Chapter 155: The strange smell
Anyway, until everyone left after having a good meal and a few drinks, Qiu Jiang still didn't understand whether their team was satisfied or not.
But one thing is certain, that is, I am so busy at work that I have no chance to think about anything else.
Fortunately, after three days of busy work, the happy weekend finally arrived.
Each of the twelve people involved in the Binhe Road case received a ticket. The extra tickets were naturally given to other colleagues who were not involved in the case. They drew lots to decide who would get the remaining three tickets.
In the end, Ms. Wang Meilin, Ms. Liu Shuhui and Ms. Lu Xue successfully won the tickets thanks to their excellent luck.
There were only a dozen women in their team, but despite such a huge difference in odds, not a single man got a ticket, which made many male colleagues in the office exclaim in disbelief.
But no matter how incredible it was, they knew that the notes were placed in front of them, and there was absolutely no possibility of cheating.
If I have to blame someone, I can only blame my bad luck.
I won’t say anything more, let’s wait for next time.
They sighed and went back to work.
Seeing that the candidates had been decided, Ji Mingcheng informed the meeting place before leaving get off work on Friday. The next day, two large vans and a large jeep sped on the road to Elihua City.
The distance between the two sides is actually not far, only about 30 kilometers, and it takes more than half an hour to get there.
But on the way, everyone was not idle, eating and laughing, and the atmosphere was very much like a spring outing.
"Look, how beautiful it is."
Wang Meilin pointed outside, and soon everyone followed her to watch the beautiful scenery outside.
We were already close to the seaside, and the vast expanse of red sand was spectacular. Looking into the distance, we could see many seabirds circling and flying low over the endless red, which looked like a color-coordinated ink painting.
Very beautiful.
They fully appreciate the beautiful scenery and enjoy the rare quiet time after busy work.
Before arriving at the resort, I was already immersed in the beautiful scenery generously bestowed by nature, and I was even more fascinated when I arrived at the resort.
Because their tickets included all activities but were only valid for one day, everyone went their separate ways and agreed to meet at noon.
Qiu Jiang and her three sisters chose to go to the reed marsh to feed the water birds first.
This is the season when reeds grow rapidly. Everyone holds bread and food and "sips" to call the lovely water birds.
Fortunately, the little cuties are real foodies and are not shy at all. They don't mind the sound of them calling them dogs. They fly happily around them, swoop down quickly as soon as they make a look, grab the food, and then quickly flap their wings, raise their bodies, and fly away without a trace of nostalgia.
But even so, they love these little elves very much, and they will be very happy as long as they are willing to come.
"Here it comes again."
"Eat mine, have another bite, Baoer."
Qiu Jiang opened her arms and finally shook over several of them, some of which even stayed on her arms for a short while. However, the sudden weight was too much to bear.
"Ouch, this is heavy."
She complained cheerfully.
But before it flew away, I took the opportunity to touch its fur. It was soft and smooth, and very nice to touch.
They looked at her with envy and tried their best themselves.
"Oh my, look, I have a bird on my hand too."
Wang Meilin shouted, and after her, the other two also realized their wishes one after another, and everyone shouted in surprise.
"Look, I've also stopped the bird."
"I have too. I have too."
They laughed and enjoyed the closeness of these white elves.
After having enough fun, we took a boat to play the water floating game.
Simply put, there are wooden plank passages made of iron chains on the water surface. If you stand on a wooden plank, you will be pushed into the water by the swinging chains if you are not careful.
By the time they arrived, the underwater crowd was already quite spectacular.
But the reward is too tempting, and everyone wants to give it a try.
Wang Meilin and the other three were also eager to move towards the crab-shaped convertible on the other side of the river.
This peculiarly shaped car is only half the height of an adult and has four compact seats. There is also a hanging basket for things on the side of the car. Although it is not big, it has everything a car should have.
The key is how cute this little car is.
Girls have no resistance to cute things.
The three of them were drooling and said, "It would be so cool if we could take this car for a ride around here."
Not only did they think so, but those who fell into the water also thought so, so they all went to the pool to drink water to calm down.
No matter how tempted they were, they knew that with their physical fitness after being used to sitting in the office, they were not sure whether they could even hold the first chain.
"It's definitely not going to happen. Let's go."
When they reluctantly turned around to leave, Qiu Jiang suddenly spoke in a crisp voice, "Who said it? There must be a chance."
After saying that, she stood behind the queue.
The people in front were a little scared and kept hesitating, but seeing that she was quite calm, they gave up their seats and slowly considered it.
Qiu Jiang didn't hesitate. He took a few steps forward and sank his energy into his dantian. He didn't even need a running start. He landed lightly on the first wooden board with just a tap of his toes. At this time, the chain didn't even shake.
Then they ran to the next plank, one after another, getting farther and farther away from them without stopping.
Wang Meilin and the other two turned around and stared at her, their eyes filled with shock and disbelief.
By the way, is Jiang Jiang so powerful?
Although they had heard from many colleagues who were on field work that she was very skilled, they had never seen it with their own eyes. Including the parkour performance in the bureau a few years ago, they only waited in the conference room and did not see it with their own eyes. Therefore, they actually did not have an accurate understanding of her skills. In the past, they just thought that her skills were slightly better than those of ordinary girls.
However, this looks more than just better than girls.
She is countless times more powerful than men.
They suddenly became excited and shouted.
"Come on, Jiang Jiang—"
“Come on, come on—”
Not only were they shouting, but the other strangers watching were shouting just as loudly as they were.
The scene suddenly turned into a cheering scene, with people everywhere cheering her on.
Qiu Jiang was also very powerful. With the last lift of his leg, he successfully reached the top of the finish line and turned around to show them "Yeah".
