"Potato, potato, where are you?" The old lady Lian Qinghua shouted as she walked, but there was no response, but she woke up other people's dogs, and barked a few times.

Cao Shujie looked at her back when she went back, and couldn't say.

Led Da Hei back to the house, Cao Shujie drove Da Hei into the kennel, and after leashing the dog, he went upstairs to sleep.

Cheng Xiaolin hadn't slept yet, when she saw him come in, she asked him, "Shujie, what's the matter?" ”

"Aunt Qinghua's dog was lost, and she came out to look for the dog." Cao Shujie said simply.

"Lost the dog?" Cheng Xiaolin thought for a while before saying, "Shujie, do you think there will be a dog stealer?" ”

"It's about to be the New Year, and someone is taking advantage of this time to come out and steal dogs." Cheng Xiaolin said.

Cao Shujie thought carefully and did not rule out this possibility.

"Shujie, you have to pay attention when you go out to walk the dog." Cheng Xiaolin told him.

Cao Shujie nodded: "Okay, it's not early, hurry up and go to bed." ”

……

The night passed, at five o'clock in the morning, when it was dark, a train entered the Yiling Railway Station.

After waiting for the train to stop, Cao Zhen got off the train with a backpack and two suitcases in tow with a loudspeaker.

Walking out of the exit passage, as soon as he walked to the station entrance, someone called him: "Director Cao, Director Cao, here." ”

Cao Zhen looked over and was the company's driver, Wei Gang.

I called him in advance, and Wei Gang came over at four o'clock in the morning to wait for him.

"Master Wei, I'm in trouble this time."

Cao Zhen said apologetically.

Wei Gang waved his hand again and again: "It's not troublesome, it's all as it should be." ”

He greeted him and stretched out his hands to help Cao Zhen take one of the suitcases: "Director Cao, you are back." ”

"What? What's going on in the company? Hearing this, Cao Zhen asked suspiciously.

Although Mingbo Textile Co., Ltd. is not a big factory, thanks to its special identity background, it is still very open in Pingyuan County.

Wei Gang knew that Cao Zhen would be wrong, so he hurriedly said: "There is nothing in the company, okay." ”

"I'm thinking about Director Cao, you went out on the 11th National Day last year, and now you're back, it's been almost four months in the blink of an eye."

The two chatted, and before they knew it, they came to the parking lot, Wei Gang took Cao Zhen to the old Jetta, he opened the trunk and put the suitcase in, and took Cao Zhen's other suitcase and put it in.

"Director Cao, get in the car."

"Let's go." Cao Zhen nodded, pulled the car door and sat in the back seat.

Waiting for Wei Gang to start the car and leave the parking lot of the train station, Cao Zhen said: "Master Wei, let's not rush back to the company, let's find a place to have breakfast first." ”

"Along the way, I just ate fast food, ham sausages, and I was sick to my stomach." Cao Zhen touched his belly and felt that compared with him in Changji, Xinjiang, he had really been wronged on the train in the past two days.

"Okay!" Wei Gang agreed, and then said, "Director Cao, there is a fast food restaurant in front of you, which is open 24 hours, let's go over there and have a look." ”

"Okay, let's go." Cao Zhen took out his mobile phone and wanted to call Patiguli, but at this point in time, Patiguli should be sleeping, so he sent her a text message.

What he didn't expect was that a few seconds later, Patiguli called, Cao Zhen looked at the flickering phone notes, and was also surprised, he answered the phone easily, listening to Patiguli's familiar voice, Cao Zhen's heart was much more steady.

"You're home, go back and rest more, eat more nutrients, don't exhaust your body......"

Patigul has been nagging, just two days apart, Patigul found that she is very uncomfortable now, and has a stomach to say to Cao Zhen.

Wei Gang, who was driving in front, also heard a faint female voice from Cao Zhen's phone, and he couldn't hear it clearly, so he thought: "Director Cao is looking for a partner in Xinjiang?" Good guys, will you come back later? ”

Obviously, he also thought of the same question as Cao Shujie.

But this was Director Cao's personal question, and he didn't open his mouth to ask.

Wei Gang drove to a 24-hour fast food store with a sign in front of his house that read 'Yili Fast Food', and stopped the car: "Director Cao, let's eat here." ”

"Let's go!" Cao Zhen is hungry now, and he doesn't care about it, so he will talk about it when he eats enough.

