Chapter 168: Encounter and "Encounter" (Explosive Update!)
"Okay, record it, and then cut open the black bag and check it."
Captain She nodded immediately after hearing this, and then began to signal others to work.
Seeing this, Du Ruo also came over. He was actually quite curious about what was inside. After he killed the two men, the little guy inside had not been quiet since then.
This made Du Ruo a little curious. What kind of animal was so ferocious? And the reason why these two poachers killed people might also be related to this little guy.
As the black bag was cut open, a strong smell of blood mixed with stench wafted out of the bag.
When the bag was completely opened, everything inside was revealed to everyone.
"Hiss~ These two guys are really... No wonder they would kill to silence the witnesses."
When the bag was opened, Captain She couldn't help but take a breath. He often caught poachers and had some understanding of these things, but when he saw what was in the bag, even he couldn't help but want to curse.
"Call the wildlife protection department quickly. Take the cages and send these two lynxes to the hospital for treatment."
The most eye-catching things in the black bag are two lynxes, one big and one small. The smaller one seems to be anesthetized, and is still sleeping with its tongue sticking out.
The big one had its limbs tied up with cable ties and its mouth sealed. It must have worn off the anesthesia, as it was squirming in the cage and banging its head against the iron cage.
Even though it was covered in wounds, it did not stop. The cage was full of lynx's hair and blood. Only when the black cloth was cut open and the big lynx saw the small lynx, did it calm down a little, at least it stopped hitting the small lynx.
Upon seeing this, Captain She quickly arranged for someone to make a phone call and also asked someone to carry two cages to send the lynx out.
"This is a lynx, which is extremely ferocious and is also called a little tiger. Its fur is extremely valuable. Overseas, live lynxes are sold at sky-high prices. These lynxes deserve to be killed. They will do anything for money."
Captain She watched the two armed police officers carefully carrying two cages and running quickly outside, then he turned around and spoke to Du Ruo.
"Wouldn't it be too slow for them to run out like this? Do you want me to help? I'm very fast."
After hesitating for a moment, Du Ruo spoke. The two lynxes just now were quite pitiful.
"No, after we go out for a while, a mountain bike will come to pick them up, and the animal protection department will also bring medicine, so there will be no delay."
Captain She shook his head and told Du Ruo about the arrangement. Then he squatted beside the black cloth bag and began to check other things, while introducing them to Du Ruo:
"These are wild musk deer, that is, wild musk deer. There are eight of them here, which means that the other party has killed eight precious first-class protected animals."
Musk Du Ruo certainly knew that in the market, wild musk was priced by gram, and even if it was not processed, its value was far greater than the same weight of gold.
Next, Captain She introduced to Du Ruo the other things in the black bag, which were all animal furs or precious animal body parts.
After eating a large bag, one can imagine how unscrupulous these two people were in the mountains and how many protected animals they killed.
In fact, protecting animals is not just because we cherish them, but because they will have a great impact on the ecology. The damage to the ecology caused by such unscrupulous poaching is invisible but has far-reaching impacts.
Du Ruo didn't know what to say when he saw this, so he just pursed his lips and remained silent. Originally, he killed the two men because they were murderers.
To be honest, they had no grudge against him. When he was lying on the grass before, he also thought about whether what he did was right, but now it seems that neither of them was wronged.
Du Ruo is not an extreme animal protectionist, but he likes nature. He would not care if he saw clouded leopards eating squirrels or black bears eating musk deer, because it is a matter of ecology. However, the behavior of the two people in front of him is unacceptable to him.
"Master Du, how are you? Are you not hurt?"
Just when there was silence at the scene, Xing Anming's voice sounded from a distance. He came running over, panting, his clothes soaked with sweat. He saw Du Ruo from a distance and started asking questions.
"I'm fine. I'll just wait for you guys to come."
Du Ruo felt a little happy when she saw how nervous Xing Anming was. Xing Anming was a very easy person to get along with.
"That's good. Captain She, you've worked hard. The technical detectives are here. I'll arrange for them to work."
Xing Anming wiped his sweat and then began to hand over the work to Captain She.
"Execution team, I'm a little tired. Can I leave first? Or do I need to take a statement or something like that?"
Du Ruo was not in a good mood when he saw all the things in the big bag. When he saw Xing Anming start to get busy, he asked him. He said that he didn't plan to stay here with these people, as there was no point.
"Oh, yes. This is for you. A power bank. If you are tired, go back to Gangzi Village first. I will have someone take you back. Just don't go out for the next few days. It's best to keep your phone open. I will arrange a time after the transcript is taken."
Xing Anming reacted at this time, took out a power bank from his pocket and handed it to Du Ruo, and asked someone to send Du Ruo out.
Du Ruo did not refuse and followed the others out of the forest. However, when they passed by the place where they met the black bear, Du Ruo took a look. There was only a stain of blood and some animal remains. He thought that since there were so many people here, the black bear should have left.
By the time Du Ruo took the car back to the cabin in Gangzi Village, nearly two hours had passed.
Du Ruo was already a little tired, so he took his toiletries and went to the river to wash up. Then he told Xiang Yuanyuan about the situation and prepared to have a good sleep. Of course, he had downplayed the details when talking to Xiang Yuanyuan, focusing only on the black bear and the encounter with two poachers, and didn't say anything else afterwards.
