Chapter 3: The Rain Arrives
Night.
The summer nights in Luochuan City are always so boring that people can't wait to turn the air conditioner to a negative temperature.
As a middle-aged man who has been a little blessed, so is Chen Shan, who is afraid of the heat.
Helplessly, his wife at home is used to being thrifty, and she doesn't let him enjoy the beauty brought by science and technology too much, so she sent him to the bathroom in three or two clicks, saying that she wants to be an example for her daughter who has just graduated and come home to live.
Lao Chen, who was strict with his wife, had to reluctantly turn off the air conditioner and stepped into the bathroom aggrieved.
But just when he collapsed in the bathtub and felt the slightest coolness in his heart, he imagined a bright future for his daughter to graduate from college and even get married and have children.
A hurried bell rang in his ears.
He hurriedly got up and grabbed the mobile phone on the side, but he was slightly dazed.
"This, this is ...... An emergency call from the Psionic Affairs Bureau?
But Luochuan City has been very calm recently, well, it's probably Xia Xin's kid, who really reported the incident during the day. ”
Thinking of this, Chen Shan's heart, which was still a little nervous, suddenly relaxed.
Xia Xin, this kid is good everywhere, has excellent grades, has a very positive outlook, and has a strong family background, but he is too honest and not clever enough.
Such an honest person, to be honest, is not suitable for staying in the police station.
Thinking like this, Chen Shan had already connected the phone.
"Hey, is it Deputy Director Chen, I'm Tang Shu."
"Yo, Director Tang, hello hello. Calling so late, is there anything wrong? ”
When he heard that the caller was Tang Shu, the director of the Psionic Affairs Bureau, Chen Shan was slightly surprised, but he quickly laughed comfortably.
At this time, he took the initiative to call himself in person, and Tang Shu probably had some personal requests that he needed help from the deputy director, right?
You must know that although he is only a deputy director at the municipal level, Tang Shu is the director of the Psionic Affairs Bureau, a subordinate department of the United Nations.
But if you really want to talk about it, it is obvious that he Chen Shan has more say in this Luochuan City.
After all, he is a deputy director with real power, and Tang Shu, the director, has no authority at all except for dealing with psionic energy-related matters.
Although he Tang Shu is a powerful person who has awakened spiritual energy in ten thousand, he is also an ordinary person who needs to pursue convenience in life, isn't he?
However, Tang Shu's slightly anxious answer came from the other side.
"Director Chen, the situation is urgent, so I'll make a long story short. Due to special circumstances, our bureau needs the full support of the police department, so I hope that you, the acting commissioner, will open up the authority to me so that I can mobilize manpower. ”
"This ...... It's not okay Director Tang, although our police department is obliged to assist the Psionic Affairs Bureau in the investigation, but this is directly open to the authority, will it ......?"
"Skynet, Skynet is broken."
“......? What the! ”
Rumble!
There was a thunderclap in the sky for no apparent reason.
Three or five seconds later, the sky flashed with blue and white thunder.
Then, the thunder began to rise and fall, and the thunder and lightning were intertwined, as if it was angry at the ancient city of Dongxia.
It's like God is furious, trying to stop something that shouldn't have been born.
"It's going to rain."
Lu Jiu muttered.
At this time, he was holding the forelimbs of the whine with both hands, trying to stuff the whiner into the basin to wash it well.
After all, no one knows how long Woo has been wandering or how long he hasn't bathed.
But since she is going to be a part of the Lu family from now on, a wash is naturally inevitable.
Otherwise, who would dare to let her go to bed with a dirty body?
"Meow!"
Whimper waved his two forelimbs vigorously at Lu Jiu, loudly protesting against Lu Jiu's excessive behavior of restricting the freedom of the cat's body.
However, cat's claws can't be twisted on the thighs.
So in the blink of an eye, her body was completely immersed in the bathtub by Lu Jiu.
"Meow!"
The moment it came into contact with the water, the whimper became unusually violent, and the four meow paws continued to struggle in the water, causing layers of splashes.
Lu Jiu, who was splashed by the water, had to free his hand first, ready to wipe the water off his face first.
But at the moment when he pulled out his right hand to get the towel, the long-standing whimper turned around and successfully escaped from his control.
God knows how a palm-sized kitten could have so much strength.
"Hey, hey, be careful!"
Seeing that the whine had jumped out of the water, Lu Jiu couldn't care about the water stains on his face anymore, and hurriedly got up and pounced towards the whine, wanting to catch the whine that jumped out of the basin.
......
In the frightened gaze of a man and a cat, the two heads, one large and one small, continued to expand and enlarge in each other's pupils......
It wasn't until a crisp bang sounded that Lu Jiu, who fell to the ground from the air, reacted, and it seemed that something wet had stuck to his mouth.
Before he could react more, in the next second, a pale red hot flame burst out from Lu Jiu's body.
"Whew, I'm on fire!"
This was Lu Jiu's first thought.
The next moment, frightened, he hurriedly got up and rushed to the washstand, not even ignoring the fact that the basin contained the bath water that he had just used for bathing, and picked up the basin and splashed it hard at himself.
It's also a shame that this is summer in Luochuan City, even if it's only early summer, there is still a minimum temperature of 22 °C, so that Lu Jiu doesn't have to worry about whether he will catch a cold because of this.
But when he regained his sight with his face dry, and was surprised why his clothes were not burned, whether he was hallucinating again, he was horrified to find that the whimper was gone.
"Hey, whoa, whoa, where have you been?
Whew.
Whew? ”
Lu Jiu called tentatively, but received no response.
It was just at this moment that a cool breeze blew, and he realized that he had forgotten to close the window, and he probably slipped out of the window.
Feeling the chill coming from his body, Lu Jiu, who was still wet on his body, couldn't help but shiver.
Hawkers, let's go change your clothes first, since you don't want to stay here, then forget it.
With that in mind, he turned and went to the bedroom.
And at this moment,
Rumble!
Wow!
With an unprecedented earth-shattering thunder,
A rainstorm,
I met Luochuan City unexpectedly.
Lu Jiu suddenly stopped.
For a long time, he shook his head with a self-deprecating smile and whispered to himself.
"Well, since you have already eaten my Lu Jiu's things, it will be my Lu Jiu's cat after all.
Although this may sound like a secondary two, in that case, you really can't let yourself go out in the rain.
It's really a second-class and bad character, Lu Jiu. ”
The next moment, with the roaring thunder, Lu Jiu stepped on the torrential rain and rushed out of the door.
