Several people went to the school's monitoring room together, followed by Lin Xi and Xiao Ren.

The school monitoring room is managed by a dedicated teacher, and most of the time it is staffed by the student council.Lie Que also belonged to the student union of the school, and he knew many people in it, so he explained his purpose in two or three sentences.

The student on duty helped him call out today's surveillance, looked at it and said: "The surveillance in the studio on the second floor was broken yesterday, and it hasn't been repaired in time, but the one in the corridor is not broken. This studio is a bit big, probably only See that door ahead."

"Is there no surveillance system installed at the back door?" Lie Que asked.

"No." The squad leader explained: "No one usually enters this studio, and only puts things in it during activities. I put paintings in twice in the morning, and I was with a few classmates of the same major. .”

Their eyes fell on the surveillance video, which showed the time before the first class.The squad leader brought a few students into the studio, ran back and forth twice, and left within a few minutes.Immediately after the break of the second class, the class leader took a classmate in to count the works of this competition.

In these two videos, no one took the painting out of the studio.

"Strange." Lin Xi said, "It doesn't really disappear out of thin air, does it?"

Xiao Ren glanced at Qiu Luan and asked him: "Qiu Luan, have you really paid it? Don't make a mistake."

Qiu Luan replied very positively: "I really paid it, and the squad leader can testify."

Xiao Ren wanted to say something, but Lie Que gave him a sideways look, and had no choice but to swallow the words that came to his lips.

"Can I see other things?" Lie Que asked the student on duty, and only after obtaining his permission did he go to check the surveillance video in other places, and several people standing behind followed suit.

Lie Que watched very quickly. He noticed that a boy who had entered the studio with the squad leader appeared several times on the surveillance camera in the corridor.But because he always lowered his head and hooked his back, and was dressed in simple clothes, he looked very inconspicuous, so he didn't attract attention.

"It seems that I can't find it in the surveillance, so let's think of another way." Lie Que didn't directly point out the boy, but switched to the very first video, and took a step back to get out of the way.

"The person who stole the painting must have gone through the back door, that's why he didn't appear in the surveillance." The squad leader said while thinking, "And, this person must have participated in this competition."

Xiao Ren was glanced at by him, and hurriedly said: "Don't look at me, I didn't go to that studio with the monitor today."

"It's not necessarily someone who has been to that studio, after all, it's too obvious to do so." Although the squad leader felt that Xiao Ren in front of him was a little suspicious, he didn't name him. Tell the teacher about it, if you still can’t find it in the end, see if you can give it a few days and let you draw another one.”

Qiu Luan quickly nodded his thanks: "Thank you monitor."

Lie Que also thanked Qiu Luan: "Then I will trouble you."

"It's okay, this is what I should do." The squad leader said: "Besides, I also can't understand some people playing dirty tricks behind their backs, and they don't even know how much they are."

Xiao Ren who was standing aside heard this, his expression sank slightly.

Coming out of the school monitoring room, Lie Que didn't leave immediately, but waited for Lin Xi and Xiao Ren to leave, and together with Qiu Luan had a private chat with the class monitor.

"May I ask, who are the people who entered that studio today?"

"Okay." The squad leader began to tell him the names of those people next to each other, and then asked: "What's wrong? You suspect they stole it? But they didn't sign up for this competition, there is no reason."

"not a single one?"

The squad leader replied very definitely: "No."

"Okay." Lie Que thought for a while and said, "Then I'll ask them if they have seen any suspicious people."

"You guys go, they should still be in the studio on the fifth floor right now, I'll go to the teacher first."

"Wait a minute, hello, can I add a friend?" Lie Que suddenly called out to him: "I want to trouble you for a favor."

"Of course, I will tell you when I have news."

After separating from the class monitor, they turned back to the teaching building of the art department.According to the impression left after watching the surveillance, Lie Que found the unremarkable boy he had seen in the video.

The man was wearing a plaid shirt, his hair was a little shaggy and messy, and he wore thick glasses.Hearing that they were looking for him, he raised his head blankly.

"What's the matter?" He looked very restrained, and spoke very quietly, his eyes scanned the two people in front of him, and finally looked at Qiu Luan: "Qiu Luan, you are looking for me?"

Qiu Luan only remembered the classmate's surname Yu, but not his name, and asked gently, "Hi, classmate Yu. I heard from the class monitor that you went to the studio on the second floor with him this morning, right?"

Classmate Yu nodded: "Well, the monitor asked me to help."

Qiu Luan then asked: "Then do you still remember who touched my painting?"

"Let's think about it..." Student Yu thought for a moment, and said, "The monitor has touched it, but there seems to be no one else."

"Oh." Qiu Luan turned his head and exchanged glances with Lie Que, thanked him, and left the studio together.

They walked to the corner of the corridor outside, away from the studio, and Qiu Luan spoke again: "The squad leader is a very nice person, it's impossible for the squad leader to do this."

"It's not him." Lie Que said.

Seeing his certainty in his tone, Qiu Luan couldn't help feeling curious: "A Que, do you know who it is?"

