Chapter 20: Cat's Paw
"Boss, the old three." Li Bai greeted the snack bar owner.
The boss readily agreed, and got busy, the three of them often ate here, so they all knew each other, and the boss knew what they liked to eat.
"Tell me what the hell is going on." As soon as he sat down, Jin Guo hurriedly asked.
Lei Baoquan and Li Bai smiled invariably when they saw him like this, and Lei Baoquan said: "You are too anxious, otherwise, I recommend you to go to the bureau as an assistant policeman." ”
"What do you do?" Jin Guo listened well.
"It's just an amateur policeman, without an official title, and when he usually goes out to the police, he helps the police to do things, and you do whatever they do." Lei Baoquan explained.
"Good! Are you sure? May I? Jin Guo asked happily.
Lei Baoquan nodded and said, "It should be okay, you have good physical fitness, and you have been a soldier, and you have been a great help in investigating the case with us before, so I think it's completely okay!" ”
"Uncle Lei, don't promise indiscriminately, be careful to give Brother Guo hope, if you can't do it again, then it will be ugly." Li Bai reminded him.
"Cut. Who am I? Can I say I can't do it? Don't worry, I will definitely recommend it for you, and it will definitely be a success! Lei Baoquan packed the ticket and said, in fact, he had this idea before, on the one hand, the overall quality of Jin Guo is qualified, although he is not a graduate of a regular police academy, but it should be more than enough to be an assistant policeman; On the other hand, Jin Guo doesn't have any formal job now, and his daily expenses can't be completely supported by odd jobs, so the assistant police can still help him earn a little money; The main thing is that he likes this kind of work and is not timid, which ordinary people can't do.
"Uncle Lei, thank you so much, whether it works out or not, I thank you! Today's meal, count it in! Jin Guo said with a smile.
"You said it earlier! Let's order another steamed bun. Li Bai said teasingly.
"But what kind of case is it this time?" Jin Guo still didn't forget to ask clearly.
Breakfast is served. The three of them chatted over breakfast, Lei Baoquan and Li Bai described the two cases vividly, during which Li Bai accidentally threw out half a flower roll with his dancing hands, which made the people around him look sideways.
"It's weird!" Jin Guo listened. sighed.
"Huh? Why do you feel weird? Li Bai said while eating.
"You see, both of them died in the same way, and they live in the same building, and you said that someone is spying on you, I wonder if the murderer has already targeted you?" Jin Guo suddenly said this.
Lei Baoquan and Li Bai were stunned. They have never thought about it in this regard, but it doesn't mean that what Jin Guo said is impossible.
"Uncle Lei, why didn't we think of it? You said that if the murderer thinks that the two of us are too much of a hindrance, will he secretly put us too" Li Bai didn't dare to continue, but Lei Baoquan understood the meaning.
The latter shook his head and said, "Don't scare yourself, let me tell you, I've been a police officer for so many years, what kind of gangsters haven't I seen?" There are those who want to take revenge, but look at me. Wouldn't it be better to eat here now? ”
"But have you ever seen a murderer using this method before?" Li Bai asked.
Lei Baoquan was speechless.
Jin Guo saw that the atmosphere was a little embarrassed, and hurriedly said: "I just said it casually, it shouldn't be." ”
"No, when you say that, I also think about why I feel uncomfortable every time I go there, as if there are a pair of eyes staring at me, and I think that the murderer may already know that the two of us have been tracking him. And we are different from the police, the police act in unison. It is often easy to be exposed, and the two of us have no plan to act, and we can do whatever we want, so it is not easy to control. Besides, we can find evidence that the police can't find every time, so "Lei Baoquan looked at Li Bai.
Li Bai answered: "So, the murderer may list us as the most difficult opponent!" ”
Lei Baoquan nodded: "That's right!" ”
Jin Guo watched the two of them sing and harmonize, laughed out loud, and said, "If it weren't for me, I would be sitting in front of you." I thought the two of you were filming, how is this the same as the lines, you rehearsed? ”
"Brother Guo, you should always be on high alert at this time, this time is different from the previous times, the first few times it was that kind of thing that was doing trouble, and this time, it is a person, a mad murderer!" Li Bai emphasized.
"Okay, okay, don't get excited, I know, anyway, every time we go out, it's three of us together, he won't take this risk, right?" Jin Guo nodded in agreement.
"Maybe he's not alone?" Lei Baoquan said suddenly.
Li Bai and Jin Guo looked at him, and Li Bai asked, "What?" Do you think they were gangs? ”
Lei Baoquan picked up a bun and said, "Don't forget, where did the wound on the corpse come from?" ”
"Oh, yes! He should also have a murderous pet who doesn't know what it is! It killed both of them. Li Bai remembered.
Jin Guo rolled his eyes and said, "It seems that I will have to take a guy with me to defend myself when I go out in the future." ”
"That's it, the three of us buy nunchucks online and take them with us! It's small and self-defensive! Li Bai suggested.
Lei Baoquan took a bite of the bun, glanced at him and said, "You can buy a missile online while you have a discount, that thing is more lethal." Don't mess with those useless things, just be vigilant at all times, especially when you're out alone at night. ”
The other two nodded, and continued to eat.
Yungang City Police Station, morgue.
"Judging from the wounds of the two deceased, they were the work of the same animal, and you see, here, and these wounds are all of the same shape." A middle-aged man with short hair and a slightly chubby man wearing a test coat pointed to the corpse and said to Sun Duo.
"What kind of animal is Director Zhou?" Sun Duo wondered what had killed them.
The person he called "Director Zhou" was the deputy director of the Yungang City Zoological Research Institute, and he paused for a long time and said: "Actually, I don't want to believe it, but judging from the scratches on the wound, it's a cat." ”
"Cat?!" Sun Duo and Luo Yiyang next to him called out at the same time, although they had suspected that it was a cat before, but it was really confirmed, but it seemed to be unexpected to them.
Director Zhou looked at their surprised expressions and said, "If you had told me before that a cat had scratched people like this, I might not have believed it, but now I see the wound, which is indeed a trace of a cat scratch." ”
"You can't be mistaken, can you? I think it's like a dog, huh? Luo Yiyang was still skeptical.
Director Zhou shook his head with a smile and said: "Ordinary people don't have any special research on animal scratches, so they all look similar, but we are engaged in specific research, and we have also studied and compared the shape of the claws of various animals and the scratches they cause before, so I am very sure that this is the trace of cat scratches."
