Chapter 31: God Seeks the Image

At dusk, the setting sun shines through the windows of the police station's dormitory. Ying Xi's peanuts were scattered all over the ground, and Ah Hua was excitedly pecking peanuts to eat.

Lu Hehuan and Ying Xi returned to the dormitory dejectedly, and the two pushed the door in and caught Ah Hua who had stolen the food.

Ying Xi saw that his beloved peanut was ruined like this, and chased Ah Hua angrily.

"You gluttonous chicken, Inspector Ben dares to eat peanuts secretly, I'll let you eat them, let you eat them!"

Ah Hua fluttered her wings and scurried around, Ying Xi took off one of her shoes and chased Ah Hua. Ah Hua jumped onto the chair, jumped up on the chair, and flew past Lu Hehuan's head.

In order to chase Ah Hua, Ying Xi pounced directly on Lu Hehuan, the two fell to the ground, and Ah Hua took the opportunity to seize the door and escape.

"Stop! Jen! Inspector Ben orders you to stop! Ying Xi yelled.

Lu Hehuan pushed Ying Xi away, remembering that he had secretly eaten a few peanuts from Ying Xi, he couldn't help but feel palpitations, and persuaded him with good words, "Inspector Ying, don't be like a chicken." ”

"yes, I don't have time to fight the chickens, I have to supervise you to wash my socks."

Lu Hehuan looked depressed, thinking that he was really talkative.

In the dormitory of the police station, Ying Xi watched Lu Hehuan squatting on the ground and washing his socks while eating peanuts.

Lu Hehuan, who had a cleanliness attack, held his breath, and it was unbearable halfway through the wash, he tilted his head towards Ying Xi, "My God! Inspector Ying, I'm willing to gamble and lose, but can I replace it with something else? I'm really not up to the job of washing socks. ”

"No, a gentleman is hard to chase after a horse, and besides, don't exaggerate too much, okay? It made me wash my socks as if life was worse than death. ”

“Su

e! It's better to live than to die. Lu Hehuan looked at Ying Xi pitifully.

Ying Xi was annoyed and scolded, "You're enough!" ”

"Why don't you give me a good time?" Lu Hehuan closed his eyes and put on a posture of looking at death as if he were at home.

Ying Xi glared at Lu Hehuan, rubbing his beard and thinking, if Lu Hehuan was really forced to death, no one would saddle him before and after. Thinking of this, Ying Xi waved his hand impatiently, "Okay, okay, unless you let Ah Hua never steal my snacks and peanuts in the future, I promise not to use you to wash your socks." ”

"I'll do it!" Lu Hehuan's eyes lit up and he was overjoyed.

At dusk, the courtyard of the police station is very quiet. Ah Hua took a cheerful walk in the yard after a full meal, Lu Hehuan sneaked into the yard quietly and gradually approached Ah Hua. He saw the opportunity and pounced on Ah Hua, Ah Hua seemed to realize something, flapped his wings and ran wildly, and Lu He Huan staggered behind to chase.

Finally, Lu Hehuan hugged Ah Hua, and Ah Hua's hair was fluttered all over the sky.

"Ah Hua, I warn you, if you dare to steal peanuts from Inspector Ying, I will pluck out your hair and let you run naked." Lu Hehuan taught earnestly.

Under the setting sun, a huge shadow enveloped Lu Hehuan and Ah Hua, and then Bao Kang's angry voice came.

"If you dare to let Ah Hua run naked, I will let you run naked!"

Lu Hehuan turned his head tremblingly. Against the backdrop of the setting sun, Bao Kang's face was distorted with anger, and he was terrified.

Lu Hehuan swallowed his saliva subconsciously, and explained in a trembling voice, "Director Bao, Ah Hua often steals peanuts from Inspector Ying, I just taught it to be like a girl and be reserved." ”

Bao Kang glared at Lu Hehuan angrily, and took back Ah Hua and held it in his arms, "My Ah Hua, you are frightened, don't be afraid." ”

"Director Bao, if it's okay, I'll go first." Lu Hehuan turned around and was about to leave.

