Chapter 248 – Happy Life with Chen Sanke (2)

“Big Brother, d-did Big Sisters leave for cla.s.s?”

At half-past two in the afternoon, Chen Sanke dazedly walked out of the bedroom while dragging the husky’s ear with her left and rubbing her eyes with her right hand.

“Mhm.” Chen Yu quickly wiped off the food residue stuck to the corners of his mouth and nodded. “They’re gone.”

Letting out a yawn, Chen Sanke raised her left leg and sat on the husky. She then smacked the husky’s b.u.m and shouted, “Yah!”

“Awooo!”

The husky let out a long howl before dragging Chen Sanke up to Chen Yu.

“Big Brother, what do you think of my mount?”

“…”

Taking a look around, Chen Sanke dazedly said, “We’re the only ones left.”

“Mhm.”

“Do you know how to take care of children?”

“…Yes.”

“Why are you still lying down, then? Why aren’t you playing with me?”

“Scram.” Turning away, Chen Yu pulled out the TV remove and said, “Go play with the dog.

Lowering her head, Chen Sanke looked at the husky underneath her for a moment. She then reached out, grabbed Chen Yu’s hand, and shook it, “Play with me! The dog isn’t as fun as you!”

Smack!

Chen Yu sent a smack to Chen Sanke’s forehead. “Are you itching for a beating? Don’t speak if you can’t do it properly!”

“It hurts!” Chen Sanke held her forehead aggrievedly, her eyes reddening.

“An elder brother is like a father. Now that mom and dad aren’t home, and your elder sisters are out, I’ll teach you what a father’s authority is.” Sitting up, Chen Yu sternly said, “Go play by yourself. If you don’t want to play, then do your homework.”

Unconvinced, Chen Sanke pouted, “T-That’s not how you look after children!”

“This is my way of doing things, so bear with it.”

“I-I’ll treat you to snacks, so will you play with me?”

“Snacks…” Chen Yu subconsciously rubbed his belly. Shaking his head, he said, “No thanks, I’m full.”

“Hmph!” Chen Sanke turned her head away angrily. She then rode away on the husky while saying, “I’ll eat them myself, then.”

Hearing this, Chen Yu laid back on the sofa once more and prophetically covered his ears.

The next moment…

“Wahhhh!!!”

Chen Sanke suddenly burst into tears.

After waiting for the peak of the sound waves to pa.s.s, Chen Yu relaxed his hands. While changing the TV channel, he casually asked, “What’s the matter?”

“M-My snacks disappeared again! Wahhh…”

“Are you sure they’re gone? Look carefully. Did you forget where you hid them? Check if there are any in Second Eldest’s bed.”

With tears rolling down her cheeks, Chen Sanke quickly jumped off her mount, ran up to Chen Erke’s makes.h.i.+ft bed, and flipped the pillow and bedding. Very quickly, she found a biscuit bag underneath Chen Erke’s pillow.

“Wahhh!! It’s her! It’s her! It’s her again!”

“What?”

“Chen Erke! I knew it was her!” Chen Sanke stomped her feet angrily. She then picked up the pillow and hit the sofa. “I’ll beat her to death! I’ll beat her to death!”

“Stop, calm down.” Chen Yu rubbed Chen Sanke’s head and soothed her. “Since you’ve determined that it’s your second sister’s the thief, the most important thing to do now is to quickly count your losses.”

“W-What are losses?”

“I’m talking about how many snacks you lost.”

“Mhm!”

Nodding, Chen Sanke staggered to her several hiding spots. However, the more she searched, the more tears she shed.

“Gone…

“They’re all gone…

“This is gone as well…

“Everything’s gone… Wahh…”

“Everything’s gone? Impossible! How can they all be gone?”

“They’re all gone!” Chen Sanke sat on the ground and wailed even harder.

Seeing this, Chen Yu had the invisible floating camera start taking shots of Chen Sanke, permanently storing this joyful, happy, and positive scene forever.

“There’s no helping it, then. Cry your sorrows away.” Lying back on the sofa, Chen Yu clenched his fist and said, “You mustn’t let your second sister off the hook once she comes home!”

“I want to beat her!”

“Not enough! Louder!”

“I want to beat her!!”

“Good luck! Big Brother will forever support you!”

After saying so, Chen Yu switched to a comfortable posture and resumed watching TV.

“But…”

After crying for several minutes, Chen Sanke stood up and wiped her tears away. She then tilted her head and wondered, “But Second Sis eats less than me. How… How did she finish so many snacks?”

