60. The Tip of the Iceberg
The hornet's nest is nearly half a meter in diameter, which is very huge.
It is really a bit mysterious to find such a large honeycomb here, after all, it takes time for hornets to make a nest, and if it is a place where people often move, it is unlikely to make such a large nest for them.
The place where the honeycomb is located looks like a small carpenter's warehouse, with the floor littered with wood waste and rusty saw blades in the corners. Half of the wall has been torn down, and the whole thing is open there.
This is the place where deep on top of the corner, there is now a huge hornet's nest.
"I bet this isn't my first time here! There must not have been such a thing here. ”
The second dog swore that if there was always such a big hive in this place, he would never fail to find out! And there are four people in the team, not counting Hao Dong, everyone is the elite in this industry, there is no reason why they can't find such a big thing!
The big bag of lychees in the second dog's backpack has been taken out and is being thrown on the ground to attract bee swarms. It didn't take much time for the top to climb with a dense layer, which made people's hearts numb when they looked at it.
Qi Jue remained silent, and Hao Dong didn't know what to say. The queen looked at it for a while, and the equipment they carried with them was not enough to cope with the situation, and it was not convenient to go in to check whether the hive had been put in artificially.
"Even if they are artificially placed, they will have enough money." Ergou took a lot of photos - this is evidence that they have a job - and concluded after the shooting.
The queen pondered: "Hornet poisoning does have the potential to cause coma or even death, and those people don't think that we can believe such an excuse, right?" Or are they telling us how to wrap it up? ”
Hao Dong had a sense of absurdity, he felt as if the other party meant this.
Just like that case, maybe the other party has never been able to find it, so he stayed here and didn't leave, and then found it and left. But from another angle, it is also possible that they are just waiting for him to arrive, and then see him find out, and then leave.
Although he didn't understand why he was arranged, he just felt that it was a possibility.
The kind of uneasiness he felt before, now after he thought of the Ru family, became more and more obvious, and there was more and more a hint of some purpose. He could feel it, it was as if there was a hand in the shadows, slowly pushing him in a certain direction.
That direction, that answer, may not be what he is willing to face. But now he had to go in that order.
The queen thought about it for a while, and also came to a conclusion: "In any case, now that the enemy is dark and I am clear, since they have made arrangements, let's proceed along this line of thought, and see what they are planning." ”
Qi absolutely has no opinion on the queen's arrangement; Ergou couldn't think of a better way at this time, so he could only second; But Hao Dong finally couldn't help but say what was in his heart: "I also think I can do this and see what they want to do." ”
This is the first time that Hao Dong has expressed his own thinking conclusions in the team's discussion, and Ergou immediately shouted: "The first time for a little mouse!" Be sure to record it! Come on, look at the camera of your brother's phone, and repeat what you just said! ”
The queen slapped him on the back of the head: "Don't make a fuss, since there is a decision, let's leave first, and then contact the fire brigade to deal with it." ”
Although leaving a large bag of lychees here would definitely make the fire brigade who came by for a while feel very weird, it is unlikely that it will be brought back from the middle of a pile of wasps now, and it can only be left there and people will leave first.
This kind of thing naturally doesn't need Hao Dong and them to go to the fire brigade by themselves, the queen called Director Xie, and then left it alone.
"Since the other party has such an arrangement, there should be news from the hospital soon." The queen speculated boldly.
The people who had an accident before should have accidentally seen something, so they were all injected with the drugs that were used on Hao Dong's body.
But the individual constitution is different, and the first guy who was injected with drugs couldn't bear it and died. After that, things got bigger, and they relented in the first few policemen in the back, so they just fell into a coma.
It's just that if there is a steady stream of people investigating in the vicinity, it is obviously very inconvenient for the wave of people who remain in the ruins of the hospital, so in the end they have to use means to open up the link of the army.
Then, whether it was intentional guidance or a simple coincidence, Hao Dong returned here and recovered a little bit of memory.
Those people either wanted to find the case, or the purpose was to confirm Hao Dong's situation, anyway, their purpose was achieved, so they retreated.
And judging from the fact that after they retreated, the whole thing suddenly had a ready ending, but I was afraid that I was really guided by others step by step.
It's just that what the other party's purpose is, at present, it should be confirmed that it is related to Hao Dong, but to what extent it is related, there is no way to understand.
On the return trip, the queen sorted out her thoughts, and Ergou was a little depressed: "This sounds like we are just crashing into a conspiracy, which is really a little unpleasant." ”
The queen also looked a little unhappy: "I also sent the portrait back for them to investigate, to see if they can trace some clues." ”
The man may have done some makeup, but it was a clue anyway. There is a bit of luck betting here, such as the other party's makeup skills are average, and they don't cover up particularly obvious features; Or maybe the other person didn't wear makeup at all.
In this situation of rushing headlong into the middle of the fog, no clue can be missed, and perhaps the truth is contained in a small clue.
The car was very fast, and after a long discussion, everyone returned to the hotel. It was the twilight of the western mountains, and the red fiery clouds indicated that the next day would probably be a sunny day.
On the way back just now, I saw a fire truck driving over, and I must have received an order to rush to the pile of ruins to deal with the big hornet's nest. However, the residents did not know and thought that the fire was on fire. They are all saying that if it gets so hot again this day, the whole town will probably have to burn up.
Looking at Ergou and Qi Jue, who ran to the barbecue as soon as they came back, Hao Dong felt that if there was really a large-scale fire, the cause of the incident would be the backyard here!
