Lao Li Yao woke up his wife, said, did you hear the sound? My wife opened her eyes and said, you often secretly hiccups after I fall asleep, but I want to ask. Lao Li was unhappy, and lowered his voice and said, telling you serious things. Listen, it sounds again.
The wife lifted the quilt, got up quietly, and listened her ears. She lowered her voice and said, like last time, it seems like the sound of the key drilling hole?
that is. Lao Li said that I had a iron rod on the back of the bedroom yesterday. If the thief came in, I would cover the iron rod and you ran to the balcony as soon as possible to call for help.
Will this irritate the thief? Earlier, my wife had seen such news reports on TV. In the end, the owner could not be the thief and was injured. My wife thinks that the most proper way is pretending to fall asleep. Anyway, there is nothing valuable in the house. If you love it, you can take it, as long as you don't hurt people.
That night, the old Li and his wife had never closed their eyes. After dawn, Lao Li found the magnifying glass and repeatedly viewed the door lock several times. Lao Li believes that the key to the people does not match the lock core, but violently cuts the key, leaving new friction marks in the lock hole.
After listening to Lao Li's chess friends, they agreed: The coming is a thief, and first explore the situation in the house. If you don't get up, the thief thinks that there is no one in the house. It won't be long, they will definitely turn back. There was a female resident next door, and she encountered similar encounters last month. On the night of the incident, she heard the sound. Because of sleepy, I didn't get up. As a result, the two ornamental fish that had been raised for several years were stolen and lost tens of thousands of yuan.
The chess friends reminded Lao Li that this time must be strengthened. After dinner, Lao Li went to bed. My wife watched TV in the early morning and walked into the bedroom. As soon as his wife lay down, Lao Li got up. Lao Li shot a pot of water and placed on the bedside desk.
My wife asked, what? Lao Li said, drink tea. In the middle of the night, what kind of tea is drinking and insomnia at night. Lao Li only whispered, it was a response. My wife hesitated, and finally understood the meaning of Lao Li.
Lao Li asked her, if the thief entered the room, do you think it is better to resist or obedient? My wife said, you can scare me, so don't you can in front of the thief?
At night, my wife called several times, and Lao Li refused to sleep. My wife was distressed, and I was afraid that the old Li could not eat. The next day, my wife called her son Xiao Li. The work unit of the couple of the little Li is separated by a road, but it is nearly 40 kilometers away from home. For convenience, they rent a house near the unit.
In the evening, Xiao Li returned. In the days when Xiao Li lived at home, he was abnormal. Because his wife is going to work overtime on weekends, no one cares about children. After get off work on Friday, Xiao Li returned to the rental house to live.
On the night of Xiao Li, there was a noise at the door. After my wife was awakened, I listened carefully. The hearing was the same as Lao Li: someone was locking the hole with the key drill. My wife took out her mobile phone and called the community property, and was called by Lao Li.
Lao Li said, when the thief enters the room, it will be played. At that time, even if you ca n’t catch the crickets, the thief escapes the first day, because it has become a fact that he has committed a crime, and the police will find him sooner or later.
The couple spent another sleeping night. As a result, they were disappointed. After dawn, his wife called Xiao Li and asked Xiao Li to find a way as soon as possible. If you continue like this, your dad's body will be sick. On Monday night, Xiao Li returned. As soon as Xiao Li returned home, he called the property staff.
Xiao Li wants to install a surveillance camera at the door of the house. Property staff disagreed. Xiao Li asked, who is the monitoring at my door, who is it hindered? The property staff told him to consider it, don't have a neighborhood relationship because of a monitoring probe. After the property staff left, the old Li and his wife recalled that the situation occurred on the weekend.
At more than one morning on Saturday, Lao Li heard the sound again. Lao Li stomped to wake up Xiao Li. Xiao Li Lian's shoes couldn't care, and he grabbed the iron rod and opened the door and rushed out. As a result, I didn't see anything.
After dawn, Xiao Li went out to buy food. Xiao Li Gang opened the door and saw a man wearing glasses and big belly. He came out of the door. Xiao Li took the initiative to say hello, just moved it? The man said with a smile, yes, we are neighbors in the future. During the talk, Xiao Li heard a strong taste of wine. The man said, after another day, let's get together and make two cups. Xiao Li laughed and turned downstairs.
Later, Xiao Li quietly posted a note at the door with the word "Li Zhai" on it. Since then, I have never heard a noise again at midnight.