"Stop! Lu Hehuan, you dare to move my Ah Hua, I see that you are impatient! ”

Lu Hehuan saw that Bao Kang didn't intend to let him go, so he hurriedly explained, "I'm sorry, Director Bao, I bet to lose to Inspector Ying and have to wash Inspector Ying's socks, but I really can't stand Inspector Ying's socks, so I begged him to change another punishment, he said that as long as I can make Ah Hua not steal its peanuts in the future, he won't let me continue to wash socks." ”

"I see, why didn't you say it earlier." Bao Kang's expression was relaxed, and he seemed to have other plans.

"Director Bao, I'm a little bit clean, can you understand me?" Lu Hehuan's face was full of sincerity.

Bao Kang sneered, "Of course I understand, so in order to cure your cleanliness, I will punish you for washing your socks for the people in the police station!" ”

"Huh?" Lu He Huan was dumbfounded.

It was already dark, Lu Hehuan was crying with a sad face, his nose was clamped with a clip, and he walked into the dormitory with a basin of socks.

"What? Can't get it? Ying Xi sat in his chair with a gloating face.

"I can't handle Ah Hua's master, it's really a disaster, I was caught by Director Bao when I was giving Ah Hua a moral education class, and Director Bao punished me for washing socks for the whole police station." Lu Hehuan looked loveless.

Ying Xi laughed and pointed at Lu He Huan, "You finally have a good chance to cure your cleanliness!" Congratulations. ”

Lu Hehuan didn't think he should be happy, he put the sock basin on the ground by himself, and put his hand into the sock basin painfully.

"It's worthy of Director Bao's right-hand man, you guys really broke your heart to cure my cleanliness habits......

Ying Xi snickered, he put down the peanuts, and immediately put on a righteous posture and walked to Lu Hehuan and squatted down to help Lu Hehuan wash his socks together.

"You, what are you doing?" Lu Hehuan thought that Ying Xi was going to play tricks again, and his eyes were full of vigilance.

"Help you wash together, we are happy detectives, we share blessings, share difficulties, and solve cases!"

Lu Hehuan let down his guard, took his arm and crutches Ying Xi, "It turns out that Inspector Ying is a knife-mouthed tofu heart." ”

"Don't you want to slap me on the back, I don't eat this." Ying Xi put on a serious face.

Lu Hehuan smiled, "You know me, I won't make sycophants." ”

Ying Xi still had a straight face, but there was a clear smile in the corner of his eye.

At three o'clock in the morning, in the dormitory of the police station, Lu Hehuan and Ying Xi were still hugging each other and falling asleep. Liu Rushuang pushed the door in with a bang, and was shocked when she saw the sleeping position of the two people.

"You, you, you two hugging each other and sleeping together?" Liu Rushuang didn't expect to "catch" the two in bed again.

Ying Xi and Lu Hehuan were woken up and awkwardly pushed each other away.

Lu Hehuan scratched his head, "Miss Liu, I'm sorry, I may have dreamed of Ling Yan again last night." ”

Liu Rushuang was confused, and scolded angrily, "What did you dream of Brother Ling Yan Guan Xi?" I warn you, if you dare to hold Brother Xi again, beware that I will chop off your hands and feet, and become an adult! ”

Lu Hehuan subconsciously swallowed his saliva, nodded, and hurriedly took his coat and put it on.

Ying Xi stroked her hair irritably, "Liu Rushuang, why did you come in without knocking?" If you do this again, I will lock the door when I go to bed. ”

"Brother Xi, why are you two big men sleeping and locking the door?" Liu Rushuang sprinkled coquettishly.

"Don't talk nonsense, what are you looking for me to do early in the morning like a plague god?" Ying Xi is impatient.

Liu Rushuang pursed her lips, "I want to take Bai Bai with you to solve the case." ”

"No way!" Ying Xi flatly refused.

Liu Rushuang didn't give up, and begged while taking clothes for Ying Xi, "Baibai is much more stable now, and he won't make trouble anymore, I want to continue to help him feel happy, but the two of us have nowhere to go, Brother Xi, you can take us with you." ”

"I'm going to investigate the case, how can I be happy? If you can't find the clues, it will be very uncomfortable, and it is not conducive to the recovery of Bai Yulou, you still take him to watch the play, listen to the music, or take him to Paramount for a walk, it is the most lively place I have ever been to. ”

"I have a clue! Isn't it happy to have clues to solve the case? Liu Rushuang was in a hurry.

