Decided to live by pretending to be a cat after being unemployed

"My dog ​​is barking, I'll go and have a look, and I'll be back soon." Lang Er said to the person on the other side of the phone.

"Oh, okay, you go, I'll buy a glass of water too." The middle-aged woman opposite replied, and after she finished speaking, the video on her side also went dark.

After Lang Er finished lying, he temporarily turned off the microphone, and finally had time to explain to the cat with question marks on his face: "This is Liu Yuyan's mother."

Liu Yuyan's mother?Guan Lin's ears moved, and he guessed what Lang Er was doing in an instant: "You added her mother's WeChat to find out the news?"

Lang Er nodded, and made another mistake of not being able to grasp the point of rambling. He poured out his itinerary for the past two days like beans in a bamboo tube, and dumped Guan Lin completely.

Lang Er went to try his luck, and the rabbit did not hit the tree again, nor did he encounter any coincidences related to intelligence. When he was in distress, a flash of light suddenly flashed across the dog's head. Ask, still can't ask online?

So he took his WeChat QR code picture in his mouth, approached Liu Yuyan's roommates and friends one by one, and asked these girls to add him in a cute way.

Of course, these girls didn’t know that the owner of the WeChat ID was the dog in front of them. They just thought it was the dog owner’s ingenious way of striking up a conversation. .

It turned out that it was not the case after adding it. Lang Er made himself a tabloid reporter, saying that he wanted to write a report on the two disappearance cases in Jiangcheng University, and he needed to ask them for some information. , I was worried that girls would be afraid to add WeChat after seeing them, so they sent dogs.

Although the girls were a little disappointed, they still cooperated and answered all the questions Lang Er wanted to ask earnestly. At the end, they also asked how the dog was trained, and even helped you ask for a girl's Weibo. Signal.

I skipped the part about how Lang Er taught dog training. Anyway, he didn’t get any useful information from Liu Yuyan’s roommates and friends. Liu Yuyan’s roommates and friends all had the same caliber, and he didn’t realize that Liu Yuyan had ever liked anyone. signs.

Seeing that the investigation was at an impasse, Lang Er happened to bump into Liu Yuyan's mother, Zhang Xia, today.

Zhang Ling's parents divorced a long time ago, and each started a family. They have always been indifferent to Zhang Ling's daughter. They only came to school once after knowing that their daughter disappeared, and never showed up again. The daughter's life and death can be said to be indifferent.

But Liu Yuyan's family is different. Liu Yuyan is a single-parent family. Her father died of illness early. Liu Yuyan and her mother Zhang Xia depend on each other. The mother and daughter have a very good relationship. Stacks of missing person leaflets were distributed on the street against the midday sun.

Not all of them are near the school. Liu Yuyan will search for any areas around the school that Liu Yuyan may go to. After searching, she will search again in the area she has searched. Today she happened to be near the school. So he added her in the name of a tabloid reporter and began to inquire about news.

Hearing this, Guan Rin interjected, "Have you heard anything?"

"No." Lang Er felt aggrieved: "I just asked a few questions and you came here, and you beat me when you came..."

He really should be wronged, after all, Guan Lin beat the wrong dog, but can Guan Lin admit it?Resolutely do not admit it.

"I'm just saying hello to you," the orange cat said forcefully, "who knew you would react so strongly."

Lang Er thought that it was because of your strength that I reacted the most, but he didn't dare to refute, obviously the orange cat didn't look like a very strong monster, but Lang Er was always subconsciously cowardly in front of the orange cat.

"She's back, hurry up and keep asking." Seeing the image on the opposite side of the video light up, Guan Lin immediately changed the subject.

"Oh." Lang Er obediently turned on the microphone again, pretending to be a reporter, and continued to ask, "Is there anything unusual about your daughter before she disappeared?"

Zhang Xia was opening the bottle cap of the mineral water to drink, but she stopped when she heard the words. She made a thoughtful expression, then shook her head, and replied with some white and chapped lips: "No, little Yan would call me once a day, and would tell me if there was anything, before she disappeared, she was just as usual, without any unusual behavior."

"Then does your daughter like someone in school?" After going through the foreshadowing of the previous questions, Lang Er finally got to the point.

It’s just that it’s the right topic for him and Guan Lin, but it’s a bit inexplicable for Zhang Xia. She doesn’t understand what the relationship between her daughter’s disappearance has to do with this question, but she still replied: “No, Xiaoyan’s thoughts are all on her studies. She knows that it is hard for me to raise a family by myself, so I have to work hard to get a scholarship every year, and I have less time to go out to play, and I haven't dated boys."

"There's no need to have a relationship, it's just a boy she has expressed a crush on, is there any?" Lang Er asked persistently.

Zhang Xia still shook her head, and said with certainty: "No."

There was nothing to gain. Both Lang Er and Guan Rin were a little disappointed. Since Zhang Xia didn't know Liu Yuyan's relationship status, there was no point in asking.

With a frustrated face, Lang Er asked a few more random questions, and then said: "Okay, the interview is over, thank you for your cooperation."

"Ah, you're welcome, I'm thanking you." Zhang Xia said again: "By the way, what's the name of your newspaper, when will this report be published, can you..."