He said to the mobile phone that was a little hot: "Patigul, you sleep a little longer, I'll have some breakfast first, and I'll go to the company to report later." ”

"Okay, let's go eat." Patigul told him to eat more and drink a glass of milk.

Cao Zhen finished ordering and was eating, when he suddenly remembered something, he took out his mobile phone to log in to the QQ number, and sent a message in the small group: "Brothers, I, Cao Hansan, are back again, when will I have time to get together!" ”

After the message was sent, it was not until the end of the meal that no one replied.

"Cao Zhen, are you back?" Cao Shujie sent it.

Immediately afterwards, Cao Fei sent a message: "Have you arrived in Pingyuan, then you have to get together." ”

Cao Shuyang sent a message: "I'm still on duty on the highway, let's get together for the New Year, I have a shift these days, and I can't ask for leave." ”

Looks like he's the busiest one.

As soon as he finished speaking, Cao Tiemin shouted: "Shuyang, if you can't do it, quit your job and follow me, you can't earn money there all year round, what are you doing so hard." ”

"Get out, you give me six insurances and two golds, and you give me a pension!" Cao Shuyang doesn't eat his set, although the work at the high-speed toll station has to work night shifts, but he is not tired, the salary is stable, the benefits are good, and there are various bonuses.

When others chatted and farted, Cao Shulun never responded, and Cao Fei guessed that he might also be working the night shift in the factory, and it was not yet time to leave work.

Cao Shujie finally said: "It's better to wait for you all to come back after the holidays, come to my house when the time comes, and I will get you some delicious food." ”

"Okay, I haven't seen your new house yet." Cao Zhen happily agreed, and he said: "I have brought back a lot of local specialties from Xinjiang, and I will give you a share in a few days." ”

"Cao Zhen, you went to Xiaoxiao for half a year, and you didn't find a local daughter-in-law?" Cao Shujie teased him.

Cao Zhen replied to him: "How do you know that I didn't look for it?" ”

In an instant, the group fell silent!

In the 'Yili Fast Food' restaurant, Cao Zhen, who was eating breakfast, couldn't help but laugh when he saw this scene.

"Dog's day, let you keep talking about Lao Tzu being single." Cao Zhen was so happy in his heart that he quit his mobile phone QQ, put his mobile phone in his pocket, and began to eat seriously.

……

Caojiazhuang, Cao Shujie also just got up, it's almost the New Year, he also gave himself a holiday, and he got up later than usual today.

Seeing the last message in the QQ of the mobile phone, Cao Shujie was a little confused, and then reacted, and quickly tapped the keyboard of the mobile phone with two thumbs to send a message: ", you won't really look for a partner over there, Cao Zhen, send out a photo of your daughter-in-law to take a look, and the brothers will give you a counselor." ”

Cao Fei, Cao Shuyang and Cao Tiemin saw it, and they also joined in the fun, so they had to say that they would help Cao Zhen check and review it.

Cao Shulun, who had just been online, made a frightened expression after reading the chat, and then sent a message: ", has Cao Zhen found his wife?" ”

It's a shame that Cao Zhen didn't read the information at this time, otherwise he would have been able to stab him along the Internet.

A few people chatted in the group for a while, and then they learned that Cao Shulun also worked the night shift, because someone in their factory watched walking with his mobile phone during work hours, and finally hit the forklift that turned out of the small intersection, causing a lower leg fracture.

After this incident, the management of mobile phones in their factory has become more and more strict, although it has not reached the point of banning mobile phones in the whole field, but the employees in the factory do not dare to play with mobile phones as blatantly as before.

After Cao Shujie heard the howls of Daha and Erha outside, he finally sent a message: "You guys talk first, I'll go out to walk the dog." ”

"Go, go, go," Cao Fei was a little envious, and he then sent a message: "It is said that Shujie teases the baby and walks the dog, and this day is almost the same as a capitalist." ”

"Who's to say it's not, I want to go home and plant a garden." Cao Tiemin sent a message and said.

Cao Shujie got dressed, put the keys and mobile phone in his pocket, and went downstairs to lead the four brothers Daha and Erha towards the Yellow River barrage dam in the east.

Pug Xiaobai stayed in the kennel as always, and didn't want to go anywhere.

