Early the next morning, Lu Xiang stood in front of the mirror in the living room, looking at the bruises on his eyes and worried.

"Really, how do I get to work." Lu Xiang muttered in a low voice.

When he was at a loss, Lu Xiang seemed to think of something, touched his head and muttered to himself, "What about the black glasses that the kid bought from Great Britain......

Lu Xiang hurriedly walked into Lu Hehuan's room, took out a pair of sunglasses from the drawer, he took the sunglasses to the mirror and put them on, looked left and right, and happily greeted Lin Zhi who was mopping the floor.

"I'm on duty." Lu Xiang left with his hands behind his back and satisfied.

Lin Zhi glared at Lu Xiang with disgust, and lowered his voice, "Wearing my son's sunglasses is not serious." ”

Early in the morning, Lu Hehuan and Ying Xi came to the police station and met Bao Ying in the corridor.

Bao Ying walked quickly to Lu Hehuan and smiled gently, "He Huan, I just saw your father come in wearing sunglasses, and he is very stylish." ”

Lu Hehuan sighed, and had already guessed in his heart, "It should be the 'style' that was beaten by my mother." ”

Ying Xi and Bao Ying couldn't help snickering when they heard it, and Lu Hehuan couldn't help laughing either.

"By the way, Xiao Ying, was it okay yesterday?" Lu Hehuan suddenly remembered that Zhu Wolong had eaten with Bao Ying last night, and looked concerned.

"It's fine." Bao Ying smiled heartily, leaned into Lu Hehuan's ear, and pretended to lower his voice mysteriously, "I have basically figured out Zhu Wolong's weakness now and know how to deal with him." ”

"What weakness?"

"He has a shadow of the autopsy, and when I mention the autopsy, he can't help but want to vomit, and yesterday at dinner, I told him some anatomy, and he ran away."

Lu Hehuan couldn't help laughing, he couldn't imagine that his "ghost idea" had really become Zhu Wolong's dead end.

"Xiao Ying, I can't see that you are so vicious." Ying Xi saw that Lu Hehuan and Bao Ying were talking and laughing, and couldn't help but interject on the side.

"I'm a good person who says good things, and people who speak ill of me, who are treated." Bao Ying disagreed.

"Xiao Ying, in short, that Zhu Wolong is a lustful person, you should be careful yourself." Lu Hehuan reminded worriedly.

While the three of them were talking and laughing, Bao Kang's dissatisfied voice suddenly came from the end of the corridor.

"Lu Hehuan, who are you asking Xiao Ying to be careful? I think you should be the one who should be careful the most! Bao Kang walked over angrily.

Ying Xi saw Bao Kang and hurriedly nodded in greeting.

"Director Bao."

"Director Bao." Lu Hehuan saw Ying Xi say hello, and hurriedly followed suit.

Bao Kang glared at Lu Hehuan, his tone was not good, "I just received a report from a newly opened Strange Beast Garden, you two go and deal with it." ”

"Report the Strange Beast Garden?" Lu Hehuan was surprised.

"Could it be that the boss was murdered?" Ying Xi speculated.

"It's not a murder, it's a theft, and the elephants that the zoo bought from the United States and shipped in to attract tourists were lost in the elephant park."

Lu Hehuan was stunned for a moment, the elephant is huge, and it takes a lot of work for the thief to steal the elephant, "Could it be that the elephant was transported away by **?" ”

Bao Kang shook his head, "I didn't get **, I lost it in front of everyone." ”

"How do elephants steal?" Ying Xi couldn't help but ask.

Bao Kang saw that the two were still struggling with how to steal the elephant, and scolded sharply, "I know what else do you want you to do?" Don't be stupid here, hurry to the scene of the crime! ”

"Yes!" Lu Hehuan and Ying Xi replied in unison.

The two of them went straight to the Strange Beast Garden.

In the morning, the sun was just right. Lu Hehuan and Ying Xi hurriedly came to the door of the Strange Beast Garden, and the two looked up, and there was a plaque with three big characters written "Strange Beast Garden" on the top of the door, and the plaque was wrapped with red silk to celebrate the opening.

