Gu Chen walked through the passage of the bungalow and walked to a slightly larger wooden shed at the back. Next door was a brick house, which was Aunt Chen's kitchen. Speaking of the rescue station here, it was actually a
Every brick and tile is Aunt Chen’s hard work.
Aunt Chen has received many caring people here, including some big bosses and some caring private individuals who are willing to adopt stray dogs.
As long as someone comes over, Aunt Chen will basically cook it herself and convince everyone with her craftsmanship.
"Aunt Chen, put less chili pepper. Gu Chen doesn't like spicy food." Lu Weiwei helped in the kitchen and also gave a kind reminder.
"Haha, there are still young men who don't eat spicy food? Half of the population in Jiangnan City does."
Aunt Chen was cutting the ham on the chopping board, sharpening it with a knife blade, and throwing it into the pot together with the cucumber.
"Whoa!"
Instantly, oily smoke spread everywhere...
Here, there are also levels of cooking. Aunt Chen just deals with ordinary customers casually, but today the police helped her recover hundreds of thousands of arrears. This kind of kindness must not be too casual.
So, Aunt Chen took out all the stock in the refrigerator and prepared to cook a big meal here.
On the other hand, taking over such a task is a benefit for the police. Compared with some dirty work, being called by the leader to do such errands is because the leader intentionally takes care of him.
"Is that handsome guy still a trainee policeman? I think he talks like an old comrade." Aunt Chen rolled up a corner of her apron and wiped the sweat from her forehead.
"Gu Chen is very powerful. He is the star policeman of Furong Police Station." Lu Weiwei put the washed celery into the basin and poured the dirty water into a bucket.
Aunt Chen thinks about it too...
In this age where talented people emerge in large numbers, outstanding people will always be noticed.
To be praised by several old comrades at the Furong Police Station, he must be a somewhat capable person.
Outside, Bai Xiaolan, who was eating raw tomatoes, walked to the kitchen door and asked: "Aunt Chen, do you know that person outside the rescue station?"
"Who is he?" Aunt Chen asked casually while frying her signature green pepper shredded pork.
"A man driving a small truck has been at the door for a long time, but he didn't come in."
"boom!"
As soon as Bai Xiaolan finished speaking, Aunt Chen's hand slipped.
The iron pot hit the stove hard, and a lot of shredded green pepper and pork fell to the ground.
"Aunt Chen, are you okay?"
See the situation.
Lu Weiwei and Bai Xiaolan both rushed over to check Aunt Chen's injuries.
"It's okay. My hand slipped just now and I couldn't hold it firmly. It's okay." Aunt Chen looked at the green pepper and pork shreds on the ground solemnly.
"Let me help you clean up." Bai Xiaolan hurriedly found a broom.
"Don't throw these away, give them to the dogs."
"Yeah. I know."
After cooking the dish absentmindedly, Aunt Chen washed her hands, walked to the kitchen door to use them, and rubbed them on her apron.
He stared at the pickup truck for a while.
"Aunt Chen, why are you so distracted?" Lu Weiwei came over and smiled.
"Oh, I was looking to see what other people were doing. There are too many stray dogs here, and some of them have bad tempers. I'm afraid they will get hurt."
"No way? I think your management here is pretty good." Lu Weiwei smiled sweetly and said: "I heard from Lao Wang that the stray dogs just brought in will be isolated for a month to allow them to adapt to the environment here as soon as possible.
The environment needs to wait until these stray dogs have lowered their guard and established a sense of trust in humans before they can be released."
"Haha." Aunt Chen smiled: "You know this too."
"Excellent in everything." Lu Weiwei said with a smile.
Lunch officially begins.
Lu Weiwei and Bai Xiaolan helped move the table and placed it in the yard outside the kitchen.
A table full of various drinks...
Several puppies and cubs got in through the gaps in the grid, wagging their tails and sitting obediently, waiting for charity from their owners.
Gu Chen, Officer Wang and Wu Jun, led by volunteer Xu Lu, arrived at the dining place.
"Where did you go?" Lu Weiwei was curious.