"What clues?" Lu Hehuan asked eagerly.

"Brother Xi promised to take me and Baibai, I'll say."

"You say it first, otherwise don't talk about it." Ying Xi urged.

"When the elephant was lost, I heard that a truck passed by the back door of the Strange Animal Garden, and I suspected that the elephant might have been taken away by truck." Liu Rushuang put on a look like a god.

Lu Hehuan nodded in agreement, "This is an important clue, if the elephant was transported by truck, then there must be a secret door in the elephant park leading to the outside of the Strange Beast Garden." ”

Liu Rushuang hugged her arm proudly, "Brother Xi, wait downstairs in vain, let's go together." ”

"Who promised to take you?" Ying Xi played a scoundrel.

"Didn't you just say ......"

"I said, if you don't say it, you don't have to talk about it, and you can discuss whether to bring you or not."

Liu Rushuang smiled, "Then I'll discuss it with you now." ”

Ying Xi had a cold face, "It's over, no!" ”

Ying Xi didn't wait for Liu Rushuang to speak, pulled Lu He Huan and ran out.

Liu Rushuang was so angry that she stomped her feet, "Brother Xi......"

In broad daylight, the Strange Beast Garden was deserted. Lu Hehuan, Ying Xi and the owner of the Strange Beast Garden came to the Elephant Garden.

Lu Hehuan rushed into the elephant cage to check, and soon found that there was indeed a secret door in the corner of the garden, and the lock of the secret door had been opened and thrown on the ground.

The boss leaned over and caught a glimpse of the picked lock, as surprised as if he had swallowed a fly.

"The door is always locked, and only I have the key." The boss rummaged through his body and found that the key was missing, and he couldn't help but curse angrily, "Those two magicians must have stolen my key." ”

Lu Hehuan raised his hand and pushed, the door opened, and he looked at the boss, "Where is the door?" ”

"It's a street."

"That's right......" Lu Hehuan thought for a while, he looked at the boss again, "Do you know how tall that elephant is?" What is the body width? ”

"The elephant was not yet an adult, it was about six feet tall and about four feet wide, and when it came from the United States, it was said to weigh 5,000 pounds."

Lu Hehuan took out a tape measure and measured the height and width of the secret door, "It's just the width of the secret door, it seems that the elephant was transported from here." ”

Lu Hehuan walked out of the secret door, and Ying Xi followed.

The sunlight shone through the dense leaves on the stone slabs of the street, and Lu Hehuan and Ying Xi came to the street outside the back door of the Strange Beast Garden to carefully investigate.

Ying Xi looked at the street, knocked a few more times with a baton, and looked at Lu Hehuan, "This street is paved with stone slabs, if it is a truck with elephants, it should be very heavy, the stone slabs are so thin, if you can't withstand it, there will be cracks or even breaks, and the stone slabs of this entire street are intact, I think it should be possible to rule out the possibility of trucks transporting elephants." ”

Lu Hehuan was a little puzzled, looked carefully at the ground, and suddenly found that there were traces of intermittent dripping liquid on the stone slab.

Lu Hehuan dipped a little liquid trace, took it to his nose and sniffed it.

"It's kerosene."

Ying Xi pouted disapprehantly, "There's no fuss, the kerosene in the old gate has always been transported by truck, and a few drops of kerosene on the stone road are not a clue." ”

"I think these drops of kerosene are suspicious." Lu Hehuan frowned slightly.

"Don't be suspicious, elephants can't have been taken away by trucks, just look at the smooth stone road."

Lu Hehuan shook his head, his gaze was firm, "Elephants are huge, if they are not transported by truck, there is no other way of transportation that can transport elephants without them knowing." ”

Lu Hehuan squatted down to observe the kerosene spot, gradually tightened his brows, he looked at Ying Xi sideways, "Inspector Ying, we should continue to track down ......"

The river ripples and glows golden in the bright sun. Liu Rushuang pouted, tied a rope to Bai Yulou's hand, and led Bai Yulou to walk by the river, she complained to Bai Yulou as she walked.

