It was not until noon the next day that the canary flew into the room from somewhere and landed on Shen Dian's shoulder.
"Brother Bird, where have you been?" Shen Dian asked, without any sign of fear like yesterday.
The canary shook its wings, grabbed the cardboard with its claws, lowered its head and tapped the cardboard with its beak.
The Morse code translates to: Go south of the city.
"Go to the south of the city? Why go to the south of the city..." Shen Dian was puzzled, then he reacted and asked, "There are no old bastards in the south of the city? Or there are relatively few? You flew out... just to see this?"
Canary disappeared for the entire night and half of the day, it turned out that he had gone out to survey the route.
"Brother Bird, I am so touched!"
"You are so kind..."
Canary suddenly turned to look at him, her small round black eyes full of warning.
Shen Dian understood it immediately.
"What a fine animal!" he said.
﹉
Today's meal was not as good as what Shendian had last night. Breakfast was porridge with pickled cabbage, and for lunch there was stir-fried small yellow vegetables, lotus root, and potatoes. Several large pots of them were fried and placed in the middle of the round table.
There were about ten people eating around, both men and women, including four "small leaders" of the group.
Shen Dian quickly finished his lunch, stood up, walked around the round table, patted everyone on the shoulder, and said, "I'm done, colleagues, enjoy your meal! I'll be grateful for your care in the future."
Everyone found it strange, but they didn't think too much about it, and some even joked with Shen Dian.
They haven't even attended the class yet, but they're already so affectionate. This newcomer is getting into the role quickly.
After walking around, Shen Dian suddenly squatted down, re-tightened his shoelaces, and casually and quickly brushed his fingers over his body, and some bulging areas quickly became flat again.
"An Neng, let's go to the bathroom." He stood up and shouted to An Neng, who was picking and choosing the food at the table and having trouble swallowing.
"Ah?" An Neng looked back at him, bewildered.
"I don't want to go."
“Forget it.” Shen Dian rolled his eyes and walked towards the toilet.
"Hey hey hey! Wait! Oh my gosh!" An Neng reacted, dropped his bowl and chopsticks, and chased after him.
I don't know why we have to go to the bathroom together in such a small three-bedroom, one-living room apartment.
"Bang!" The toilet door closed.
The two of them really went into the small toilet together.
Everyone at the dinner table looked at each other.
"What are they doing? Can they fit in such a small place?" a female member asked puzzledly.
"...Maybe they went to smoke. After all, they are all newcomers." The male member answered hesitantly.
"Keep a close eye on these two."
﹉
In the toilet.
"Follow me later." Shen Dian said.
"But, but I can't run away. The security door is locked and can only be opened with a key..."
Shen Dian tilted his head and smiled, his eyes narrowed, his teeth were milky white, and his face was childish. He suddenly reached out and stroked behind An Neng's ear.
"We have the key~"
He reached behind An Neng's ear and brought the hand closer, and sure enough, there was a key between his index and middle fingers.
"Wow... where did this come from!" An Neng took the key with joy, but then became depressed again.
"There are more than ten people sitting in the living room, and their people are guarding the first floor as well. Even if you have the key, you can't escape."
"If I get caught while running away...I'm sure my legs will be broken!"
"Why are you panicking?" Shen Dian put his hands on his hips and looked around the toilet, trying to find something useful.
“This is good…”
Shen Dian picked up the rag mop hanging on the wall, filled half a bucket of water, put the mop into the bucket, and soaked it completely.
"Give me the key."
"Take this half bucket of water and follow me. When you are almost at the door, I will run to open it. Remember to follow me. If someone catches up with me when I open the door, splash him in the face!"
"clear?"
"Ming...I understand!" An Neng took the half bucket of water, his fingers trembling, and swallowed nervously.
"Don't be afraid, I'm very powerful!" Shen Dian said, patting his chest.
An Neng secretly glanced at the bruises on the corners of his mouth and forehead that had not yet disappeared, and did not dare to speak.
Since he was able to get the key, he must be a reliable person... right?
In the living room, the people who had eaten had gone to take a nap, and only three people were sitting in a circle playing poker, with one person waiting to be replaced.