"Sister Xu took us to visit the kennel, and there were a few big dogs inside." Gu Chen also took the lead to find a stool to sit down, sniffed the dishes on the table, and said, "It smells so good."
"But why is Officer Wang so sad?" Bai Xiaolan was also curious. Officer Wang didn't seem happy.
Wu Jun also said with a smirk on his face: "A brown teddy hugs my leg, and then...then there is room for imagination."
When it comes to Teddy, everyone understands it instantly, and then everyone starts to act stupid.
As a result, Lu Weiwei still couldn't hold back her breath and burst out laughing: "Teddy...Old Wang...hahahaha!"
"Lu Weiwei." Officer Wang glared at her, and the situation was very awkward.
Lunch officially started. Aunt Chen’s cooking was very good and everyone ate with gusto.
Let's chat together and think about the future.
Bai Xiaolan's press release is available.
Wu Qi's video has also been filmed.
The tasks of Lu Weiwei, Officer Wang and Gu Chen were also successfully completed.
Everyone also discussed the possibility of establishing more stray animal rescue centers at the dinner table.
Bai Xiaolan worked hard to copy the transcripts, striving to make more and more accurate appeals in the news.
Looking at the sky, Aunt Chen said with a smile: "Looking at the weather, it will rain again in the afternoon, and there are still some things drying on the mountain. I have to go there first."
"Aunt Chen, please sit down. Your legs and feet are inconvenient, so I'd better help you pick it up." Xu Lu immediately put down her chopsticks and prepared to help.
"No need." Aunt Chen waved her hand and refused: "You don't know where it is, so just sit here and have a good meal. I can do it and I'll be back soon."
"Do you really don't want to help?" Gu Chen asked.
Aunt Chen smiled and said, "Although I have sprained feet, I'm not lame. You guys are eating and drinking well here. I'll come as soon as I go."
After appeasing everyone to sit down and have a good meal, Aunt Chen found a few snakeskin bags from the kitchen, limped open the backyard door, and went up the mountain.
"Aunt Chen is quite a strong person. She used to make a few million by speculating in real estate. Later, she partnered with others to start a business. As a result, she lost all her money. Therefore, she divorced her husband and has been living alone till now."
Seeing Aunt Chen's absence, Xu Lu couldn't help but start gossiping.
"No wonder Aunt Chen always looks down on life, but she was once a king?" Lu Weiwei was filled with admiration when she heard this.
"Then what happened next? Why did you become the director of the rescue station? It was quite expensive." Gu Chen was also very curious about this.
You must know that having the perseverance to do charity and taking in stray dogs as a career is not something that ordinary people can afford.
Take the Jiangnan City Stray Dog Rescue Center as an example. There are more than 300 dogs, which means more than 300 mouths every day. This is a huge expense.
In addition, a steady stream of stray dogs are brought in every day, and the number of people who are really willing to adopt them is very few.
Therefore, rescue stations are actually operating at severe overload, and ordinary people cannot bear such pressure.
"What will happen next? Let's just live with it." Xu Lu put shredded green pepper and pork in her mouth.
At this time, there was another fierce dog barking outside the door.
A middle-aged man wearing a somewhat faded cowboy hat stood at the door and called several times.
Xu Lu immediately put down her chopsticks, raised her hands and said, "Come on, come on."
Then he ran towards the door.
Half an hour later, Aunt Chen walked to the kitchen carrying two small bags of things.
When Gu Chen saw this, he quickly went to help: "Aunt Chen, let me do it."
"No, this thing isn't heavy." Aunt Chen readily refused and put it into a storage tank, pressing it with a wooden cover.
"Let's go eat." Aunt Chen showed an indifferent smile on her face.
When we came to the yard, everyone was chatting and chatting. Finally, a few little dogs waited for the rich bones and lay aside to enjoy the food obediently.
At this time Xu Lu also came over and took out a receipt and handed it to Aunt Chen: "The three stray dogs sent from the urban area had one leg crushed by a vehicle and were simply handled by volunteers from the urban area.
After a while, there was another one whose fur was burned by a child with fire, and some medicine was applied on it, and another one may not be able to see clearly and has no eyes at all..."
Xu Lu reported the situation seriously.
Gu Chen could also hear some information from it.
