Memoirs of a Kangaroo Unemployed

"Didn't you look for him for something, but I went to his house several times in the past few days, but I couldn't find anyone, and the rest of the family didn't know his whereabouts. I was afraid that he would have an accident, so I called the police. Officer Wu said he Come back in the afternoon."

"Okay, we'll be there in a minute."

After hanging up the phone, Liszt told Shan Zeng the reason.

Liszt also didn't know much about Bai Que. If Shan Zeng wanted to study thoroughly, he had to ask Ye Qianrong on the spot.

The tree spirit Lao Ye had already reported this matter to Wu Xiaolu, even if Shan Zeng didn't want to, the three of them still had to go together.

After getting ready with Liszt, the two got up and went to Wu Xiaolu's house.

Wu Xiaolu was not surprised by the arrival of Shan Zeng and Liszt. Liszt explained his purpose, but he just led them in.

In fact, Shan Zeng did not hide the book with the eavesdropping amulet. After asking Liszt that day, Shan Zeng put the book back into Liszt’s bookcase, took a thick book to cover it, and hid it.

There was no secret in talking with Liszt at home, and Shan Zeng also untied the barrier in time.So Wu Xiaolu didn't notice anything unusual, and continued to eavesdrop as before.

The two were invited to sit down by the sofa, but the host, Wu Xiaolu, hung his head and did not lift it up for a long time. Liszt was about to ask something. expression.

"Captain Shan, I have something to ask you..."

"……What's up."

Wu Xiaolu heaved a long sigh, with a sad expression on his face, "Captain Shan, I guess Liszt told you too, Elder Bai Que has an extraordinary status, if he really disappeared, I don't know how to explain to the superior..."

Shan Zeng vaguely knew what he wanted to say, and was waiting for his next post.

Wu Xiaolu changed his attitude of begging for help, and said to Shan Zeng: "Can I not report to the superior before the case is clarified?"

Ever since he knew that Wu Xiaolu was eavesdropping on Liszt, Shan Zeng was very suspicious of Wu Xiaolu's words and deeds. After knowing that he had such a need, he had to think that he wanted to hide something.

Liszt raised his hand, indicating that he wanted to interrupt: "Wait, although I don't understand, it's not good for you..."

Wu Xiaolu grabbed his thigh and wanted to say something, but Shan Zeng stopped him.

"Go to the case first, and talk about the rest later."

He stood up first and let Wu Xiaolu lead the way. Although he felt a little dissatisfied, Wu Xiaolu took the car keys and led them downstairs.

Liszt didn't see the icon on Wu Xiaolu's car key, and asked Wu Xiaolu curiously, "When did you have a car?"

"Well, I bought it years ago."

Arriving at the parking lot, Wu Xiaolu pressed the car key in his hand, and a white car next to him lit up.

Liszt's eyes lit up, and he hurried forward, seeing the logo of the white car, he was startled.He couldn't help but said to Wu Xiaolu: "Oh, Wu Xiaolu, buy such a good car."

Wu Xiaolu smiled awkwardly, and opened the car door with one hand, "My dad bought it for me, I don't have the money."

The three of them got into the car, and Wu Xiaolu set off for Hegang Town.

The interior decoration of Wu Xiaolu's car is a bit low-key and luxurious. Coupled with the brand of the car, Liszt guessed that the car cost at least 50.But he remembered that Wu Xiaolu's father was also a civil servant in the demon world, so he had no money to buy this car.

So Liszt tentatively asked him: "Wu Xiaolu, is your father no longer a civil servant?"

Wu Xiaolu glanced at Liszt through the rearview mirror, "You don't trust people."

"Say, are you corrupt?" Liszt asked urgently.

Wu Xiaolu surrendered, "It's worth it, let me tell you, it wasn't my own father who bought it for me, okay?"

"Hehe, it doesn't say on my household registration information that you still have a 'godfather'?"

"It doesn't say on the household registration information that I am a temporary investigator of the Central Crime Bureau." Wu Xiaolu raised his eyebrows.

Liszt threatened him: "Hmph, you are changing the concept secretly. If I find out that you have violated the law and discipline, don't blame me for reporting you."

The speed of the car was a bit fast, Xu Hua turned a sharp turn, Liszt lost his seat all of a sudden, and fell to the side, but fortunately Shan Zeng caught him in time.

"Damn!" Liszt became angry.

"Hahaha." Wu Xiaolu couldn't hold back, overjoyed, "I'm sorry, I really didn't mean it."

Only a fool would believe it, "Hmph!"

Although Hegang Town is not far from the county seat, it is still some distance from the village where Bai Que lives.After driving for an hour, they finally arrived at the village, and Ye Qianrong was waiting for them at the entrance of the village.

The car stopped in front of Ye Qianrong, and he greeted the three of them, "Officer Wu, Director Li, um... hello."

Liszt explained, "He is the investigator of the China Crime Bureau on the phone in the morning, Shan Zeng."

"Oh ~ Leader Shan, hello, hello."