The person facing the toilet saw Shen Dian and An Neng coming out, one holding a dripping mop and the other carrying a bucket, and asked in confusion, "Sheng Gou, An Neng, what are you doing?"
The other three turned their heads and looked sideways.
"The floor is dirty. Mop it." Shen Dian looked unhappy and answered stiffly.
"I have a mysophobia and can't stand seeing such a mess."
"...Oh...it's my turn now. Two!" The man who asked the question choked and changed the subject.
"King bomb!"
"I can't bear it."
The other three also turned around and went back to play poker.
Shen Dian and An Neng walked towards the entrance quickly and silently.
When he reached the entrance, Shen Dian suddenly took big steps and stopped in front of the door. He instantly inserted the key in his hand into the keyhole of the security door.
An Neng hurried to follow.
“Pah.”
The anti-theft door lock came on.
The four people playing cards finally reacted.
"What are you doing!" The man who was waiting to be replaced in playing cards rushed over and tried to stop the two from escaping.
"Puff...splash..." An Neng poured out all the water in the bucket, catching the man off guard, and soaking his head and face.
The man slowed down his pace, wiped his face, spat out the water in his mouth, and continued to chase.
By this time, Shen Dian and An Neng had already rushed out of the room and ran to the fourth floor.
The man shouted loudly, waking up the people in the house.
The two rushed down from the fifth floor.
The people on the fifth floor were in chaos and were desperately chasing after him, but how could a fleeing person run faster than a big thief?
On the first floor, a dozen people heard the roar from the fifth floor and had already discovered the situation. They were guarding the gate and preparing to intercept Shen Dian and An Neng.
"Scatter!" Shen Dian waved the mop in his hand randomly, and the water on the mop splashed everywhere.
An Neng followed closely behind Shen Dian, his heart beating like a drum, his whole body tense, and his blood boiling.
The dozen or so people swarmed towards the two men, overwhelming them with their sheer numbers.
"Good timing!" Shen Dian kept moving, lifted the mop diagonally upwards, and swung it vigorously in a half circle.
“Puff, puff, puff…”
The wet and dripping mop was pressed hard against the person's face, sticking to the skin, nose and mouth, and then it was dragged over. Then it was pressed against the next person's face, and then dragged over again...
One of them was short and short of the required height, and he was in the front, so the mop passed over his head.
He lowered his head, pointed it forward, and rushed towards Shen Dian while shouting.
Shen Dian stretched out his leg and kicked him in the abdomen, but he didn't expect to kick him directly away...
The scene was once very tragic.
The people who rushed up from behind couldn't help but retreat when they saw the five or six forwards being hit on the heads and faces by the dirty mops.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Shen Dian accelerated towards the gate.
"Ah!" An Neng followed closely behind, but was caught off guard when someone suddenly reached out and grabbed his arm.
Shen Dian tucked the mop head under his arm, turned around and hit the wooden end of the mop, hitting the hand that suddenly stretched out.
The man felt pain and reflexively pulled his arm back.
“Go!”
Perhaps the other side was extremely confident in the number of their own people, so the door was not locked or even bolted.
This was a piece of cake for the two people who were escaping.
Shen Dian pushed the door open.
The bright sunlight outside the door shines in, as if piercing through the fog and lighting up a bright lamp.
The two of them squinted their eyes slightly in discomfort, and rushed out the door without stopping here.
"Chiu——"
A clear and bright bird cry was heard in the sky.
The pale yellow bird that had been waiting on the branch for a long time flew up and circled in the air above their heads.
“Don’t run!”
"stop!"
There were shouts coming from behind.
An Neng was one step behind, panting; Shen Dian was running in front, without taking a breath, and was at ease.
And he even had time to yell back: "Only a fool would not run! Catch up if you can!"
"Hu... Hu... If you have the guts, don't run!" There were only three or four people left chasing, and they were also running out of breath.
"Hahahaha! Come and chase me. If you can catch me, I will... show you the video of Pleasant Goat taking a bath!"
Behind: ...
"Damn idiot!"
Shen Dian almost laughed to death and felt very satisfied with himself for being naughty.