Lu Hehuan and Ying Xi glanced at each other and walked in. As soon as the two entered the courtyard, they found Lin Zhi looking around with a handbag, as if they were looking for something.

Lu Hehuan happily greeted him, "Mother." ”

"He Huan!" Lin Zhi followed the sound and saw Lu Hehuan, she was both surprised and happy, she looked at Ying Xi sideways, and nodded politely, "Inspector Ying." ”

"Mrs. Lu." Ying Xi nodded.

Lu Hehuan didn't expect to meet his mother in the Strange Beast Garden, and remembered the appearance of his mother just now, and looked puzzled, "Mother, what are you looking for?" ”

"Elephant, didn't you say that there are elephants here, my mother has never seen an elephant, I want to see it, but just now in the elephant garden, I saw that it was empty."

"Mother, don't look for it, the elephant is lost."

Lin Zhi covered his mouth in surprise and looked at Lu Hehuan incredulously, "Lost?" ”

"Yes, Mrs. Lu, He Huan and I are in charge of investigating this case." Ying Xi said on the side.

Lin Zhi was a little anxious, and worked hard to come to the Elephant Garden, but he didn't expect to pounce on him, and he would definitely let Lu Xiang see the joke when he went home.

"Then you investigate carefully, and you must find the elephant back, I haven't seen it yet." Lin Zhi asked.

"Got it, mother."

"Son, I won't delay you in solving the case, I'll go home first."

Lu Hehuan nodded, "Okay, mother, be careful on the road." ”

"Got it." Lin Zhi turned to leave.

Lu Hehuan looked at Lin Zhi's back, his eyes were firm, and he signaled to Ying Xi, "Let's go, for the sake of my mother, I have to find the elephant." ”

The owner of the Strange Beast Garden was anxiously pacing back and forth in the empty elephant garden, he was in his forties, burly, wearing a crisp suit and tortoiseshell glasses, and he looked polite. In the early years, he worked as a helper in a church, and he could speak fluent English, and he met a group of foreigners, so he opened a strange animal garden in the old gate, and bought an elephant from the United States at a high price. Unexpectedly, the elephant was lost on the opening day.

Jugglers stood on the side of the improvised stage, and a few men held down magicians named Zheng Qiu and Zhang Chuan. Zheng Qiu and Zhang Chuan were both dressed in black tuxedos, a white shirt underneath, a bowler hat on their heads, and a small scepter in their hands, and their faces were painted with colorful oil paint.

There is a group of tourists watching the excitement outside the elephant garden, and Liu Rushuang and Bai Yulou are also among them.

As soon as Lu Hehuan and Ying Xi came to the Elephant Garden, Liu Rushuang pulled Bai Yulou and rushed over happily.

"Brother Xi!"

"Why are you everywhere?" Ying Xi looked disgusted.

"I took the animals to soothe the mood in vain, didn't Lu Hehuan say that as long as he was in a happy mood, it was possible to regain consciousness by himself?"

Liu Rushuang looked at Bai Yulou, and Bai Yulou stood silently beside Liu Rushuang.

Ying Xi looked at Bai Yulou, who was relatively stable, "It looks much better than yesterday." ”

Ying Xi no longer ignored Liu Rushuang and showed his ID to everyone, "I am Ying Xi, the inspector of the Jiuzha Police Station, this is Detective Lu Hehuan, who reported the case this morning?" ”

Hearing the sound, the owner of the Strange Beast Garden hurriedly walked out of the elephant garden, as if he saw a life-saving straw on the edge of the cliff, and eagerly held Ying Xi's hand.

"Officer, you're here, I'm the boss of the Strange Beast Garden, and that's what I reported."

"When did the elephant get lost?" Lu Hehuan asked.

"I lost it an hour ago."

"How did you find out?"

"Today is the opening of our Strange Beast Garden, and in order to attract tourists, I invited a troupe to perform on stage......