It turned out that they were volunteers from the urban area who helped rescue a few disabled stray dogs, and then asked the truck driver who was running here to bring them over and paid some freight.
Xu Lu just went to hand over...
"Please help arrange it, put it in a cage in the isolation area, and give it some water and food."
Looking at the leftovers on the table, Aunt Chen said: "Just pack some of these things on the table and take them over. Be careful not to get bitten by them. After all, these stray dogs have been abused by humans, and there may be some
Revenge."
"I know, it's not my first day doing this." Xu Lu smiled, started to pick up an empty plate, and put some leftover vegetables and bones into the plate.
"Officer Gu." Aunt Chen turned to look at Gu Chen: "My foot was fine just now, but now it starts to hurt again. It may be that the old disease has relapsed. Can I take your car to the hospital in the city later?
?”
"Aunt Chen, I didn't tell you that you shouldn't have gone to the mountain to collect things by yourself just now." Gu Chen also blamed himself.
But thinking back, I don't know where the things Aunt Chen posted are, so it would be in vain to go there.
"Don't talk about it. Anyway, I have old bones. Last time, the doctor said that I had bone hyperplasia." Aunt Chen also smiled and couldn't help but laugh at herself.
"No problem, just follow us to the hospital later." Lu Weiwei said happily.
Aunt Chen turned to Xu Lu and said a few words: "Xiao Xu, I'm sorry to bother you about the rescue station here this afternoon. There were originally two workers, but because you came here to do volunteer work today, I hurriedly gave them to them.
Having a holiday will save them from complaining every day."
Xu Lu took Aunt Chen's hand and patted it a few times: "Don't worry, Aunt Chen, I don't have to go to work today. I can help here until five o'clock in the afternoon, and then take the shuttle bus home."
"Then thank you so much. We have a good person like you in our rescue organization. I thank you on behalf of these stray dogs."
The two exchanged pleasantries for a while, and Lu Weiwei was so moved that she wished she could stay and help.
After helping clear away the dishes, Officer Wang drove his car and prepared to take Aunt Chen to Jiangnan Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital.
Due to the sudden violent storm in the afternoon and the poor visibility on the road, Officer Wang drove at a slow speed.
"Sorry, if you're not in a hurry, you might have to go slower," Officer Wang said.
"The weather has been bad these past few days. There are always lightning and thunder in the afternoon. I don't blame you." Aunt Chen was not in a hurry. She just went to check for a leg injury. It was not a major emergency, so she was not in a hurry.
"The weather won't be like this the day after tomorrow." Gu Chen checked the weather on his phone and made a manual forecast.
The vehicle was at a red light intersection at the edge of the city. Wu Jun and Bai Xiaolan greeted Gu Chen and others from the left side of the road, then turned and left.
Officer Wang, on the other hand, drove straight ahead and took Aunt Chen to the door of the hospital.
If Aunt Chen hadn't repeatedly refused, several people would have helped her register, and they were extremely enthusiastic.
Before leaving, Officer Wang specially handed over the five hundred yuan that everyone had collected to Aunt Chen. It was ostensibly used for meal expenses, but in fact it was also used to subsidize dog food.
There were high water and traffic jams all the way, and it was already four o'clock in the afternoon when we returned to Furong Police Station.
In the lobby of the office building, Mr. Xi was talking to someone.
Seeing the three people walking into the office building, they couldn't help but say hello: "Old Wang, how did you go with the money delivery? Is the mission going well?"
Officer Wang stepped forward and smiled and said: "What's wrong with this kind of welfare mission? When we do things, the people are relieved, the reporters are happy, everything is OK, it's that simple."
Just as he was about to turn around and leave, after thinking about it, Officer Wang patted Wu Meixi on the shoulder again and said, "If you need any help in the future, our three groups will definitely cooperate. After all, we were all old partners before, right."
Wu Meixi has been waiting for this sentence for a long time...
After all, Lao Wang is still Lao Wang, and everything is good except for being short-sighted.
"Okay, I appreciate your kindness." Wu Meixi was as calm as water on the surface, but she was very excited in her heart.
A few people exchanged brief greetings and prepared to go about their own business.
