Chapter 970 The Price of Going Too Far (Two Chapters in One)
"Meow... the rain outside has stopped." The little black cat squatted in front of the sliding door, looking out of the balcony through the transparent glass.
"Meow... it has rained for so long, and it finally stopped." said the little white cat next to him.
The super typhoon that raged in Rongcheng finally left. The two little wild cats who stayed at Zhou Tongtong's house to avoid the typhoon were eager to go outside.
In the bedroom, Zhou Tongtong, wearing a pink nightgown, was concentrating on doing her homework.
She had to finish the homework assigned by the teacher before the cartoon started, otherwise Xia Qing would not allow her to watch TV.
"Meow..."
There was a cat's meow outside the door, and then the bedroom door was pushed open.
The little black cat walked in front, followed closely by its little friend.
Zhou Tongtong stopped what she was doing when she heard the cat's meow. She put her pencil on the homework book and turned around to look at the door of the bedroom.
"Meow... Zhou Tongtong, the rain outside has stopped." said the little black cat.
"Are you leaving?" Zhou Tongtong was reluctant to let the two little wild cats go, and she wanted them to stay at home.
However, considering that the two little wild cats preferred to stay outside, she did not force them.
The three little guys walked out of the bedroom, and Xia Qing was busy in the kitchen.
She heard footsteps behind her and turned to look.
"Mom, Xiaobai and Xiaohei are leaving." Zhou Tongtong said.
"You are leaving so soon? Stay a little longer." Xia Qing tried to keep them.
"Meow..." The little white cat and the little black cat called out in unison.
Then Zhou Tongtong translated, "Mom, Xiaobai and Xiaohei said they have been bothering us for a long time, and they will come back to play when they are free."
Seeing that the two little wild cats were determined to leave, Xia Qing smiled and said.
"Since you have decided to leave, eat something before you go!"
"Meow..." The little black cat's eyes lit up when he heard that there was food, and he nodded quickly.
The little white cat on the side saw his friend's greedy look and glared at him with some disdain.
Xia Qing came to the microwave, picked up the two portions of fish soup that had been prepared long ago, and placed them in front of the little white cat and the little black cat.
"No one is competing with you, eat slowly, be careful of the fish bones getting stuck in your throat." Zhou Tongtong looked at the little black cat enjoying the fish soup, and was afraid that it would get stuck in its throat by the fish bones, so she quickly reminded it.
"Meow..." The little white cat raised its head and called out, then swung its tail and hit the little black cat.
The greedy little black cat immediately slowed down its eating speed, and when the fish soup was finished, the two little guys had bulging stomachs.
Zhou Tongtong wanted to let them digest the food before leaving, but after staying in Zhou Tongtong's house for so long, the two little wild cats wanted to go out and get some fresh air as soon as possible.
"Meow... Let's go." The little white cat said to Zhou Tongtong who was standing at the door.
"Be careful when you go down the stairs." Zhou Tongtong warned.
"Meow..." The little white cat and the little black cat nodded, and then they did not choose to take the elevator, but ran directly to the direction of the safety passage and ran downstairs along the stairs.
Zhou Tongtong hadn't finished her homework yet. After sending the two little wild cats away, she immediately returned to the bedroom to continue doing her homework.
"What a nice smell!"
"Mom, are you frying chicken legs?"
When the sun was about to set, Zhou Tongtong finally finished her homework. She packed her schoolbag, opened the bedroom door and walked out, and she immediately smelled a very tempting fragrance.
"Mom, are you frying chicken legs?" Zhou Tongtong trotted all the way to the kitchen door.
"Yeah." Xia Qing turned her head and looked at her daughter with an expectant expression on her face, and responded with a smile.
"This is cooked, you try it."
"Thank you, Mom."
Zhou Tongtong took the small bowl handed over by Xia Qing, reached out and grabbed the steaming fried chicken leg from the small bowl and took a bite.
"Hiss..."
Because the fried chicken leg was just out of the pan and was very hot, Zhou Tongtong was too anxious and got burned.
"It's very hot. Blow on it before you eat it."
"Huh..." Zhou Tongtong kept blowing air on the steaming fried chicken leg. When she felt it was a little cooler, she opened her mouth and took a bite. Her lips and teeth were immediately filled with the aroma of chicken, which made her squint her eyes happily.
After a while, the crispy fried chicken leg was eaten clean.
"Mom, I want more."
"Here."