"In vain, why do you say Brother Xi is so cold to me? Doesn't he like the innocent and cute type? ”

Bai Yulou didn't seem to hear Liu Rushuang's words at all, and looked at Liu Rushuang's back with dull eyes.

Liu Rushuang thought for a moment and began to talk to herself, "Brother Xi likes the dancing girls of Paramount very much, does he like the glamorous and wild type?" Why don't I change it? ”

Liu Rushuang began to fall into conjecture.

The light was clouded, and in the ambiguous room, Ying Xi was half-leaning on the head of the bed in her pajamas. Liu Rushuang was dressed in a sexy red cheongsam, with bewitching makeup on her face, and twisted her waist to approach Ying Xi.

Ying Xi's eyes were confused, and he seemed to be smiling but not smiling. Liu Rushuang walked to Ying Xi's side, raised her hand to stroke Ying Xi's hair, and then bared her teeth like a little wild cat and barked her teeth and screamed, "Meow-"

Ying Xi smiled evilly and threw Liu Rushuang down on the bed.

The cold breeze blew on her face, Liu Rushuang was relieved, she remembered Fang Cai's fantasy, a flush instantly rose on her face, and she rubbed her hands shyly, "What am I thinking about?" ”

Liu Rushuang held the rope and continued to walk forward, suddenly feeling that something was wrong, she looked back and saw that Bai Yulou had broken free from the rope and was about to commit suicide by throwing herself into the river.

Bai Yulou stood by the river with a calm face, "I can finally atone for my sins......"

Liu Rushuang was startled, and immediately rushed over to grab Bai Yulou, who had just jumped, Bai Yulou's center of gravity was unstable, and he lay directly on the ground.

"Nothing, what are you going to do!"

Bai Yulou wept bitterly, struggling to crawl into the river, "Let me go, let me die, I am deeply guilty, I can always dream of Sister Hao, Cheng Zesheng, and those widows who were killed by me when I sleep at night recently......"

"In vain, calm down...... Listen to me......"

"I don't listen, I'm going to die......" Bai Yulou turned a deaf ear and begged for death.

Liu Rushuang tried her best to pull Bai Yulou, and Bai Yulou began to use her hands and feet together, struggling to climb into the river. Although Liu Rushuang has a savage personality and bullies Bai Yulou a lot on weekdays, in terms of strength, she is still no match for Bai Yulou with her petite stature.

When Bai Yulou was about to break free, Liu Rushuang glanced at the stone on the side, and her heart was crossed, so she directly picked up the stone and smashed it at Bai Yulou.

Bai Yulou was in pain, and looked at Liu Rushuang with an aggrieved face, "Sister Shuang, you beat me?" ”

Bai Yulou fainted as he spoke.

Liu Rushuang blinked weakly, pushed Bai Yulou, and when she saw that Bai Yulou didn't react, she couldn't help but scratch her head worriedly. She really couldn't pull away or carry Bai Yulou, but she couldn't let her loyal little follower lie in the wilderness.

When she was at a loss, Liu Rushuang suddenly caught a glimpse of the big tree beside her......

The sun shone directly into the Strange Beast Garden Elephant Park, and Lu Hehuan and Ying Xi returned to the scene of the crime to continue the investigation.

Ying Xi knocked on the walls of the Elephant Garden as if he was hunting for treasure, and Lu Hehuan asked the owner of the Strange Beast Garden on the side.

"Where did you invite Zheng Qiu and Zhang Chuan?"

"They follow the acrobatic class, and an acrobatic show is interspersed with a few small magic tricks to liven up the atmosphere."

"Do you know how long they've been following the acrobatics class?"

"I heard the class master say that it's been two years, in fact, I watched juggling in other places before, and I also watched the two of them perform magic tricks, and they are a little famous in the old gate."

"Have the two of them ever performed Western magic before?"

"No, their class has nothing to do with foreigners, let alone stayed in the ocean, how can there be any Western magic, usually just change some flowers, birds, fish and insects to tease the people."

After Ying Xi's "treasure hunt" was completed, he came over and urged Lu Hehuan, "Lu Hehuan, it's almost enough, go back and work hard to interrogate the two magicians, and the truth will be revealed." ”

Lu Hehuan didn't care about it, and continued to ask the owner of the Strange Beast Garden.

