When I arrived at the Jiangsu and Zhejiang guild hall, I had to use a car to transport it. At this time, the most convenient tool was the manual rickshaw. Li Qinglin was about to wave to the car when he left the alley. In order to stop him, Pan Ke said, "When I went out, my wife told me to buy some Shanxi dim sum. When I came here just now, I saw a Shanxi dim sum shop called 'Ji Wancheng' on Guangji Street. Its sign says there are all kinds of Shanxi dim sum. Let's buy snacks first and then go to the Jiangsu and Zhejiang guild hall."

In order to buy snacks for his wife, Li Qinglin naturally would not object. After leaving the alley, Guangji Street was Guangji Street, and the three of them walked out of the alley along Beiguangji Street to Ji Wancheng's snack shop.

Beiguangji Street is also a prosperous area in Xi'an. The streets are crowded with people coming and going, which is very lively. Pan Kewei and others walked forward with the flow of people. Seeing Ji Wancheng's snack shop not far away, Pan Kewei felt a chill on his head.

Pan Kewei reached out and found that his hat suddenly disappeared. He looked around. Except for the pedestrians who were in a hurry, he did not see anyone with a hat in his hand, and even someone with a hat on his head.

Pan Ke was furious. While reaching out to pull the gun to his waist, he cursed: "He is a *mother*, and he is a thief, and he doesn't open his eyes to see who the old man is."

There were many pedestrians on the street, which was really a bit of a rush. Li Qinglin looked around and found that no one seemed very panicked, and no one seemed to be eager to escape. Li Qinglin judged that this little thief should be not far away. If Pan Kewei really took out his gun at this time, the pedestrians would have to be panicked. The real thief might have disappeared in the escaped crowd.

Li Qinglin held Pan Kewei's hand and said, "Brother Pan, don't be impatient. That little thief seems to be still nearby. We can still catch him. The three of us were just walking side by side, and I didn't notice anyone taking action?"

Pan Ke said depressedly: "Me too. I found that the hat was missing, so I immediately turned around and searched everywhere, but I didn't find anyone suspected."

Li Qinglin looked around again and observed carefully. Some empty-handed people were naturally excluded, and some far-distanced people were naturally not within the suspect. Li Qinglin carefully observed people within five to ten meters in front of him and behind him.

After careful observation, Li Qinglin turned around and walked to a young man with a big wooden barrel behind him and said, "Take it out."

"What to take it out?" the young man asked calmly and innocently.

It's June now, and the weather is not very hot, but the young man is now wearing a vest that only wears in summer, and walking with a large wooden barrel on his head. The young man is about eighteen or nineteen years old, but he is not tall, with a tangled muscles all over his body, and looks very strong.

Seeing that he had empty hands and couldn't see where he was hiding his hat, Pan Ke said suspiciously: "Brother Li, are you wrong?"

Li Qinglin smiled and said, "I will be responsible if I am wrong."

Then Li Qinglin continued to say to the young man: "Brother, it's such a trick. Put down the bucket, it's time for your little brother to come out."

The young man was sweating all of a sudden, and he begged for mercy and said, "Sir, I'm sorry, we are young and ignorant. I hope the gentlemen will give us a high priority and let us have a way out."

Pan Ke was furious and said, "It's really you, take out the hat quickly." As he said that, he began to search for the young man.

Li Qinglin smiled and said, "What are you searching for on him? The hat is in the wooden barrel."

The young man put down the wooden barrel. There was still a person hidden in the barrel. This man looked only thirteen or fourteen years old, and was obviously still a minor child. Just in the child's hand, he was holding a top hat. The top hat was obviously the top hat that he had just worn on Pan Kewei's head.

Ding Goudan opened his eyes. He grabbed the child and smiled and said, "You thieves are really good, but ordinary people really can't imagine it."

In order to take back the hat, Pan Ke grabbed the young man and walked to the police station. At this time, some passers-by saw that the thief had been caught, and many people surrounded him. The young man became even more panicked and begged for mercy to Li Qinglin and Pan Kewei.

Being watched is not a good thing. Li Qinglin hurriedly drank everyone away. They brought the two children to a secluded wall. Li Qinglin began to interrogate the two people.

After interrogation, Li Qinglin learned that these two people were actually actors from a folk acrobatic class.

The strong boy is named Xiong Xuejun, and the thin child is called Wu Hancheng. The two are a pair of partners in the acrobatic class. They learn and perform aerial skills. The work Xiong Xuejun does is called "base" in the acrobatics, and Wu Hancheng's role is called "jianer". The specific division of labor is that Xiong Xuejun supports Wu Hancheng underneath, and Wu Hancheng performs various fancy shapes and thrilling movements on Xiong Xuejun's head and shoulders.

