Animal Detective

Chapter 109 The Beauty is About to Become Popular
Shen Xin thought viciously that he should equip Tiger Stripe's vest with a stun gun.

The kind that can be remotely controlled.

If I see him slacking off, I'll give him a tap with an electric shock.

Shen Xin turned off the video.

There's no rush to punish him now; let him enjoy himself a little longer.

He's probably thinking right now that he's finally escaped his own "devil's den," and he's feeling quite smug.

Then we'll go and catch him when we get off work in the evening.

We need to bring Black Panther along, otherwise we might not be able to hold him down.

Then pack them up and send them directly to the shelter.

We're providing you with the best food and drinks, not so you can go out and pick up girls during work hours.

The two continued their visits in the afternoon.

When we met up around 5 p.m., we found that we had indeed come up empty-handed.

Neither of them felt discouraged.

For the police, the most common situation is that their investigations yield no results.

As the two walked toward the car, Ding Yuwei said, "Shen Xin, I thought about the case again this afternoon. Did you notice that Xiao Hong didn't have any defensive wounds?"

According to his wife Gao Liyun's testimony, Xiao Hong had a bad temper and once injured a deliveryman over demanding payment for freight. He was of average height, only 173 cm, but he had done manual labor before running freight and was considered to be quite strong.

“Normally, if someone is robbed and the perpetrator is part of a gang, they might give in if they feel they are at a disadvantage and can't beat them. But in this case, there was no trace of a second person at the scene.”

"If it was just a robbery by one person, given his personality and physique, I don't think he would have given in and let himself be manipulated just because the other party had a small knife. There's a certain probability that he would have resisted, but the autopsy showed that he didn't have many defensive wounds. Isn't that a bit unreasonable?"

Shen Xin considered Ding Yuwei's speculation for a moment, then said, "You mean the attack was rather sudden and doesn't fit the pattern of robbery?"

If they're robbing people on the road, it must be for money.

The consequences of murder are very serious.

Only if Xiao Hong resisted fiercely could there be a situation where, in the course of the fight, someone ruthlessly stabbed Xiao Hong to death.

The problem is that Xiao Hong doesn't have many defensive wounds.

There are only two possibilities: either the entire attack was very quick, and as soon as Xiao Hong resisted, the assailant immediately struck him deadly, swiftly and accurately stabbing him in the neck.

The second possibility is that the murderer was not necessarily after money, but rather intended to kill Xiao Hong, taking advantage of his unpreparedness to strike directly.

Ding Yuwei hurriedly said, "Yes, that's what I mean. Think about it, according to the investigation, Xiao Hong was carrying a total of more than 4,000 yuan in cash, plus a mobile phone. His Nokia, a second-hand one, could only be sold for a little over 1,000 yuan at most. That means the proceeds from the robbery were no more than 6,000 yuan."

"I'm not saying six thousand dollars isn't a lot. In 11, six thousand dollars was quite a lot."

"But with great profits come great risks. Knowing that the profits from robbing on national highways are limited, it's unbelievable that someone would treat human life so lightly and kill someone so decisively for such a small amount of money. So I still feel there are some problems."

Shen Xin knew about this phone.

After the incident, Sun Zhao spent a lot of time investigating the phone, checking all the known channels for selling stolen goods.

But ultimately nothing was found.

He believes the murderer went to a more distant place to dispose of the stolen goods, or perhaps he didn't dispose of them at all and simply disposed of them.

Shen Xin said, "Although the murderer acted decisively, there were traces of searching the driver's cab after killing Xiao Hong. Of course, this could be a disguise, and there is a possibility of a revenge killing, but Captain Sun also investigated all of Xiao Hong's social connections and did not find any suspicious individuals."

Although Xiao Hong has a fiery temper, his social relationships are relatively simple, and he doesn't have any suspects around him with such deep hatred that he would want to kill someone.

As he spoke, he arrived at his car.

"Let's think about it later," Shen Xin said, gesturing for Ding Yuwei to get into the car.

I took out my phone to check the locations of Da Mei and Black Panther.

"what?"

Da Mei and Black Panther continued to wander around the town, but Shen Xin was surprised to find that Tiger Stripe's location had appeared next to Da Mei and the others.

In other words, in the afternoon, Tiger Stripe took the initiative to go to find Da Mei.

Turn on the camera.

As expected, Da Mei led the way, Black Panther followed in the middle, and Tiger Stripe brought up the rear.

"When did he go there?" Ding Yuwei asked curiously.

Shen Xin retrieved the tiger stripe's movement trajectory.

He left Dongtou Village around 3 p.m.

First, he returned to the original route, back to the position where he had initially deviated from Da Mei's trajectory, and then began to move along Da Mei's trajectory.

Moreover, Shen Xin was somewhat surprised to find that the trail he left behind was simpler than that of Black Panther.

In other words, when encountering obstacles like walls, the black panther might have to circle around several times before finding the breathtaking scenery.