In the hall, several little boys were running around, and the parents who were doing business shouted loudly: "If you don't obey me, I will ask the police to lock you up!"
Then a little boy who had been naughty just now suddenly started crying with his mouth curled up. He rushed over and beat Officer Wang hard twice, and then quickly hid in the toilet.
Officer Wang:???
"What's going on? I don't think I did anything, right?"
Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei stood aside, holding back laughter and pretending not to see anything.
The matriarch ran over and said sheepishly: "Sorry, comrade police, the child is too naughty, please don't mind."
"Do you mind if I talk to a child?" Officer Wang patted the sticky little fingerprints on his butt and said helplessly: "If this child grows older, I will consider him assaulting the police."
"Haha, you are really good at talking. I will deal with him later." The matriarch nodded and apologized, then ran to the men's room...
"Let's go." Officer Wang twisted his neck to ask Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei to follow, but before they even stepped onto the stairs, the phone rang.
"Hello? What? I'm not at the stray dog rescue center now, I'm in the lobby of our police station, huh? Really or not? I just came over there? You kid didn't kid me, did you?"
Looking at Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei behind him with complicated eyes, Officer Wang said "hmm" and hung up the phone.
"What's wrong, Senior Brother Wang?" Gu Chen looked at him inexplicably.
"Something happened, a life was lost at the stray dog rescue center."
"What the hell?" Lu Weiwei looked at Officer Wang in disbelief and said, "What's going on? We were over there just now, why did something happen when we came back?"
"I can't explain clearly now." Officer Wang put his left hand on his waist and scratched the back of his head with his right hand. He was extremely depressed. Then he pointed at Gu Chen and said, "Well, Gu Chen, please contact Forensic Doctor Liu of the Technical Department immediately and take care of him."
Tell them the address and ask them to come with us."
"Okay, I'll make a call right away." Gu Chen quickly took out his cell phone and started dialing Dr. Liu's number.
Officer Wang looked at Lu Weiwei, and before he could speak, Lu Weiwei immediately said: "I...I'll drive."
It’s time to go to the Jiangnan City Stray Dog Rescue Center again...
Different from the heavy rain when we came back, now the hot sun is shining and it is extremely muggy.
There were very few vehicles on the road. Lu Weiwei drove very fast, honking her horn all the way to clear the way, and vehicles on both sides gave way.
When we arrived at the scene, it was already 5:04 pm.
There were many residents standing nearby, whispering to each other from time to time, and when they saw the police car approaching, they all moved aside.
"The police are coming." A little girl about ten years old shouted, and then ran away with several little boys.
Gu Chen got out of the car and closed the door, put the police hat on his head, turned on the law enforcement recorder first, and stepped forward to ask about the situation.
"Who reported the crime here?"
"Comrade policeman, it was a volunteer at the rescue station who reported the case." said an elderly man.
Gu Chen was suddenly stunned and looked back at Officer Wang and Lu Weiwei behind him.
"The volunteer at the rescue station is not Xu Lu, right? She is the only one here in the afternoon." Lu Weiwei said.
Officer Wang frowned and looked around. Forensic Doctor Liu's car hadn't arrived yet, so he had to ask the old man: "Where is the reporter now? Can you take me there?"
"Okay." The old man nodded and agreed readily.
Then he led a few people to the foot of the mountain.
The stray dog rescue center next door was still very noisy, but no one was affected by it.
Under a big tree, Xu Lu was sitting there, her eyes blurred, as if she were a frightened bird.
Compared with the enthusiasm at noon, it is completely different.
"Sister Xu? What's wrong with you?" Gu Chen quickly ran a few steps and squatted in front of her.
"Comrade police, this woman reported that there was a dead person on the mountain, and then came to the neighborhood to seek help from us," said a middle-aged man.
Lu Weiwei frowned slightly and said, "Is there a dead person on the mountain?"
"This is still fake. Many of us have seen it. In order to protect the scene, I asked everyone not to go there and just wait for your police to come." The old man who just led the way obviously understands some case handling procedures.
At this time, Forensic Doctor Liu's vehicle also drove into the small road and parked next to Officer Wang's vehicle...
