Chapter 698 Is there something wrong with the head of the household? (Two chapters in one)

"call……"

The breeze blew on the street, and the lush branches and leaves of the tall and vigorous trees swayed gently, making a continuous rustling sound.

Under the big tree, in the cool shade, a man less than 1.6 meters tall with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks poked his head out from behind the tree trunk, staring at the black-clothed policeman who was getting further away in the distance.

"Um?"

The detective in black was very alert. He seemed to have noticed that someone was staring at him, so he immediately stopped and turned around to look at the location where the gaze was directed.

"Strange, why is there no one?"

I looked at the area in front of me and patrolled it for a few seconds, but I didn't find any suspicious people.

So, the black-clothed detective thought he had made a mistake, looked away, and continued to patrol ahead.

Not long after, the figure of the patrolling police officer in black disappeared.

And when he disappeared, the man with the sharp mouth and monkey cheeks who was hiding behind the big tree and didn't dare to breathe immediately exhaled.

"call……"

"Scared me."

"That detective is quite vigilant. If I react any slower, he will definitely find me and come over to question me."

The man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks took a few deep breaths to calm his pounding heart, and then he looked towards a very luxurious villa in the distance.

…………

In a dilapidated residential area, near the river, there is a small wooden house.

Standing not far from this small wooden house, you can vaguely hear many different sounds inside the small house.

"Brother, we have been successful recently, and there should be some reaction from the Yamen.

My idea is that we can't continue to take action now.

For the time being, take the money you got and leave Dongwu City, find a safe place to take shelter, and come back after this period of wind has passed."

"Boy, you are too cowardly! Although the Yamen side has already responded, based on my understanding of them, it will take some time for them to be fully mobilized.

We are still very safe now and there is no need to leave Dongwu City in a hurry and flee to other places for shelter."

"It's... it's better to be careful. If someone from the Yamen discovers where we are hiding, everyone will be in danger."

"We can't find it. We are a mixed bag here. People from the yamen want to find us, but they can't find us for a while."

Two different voices were chatting, and a figure came from a distance, stopped in front of the door of the small wooden house, raised his hand and knocked on the door.

"Dong dong dong..."

After the knock on the door, the sound in the room disappeared in an instant.

"It's me." The man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks shouted immediately when he saw that there was no sound at all in the room.

"It's Shouhou. He's back. Go and open the door for him."

"yes."

"Tap, step, step..." The sound of footsteps approached from far away and appeared at the door.

"Click." Pull out the bolt and open the door.

The man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks did not enter the room immediately after his companion opened the door.

Instead, he turned around and looked behind him to make sure no one was following him, and then walked into the room.

There were quite a few people in the room. Counting the man with the pointed mouth and monkey cheeks, there were nine people in total.

The middle-aged man sitting on the bed with his back against the wall is strong and rough-looking. He looks like a ruthless person who is not easy to mess with.

"Brother." The man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks shouted to the person sitting on the bed.

"Anything new?" asked the rough-looking middle-aged man sitting on the bed.

"According to my observations over the past few days, there is indeed only one woman in that family's home." The man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks reported.

"It's great to have only one woman at home." The rough-looking middle-aged man sitting on the bed immediately showed a happy smile after hearing his younger brother's report.

At this moment, a young man in his early thirties wearing gray linen clothes sitting on the bench spoke.

"In that place, have the number of police officers patrolling the streets increased?"

The man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks recalled the black-clothed policeman he saw before and answered.

"From what I saw, the number of police officers in that place has not increased, but their patrols have been much more frequent than usual..."

The young man in gray linen clothes sitting on the bench frowned immediately after hearing these words. Then he turned his head and looked at the figure sitting on the bed.

"The number of agents has not increased, so there is no big problem. As long as we are careful when we act, nothing will happen." The rough-looking middle-aged man sitting on the bed said with a smile.

He really wasn't worried at all that everyone would be caught quickly.

