Well, yes to me......
…… Body......
About half an hour after Meng Qingqi and Le Jiuxi left the zoo, the park that was originally full of people had become deserted. Although for most people, they did not see the lion hurting people, but out of psychological fear, they still chose to leave immediately, because for humans, the greatest horror actually comes from the imagination in the heart, not the fact that they have seen it with their own eyes.
But in stark contrast to the depressed environment of the park, the area around the lion carcass has become the most populous place in the park, except that these people are the police responsible for sealing off the scene of the "crime". Among the many uniformed policemen, there are three people who are particularly conspicuous in civilian clothes, they are a middle-aged man and a young man, but the strangest thing is the last person, who is actually a child of about ten years old, with a lollipop in his mouth, and an innocent and cute appearance.
"Did you see who did it?" The middle-aged man squatted on the ground and carefully examined the charred body of the lion before standing up and asking the young man behind him.
"At that time, the situation was too chaotic, and we rushed over immediately after sensing the appearance of supernatural energy and spirit beast aura on the other side, but in the end we were still a step too late. When we arrived here, the only one left at the scene was the child who only knew how to cry, and he couldn't ask anything. The young man shrugged his shoulders and replied helplessly. His appearance was very ordinary, except for a pair of eyes that flashed from time to time to show that he was different.
"A fire-wielding adept? But this level of flames, it shouldn't be that he is the only one who ......" The middle-aged man's gaze turned back to the lion's charred corpse, his thick two eyebrows furrowed, and muttered to himself.
"What did you say, Vice-Captain?" The young man was stunned, because with his understanding of the middle-aged man, he knew very well that the middle-aged man would only show such an expression when he encountered an intractable problem.
"What do you think about this lion suddenly running out and hurting someone?" The middle-aged man did not answer the young man's question, but asked rhetorically.
"According to eyewitnesses, the lion went berserk when the keeper entered the cage to feed it food, and escaped from the cage after biting the keeper, I guess there is nothing wrong with that, right?" The young man wisely didn't ask any further, and replied honestly.
"Xiaodong, what do you think?" The middle-aged man smiled noncommittally at the young man's answer, and then asked the kid who didn't seem to care about the conversation between the two at all, just looking around.
"We didn't feel it at the time, but there was actually another faint residual ability on the lion's carcass that could easily be overlooked if we weren't paying attention. So I think in addition to the one who uses the flames, there is actually another one who is the one who is responsible, and this person is supposed to be the culprit who made the lion suddenly go crazy. Xiaodong glanced at the shocking corpse of the lion indifferently, and said methodically.
Isn't the nature of the matter completely changed? I thought it was a strange person who suddenly woke up after being in danger! If these two bastards really dare to use their power in a place with so many people in the zoo, then we can't let them go easily. The young man was indignant, not doubting Xiaodong's words at all, as if it was a matter of course.
"We can't say for sure if the two are related, but I suspect that both are Anomalies who aren't on our file. Now we don't have a clue, and if they want to hide, there is no way we can find them, so we can simply write a report on this matter and let our permanent people in the city pay attention, and we will continue our mission! The middle-aged man shook his head.
"That's it? It's too cheap for them, right? The young man was not convinced.
"No one died in this incident, only two people were seriously injured and more than a dozen people were slightly injured, which is already a good result. Our mission here is to investigate why the Thunder Fire Beast suddenly appeared, this matter should not be under our jurisdiction in the first place, but it happened that you found out, so I came. The middle-aged man said indifferently.
"But since the Thunder Fire Beast suddenly appeared and disappeared two weeks ago, it hasn't appeared at all, let's not talk about finding it, we can't even find a single hair. Vice captain, you don't know, we have been doing nothing and panicking for a while, otherwise I wouldn't have brought Xiaodong here to play...... Ouch! ”
The young man said with a bitter face, but before he finished speaking, he snorted bitterly, and the whole person jumped. It turned out that after hearing his words, Xiaodong immediately kicked him hard, obviously dissatisfied with his complaining attitude towards taking himself out to play.
"It's good for you to say these words here, otherwise let the captain hear it, and you will know what it feels like to regret, the captain is the most hated person who is not serious about his work and only knows how to complain." The middle-aged man laughed, but the target was the words of the young man.
"I didn't say what I just said, so don't tell the captain." The young man was shocked, and he felt frightened at the thought of his captain's cold face.
"Hey, hey! Do you know how to be scared now? I see that you will dare to talk nonsense in the future, but if I don't say it, it doesn't mean that no one else will say it. The middle-aged man squinted his eyes and looked at Xiao Dong, who looked angry, and said.
"Xiaodong, you can help me keep it a secret! Don't you think I'll take you to the zoo as soon as you open your mouth this time? The young man immediately changed his flattering face and pleaded with Xiaodong.
"Weren't you still complaining just now? Don't think I don't know, none of you want to take me out, it's just that you were unlucky and lost the lottery in the end. Xiaodong sneered.
The young man was speechless, because what Xiaodong said was indeed the truth, their team had been in G City for so long, it was rare to have a day off, who didn't want to have a good time, and who would want to take a child around to get in the way.
"For a month from today, I will treat you to ice cream every day." When the plea was unsuccessful, the young man immediately changed his strategy and turned to inducement.
"No, whatever I want to eat in a month, you have to give me anything." Xiao Dong rolled his eyes and said slyly, if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would never believe that a child of this age would show such an expression.
"Deal!" The young man 'gritted his teeth' and said, whoever told him to have a handle to be caught, he could only accept his fate.
"It's what you want, but don't say I'm bī to you." Xiaodong was still "angry" that the youth was not enough, so he once again showed an innocent look and said with a smile.
"Clear, I volunteered." The young man said word by word, as if he was squeezing out of his teeth, and added one more sentence in his heart, "You cheap and well-behaved dead ghost, see how I teach you a lesson if I have the opportunity in the future." It's just that he only made Xiaodong even more happy, and he laughed "giggled", and almost didn't applaud.
"Alright, let's go!" Seeing that the two living treasures, one big and one small, still wanted to fight again, the middle-aged man spoke. However, although the two immediately shut up when they heard his words, they still stared at each other with wide eyes, which made the middle-aged man angry and funny.
