Is it normal to live on the phone to help your boyfriend investigate the case?

Chapter 14 I Was Coaxed By You

Qu Mingcong has no intention of being an envoy of justice, nor is he too lazy to judge the right and wrong in other people's marriages. He has always tried to be an indifferent bystander and earn some money that doesn't hurt or itch.

But this time was different. He knew very well that once the video was handed over to the client, the woman would be beaten more severely. At that time, he would no longer be a bystander, but the perpetrator.

Therefore, Qu Mingcong could not earn the 5 yuan with peace of mind.

But he is short of money...

Oh, lack of money is a source of misery.

Compared with [-] yuan, [-] yuan is indeed a lot less, but it is still a big deal for a firm with sluggish business.

Qu Mingcong calmed down his depressed mood slightly, and asked Qiao Yueying, "Do you have any clues?"

Qiao Yueying shook her two ponytails on the phone, and said slowly: "Didn't we take a lot of pictures of cats yesterday, I was idle and I was idle, so I flipped through the photos on the phone several times, Some of the pictures were taken by me…”

Qu Mingcong recalled what happened in the past few days. If Qiao Yueying took the photos, it seems... How many photos did she take when she was in the fruit shop?
"You mean the dog?" he remembered.

Qiao Yueying brought up the photo album, flipped through the photo - the shaggy dog ​​laying on the wall with a smirk on its face.

Qiao Yueying zoomed in on the photo, so that Qu Mingcong could see a few sundries under the bracket of the fruit box, which looked like ordinary pet toys, with molar bones, elastic balls, and a ring-shaped thing.

"The next one will be clearer."

Qiao Yueying turned to the next one, which was barely a little clearer than the previous one, it seemed to be a collar.

The photo was too blurry, and Qu Mingcong couldn't see more details.

"Don't you think this collar looks familiar?" Qiao Yueying also called out the photo of the white cat. The collar on the white cat's neck was indeed somewhat similar to the one in the photo.

"The cat's hair covers more than half of it, so it's still not clear enough." Qu Mingcong frowned and looked at it for a moment, then said, "Let's go to the fruit shop to see what the real thing looks like, and then contact the owner of the white cat and ask her if she has a separate photo of the collar. , for easy comparison."

After he finished speaking, he left and no longer cared about the intimate couple in the massage parlor. This business was over for him, and he naturally didn't bother to worry about the work that didn't make money.

After walking a few steps, he stopped.

Qu Mingcong frowned, and asked Qiao Yueying, "Since I found out yesterday, why did you tell me today?"

Qiao Yueying smiled awkwardly: "Hey~~ Guess what?"

Qu Mingcong: "..."

There is no need to guess?
"Because the priority of the [-] order is higher than the [-], you don't want to cause extra problems at this juncture, so you plan to wait for me to get the reward and buy you the most expensive gift package, and then look for other opportunities to make a deal with me. Let this clue Maximize the utilization value."

Qiao Yueying smiled and winked at him, "We have a tacit understanding."

Qu Mingcong was expressionless: "Don't be cute, I don't like the Two-dimensional set."

Qiao Yueying immediately withdrew her smile and curled her lips, "...Tch, what kind of attitude."

Seeing this, the corners of Qu Mingcong's mouth curved slightly, and he couldn't help showing a smile, and asked, "Then why did you suddenly want to tell me today?"

"It wasn't sudden either," she said with her head tilted. "Didn't I just say that I wanted to make you happy."

Qu Mingcong smiled, raised his foot and walked forward, "Okay, I was coaxed by you."

Qiao Yueying's face suddenly brightened, and she said happily, "Really? Then buy me a gift bag!"

"Buy." Qu Mingcong thought for a while, "Don't buy 648, buy a cheap one."

Qiao Yueying thought it was fine.

As long as he is willing to pay for it, she is satisfied no matter how big or small the gift package is!Who told her to meet an iron cock?It's not easy to pluck hair~
……

…………

Because she bought oranges last time, the proprietress of the fruit shop still had some impressions of Qu Mingcong.

Qu Mingcong showed her the photo of the white cat, and the proprietress still laughed and blamed: "Oh, didn't I say it yesterday, I haven't seen this cat before, why did you come here to ask again?"

Qu Mingcong bent down, pulled out a pet collar from under the fruit shelf, and said to the proprietress, "This is the collar on the cat's neck. If you don't want to help me remember it, why is the collar in your fruit shop?"

The proprietress was taken aback, her expression changed immediately, and she quickly waved her hands to clear the relationship: "I don't know! The dogs in my store have been free-ranging and I haven't taken care of them. I usually like to pick up some junk on the side of the road. Sometimes the pet store in front Throw some unwanted toys into the trash can, and it will dig them out and bring them back to the store, who knows from which corner it dug out this ring..."

After a pause, the face of the proprietress became ugly, "You don't think my dog ​​killed the cat, do you?! Impossible, my dog ​​is very timid, and will run away when it sees a cat! It doesn't even You won't even show your teeth!"

Qu Mingcong: "..."

He understands that everyone thinks their dog doesn't bite.

"I didn't say it was bitten." Qu Mingcong frowned, "My friend's cat disappeared for no reason, and I always have to find where the cat was lost. As for whether it was killed by a person or by a dog, now No one can figure it out. Do you know where the dog usually goes to pick things up?"

The proprietress of the fruit shop looked puzzled: "I have to watch the shop every day, and I have a child to take care of. I'm so busy that I can't control where the dog goes."

Qu Mingcong had no hope at all, so he took the opportunity to make a request: "Then let's look at the monitoring."

The proprietress took out her mobile phone without thinking, "Look, look."

There is no computer in the store, and the app software in the mobile phone can view the surveillance video.

But the proprietress of the fruit shop is obviously more budget-conscious than Qu Mingcong. The camera in the store is cheap, with low pixels and poor resolution, and the shooting range is also very limited. Qu Mingcong looked at it with a frown. , the trajectory of action is chaotic and disorderly.

"Well, I'll take a copy of the video and take this collar away, and I'll leave a phone number for you. If you have any news about the cat, please contact me at any time." Qu Mingcong said to the proprietress with a serious expression , "This cat is really important to my friend. You also have pets at home. If you care about it, you will understand."

"Oh, I can understand, I can understand..." The proprietress nodded distractedly, probably feeling bad luck in her heart.

Qu Mingcong took out the ziplock bag from his backpack, put the collar in it, and left the fruit shop.

As he walked in the direction of the office, he checked the pet collar through the bag.

The collar is made of leather, with a lot of tooth marks left on it. It seems that the mixed-haired dog used it as a teething toy. There are a few white hairs caught in the gap of the buckle of the collar, which should be left by the cat.

"No blood stains." Qu Mingcong turned the collar over and over to check, "It wasn't killed by a dog."

Qiao Yueying hummed lightly, and said, "The collar of the collar is abnormally small, and the leather at the buttonhole has obvious signs of being pulled and deformed. The cat may have been strangled to death."

"The collar is so small, and the collar is not broken..." Qu Mingcong frowned and thought, "How did the dog get the collar off the cat's neck?"

Qiao Yueying was startled, "The cat's head...is it broken?"