"Since the situation has changed a bit, I suggest we observe it for a few more days to make sure nothing goes wrong when we act." The young man in gray linen clothes sitting on the bench couldn't help but put forward a compromise opinion.

If the number of police officers in that place increases in the next few days, then he can convince everyone present to leave Dongwu City for the time being.

Although the rough-looking middle-aged man sitting on the bed was confident that he and his party would not be caught quickly, he had no reason to object to the compromise suggestion put forward by his younger brother.

"Okay, let Shouhou observe it for another two or three days. If the situation does not change much, we will attack that family at night."

No one present raised any objection, and the matter was settled.

At this time, someone said something curious.

"You can tell that the family is quite wealthy at first glance, but now there is only one woman looking after the house. This is the first time I have seen this."

"Yes! The families we worked on before, in addition to some servants who wash and cook, there are at least one or two guards who look after the house."

"If only one woman is left to look after the house, the head of that household may be a little out of his mind!"

Everyone was talking about it, and everyone reached a consensus in an instant about the fact that the head of the household was mentally abnormal.

…………

"Ah sneeze..."

Lin Li, who had just finished lunch, was about to get up and go to the cashier to pay, when he suddenly sneezed.

"Who is saying bad things about me behind my back?" Lin Li rubbed his nose and muttered in his heart.

Then, he walked towards the cashier, took out his mobile phone from his pocket, scanned the payment code on the desktop, and paid for lunch.

"That man has such a big appetite!"

"He is the most edible person I have ever seen..."

Lin Li walked out the door and could vaguely hear voices talking about him behind him. He was used to this kind of situation and didn't take it to heart.

After coming out of the restaurant, Lin Li crossed the road and walked into the community.

The original plan was to go home and clean up the bedroom after lunch.

However, the plan could not keep up with the change. Zhang Yuxi called and now he had to go to the other party's store to deliver the goods.

The jewelry store is quite a distance from the community, so you have to drive there.

Therefore, after Lin Li had lunch, he had to go back to the community to find his van.

"Zhang Yuxi invited me to dinner several times before, but I always refused because of something. When I go back to see her this time, I have to bring a gift."

Lin Li walked slowly into the community, thinking about what gift to give to his business partner.

"Meow……"

A familiar cat meow sounded in my ears.

Lin Li was thinking about what gift to give Zhang Yuxi when he heard a cat meowing and interrupted his thoughts.

Then he turned his head and looked towards the place where the cat meowed.

"It's you!" Lin Li looked at the little black cat coming to him and asked with a smile, "What do you want from me?"

"Meow..." The little black cat raised its head, looked at Lin Li, and meowed again.

"I don't understand what you said." Lin Li looked down at the little black cat and shook his head.

"Meow..." The little black cat thought seriously for a moment, then it squatted down, barked, and patted its belly with its little paws.

Lin Li looked at the little black cat's actions with a look of realization on his face, "Are you going to eat something?"

"Meow..." Seeing that Lin Li understood what he meant, the little black cat nodded immediately.

With a thought in his mind, a pack of ham sausage appeared out of thin air in Lin Li's hand.

"Meow..." The little black cat looked at the whole package of ham that appeared in Lin Li's hand, its big round eyes shining with excitement.

Lin Li peeled off two pieces of ham for the little black cat. Seeing that the little guy was eating with gusto, he reached out and touched the little black cat's furry little head.

"Meow..." The little black cat raised his head and glanced at Lin Li, then lowered his head to eat.

"By the way, why don't you see that little friend of yours! Where did it go?" Lin Li then remembered that the two little guys who were usually inseparable were missing one, and asked.

"Meow..." Hearing this, the little black cat raised a little paw and pointed to the crown of a pruned tree in the distance.

Lin Li looked in the direction pointed by the little black cat's raised paw. After careful observation, he found a white figure on the crown of the big tree.

