Pastoral Daily Life

Out of caution, Lu Lingxi and the others quickly returned to the workstation.

The staff inside were a little surprised, "Why did you come back so soon?"

Wang Chaoliang had already listened to Yan Yue's story on the way, and immediately recounted it concisely.He had seen Dahei Xiaohei being smart, and he had no doubts about the little monkey Yan Yue mentioned that was smart enough to give them an early warning.He was worried that the other two staff members would not believe it, but after he finished speaking, one of the staff members thought for a while and smiled: "I know which little monkey you are talking about, a very smart little guy, Occasionally, it will come to the workstation. However, it is very vigilant and rarely takes the initiative to deal with people. It is really rare to be able to give you an early warning this time."

There are many monkey groups living in the rainforest in Kunnan. These monkey groups are far away from human gathering places and rarely appear in front of human beings.The staff at the workstation also saw them occasionally when they went out, and the little monkey Yan Yue was talking about was the liveliest and boldest one.Last time, he used a flower gesture to exchange the bread in their hands, but it was also after observing them for a long time to make sure that they were not in danger.This kind of situation like Yan Yue mentioned really rarely happens.

The topic of several people's discussions quickly focused on the little monkey. Although Yan Yue found it interesting, he had to interrupt them and asked a question that he had been thinking about for a long time. "What will the little monkey see in the early warning?"

On this point, the staff present did not know.But according to their understanding of the little monkey, there must be some danger ahead.Either a human or a large dangerous animal.One of the staff tends to be human.Because this rainforest borders other countries, there are many smugglers and drug smugglers who venture out.Fortunately, firstly, the rainforest is too dangerous, and secondly, the armed police at the border are very strict, so nothing has happened in this area.However, some time ago, the anti-drug police here in Kunnan destroyed a large-scale overseas drug smuggling and trafficking group, and ran away several of its main leaders. I am afraid that they would flee here.

It's okay if he doesn't say anything, don't talk about Yan Yue after he finished speaking, even Lu Lingxi is aware of the seriousness of the problem.

The staff explained with a smile: "Don't worry, because of the unique environment in the rainforest, the eyesight is limited. Except for the little monkeys, ordinary people who stand tall can't see very far. Besides, there are border police patrolling regularly, nothing will happen. .”

When the other party said that, Yan Yue couldn't say anything more.But for the rest of the time, he and Lu Lingxi were very conscious, and controlled the range of activities within a few hundred meters near the workstation, not daring to get too far away.

Not far behind them, the tall and strong man who followed them all the way before climbed the hanging vines and turned over to the tree a few times, and looked in the direction of Lu Lingxi and Yan Yue with a small telescope.He recognized the workstation in the botanical garden, and guessed that Lu Lingxi and Yan Yue were probably new employees here.It seemed that the two probably didn't see anything, otherwise they wouldn't have stayed here.As a result, the tall and strong man hesitated a little, whether he should listen to the boss and take advantage of them alone.

After he hesitated, Yan Yue was keenly aware of something, and looked in the direction of the man thoughtfully.Although he couldn't see anything, Yan Yue felt that something was wrong.He pulled Xiao He out from his wrist and said something in a low voice, and then heard Xiao Hei hissing in agreement, and then got into the grass.After a while, several brightly colored poisonous snakes swam out of the grass, and were driven by Xiao Hei to the direction of the man.

The man didn't react at first, but soon realized something was wrong.Suddenly a small green snake sprang out from under him and bit him. The man reacted very quickly and jumped off the tree, dodging the attack of the small snake.He was rejoicing in his heart when he suddenly felt a tingling pain in his ankle.As soon as he lowered his head, another small green snake was hanging on his shoe, opening its mouth and biting him forcefully.This kind of snake is known to men, and it is a common poisonous snake in the rainforest.He hurriedly dug out the antidote he always had on his body from his bag, applied it on the wound, and left here in a hurry.The man left in such a hurry that he didn't even notice that the binoculars on his body were dropped on the ground.