The acrobatic team that led the two to Xi'an is from Hebei. The headmaster of the acrobatic team is Lao Hou, and this acrobatic team is also called Hou Family Class. Hou Family Class was born in Xi'an half a year ago. Hou Family Class was loved by the audience for its superb skills and various unique skills. After coming to Xi'an, he started performing from the beginning of setting up a "bright venue" on an open venue, and until it developed into an acrobatic team that "built cloth sheds" some time ago. They became a famous team with fixed venues and fixed time performances in Xi'an City.

The Hou family class, who made a fortune in a short period of time, aroused the jealousy of his peers. The headmaster of the Li family class, another acrobatic class, had a connection with the black and white of Xi'an. The headmaster of the Li family class colluded with local police and hooligans. The gangsters often went to the cloth shed of the Hou family class to make trouble, but the police basically ignored it. The business of the Hou family class was getting worse day by day.

For these local gangsters, Lao Hou, the headmaster of the Hou family class, was still tolerant at the beginning. When he could not bear it, Lao Hou ordered his subordinates to have a fight with the gangsters. This time the police arrived very quickly, but he arrested the gangsters who came to make trouble unreasonably, but the ones who were eventually arrested were the headmasters and actors of the Hou family class.

The average actors in the Hou family class were only under the command of the head teacher, and these people had no money on them, and they could not get any money in prison. The police asked everyone to pay some deposits and released them. The headmaster, Lao Hou, was different. The police charged him with the crime of "gathering crowds to disrupt social security and deliberately undermining the anti-Japanese war" and bid to pay a ransom of 1,000 oceans before they could be released.

The members of the Hou family quickly sold all kinds of possessions, and the cloth shed was sold at a low price, and in the end they only raised 800 oceans. After the money was handed over to the police station, the police officers in charge of the case insisted that they had to pay the remaining 200 oceans, otherwise the matter of releasing people would be free of discussion.

The headmaster of the Hou family class is still locked in the account, the actors are in charge, and all the things required for life and performance are sold out. Not only are they unable to raise money, but they even have three meals a day become a problem.

After all his thoughts on change, a pair of partners in the team who performed similarly to Xiong Xuejun and others came up with a crooked idea, that is, a strong "base" walking on the street with a wooden barrel on his head, and a small "sharp" hidden in the wooden barrel on his head. If he gets close to something that can be successful, the "base" will send a secret code to the "sharp" in the wooden barrel on his head. "sharp" uses his agility skills he has practiced for years to practice acrobatics to put the hats on passers-by, gold and silver jewelry on women's heads, and samples hanging from high places by merchants.

After success, the "base" did not rush to escape from the scene quickly after success, but slowed down calmly, thus falling behind the thieves. Generally, the thieves saw that the barrel was big and heavy enough, and the "base" was a short dress, and there was no way to see where to hide the stolen goods, so they would never expect that there was another mechanism inside. Those who lost money could not find the thief on the scene, and eventually had to admit that they were unlucky. Therefore, this pair of partners succeeded repeatedly and never failed once.

With successful examples, then naturally some people imitate it. Xiong Xuejun and the other two started to start working in this business because they really had no source of livelihood. Because this method was really clever, they gained a lot. After the stolen goods they stole were taken on the black market, they not only solved their livelihood problems, but also saved some money to pay ransom for the headmaster. However, they met Pan Kewei and Li Qinglin today. Pan Kewei was unwilling to admit that they were unlucky, and this seemingly clever method was finally seen through by Li Qinglin. This was also considered that they had reached the end of their career.

Li Qinglin ordered Ding Goudan to watch the child, and Ding Goudan grabbed him tightly. The child was obviously hurt by Ding Goudan. Tears were everywhere in his eyes, but his lips were closed without saying a word. Li Qinglin saw this helpless child, and his compassion arose. Look at Xiong Xuejun again. Xiong Xuejun is actually a simple and honest behavior, and it seems that he is not a cunning and treacherous professional thief.

Li Qinglin then signaled Ding Goudan to let go, and turned to Pan Kewei and said, "These two children are still young, and it is indeed wrong to do this, but they are forced by life. If they are sent to the police station, they will definitely be locked up in the phone. Maybe those veterans of theft will really lead them to ruin. I am short of soldiers now, so I think it would be better to take them away and join the army. Once they become soldiers, they can be strictly disciplined. This will give them a right path."

Pan Kewei said: "Since you have started to plead, I won't care about them anymore. These two people will be left to you in the future."

However, Pan Kewei did not completely believe Xiong Xuejun's explanation. He told Xiong Xuejun and Wu Hancheng: "Your story is well written, and I hear it as if it is true. You will take me to the police station later. If you tell a lie, don't blame me for being rude." As he said that, Pan Kewei deliberately showed the pistol on his waist to the two of them...
