"Great, the world is at peace this time." I smiled and let out a sigh of relief.
"The cultural relics found this time are of great value, and you were injured while helping to solve the case. This is a bonus for you." Uncle Wang said and handed over a check.
"No, no, you can't accept money. The master made the rules before he died." I pushed it back without even looking at it.
"This is not a business, this is a bonus, which is almost the same as a certificate." Uncle Wang held my hand and stuffed the check into my arms.
"No, no, it's not about money. The master said that no money is allowed except for the store's revenue." I picked up the check and threw it back.
"Why are you so stubborn, kid?" Uncle Wang bent over and picked up the check, dumbfounded.
"This is recognition of the good deeds you have done. It is not the ill-gotten gains you made outside. Your master doesn't want you to live a hard life, right?" Zhou Jiaonan stood up.
"That's right, senior brother, with the little revenue from the store, we are really going to starve to death." Heizi is not a money-grubbing person, but right now we really only have money to pay and no income at all.
"That's right, even if you don't eat it, Dahei will still eat it. Just think that this reward is for Dahei. Your master didn't say that Dahei won't be able to accept the award." Zhou Jiaonan avoided Qian's words every time. Mention it so well that I can't refute it at all.
"Then..." I hesitated.
"Keep it." Uncle Wang seized the opportunity and stuffed the check into my pocket.
Everyone immediately changed the subject, without giving me a chance to refuse again, and the matter just passed.
"One hundred thousand? Why so much?" After everyone left, I took out the check and saw the amount.
"Based on the case, it's not a lot, but after all, the ones arrested are corpses. From a formality point of view, only so many can be approved. Uncle Wang originally quoted you 300,000." Zhou Jiaonan said and handed it over. I have a peeled apple.
"This is too much, why don't you return it..." When I think of the bankbook left by the master, the check in front of me is simply a huge sum of money.
"Stop talking nonsense, mother-in-law, where is the courage you used to deal with water corpses?" Zhou Jiaonan suddenly became serious, and I didn't dare to speak at all.
"How have you been these two days, Dahei?" Heizi spoke up in time to come to the rescue.
"What? Can I still abuse it? It is well fed and housed in the bureau, and is treated better than a police dog." Zhou Jiaonan laughed when he mentioned Dahei, and his expression changed really quickly.
"Ah? Don't we live at your house?" I quickly picked up the topic.
"I have to go to work and I won't be home for a long time. I don't want to offend it. There is a dedicated person in charge of it at the police dog base, and I can train it with it. How nice." Zhou Jiaonan explained seriously.
"Dahei is studying further, so we can't be idle." Heizi said that he wanted to exercise, but there was really nothing he could do with his hands wrapped in bandages.
"Actually, we should go back. I always feel a little uneasy." I have felt a little uneasy since I entered the hospital, but I never said it.
But things are so strange. What are you afraid of? As soon as I finished speaking, the phone rang.
"Village Chief? What's wrong? Did something happen to the fish pond again?" I answered the phone in a hurry.
"Our village is fine, but something happened in Lijia Village next door." The village chief's voice was urgent, and it seemed that the matter was serious.
"Don't be anxious, just speak slowly." I quickly comforted him.
"There were continuous heavy rains in Lijia Village a few days ago, and the ancestral grave of Li Changshou's family in Lijia Village was washed away..."
According to rural rules, ancestral graves are the feng shui of the entire family. If they collapse, they cannot be repaired.
Since the ancestors were awakened, it meant that the ancestors were not comfortable living there and wanted to find a good and auspicious day to move the coffin to the grave.
But things didn't go so smoothly. Buried in the ancestral grave of Li Changshou's family was his great-grandfather. When the coffin lid was opened, the body inside showed no signs of decay.
Originally, relocating a grave was not a big deal. The half-immortal in the village could handle it. There was a lot of land in the countryside, so finding a piece of land with good feng shui was not difficult as long as you paid a high price.
But when he opened the coffin and saw that the body was not rotten, the demi-immortal was frightened. The body had been buried underground for decades and was not rotten, but it could turn into a corpse at any time.
The half-immortal naturally requested that the body be cremated to avoid future troubles, but Li Changshou's family did not agree.
The half-immortal had no choice but to ask the Li family to take the body home first, set up a mourning hall, and bury it on a different day.
