Chapter 692 Traces
When the three of them dispersed, the three lurking in the dark gestured to each other, and quickly assigned tasks. They happened to be three people, and they could monitor the three people in the cooking class separately.

Tantai Jingming was in charge of monitoring Lao Kong, while Xiao Yu and Lao Wu were handed over to two other people to monitor.

After they dispersed, Lao Kong went straight into the warehouse, and Tantai Jingming also saw the timing and quietly approached the warehouse.

It was also the first time for Tantai Jingming to come to the warehouse of the cooking class. Looking at the various daily necessities piled up in the warehouse, Tantai Jingming felt dizzy for a while. In the warehouse of two to three hundred square meters, all kinds of materials are neatly classified After stacking them together, Lao Kong put down the dry pipe in his hand, took out the paper and pen from the warehouse, and began to count the quantities of various materials side by side.

"One hundred and three bags of rice, five pieces and three bags of salt..."

Lao Kong carefully counted the quantity of each material, and whenever he counted one, he took paper and pen to record the quantity of this material.

Listening to the old Kong chanting all kinds of numbers, Tantai Jingming suddenly felt drowsy, she admired the old Kong, although the old Kong was not old, But going up and down on all kinds of piled materials is also a very labor-intensive thing.

Old Kong was not like martial arts practitioners like them. It was really not easy to keep counting the warehouse every day.

It has been two hours since Lao Kong took inventory of the supplies piled up above, but his work is not over yet, vegetables and meat are still stored in the cellar, and he has to take stock of the supplies in the lower cellar .

Opening the cellar door, Lao Kong followed the ladder into the cellar.

A few minutes after Lao Kong went down, Tantai Jingming also quietly came to the door of the cellar, put her ear on the door of the cellar, and listened to the movement below.

"There are only six pieces of pork left, and there are not many chicken and beef left. It seems that we have to notify the higher-ups to send supplies..."

While counting the amount of materials in the cellar, Lao Kong kept talking to himself, and his mouth never stopped. It seemed that only in this way could he pass the endless lonely time.

Lao Kong kept talking below, while Tantai Jingming kept pressing her ear to the door. As an innate expert, her hearing was much more sensitive than ordinary people. Although Lao Kong's voice was not loud, she could I can hear you clearly.

When Lao Kong finished counting all the supplies, it was already close to the early morning.

Hearing the sound of Lao Kong walking towards the cellar door, Tantai Jingming immediately hid in the corner, and just as he hid, the sound of Lao Kong pushing the cellar door came from below.

Old Kong rubbed his waist and came out of the cellar, sighed wryly, "Time is not forgiving, this waist is getting worse and worse, oh..."

It can be heard that Lao Kong's sigh is full of many emotions, including loneliness and helplessness brought about by physical pain.

Tantai Jingming understands the suffering of Lao Kong. She feels a little tired just by watching Lao Kong outside, not to mention that Lao Kong keeps going up and down on various piles of materials. Insisting on personally counting the inventory in the warehouse is actually a matter of extremely physical exertion. I'm afraid he has already fallen to the root of his illness, right?

Thinking of this, Tantai Jingming couldn't help praying in her heart, this spy must not be Lao Kong, otherwise, she wouldn't know how to face Lao Kong, the old man of the dragon group.

Coming out of the warehouse, it was already pitch black outside, Tantai Jingming kept shouting in her heart: Go to sleep!go to bed now!

It wasn't that she was sleepy, she just wanted Lao Kong to go to sleep, and she didn't want to see him do something that made her suspicious.

However, her constant shouting in her heart did not have any effect. After coming out of the warehouse, Lao Kong did not fall asleep, but the sheet recording the quantities of various materials was clipped and hung on the wall of the kitchen. When they prepare meals, they know that there are few supplies and there are many supplies, and they can give priority to consuming more ingredients, while less ingredients can be balanced, so as not to run out of scarce supplies before they are delivered.

After so many years in Longzu, Lao Kong has already summed up a set of the most reasonable method of arranging vegetables.

After hanging up the list of supplies, Lao Kong checked the kitchen and dining room again to ensure that there were no safety hazards before turning off the power of the kitchen and dining room, and then walked outside the restaurant with his dry pipe.

After finishing everything, Lao Kong still didn't go to sleep, and sat under the tree outside the restaurant door a little tired.

At this time of year, the ground has already begun to cool down, but Lao Kong sat down regardless, leaned his back on the tree trunk, rubbed his sore arms, and then took a dry pipe in his mouth and lit himself a little. Pot of dry tobacco.

In the pitch-black night, there was only a faint light from Lao Kong's flickering pipe, through which one could see Lao Kong's exhausted face.

From time to time, a burst of grayish-white smoke rose from the dry tobacco pipe, showing a bit of eerie red against the slightest trace of firelight.

After smoking a bag of dry tobacco, Lao Kong patted his buttocks on the tree trunk and stood up, walking to his room.

Just when Tantai Jingming thought that Lao Kong was about to take a rest, Lao Kong stopped abruptly, turned his head and glanced at a big tree in the left rear, then let out a heavy sigh, then turned and walked towards himself s room.

Seeing this action of Lao Kong, Tantai Jingming felt inexplicably shocked.

The light in Lao Kong's room was only on for less than 3 minutes. After a simple wash, Lao Kong finally fell asleep after finishing everything. Not long after, Lao Kong's snoring sound came from the room.

After confirming that Lao Kong was asleep, Tantai Jingming walked out from the darkness, walked to the place where Lao Kong stopped just now, looked back from the same angle, and finally set her gaze on the place where Lao Kong was looking at. tree.

Tantai Jingming walked under the tree and carefully checked the side of the tree, but found no suspicious clues. Afterwards, she locked her gaze on the tree again, and tapped lightly on the ground to make people feel Already jumped up the tree.

Now the surroundings are pitch black, and she didn't search too much, she found a slightly hidden place in the tree, and slowly closed her eyes.

When a faint light appeared in the sky, Tantai Jingming opened her eyes, and carefully searched the trees for possible clues.

After searching, her eyes suddenly fell on a branch of the big tree. The bark of that branch had shallow scratches. Although the scratches were not obvious, they were densely distributed all over the branch. In some places the color is no different from that of the bark, in other places the bark seems to have been recently damaged.

Having discovered this, Tantai Jingming felt no joy in her heart, only infinite disappointment.

She could tell that these scratches were left by the horned owl...
