Chapter 17 Meow, Injured Again

"Eldest brother, I don't know where Li Hua has gone." The man with blue flames between his brows fell to his knees, his hands on his chest, his face was full of pain.

"Tch..." The man in Tsing Yi who was called Senior Brother sneered, "Lan Sheng, I believe you don't know where she is, but if you didn't stop her, it's a big crime."

After finishing speaking, the man in blue turned his back to the person lying on the ground, and moved the blue jade bottle in his hand.

"En." The man on the ground only had time to snort before passing out.

"Li Hua." The man in Tsing Yi stood on the top of the mountain and looked into the distance, muttering in his mouth, "I indulged you too much, didn't I?"

After speaking, he took out a paper crane from his bosom and blew, "Go, follow her."

As soon as the words fell, the paper crane turned from white to transparent, and spread its wings towards the downhill.

"Meow" Li Hua fiddled with the jade bottles of different colors on the couch with her paws, but all of them were translucent, her eyes and face were full of joy, "Finally there is a new jade bottle"

Situ Qi looked at the scene in front of her, put her chin on her hands, and smiled in her eyes, "Sister, you have been watching for nearly half an hour, take a rest."

"Meow" Li Hua turned around and called out, "What do you know, do you know how many jade bottles I lost, let me have a look again." '

Situ Qi touched her nose in self-indulgence, he was also one of the people who made her lose her jade bottle.

"Li Hua" there was a knock on the door, "It's me, Xiao Yi."

Situ Qi opened the door and saw Xiao Yi holding a box in his hand.

"Thank you" he thanked Situ Qi, and walked sideways to the door.

Xiao Yi saw Li Hua playing with the jade bottle on the couch, with a smile on his face, he put the box in his hand on the couch and opened it.

"Meow?" Li Hua's eyes were attracted by the things in the box, she took two steps forward, and moved her claws curiously.

"This is for you." Xiaoyi pushed the box forward, "It's not as precious as the one sent by the master, it's so clear. But it's more novel."

Li Hua nodded after hearing this, it was indeed novel.There are six jade bottles in the box, which should come from the same piece of white jade.

Although the color of the jade is a bit cloudy, the carving master cleverly used the positions of the variegated colors to incorporate the carved animals into it.

"Meow" Li Hua called out to Xiao with a smile on her furry face.

"I knew it, you must like it." Xiao Yi touched his head and giggled.

"Dong dong dong" Before Li Hua could answer, the knock on the door rang again.

Situ Qi opened the door, saw Xiu Ze was carrying a food box in his hand, glanced at Xiao Yi who was silent in the room, snickered, and moved aside.

"Then what?" Xiao Yi clapped his hands, "Master, I haven't finished what you told me, so I'm leaving first."

Seeing Xiao Yi fleeing in despair, Li Hua was confused, closed the box, put it aside and called Xiu Ze, "What's the matter?" '

Xiu Ze opened the food box, took out the food inside one by one, and put them on the table.

He beckoned to Situ Qi, "I didn't eat anything good today, so I specially asked someone to buy some special dishes from Wangzhou City for you to add to your meal."

"Meow" Li Hua smelled the smell of food and jumped off the couch, onto the chair, and glanced at the food on the plate. 'Thanks. '

Situ Qi obediently thanked her, and raised her chopsticks to eat.

Seeing the person and the cat eating in front of them without looking up, Xiu Ze shook his head amusedly, picked up his chopsticks and joined them.

"Okay." Xiu Ze put down his chopsticks, "Eat less in the evening, that's enough."

Li Hua stopped talking, glanced at the little food left on the plate, picked up her paws and washed her face, 'Forget it, since the jade bottle and the food are good, I won't argue with you. '

"Hi..." Situ Qi hiccupped after eating, and began to circle around the table.

"Earlier, Xiaoyi took people with him. After questioning, we can confirm that the purse is connected in series." Xiu Ze put the plate back into the food box and cleared the table.

"Meow" Li Hua nodded to show that she knew, and looked at the jade bottle piled up in a corner of the couch. If you are not sure, there will be no jade bottle. '

Xiu Ze stared blankly at her action, then shook his head amusedly.

He took out the teapot from the tea tray and placed it on the table, "Assume this teapot is the place where the purse was embroidered."

Then take out a few cups and pour water "this water is the purse, and the cup is the person who bought or was given the purse"

Li Hua watched his movements and nodded.

"The problem is," Xiu Ze said, pushing a few cups aside, "It has been confirmed that the deceased were all people who had touched the purse, but apart from the deceased, so far no one knows where the purse came from?"

