Chapter 18 Drying! Case: 'Flesh Processing Factory!'

Police clerks get off work very quickly, at five o'clock. The nine-to-five life of civil servants is always fascinating.

But not all police officers are civil servants these days.

It does not refer to auxiliary police, but contract police. Previously, police were recruited from the society, so their quality and abilities were uneven, and they were not classified as civil servants.

It was only recently that this system was abolished and employees were included in the ranks of civil servants.

"I haven't gotten off work yet."

Chu Xi glanced at the time, then whispered something and walked towards her work station.

Her position was easy and was one of the most comfortable jobs in the police station.

At first, Chu Xi wanted to join the front line, but Li Jianye and the director of the Municipal Bureau did not want to see this alarm number being restarted for the fourth time, so they decisively and forcibly arranged for her to work in the office.

In the afternoon, half past five.

"Okay!"

As soon as he got off work, Chu Xi immediately became energetic and looked at Xu Hao with wide eyes.

Sure enough, no matter who you are, you will feel bored at work but full of energy after get off work, and Chu Xi is no exception.

Xu Hao complained but didn't show it.

"Let's go eat grilled fish!"

He first took Chu Xi back home. Her home was very big, or rather, it was not entirely her home. Her sacrificed father was very familiar with the director of the Municipal Bureau.

After her father's death, the director of the Municipal Bureau took away seven-year-old Chu Xi and her seventeen-year-old brother and raised them personally.

Later, his brother died while saving others, and the director was unwilling to let Chu Xi join the front line.

Chu Xi looked very beautiful after changing her clothes. She was wearing a light floral dress and white shoes, looking like a white moonlight.

Xu Huo didn't care much. He had seen the other party like this for more than ten years. He turned around and stopped a taxi.

"Master, go east to Gate No. 1."

Jiangsan City is located on the coast. There is a scenic spot on the east side. The scenic spot has four gates. If you say Gate No. 1, the master will know which way to go.

Of course, Jiangsan City will not only develop tourism.

If nothing unexpected happens, Jiangsan City will soar in 10 years, and it will not be a problem for it to become a top second-tier city after a few more years of development.

But it has nothing to do with the current Jiangsan City.

The road was bumpy and difficult to drive on, and the driver was cursing all the way.

"Master, take care."

After paying the money, Xu Hao turned and looked at Chu Xi.

"Do you want to eat at Rongfu Restaurant or a roadside stall?"

Chu Xi blinked and said, "I can do anything."

"You can choose not to." Xu Hao refused the other party.

"That's up to you." Chu Xi said again.

"You are not allowed to be so casual." Xu Huo refused seriously again.

The evil "anything is fine" and "whatever" make people with choice distress miserable!

Chu Xi was in distress, and after a long while, he said, "Then I want to eat what you cook."

"Well, this is fine."

Xu Hao was very satisfied with this little fan girl who had great confidence in his cooking skills.

Of course, the other party’s cooking skills are not bad either.

Strictly speaking, both of them are orphans. When Chu Xi was a child, she liked to make some sweets and feed herself at school, so her cooking skills are still clear.

Chu Xi looked at the time, it was half past six in the evening.

"Hurry up, hurry up, maybe you can find a bargain if you go to the seafood market now!"

Chu Xi stood behind him, pushing Xu Hao's back with both hands and walking forward, his tone very urgent.

“It saves a lot of money!”

Seafood is different from other vegetable markets. These things are easy to spoil and usually go bad if they are not sold at night, so many vendors will give discounts.

Although Chu Xi was not short of money, he rarely used the pocket money given by the director of the Municipal Bureau. It was all pension and inheritance, so he would come here to pick up bargains when he was in junior high school.

When Xu Hao was a child, he was very poor and had to come here to pick up bargains.

"Why are you in such a hurry? You have money now, so why bother picking up bargains? Just buy whatever you want to eat."

Xu Hao spoke while running.

But Chu Xi didn't say anything and continued walking quickly.

The two didn't stop until they reached the seafood market.

"Let's buy a yellow croaker, four crabs, three pounds of lobster, and a crucian carp."

Xu Hao thought so in his heart.

Yellow croaker is a very famous fish, and it is very delicious.

It's great for cooking. Eat crabs and lobsters as usual, and then have some crucian carp soup.

Chu Xi didn't object. She followed Xu Hao and sleepwalked.

After buying the crabs, Xu Hao stood up and looked around.

It took a long while before Chu Xi was seen squatting on the ground, poking a live fish with his hands.

"Be careful not to lose it."

Xu Hao knocked on her head and spoke in great dissatisfaction.

"Oh, I see." Chu Xi covered his head and said in a low voice.

"We're still missing one yellow croaker." Xu Huo checked it and said, then thought for a moment and looked at the boss, "Boss, where can I buy yellow croaker?"

"Yellow croaker? Turn right and go to the second stall. There's a young man there. Hey, he's very capable. He has fresh yellow croaker."