As for the tiger stripe, it can determine the direction immediately after circling around once at most.

That's not why he was tracking Black Panther.

For example, at one point, Da Mei climbed over a fence and entered a factory.

The black panther went to the left along the wall.

Tiger Stripe, however, went to the right, taking a different route.

He circled halfway around the other side and immediately sensed the presence of Da Mei.

This is enough to show that his sense of smell is superior to that of the black panther.

Moreover, Black Panther had started tracking early in the morning, while he, on the other hand, spent an entire day in scorching heat, with pedestrians everywhere and a lot of mixed smells interfering, before finally setting off to search around 3 p.m.

Almost 24 hours have passed.

Ding Yuwei looked at the video, then at Shen Xin, and said, "Shen Xin, he's already doing some work, maybe we shouldn't send him to the shelter."

Shen Xin gave a soft snort.

Tiger Stripes, for example, feels like one of those so-called geniuses in movies.

The master assigned a task. Black Panther was an honest man, and he completed the task diligently.

Tiger Stripe, on the other hand, had to take the opportunity to slack off and relax before easily completing the task.

Although both groups completed their tasks, the latter was clearly disorganized and undisciplined.

Forget about shelters.

However, we still need to find a way to correct Tiger Stripe's personality.

The two drove around and, using the GPS location, quickly found the two dogs and the cat.

When they arrived, the three animals didn't shy away from people at all. They lined up in a row, and their pace was almost identical, just like the packs of bullying wild cats in Tom and Jerry, as if they were about to do something bad.

The orderly queue, resembling a piece of performance art, prompted passersby to take out their phones to film it.

Shen Xin stopped the car on the side of the road, rolled down the window, and whistled.

Black Panther responded immediately and quickly ran over.

The tabby cat also rushed over and wagged its tail obediently at Shen Xin.

He probably thought Shen Xin didn't know he was out wandering around picking up girls.

Da Mei, however, turned her head to look at Shen Xin, but didn't come over.

"So beautiful!"

Shen Xin called out again.

Da Mei reluctantly ran over and jumped into the car through the window.

It jumped onto Shen Xin's lap and even meowed at him in dissatisfaction.

"Don't go."

Shen Xin heard her thoughts; she hadn't had enough fun yet.

"Go home now, you still have a child to take care of, come back tomorrow."

Mentioning the baby made Da Mei even more agitated, and she tried to jump out of the car window, but Shen Xin quickly caught her.

Ding Yuwei was about to get out of the car and open the door when, unexpectedly, Tiger Stripe came to the back door, stretched out its paws and pried at the door handle, and actually managed to open it.

Then he squeezed himself into the back seat of the car through the gap.

Ding Yuwei was stunned.

Passersby gasped in surprise.

"gone."

Shen Xin quickly told Ding Yuwei to leave.

Go back to the office to clock out.

I didn't run into Sun Zhao and Chen Chao, and I don't know where they went.

The situation at the facility has been relatively peaceful these past few days, with no serious incidents such as murders or other violent crimes.

After putting the black leopard and tiger back in their cages, Shen Xin drove home.

That evening, Shen Xin was drawing a topographical map of the Xiao Hong case when his phone vibrated.

It was a message from Zhang Qian.

The two have maintained contact.

The outcome for Zhang Jian's case is also out: he received a demerit, but was not removed from his police uniform.

But this incident also virtually eliminated any possibility of Zhang Jian advancing further in his career; he will likely remain at the police station until retirement.

"Shen Xin, is this Da Mei?"

Zhang Qian shared a short video link from Kuaishou.

Shen Xin turned on the video and suddenly sat up straight.

Isn't that the part where Da Mei trains Black Panther?

It must have been those two girls who filmed it and posted it on the short video platform.

The key point is that some talented person actually edited the video into a storyline.

Da Mei pushed the sausage in front of Black Panther first, but Black Panther looked at him arrogantly and didn't eat it.

Then Da Mei leaped up and slapped Black Panther.

The caption read: "What the hell are you looking at? Come out and fight me one-on-one!"

Then came the scene where Black Panther pounced on Da Mei, and Da Mei ran away as fast as she could.

The accompanying voiceover and the perfectly timed editing made it incredibly lifelike.

The key thing is that this video seems to have gone viral.

It has received 420,000 likes, over 20,000 comments, and hundreds of thousands of shares.

Shen Xin subconsciously clicked on the comments.

"This cat is so cheeky."

“You don’t know the whole story. The cat bought the sausage for the dog. I was there at the time.”

“They’re in cahoots. Don’t be fooled by how big Casillo is; he’s the one who got bullied.”

Even more incredibly, there was an animated GIF of two dogs and a cat moving forward in a single file.

With the filter added, it somehow managed to capture a bit of the mafia's atmosphere.

Seeing a large number of people in the comments section asking where the cat was and preparing to ambush her, Shen Xin couldn't help but feel embarrassed.

This girl is on the verge of becoming a sensation.