Situ Qi stopped by the table and rubbed her belly, "So the clue is broken?"

Xiu Ze nodded and shook his head again, "Yes and no, I have already ordered the Xiaoyi team to cooperate with the government to go to the victim's house to check one by one. I hope there will be good news."

"Meow" Li Hua raised her paw and touched the teapot, 'I'm sure that the current purse can no longer serve as a medium, but we don't know if the place where the purse is embroidered is only scattered out? '

Xiu Ze looked up at Situ Ze.

"Gudong" Situ Ze swallowed his saliva and relayed Li Hua's words.

Xiu Ze frowned, tapped the table twice with his fingers, and then stopped, "I'm going to give some orders, you guys go to bed early, there is still a tough battle to fight."

After speaking, he took the food box and went out to leave.

"Sister" Situ Qi bolted the door, "When do you think that monster will take action again?"

"Meow" Li Hua jumped on the soft bed and put away all the jade bottles, 'Go to sleep, it's important to recharge your batteries. '

After speaking, he curled up and lay down with his back to Situ Qi.

"Hey" Situ Qi responded crisply, blew out the oil lamp, and went to bed.

Hearing Situ Qi's gradually steady breathing, Li Hua opened her eyes, took out a blue jade bottle, and sprinkled the contents around the bed.

After completing this series of actions, Li Hua lightly jumped onto the edge of the window, and from the window onto the eaves.

"Is this Li Hua?" The guard guarding Situ Qi's window saw a cat passing by and asked the person next to him.

"That's right." Another person replied, "It's so late, where are you going?"

The black-faced dark guard slapped him with his hand, "Stay here, and I'll follow and have a look."

After finishing speaking, he did not wait for the other hidden guard to reply and followed up with lightness kung fu.

Li Hua shuttled back and forth on the roof of Fucheng with a light body, stopping from time to time, raising her head to smell lightly, and then choosing a direction to move on.

Here, Li Hua stopped and wanted to jump off the eaves, glanced behind her, and ran behind.

"Meow" Li Hua stopped in front of the panting man and called out to him.

"Hoo, hoo!" When the black-faced man was bending over to breathe, he met a pair of green cat's eyes, and was about to draw his weapon, when he heard her cry, he relaxed.

"I... I am the prince's dark guard, and my name is Dark Sparrow." The black-faced man introduced himself.

"Meow" Li Hua nodded, 'I know, you are one of the hidden guards guarding our window. '

After speaking, he raised his head and nodded in the direction she came from, and then took the lead to move forward.

"Is this asking me to follow you?" Anque guessed while watching her movements.

Li Hua nodded at him and kept walking forward.

On the roof of a private house, Li Hua raised her paw to her mouth in a silent gesture.Then he carefully lifted the tile, and looked at the situation inside through the exposed hole.

There was nothing abnormal on the surface, and she didn't hear any signs of life in this private house, which meant that there was no one there.

Li Hua thought about it, jumped off the roof, and walked towards one of the rooms. According to the smell, this room was the strongest.

Dark Sparrow followed closely behind her without making a sound.

Li Hua stretched out her claws and tried to push the door open, only to find that it was closed.Chong Anque pointed to the door.

The dark bird understood, and took out a hand in his waist, took out a wire and stirred it a few times at the lock, and only heard a "click", and the door opened.

Li Hua walked towards the door, scanned the surroundings, then stopped in front of a cabinet, and stretched out her claws to open the door.

What came into view was the purse found during the day, with different colors and styles, the only thing in common was the orchid embroidered on it.

Seeing this, Anque reached out to pick up a purse before Li Hua could recover, thinking to himself; how could this be the same as the purse that a team carried during the day.

Seeing his movements, Li Hua was shocked, and slapped the purse in An Que's hand fiercely with her claws.

Before he could react, he saw a dark red light shoot out from his purse, and hit Li Hua's front leg steadily, the remaining dark light circled Li Hua's body and slammed her into the cabinet behind superior.

"Yeah" Li Hua snorted and struggled to get up from the ground, this is another injury, the little fat man's tears will drown himself.

An Que panicked and ran towards Li Hua, at a loss as to what to do.

"Meow" Li Hua made a sound, and leaned her body against An Que's hand, it might be difficult to go back by herself.

Seeing this, Anque carefully avoided Li Hua's blackened wound, and gently picked her up.Several jumped up to the eaves, performed light kung fu and headed towards the other courtyard where they lived.
