After meeting the beautiful owner Lou Jingjing, San Pang thought that all pet store owners would be such beauties. Unfortunately, we visited several stores in succession, but never saw another store owner as beautiful as Lou Jingjing.
In addition to this regret for the third fat man, the investigation about Xu Shaoyong has also reached a deadlock. We have almost visited the community near his home, but we have yet to find the pet store where Xu Shaoyong once bought pets.
I continued shopping until four or five o'clock in the afternoon. I looked at the last pet shop in front of me and said to San Pang: "San Pang, after visiting this store today, let's go back for now. Maybe Xu Shaoyong bought it elsewhere.
His wife may have remembered it wrong."
The third fat man took a breath and nodded.
Entering this last pet shop, as expected, the owner had no reaction to Xu Shaoyong's photo and said that he had never seen this person before. I didn't think he was lying, and I thought that he would get nothing today.
.
Thinking of this, I asked the shop owner if there were any other pet shops further away?
The shop owner was nice, he nodded and marked it on the map we brought.
At this moment, a customer entered the pet shop.
The customer probably just came in to look at pet supplies and didn't have any pets with him, so the shop owner just looked at him and continued to mark us.
But when the customer was looking at the pet supplies hanging on the wall, the cats and dogs in the store kept barking at him. When we came in just now, the cats and dogs were doing the same thing.
When I heard the barking of cats and dogs, my head suddenly pounded, as if I had thought of something vaguely.
The thoughts swirling in my mind were suddenly interrupted by the shop owner's cry: "Be quiet, don't scream!"
I raised my head and realized that it was because the cats and dogs were barking so loudly that the store owner couldn't help scolding them. Following the owner's voice, the pets in the store closed their mouths one after another.
After scolding the pets in the store, the store owner smiled at us and said, "Sorry, little animals like to bark when they see strangers."
The customer waved his hand and said it was okay, then picked up a dog chew and asked to pay.
At this moment, I suddenly slapped the countertop of the cashier counter, which startled the third fat man and the shop owner.
"Sijiu, what's wrong with you?" The third fat man looked at me puzzled.
I was about to speak and looked at the shopkeepers and customers around me, but I closed my mouth. Now was not the time to tell the third fat man about what I had just thought of.
So I turned to the shop owner and asked: "Shop owner, do the pets in the pet shop bark when they see strangers?"
The shop owner looked at me strangely and replied: "Most of them know how to do it. Unless they are trained pets, they will usually bark when they see strangers."
really!
Hearing the shop owner's answer, I patted my thigh, becoming more and more sure of my guess.
In fact, just now, an idea suddenly appeared in my mind, that is, the pet store where Xu Shaoyong bought his pets. I am afraid I already know which one it is. And why I know which store it is, it has to do with the pets in the store.
Reaction matters.
Thinking of this, I put away the map, made an excuse that I had something to do, and took San Pang away from the pet shop.
When I got back to the car, the third fat man asked me what happened just now. I had such a strange reaction?
I said: "Sanpang, I already know where Xu Shaoyong may have bought the pet!"
"What? Which pet shop is it? Have we been there before?"
"I've been there, and it's the one that impressed you the most..."
The third fat man suddenly opened his eyes and said: "Ah? You mean Miss Lou's pet shop? No, it's impossible! Didn't she say she had never seen Xu Shaoyong?"
"She lied..."
"But didn't you yourself say that she didn't lie?"
I shrugged: "No way, if Lou Jingjing is a fox demon, I'm afraid all my little tricks will be useless to her."
After hearing what I said, the third fat man looked a little solemn and said: "Lou Jingjing is a fox demon? Sijiu, what basis do you have for saying this?"
I thought about it and organized my words to explain to him: "Do you remember what the owner of the store just said? Cats and dogs in pet stores usually bark twice when they see strangers.
In fact, we visited so many pet shops today, and the situation inside was the same as what the shop owner said. Basically, the cats and dogs in every pet shop would bark at us once or twice after we entered, but only
There is a unique pet shop, and the pets there have been very quiet from beginning to end since we entered, unlike the pets in other stores. Don’t you think it’s strange?”
The third fat man thought for a moment and said, "That's true. The pets in Miss Lou's pet shop are indeed much quieter than other places. But just because of this, it doesn't mean that Miss Lou is a fox demon, right?"
"You are right. In fact, I am less than 40% sure of the conclusion that Miss Lou is a fox demon. However, I believe there is someone who can definitely see some clues."
As soon as I finished speaking, the third fat man guessed who I was talking about: "You mean Zhang Mo? Yes, that kid seems to be able to see the aura of monsters. If he comes here, he will indeed be able to see something.
Come."
After reaching a consensus with San Pang, I called Zhang Mo and asked him to come here as soon as possible.
When Zhang Mo answered the phone, I heard that Wang Jun seemed to be beside him. When Wang Jun heard that I seemed to have discovered something, he instructed us from the side to let Zhang Mo confirm the identity of Lou Jingjing, but he must not act rashly or act rashly.
.As soon as you discover anything, notify them immediately.
After agreeing to Wang Jun's words, Zhang Mo asked about the address where we would meet and immediately drove over.
The three of them met at the gate of the community where Xu Shaoyong lived. After hearing our description of the pet shop and Lou Jingjing, Zhang Mo said that it was hard for him to judge just by listening to what we told him, so he had better go and see it with his own eyes.
We’ll talk about it after the pet shop.
After hearing what Zhang Mo said, we immediately walked to the pet shop. However, when we were still across the road from the pet shop, Zhang Mo suddenly stopped and stared at the pet shop in the distance with a solemn expression.
After watching for a while, he immediately turned around and pulled us away.
Sanpang and I looked puzzled and wanted to ask him what was going on, but Zhang Mo didn't say a word. It wasn't until we returned to the gate of the community where Xu Shaoyong lived that he said to us: "Don't look, there must be something in the pet shop."
Question, I can see some demonic energy coming out of that store from a distance. You think the pets in that store behave a little weird. I’m afraid it’s because they’ve been exposed to the demonic aura for too long and have become spiritual.
"
After opening his mouth for a long time, the third fat man said with a mournful face: "Master Zhang, so, that Miss Lou is really a fox demon?"
Zhang Mo glanced at him and said: "How can I answer you without seeing it? No matter who the fox monster is, it must have been living in that pet shop recently. This is definitely true!"
After saying this, Zhang Mo stopped elaborating with us and immediately called Wang Jun.
Now that the location of the fox demon has been confirmed, the next thing to consider is how to subdue this fox demon.
The ability of the fox demon is very important. Zhang Mo himself is not sure about it, so he must summon everyone from the entire investigation department.
After a phone call, Zhang Mo asked us to wait here for Wang Jun and the others, saying that Wang Jun had just ordered the investigators in Yangcheng to rush to this community to meet up. He himself walked in the direction of Lou Jingjing's pet shop.
When we got back, I asked him what he wanted to do. Zhang Mo told us that before Wang Jun and others arrived, someone had to keep an eye on the place to prevent the fox demon from noticing our movements and escaping.
After watching Zhang Mo go away, San Pang and I waited eagerly at the gate of the community for Wang Jun and the others to arrive. Time passed minute by minute, and in the blink of an eye, more than an hour had passed, and it was almost over before our eyes.
Two hours later, just when I was about to ask the third fat man to call Wang Jun and the others to confirm how long it would take for them to arrive, several cars suddenly drove over in the distance.