"Hey, An Neng, you're running too slowly. How can you ever get rid of the people behind you?" Shen Dian said as he grabbed An Neng's arm, pulled him up and ran faster.
An Neng only felt gusts of strong wind blowing across his face, his feet staggering, and he could not keep up with the pace at all. He was half being dragged and half running on his own.
After turning a few corners, the person chasing me soon disappeared.
Shen Dian suddenly stopped, and An Neng was gasping for breath. He barely looked up and found that the two of them had rushed into a dead end alley.
They are not familiar with the surrounding area at all.
"...Huh...run now...run out of the alley, we should still have time!" An Neng said with difficulty, gasping for breath.
Shen Dian looked at him strangely and asked, "Why are you leaving the alley?"
After taking a few steps back, Shen Dian blew a breath into each hand, bent down, lowered his body, and rushed forward.
The direction he rushed towards was the wall that blocked the alley, which was about two meters high.
He rushed forward, and somehow kicked the wall with two or three feet, grabbed the edge of the wall with his hands, and jumped onto the top of the wall.
The canary flew overhead.
Shen Dian turned around, squatted on the wall, and shouted to An Neng, "Come up quickly!"
An Neng was stunned and said with tears in his eyes: "I... I can't go up."
"Push as far as you can, give me your hand and I'll pull you up." Shen Dian squatted down, stretched out his hand to him, and looked at him encouragingly.
The canary landed on Shen Dian's shoulder, and its black round eyes also looked at An Neng.
"Too exciting..." An Neng murmured, backing away, sprinting, pushing against the wall, reaching upwards...
Shen Dian grabbed his hand and, using the force of his sprint, pulled him up to the top of the wall.
The two men jumped off the wall from the other side and ran for a while through the streets and alleys before stopping.
The canary hovered low over them, checking to see if anyone was catching up.
An Neng was panting, Shen Dian leaned against the wall, groping left and right on his body.
He took out a wallet from his left waist and a cell phone from his right waist. His thighs shook, and two more cell phones and wallets fell down...
An Neng stared in shock as he took out three wallets, three hundred yuan in loose cash, and three cell phones from his body.
Shen Dian took out all the cash in the wallet, totaling more than two thousand.
"You...you..." An Neng said hesitantly.
Shen Dian looked up and smiled at him.
I pressed the phones one by one, picked one that didn't have a lock screen password, opened the address book and dialed a number.
"Hello, I want to call the police. There is a pyramid scheme here."
"The address is No. 32, 5th Floor, Building 5, Ryt Road, ZS City. By the way, there is one on the first floor, and there may be some on other floors."
"Please send the police quickly. We just ran out and they might have already reacted and packed up their things and ran away."
"You can definitely get here within half an hour, right? I've called the police in other places, so don't wait until the person runs away before you come. I'm counting the time here~"
After saying that, Shen Dian hung up the phone, then really dialed a few numbers "beep beep" and called.
"Hello, how are you?" A steady and serious voice came from the phone.
"Hey, I'm Shen Dian."
The other party was stunned: "... Didn't you... get the things? Have you left the province?"
"Not yet. I'm in ZS City and I encountered a pyramid scheme. I called the local police. Can you help me urge the local police to prevent them from escaping?"
"This pyramid scheme is so arrogant and secretive, and has not been discovered yet. I don't trust the local authorities at all..."
other side:……
"God Dian! Aren't you cooperating on a mission? How did you get involved with pyramid schemes? What are you doing?!"
Shen Dian quickly held the phone away from his ear to avoid being shocked by the roar from the other side.
"Okay, okay, I got it. We'll be leaving the province soon. You guys just wait there to pick me up. Have someone urge them over here and keep an eye on them. Don't let these people get away."
After saying that, Shen Dian hung up the phone and rubbed his ears.
"Wait here. The police will be here in half an hour. Follow them and get your ID back."
Shen Dian handed the mobile phone used to call the police to An Neng.
"Here."
"Where are you going?" An Neng could sense that Shen Dian was about to leave.
"I have something urgent to do, so I'll leave first."
