Chapter 140: The Little Mouse Is Unfortunately Hurt
Meng Xiaokai and Chen Ziqi were the rich second-generation types with more money than sense, as they called it.
To avoid suspicion, the two could only try their best to eat the wild rabbits.
When paying the bill after eating, Chen Ziqi asked Red Hair, “How much deposit do we need for the Oriental Sand Viper?”
“Start with five thousand yuan.” Red Hair happily handed over his payment code, “We’ll settle the difference later.”
“No problem.” Chen Ziqi transferred the money and patted Red Hair’s shoulder, “Contact us if you get any news.”
Red Hair nodded repeatedly, “Got it, what’s your phone number?”
Chen Ziqi gave him the number and left with Meng Xiaokai.
The small animals remained at the wild game shop to continue working.
In the back kitchen, a stout cook was smoking and shouting, “We’re running out of meat, go get some more.”
“Alright, I’m going.” Yellow Hair answered, grabbed his motorcycle key, and went out.
Little Sparrow Mary, standing on the windowsill, saw this and flew away after saying, “Who’s coming with me to follow this Yellow Hair?”
Yellow Hair rode his motorcycle into the mountains.
Little Sparrow Mary and her friend followed Yellow Hair, and saw him park his motorcycle in front of several tin houses.
Yellow Hair got off the motorcycle, put his hands in his pockets, and walked into one of the tin houses, “The shop is out of meat, I’m here to get some.”
“Coming right up.” someone answered.
Yellow Hair took out a pack of cigarettes and offered them, “Any good stuff come in today?”
The Bald Guy, who was slaughtering an animal, slammed his cleaver on the cutting board, took the cigarette with his blood-stained hand, and frowned, “Not yet, those police are too strict. They probably won’t dare to go out these days.”
“Damn it!” Yellow Hair cursed and took out his lighter to light the Bald Guy’s cigarette, “It’s messing with us making money!”
“You can say that again!” The Bald Guy took a hard drag of his cigarette.
Meanwhile, at the police station.
Everyone looked at the surveillance monitor with extremely solemn expressions.
Little Sparrow Mary had her friend keep an eye on this place while she flew to another tin house.
The miniature camera she was equipped with recorded everything inside the tin houses, shocking the police at the station.
The tin houses were filled with various cages, and inside the cages were all sorts of animals.
“Clouded Leopard?”
“Is that a Spoonbill?”
“And Black-bellied Sandgrouse! A National Second-Class Protected Animal!”
“I see an owl!”
“And a Swan!”
“Damn, they even have monkeys! These scum!”
“Most of them are National Second-Class Protected Animals.” Si Heng’s expression was stern, his thin lips moved slightly, “We can prepare for the arrest.”
He Lewei’s eyes lit up; his record could be decorated with another brilliant entry.
Si Heng dialed Meng Xiaokai’s number and informed them of the operation.
“Can I go with you guys?” Jiang Yuan asked.
Si Heng looked at her, gently placed his hand on her shoulder, and said warmly, “You stay here.”
“Understood.” Jiang Yuan nodded.
Si Heng led the Criminal Investigation Team to deploy.
Jiang Yuan continued to watch the surveillance monitor.
Time ticked by, and finally, a few familiar figures appeared on the surveillance screen.
Presumably, they hadn’t expected the police to show up, so the people selling wild game were scared and didn’t react for a moment.
By the time they wanted to resist and escape, it was too late.
Dark gun barrels were aimed at them.
Si Heng’s sharp gaze swept over everyone, and he said coldly, “Police, hands up!”
The Bald Guy raised his hands and slowly squatted down.
He stared at Si Heng, his eyes glancing towards the cleaver beside him.
He exchanged a look with his accomplice.
The Bald Man squatting beside Si Heng quietly got up and lunged.
The Bald Guy stood up with a whoosh, grabbed the cleaver, and roared, “I’ll chop you all to death!”
Si Heng raised his elbow to knock out the Bald Man and kicked the Bald Guy in the stomach.
The Bald Guy staggered back a few steps, brandishing the cleaver and charging forward again.
Si Heng’s gaze sharpened, and he shot the hand holding the cleaver.
“Clang—” The cleaver fell to the ground.
The Bald Guy clutched his wrist and wailed in pain, “My hand!”
He Lewei rushed over, kicked him in the head, and sneered, “Dare to bully my boss, you deserve a beating!”
On the other side, Meng Xiaokai and Chen Ziqi, who had left the wild game shop, returned the way they came.
Red Hair saw them and happily went to greet them, “Why are you two handsome guys back? Did you forget something?”
Before Meng Xiaokai and Chen Ziqi could answer, Red Hair’s phone rang.
He answered the call, and after hearing what was said, his expression changed drastically, and he cursed irritably, “Shit, how did they find out!”
After speaking, he turned to leave.
Meng Xiaokai reached out and grabbed his arm, “Buddy, where are you going?”
“Man, I don’t have time now. We can talk later.” Red Hair urgently broke free from his grasp.
Chen Ziqi smiled slightly, “But we’d like to chat with you a bit more.”
“Damn it, I said we’ll talk later!” Red Hair was getting anxious and raised his fist to punch Meng Xiaokai, “Don’t you understand plain language?”
Meng Xiaokai caught Red Hair’s fist, and Chen Ziqi took the opportunity to handcuff him with silver handcuffs.
Red Hair felt a coolness on his wrist, looked down, and his eyes widened suddenly.
He looked up, staring at the two in disbelief, “You guys are police?”
“Yes.” Meng Xiaokai nodded, “Can we have that chat now?”
As the words fell, a group of police officers in detective uniforms arrived and subdued all the illegal personnel in the wild game shop.
Meng Xiaokai looked around and found a little mouse in the corner that had unfortunately been hit by a chair.
He frowned and quickly walked over.
Meng Xiaokai righted the stool and looked at the little mouse, “Are you okay?”
The little mouse squeaked weakly, “It hurts so much!”
Meng Xiaokai didn’t understand what it was saying and extended his hand towards it, “Come with me first, I’ll call Jiang Yuan.”
The little mouse recognized the scent on Meng Xiaokai and slowly moved its body.
Seeing its slow movement, Meng Xiaokai inwardly thought something was wrong.
He reached out, gently picked it up, placed it in his palm, and walked quickly out of the wild game shop.
Meng Xiaokai got into the car, placed the little mouse in the storage compartment of the center console, took out his phone, and dialed Jiang Yuan’s number.
After the other side answered, he quickly said, “Jiang Yuan, a little mouse was injured by a stool, quickly ask it how it’s doing.”
Hearing this, Jiang Yuan’s expression became more solemn, “Okay, hand the phone to it.”
Meng Xiaokai turned on the speakerphone and placed the phone next to the little mouse.
“Are you injured?” Jiang Yuan asked worriedly, “Does it hurt?”
Little Mouse Jieli whimpered, “Yuan Yuan, it hurts so much, am I going to die?”
“Does it hurt a lot?” Jiang Yuan frowned, “I’ll come over to pick you up now.”
After speaking, she said to Meng Xiaokai, “Xiaokai, find a safe place for Jieli, I’ll come and take it to the doctor.”
“Okay.” Meng Xiaokai agreed, “I’ll leave it in the car, contact me when you’re here.”