In fact, this is just a delaying tactic. This matter is beyond the ability of a half-immortal. The incident in our village happened to spread.
The man who retrieved the corpse was known to every household in the village, so the half-immortal wanted to come to me to find a solution.
I wasn't in the hospital, so things were delayed until the half-immortal found the village chief and learned that I had entered the city.
News also came from the Li family. Grandpa's body was missing. Li Changshou's son kept a vigil that night and was still dead.
It is estimated that the great-grandpa faked the corpse, turned into a zombie, and killed people.
"Xiaotian, what should we do? Lijia Village is only a dozen miles away from our village. What will happen if the zombie comes over?" The village chief's voice suddenly turned several years older.
"Village chief, please tell everyone to lock the doors and windows. No matter what happens at night, don't go out. If you have any glutinous rice at home, just scatter some glutinous rice outside the door. I'll be right back." After hanging up the phone, I looked at Zhou Jiaonan.
When the village chief said all this, I turned on the speaker phone, and both she and Heizi were listening.
"But your injuries?" Zhou Jiaonan said with a bitter face.
"I can't control that much anymore. Human life is important. It would be terrible if a decades-old zombie becomes a climate." I said and clenched my fists.
"I'll go with you." Zhou Jiaonan said and stood up.
"What are you doing? This is no joke." I immediately changed my face.
"Didn't the village chief say on the phone that someone was killed in Lijia Village? Whenever human life is involved, our city bureau must send someone to supervise the case. I will call Team Wang right now..."
"These people are really lawless. We didn't receive a report on such a big thing..." Zhou Jiaonan couldn't help complaining as he dialed the phone.
Zhou Jiaonan called Uncle Wang and explained the situation directly.
"I was just thinking about how to tell you about this. I just received the news..." Uncle Wang's somewhat tangled voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Captain Wang, you know why you didn't tell me? I thought the villagers were hiding it and not reporting it." Zhou Jiaonan was the only one who dared to talk to Uncle Wang like this.
"Isn't this considering that Xiaotian and Heizi are injured? I have arranged for people to go there..." Uncle Wang said with some embarrassment.
"Uncle Wang, we have to handle this matter. They are decades-old zombies and are invulnerable at all. Get them away quickly..." I excitedly stepped forward and yelled at Zhou Jiaonan's phone. .
"Then I'm sorry for you. I will arrange for someone to assist you. I will send Dahei to you right now." Uncle Wang's voice came.
"I want to go too." Zhou Jiaonan immediately petitioned.
"Be safe." Uncle Wang said and hung up the phone.
Heizi and I looked at each other and felt something was wrong.
Five minutes later, Uncle Wang's men opened the door and walked in.
"We seem to have been tricked?" Heizi looked at me dumbfounded.
"Be confident and remove the impression." I responded with a wry smile.
"Hey, old ginger is still spicy." Heizi also smiled bitterly.
"Life is at stake, hurry up and get going." I said and pulled off the gauze hanging from my hand.
"Are you crazy?" Before Zhou Jiaonan could hit me, I had already rushed out of the door.
Uncle Wang has already arranged everything. It is inconvenient for Heizi to drive now, so Uncle Wang arranged for someone to drive his car to pick us up.
There were four people in the car behind me. Zhou Jiaonan followed me and squeezed into Heizi's car, and insisted on squeezing into the back row with me and Dahei.
The two cars were speeding one behind the other in the dark night, and Heizi slowly removed the gauze on his hands.
"You two are really desperate..." Zhou Jiaonan couldn't help but cursed while touching Dahei.
"It's just a cracked bone, not broken." I said and waved my arms a few times.
"That's right, a real man, this little injury is nothing." Heizi immediately agreed.
"The two young men are really formidable. I have to rely on you this time." The eldest brother who drove the car said with a smile.
I know this big brother. He was right behind us when we were catching water corpses. He is also a fierce man.
"Brother, what's your last name?" I asked with a smile.
"The surname is Gao, and the name is only Feng." The eldest brother was very polite.
"Brother Feng, my name is Zhao Quan." Heizi reached out his hand.
"Brother Feng, my name is Zhang Tianyi." I also smiled and stepped forward.
"Everyone in the bureau knows your names now." Gao Feng laughed heartily, and he sounded like an open-minded person.