She clutched the corner of the scarf and begged a little: "Help me to post the missing person notice and find clues about my daughter's disappearance."

"This..." Lang Er hesitated.

"It doesn't take much space, just post a photo, and I can pay for it..." Zhang Xia said quickly.

"It's not about money..." Lang Er looked at Orange Cat for help, where would he, a fake reporter, publish in the newspaper.

Guan Lin stared back: You ask me, who should I ask?

Lang Er had no choice but to turn his head and look at Zhang Xia again.Promise is impossible. Where can I find a newspaper to give it to her, but if I want to refuse Zhang Xia's request, I can't say it.

Because of Zhang Xia's eyes, she was not begging for anything too much, but just wanted to find her only daughter.Lang Er is a monster, but monsters also have feelings, he can't say no to such a mother.

He could only be ambiguous: "I will help you ask the leader..."

He didn't guarantee that he would publish the missing person notice, but Zhang Xia still had a little joy on her face, as if she had seen hope. She thanked him repeatedly and said that she would send some fruits to Lang Er.

Lang Er's thanked dog's face was full of shame, and he buried his head in his paws. He was a bad lying dog.

But after burying it for a while, he couldn't help raising his head again, and secretly looked at the woman on the other side of the video who was still thanking her.

In fact, when he bumped into Zhang Xia today, Lang Er didn't immediately recognize him. There was a photo of Zhang Xia in the file given by the police, but the person in the photo was very different from the person Lang Er had seen with his own eyes.

Although it is difficult and bitter to bring up her daughter alone, Zhang Xia is a person who enjoys life. She can take care of her skin and make up.He is 50 or [-] years old, but he doesn't look old. Instead, he looks like he has just passed [-], and the sideburns in front of him are frosty white. At first glance, she looks like an old lady in her fifties or sixties.

It's only been over a month since Liu Yuyan's disappearance until now.But for Lang Er, for Zhang Xia, it probably meant dozens of sleepless days and nights.

"I will help you find it." Lang Er suddenly said: "No matter what, I will do my best to help you find your daughter and give you an explanation."

What he said was serious and serious, and the lingering foolishness was diluted.

Whether it was Zhang Xia on the opposite side of the video, or Guan Rin next to him, they all froze for a moment.

After Zhang Xia came to her senses, she began to thank her again, but it was different from before. This time, her tone was choked with uncontrollable sobs.

Lang Er panicked and wanted to comfort her, but Zhang Xia still burst into tears.

While Guan Lin watched all this from the sidelines, he changed his opinion of Lang Er a bit. Although Lang Er's strength is weak and his personality is also timid, no matter how you look at it, he looks like a fake Wind Wolf clansman, but in terms of responsibility and responsibility, he is not bad. qualified.

After crying for a while and venting her emotions, Zhang Xia reluctantly recovered her demeanor. She wanted to wipe away the tears on her face, but when she saw that the tears seemed to be stained on the scarf, she quickly took out a tissue to wipe the scarf first, and then went to wipe the scarf. Face.

This is a relatively abnormal detail, Lang Er didn't pay attention to it, but Guan Rin noticed it, he realized that this scarf was probably more important to Zhang Xia, so he couldn't help but look at the scarf more, and this look, he looked at it Come up with a pattern that is likely to be a clue.

"Where did this scarf come from?" Guan Rin suddenly said.

Zhang Xia was startled by the sudden voice, and didn't answer.Lang Er hurriedly made up a lie to explain: "This is my colleague at work, who just came here..."

"Oooh, you're also a reporter, right?" Zhang Xia figured out Guan Lin's identity, and finally remembered to answer: "Xiaoyan gave me this, on August [-]th, the day before she disappeared, she told me She called to say that autumn is coming, so she knit a scarf for me, Xiaoyan has always been a filial child..."

Guan Lin didn't pay attention to Zhang Xia's chanting afterwards, his attention was only focused on the scarf, to be more precise, on the corner of the scarf, the very inconspicuous word "white" that you can't even see unless you look carefully.

Why was the word "white" embroidered on the scarf given to her mother Zhang Xia?The word "white" obviously has nothing to do with Zhang Xia, but it reminds people of a certain fox.

Although Guan Lin made a discovery, he kept holding back and didn't say anything. He waited for Lang Er and Zhang Xia to finish talking and hung up the video before he told the dog what he had discovered, and he asked Lang Er to investigate again. One thing, what did Bai Yiran do on August [-]th.

This time the search was quick, because Lang Er added a lot of WeChat accounts of girls from Jiangcheng University in the past two days, and almost all of them had heard about the gossip about Bai Yiran, the school girl. Lang Er asked a few questions before he found himself wanted information.

After Bai Yiran broke up with his last girlfriend in mid-July, he had been vacant for half a month. Everyone guessed whether he wanted the prodigal son to turn around and stop messing around, but when he turned around, on August [-]th, He hooked up with the beauty of the Faculty of Arts.