Coming to the dam, the four dogs each leaned up to their heads and barked.

Cao Shujie unleashed the dog for them, and was thinking about letting them run around by themselves, but suddenly thought of Aunt Qinghua's search for the dog last night, and he said to the four dogs: "Daha, Erha, Dahei, Xiaohei, don't run too far, go." ”

"Oh woo!"

"Oh!"

"Wow!"

"Wang, oh!"

Each of the four dogs barked differently, as if echoing Cao Shujie, and then ran forward.

In Cao Shujie's line of sight, the four dogs did not run far, and they also remembered what Cao Shujie said just now, and returned to Cao Shujie after running for a while.

Cao Shujie followed the four dogs and walked forward slowly, about half an hour later, Da Hei, who had just run to Cao Shujie's side, suddenly turned his head to look north, and 'Wang' screamed wildly, the cry was like thunder, which shook Cao Shujie's ears and hurt.

"Big Black, what's wrong?" Cao Shujie stretched out his hand and stroked the big black dog's head, the thick hair was very smooth to the touch, and he also followed to look north, and after a while, he saw a van running over there.

Cao Shujie thought to himself that someone from other places came back for the New Year?

Not long after, the van got closer and closer, and when Cao Shujie looked over, he suddenly felt that this car was a little familiar!

"Is this yesterday's car? Whose family? Or is it from Taodong Village? Cao Shujie thought in his mind.

When the car was about to run to Cao Shujie, the big black beside Cao Shujie screamed twice, and when he yelled, his teeth were exposed, and Cao Shujie felt a little scary when he looked at his canine teeth.

If this bite hits a person, you won't have to bite off the bone!

And the three people in the van also had this idea.

"Brother Qiang, look, isn't that the young man who walked the dog yesterday?" Wang Gaolin, who was driving, asked.

Lu Baoqiang was also turning his head to look out, his eyes were only the dog next to Cao Shujie, looking at its height of at least 60 centimeters and weighing sixty or seventy pounds, Lu Baoqiang's eyes lit up.

He thought the dog would sell for a lot of money.

But seeing the canine teeth exposed when Da Hei barked wildly, the bald Lu Baoqiang was also trembling with fright, he thought that if he was bitten by this dog, he would have to lose a large piece of meat on his body.

When he heard the younger brother say Cao Shujie, he also glanced at Cao Shujie in the co-pilot, and it happened that the van and Cao Shujie staggered by at this time, and Cao Shujie's eyes met Lu Baoqiang.

"Wang, Wang!" Da Hei shouted at the van a few more times, and Da Hei's body squatted, the back half of his body fell down, and the dog's eyes stared at the van, Cao Shujie knew that it was a prelude to attack at any time.

This scene made Cao Shujie wonder even more, Da Hei seemed to be particularly sensitive to it yesterday, and it is still like this today, what's going on?

At this moment, Da Ha, Er Ha and Xiao Hei, who were still running around not far away, also ran towards Cao Shujie.

When Daha and the van staggered, he also howled at the van with an 'oh woo'.

Unlike the previous howl, its voice at this time had a very thick wolf howl, it was really like a wolf that had awakened the blood of its ancestors, and the dog's eyes were staring at the van, which made Cao Shujie more and more confused.

But the three people in the car were even more confused, these two dogs looked very bad, what was the situation?

"Don't stop, move on." The bald Lu Baoqiang said.

Wang Gaolin, who was driving, nodded, and continued to drive forward at a constant speed, but they were also sure of one thing, the person who walked the dog just now must be living near here.

Thinking of this, the three of them felt a little hot in their hearts, and they were thinking about how to get hold of the four dogs.

Diao Facai, who was sitting in the middle seat, said flatteringly: "Brother Qiang, do you want to do it?" ”

"you, you're going down to catch them?" The bald brother scolded angrily.

Diao Facai smiled and said, "Brother Qiang, I think we can find an opportunity to drug them, like other dogs, no matter how fierce it is, as long as it takes our medicine, it has to be slaughtered obediently." ”

This is true, they specialize in stealing dogs, and naturally they have some means.

"There are still people, no!" The bald brother is also measured.

But he muttered: "It's really evil, we met that person twice yesterday, and we met him again today, so fateful?" ”

"Brother Qiang, you said he wouldn't doubt us, right?" Diao Facai suddenly asked.

