People are in the Ark, and they become Gray Shu at the beginning

Of course, after being blocked under the bed last time, even though there was not much time left to purchase goods today, before visiting Shi Huaiya's house, Pado still went to the Guard Bureau to confirm the situation.

Although she still had a way to get out of that situation, she didn't want to go through it again if possible!

……

Because it was getting late, Paddo chose to make quick decisions this time. After confirming that someone was indeed at work, she headed straight for her destination without hesitation.

"Well, the old rules can you ..."

"Meow~"

After Padu came to a dead corner outside Shi Huaiya's yard, he pointed at the high wall in front of him and originally planned to let the can standing on his shoulder go in and explore first.

However, before she could finish her words, a fat cat had already climbed over the wall impatiently and skillfully and slipped in...

"Can, you...really can't wait and seem very familiar with the process!"

Afterwards, Padu checked the can to confirm that no one was in the villa, and then she nimbly climbed in. When she landed, she even had time to gently pull the brim of her hat.

After taking a quick look around and finding no danger, Padu gently turned the key in her hand, walked towards the villa, and opened the door skillfully.

As usual, after entering, Maomao closed the door carefully and quickly to prevent people outside from noticing anything unusual.

However, because he was too skilled and had succeeded many times, Pado, who had become a little "lax", did not notice the small cameras in every corner of the yard that reflected a barely detectable light in the sunset.

……

This time after entering Shi Huaiya's villa, Paduo did not stop or hesitate at all, and went straight to someone's utility room with a clear goal.

After all, here

It's been such a long time since I started shopping, and there's really nothing that the cats are interested in anymore, but for the sake of the mission... I still have to try my best.

ps: I don't want to stay up late, but my brain is getting slower and slower. I'm going to sleep. I'll try to adjust my schedule tomorrow. I've been having minor problems lately.

Chapter 23 The Angry Little Tiger

Although Padu noticed the signs of cleaning after entering the house, she had seen the same thing happen before, so she didn't pay much attention to it until...

"..."

Padu looked at the spotlessly clean, neatly organized storage room in front of her and fell into deep thought.

To be honest, the reason why cats liked to come to the utility room before was because it was not so tidy, and there were always some forgotten small items dropped or left in the corners.

But now... this place is so clean and tidy that she has no other ideas at all...

"I feel like there's something weird here today... Is it because it was cleaned too cleanly?"

When Padu came to her senses and faced such a clean room, she not only had no thoughts, but it even aroused a strange feeling in her heart that had been suppressed and covered by the sense of familiarity since she entered the yard.

"Forget it, just take one, let's go quickly, can."

Considering that she had always been lucky, after quickly exiting the utility room, Paduo chose to follow her faint feeling. She shouted to Can who was wandering around the room.

"Meow~"

Upon hearing the call, Can stopped running around and quickly turned around and rushed to Pado's side, following her.

Having decided to leave here quickly, Padu did not continue to choose. She just quickly walked to the cabinet where Shi Huaiya stored cat food and canned cat food, and took a can from an inconspicuous corner.

"Well... just consider it a small surprise and compensation."

Padu glanced at the expensive imported cat food in her hand, stroking her chin in confusion for a moment.

Then, as if he had made up his mind, he took out two small objects from his space with great pain and placed them in the hidden place where he had just taken the cat canned food.

As for why it was placed in a hidden place, it was of course because Maomao didn't want Shi Huaiya to find it so early. As far as she knew, this house was only cleaned and tidied once in a while.

By the time she sorted out the things next time and they were discovered, she would probably have completed the task long ago.

After doing all this, Pado didn't waste any more time. He simply took a quick look and made sure there was no problem before running away.

……

The moment she left Shi Huaiya's yard with skillful and light movements, the slight strange feeling in Paduo's heart disappeared quietly, as if it had never appeared.

"..."

This subtle change in her heart made Padu, who was standing by the wall, couldn't help but raise her eyebrows slightly.

If she hadn't paid much attention to it when she first entered the yard because she was so familiar with it and there was nothing unusual on the surface, now she was very sure that there was definitely something in Shi Huaiya's house...