Xia Qing put another fried chicken leg in her daughter's small bowl, and then she took a small bowl filled with many fried chicken legs and walked out of the kitchen.
"Mom, are you going to give fried chicken legs to Brother Lin Li?" Zhou Tongtong followed out with a small bowl and asked Xia Qing who was walking to the door.
"Yes." Xia Qing responded, told her daughter to sit down on the chair and eat slowly, then opened the door and walked out.
…………
The living room was quiet, with no one there.
The sunset outside the window shone into the living room, casting a bright red spot on the floor in front of the TV.
Suddenly, a figure in camouflage uniforms appeared out of thin air in the living room, just stepping on the bright red spots of light reflected on the floor by the setting sun.
"The weather has finally cleared up, and the wind has stopped..."
Lin Li came back from the mysterious island and was immediately attracted by the setting sun outside the window.
Yesterday's weather forecast told everyone that the typhoon would leave Rongcheng this evening, so it was not surprising that it was calm outside the window now.
Lin Li was busy in the spirit world today, and his clothes were all dirty.
He glanced at the setting sun outside the window for a few times, and immediately went back to the bedroom to get a change of clothes.
The bathroom was filled with steam, and after a while, Lin Li came out after taking a shower.
“Ding Dong.”
The doorbell rang, and Lin Li, who had just sat down on the sofa, stood up and walked to the door.
Xia Qing, who was wearing a black and white apron, was wearing a long and smooth hair bun, exuding a gentle temperament.
When she pressed the doorbell of her neighbor's house, the door in front of her opened in a few seconds. Seeing Lin Li at home, she smiled and said.
“Lin Li, this is the chicken leg I fried. Take it and try it.”
“This is too much!” Lin Li looked at the full pot of fried chicken legs and felt a little embarrassed to accept so many things from others.
“If you don’t eat it, Tongtong and I can’t finish it.”
“Okay, thank you.”
“You’re welcome.”
“Wait a moment, I’ll clear the pot for you…”
“Okay.” Xia Qing responded, and then waited at the door.
Lin Li carried the steaming fried chicken legs and walked quickly to the kitchen. After clearing the pot, he thought about it and took out a large bag of fresh fruits and vegetables.
Reciprocity is common sense, and these fruits and vegetables are Lin Li's return gift.
"Hey!" Xia Qing was very surprised to see Lin Li coming back with a large plastic bag filled with a lot of fresh fruits and vegetables.
"Take these things." Lin Li said with a smile.
"Where did you get so many fresh fruits and vegetables?" Xia Qing asked in confusion.
She went to the supermarket to buy before, but because of the typhoon, the logistics were not smooth, so there were not many kinds of fresh fruits and vegetables in the supermarket.
At this moment, Lin Li took out such a large bag of fresh fruits and vegetables, and any normal person would be curious.
"I met a vegetable farmer on the roadside before, and I bought all the vegetables because the price was cheap." Lin Li made up an excuse casually.
Xia Qing didn't think much about it, thanked Lin Li, and then went home.
"Gurgle..."
Lin Li returned to the restaurant, smelled the tempting aroma of fried chicken legs, and his stomach immediately made a sound.
He reached out and picked up a steaming fried chicken leg. After blowing on it for a few times, he took a bite and was immediately amazed by the crispy taste of the fried chicken leg.
"It's delicious."
"The fried chicken leg made by Xia Qing is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. It's not worse than the fried chicken leg made by Kaifeng Cuisine."
Fried chicken legs and fat house happy water are a perfect match. Neither is indispensable.
Lin Li put down the half-eaten fried chicken leg, opened the refrigerator, took out a large bottle of fat house happy water, and poured a full cup into the cup.
"Gudong."
After taking a big sip of iced fat house happy water, the refreshing feeling made Lin Li couldn't help but let out a happy cry.
Sitting down on the sofa in the living room, Lin Li turned on the TV and tuned to the news channel. While watching the beautiful news host broadcasting hot news, he happily wanted to use the fat house meal.
"This is...!"
Lin Li just took a bite of the fried chicken leg and was shocked by the content on TV.
Not long ago, when the typhoon had just stopped, there was a problem with the dam of a reservoir. The relevant departments immediately sought help from the Superpower Management Bureau.
After the investigators took action to remedy the situation, the reservoir with problems was temporarily stabilized and there was no risk of dam collapse.
The investigators who went to the reservoir were originally on duty around the floating mountain. Because they left, some people had an opportunity to take advantage of it.
Some daring guys actually took advantage of the absence of the investigators and flew to the floating mountain using single-person aircraft.
