to blame

As persons involved in the case, Ming Xia and Song Qing are also fortunate to have a deeper understanding of the case.

The person swallowed by the python had died when he was rescued, and his facial features could not be seen at all due to the acid corrosion in his stomach. Therefore, whether this person is Qiao He or not needs further verification.

In addition to the man suspected to be Qiao He, there is also a Luo Luo in the python's belly.Judging from the corrosion marks on Luo Luo's body, it didn't take long to be swallowed. Whether it was the one that Ming Xia and Song Qing saw, there is also no answer.As for the question of where the boa constrictor came from, Ming Xia and Song Qing were no longer in the business of asking.

On the way home, both of them were a little dazed.Ming Xia really wanted to ask Song Qing, after such an experience, was her curiosity satisfied?But he was too tired to say anything.When he got outside the pet shop, he just waved to Song Qing lazily and went in.

That night, Ming Xia used the desk at the front desk as a bed again, and dragged her to sleep in front of the cat cage.

Ming Xia didn't realize that the beauty was still locked up by him until it was time to turn off the lights. She thought that the beauty would go crazy, but when she fumbled into the bathroom to pick up the cage, she found that there were cows and rabbits by the side of the cat cage. A calm look.Seeing Ming Xia opened the cage door, the beauty just glanced at him with a threatening expression, and then wandered around to the cow and rabbit to show her courteousness.

Ming Xiaoliu made a false alarm, and thankfully rubbed the bull rabbit a few times with the eyes of a beauty asking for debts.When he touched his ear, he vaguely remembered that Tu Qing also had a similar scar on his ear.

Ming Xia thought to himself, maybe this rabbit and Lao Tu really have some kind of fate.

Ming Xia was frightened during the day, even though there were beauties and cows and rabbits crowded around him to calm him down, he still woke up several times throughout the night, and when he woke up in the morning, his eye circles were all black.

After lunch, Ming Xia saw the sun just in time, so he simply moved the recliner to the edge of the flower bed outside the door, and then hugged the cat and rabbit to catch up on sleep.

When Li Youran came over, Ming Xia hadn't woken up yet, and was dozing on the recliner with an old windbreaker on.There was a fat cat lying on its belly, and a gray-haired rabbit nestled in the creaking nest. Looking at the edge of the flower bed next to it, there were several big cats lined up in a row. They were all sleeping in the dark, and their little claws were soft .

Li Youran leaned against the car window to admire the picture of the beautiful man taking a nap for a while, then took out his phone and secretly took a few photos.

Speaking of which, Ming Xia's appearance in sleep is far more attractive than when he is awake. His eyes are closed now, but his facial features are handsome, especially the line from the peak of his eyebrows, from the bridge of his nose to his chin, is like a sculpture The master has carefully carved it, and there is a sense of heroism in the exquisiteness.The eyelashes are also well grown, dense and straight, and slightly raised along the arc of the end of the eyes, like a shadow specially painted by a girl's family.

Li Youran was nympho posting the photos for a while, then turned her head and muttered to the birdcage on the passenger seat, "Leaving you here is really worrying."

The birdcage was two feet high, and a black bird was standing on one foot on the beam, humming without raising its head, "It's so rare."

Li Youran put away the phone, and hard-heartedly honked the horn twice.

The beautiful man's eyelashes trembled slightly, and he opened his eyes in a daze.Li Youran looked carefully, and found that as soon as this kid woke up, he blinked his big watery eyes, and immediately a look of foolishness appeared on his face, and the unique beauty and sense of sleeping face were all gone.

What a disappointment.

Still too tender.Li Youran thought with disgust, she is stupid and tender, not manly at all.

"Officer Li?" Ming Xia was startled when he saw someone staring at him when he opened his eyes, "What's the matter?"

Li Youran glanced back and forth at his face regretfully, reached out to pick up a bird cage from the seat next to him, "Our captain asked me to bring it to you, and asked you to help keep it for two days."

Ming Xia lowered his head, and his eyes just met the black bird curled up in a ball in the cage.The black bird stood up straight as if it had been struck by electricity, tilted its head and looked Ming Xia up and down, and then flapped its wings and sprinted over the bar with its mouth still gleeful. "Ouch, it happens to be my dish...my dish..."

Li Youran, "..."

Ming Xia, "..."

Li Youran laughed dryly, "Well, I'm just a little nervous."

Ming Xia seldom saw such a articulate bird, so he was a little curious, "Your captain still raises birds? Is this mynah? What's it called?"

Li Youran shook the cage angrily, "Call it whatever you want, even leftover chicken and dog. Don't all the old ladies in the country say that a cheap name is easy to support."

The red-mouthed mynah was walking up and down the beam excitedly, muttering incoherently while walking: "Hello... hello..." When he heard Li Youran's words, he immediately glared at her, "The eighth woman !Shut up!"

Ming Xia pursed her lips and laughed, she's quite smart.

"Hello, hello." Mynah's temper came and went quickly, and he glared at Li Youran, then started to croak again.The little guy whose combined head and feet are less than a foot long screams very loudly.Its wings spread and close continuously, and the dark feathers reflected a faint blue light in the sun, like the kind of hidden weapons that have been tempered with poison in martial arts novels.

"It's pretty cool," Ming Xia boasted, "Your captain is quite good at keeping pets."

Li Youran disdains, "Fart pet!"