After the video call was hung up, Du Ruo lay down on the bed and fell into a deep sleep.
When Du Ruo sleeps, his body makes a sound like a tiger snoring. The sound is not harsh and is quite appropriate in the small wooden house near the forest.
Du Ruo slept until almost noon the next day.
During this time, Uncle Xiong knew that Du Ruo had returned, so he brought some food over. However, when he heard Du Ruo snoring in the wooden house, he did not disturb her and just left with the food.
"Ah~ I had such a comfortable sleep!" Du Ruo got up from the wooden bed, stretched, and his bones began to crackle like firecrackers, and it took a while for the crackling to stop.
"Young man, wake up. You slept so soundly. You must be exhausted these days. Here, here is food. Come and eat something."
As soon as Du Ruo opened the wooden door, Uncle Xiong appeared with a large basin. Without any politeness, he handed the basin to Du Ruo.
"Thank you, Uncle Xiong. I'm not too tired, but it's uncomfortable to sleep in the mountains. I happened to have a good sleep yesterday."
Du Ruo didn't hesitate to take the bowl, picked up the chopsticks and started eating.
"Okay, you eat. I'll go back first. Put the bowl there when you're done. I'll come get it when I'm free."
Uncle Xiong looked at Du Ruo eating with relish, smiled, and went home.
"Uncle Xiong, take care."
Du Ruo shouted, and then continued to eat with big mouthfuls. By the way, he took out a bottle of tiger bone wine from his backpack and ate and drank happily.
After eating and drinking, Du Ruo took a rare chance to practice boxing outside the cabin.
Unable to think of where to go or what to do for a moment, Du Ruo simply took a cell phone and walked up the mountain.
After coming here, Du Ruo prefers to get closer to nature, mainly because when interacting with people, Du Ruo's mood always goes up and down, but in the mountains, Du Ruo is always in a peaceful state of mind.
"Shashasha~~"
Du Ruo started running fast after entering the forest. After about ten minutes, he suddenly heard a loud sound of rubbing bark. Du Ruo guessed that it must be a large animal rubbing against the tree. Du Ruo immediately became interested. As long as it was not a wild boar, Du Ruo wanted to communicate with it.
“Rustle, snap, snap!”
After walking forward for a while, the sound became louder, mixed with crisp clicking sounds, which made Du Ruo subconsciously slow down.
"..."
Du Ruo walked out from behind a tree and an animal appeared in front of him, but Du Ruo felt that the animal looked somewhat familiar.
There was a black bear standing under a tree opposite Du Ruo, standing upright, rubbing its back against the tree, as if scratching itself. The bear's paw was on a wooden stick, with which it was squeezing the thorny raw chestnuts. After squeezing out a chestnut, the black bear would pick it up and put it in its mouth, chewing it with a crunching sound. It seemed to be enjoying the meal so much.
"!!!"
At this time, the black bear's nose moved, and then it came back to its senses from eating chestnuts. It looked up and saw Du Ruo standing opposite it.
"Bata~"
In an instant, the black bear saw the raw chestnuts in his hand fall to the ground. Subconsciously, he stopped rubbing his back, squeezed his legs together, and then blocked his crotch with his two paws.
"Oh, it's you. Why are you here?"
Du Ruo originally just felt that the bear looked familiar, but when he saw the black bear's action, he immediately remembered that this was the bear that he had kicked in the crotch.
As Du Ruo spoke, he took two steps forward and looked up. It was a chestnut tree with a lot of chestnuts fallen on the ground. They must have been picked by the black bear who had just climbed up.
"roar~"
The black bear let out a roar, turned around, lay down, and wanted to leave, not even daring to roar too loudly.
"Hey, don't leave. Just keep eating. We can play some more when you're full. I promise I won't kick you in the crotch this time."
Du Ruo walked over, stopped Black Bear, and spoke in a negotiating tone.
Unexpectedly, the black bear curled up into a ball, protecting its chest and crotch, and then looked at Du Ruo pitifully, with an expression that said you should hit him if you wanted to.
This left Du Ruo speechless. She didn't expect the bear to be so cowardly and not even plan to resist.
……
Just when Du Ruo and Black Bear met by chance, Yellow Hair and White Hair also met by chance on the street in another place.
It’s not quite right to say that it was an encounter by chance. To be precise, it was the white-haired man who deliberately brought people over to block the yellow-haired man.
The yellow-haired man just came out of a western restaurant with two beauties. The yellow-haired man was hugging two beauties on both sides and flirting with the beauties as he walked.
"Hey, is this a new one? You know what, the women you found are all of high quality. Give them to me to play with."
Baimao came out from somewhere, followed by a few younger brothers.
The white-haired man spread his hands and shook his head as he spoke. When he came closer, he saw the two girls hugged by the yellow-haired man and he even reached out and touched the girls' faces.
"I say, are you done yet? I told you that I can't give you that demolition project."
When the yellow-haired man saw the white-haired man's actions, his face became a little gloomy, but he still restrained himself. After he finished speaking, he seemed to want to increase his persuasiveness and added:
"Besides, I am just a figurehead in this matter. I don't have the final say on whether the business can be transferred."
He said this as if he had given in.