Ergou was eating the freshly grilled small yellow croaker, and at the same time, he was still thinking about the food: "It's a pity that the honeycomb is too big, and we can't get it if we don't have enough equipment." Otherwise, such a large honeycomb is estimated to produce a lot of bee chrysalis and honey. There is also beeswax, and that large hornet's nest, which is estimated to be worth a lot of money when sold to pharmacies. ”
Xiao thought for a while, and the foodie physique was troublesome, so he ran back to the room to discuss with Hao Dong: "Little mouse, let's go get some bee chrysalis to eat." ”
Hao Dong has not made any progress along the way, at least now, he has a certain degree of resistance to the idea of Ergou suddenly coming up with a convulsion:
"Wasps are venomous, there are so many species, some can eat and some can't. Can you tell? If not, then you can contact the fire brigade to see if you can get that thing for you to try for yourself, and it's a big deal that there's one more patient in the hospital. ”
Ergou hated iron and steel: "Aren't you greedy?" O bee chrysalis! Fry in a pan of oil, you don't have to put anything, just sprinkle a little salt, it's a delicious tonic! ”
Hao Dong ignored him, took his clothes and planned to take a shower.
It's still a little early before dinner, and the queen rarely has a little free, so she sorted out all the clothes she changed a few days ago, and threw everything except her underwear to Hao Dong and them to wash.
These things were originally the responsibility of Ergou, or find a laundry, or find a washing machine in the place where you live. But since Hao Dong joined the team, he assigned these things to Hao Dong twice.
So Hao Dong brought a bunch of dirty clothes in addition to his own change of clothes at this time, and planned to wash them together in the sink in front of the bath.
Ergou grabbed him: "Hey, don't pretend you didn't hear!" Seriously, I know there's an apiary twenty miles west of here. Don't say you're not greedy at all, brother, I don't believe it. ”
Before, Hao Dong thought that he was fighting the idea of that nest of wasps, so naturally he didn't agree with the idea at all. But when I heard that it was an apiary, I was a little excited.
The apiary has strict management and control over the size and number of bee colonies, so in addition to bee products, sometimes there are also cleaned bee pupae and even dead bees. Although it is generally not put on the table to sell, it is more that the internal employees digest it themselves, but if you take the money to buy it, as long as you find the right person, it is not completely impossible to buy.
Thinking of Ergou's strong supply and marketing ability, Hao Dong really didn't doubt that he knew such a person!
Seeing Hao Dong's obvious hesitation, Ergou knew that what he said this time was probably impressed by the other party, and immediately added chips: "In addition to silkworm chrysalis and honey, there are many types of honey in his house, such as loquat wolfberry, locust flower, jujube flower, and a lot of medicinal honey." By the way, there is also royal jelly, which is really fresh, it is taken directly from the hive, and it is many times purer than the ones sold on the market! ”
Ergou said that he came up, but he didn't notice that Qi Jue found that they were all gone, and he also found them back in the house. Hearing his boasting, he couldn't help frowning: "It's getting dark, where are you going?" ”
I said that I like the small theater of honey grapefruit tea very much:
"How to Poke the Honeycomb"
Ergou: Little mouse, have you ever poked a honeycomb?
Hao Dong: ...... I don't remember.
Two dogs: ...... Let's just say that you have any memories now, do you have them?
Hao Dong (shaking his head seriously): That's not it.
Queen: You're going to teach bad boys again!
Ergou: What's the matter! How could a little boy not do such a thing, I was helping the little mouse make up for his childhood!
Hao Dong: ...... (I always feel speechless.)
Ergou: Let's go! Let's go poke it once, I'll tell you, if you find the trick, you'll find the fun here!
Hao Dong: The trick?
Ergou: Yes, there is a trick. The most important thing is not to panic, no matter how comprehensive you are prepared to do, once you panic on the spot, it will often be bad.
Hao Dong: Oh......
Ergou: Then it is necessary to be well prepared, thick clothes, clothes that cover the bare skin of the head, hands and feet, all of which must be prepared. Then remember to bring matches or lighters.
Hao Dong: Huh?
Ergou: After the smoke is roasted, then poke the honeycomb, there are often surprises. Bee pupae that fall into the fire and roast until they burst are delicious, don't you know? There are also bees, which actually taste good when roasted.
Hao Dong: ............ (Suddenly I understand a little bit, Ergou is just a foodie attribute attack!)
Ergou: Then, before you start, you should find a way out, preferably if there is a water source nearby. If not, you must stay calm after poking the honeycomb, and don't run around when the bees are chasing you.
Hao Dong: ...... (Actually, if you want to eat honey or something, just buy it directly, why bother......
Ergou: Have you remembered what my brother said? Remember the words, come time dog!
So according to the standards of the two dogs, they found a beehive near the river.
Ergou: Are you ready? I'll light a fire when I'm ready.
Hao Dong nodded nervously, the second dog lit the fire, and after a while, the fire became bigger, and the second dog waved the bamboo pole and desperately knocked on the beehive until the whole beehive fell, then dropped the bamboo pole and turned his head and started running.
The demolished bees were violently slashing their heads and covering their faces and pressing towards Ergou, Hao Dong's eyes widened, watching Ergou try to mess with the bee swarm in danger and failed, and finally had no choice but to jump into the river to avoid the disaster.
The bee swarm was still circling on the surface of the river, and at the moment when the second dog made a move, he suddenly appeared and picked him up and flashed to the side, and the little Qi Ye calmly took him to the tree: "The roasted bee pupae and bees taste really good, and the beeswax is also delicious, come, taste it." ”
Hao Dong: Ergou he......
Qi Jue: Don't worry, we can leave the hive to him to sell for money.
Hao Dong: Oh.
So when the embarrassed Ergou finally returned to the shore, he was greeted by a pile of ashes that had been hollowed out inside, and a burnt black beehive.