Starling glared at her, "Want to fight?!"

"Is it hard to beat you?" Li Youran picked up the bird cage and patted it back and forth, "If you are so mean, I will throw you out to feed the cat!"

The starling flopped a few times in the cage, nestled on the crossbar and did not move.Ming Xia thinks that this starling is still very beautiful, with a bright red mouth and light orange-yellow paws, small round eyes with a clever, or cunning look, constantly turning around, harboring malicious intentions He looked Li Youran back and forth.

Li Youran asked it, "Are you still talking cheap?"

The starling fell silent.

Li Youran opened the car door and handed the bird cage to Ming Xia, "The captain said that it will take a few days for the mobile phone signal to recover. If there is anything wrong with you, just open the cage and let the bird go. It will fly back and take care of you." messenger."

Ming Xia was taken aback, and then a little moved.He thought Nanjiang was really loyal, even if Tu Qing entrusted him to take care of him, he was very considerate in such a meticulous way.

"It's too much trouble for Captain Nan." Ming Xia didn't know how to thank him, and he still hasn't fulfilled his invitation to invite someone to dinner last time.

Li Youran waved his hand, "What's the trouble here? He'd be happy without this bastard talking nonsense. Okay, the captain has been staying in the district these days. If you have a situation, you should contact him in time."

After finishing what should be said, Li Youran drove away in the car.

Ming Xia casually put the birdcage on the recliner.The cats and rabbits surrounded him, and the starling didn't panic, he combed his feathers contentedly, and even took the time to flaunt his cuteness to Ming Xia, "Handsome guy."

Ming Xia smiled, "My name is Ming Xia, this is Beauty, Cow Rabbit, what's your name?" The three sleeping by the flower bed had no interest in the little guests here, so Ming Xia will not introduce them for the time being.The longer she spends with the animals in the pet shop, the less Ming Xia dares to underestimate their IQ.

Mynah poked his head out of the cage, tentatively pecked Ming Xia's finger, and replied obediently: "My name is Qingqiu."

Ming Xia praised it, "It's really ambitious!"

I don't know whether it's Kua Mynah or the person who named it.However, to name a bird after the nine-tailed fox demon in "Shan Hai Jing" is honestly a strange thing.

After seeing Luo Luo and other rare monster birds, Ming Xia also began to seriously recall the content of "Shan Hai Jing".He also read this book at home when he was a child. Although most of the content has been forgotten, he still remembers a few sporadically.Qingqiu is a nine-tailed fox demon, and also eats people, which is quite characteristic, so it is easy to remember.

The mynah was full of joy, even if there were beauties circling the cage, it still laughed happily.Because it can laugh in several different voices, the beauty couldn't figure out its details for a while, but became more cautious.

Ming Xia also wanted to enjoy watching it.Isn't this the live version of "Giant Donkeys Are Poor"?After Qingqiu laughed a few more times, the beauty realized that this guy was nothing more than that, so it was time to pounce on him and lift the cage.

Qingqiu is a very lively guy, articulate and good at flattering, every mouthful of a "handsome guy" coaxes Ming Xia into laughing non-stop.Before it was dark, he had already started to think about how to get this little thing from Nanjiang for himself.

Before going to bed, Ming Xia still dragged the front desk table to the side of the cat and dog cages as he did two nights ago.The beauty has already adapted to this situation, and she is not so excited to see him occupying her table, but now it has another problem, not only has to serve the table by itself, but also put the cow and rabbit into Ming Xia's bed to sleep together.

Ming Xia has never been able to do anything with it, but fortunately the cow and the rabbit are very well-behaved, and they have the experience of taking a nap together, so they sleep soundly.

Ming Xia was awakened in the middle of the night.

When I opened my eyes in the dark, my chest was pounding.He didn't remember what terrible dream he had, but when he woke up, he found that he was covered in cold sweat and trembling uncontrollably.After a while, Ming Xia realized that she was woken up by the sound of flapping wings coming from the window.

It's not Luo Luo's fierce and domineering impact, but... the sound of Qingqiu thumping on the glass window, its two little claws scratching back and forth, as if looking for a point where it can exert force, so that it can be buoyant Rush out of the house.

"Qingqiu?"

Qingqiu slammed into the glass with a bang, and the night was quieter, the sound of the collision was so intense that it was shocking.

Ming Xia didn't bother to think about how it got out of the cage, and hurriedly threw off the quilt and ran over, trying to grab it and comfort it.But Qingqiu flapped his wings desperately, and the tip of the wing scraped across the back of his hand, which was hot and painful.

It looked as if it had been stimulated by something outside.

Ming Xia wiped the glass window with his hand, and the mist attached to the glass was pushed away, revealing the empty street downstairs and the empty and quiet square not far away.The stone statue of Nuwa is shrouded in a light mist, serene and quiet, looking down at the sleeping city in the night with a slightly compassionate expression.

Ming Xia suddenly realized that he was in a dream right now.He was resting in the store, not Tu Qing's room on the second floor.The doors and windows of the pet shop are closed with roller shutters, even if Qingqiu jumps to the window to make a fuss, he will not directly see the outside—it is still such a weird perspective.

Ming Xia woke up with a start.

On a quiet night, something was moving in his direction.

It was a person's footsteps, dull and sluggish, every step seemed to be walking on a muddy and difficult road.Take a look, it weighs more than a thousand catties.