Brother Qiang and Wang Gaolin, who was driving, were stunned for a moment when they heard this, Wang Gaolin even subconsciously stepped on the brakes, the van stopped abruptly on the road, and the engine was suffocated.

It took a minute or so for the van to restart and move forward.

"Brother Qiang, shouldn't it?" Wang Gaolin, who was driving, said hesitantly.

……

Cao Shujie leashed the four dogs one by one, he was still thinking about the van just now, thinking about seeing the bald middle-aged man in the co-pilot, he just took a look at the other party through the car glass.

I still remember that look, with anger, and I know at a glance that I am not a good person.

"What do they do?" Cao Shujie wondered.

Thinking about the two times that Da Hei yelled at each other yesterday and today, he thought that it could be that he stole a dog?

This was a flash of inspiration in my head, but the more I thought about it, the more I felt that it was really possible.

After all, a van with a foreign license plate went back and forth to their side twice at this point in time, and their village happened to lose a dog yesterday.

But he wasn't sure.

"Why don't you tell Uncle Jiangang and ask him to pay attention to the village meeting?" Cao Shujie had this thought in his heart.

Thinking that even if he admitted his mistake, it would be fine, so he dialed Cao Jiangang's phone and told him what he had found.

Who knew that Cao Jiangang was more simply, he asked: "Shujie, are you still on the dam now?" ”

"Uncle, I'm here." Cao Shujie didn't know what Cao Jiangang wanted to say.

Then I heard him say, "Shujie, in this way, you wait on the mountain first, and I will find a few people to go to the mountain to find you, you take a look, if that car passes by again, you stop it and see what they are doing?" ”

"You can't do that alone." He specifically advised.

Cao Shujie nodded and agreed: "Uncle, don't worry, I am measured." ”

"It's not worrying about the New Year, his grandmother's!" Cao Jiangang cursed.

However, Cao Shujie was also a little worried: "Uncle, shouldn't we set up a private roadblock?" Okay? ”

"What, you still want to say that I'm a road bandit village bully?" Cao Jiangang muttered to himself: "Just let them stop the car and ask what they are doing, if there is really a problem, we will make meritorious contributions." ”

"Even if it's okay, just say a few words and fool it over, it's a big thing, what's there to worry about." Cao Jiangang said.

The fierce performance is incisive.

"Okay, uncle, if it's true this time, I'll get them!" Cao Shujie was also ruthless!

However, after hanging up the phone, Cao Shujie also wondered why Cao Jiangang was so concerned.

When he saw Cao Shufeng coming over with six or seven people and guys, his doubts were solved.

"Brother Feng, why are you here?" Cao Shujie was particularly puzzled.

After Cao Shufeng saw him, he began to complain: "Shujie, you don't know, my dog ran out yesterday morning and hasn't come home until now, I wonder if any bastard gave me medicine and left." ”

"Paralyzed, if I catch him today, I'll have to break his leg." Cao Shufeng shouted.

Cao Shujie: "......"

Co-author Cao Jiangang, the village party secretary, is so active, and there is a reason for it.

His son's dog can't be found!

As soon as Cao Shufeng said that his dog could not be found, this made Cao Shujie even more sure of one thing, there were indeed dog thieves in their village who came to visit.

Otherwise, you wouldn't have lost two dogs at once in the same time period, and you might even lose more.

"Shujie, when do you say they're coming?" Cao Shufeng asked a little impatiently.

Cao Shujie couldn't say it well, he told Cao Shufeng about the time he met the van yesterday.

After listening to this, Cao Shufeng said: "Once at seven o'clock in the morning, once more than one o'clock at noon, it's a bit long." ”

"There's no way, we have to wait slowly, and we have to consider whether the other party is still going back from this road, if we go on several other roads, we may not be able to block them?"

"Again, I'm just guessing, and it's not necessarily true?" Cao Shujie specially explained.

Cao Shufeng shook his head, he said: "It's okay, in order to protect the safety of our people in Caojiazhuang, I would rather kill the wrong person than let it go." ”

This high-profile singing gave Cao Shujie a deeper understanding of the village party secretary.

Especially an old branch secretary like Cao Jiangang, who has been doing it for more than 20 years, is really a soil overlord!
