Chapter 296: Over the top
Huangfu Miaomiao quickly crawled over, trying to find a crack to get into the office.
But the outer window was sealed too well, and she couldn't find a gap after searching for a long time. Fortunately, the curtains in the office were not completely closed, so she could see a little bit by sticking them to the glass.
She could see Fan Ze's broad back and half of Bai Lu's body. Fan Ze was standing and Bai Lu was sitting on a sofa.
The two were talking in low voices in the office.
Huangfu Miaomiao leaned against the glass window and heard Fan Ze say, "I looked in the mirror while washing my face just now and found that I had a scratch on my finger, but I don't remember where I got it..."
Bai Lu stood up from the sofa, and her light gauze skirt passed in front of Huangfu Miaomiao and disappeared from her sight.
Huangfu Miaomiao heard her say, "Be more careful next time. Although it is a minor injury, it will become more and more serious if you leave it alone."
Then Huangfu Miaomiao heard the sound of a drawer opening and closing, and Bai Lu came back with a Band-Aid in her hand.
"Use a band-aid first. If the wound gets bigger, go to the medical department." Bai Lu put a band-aid on Fan Ze and said softly, "Okay, go back and rest."
Fan Ze was silent for a while and said, "You should also go to bed early."
Huangfu Miaomiao thought that these two people were too corny. They were acting so fussy over such a minor injury. They were nothing like Feng Ling. When Feng Ling was fighting with the Queen Mother of the West, half of his body was torn apart, but he didn't even cry out in pain.
Huangfu Miaomiao despised Bai Lu and Fan Ze's behavior very much. She observed from outside the window for a while, and when she saw Fan Ze leave the office, she quickly climbed back to her room on the fifth floor.
When Feng Ling saw her come back, he quickly asked her if she had discovered anything.
Huangfu Miaomiao snorted disdainfully and said, "This special attack captain named Fan Ze is in a relationship with Bai Lu. He didn't go to the medical department, but ran to the seventh floor to seek comfort from Bai Lu."
Feng Ling opened his eyes wide in surprise.
She never expected that Huangfu Miaomiao would bring her such an answer.
"...Are you sure?" Feng Ling looked Huangfu Miaomiao up and down in disbelief. "Do you know what it means to be in love?"
"I know! I often see short videos of people in love. It's obvious that those two people are in love!" Huangfu Miaomiao raised her head and said confidently, "Fan Ze's little finger was injured, and Bai Lu personally used a band-aid to treat his wound. The two of them were so affectionate. If this isn't love, what is it?"
Feng Ling touched his chin and said thoughtfully: "If you say so, it does seem like a romantic relationship..."
She felt something was wrong again and stared at Huangfu Miaomiao suspiciously, "How did you watch the short video? Does a children's phone watch have this function?"
Huangfu Miaomiao's face turned slightly red, and her eyes began to glance left and right, her panic was self-evident.
Feng Ling asked again: "Where did you get the phone?"
"I...I borrowed it..." Huangfu Miaomiao stammered.
"Who did you borrow it from?" Feng Ling blinked and suddenly realized, "Did you borrow the phone from Li Qing?"
Huangfu Miaomiao lowered her head and replied in a muffled voice: "I have already returned it to him..."
"Of course I have to pay it back, otherwise I won't be able to contact the Taoist priest." Feng Ling shook his head and sighed, "A little alien species is actually addicted to short videos."
Huangfu Miaomiao curled her lips and muttered softly: "He uses my tablet, and I use his phone."
——In order to make it easier for Li Qing to search for information online, Feng Ling gave Li Qing the tablet computer that Huangfu Miaomiao used to watch cartoons.
"What's there to fight about for a tablet? I'll buy you another one." Feng Ling said casually.
"I don't want a new one. I just want to use the one you gave me before." Huangfu Miaomiao looked aggrieved.
Feng Ling laughed, "Then buy a new one for Li Qing and give you the old one. Don't regret it later. The new one will definitely be better than the old one and have more functions."
"I just want the old one." Huangfu Miaomiao pursed her lips, very persistent.
Feng Ling nodded, "Okay, let's go buy it tomorrow." Huangfu Miaomiao smiled and climbed back to bed. After lying down, she felt uneasy again and sat up to ask Feng Ling, "Are you really going to buy it tomorrow? Don't we need to investigate the case?"
Feng Ling looked at the information on the table and sighed.
"I can't find anything. It's beyond the scope."
…………
……
The next day, Feng Ling took Huangfu Miaomiao out shopping and sent the address of Maple Leaf Lake to Xu Yiming.
Xu Yiming called soon, his voice full of excitement: "Feng Ling, we will be there in two hours!"
"That's pretty fast. When did we set off?" Feng Ling asked.
"We set off in the middle of the night. Xiao Cao and I took turns driving. We only took a break once in between, so we arrived a little earlier than expected." Xu Yiming replied.
Feng Ling said as she was shopping, "Thank you for your hard work. I will go get a driver's license to drive a large truck, so I don't have to bother you every time. Did you help me send someone over this time affect your interview?"
She remembered that Xu Yiming was going to participate in the selection of inspectors.
"The process is not that fast. Lao Su gave me some special training and asked me to improve my physical fitness so that I can adapt faster when I enter the inspector training camp... By the way, do you want me to stay in Jingnan City for a few days? What if you need a car and don't have a driver?" Xu Yiming asked.
Feng Ling smiled and said, "Jingnan City is so big that I won't have trouble finding a driver. Just go back and prepare for the interview."
After finishing the phone call, Feng Ling looked at the time.
It would be almost lunch time in two hours. Xu Yiming and Cao Hongyi had driven hard all night, so she had to treat them to a meal, and Maple Leaf Lake also had to be cleaned up a bit.
Without Su Yuqing around, she would have to take care of these trivial chores.
Feng Ling no longer took the time to choose and asked the clerk to take the latest tablet computer directly, then paid and left.
After leaving the mall, she rented a pickup truck to buy daily necessities and also bought a lawn mower.
The buildings on the Maple Leaf Lake side have been abandoned for too long and are overgrown with weeds and moss, making them uninhabitable. However, there are large tracts of grass along the lake, and as long as we spruce them up and set up a tent, the environment is still pretty good.
Feng Ling filled the container of the small truck to the brim, and then went to Maple Leaf Lake to set up her temporary base, set up a tent, set up a folding table, and placed an outdoor barbecue stove in a sheltered place...
She was spraying insect repellent around the campsite when the truck arrived. She turned and saw the truck slow down and stop by the lake. Her rented van looked like a toy in comparison.
"The environment here is nice!" Xu Yiming greeted with a smile, jumped out of the car and opened the door.
Ye Zheng slowly got out of the car and looked around with a scrutinizing look.
Then a large group of crows flew out of the carriage and scattered on the nearby treetops or eaves.
Cat Owl jumped out of the car and flapped its wings towards Feng Ling.
Now that it is bigger, it has to run for a while before it can fly, and it is difficult for it to take off from the spot.
Li Qing was the last one to come out, and he was as gentle and quiet as ever.
Feng Ling peeked into the truck compartment. The cat spider really made her proud by letting it come out a few days later. Sure enough, it was still in the spider silk cocoon.
Ye Zheng asked her: "I have been in Jingnan City for a day. Have you found anything?"
"So you also knew that I've only been here for a day?" Feng Ling said sarcastically, "We found three inspectors, Bai Lu, He Yuening, and He Xingluo."
Ye Zheng was slightly stunned, "...Bai Lu?"
