Chapter 37: Someone in the Bathroom

"Anonymous's difficult love," Qiao Ming sighed, "but in this life, how can I feel like a domineering president." ”

Gou Rixin was lying in his nest on all fours, his eyes empty, and his mind was replaying the memories that flowed through the water. It may be that in the prosperous era of the Qing Dynasty, there was no war to fight, and there was no faint monarch who needed support, so his persistence shifted from the hatred of his family and country to the woman. Gou Rixin turned around, thinking that he had a narrow vision in this life, and it was really useless.

"Let's go, let's go together," the bedroom door suddenly opened, and Wen Xin broke in with two girls, "Where's Gou Rixin?"

"What are you doing?" Qiao Ming said in surprise when he saw that people were menacing.

"Rescue stray cats and dogs, let Gou Rixin take us to the cat and dog dealer to see if we can save them." Wen Xin dragged the cat out of the nest, "Do you still recognize the way?"

Gou Rixin nodded confusedly, and then shook his head.

"You are..." Qiao Ming stood up with a worried face, "Do you want to fight or fight?"

"It depends on the situation, let's find it first," said a girl behind her, "but we must not sit idly by, Gou Rixin is a stray cat on campus, and he was also caught by cat and dog dealers, which is a dereliction of duty for our community." ”

"What club?"

"We are members of the animal protection community, my name is Orange. One of the girls replied.

Qiao Ming frowned in confusion, and he didn't know how Wen Xin got in touch, "But you are so excited..." She was always afraid that something would happen.

"Don't worry, we have experience in this kind of thing, I am the vice president of the animal protection society, and I have organized many actions to save stray cats and dogs. Orange said.

"Let's go, let's go together, let's also give some love to the cat and dog world. Wen Xin threw Qiao Ming's clothes over, "You still have to show us the way." ”

Gou Rixin got into his schoolbag, was taken out the door by Qiao Ming, and went downstairs to the dormitory, where he found a few students waiting. Qiao Ming scratched his head depressedly, how did it feel like going to a group fight, "Are so many people going?"

"Don't be afraid, how bold people are. Juzi said, and then began to introduce the members of the community who participated in the operation, "Primary 1, Primary 2, Primary 4, Primary 5, and Primary 6." ”

Qiao Ming and Wen Xin looked confused when they heard this, is it so casual?

Juzi smiled embarrassedly, "It's easier to remember the pseudonym, but it's also to protect yourself." ”

"That's okay, let's also make a temporary one, little seven and little eight. Wen Xin pointed to himself and Qiao Ming, and answered, "It's Xiao Hei in the schoolbag." ”

A few people laughed and knew each other.

Take No. 42 directly to Gutan Park Station, eight people got off the bus and looked around. Xiao Liuzi took out his mobile phone and took a few photos, while Xiao Wu recorded video and audio all the way, and did an in-depth interview with Qiao Ming. The members of the entire club are organized and recorded, which makes Qiao Ming a little admired.

"Alright, stay vigilant from now on, what's our slogan!" Orange asked, standing in the middle of the crowd.

"Protect life, safety first!" everyone shouted in unison.

Juzi turned around and instructed Qiao Ming and Wen Xin, "In case of an emergency, you two must stay calm, remember to protect yourself, don't act without permission, and leave everything to us, you know?"

Qiao Ming and Wen Xin nodded hurriedly, their hearts surging when they listened. Thrill, excitement, excitement!

Gou Rixin became a leading dog for the first time, walking on the street left and right to identify the breath of cats and dogs. The eight of them walked nearly two miles before they finally heard the barking of dogs. Gou Rixin raised his head and looked at the bungalow.

"Probably this is it, let's do it. Orange spoke.

I saw Xiao Yi take out a small drone from his schoolbag, and an AD, and after some trumpeting, sent the drone into the air.

Damn! Qiao Ming and Wen Xin glanced at each other, their faces full of admiration. I thought it was just an ignorant teenager whose love was overflowing, confronting cat and dog dealers with his bare hands, but I didn't expect that there would be organization, records and high technology.

The AD screen shows the situation in the vicinity captured by the drone, and beyond a fence, you can see a series of low-rise bungalows, each with a small courtyard, typical of the old town.