As soon as he left, Yan Yue rushed over when he heard the movement, and his face was a little ugly when he saw the telescope on the ground.

Lu Lingxi also saw the telescope and asked nervously, "Is there any danger?"

Yan Yue frowned slightly, and said in a low voice: "I'm afraid it is." At this time, he couldn't help but start to miss Dahei, in terms of vigilance and chasing people, Dahei would beat Xiaohei by a hundred blocks.Yan Yue sighed, "It would be great if Dahei or Fang Lei were here."

Lu Lingxi thought about this idea seriously, and privately felt that Dahei was more reliable than Fang Lei.

Fang Lei, who was far away in the urban area of ​​Kunnan, didn't know that he was missed by Yan Yue, so he sneezed several times in a row. "Strange, maybe Xiaohui misses me." Fang Lei muttered to himself.It was inconvenient for him to bring Xiao Hui out with him on this business trip, so he entrusted Xiao Hui to a colleague like last time.In order to prevent the little gray cat from making trouble, he also specially explained to his colleagues, don't feed Xiao Hui cat canned food all the time, Xiao Hui prefers to eat small dried fish, and occasionally he has to improve Xiao Hui's life.

Thinking about it this way, Fang Lei felt that he really missed Xiao Hui a little bit.I don't know if Xiao Hui is obedient these days when he is away, if the food is good, and if his colleagues buy Xiao Hui dried fish.He looked up, and there happened to be a food stall on the side of the road selling crispy dried fish, a specialty of Kunnan.Fang Lei's heart moved, and he went to ask the boss to weigh half a catty, and it was his supper at night.

Carrying the dried fish that he had agreed upon, Fang Lei strolled back to his place of residence.Because it is expected to stay in Kunnan for a long time this time, Fang Lei and the two colleagues who came with him did not stay in a hotel in order to save money, but lived in an old house in Kunnan where a colleague did not live often.

When he returned, the two colleagues who were with him were not at home.Fang Lei was about to open the door, but suddenly stopped, and the feeling of being stared at in the morning reappeared.He suddenly turned his head and glanced around vigilantly, there was nothing suspicious around him.Fang Lei's face darkened, his intuition from years of work convinced him that it was not an illusion just now, that something was really staring at him, could it be related to this case, and those people who ran away came back to report the news?

When Fang Lei was suspicious, he suddenly heard a meow, and a yellow tabby cat jumped to the top of the wall in the alley. Its green eyes looked straight at him, giving him a feeling of being stared at.He couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief. It turned out that it was a cat, and he was a little nervous.Fang Lei felt relieved, thought for a while, poured out the small dried fish in his hand and put it in a corner against the wall, signaling the tabby cat to come and eat the dried fish.

The tabby cat didn't move at first, and Fang Lei didn't care.Cats are always wary of people, and when he is gone, tabby cats will dare to come and eat.He thought about opening the door, but before he entered the room, a gray figure rushed over and scratched his face rudely.Almost as a conditioned reflex, Fang Lei quickly took a step back, taking advantage of the slowness of the little thing in front of him, he grabbed it.

"Little Hui!" Fang Lei said in shock.

The one caught in his hand was Xiao Hui, who was supposed to stay in Fengcheng obediently. Xiao Hui waved his paw angrily, and the fur on his body exploded angrily.It's a pity that Fang Lei has accumulated a lot of fighting experience in the process of getting along with it, and he is holding Xiao Hui just at a distance that Xiao Hui can't scratch his face.

"Xiao Hui, why are you here? How did you come here?" Fang Lei asked curiously.

The little gray in front of him looked clean, he didn't look like he had rushed to Kunnan after a long journey.Fang Lei really didn't believe that Xiaohui could escape from Fengcheng to Kunnan by himself.

Xiao Hui meowed angrily twice.

Fang Lei didn't know whether to laugh or cry when he heard this, he found a small plate and poured out the dried fish in it, put it in front of Xiao Hui, and coaxed: "These dried fish are bought for you, I just thought Xiao Hui likes to eat them when I was outside. Xiaoyugan, I just shared some with other cats."

