Chapter 23: Full of Doubts (Ask for Collection)
Lin Xuan rushed to the river, and carried the bobcat out of the water, making sure that it was not in danger of life, and then a frightening smile appeared on his face: "Little guy, you are too careless, right?"
After the wet lynx was rescued by Lin Xuan, he shook the water droplets on his body.
In a panic, it glanced up at Lin Xuan, the aura was overwhelming, and the depths of its eyes were filled with gratitude, and it rubbed its little head on Lin Xuan's calf twice, and then "swished" into the grass on the side.
Lin Xuan shook his head with a wry smile, turned around and was about to leave, when he saw the bobcat crawling and climbing a giant tree, blowing up its fur, and running all the way on the branches of the giant tree, but when Lin Xuan saw the group of hornets chasing after him, he suddenly understood something.
I wondered if this bobcat was so unlucky, could it have something to do with the moment he blocked it just now.
Did you inadvertently attack it with bad luck?
How could it be so unlucky? First it stepped on bird droppings, then licked it again carelessly, thought of washing its tongue by the river, fell into the river again, and was finally rescued, jumped into the bushes and provoked a swarm of wasps.
The bobcat jumped on the branches of the giant tree, and soon shook off the whistling hornets some distance, but as it flew and pounced on a branch thicker than its wrist, the dry branch snapped with a "click".
As it happens, there is a vigorous cactus growing right under the branch!
As you can imagine, the lynx screamed, and before it could get up from its cactus, the hornets swarmed in.
"It's so miserable!" Lin Xuan's eyes flashed with a hint of pity, and he only heard the place where the lynx fell, and the wails of "meow meow meow" rose one after another, and instantly became one.
Lin Xuan didn't continue to pay attention to the sad bobcat, but sped up and hurried towards the dark cloud town.
If nothing else, the two employees he recruited soon came to the bar to report.
It's really exciting to see a cute boy who can increase the popularity of the bar and a handsome waiter who can attract a rich woman.
With the wind boots given by the system, Lin Xuan no longer has to worry about the long distance.
In less than ten minutes, he rushed back to the town of Wuyun from the west coast, dozens of miles away.
In the early morning, the town was peaceful, only a few old people who were exercising in the morning, pointing and talking about something in front of the king's bar.
"Lao Hu, are you saying that this bar was renovated by the new owner?"
"Who else could it be, not him?" I heard firsthand, and the decorators told me that they had been hired by the owner. ”
"Hmph, I know that young man who is a disciple is not very reliable to be the owner of our island, and he keeps saying that he wants to lead everyone to make a fortune, and the first thing he did when he came to the island was to renovate this shabby bar, and he was sick in the brain, right?"
"Shh......h Lao Luo, you don't want to die, slander the island owner, but you will be beheaded!"
"What's wrong with cutting off the head? Don't let people tell the truth? With the money to renovate the bar, it would be more practical to donate it and hire experts to improve the soil on the island and build a few more vegetable greenhouses." ”
"Lao Luo is right, the new owner is indeed too young, and it is easy to be impulsive, even if this bar is well decorated, can it still attract customers from the outer islands?"
"Okay, let's not say a word, think about it, our island has been abandoned like this, how many years have no one wanted to be the owner of this island? ”
While everyone was discussing, Lin Xuan walked over with a smile.
Several old people's expressions suddenly changed, and they greeted Lin Xuan respectfully: "Island Master, morning!"
"Well, everyone's morning!" Lin Xuan smiled slightly, and did not take the words of these islanders to heart in the early stage of the development of SH Island, it was indeed incomprehensible when he came up to renovate the bar, but Lin Xuan didn't bother to explain to them, since it was Wuyun Island, there would always be a day when the clouds would open and the moon would shine.
Passing by the bar, Lin Xuan did not go back to the residence on the second floor of the bar first, but went to school.
He found the wreckage of the mourning boat and the body of Dr. Wu's son on the beach, but did not find the black grapefruit.
was hesitating how to explain to Aunt Meng, and ran into Aunt Meng in the courtyard of the school.
When Aunt Meng saw Lin Xuan, she greeted her anxiously and told Lin Xuan that not long after he left last night, Heiyu ran back covered in blood, but she locked herself in the room and refused to come out.
"I'll give it a try. Lin Xuan comforted Aunt Meng, vaguely guessing what happened last night, it was already an unfortunate luck that Heiyu could come back alive.
The custom of the island is to send the dead to the depths of the sea in the midst of strong winds and waves.
It is estimated that the wind and waves were too strong last night, the funeral boat was overturned by the huge waves, and the islanders who saw off Dr. Wu and Chen Lao were killed and injured, Heiyu couldn't accept this fact, so he locked himself in the room.
However, when Lin Xuan knocked on the door, he found that what had happened was not as he thought,
Kuroyu cried out indignantly, saying that a mysterious merchant ship had attacked them and snatched Dr. Wu's body.
"What? Someone snatched Dr. Wu's body? There is no reason, why would they be so interested in a corpse? Could it be that Dr. Wu has some secrets hidden in him?" Thinking of this, Lin Xuan's eyes suddenly widened, and a look of disbelief appeared on his face.
"I don't know. Kuro shook his head, "But I always feel that the murderers are the same gang as tonight's robbers." ”
Lin Xuan nodded, he also had the same feeling, from the very beginning, the enemy's target was Doctor Wu, but why kill people and not let go of the corpse?
According to normal logical thinking, there must be something on Dr. Wu's corpse that they thought of.
But what could it be?
Lin Xuan and Heiyu were full of suspicions, and asked almost every old man in the town, and finally found out from an old man who was not very conscious that Dr. Wu's brother was the personal bodyguard of a rich man on Giant Coconut Island, but for some reason, he turned against the rich man, and with his own strength, he killed the rich man and several strong people around him, and stole something.
Later, Dr. Wu's brother was arrested by the coast guard of Tianlong Island and imprisoned in a sea prison, and the coast guard tried all kinds of methods to torture and extract a confession, but they never found out the whereabouts of the thing from the mouth of Dr. Wu's brother.
The delirious islander's crazy words made Lin Xuan and Hei Yu fall into contemplation at the same time, what was it that was so important that the enemy still remembered it after many years, and snatched Dr. Wu's body?
At this moment, the only working public phone in the town rang, Heiyu glanced at the caller number, his expression changed slightly, and before lifting the microphone again, he said to Lin Xuan on the side: "It's a call from the coast guard of Tianlong Island!"
