Chapter 289 Ivory Pendant
Lin Xiao and Lu Chengshen looked at each other.

He then frowned and looked down at the pendant in the box.

Nowadays, various ivory products are available, though they are not particularly unusual.

However, this is limited to various ornaments made using fossils of extinct mammoths.

Considering the behavior and experiences of the group of people in front of her, Lin Xiao did not think they would hand her a legal and compliant ivory product.

Lin Xiao didn't dwell on it any longer. She quickly closed the box, put the contents away, and turned to look at the two boys next to her.

"Let's put the red panda back where it was first, and we'll talk about the rest when we get back."

They circled around and returned to the foot of the mountain, unsurprisingly, it was nearly eleven o'clock.

Feng Cheng and Zheng Guangsheng stood guard at the village entrance, circling around countless times.

These two were so afraid that they would stick to them that they secretly slipped up the mountain without saying a word.

Feng Que followed him out shortly after. He saw one person sitting leisurely on the side and the other pacing back and forth on the roadside looking anxious. He couldn't help but frown.

"Not back yet?"

Feng Cheng glanced at the time, feeling extremely anxious.

"That's right, what time is it? They still haven't sent a single message."

On the contrary, Zheng Guangsheng sat on the rock next to him, holding a foxtail grass in his hand, swaying leisurely, looking very relaxed.

Seeing the two of them pacing around anxiously, he found it somewhat amusing and offered some words of comfort.

"What's the rush, you two? With Lu Bu and Gu Ming here, what are you worried about Sister Xiao encountering on the mountain?"

"Besides, don't you know about Sister Xiao's situation? What's there to worry about?"

Feng Cheng glanced at him with some disdain.

"Their injuries are their problem, my worrying about them is my own business, what does it have to do with you?"

"If you're not willing, can't you be in a hurry?"

After saying that, she glared at him fiercely, then quickly turned and walked ahead.

Looking at the tense atmosphere, Feng Que touched his nose somewhat guiltily, still unsure of what to do.

Just then, several blurry figures suddenly appeared on the road not far away.

Feng Que's eyes lit up, and he quickly spoke.

"Look, aren't they back?"

The two people next to them looked up excitedly, but when they saw that there were four or five people opposite them, they immediately became disappointed.

Zheng Guangsheng even glared at Feng Que with a foxtail grass dangling from his mouth, looking like a scoundrel.

"Can you look carefully before you speak? Look at the number of people, is it correct?"

Feng Cheng squinted and stared at the person in the distance for a long time, his eyes gradually brightening.

"It's them! It's them! They're finally back!"

Several people quickly went to meet them.

“We’re finally back. If we hadn’t come back, Orange would have gone into the mountains to look for you overnight.”

Feng Cheng smiled somewhat embarrassedly, "I was just worried about you guys getting into trouble in the mountains."

but……

The three people looked on with some curiosity. The two unfamiliar men, whose hands were tied, looked confused.

"Where did you dig those two people up the mountain from?"

"Found on the border," Lu Chengshen said coldly.

He didn't say anything more and quickly called out Zheng Guangsheng's name.

"You should contact the research center right now and tell them that the person who dumped the body into the mountains has been found."

found it?
The three people who had been there before froze, staring in shock at the two strangers beside them. Just these two?
Enraged, the two men shouted, "What are you looking at? Haven't you ever seen anyone before?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Ming shoved his shoulder hard, and the two of them staggered forward a step.

He turned his head angrily, his gaze fierce.

If his hands weren't bound by ropes at this moment, and if he weren't no match for the two people in front of him, he would definitely teach them a lesson.

Zheng Guangsheng glanced at him with amusement, his words carrying a hint of sarcasm.

"Today I finally understand what impotent rage really is."

He shook his head, completely ignoring the furious suspect behind him, and leisurely walked to the roadside to make a phone call.

Lin Xiao found it both funny and helpless.

Zheng Guangsheng really couldn't bear to suffer even the slightest grievance.

Meanwhile, in the research center on the other side, the person who received the call was in a daze and didn't react for a while.

The police haven't even released the autopsy results yet, and they've already caught the murderer?
It's only been a day... and the case's already closed?!

When the research center staff and police arrived, they immediately spotted the two strangers tied up in the crowd.

Is this... the murderer who killed those animals?
With a serious expression, Lu Chengshen stopped the head of the research center before explaining their experience on the mountain.

"These people all sneaked in from across the border. As for the animals they captured, they took all the valuable parts and sold them."

Even some animals that couldn't be sold ended up as their food.

Of course, there's no need to go into detail about this batch.

Moreover, Lu Chengshen even subconsciously wondered what the purpose of these two people's actions was.
Lin Xiao clearly noticed this as well, but she didn't say anything more.

The handover went very smoothly, and the institute staff and police expressed their deepest gratitude to them.

Lin Xiao hesitated for a long time before finally taking out the box she had specially put away.

"I would like to ask if the conservation center can authenticate ivory?"

"Ivory?" The person in charge who picked them up at first glance looked curiously at the pendant in Lin Xiao's hand, and it was indeed made of ivory.

only……

"Are you suspecting there's something wrong with the materials used to make this pendant?"

Lin Xiao just smiled and didn't say anything more.

Fortunately, the other party didn't ask any more questions. After all, the people standing in front of him were his superiors, so he didn't dare to say anything out of turn.

However, after looking at the ivory pendant in his hand for a while, he nodded.

"Okay, I'll take this pendant back first. I expect to get the results for you by tomorrow morning."

Lin Xiao put the pendant back in the box and handed it directly to the person in front of her.

Even after watching them leave, Lin Xiao's tightly furrowed brows remained unchanged.

Regardless of whether the ivory pendant was actually illegal or not?
But what was the other party's purpose in giving her this ivory pendant?
Or……

"Still thinking about that ivory pendant?"

The sudden sound interrupted Lin Xiao's train of thought.

She nodded thoughtfully. "He wasted two people just to get them to hand over this ivory pendant to me. Don't you find that a bit strange?"

“Wasting two people just to have them as surnames is really a bit odd.”

Lu Chengshen analyzed in a deep voice.

"In the past, when you sent gifts, it wasn't to curry favor, but to show off your power. What do you think the other party's motive was?"

Lin Xiao immediately frowned.

ivory?!
Showing off strength?!
If she remembers correctly, Yunnan Province does indeed have a dedicated elephant reserve, right?
Thank you so much for your votes, my little cuties! Love you all!