The boss took a puff of his cigarette and spoke vaguely.

"Thank you."

After paying the money, Xu Hao turned and walked towards there, looking back from time to time to see if there was anyone he had lost.

However, just as he turned the corner, he suddenly stopped.

"Um?"

"Um?"

Xu Hao stood there in a daze, looking at the fishmonger at the second stall at the corner.

The fishmonger put one foot on the stool, bent over, holding a fish in his hand, and stared at Xu Hao blankly.

"Fuck?"

"I bumped into you again!"

The fish in his hand gave Wang Chao two big slaps. Wang Chao was startled and looked at Xu Hao in surprise.

"We are so destined to be together!!!"

Xu Hao: Looking at him, Xu Hao seemed to be hesitant to speak. He really didn't expect that he would meet Wang Chao in the evening, who had said he was going to start a business in the afternoon.

"Wang Chao? What's wrong with you?"

"Hey, why don't you come and observe my second uncle's fishing business and take a look at the seafood market? When the time comes, I can use my connections to transport seafood inland. I will definitely make money!"

Wang Chao grinned, and Xu Hao felt that if he had long hair and held a trident, he could play Aquaman.

Please...collect 6_9_book_bar (Six//Nine//Book//bar)

Well, the snowy Aquaman.

"Brother, are you here to buy fish?" Wang Chao looked at the bag in Xu Hao's hand.

"Buy some yellow croaker."

Xu Hao nodded and pointed at the fish path on his chopping board.

"Hey, what's the point of buying it? We are destined to be together, so I'll give you a good one!"

Wang Chao spoke generously, then looked at his stall.

"Hey, these fish are not good. Come with me. My second uncle has saved a wild yellow croaker. It's delicious. I'll give it to you!"

"Your second uncle doesn't beat you?"

"A beating can get me a fish, what a value!" Wang Chao said. He had a good relationship with his second uncle and had always followed his second uncle around since he was a child. Besides, it was just a fish, and the other party had eaten it before, so it didn't matter.

However, if this way of thinking is used in business, to be honest, Xu Hao feels it would be a pity if he didn't go to Tilanqiao.

The corner of Xu Hao's mouth twitched. He felt that this kid was a little heartless.

But I don’t care. I’ll just pay later.

As soon as I walked out of the seafood market, the sky suddenly darkened.

Xu Huo looked up and realized that it was already dark.

He and Chu Xi followed Wang Chao and walked towards the fishing village not far away.

Where there are fishermen and seafood markets, there are naturally fishing villages, which have a slight fishy smell but it is not offensive.

Wang Chao's second uncle's house was close to the edge, so Xu Hao and the other man did not go in, but waited at the door.

Xu Hao stood there bored until the corner of his clothes was pulled.

"What is that?"

Chu Xi came over and asked in a low voice. She stretched out her hand and pointed at a shadow hanging in the air not far away.

The shadow is not small, hanging in the air, and its shape does not look like that of an ordinary fish.

It is placed right in front of the gate of Wang Chao’s second uncle’s house, in the distance.

What the hell is this? Xu Hao frowned, but before he could think about it, another voice came to his ear.

“The fish are coming!”

Wang Chao appeared, holding a plastic bag filled with water and a fresh yellow croaker in the water.

"What is that?"

Xu Hao was not in a hurry to pay. He silently pointed to the shadow opposite the door.

Wang Chao turned his head to look, then scratched his head.

"Salted fish?"

"A lot of people are drying salted fish. It should be the salted fish that my second uncle dried."

"I'll break off two pieces for you to try."

After saying that, Chaozi walked forward hurriedly again, and approached with one hand pinching the salted fish.

Very soft, so soft that it seems like it has no bones.

Wang Chao subconsciously wanted to pinch it a few more times, but the salted fish was soft? Chaozi paused for a long while, then slowly raised his head, squinted his eyes, and used the moonlight to see the thing on his head clearly.

Above his head, there was a face facing him, with white eyes and a pale face.

In an instant, the smile on Wang Chao's face froze.

There was silence for a moment.

The next second. "Oh my god!"

A scream resounded throughout the night sky.

Xu Hao was about to step forward, but a sentence suddenly echoed in his ears.

[Congratulations to the host for triggering the mission: Write the plot 'The Flesh and Blood Processing Factory Case!']

[Reward cards are available in four levels: 25% immersion, 50% immersion, 75% immersion, and 100% immersion]

Suddenly, Xu Hao looked around and felt a sense of dream.

He seemed to have dreamed of this scene a long time ago.

That's not where the salted fish are dried.

But to dry people in the sun.

Xu Hao frowned and looked at Wang Chao who was lying on the ground in the distance with a mouth full of "fuck". He looked at the light blue light curtain in front of him and muttered to himself.

"Flesh processing factory?"

"never mind."

"Xiao Xi, call the police."