"Three o'clock, a little closer. Xiao Er, who was in charge of the observation, said, "The target is locked, there are two courtyards next to each other, and the yards are full of cages. ”

Xiaoyi lowered the drone, and the picture on the screen was clearly visible. The two bungalows are separated by a wall, and the yards are full of iron cages, and whether there are stray cats and dogs in them, you can see if you can see them in the past.

"Okay, ten minutes to pack up and confirm the equipment. Orange took out a few red armbands from his schoolbag and gave them to several people to wear.

"What do you mean?" Qiao Ming took a look, and it was written on it, "B City Animal Protection Association." ”

"Bluffing, meeting the timid, maybe compromised. ”

Orange and Xiaoliu each lead a team and go to the locked two houses to knock on the door.

Qiao Ming and Wen Xin were persuaded to stay, guarding the intersection five meters away, reporting the surrounding situation at any time, and accompanied by a professional. It is said that in this kind of unfamiliar place, it is very easy to form an illegal industrial chain protection circle, so you should be extra careful.

"Did it really happen?" Wen Xin asked hesitantly.

Xiao Si snorted, "You know that there is a dog meat festival in Yulin, right?"

Qiao Ming and Wen Xin hurriedly nodded.

"We don't have the right to interfere with legitimate businesses, but some villagers will mix stray dogs with dogs and even steal pet dogs. Last year, we contacted the animal protection club of the local school and launched a cross-provincial operation to save stray cats and dogs. ”

"And then?"

"It's dead, the dog collar is piled up in a pile of fur. The man broke down and cried, and without saying a word, he started to fight with the villagers, and as a result, everyone from the village rushed to help. ”

Qiao Ming and Wen Xin slammed their hearts up and looked at Xiao Si.

"At that time, a few of us were scared to pee, and we persuaded and called the police, the man was beaten on the head and bled out, but fortunately no one died, and I heard that he is still lying in the hospital. Later, the president set a rule that non-professionals should not be involved, and every action must be reported, and the action plan must be approved by half of the community before it can be implemented. ”

"Awesome," Wen Xin gave a thumbs up and nodded again and again, "It's time to catch up with the police and bandit war, can you take me with me in the future?"

"Okay, do you have any specialty?"

"I have long legs!" Wen Xin stretched out her legs heroically, completely forgetting that the little four on the opposite side had a meter seven, she snorted and retracted her legs embarrassedly, "I study medicine, I can be a veterinarian..."

The mobile phone rang suddenly, and the orange reported the progress of the operation, "One cage is filled with chickens, and the other can't knock on the door, we are going to climb over the wall to check the situation of the animals in the yard." A few of you go to the main gate and stand guard. ”

"Roger!"

"Isn't that illegal?"

"Don't worry," Xiao Si picked up his schoolbag and patted Wen Xin's shoulder, "We have someone in the bureau." ”

The two nodded knowingly, biting their lipes and not daring to speak.

The outer wall of the bungalow is an overgrown path, trampled out by people, and in winter, there is no one for a long time. When the three of them and one cat arrived, they saw that a soft ladder had been built on the wall.

"Damn!" Qiao Ming looked at a few people incredulously, unable to speak except for two words.

"Little Four and Little One go to the front door," Orange commanded, "Little two, Little Five cover Little Six, Little Seven Little Eight?"

"Yes!" Wen Xin and Qiao Ming said in unison.

"I was guarding five meters away and saw passers-by calling. ”

β€œyes sir!”

Across the wall, cats and dogs bark incessantly, but they all sound weak. Gou Rixin squatted on Qiao Ming's shoulder and jumped on the wall.

Xiao Liuli climbed the soft ladder, crossed the wall, and saw the iron cages all over the courtyard. There were only a few cats and dogs trapped inside, and they looked relatively thin, and they barked vigilantly when they saw someone coming. Xiao Liu squatted on the wall, took out his mobile phone and took a few photos, while reporting the situation in the yard to the people outside.

"Three medium-sized dogs, two little orange cats, none of them seem to be in very good condition..."

Gou Rixin meowed and jumped into the yard. In addition to the stench emanating from cats and dogs, he also vaguely smelled a different smell.

It smells of blood.

Maybe some cat or dog was injured, and he sniffed around the yard with a nose, but finally came to the door that led to the room. The iron-clad door exuded a cold air, Gou Rixin stretched out his paws and picked at it, and the harsh sound made the little six hairs squatting on the wall stand on end.