Chen Yu: “…”

The husky lying on the balcony watching the fun: “…”

“…”

“…”

After silence enveloped the living room for a while, Chen Sanke slowly s.h.i.+fted her gaze toward Chen Yu and visually inspected him.

“What are you looking at?” Chen Yu asked.

“Second Sis can’t eat so much!”

“…Makes sense!”

Standing up, Chen Yu put on a solemn expression as he walked up to Chen Sanke. He then inspected his surroundings like a detective before saying, “What you said makes sense. There’s no way Second Eldest can eat so much.”

“Who are the rest, then?” Suspicion began filling Chen Sanke’s eyes as she looked at Chen Yu.

“This isn’t a trivial problem.” Chen Yu stroked his chin, a profound look appearing in his eyes. “Who has a bigger appet.i.te than Second Eldest?”

“Me.”

“Who’s appet.i.te is larger than yours, then?”

“Uu… Big Sis.”

“Who spends the most time in the living room together with Second Eldest, then?”

“Big Sis.” Chen Sanke’s gaze gradually s.h.i.+fted toward the door to Chen Yike’s room.

“Go on.” Squinting his eyes, Chen Yu asked, “Aside from Second Eldest, who else has the most interest toward your snacks?”

“Big Sis!” Chen Sanke’s thoughts gradually cleared up.

“Second Eldest might not be able to eat so many snacks, but what if she had an accomplice? Wouldn’t she be able to finish them, then?”

“Yes!”

“In that case, the person most likely to work together with Second Eldest is…”

“Big Sis!!” Chen Sanke’s face flushed red with anger.

“That’s likely the case!” Pulling out his phone, Chen Yu played Detective Conan’s background music. “Holmes said that once you eliminate the impossible, whatever remains, no matter how improbable, must be the truth! However, we still have to find evidence to be sure.”

After saying so, Chen Yu grabbed Chen Sanke’s hand and walked up to Chen Yike’s bedroom. He then turned the doork.n.o.b and pushed against the door.

However, the door remained unmoving!

“It’s locked!” Sneering, Chen Yu said, “Something must be up!”

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Chen Sanke impatiently brandished her fists against the door.

“Calm down.” Hugging his little sister, Chen Yu said, “A wise detective can find clues even if he doesn’t enter the crime scene. We can look through the crack of the door.”

Hearing this, Chen Sanke hurriedly nodded and laid flat on the floor. She then stretched her chubby hand through the door gap, successfully grabbed onto something, and pulled it out.

The packaging of a w.a.n.g w.a.n.g Senbei Cracker!

Snap!

Snapping his fingers, Chen Yu said, “Sure enough! You discovered the truth.”

“Wahh!!”

Picking up the plastic packaging, Chen Sanke poured the leftover crumbs onto the floor. Immediately, sadness welled up within her heart, and she started crying once more.

“There, there.”

Hugging Chen Sanke tightly, Chen Yu sighed, “This is fate. You should find better hiding places next time.”

“Uu… U… Something’s not right.” Chen Sanke suddenly stopped crying. She then looked up at Chen Yu and asked, “I hid them very well. E-Even if they found some, they shouldn’t be able to find all of them, right?”

Chen Yu: “…”

“How did they find all of them?” Chen Sanke broke free from Chen Yu’s embrace. She then crouched down and frowned. “Even the one inside the vase is gone…”

“Could there be…more than meets the eye to this case?” Chen Yu suddenly said.

“What?”

“Third Eldest.” Folding his arms around his chest, Chen Yu quietly said, “Is there a possibility that, there aren’t just two people committing this crime? Instead…”

In a daze, Chen Sanke repeated, “Instead…”

“There are three criminals!”

“Three!”

“That’s right.” Nodding, Chen Yu said, “This is a carefully plotted conspiracy that hides the real mastermind of this crime!”

Chen Sanke remained confused.

“The mastermind might be present at the crime scene!”

“H-Here?”

“Yes. Let’s dissect this complex plot to see its essence. Since you’ve hidden your snacks well, they shouldn’t be found so easily unless an insider is involved. In that case… Who else knows where you hid your snacks? Or to put it in another way, who has the ability to search for your snacks?”

After saying so, Chen Yu turned his gaze toward the husky lazing on the balcony.

Meanwhile, realization also dawned upon Chen Sanke. She then followed Chen Yu’s gaze toward the husky and slowly clenched her little fists.

The husky: “…”
