The autopsy report takes time, and although Chang Wei has already told all the characteristics carried by the corpse, Chang Wei is not a professional coroner after all, so he can't produce a professional report.

The trio rushed back to the police station, and Jules, in his capacity as the sheriff of Lakeside Town, sent a fax to the Earthquake Bureau, asking them to send divers as soon as possible.

In fact, Chang Wei and Jules both considered immediately exploring the water situation in Lake Victoria. The main content of the tourism festival is focused on the water, so the lakeside town has invited professional water lifeguards, and there are quite a few people.

They can do it.

But as soon as it gets dark, the night is undoubtedly inconvenient.

Second, the water lifeguards are not government staff, and if they hear that there is danger, they have a high chance of refusing.

When such a thing is carried out, it is undoubtedly necessary to inform the specific situation. You can't trick people into the lake, and it's hard to explain if something happens.

Of course, the safest way is undoubtedly to cancel or postpone the opening of the festival. But it's already been explained. Lakeside has put enough effort into the festival that no one can cancel or postpone it without definite evidence.

Neither the residents of Lakeside Town nor the constant stream of tourists will be willing.

At night, Chang Wei and Linda stayed in a hotel, which was a room booked by the Lakeside Town Police Department. As for dinner, it was still at Jules' house.

Linda also knew about it, and like Jules, she found it difficult to decide.

The two left Jules's house after dinner, and on the way to the hotel, Linda said, "If there are really dangerous creatures in the lake, will Jules cancel the festival?" ”

Chang Wei asked rhetorically: "What if it's you?" ”

Linda hesitated.

"Jules will." Chang Wei said.

"Why?" She said.

"Don't underestimate the power of a dead husband to pull the mother of three children with his own hands." Chang Wei said: "She is stronger than you think. ”

Then he added: "But there is more than one solution to everything. Linda, you know, first of all, we can be sure that old Glenn was eaten by some kind of creature, but there are creatures that eat people, there are passive and active creatures. Its universality is uncertain. What if it was because of Glenn Sr.'s own reasons that he angered some creature? Or is this creature cannibalism, not universal, but just a single example? ”

"If that's the case, the festival can be held smoothly."

"Yes." Chang Wei said: "But if not. If this animal is active cannibalism, and Glenn Sr. will not be the last, will be the first example of universality, then there are two solutions. First, the cancellation of the tourist festival, which is difficult. Second, before the tourism festival is held, cut off the possibility of things happening at the root. ”

"Just find this animal, hunt and kill?" Linda said.

"Yes."

"Time is running out." Linda said.

"yes." Chang Wei nodded: "Tomorrow is the tourism festival, and the official opening time is ten o'clock in the morning." That is, before ten o'clock, if the problem cannot be solved, Jules will be in big trouble. ”

...

Early the next morning, as soon as the sky was numb, Chang Wei got up to wash up, and when he went out, Linda had just come out.

"Early."

After saying hello, the two went downstairs. It's still quiet on the street, it's early enough. Even the breakfast shop hasn't opened yet.

The two were jogging along the connecting road, and not far away, a police car drove up.

"Chang, Linda!"

It's Jules.

"The Earthquake Bureau said their people wouldn't arrive until eight o'clock at the earliest." Jules looked a little impatient: "I want to go to the lake with you first." ”

"Now?" Chang Wei said.

"Yes."

"You're in a hurry." Chang Wei said: "Jules, we didn't know that the center of the tremor occurred at that point. Lake Victoria is so big, aimlessly patrolling the surface of the lake will not do anything. You should go home first, have a good breakfast, arrange your children, and then deal with this matter. ”

After hearing this, Jules finally calmed down, and she laughed at herself: "I'm still too worried. Chang, you are only eighteen years old, and you are so steady, it is really embarrassing. ”

"When facing anything, calmness is the first element." Chang Wei smiled: "Actually, I'm not as good as you say." It's just that Lakeside Town isn't my jurisdiction, so I don't have a backache when I stand and talk. ”

Jules laughed at what he said: "Well, you do not have a backache when you stand and talk. ”

Linda also laughed: "This guy often surprises. Duke said he was fit to be a police officer. He wasn't quite willing yet. ”

Chang Wei spread his hands: "It's just a job. ”

Jules laughed and said, "Well, after you say that, I'm not in such a hurry. If something really goes wrong, I can't do anything about it, I can only do my best. You haven't had breakfast yet, get in the car, I'll make it for you. ”

I went to Jules's house for breakfast, and it was already seven o'clock.

The atmosphere in the town has begun to heat up. Even in Jules's house, the noises were getting louder and louder.

Jules told Jack to take good care of his two younger siblings, and then he went to the police station with Chang Wei and Linda.

Jules called the Seismological Bureau again and was slightly relieved to hear that the divers had already departed.

"Before the divers arrive, our main task is to maintain order at the main venue of the festival." Jules began to assign tasks: "Linda, the northern section patrol will be handed over to you, no problem, right?" ”

Linda gestured OK and said there was no problem at all.

"So often, Linda said that you are the best at dealing with law and order issues, and the area near the main venue will be handed over to you, how about it? Of course, you have to be ready to help me solve the hidden dangers in the lake. ”

Chang Wei smiled: "No problem. ”

Then he assigned tasks to Booker and other police officers one by one, and Jules did it in an orderly manner.

After assigning the task, Chang Wei drove the temporarily allocated police car and went directly to the main venue.

The main venue of the festival is the largest pier in Lakeside Town. The flag has already been waved here.

More and more tourists are coming here, and young girls dressed in cool clothes are in groups, wantonly exuding the air of youth, and the men's eyes are completely inadequate.

Many residents of Lakeside Town set up stalls outside the venue, selling all kinds of food, swimming rings, swimsuits, balloons, water guns, cold drinks, fruits, etc., and the business is good.

Intense, rhythmic music suddenly sounded from the water stage outside the pier. It was a star band invited by Lakeside.

When the music played, the excitement was suddenly raised tenfold.

The cheers were loud and loud, as if the festival had entered a hot phase – in fact, it had not yet begun.