"Blackie, come back!"

"Meow-" Gou Rixin wrinkled his cat face and jumped onto the windowsill. The window panes were dirty and blurry, and he struggled to make out everything in the room.

What catches the eye is the living room sofa, on which are stacked with clothes and school bags, in front of the sofa is a coffee table, and there are many books on it. There was a desk next to the TV, on which were also stacked with miscellaneous items. Beyond the living room, two doors can be seen, one ajar leading to the bedroom and the other closed, what appears to be a bathroom.

Gou Rixin narrowed his eyes, his paws slammed into the glass, and there was a stabbing sound. The faint smell of blood in the air made him feel uneasy.

"Food and water were given, but it was too cold at night for fear that I would freeze to death. The cages were locked, and I couldn't open them. Xiao Liu said into the mobile phone, he had jumped into the yard with the iron cage, but when he saw the cats and dogs trapped in the cage, he was a little disappointed for a while.

All their efforts can only temporarily prevent these cats and dogs from being tortured, and the skill of unlocking is really powerless.

"Let's get out of the way," Orange commanded, "and we'll come back in the afternoon." ”

Xiao Liu sighed and was about to climb out of the cage, but Gou Rixin behind him bit his trousers.

"Blackie?"

Gou Rixin is actually not sure at all, and his memory does not store such information, so what kind of blood is emitting from the air smelling of blood, cat blood, dog blood, pig blood, or human blood?

But for life, he didn't dare to bet.

"Xiao Hei, let go," Xiao Liu touched the black cat's head, "What's wrong with you?"

He dragged Xiaoliu to the door, raised his paw and patted it. Xiao Liu looked in through the glass, but didn't find anything unusual.

"Didn't you find anything?"

Gou Rixin meowed, slammed the door again, and motioned for him to open the door.

"The door is locked from the inside. Xiaoliu pulled the door.

Breaking into this kind of thing, the sentence is quite serious. Xiao Liu ignored Gou Rixin's anxious eyes, grabbed the fur on Gou Rixin's neck and left.

Damn, Gou Rixin screamed, broke free from the other party and jumped out of the wall to find Qiao Ming.

Five meters away from the courtyard, Qiao Ming was probing his brain and doing a sentry like a thief. Gou Rixin rushed over and explained breathlessly.

"Can you go into the house and see, I smell blood, what if it's a person?"

"What do you mean?" Qiao Ming said in surprise.

"There was a little girl in the house, she was mute, and I saw that her bag and clothes were there, but I didn't see anyone, and besides, the smell of blood in the room was very strong. ”

"But..." Qiao Ming frowned, "It can't be such a coincidence, right?"

"Just go in and see, just in case. Gou Rixin bit Qiao Ming's trousers and pulled back, "Go, don't rub it." ”

"Hey," Qiao Ming was helplessly pulled by one leg, "In case it's pork and mutton bought by someone, it's normal for the New Year's house to have a little taste, not to mention that it's illegal to break into a private house." ”

"It doesn't matter that much. ”

Qiao Ming left the post without permission and came to the path outside the courtyard wall, several people looked at her suspiciously, and Xiao Liuzi squatted on the wall and was about to climb down. Gou Rixin meowed, climbed the wall and jumped into the yard again.

"Little Black!" Xiao Liuzi shouted, "What should I do?"

"That..." Qiao Ming stammered, "Can you go in again and take a look, what's going on inside? Look at what the cat is doing, is there something wrong with this person's house?" ”

Xiao Liuzi looked at the orange, waited for her to nod, and then returned to the courtyard. Seeing that Gou Rixin was still lying in the glass and looking, he leaned over suspiciously, but still didn't find anything unusual.

"Meow-" Gou Rixin shouted.

"Can you open the door?" Qiao Ming stood outside the wall as an interpreter.

"It's locked from the inside. Xiao Liuzi replied.

"Where's the window?"

"It's all small pieces of glass that are dead. ”

"Yes..."

"Meow-" Gou Rixin's voice suddenly sharpened, stretching out his paws and desperately picking at the glass window.

"Looks like it's leaking?"

"Damn!" Qiao Ming, who was standing outside the wall, was stunned, stepped on the soft ladder on the wall, and climbed up in an instant.

"Qiao Ming!" Orange shouted, but before everyone could react, Qiao Ming was already standing on the wall, stepping on the iron cage and rushing into the courtyard.