"Today... Thank you, thank you! Thank you for saving me, otherwise..." An Neng bowed repeatedly to express his gratitude.
Shen Dian declined An Neng's request for contact information and his idea of repaying him in the future. He looked around, not knowing the way and didn't know which way to run.
"Chiu——"
Overhead, a canary chirped softly and melodiously as it flew off in one direction.
Shen Dian hurried to follow.
After chasing the canary for about ten minutes, they passed a commercial street. Shen Dian stared at the beautiful dress in the closet and hesitated for a long time. Finally, he gritted his teeth and walked into the store.
A few minutes later, he came out carrying a shopping bag.
Then he went into the women's shoe store, jewelry store, cosmetics store and...lingerie store.
They all stayed in the store for a few minutes and then came out with new shopping bags.
He entered the men's restroom carrying these large and small bags.
The canary stayed on a branch outside and waited, closing its eyes.
Half an hour later.
A tall girl with red curly hair, bright big eyes and bright red lips, wearing a blue long dress, a brown hat and a pair of flat shoes, walked out of the men's restroom cubicle.
Several men standing in front of the urinals were stunned and quickly turned their heads to stare at her.
"Hmph!" The tall girl rolled her eyes, sneered at their fuss, and walked out of the men's room with a seductive step.
The canary circled over the tall girl's head for a long time, but finally couldn't bear it and landed on her shoulder...
He really didn't expect that Shen Dian would be so...
It's indescribable.
Shen Dian was also very desperate inside, but in order to succeed in the mission, he gave it his all!
The last time I was caught, it was because my disguise was not good enough and I was recognized. This time, I must not make the same mistake again.
Shen Dian stopped a taxi and gave the driver all the remaining money. Only then was the driver reluctantly willing to cross the province and travel the distance of more than a thousand kilometers.
The canary flew into the car and would rather stand in the bumpy back seat than land on Shen Dian's shoulder.
The journey was smooth.
We did meet two groups of Wang Wensheng's people on the highway, but none of them could recognize Shen Dian.
Three days later.
Seven or eight police cars surrounded Wang Wensheng's villa, and many policemen were walking back and forth.
The door of one of the police cars opened, revealing a baby-faced man. He walked towards the gate of the villa with a smile on his face, with a pale yellow canary standing on his shoulder.
On the other side, a person came towards them.
"Sister Ying!" Shen Dian shouted.
The Sister Ying he mentioned was neatly dressed in a police uniform, with a smile on her face, and walked towards him quickly with a heroic look.
Stand still and salute solemnly.
Then he relaxed and smiled at Shen Dian, "Thank you for your hard work."
Shen Dian scratched his head, a little embarrassed: "No, no, I am sorry for wronging Sister Ying... these past few months..."
Su Ying smiled slightly and interrupted, "We have successfully captured Wang Wensheng and the people behind him. All the efforts are worth it."
"You bitch! I trusted you so much!" Two policemen pressed Wang Wensheng as they passed by. His eyes were filled with hatred and his face was ferocious. He gritted his teeth as he stared at Suying, who was standing straight in police uniform.
"I'm going to beat you to death, you stinky bitch!" Wang Wensheng suddenly rushed forward and the two police officers were unable to stop him for a while.
Shen Dian's face turned cold and he was about to step forward, but Su Ying stopped him.
Suying stretched out her leg expressionlessly and kicked Wang Wensheng in the stomach, knocking him to the ground.
"You! You!" Wang Wensheng was furious, his eyes bloodshot.
"As a police officer, you abused lynching and beat prisoners! I will sue you in court and make you pay for it!"
Su Ying rolled her eyes and looked at the two police officers who quickly subdued Wang Wensheng. She said in a cold voice, "Did you see me hit him?"
"No, no!"
"He bumped into your foot himself!"
Two police officers covered Wang Wensheng's mouth and dragged him away.
"Chiu——"
There were loud bird calls in the sky.
The two looked up.
Under the vast blue sky and white clouds, the pale yellow birds are spinning and flying freely, gradually flying away.
The cry seemed to be saying goodbye.
The author has something to say: This world still has a little ending.