As for what it was, Padu was not very clear. However, judging from her memory, it should not be something exaggerated, not even a threat.

After all, if it was something really exaggerated, the cat's intuition would have given a warning long ago, instead of just a slight feeling of weirdness.

"Well...how about going in again?"

Although she felt that the extra things in Shi Huaiya's house this time would not pose a big threat to her, Paduo was afraid of trouble... She didn't want to deal with these people head-on at all.

So now she has begun to seriously consider the feasibility of sneaking in again to "purchase goods" and complete the task directly.

However, before Padu could put this idea into practice, the sound of unlocking was heard from the gate of Shi Huaiya's yard not far away.

"Pity……"

After discovering that the real owner had returned, Padu was forced to stop thinking about it, and without stopping at all, he quickly and carefully left the villa area with the canned food.

-----------------

"Really? You actually drove me back."

Shi Huaiya returned to her home and found nothing unusual, so she "complained" in a low voice while changing her slippers.

In fact, normally Little Tiger would not get off work so early as today, but she had a day off today... She went there to work overtime on her own initiative, but not long after, she was sent back by Xingxiong (persuaded) and Chen (angry).

"Forget it, let me see what to eat tonight."

Although it was a pity for Shi Huaiya that she didn't continue to work there, but now that she was back, she would definitely not waste time and give up the opportunity to relax.

……

After leaving Shi Huaiya's house, Paduo did not go out for a stroll like before. Instead, after buying some food, she returned to her place with the canned food.

Because she planned to have a good sleep after dinner, and she would go to the slums again at midnight tonight. As for what she was going to do, of course, it was to see the deployment of the forces over there at night and give those people a little warning.

----------------

At night, Shi Huaiya’s villa——

Compared to Paddo who had a very good sleep,

Shi Huaiya, lying on the bed in her villa, was unable to sleep.

Staying up late yesterday and getting up late today had already disrupted her daily routine a little, making her not feel sleepy at all even though she should have been sleeping.

"what……"

Shi Huaiya, who had been lying on the bed with her eyes closed for a long time, finally couldn't bear it anymore and sat up.

Although her mind told her that she should rest now, because she had to go out in plain clothes to complete a mission tomorrow morning, but... she really couldn't sleep.

"I can't sleep at all, let's go exercise for a while..."

Shi Huaiya, who was sitting on the bed, reached out and rubbed her eyes gently. Muttering something, she lifted the quilt and got out of bed.

Shi Huaiya has sports equipment at home, and there is even a special room for them, although they are not used very often.

Because even if she is as active as she is at work, most of the time she is too tired to exercise after get off work...

However, when Shi Huaiya had just left the room and had not yet turned on the lights in the corridor on the second floor, a faint red light in the living room downstairs caught her attention.

"...Come to think of it, I don't think I have checked today's surveillance yet, but in such a short time, no one should take action, right?" Shi Huaiya, who was standing in the dark corridor, looked at the only red light in the house and said in a low voice with some uncertainty in her tone.

"Well, forget it. I can't sleep now anyway, so I might as well go and take a look." After weighing the pros and cons in her mind, Shi Huaiya chose the latter between exercise and watching videos.

Then she poured herself a cup of hot water and went to the study room where the computer was placed to check the new surveillance video that was released this afternoon.

Half an hour later——

Shi Huaiya, who had quickly browsed through all the videos, could be said to be completely unable to sleep at this moment.

"PADOPHILIS!!!"

Shi Huaiya stared at the two small items in her hands with a dark face, which she had just taken out from the cabinet downstairs where canned cat food was kept, and said with gritted teeth.

The two objects were a silver coin with a cat's paw printed on it that sparkled under the light and a beautifully wrapped candy.

ps: This one took me a long time, another four hours, and I revised it several times. I am a little afraid to write anymore...

Also, do you have any methods for reverse sleep and work schedules? Even if I don’t write at night, I can’t fall asleep before 2 o’clock... I feel sleepy, but I can’t fall asleep when I lie in bed.

