Buy a Daddy to Baby My Mommy Chapter 281 The Trap Map Appears Suddenly

“What's up?” Zhen Chao turns around and walks over quickly. Fu Zhengzheng follows him.

In the bathroom, Yan Weixiao is half squatting, watching something with Fu Xing and pointing to something sometimes.

“Xingxing, what's up?” Zhen Chao asks first.

Fu Xing turns around, sees Zhen Chao and waves at once, “Uncle, come to look. Aunt Yan and I find a treasure map.”

“Treasure map?” Zhen Chao can't help laughing.

Hearing the word “map”, Fu Zhengzheng shivers. You know, those guys always want to make trouble for Qiao Keren because of a map!

“Really!”

Fu Xing turns around slowly, passes a sort of paper to Zhen Chao carefully and says seriously, “Be careful. Don't break it.”

Zhen Chao takes it over with seeming seriousness. Fu Zhengzheng cranes her neck to observe it immediately.

It's a piece of kraft paper of a palm size. A rectangular frame is drawn in an askew way on the paper. Circles and dots are scattered in the frame.

Zhen Chao looks at the kraft paper and asks smilingly, “Xingxing, what is the treasure in the 'treasure map'?”

Fu Xing looks at him with his head aslant for quite a while, shakes his head and then points to Yan Weixiao, “Aunt Yan says treasure maps in TV plays are all like this.”

Seeing Zhen Chao glance at her, Yan Weixiao lowers her head right away and speaks haltingly, “I'm kidding.”

Zhen Chao curls his mouth corners slightly and is about to put aside the kraft paper when Fu Zhengzheng shouts, “Brother, don't move!”

“What's wrong?” Zhen Chao is confused.

“Let me see it again.”

Fu Zhengzheng takes over the kraft paper carefully. The bathroom is a little crowded, so she rushes to the sitting room, spares one hand to push things aside on the tea table, spreads the kraft paper on the table and begins to study it.

Zhen Chao notices his sister's strange expression, comes out, squats down to look at the kraft paper and then touches it.

“The patterns on the paper may be drawn with a mark pen.”

“A mark pen?” Fu Zhengzheng looks up and asks.

Zhen Chao nods, “Writing of mark pens is tolerant of light, water, scraping, corrosion and high temperature. Mark pens are generally used to mark something, complement colors, dot and so on. Usually…”

Before her brother finishes, Fu Zhengzheng turns around and shouts to the bathroom urgently, “Fu Xing, Yan, come out quickly!”

Yan Weixiao holds Fu Xing's hand and walks out fast. When she sees Fu Zhengzheng staring at her, she is startled and says in panic, “Miss Fu, I'll wash the bear for Xingxing right now.”

Fu Zhengzheng points to the kraft paper on the table and asks directly, “Where is the paper from?”

Fu Xing answers first, “It was taken out from my bear's hip.”

Hearing that, Zhen Chao enters the bathroom quickly.

“From the bear's hip?” Fu Zhengzheng casts her eyes on Yan Weixiao.

Yan Weixiao nods at once, “The hip of Xingxing's bear was stained with cream by me. I planned to wash it for him. I thought there were batteries at the back, so I unzipped and dug inside. Unexpectedly, I got this paper instead of batteries. I thought someone drew it for fun, so I playfully told Xingxing it was a treasure map on purpose.”

“It was directly put in the hip of Fu Xing's bear?”

“No, it was wrapped with a piece of gauze kerchief.”

“Is it this one?”

Yan Weixiao turns around and sees Zhen Chao holding a small piece of gauze kerchief. She nods, “Yes, it is. The kraft paper was completely wrapped with the gauze kerchief behind the bear.”

Fu Zhengzheng takes over the gauze kerchief and looks at it. It looks familiar, but she can't recall where she saw it, so she pats her forehead heavily in anxiety.

Seeing his sister anxious and excited, Zhen Chao asks confusedly, “What's wrong with the paper?”

Fu Zhengzheng is about to speak. When she sees Yan Weixiao still standing aside, she wads it up deliberately, throws it on the table and responds lightly, “I am not going to talk about the paper with you. I want to ask you something else.”

Then she says, “Miss Yan, please continue to wash the bear for Fu Xing.”

“OK.” Yan Weixiao goes into the bathroom in haste.

“Aunt Yan, wait for me.” Fu Xing enters too.

After they enter the bathroom, Fu Zhengzheng picks up the kraft paper ball quickly, spreads it flat and tells Zhen Chao quietly, “Brother, what do you think after seeing the patterns on it?”

Zhen Chao stares at the kraft paper for quite a while and then says slowly, “It looks like a random picture painted by a kid with nothing special. What's your opinion?”

“Do you think it might be a map?”

“A map?” Zhen Chao looks it carefully again and then shakes his head, “No routes and road signs. There is only a frame as well as some circles and dots. It doesn't look like a map.”

“I don't think so, either.” Fu Zhengzheng looks thoughtful too.

Zhen Chao pauses and then adds, “Xingxing says it's a treasure map. What if the treasure is hidden in the room?”

Fu Zhengzheng cheers up, “Then the circles and dots are…”

“Traps?” Zhen Chao says and then smiles, “So many traps. I feel like reading a martial arts fiction.”

Fu Zhengzheng looks up at Zhen Chao, making various guesses quickly in her mind.

Suppose a key is needed to open the coffer and a map is also necessary to enter it. But the man behind Li Xiaomeng only has the key now and hasn't got the map, so he is looking everywhere for those that once had close relationship with Li Xiaomeng before she died, hoping to find the map. Then he found Qiao Keren?