Shan Zeng shook hands with Ye Qianrong, "Just call me Shan Zeng."

Letting Ye Qianrong get into the car, Wu Xiaolu drove the car all the way to the end of the road.

Ye Qianrong, who was always pointing the way, said: "Just get off the bus here, and there is still a section of mountain road ahead."

Several people got out of the car and walked up a mountain road led by Ye Qianrong.

"Elder Bai Que usually doesn't like to deal with us juniors. Elder... Be careful not to sink here." Reminding the people behind, he jumped across a small canal, and then said to them: "The elder lives in a relatively remote place. I don’t see him once a month.”

Liszt hadn't walked on the mountain road much, so he didn't know how to pay attention to his feet. When walking on the ridge, his feet just stepped into the water outlet of the rice field.

Liszt: ...

Shan Zeng walked behind Liszt, saw that he was at a loss, squatted down, supported his legs, then picked up a handful of grass, folded it in half, and wiped off the mud on Liszt's sneakers.

Liszt stood, not knowing why from the beginning, but after a long time he began to shrink his feet in shyness, and Shan Zengben's hand, which was holding Liszt's calf, slipped to his ankle.

"Itchy." Liszt shrank his feet again, the skin on his ankles was very sensitive.

Shan Zeng felt the friction between the smooth skin and his hand, and let go of his hand like an electric shock. Liszt, who lost his balance, almost fell into the field.

Shan Zeng had quick eyes and quick hands, and hugged him, "I'm sorry, it's okay."

Liszt blushed, his heart was beating fast, he hurriedly pushed Shan Zeng away and replied, "It's okay."

Wu Xiaolu and Ye Qianrong, who was leading the way, walked for a while before realizing that they hadn't followed. They turned around and shouted to the two of them who were standing: "Hey! What are you doing, follow up quickly."

The shoes hadn't been wiped clean yet, so Liszt couldn't care less, he whispered, "Let's go." He ran towards Wu Xiaolu.Shan Zeng was taken aback for a moment, and then slowly followed.

Wu Xiaolu saw Shan Zeng coming up and asked, "What are you doing with the bale in your hand?"

Only then did Shan Zeng realize that he was still holding the bundle of grass in his hand, like holding a hot potato, and immediately threw the grass aside.

Looking at the grass thrown to the side of the road, with the mud wiped from his shoes still stained on it, and the feet of the dirty shoes shrank back, Liszt's face became even redder.

Wu Xiaolu looked at the unusual behavior of the two of them, and said nothing, "Let's go."

Bai Que's house followed. His house was not luxurious, just an ordinary one-story red brick and cement house.Shan Zeng and Wu Xiaolu walked around the house without seeing anything unusual, so they went in, but Liszt crouched in a daze by the grass outside the door with his face on his hands.Seeing that Liszt didn't go in, Ye Qianrong stood beside him and asked, "Why doesn't Director Li go in and have a look?"

The reason why Liszt didn't go in was that he thought it was too embarrassing to be with Shan Zengdai, but he couldn't tell Lao Ye like this, so he had to answer: "I'm clumsy, going in will ruin the scene, let's stay outside .”

Ye Qianrong nodded in agreement: "Well, Director Li is self-aware."

Liszt: ...

Only then did Ye Qianrong realize that what he said just now was a bit wrong, so he changed his words: "I mean, Director Li, you are very thoughtful." These words were sincere.

Liszt: Get out, don't ask me how I feel.

Wu Xiaolu and Shan Zeng acted separately, and Wu Xiaolu searched Bai Que's bedroom for a long time but found nothing unusual.He walked to the antechamber of Shan Zeng's inspection and said to Shan Zeng: "I didn't find anything inside, did you find anything?"

Shan Zeng did find out that the concealment at this time was useless.If Shan Zeng had something to do with this case, he would not be ignorant of the clues that Shan Zeng could discover, and concealing the discovery would only expose himself.

Pointing to several teacups on the table, Shan Zeng said to Wu Xiaolu, "Go and smell."

Wu Xiaolu moved his nose to the rim of the cup and fanned his nose with his hand, "The smell of this tea is a bit strange."

Shan Zeng handed another cup of finished tea to Wu Xiaolu, "Smell this cup again."

Wu Xiaolu heard it and said, "It's strange, this cup smells like the fresh fragrance of tea leaves. But the two cups of tea don't look different in appearance."

Shan Zeng replied: "You are right, there is no difference between the two cups of tea, the difference is because the drinkers are different." After finishing speaking, carefully observe Wu Xiaolu's face.

"Is there such a thing?" Wu Xiaolu expressed surprise, and made no other expressions.

Shan Zeng put the cup back to its original place, and continued, "The one with the peculiar smell is stained with demonic energy."

"Demon energy?" Wu Xiaolu thought for a while and suddenly realized, "I know, I remember learning this before, it turns out that tea leaves can really absorb magic energy, and it turns out that the tea leaves that absorb magic energy have this kind of smell." Wu Xiaolu patted the order Zeng's shoulder, "Haha, I'm really ignorant, Captain Shan is amazing."