Chapter 24 Association and Rage

The next morning, the Guards Bureau——

"Hey, good morning, Shi Huaiya...?"

After noticing the arrival of her friend and colleague, Xingxiong subconsciously greeted him as usual. However, when her eyes swept across someone's dark eyes, she gradually became silent...

"Did you not sleep well last night?"

When Shi Huaiya was asked this by Xing Xiong, she thought about what happened yesterday again. A trace of resentment could not help but appear on her tired face. Then she answered with gritted teeth: "Nothing, I just encountered a little thing..."

"Um...if you are really feeling uncomfortable, you can stay in the Guard Bureau and rest. Leave the plainclothes investigation this morning to me and Lao Chen." Xingxiong said a little worriedly as he looked at someone in front of him who didn't look like he was encountering a small matter.

"No need, I'm fine. I can go with you anytime." Hearing this, Shi Huaiya shook her head quickly and said in a firm tone.

Although Shi Huaiya couldn't sleep last night because of someone...but in her opinion, what happened yesterday was still within the scope of private affairs, and she didn't like to let her private affairs affect her normal work.

Before Xingxiong could continue to ask worriedly, Chen, who was looking at the information not far away, turned around and said in a calm tone:

"If there is a problem, go and treat it quickly, otherwise it will hinder us later."

Although Chen's tone of voice was calm, it didn't mean the same thing to Shi Huaiya. She got furious in an instant.

"?!"

"You bastard! Who are you holding back?"

"I'm talking to you. If you have a problem, get it treated right away."

"You're the one with the problem, Dragon!"

"I'm not like a certain barbecued pork cat who is listless early in the morning." As he said this, Chen looked Shi Huaiya up and down with a meaningful look.

"you!"

"Okay, okay, Lao Chen and Shi Huaiya, stop arguing." Looking at the two people who were about to fight, Xing Xiong stopped them and comforted them with a helpless expression and skillful movements.

"Old Chen, you have read the information, so take this opportunity to prepare a little."

After comforting Chen, Xingxiong picked up the document on the table and handed it to Shi Huaiya, saying: "As for you, Shi Huaiya, take a look at this first."

"There's new news so soon, let me see." Shi Huaiya sighed softly after taking the document in front of her. Then she lowered her head and looked at the document in her hand carefully.

……

"?"

"Wait, the content in here...it can't be what I thought!" After a moment, after reading the contents of the document, Shi Huaiya turned her head with a surprised expression and looked at Xingxiong, waiting for her answer.

"Yes, the content of the document in your hand is the letter left by the suspected theft. It is a letter left for all the people she helped in the slums." Looking at the surprised friend in front of him, Xingxiong nodded first, then explained.

“He should be

I noticed the friction and conflict between those people and us yesterday, so I went to various conspicuous places last night and posted this [letter] to remind those people. "

"This... this intelligence capability is quite strong. Is it really a team? Or is there an informant in the slums?"

"But, what good will it do for him to remind those people like this? Shouldn't the people in the slums be more resistant to us, the better?"

After listening to Xingxiong's explanation, Shi Huaiya paused for a moment, and then raised his own doubts.

"Regarding your last question, Lao Chen and I also analyzed it before you came, and in the end we all agreed that it should still be [care]!" Having said this, Xingxiong paused for a moment, and then continued to explain:

"The suspect must be concerned about the people in the slums. After all, if they fight with us, they will be in trouble even if they are not right... So in order to prevent the situation from escalating, this [letter] we saw today was issued."

"Hmm... this guess is reasonable. If he was really a heartless person, he wouldn't send things to the slums to help others, not to mention that he sent things so many times..."

At the end, Shi Huaiya, who was analyzing seriously, suddenly thought of something, her pupils suddenly shrank, and a horrible guess emerged in her mind.

"What's wrong? Did you think of something?"

Looking at Shi Huaiya's sudden change of expression, Xingxiong frowned slightly and couldn't help but ask.

However, Shi Huaiya, who was now sorting out and connecting various clues in her mind, did not respond to Xingxiong's question...