As the owner of the Strange Beast Garden said, early in the morning, a large number of tourists gathered in the open space outside the Strange Beast Garden. The guys set up a simple stage in advance, and several acrobats were performing a shake of bamboo. The onlookers cheered from time to time, and Liu Rushuang and Bai Yulou applauded in the crowd.

The boss of the Strange Beast Garden stood under the stage and watched the performance happily, he thought to himself that the money for inviting the troupe to perform on stage was finally not in vain, and the audience's interest was aroused.

After the performance, the performers bowed to the audience and went off the stage, and then two street magicians walked onto the stage, it was Zheng Qiu and Zhang Chuan.

Zheng Qiu conjured up some bouquets and threw them to the audience, and the audience shouted, "Okay! ”

Zhang Chuan conjured up a few pigeons, and the pigeons fluttered and flew up, and the audience applauded.

Zheng Qiu was a little unconvinced, and conjured up some colored silk. The audience was eye-opening and couldn't help but exclaim, "It's amazing......"

Zhang Chuan competed with Zheng Qiu and conjured up some eggs to give to the audience, "Come on, this is a gift for everyone." ”

The audience got cheap and gave a thumbs up, "It's still this magician ......"

Zheng Qiu looked at Zhang Chuan even more unconvinced, "It's nothing special to be able to change things, it's only the ability to change things!" ”

"Since I have the ability to conjure things, I naturally have the ability to change things." Zhang Chuan looked arrogant.

"Hmph, that also depends on what it is, right?" Zheng Qiu said provocatively.

"You can choose anything, and I will accompany you in everything." Zhang Chuan fought back with confidence.

Zheng Qiu pointed to the elephant, "It, can you do it?" ”

"Then I have to ask the boss if he is reluctant."

"Become an elephant...... Become an elephant ......" The audience heard that they were going to become no elephants, and they coaxed one after another.

The owner of the Strange Beast Garden looked at the two of them with interest, and then pointed to the elephant in the cage, "If you really have the ability, you can turn the elephant into a lost elephant for us to see." ”

The boss of the Strange Beast Garden told Lu Hehuan and Ying Xi what happened, and he pointed to Zheng Qiu and Zhang Chuan on the side, looking annoyed, "I didn't expect that these two people who suffered a thousand knives really turned my elephant into nothing, but they have the ability to change it, but they don't have the ability to change it back!" ”

Ying Xi rubbed his beard and looked at Zheng Qiu and Zhang Chuan on the side, "It seems that these two magicians have major suspicions." ”

"Officer, we've wronged you." Zheng Qiu and Zhang Chuan shouted in unison.

"What wrongs, you must have stolen the elephant, saying, where is the elephant hidden?" Ying Xi is angry.

"Officer, we're just playing tricks, we didn't steal elephants." Zheng Qiu looked innocent.

"yes, officer, we didn't steal the elephant." Zhang Chuan echoed.

"I don't admit it, I saw it with my own eyes, it's you who turned the elephant into nothing!" Liu Rushuang saw Zheng Qiu and Zhang Chuan's denial, and jumped out to help Yingxi.

Ying Xi was impatient and threatened, "Since you have a hard mouth, then follow me back to the police station and torture me!" ”

"Inspector Ying, don't jump to conclusions first......" Lu Hehuan dissuaded him, he turned to look at the boss of the Strange Beast Garden, "Boss, where did the elephant disappear just now?" ”

The owner of the Strange Beast Garden pointed to the elephant garden, "It's in the elephant cage of the elephant garden." ”

Lu Hehuan walked into the elephant garden to observe the elephant cage carefully, and found that the elephant cage was leaning against a corner of the elephant garden, one corner of the cage was protruding, and the two walls formed an "M" shape, and the elephant cage was empty.

Lu Hehuan walked into the elephant cage again to observe, and suddenly found something, he raised his hand and knocked on the gap in the elephant cage, and found that there were mirrors in the void.

"It turned out to be Western magic." Lu Hehuan suddenly realized.

Everyone present was still confused.

