocked on the door of King Jin's room.

Tang Le is still sleeping.

Liang Haofei glanced into the room, and Lance said, "I'll clean up the windows, and you guys get the little one up and send him to school."

Tang Le still didn't know what happened. His little messy hair was dug out by King Jin, and he didn't even wake him up completely by washing his face and brushing his teeth.

Liang Haofei went to the illegal itinerant street vendor at the intersection to buy soy milk and steamed buns. Several adults had breakfast with Tang Le as normal, and they didn't sit down together until King Jin sent him to kindergarten. .

Before, King Jin only briefly said on the phone that his home might have been burglarized, but now that King Jin told the details again, Liang Haofei, who was as tough as he was, couldn't help showing a look of fear.

If it was an ordinary burglary, it can only be said that the thief picked the right time, Rhodes was making a movie, Liang Haofei was at work, and Lance was not there—and usually, no matter what, King Jin and Tang Xiaole would not be the only ones spending the night at home of.

Tang Xiaole, who was three and a half years old, needless to say, King Jin was only a half-baby in the eyes of Liang Haofei and Lance. Fortunately, they didn't wake up in the middle of the night, otherwise if they ran into the thief head-on, the consequences might be very serious.

Lance frowned.

Normally, even if he was not around, there would always be a few little sparrows strolling along Haiyang Road. It just so happened that tonight he sent a few handy sparrows to help Tao Chuan find out what was going on.

The three of them counted separately, and there was no sign that the rooms of Lance and Liang Haofei had been pried open, and the only thing that had been turned over was the study.

The big desk was in a mess, and some books were scattered on the floor, but the big thick books on the upper shelf were still quietly in place.

"You put the chronicle here?"

King Jin turned to look at him.

"I can feel it." Lance said, "It seems that Rhodes trusts you very much.

"What do you mean Rhodes trusts me?" King Jin said while dragging the chair.

"The chronicle is very important to us—or extremely important." Lance said: "The first thing I did when I came here was to negotiate terms with Tao Chuan."

Lance will do his best to help Tao Chuan achieve his various goals. In exchange, Tao Chuan will return the chronicle and guarantee Lance's life here.

"I know." King Jin stood up on the chair: "You have to collect dragon balls... No, you can only go back by collecting these books."

"The significance of the chronicle lies not only in this." Lance watched King Jin unabashedly pull out a large, low-key book. "Do you want me to avoid it?"

Lance knew that Rhode's Chronicle was in this house - but not its exact location.

He has never entered this study, because before he came here, the study was automatically regarded as Rhodes' territory by default.

Out of respect and courtesy between kings, Lance never came here.

"No, no need." King Jin said, opening the big thick book.

Some of the things that were sandwiched in it before, none of them are missing.

Lance caught sight of several bronzing admission letters, but didn't comment on them.

"Aren't you worried that I will secretly take it away in the future?" Lance said, "You only need the chronicle to go back, and you don't need to collect all the kings."

"Rod said that the king is very proud." King Jin closed the book, turned to Lance and said, "And to be honest, he has illegally obtained the right to control this study. According to... well, habits, I guess he will protect All property here."

Lance said, "Like last night?"

King Jin was dumbfounded: "Well - it's a coincidence. He usually doesn't leave home overnight."

Moreover, the training of potatoes and sesame paste was not done well. When he went downstairs in the morning, the two kittens were sleeping on the sofa in the dark, not at all vigilant like they usually curled up at the door of Rhodes' room.

Liang Haofei was basically sure that the unexpected visitor came in from the second floor in the middle of the night—all kinds of locks of the capitalist Grandpa Jin were of good quality, but they were not equipped with anti-smash glass.

"How about installing an anti-theft net in the future?" Liang Haofei removed the broken glass - there are children at home, and it is dangerous to expose those sharp pieces of glass.

King Jin hesitated.

Installing anti-theft nets seems to be a common choice for citizens, but for the country boy King Jin, those dingy anti-theft nets in the city seem to cover every window that is lit, as if everyone lives in a crowded place. In a carved cage next to each other.

"I'm going to consult with the decoration company today." King Jin said, "Before that, do you want to install another piece of glass?"