"That day, Zheng Qiu and Zhang Chuan were fighting until they turned into elephants, were there any suspicious people?"

The boss thought for a moment and shook his head.

"Think about it again." Lu Hehuan asked lest he miss important details.

The boss lowered his head and fell into thought.

On the opening day of the Strange Beast Garden, Zhang Chuan and Zheng Qiu fought on the stage, and the two did not give in to each other. As soon as Zheng Qiu heard that Zhang Chuan could turn things into nothing, he pointed to the elephant and asked Zhang Chuan, "It, can you do it?" ”

Zhang Chuan was not stunned, and turned to look at the boss of the Strange Beast Garden in the audience, "Then I have to ask the boss if he is reluctant." ”

"Become an elephant...... Become an elephant ......" The audience coaxed.

One of the tourists standing next to the owner of the Strange Beast Garden also coaxed, and the boss glanced at the man, and saw that he was in his thirties, wearing a deer-hunting hat, and the lowered brim of the hat covered most of his face, revealing a white skin, as if he had never been exposed to the sun.

"If they can really turn the elephant into nothing, this strange beast garden will be completely famous, and it is not good that outsiders will come here to take a look at the elephant that was once lost." The man muttered to himself, seemingly unintentionally.

"How can an elephant be so big? I think it's bragging! Another tourist retorted.

The man smiled disapprovingly, "Then wait and see what they do, the two magicians were tricked by elephants in the Strange Beast Garden, and the Strange Beast Garden became even more famous, and in the end, it was the boss here who took advantage." ”

When the owner of the Strange Beast Garden heard this, he glanced at the man with interest, but only saw a side face.

"Become an elephant...... Become an elephant ......" The audience was still heckling.

The owner of the Strange Beast Garden thought for a moment, and then looked at Zheng Qiu and Zhang Chuan with interest.

Thinking of this, the owner of the Strange Beast Garden sighed and was annoyed, "Originally, I was still hesitant, after all, the elephant is the treasure of the town garden, and I am also afraid that something will go wrong." It was by listening to that man that I made those two magicians turn into elephants. To be honest, I really didn't expect them to be able to turn elephants into nothing, I just wanted to make them ugly and make the Strange Beast Garden famous. The boss said and couldn't help but fall into the memory.

Zheng Qiu and Zhang Chuan, with the permission of their boss, began to do magic. When the two of them pulled off the curtain, the audience looked at the elephant garden in surprise and found that the elephant was gone.

The owner of the Strange Beast Garden was shocked, he kept staring intently at the curtain, but the elephant was gone right under his nose.

The owner of the Strange Beast Garden inadvertently turned his head and found that the man who was standing next to him had disappeared, he was anxious and didn't take it to heart at the time, but now that he thinks about it, it doesn't seem right.

Lu Hehuan learned the ins and outs of the matter, and secretly suspected that the tourists who prompted the boss to agree to Zheng Qiu and Zhang Chuan's magic tricks were very suspicious.

"Do you know when that person disappeared?"

The boss shook his head, "I don't know, I didn't pay attention to the people around me at that time." ”

Lu Hehuan frowned slightly, "Do you remember what that person looked like?" ”

"I only glanced at his side face, and I didn't pay much attention to it, now I only vaguely remember such a person, and I can't remember anything else."

"This person may be Zheng Qiu and Zhang Chuan's accomplices, as long as you go back and interrogate the two of them, the truth will be revealed." Ying Xi on the side saw Lu Hehuan chatting with the boss and couldn't help but interject.

"Yes, yes, it must be their accomplices!" The boss who was looking for the elephant echoed, and then pleaded with Lu Hehuan and Ying Xi with a crying voice, "Two police officers, you must help me find the elephant, and it cost me more than 2,000 yuan to buy the elephant plus the freight!" ”

Ying Xi's mouth opened wide in surprise, and the bright ocean flashed in his eyes, which was enough to buy many peanuts and good wine. Just rush this, he is going to solve the case too.

Lu Hehuan didn't speak, and lowered his head thoughtfully.