The map is actually the trap map named by her brother?

Fu Zhengzheng feels every nerve is shaking and her guess isn't impossible.

Fu Xing's bear was once taken away by Li Xiaomeng. Afterwards, it was picked up by someone around the lawn company and handed to the police. Did Li Xiaomeng expect she would die at that time, so she squeezed the trap map, which was drawn on the kraft paper and took by her, into Fu Xing's bear and left it at the scene deliberately?

It's not right. Now that she knew she would die, why didn't she hide the key in it too?

Perhaps the bear was left by her carelessly?

Fu Zhengzheng's brain is in a mess.

Finding his sister keeps staring at him, Zhen Chao smiles, “I'm kidding. I saw different kinds of traps when fighting against criminals. But I have never seen so many traps in a single room. I might think too much.”

“Honey, Chao, call Yan and Xingxing to have dinner.” Zhen Mingzhi shouts in the dining room.

“Coming.”

Fu Zhengzheng responds, folds the kraft paper and the small piece of gauze kerchief, puts them into the pocket carefully and then calls them for dinner.

During the dinner, she is absent-minded, so of course she is in no mood to talk with her father. Though glared by her father for several times, she pretends not to see.

After dinner, Zhen Chao is going to leave. Finding her brother doesn't wear a coat, Fu Zhengzheng runs upstairs to take a coat for him and sees him off.

Zhen Mingzhi points to Yan Weixiao and says to Zhen Chao, “It's so late. It's not safe for Yan to go home alone. Drive her home.”

Hearing that, Yan Weixiao waves at once, “No, thank you. I can go back alone.”

Zhen Mingzhi disapproves immediately, “You are a girl. How can we be relieved? There are many bad guys in the evening.”

Fu Zhengzheng doesn't want to meddle originally, but her father keeps winking at her. She has no choice but to echo his words, “Brother, Yan comes specially to return your mobile phone. If something happens to her on the way back, we have to bear the responsibility.”

Zhen Chao doesn't say anything. He opens the door of the back seat, signaling Yan Weixiao to get into the car.

Yan Weixiao looks at Zhen Chao and flushes instantly. Then she lowers her head and gets into the car.

After closing the door, Zhen Chao waves at his family smilingly, gets into the car, starts it and drives off.

After they leave, Zhen Mingzhi holds Fu Zhengzheng happily and laughs, “Honey, did you see Yan's eyes when she looked at your brother?”

Fu Zhengzheng replies in sulk, “Shy but eager? So only as a girl thinks of love and has eyes, she will look at my brother with this kind of eyes.”

Ignoring his daughter's sarcasm, Zhen Mingzhi says complacently, “Doesn't it prove the first step of our plan has been successful?”

“It's your plan, not mine.” Fu Zhengzheng corrects him at once and continues to put a damper on him, “But your first step doesn't make a difference. My brother doesn't take a fancy to Yan.”

“Nonsense. Now Yan has feelings for your brother. It's easy for a girl to chase a man. So long as I often encourage her and create opportunities for her, success is just around the corner.”

“All right. You can just expect your success. I'm tired and will go to rest.”

“How can you get tired at 7:00? Honey, are you sick?” Zhen Mingzhi holds out his hand to touch Fu Zhengzheng's forehead.

“No. I didn't have a good sleep last night. I'll go to catch on my sleep.”

“Why didn't you have a good sleep last night?”

Fu Zhengzheng is in no mood to talk farther and farther with her father nor to watch Fu Xing practice calligraphy. She runs upstairs.

After coming to the room, she spreads the kraft paper and gauze kerchief again and looks carefully.

The gauze kerchief is made of quality and real silk. She probably saw it before, but she isn't sure if she saw it worn by Li Xiaomeng.

Since Li Xiaomeng died, she has washed Fu Xing's bear for two or three times. But she knows there are no batteries behind the bear, so she never thought of unzipping when she washed it. If the map is really the one to open the coffer, it's accidental for Yan Weixiao to find it.

“What are you looking at?”

Fu Zhengzheng raises her head and finds Han Siqi is back. She calls him over immediately and shows him the gauze kerchief.

“Siqi, have you ever seen the gauze kerchief?”

“Gauze kerchief?” Han Siqi stares at it for quite a while with suspicious eyes.

“Did you see Li Xiaomeng wear it?”

Han Siqi grabs the gauze kerchief and intends to throw it to the trash basket, “Throw the thing used by a dead person.”

Fu Zhengzheng is excited, holds him and asks anxiously, “Are you sure that you saw Li Xiaomeng wear it?”

Han Siqi feels Fu Zhengzheng strange, “What's wrong with you?”

Then Fu Zhengzheng tells him that a piece of kraft paper wrapped with this gauze kerchief was found in Fu Xing's bear.

“Really?” Han Siqi goes to the table quickly and looks at the kraft paper too, “You suspect the kraft paper is the map that those guys are looking for?”

“Yes! The gauze kerchief is Li Xiaomeng's. She took Fu Xing's bear before she died. Some people asked Qiao Keren for the map Li Xiaomeng gave her before she died. Combining all of them, don't you think my deduction is reasonable?” Fu Zhengzheng is more and more excited.

“It seems reasonable indeed.”

Fu Zhengzheng can't hold back her excitement. She takes out her phone quickly to make a call, “I have to call Yang Tao.”

When she is about to dial Yang Tao's number, Yang Tao calls her first.
