Yu Xiangnian took a shower and returned to the room. After a while, Cheng Jingmo also came back with lunch.
"Rest in the guesthouse for lunch, and then we'll go out for dinner in the afternoon."
Yu Xiangnian thought the same thing. She asked, "When did you buy the ticket?"
"It's ten o'clock tomorrow morning, so if we get to the county town, it will be around eight o'clock in the evening."
Yu Xiangnian: "Hurry up and eat. After dinner, take Xiaojie to take a bath."
After dinner, Cheng Jingmo took Xiaojie to take a shower, washed his underwear, and hung them outside the windowsill on a clothes hanger.
The coat will definitely not dry after washing, so I can only take it home and wash it.
Yu Xiangnian seized the opportunity to work and continued working until dinner time.
The three of them came to the state-owned restaurant in Sucheng for dinner.
In the restaurant, Yu Xiangnian saw a man with a dark gray halo above his head sitting at a table not far away.
She is now completely certain that anyone with a halo of this color above their head is 90% likely a bad person.
Yu Xiangnian raised his chin in the direction of the man and said, "Cheng Jingmo, I think there is something wrong with that man."
Cheng Jingmo looked back and saw a man in his forties, wearing a navy blue suit, eating noodles.
He didn't see any problem.
"How do you know that?" he asked.
"Feeling." Yu Xiangnian said, "Let's follow him and take a look later."
Cheng Jingmo believed Yu Xiangnian, but it was inconvenient to take them with him. "You and Xiaojie go back to the guesthouse, I'll go and take a look."
Cheng Jingmo quickly finished his noodles. When the man finished his noodles and walked out, he winked at Xiang Nian and followed him out.
The man rode a bicycle, and Cheng Jingmo followed him jogging all the way to the suburbs.
The man entered a quarry.
At this time, the workers had already gone off work and there was almost no one in the quarry.
The man should be the person in charge of this quarry. He just took a look around and returned to a dormitory.
Cheng Jingmo sneaked into the quarry and took a look around. It was all stones and he didn't find any problems.
He returned to the guesthouse along the same route.
As soon as he entered the door, Yu Xiangnian asked, "Did you find anything?"
Cheng Jingmo talked about what he saw.
"It shouldn't be like this!" Yu Xiangnian frowned and fell into deep thought.
Then she asked several more questions, and Cheng Jingmo answered them all.
It sounds really good.
"Niannian..." Cheng Jingmo called her in a deep voice, with naked desire in his eyes.
The night before leaving home, Yu Xiangnian didn't let him touch her, saying that she got up early.
For a man who has just started having sex, his passion is surging. If he doesn't do it for three days, it's like holding it back for three years!
Yu Xiangnian ignored his desire and said, "Take me to see it!"
Cheng Jingmo: “...Okay.”
The two came to the quarry, which had no gate and not even a wall.
It is not easy to steal such a big stone, so there is no need to guard against thieves.
The two of them walked around with the help of flashlights but didn't find anything.
Did she really misjudge? !
Yu Xiangnian searched again without giving up, and finally came to the door of a warehouse.
"Cheng Jingmo, go into the warehouse and take a look."
Cheng Jingmo replied: "I looked inside when I came here just now. There were tools and stones inside."
"Stones?" Yu Xiangnian began to analyze. "You said, they are all stones, why do some of them need to be put in the warehouse?"
Cheng Jingmo said, "Maybe these are reserved for people, and they're put separately to avoid mistakes."
Yu Xiangnian said, "Can you open this lock?"
Cheng Jingmo found a thin wire nearby, poked it into the lock, and twisted it.
With a click, the lock opened.
The two of them gently pushed the door open a crack and tiptoed in.
Just as Cheng Jingmo said, apart from some tools there were only stones of different sizes.
Yu Xiangnian shone a flashlight on the stone and observed it carefully.
"Cheng Jingmo, what do you think this looks like?" She held a flashlight in one hand and pointed at the patterns on the stone with the other.
Cheng Jingmo thought for a moment and said uncertainly, "Like a big insect?"
"Yes! Like an isopod!"
Yu Xiangnian then shone the light on another stone, pointed at the pattern on it, and asked, "What about this one? What does it look like?"
Cheng Jingmo was somewhat certain this time, "Like a fish."
Yu Xiangnian and Cheng Jingmo observed several stones in succession, and the patterns on them were very special.
Yu Xiangnian said: "I suspect these are paleontological fossils."
"Paleontological fossils?" Cheng Jingmo repeated.
Although he had never heard of it, he could understand it from the literal meaning.
"We need to call the police," Yu Xiangnian said. "These things took trillions of years to form. They're extremely precious."
The two of them came to the Sucheng Public Security Bureau without hesitation.
The responding police officer had never heard of any ancient fossils and thought the two were just making a fuss. Isn't it normal to have lines on stones?!
Besides, it’s already one o’clock in the morning. Who would want to run so far just for a few stones?
The police officer who received the call said a few perfunctory words to the two and sent them back.
Just when I was at a loss, a man in his twenties came into the office with a blue and yellow halo on his head.
This man is the same as Cheng Jingmo, worthy of trust and entrustment.
The man sat on the wooden sofa with a tired look on his face, pinched his brows, and asked the police officer who answered the call.
"What's going on with them?"
The police officer explained the situation, but the man didn't take it seriously.
"I know that quarry. No problem, go back." The man said to Xiang Nian and Cheng Jingmo.
Yu Xiangnian did not give up and told the man the details and doubts.
The man frowned, half believing and half doubting, "Just because of a few lines, you are sure this is a precious fossil that took trillions of years to form?"
Yu Xiangnian nodded heavily.
The man then asked, "How can we be sure?"
Yu Xiangnian: “…” There is no way to answer this.
Cheng Jingmo pulled out his military ID from his jacket pocket and said, "I can use my identity to guarantee that there is definitely something wrong with those stones."
He believes in Yu Xiangnian!
He wore casual clothes when he went out this time because Yu Xiangnian thought it would be inconvenient for him to wear military uniform.
Yu Xiangnian also gave an example: "If someone asks you to change seats and you don't want to, you can't refuse them if you're wearing a military uniform."
Yu Xiangnian was right. I really met someone who insisted on changing seats!
Yu Xiangnian felt warm in his heart when he saw Cheng Jingmo's serious and upright face.
She and Cheng Jingmo finally reached the point where they trusted each other unconditionally!
The man took Cheng Jingmo's military ID and looked at it. His tired face became much more serious.
He returned his military ID to Cheng Jingmo and told the responding officer, "Go get Xiao Wang, come with me on this call!"
"Captain Gong, you haven't slept for two days. Xiao Wang and I will go!"
"Stop talking nonsense and send someone over!"
Captain Gong drove to the quarry with Cheng Jingmo, Yu Xiangnian and Xiao Wang.