“Pah pah pah——”
There was thunderous applause everywhere.
Even the people in the scenic area couldn't help but applaud again and again. They didn't mind at all that she won the prize, but were excited that this was much more effective than a hundred advertisements.
They were even more excited than she was and couldn't wait to take her to the podium.
"I now declare that this crab car belongs to this lady. Let us warmly congratulate her."
“Pah pah pah——”
Wang Meilin and the others clapped the loudest in the crowd, especially when Qiu Jiang drove the crab car in front of them and asked them to get in, they immediately declared that she was their favorite idol.
So the four of them drove a crab car to the amusement park in a very cool way to look for someone. After nearly twenty minutes, they finally met someone they knew.
Wang Li, who was drinking a cold drink, was stunned when he saw them and subconsciously poked the person next to him.
Jia Wang and the others were still reminiscing about the thrill of the big turntable, so they looked in the direction he pointed. Once they saw it, they could no longer talk about what they had just played. Their minds and eyes were filled with this super cool little car.
"Oh my god, where did you get it from?"
"There are still buses here. How much is it to rent one?"
When they asked Wang Meilin, they all giggled.
"This is free. Our Jiang Jiang won it."
Qiu Jiang, sitting firmly in the driver's seat, smiled brightly.
"It was a lucky chance."
Ji Mingcheng came over after seeing her and guessed the real situation in one sentence.
"Won the competition?"
"Yeah, I'm awesome."
Qiu Jiang is not modest at all. The key is that her strength has been unanimously recognized by her peers.
Lu Xue and the others talked endlessly about the game that had just happened, instantly igniting the atmosphere on the scene.
Jia Wang and the others were also unwilling to accept the defeat and wanted to win another car to show them.
They did what they said and headed there in a hurry.
Qiu Jiang and the others sat in a crab car and ran in front of them to lead the way.
I absolutely really want them to win two more.
However, who can I blame for my own failure?
In less than half an hour, a line of soaked people appeared, and Ji Mingcheng held his forehead with his hand.
"Don't tell anyone you're from Team Five when you get out. I can't afford to lose face."
Deng Xingwang and the others felt wronged. "Captain Ji, why don't you go compete as well? Give us men some respect."
Ji Mingcheng didn't take his move.
"You're useless. If you want face, go earn it yourself."
Deng Xingwang was retorted and felt completely depressed.
It looks quite simple, why is it shaking like that?
They reviewed the situation countless times and felt that they should have a sure win, but the cold wind blowing on their bodies told them that they were overthinking.
Seeing that they were all soaked, they had no mood to play anything else and simply went to change their clothes and eat.
After replenishing our energy, we continued playing music and dancing in the afternoon, determined to have the most out of the day.
Everyone was busy this afternoon, and it was almost dark when they returned exhausted from the fishing island pier, each carrying the day's catch of seafood in their hands.
Among them, Ji Mingcheng and Deng Xingwang caught the most seafood, successfully providing the most delicious midnight snack for their hot spring bath at night.
At nightfall, they each washed away the day's fatigue in their own private baths.
The milky white hot spring has a faint smell of sulfur and a rich aroma of milk. Soaking in it for a while will make you feel like your whole body has been washed, which is quite comfortable and lazy. Not to mention that you can also drink it with freshly steamed seafood and fine wine, which makes you feel the endless beauty of the moonlight.
“If only every day could be this comfortable.”
They said with infinite anticipation.
It’s a pity that they also know it’s impossible, and they can probably only enjoy that kind of comfortable life after retirement.
But it's worth the trip anyway.
But before they even left, they were already planning when they would come and play next time.
I thought that even though the tickets here are expensive, it is still affordable to come here once a year, so I can bring my children here to have fun.
They were thinking of bringing their children here to play, while Qiu Jiang was thinking about how to bring the hot spring home.
Not to mention anything else, just soaking in it is quite comfortable. It is so relaxing and refreshing. I really don’t want to leave here.
So after arriving at the bathhouse, she no longer went out to play, but just soaked in the hot spring to wash away her fatigue.
Fortunately, the effect was excellent. When she woke up the next day, she was full of energy and not at all tired from yesterday's crazy play.
In comparison, these three sisters were yawning constantly, especially since it rained last night and it was still gloomy now, creating a particularly sleepy atmosphere, which made people even more listless.
But when they thought about leaving soon and hadn't had a good look around this county-level city, they immediately stopped feeling sleepy and pulled Qiu Jiang outside. They were familiar with the place and were obviously very familiar with it.
Qiu Jiang had no objection at all and followed them all the way. After turning a few corners, they saw a very long street full of people and all kinds of delicious food.
The fragrance was enough to draw their souls away.
Shop all the way and practice the true meaning of "buy, buy, buy" to the end.
Qiu Jiang also bought some local specialties to take home.
As I was walking, I suddenly smelled an indescribable stench, like the smell of rotting meat.
Not only did she smell it, but everyone who came to this position frowned, covered their noses, walked away quickly, or ran away after vomiting.
The only ones who couldn't escape were probably the vendors who set up fixed stalls nearby.
Not only was the smoke unbearable, but the business was also unable to open.
This is harmful to both your health and your money.
I can’t afford to be hurt. I really can’t afford to be hurt.
But the smell suddenly appeared in the morning, and they couldn't even figure out where it came from.
It's really annoying.
Everyone was so irritated that they rolled their eyes, but they still had to keep looking.
Some people who are irritable said, "If I find out who caused this smell, I will make him compensate me for the loss I made this morning."
Although the others didn't say so, their expressions clearly showed their agreement.
But as they searched, they found the sewer. Especially when they smelled it up close, they were even more certain that the smell came from the sewer.
Damn, who can I ask for compensation?