Lie Que made a gesture to silence him, then pulled Qiu Luan to his side, and glanced at the figure coming out of the studio from the corner of his eye.Qiu Luan followed his gaze and found that it was the classmate Yu who had just spoken.

"Come and have a look."

The two quietly followed behind, followed classmate Yu downstairs, and came to a small forest behind the teaching building.

There is a small pavilion in the forest with stone tables and benches.After arriving at the small pavilion, student Yu stopped, bowed his head and took out his mobile phone from his bag, as if he was waiting for someone.

After a while, the person he was waiting for appeared, looking around while walking into the pavilion.

Qiu Luan squatted down to hide, and when he saw the man's back, he was startled: "Xiao Ren..."

Lie Que had guessed in his heart from the very beginning, either he or that Lin Xi.So after seeing Xiao Ren appearing, he didn't act too surprised.

"Why did they meet here secretly? Could it be..." Qiu Luan frowned slightly. Could it be that Xiao Ren stole his painting?But I have never offended him, Qiu Luan couldn't figure out why the other party would do this.

"We'll go out after they finish talking." Lie Que whispered in Qiu Luan's ear, "Don't worry, I'll help you find the painting."

Hearing these words, most of Qiu Luan's worries disappeared.But he wasn't sure if the recovered painting was intact.

The two people in the small pavilion didn't chat for too long. After about 5 minutes, Yu student left first, and Xiao Ren also left the small forest shortly after him.

"Come on, let's go out too."

Lie Que walked in front, holding Qiu Luan with one hand.He deliberately took a shortcut and met Xiao Ren head-on.

Seeing them, Xiao Ren was obviously a little guilty, glanced at Qiu Luan uncomfortably, and asked tentatively: "Are you still in school? Did you find the painting?"

Lie Que sighed while shaking his head, and replied for Qiu Luan: "No, it's probably impossible to find it."

"Oh." Xiao Ren said calmly: "You don't have to worry too much. Didn't the class monitor say to go to the teacher? Maybe the teacher will give Qiu Luan a few days' grace and ask him to draw a new one and submit it. I know if Teacher Lianshan will agree to it."

Never agree.

he thought to himself.

"I heard from Qiu Luan that Teacher Lianshan is strict, so I'm afraid it's a bit difficult." Lie Que shook his head again, as if he suddenly remembered something, and asked deliberately: "By the way, did you see someone passing here just now?"

Xiao Ren looked back at the direction he left, and guiltily denied: "No, are you looking for someone?"

"No? Forget it." Lie Que turned his head and said to Qiu Luan: "Let's take Tuan Tuan to the pet hospital first, it must be hungry at home, and we can talk about the painting when your squad leader gets back a message."

"it is good."

The two turned around and walked a few steps. Qiu Luan looked back and saw that Xiao Ren was no longer behind him, and asked his boyfriend in a low voice, "A Que, were you testing him just now?"

Lie Que put his arms around his hand and stroked his hair: "Well, don't worry, with me here, they dare not do anything to you."

After returning, they took Tuantuan to the pet hospital, bathed Tuantuan, dewormed and vaccinated, and bought toys and snacks for the puppy along the way.

When I got home, it was already dark, and Lie Que stayed in the rented house in Qiu Luan as usual.

After taking a bath, Tuantuan was white, fluffy and soft, like a ball of cotton, especially sticky.

Lie Que slumped on the sofa to rest, looked up at Qiu Luan who was playing in the bedroom, and looked down at the message sent to him by the squad leader.

Squad leader: As you guessed, Xiao Ren and Lin Xi both came to ask me.I told them as you said, that the teacher would not give Qiu Luan any extra time, and the painting must be handed in within three days.

Monitor: But, Lie Que, are you really going to ask the teacher?What if the painting can't be found?

The above words were privately sent to the class monitor by Lie Que who added friends today, Qiu Luan didn't know about it for the time being, because he planned to quietly hand in the painting that Qiu Luan gave him.

Lie Que: Actually, Qiu Luan also drew a painting this time, and it is with me. I would like to ask you to help him hand in this painting when the time comes.

Monitor: Really?That's really great, fortunately Qiu Luan drew an extra picture.

Lie Que: But, don't let Lin Xi and the others know about this, thank you.

Monitor: Well, I understand, you're welcome!

After the chat, Lie Que got up and walked into the bedroom.

Maybe it was because he was too tired during the day, Qiu Luan was already lying on the bed and fell asleep, lying beside him, wagging his tail at him with round eyes.

Lie Que pulled the quilt to cover Qiu Luan, bent down and hugged Tuan Tuan into the small nest in the living room.

He turned his head and went to the bathroom, and when he came out, there was no sign of Tuan Tuan in the den.Looking into the bedroom, Tuantuan was lying next to Qiu Luan again - where he slept.

After going back and forth like this for two or three times, Lie Que finally gave up struggling, let Tuan Tuan sleep in the middle, and squeezed himself beside the bed.

The author has something to say: in the future when I have a baby, I will sleep in the middle hhh