In the end, these people did climb the floating mountain as they wished and took a few photos.
They showed off in the circle of friends and some online platforms, attracting a lot of attention.
However, what happened afterwards made these daring guys regret it.
On the return trip, the single-person aircraft could not be started. The dozen people who climbed the floating mountain could not return to the ground, and finally had to call the relevant departments for help.
At this moment, the news was broadcasting the rescue process. More than a dozen daring guys all wore silver bracelets and returned to the ground in a helicopter.
"What a bunch of idiots. Fortunately, when something went wrong, they knew to call the relevant departments for help as soon as possible..."
This kind of dangerous behavior is not recommended. Lin Li looked at the group of idiots who were dejected in the picture, shook his head and complained.
"By the way, my phone is still on the mysterious island..."
With a thought in his mind, the phone on the mysterious island appeared next to Lin Li.
The signal was restored, and the phone rang several times in a row as usual.
"Ding Dong, Ding Dong, Ding Dong..."
Lin Li ate the remaining half of the fried chicken leg in his hand, then wiped his hands with a tissue and checked the messages received on his phone.
"Delete the spam text messages directly."
"Hey! I actually forgot about this. My memory is really bad."
When Lin Li went out in the morning, he accepted a task issued by the Superpower Management Bureau and planned to complete it after returning.
As a result, he was busy in the spirit world all day, and when he came back, he was attracted by the pot of fried chicken legs sent by Xia Qing and forgot about the task.
"Fortunately, there is still time."
Lin Li looked up at the clock on the wall and breathed a sigh of relief.
He quickly ate a few fried chicken legs, then drank a cup of iced fat house happy water on the coffee table, and then hurried out.
…………
After the typhoon, a lot of garbage was scattered on the small roads in the community.
Lin Li walked out of the corridor and saw the cleaners arranged by the property were cleaning the garbage on the ground.
According to the current cleaning speed, we won’t be able to finish the work today, and we will have to work another day tomorrow.
Lin Li passed by the green belt and subconsciously glanced at the big banyan tree not far away.
As expected, the little white cat and the little black cat were chasing and playing.
It was still freer outside. The two little guys came downstairs and became a little excited.
“Meow…”
The little white cat and the little black cat called to Lin Li and came to him in a few seconds.
“Are you hungry?” Lin Li asked.
“Meow…” The two little guys had just eaten the fish soup not long ago, and their stomachs were still a little full. Now they couldn’t eat anything at all, and they shook their heads quickly.
Lin Li, who was rushing to do the task, said, "I still have things to deal with, so I'm leaving first."
The little black cat looked at Lin Li's back and said curiously, "Meow... He is so anxious to leave, what do you think he is going to do?"
The little white cat shook his head, "Meow... I can't predict the future, how can I guess what he is going to do."
Lin Li came to the outside of the community, unlocked a shared bicycle on the roadside, put his feet into it, and rode the shared bicycle all the way.
Because the task location is very close to home, Lin Li rode the shared bicycle in less than ten minutes to reach the destination.
The criminals to be dealt with this time are a group of telecommunications fraudsters. According to the information, only the leader is a practitioner.
When Lin Li arrived at the place, he quickly found the security guard responsible for assistance.
"Mr. Lin, the group of telecommunications fraudsters are in this office building. They have booked the entire 25th floor as a studio." The captain of the security guards described the situation he learned.
"This location is not cheap. It seems that they have cheated a lot of money." Lin Li looked at the office building in front of him and sighed.
"According to preliminary statistics, there are more than 1,200 victims, and the amount involved is 150 million yuan." The captain of the security guards said.
"On average, each person was defrauded of more than 100,000 yuan. Once those guys are caught, can the victims' money be recovered?" Lin Li asked.
"It's difficult. If we can recover a quarter, we will be thankful." The captain of the security guards shook his head.
"Alas..." Lin Li sighed, "You can set up a cordon. I will go in and deal with them now."
Some security guards set up a cordon at the bottom of the building, while others followed Lin Li into the office building and prepared to set up cordons in some places in the building.
"Ding."
The elevator stopped on the 25th floor. After the door opened, Lin Li walked out.
This group of telecom fraudsters eat and live in the studio. Lin Li can clearly hear their laughter in the corridor.
"Dong Dong Dong."
There was a knock on the door, and the person inside the door shouted.
"Who is it?"
"Your takeaway has arrived."
"Wait a moment, I'll open the door for you."