Liang Haofei waved his hand: "It's simple, I'll go and buy a piece and come back."

Lance looked carefully at the lock on the French window.

"If the ones who came last night were thieves, didn't they return empty-handed?"

King Jin was taken aback.

They checked back and forth and sure enough nothing was missing.

As the saying goes, thieves never leave empty space. Although there is no such thing as a safe at home, the refrigerator, microwave oven and TV that come with the house are very good, and they are all safe and sound.

"Maybe it's because the appliances are too big for them to move around?"

Lance and Liang Haofei looked at him together.

"Okay, I said something stupid." King Jin said depressedly.

Although Liang Haofei worked all night, as the only man in the house who could repair windows, he still washed his face and went out.

King Jin huddled on the sofa, watching Lance pour the canned coffee into the cup: "Do you have to do this?"

Lance raised his glass and said: "This is my biggest concession. This kind of drink is more suitable for me."

"I didn't notice any suspicious sounds." King Jin mentioned Potato Shunmao: "I used to be very vigilant..."

Lance lowered his eyes: "Do you think that is a thief?"

King Jin: "?"

"Unless the house is really barren, there won't be such a polite thief." Lance said: "But we can find very few clues."

"Or nothing at all," King Jin said. "They left only glass shards."

"Every residence of Tao Chuan has prepared for this kind of thing, but there has never been a real break-in." Lance said.

"I'm a pauper." King Jin said, "But I also admit that this kind of house is very conspicuous in L City."

Today, when housing prices are soaring, the value of Grandpa Jin's house can make King Jin's mind completely blank for a moment when he knows it for the first time.

It's not that there are no better and more luxurious houses in L City, but people gather in high-end residential areas with properties, and Haiyang Road is just an ordinary residential street.

"Tao Jia is one of the best in L City, and the reason no one smashed the glass is because their family is a gangster." King Jin said, "I'll go check it out, and just install an anti-theft net. I don't know how the thieves in the city are located. As for the goal, it’s better to be careful yourself.”

Lance said, "It would be great if it was a thief."

King Jin turned his head to stare at him.

"Because if it wasn't for thieves, there would be more headaches," Lance said.

"I would like to hear more about it." King Jin casually scratched Potato's chin.

"Your chronicle is in the study, the only place where it is searched."

King Jin looked up.

"Didn't you say—" King Jin was a little overwhelmed: "Could it be... um, your fellow villagers?"

"Other kings." Lance put the cup on: "This is worse than a thief."

King Jin said, "You don't sound like you're talking about fellow countrymen."

"Do you think that if you come from the same place, you must be an ally?" Lance looked up at him: "You are still very young."

King Jin: "Although your contemptuous eyes are a bit obvious, I decided to ask without shame: Do you kings still engage in small gangs?"

"There are many countries in Salimon, but only the truly powerful countries can have chronicles, so they can be sent over. Do you think it is possible for these countries to coexist peacefully?"

"I think you have a good relationship with Rhodes and Lin Ling." King Jin scratched his head: "Or do you mean that you really don't agree with each other?"

"It's luck to meet Rhodes and Ling first." Lance said: "Although Ling has an unpleasant personality, we have been allies since our grandfather's generation."

"There are also some kings, not only their personalities are annoying, we can't make friends with everyone." Lance frowned slightly: "If the target of the people last night was Rhodes' chronicle, then the behavior of not going through the door That's enough to explain everything."

"Wait." King Jin said, "Didn't you just feel the chronicle as soon as you entered the door? If it is really what you guessed, then why is the chronicle still there?"

"Only a king can feel it," said Lance. "Aren't you too young to know the word minion?"

King Jin: "..."

"This is just a guess, because the clues are not enough for me to reason rationally." Lance said: "Maybe a thief who is really fighting alone can't lift the refrigerator."

"Maybe there are other possibilities." Lance said: "But anyway, you'd better tell Rhodes that his illegal territory has been violated, and the king is very concerned about this kind of thing."

"I will." King Jin recalled the missed phone call in the morning, and endured the sudden unhappiness in his heart: "If you can tell him."