After hearing this, Xiao Hui yelled twice.

Fang Lei ran along its fur in a funny way, and promised: "Okay, the dried fish will be small gray in the future, and I won't give it to other cats."

Xiaohui seemed to be satisfied with Fang Lei's promise, squatting in front of Xiaodie and started eating the dried fish.

Fang Lei was still curious as to how Xiao Hui got here. Unfortunately, Xiao Hui refused to answer this question, but Fang Lei knew that the tabby cat outside was Xiao Hui's younger brother, who was responsible for watching him when he went out. whereabouts.There are still several little brothers like this, distributed in different places in the alley.If Xiao Hui hadn't been so angry when he shared the dried fish with the tabby cat just now, Xiao Hui wouldn't have jumped out to settle accounts with him.

Fang Lei smiled and shook his head, rubbing Xiao Hui's swollen belly, Xiao Hui's comfortable belly turned upside down, and meowed a few times from time to time.

The atmosphere of one person and one cat was just right, and the phone in Fang Lei's pocket rang.As soon as he picked up the phone, his colleague said anxiously: "The border armed police just discovered the whereabouts of the few drug traffickers who slipped through the net in the border rainforest. The local police have sent people there, and we have to follow them quickly."

Before the colleague finished speaking, Fang Lei grabbed the car keys and went out.As soon as he left, Xiao Hui jumped into the car right behind him.Fang Lei couldn't care less about what to say to Xiao Hui at this moment, he tilted his head and held his phone between his hands while driving and said, "I'll meet you at the police station right away, tell me what's going on first? How did you find the trace? Are you sure it's that guy?"

The colleague said: "It's only 80% confirmed now, but the telescopes found on the scene are commonly used by their group. You know that their things are all bought from abroad. They are things that have been retired from the army. There are no domestic ones, so there are many. They may be the biggest ones. As for how they found it, I heard that it was discovered by two tourists in the rainforest, and they also reported it to the police and contacted the border armed police."

"There are still tourists in the rainforest?" Fang Lei was surprised: "Don't all the tourists go to Kunnan Nature Reserve? There are also such people who go to the wild forest?"

The colleague laughed when he heard this, "Some tourists are too courageous to go to the protected area, so they like to hang around outside. Besides, the two tourists did not go alone this time. There is a field workstation in the botanical garden in the rainforest. They went with the employees at the workstation."

The botanical garden, staff, and two tourists, the combination of these words gave Fang Lei a bad feeling. He remembered calling Yan Yue in the morning, and what Yan Yue said was to go around with a friend of the botanical garden. Will it be such a coincidence?

Fang Lei was beating his heart all the way, even when he met his colleagues at the police station and was teased by them to go out with a cat, he didn't have much thought to respond.He turned his head and glanced at the mighty and domineering Uncle Mao squatting on the co-pilot, and smiled wryly in his heart. It would be convenient for Yan Yue and Lu Lingxi to entrust Xiao Hui to them.

Several people galloped all the way, and soon arrived at the small village on the border.The nearby border armed police are stationed here, and the local police station is also located in this small village.Fang Lei saw Yan Yue as soon as he got out of the car.The colleagues who came together asked about the specific situation and asked Fang Lei to wait in the car first.Taking advantage of this meeting, Fang Lei ran to Yan Yue and looked him up and down: "Are you all right?"

Yan Yue was taken aback, "Fang Lei, why are you here?"

Fang Lei said in a low voice: "Do you still remember the incident at the beginning of the year when someone tried to plant a poison in Little Tibet?"

Yan Yue nodded.

"That's the case. I followed the vines and searched deeper and deeper, and directly dug up a drug trafficking group outside the border. Now I have arrested many drug dealers. During the previous arrest, I ran a few big fish. It is estimated that you met Those few people." At this point, Fang Lei changed the subject, "Where is Xiaoxi? How did you meet that group of people? My colleagues didn't know what they said on the phone."