Combined with what Guan Rin saw in the police case file, a complete logical line formed in his mind.Liu Yuyan has a crush on Bai Yiran, but she has never dared to reveal it because she has a girlfriend, but after Bai Yiran broke up with his girlfriend in mid-July, Liu Yuyan felt that she had a chance.

She started knitting a scarf, wanting to express her love to the other party, but Bai Yiran had found a new girlfriend before she finished knitting the scarf, a confession she was preparing had to be cancelled, the gift was forwarded, and Liu Yuyan was depressed , went out to relax at night.

Therefore, there is no more audio.

Everything is right, the missing case under the full moon and the fox with the tradition of worshiping the moon happened to be active in the place where the crime happened. Zhang Lin has a crush on the fox, and Liu Yuyan also has a crush on the fox. One is a coincidence, the other is a coincidence, and the three always Can't be a coincidence?

Bai Yiran must be related to the disappearance case!

Not only Guan Lin thought so, but Lang Er also thought so. He was a little happy, because if the murderer was caught, he could help Liu Yuyan's mother find her daughter.

Although it's probably just a skeleton... but anyway, there is an explanation.

"Thank you for your help. I will write your credit when I write the report." Lang Er thanked the orange cat. After thanking him, he picked up his mobile phone and dialed a leader whose note was "Director Ge" phone.

But the orange cat held down the phone with its paw, and hung up the call before it could be dialed.

"What do you want?" Orange Cat asked.

"Report to the leader," Lang Er was puzzled, "I'm in charge of investigating the case. Now that the case is confirmed to be related to monsters and the suspect is identified, of course I have to report to the leader and let them send someone to catch the fox."

Lang Er said this at the beginning, his leader obviously knows his strength, so he is not allowed to take real risks, but let him investigate and investigate outside, and report when there is any situation.Lang Er has been delaying the report because he wanted to wait for it to be confirmed, lest he report the wrong information and let the people in the bureau go for nothing. Now that the evidence is sufficient, it can be submitted to the leader, and the rest will be arrested. It has nothing to do with him.

But Guan Lin disagreed with Lang Er's doing so. If Lang Er was asked to find someone to catch the fox, it would mean that Guan Lin would not be able to participate in the capture.Whether or not to participate is not the point, the point is that he can't use this to avenge his personal revenge, and beat the fox up when he is caught.

Regardless of whether Bai Yiran did the crime or not, anyway, he is completely tied up with Guan Lin's Liang Zi, and the hatred in his heart cannot be dispelled unless he beats him himself.

This was Guan Rin's real thought, but when it came to his mouth, he packaged it up and changed his rhetoric: "You have investigated to this point, and now you call someone, that skill must have been taken by someone else, you Think about it, if you solved the case alone and caught the murderer, wouldn’t it be a great achievement? Does the leader have to praise you more?”

Lang Ergou had no expression on his face, but his tail started to wag. Guan Rin's words hit the nail on the head, making his dog's heart flutter a little.

But Lang Er still hesitated: "But what if I can't beat the fox..."

"What are you afraid of?" Guan Rin said indifferently: "I'll help you catch it together, can the two of us still beat him?"

Lang Er's heart began to waver, and finally fell to Guan Rin. He always had a feeling that the orange cat was very powerful. It should be fine to catch a fox together, right?

"Then when will we do it?" Lang Er asked.

"August [-]th, Mid-Autumn Festival." Guan Lin said, "Anyway, there's only one day left, and we'll wait for him to attack Gu Huaishan, catch him and get all the stolen goods!"

By the way, beat him all over the place.Where Lang Er couldn't hear, Guan Rin silently added another sentence in his heart.

After the two made an agreement, they separated again. The orange cat went back to the milk tea shop, and Lang Er looked at his WeChat address book, and thought about the business card with the words "Director Ge" written on it. He still had a little hesitation in his heart. .

Although he has promised to act with Guan Rin, he still feels that it is a bit illegal to act without authorization, so he wants to prevent it. He will first talk to the leader branch, and he will talk about his investigation without going into too much detail. Progress or something.

He sent the other party a WeChat message of "Are you there", but Director Ge never replied to him, so Lang Er dialed the phone.

The phone rang more than a dozen times before it was connected. The address of "Director Ge" was interrupted by the other party just after Lang Er said the word "Ge".

"Lang Er? Is there something wrong?" The voice from across the network was distorted, but Lang Er could still hear a trace of tiredness in the other party's voice, and the urging voice in the other party's background sound asking him to check some files .

The Special Investigation Bureau has been very busy, Lang Er hurriedly said: "It's the two disappearance cases, I found some progress..."

He was about to start talking, but was interrupted by the other party: "There is progress, okay, then you keep working hard and keep working hard. I have something to do here, so let's not talk about it. Later, you write a report and send it to me by email." .”

With that said, he hung up the phone.

Lang Er listened to the busy tone on the receiver, his ears drooped, and he was writing an email again. The email he wrote ten days ago was not opened by the other party.

But since it was the leader's request, he still wrote it seriously with his dog's paw, wrote dozens of KB in a long way, and then clicked send.

According to Yi Langer's understanding of him, it will take about a month and a half for Director Ge to actually open this email.

Anyway, I reported it, it is not a violation.Lang Er thought