It turned out that the little white cat was lying on a trunk of the big tree, looking at Lin Li and the little black cat through the gaps between the leaves.

"Come here!" Lin Li raised his left hand and waved to the little white cat.

The little white cat lying on a trunk of the big tree heard Lin Li calling him. He thought for a moment and quickly climbed down from the tree.

"What are you doing in the tree?" Lin Li looked at the little white cat running towards him and asked.

"Meow..." the little white cat replied, but unfortunately Lin Li didn't understand.

"You can have some too!" Lin Li waved the ham sausage in his hand.

"..." The little white cat remained silent, but Lin Li had already taken action and opened two ham sausages for the little guy.

"You guys eat! I have something to do, so I have to leave first..." After Lin Li finished feeding the two little wild cats, he put away the remaining ham and walked to the parking place.

After a while, there was a roar in the distance, followed by a silver-white van slowly approaching.

The little white cat and the little black cat quickly picked up the uneaten ham on the ground and ran to the side, then watched Lin Li's car leave.

"Meow... why did you take the initiative to go to him to ask for something to eat?" When Lin Li's car disappeared, the little white cat put the uneaten ham in his mouth on the grass, and then said to the little friends next to him

asked.

"Meow... I judge that if I don't take the initiative to find what he wants to eat, he will ignore us like before." The little black cat said.

"Meow...you are really thick-skinned." The little white cat said angrily.

"Meow... you have to be thick-skinned to have something to eat!" the little black cat said nonchalantly, then lowered his head and continued to eat ham.

"..."

The little white cat was speechless, because he thought the little black cat was right, and then he lowered his head.

…………

The afternoon sun was very strong, and there were many fewer pedestrians on the street than in the morning.

Although the weather is a bit hot now, and everyone chooses to avoid appearing on the streets during this period, some staff members cannot avoid the hot afternoon sun.

The red light turned on at the intersection ahead. Lin Li slowed down and stopped.

A sanitation worker who was cleaning the house was sitting under a big tree on the side of the road to rest.

The weather was hot, and the clothes on this young sanitation worker were soaked through.

I finished drinking the water I brought with me and I felt very thirsty and uncomfortable.

Lin Li frowned and looked at the sanitation workers not far away, and said to himself, "Isn't this uncle going to suffer from heatstroke?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the sanitation worker sitting on the side of the road with his back against the big tree fell sideways.

"Eh?!!!"

Lin Li was shocked when he saw this. He quickly opened the car door and got out of the car.

"Uncle, are you okay?"

"Do you need me to take you to the hospital?" Lin Li helped the fallen sanitation worker up and asked.

"I'm fine, I'm just a little dizzy. I'll be fine after just resting for a while." The sanitation worker shook his head and said there was nothing serious.

"Drink some water!" Lin Li had an idea in his mind and took out two bottles of mineral water from the mysterious island and handed them to him.

"Huh?" The sanitation worker's eyes widened when he saw two bottles of mineral water appearing out of thin air in Lin Li's hand.

"Hurry up and drink water! Judging from your appearance, if you don't drink water, you may suffer from heatstroke." Lin Li urged as he helped open a bottle of mineral water.

"Tons, tons, tons..." The sanitation worker, who was sweating a lot, drank a bottle of mineral water in one breath. His dehydrated body was hydrated, and his depressed mental outlook immediately changed.

Lin Li looked at the sanitation worker who had recovered a lot and felt relieved.

"Thank you, young man."

"You're welcome. In hot weather like this, if you run out of water, remember to replenish it immediately. Uncle, you have to be more careful in the future."

"Yeah." The sanitation worker nodded, and then he said he would transfer the money for the water to Lin Li.

"It's just two bottles of water, no need to give any more." Lin Li waved his hand.

"How embarrassing is this? You still have to pay..." the sanitation worker said.

Just as he was about to take out the money from his pocket and force it on Lin Li, he suddenly noticed that the kind-hearted young man in front of him had a very serious face and was staring behind him intently.