Lu Hehuan walked out of the elephant garden and faced everyone, "These two magicians didn't steal the elephant, this is Western magic." Using the 'M' shape of the elephant cage and the wall, the magician erected a contour mirror behind the iron fence of the cage while the curtain was raised, and used the mirrors to reflect the walls on both sides, creating the illusion that the elephant had disappeared, when in fact the elephant was still in the cage, and the elephant could be seen as long as the cage was opened. ”

"Lu Hehuan, your reasoning is too self-righteous, I dare to bet with you, the elephant is definitely not in the cage." Ying Xi retorted disdainfully.

"Bet on what?" Lu Hehuan did not show weakness.

Ying Xi thought about it, and his eyes moved, "Whoever loses will wash the other party's socks for a month." ”

Lu Hehuan thought about letting the sloppy Ying Xi wash his socks, and smiled boldly, "Okay." ”

Lu Hehuan looked at the boss and couldn't wait to urge, "Boss, please open the cage, your elephant is in the elephant cage." ”

The owner of the Strange Beast Garden hurriedly motioned to the guy, "Hurry up and open the cage!" ”

The two men opened the cage, and the cage was empty, and there was no trace of an elephant at all. The boss looked around, and he was overjoyed.

"Lu Hehuan, Lu Hehuan, you are a pig's nose with green onions in your nose this time - pretending to be an elephant." Ying Xi looked proud.

Lu Hehuan was both puzzled and embarrassed, and hurriedly changed the topic, "Since the elephant was transported, this case is even more difficult, Inspector Ying should use the time laughing at me to find other clues." ”

"What clues are you looking for, the elephant was stolen by those two magicians." Ying Xi took out the handcuffs and put them on the two magicians, "Follow me back to the police station, convict you first, and then find the elephant." ”

Zheng Qiu and Zhang Chuan glanced at each other and hurriedly explained.

"Someone approached us and asked us to play two arguing magicians in front of the director of the Strange Beast Garden, and put a curtain on the outside of the elephant cage through the performance." Zheng Qiu cried.

"Yes, officer, the line book was given to us by that person, and we were just confused for a while, thinking that we could not only increase our popularity, but also take fifty yuan before agreeing." Zhang Chuan said.

Ying Xi glanced at the two of them suspiciously, "Hand over the ocean and the script book." ”

Zheng Qiu and Zhang Chuan touched all over their bodies and didn't find them, and they were immediately anxious.

"The ...... who was still there just now," Zheng Qiu muttered in a low voice.

"I just put it in this pocket, why is it gone......" Zhang Chuan's face turned pale.

Ying Xi decided that the two were deliberately teasing him, and scolded him in annoyance, "Nonsense! You are elephant thieves, follow me back to the police station!" ”

Lu Hehuan wanted to stop Ying Xi, but seeing that he was angry, he had to stop talking.

In the interrogation room of the police station, Zheng Qiu and Zhang Chuan sat opposite Lu Hehuan and Ying Xi, and the two of them had bitter faces and did not dare to come out.

"Say, where did you transport the elephants?" Ying Xi asked angrily.

"Wronged, if I steal the elephant, I will not die a good death." Zheng Qiu cried.

"Officer, we must have been taken advantage of." Zhang Chuan looked at Ying Xi pitifully.

"According to you, that man instructed you to act, and then unknowingly stole the elephant and the ocean and the script for you?" Lu Hehuan was secretly suspicious.

"Yes!" Zheng Qiu was adamant.

"That's right!" Zhang Chuan expressed his deep approval.

Ying Xi slammed the table, "You think you can fool Inspector Ben by making up some magical stories?" ”

"We didn't make up a story." Zheng Qiu flatly denied it.

"It's true." Zhang Chuan swore an oath.

"It seems that you won't say anything about punishment without punishment." Ying Xi gritted his teeth.

Zheng Qiu and Zhang Chuan smelled the smell of danger and cried, "Wronged! ”

Lu Hehuan and Ying Xi glanced at each other, and saw that the two of them were crying more than Dou E, and they didn't know where to start.

The case was at an impasse for a while.