"Nonsense!"

Wen Xin and the others ran over when they heard the news, looking at Orange's gloomy face, and they didn't dare to make a sound.

"Next time, you will never be allowed to take non-community members to act!" Orange glared at Wen Xin and looked at the few people around him, "Tell Xiao Liuzi to let him bring both people and cats out for me, and today's action will be canceled." ”

Xiao Liuzi looked at the people who rushed in dumbfounded, and almost knelt down, I don't know where the heroine is from?

Qiao Ming, who jumped into the yard, ran to the glass window and looked in anxiously. I saw a mess in the room, and under the door that Gou Rixin said, I saw a dark liquid flowing out. Her heart jerked, and without saying a word, she began to pull the door.

"What are you doing?" Xiao Liuzi hurriedly grabbed Qiao Ming's arm.

"If it's a person, open the door. Qiao Ming yelled, but the door was indeed locked from the inside, and she kicked and kicked in a hurry, but to no avail.

There was a sudden clatter in the courtyard, and everyone standing outside the wall was stunned.

"What's wrong?" said Orange coldly.

"She... Smashed the window. Xiao Liuzi was dumbfounded.

Gou Rixin jumped in from the smashed window, rushed to the bathroom door and sniffed carefully, and finally determined, "It's a person inside." ”

"Damn!" Qiao Ming raised his hand with the iron rod and smashed it, "Gou Rixin, you find the key to open the door." ”

Xiao Liuzi, who was standing on the side, was dumbfounded, frozen in place and at a loss.

The loud movement made several dogs in the yard bark in panic, and also alarmed the neighbor who kept chickens next door. An old man over fifty years old opened the door and saw two young men standing in front of the door next door, and shouted in a warning voice, "What are you doing?"

"Orange, the neighbors are suspicious of us. "Xiao Si and Xiao Yi who were guarding the door reported in time.

"I took off the armband and said we were going to buy a dog. Let the neighbor call the owner of the house and ask him to come back as soon as possible," Orange roared with a calm face, "you guys hurry up and pack your things." Sixth, can you come out!"

"What are you doing in a daze, smashing it, waiting to save the dead!" Qiao Ming yelled at Xiao Liuzi who was frozen in place with an anxious face.

The glass was smashed, but because the window frames were all small lattices, people couldn't get in for a while, so Qiao Ming picked up a thick iron rod and smashed it with all his strength. The iron rod slammed back, and her arm was numb for a while.

When the neighbor next door heard the movement, he moved a high stool and climbed the wall uneasily, and when he saw the people in the yard, he immediately scolded, "Damn, little rabbit cub, what are you doing, dare to come into the house and steal it! Don't run, I'll tell you, wait for Lao Tzu to call the police and arrest you into the bureau!"

Xiao Liuzi couldn't manage so much anymore, and seeing that Qiao Ming didn't care about smashing and robbing, he had to decide to take a gamble. He picked up the stick on the ground and smashed the window with Qiao Ming. The two of them smashed and kicked each other, and finally smashed an old window lattice, making a small space.

Qiao Ming threw the iron rod, took off the down jacket and threw it to Xiao Liuzi, and crawled towards the house without hesitation. The shattered glass shards on the windowsill hurt her hands and knees like knives, and Qiao Ming bared her teeth and endured the pain, and finally rolled into the house.

"Be careful. Xiao Liuzi worried.

"Here, open the door!" Gou Rixin cut out the blood marks on the bathroom door.

The bathroom door opened, and Qiao Ming covered his mouth violently with a scream. Despite the preconceived presupposition in her heart, the scene in front of her still stunned her.

In the cramped bathroom, a little girl in a school uniform was lying on the toilet, both wrists were cut and bloody, one arm was still dripping blood when she was in the toilet, and the other hand was hanging on the ground, also bleeding.

"Meow-" Gou Rixin reflected, and rushed over to pull the girl's clothes.

Qiao Ming's hands and feet were weak, and he took the towel in the bathroom in a panic and hurriedly tied it to the girl's wrist. The little six children in the courtyard couldn't see the panorama of the bathroom clearly, but they also saw blood and water all over the ground and a school uniform.

"Damn!" he cursed and hurriedly shouted, "Someone is hurt, hurry, go to the front door." ”