Yan Yue's expression was a bit serious, "Xiaoxi and a few friends are resting inside. As for the encounter, we didn't meet, they came here." He started from warning the monkey when he was a kid, and continued to tell Xiao Hei to drive away the poisonous snake when he felt something was wrong. After investigating, it turned out that someone had left a telescope, and finally they left the rainforest and called the police.

Fang Lei was dumbfounded, and immediately lowered his voice, "You didn't tell the police just like that, did you?"

Yan Yue chuckled, "Don't worry, I'm not so stupid yet."

But apart from Xiao Hei, the rest of Yan Yue didn't hide it.He honestly told about the little monkey's early warning, and he suspected that it was from there that he and Xiaoxi were targeted.

Fang Lei also thought so, "That group of people was probably nearby at that time, if the little monkey hadn't warned you, you would have met together. It was also because you left early, otherwise it would be dangerous, that is a group of desperadoes. Later, I probably thought that you had discovered them, and wanted to take a look at the situation and take advantage of your order so as not to reveal your whereabouts."

Yan Yue nodded, he was worried about this, so after seeing the telescope, he made a decisive decision and left the rainforest with the two staff members in the workstation, and immediately called the police when he returned to the village.

Fang Lei reminded: "They have already set their sights on you and Xiaoxi. You and Xiaoxi should stay in the village for the time being and don't go back to Kunnan. It will be troublesome if there are their accomplices over there. When this operation is over, we will Go back with you."

Yan Yue hummed and agreed.While the two were talking, Xiao Hui jumped out of the car window with an arrow, and found Lu Lingxi following the smell.

"Little Hui?" Lu Lingxi blinked, wondering if she had read it wrong.

Xiao Hui lightly jumped into Lu Lingxi's embrace, and her furry paws touched Lu Lingxi's arm, and meowed affectionately.

When they got close, Lu Lingxi recognized that it was Xiao Hui, it wasn't his mistake.He hugged Xiao Hui in surprise, and couldn't believe it, "Did Brother Fang come? But it's not right, Brother Fang is here on a business trip this time, why can you bring Xiao Hui with you?"

Xiaohui held her head up triumphantly, biting Lu Lingxi's sleeve and beckoning him to go out together.Lu Lingxi talked to Wang Chaoliang, went out with Xiao Hui in his arms, and followed Xiao Hui all the way to Fang Lei's car.Fang Lei and the others didn't come to Kunnan this time like Lu Lingxi and Yan Yue came by plane, but a few colleagues took turns driving all the way from Fengcheng to Kunnan.Xiao Hui nimbly jumped from Lu Lingxi's arms to the trunk, patted her paw lightly, and squatted there without moving.

Lu Lingxi was stunned, "Did Xiaohui hide here and follow?"

Xiao Hui licked his paw and meowed, which was an admission.

Lu Lingxi didn't know what to say.

"Xiaoxi."

After Yan Yue and Fang Lei finished talking, they looked at Lu Lingxi standing alone behind Fang Lei's car and didn't know what to look at.The two came over, and they couldn't help being surprised when they saw Xiao Huiyan.Compared to Yan Yue, Fang Lei was more surprised that Fang Lei brought Xiao Hui with him on a business trip, but Fang Lei squatted on the trunk of Xiao Hui and guessed something, and said in a strange tone, "Xiao Hui, have you been in the car all the time?"

Xiao Hui jumped into Lu Lingxi's arms and refused to talk to Fang Lei.Fang Lei laughed, stretched out his hand to pull Xiaohui out, and patted its head, "You are lucky that this car is badly damaged and the trunk is not closed tightly, otherwise something will happen if you hold it in."

Meow.Xiao Hui scratched Fang Lei's paw angrily.

Fang Lei had no choice but to stuff Xiao Hui back into Lu Lingxi's arms, but Xiao Hui became even angrier.

Meow meow.

Fang Lei: "..."

What a cat man.
