Some meteorites are still very valuable. Some meteorites contain metals that are rare or even non-existent on Earth, and their value far exceeds diamonds and gold.
Of course, most meteorites are not that valuable.
Suddenly, the cat made a warning humming sound. Luke turned his head to look and found that it was standing on a big rock, looking at the stream with all its might.
He smiled.
It's rare for this old dog, the US dollar, to have some childish moments. Is this a confrontation with the fish in the river
There are no water snakes or crocodiles in this shallow stream.
His keen sense of smell did not detect any scent of these two dangerous creatures nearby.
Selina didn't care too much. In her sight, she just saw the US dollar yelling at a fish.
Dogs are like this sometimes. If the wind blows a plastic bag, they can fight with the air for a long time.
When Meidao was young, he also did a lot of similar stupid things.
After Selena finished washing up, she walked back by herself and the two of them started to eat breakfast.
Suddenly there was a splash by the river. They both turned their heads and saw that the dollar was no longer on the big rock.
Just by the sound of water, you could tell it had jumped into the stream.
Luke wowed, "The US dollar seems to be very lively today."
Selina was annoyed: "It must be because he hasn't hung out with me for too long. Isn't he afraid of getting sick?"
Luke: "Not really. The temperature is quite high now. Just wipe it dry as soon as it comes back."
The two chatted for a while, and then they heard the sound of US dollars splashing in the creek.
However, its body was blocked by the big rock and the two could not see it.
Luke didn't care too much.
The water depth of the stream here is only 20 centimeters, which is not enough to flood the US dollar.
Sure enough, two minutes later, Meidao emerged from the big rock with a lively fish in his mouth.
Both of them: … Lunch hasn’t even started yet, what’s the point of a dog biting a live fish
As a result, before the two men opened their mouths to greet the US dollar, the dog seemed to want to take credit. It opened its mouth and the fish slipped out of its mouth again, fell into the water, and quickly slipped away.
Luke laughed, "Well, we don't have to eat the saliva of the US dollar for lunch."
Selina shook her head helplessly: "I don't like eating this kind of fish."
Over there, the fish that was about to be caught flew away, and could only trot back with its big head and tail drooping, its fur all wet and dripping with water madly.
Luke was quick-witted and ran a few meters away.
The next moment, the US dollar emptied itself out.
Countless water droplets flew out and got all over Selina's body and face because she didn't react fast enough.
She yelled angrily, "Mei Dao! Come here."
The US dollar moved closer to her tremblingly, but Selina grabbed it and said, "Luke, get me a big towel. This guy is prone to getting sick."
Luke smiled and nodded, then quickly took out a towel and handed it over.
Selena was wiping Dollar's wet hair, whispering to him that he was a bad guy and had just done something very bad.
Meidao looked at his little master with an innocent face, making a whimpering sound from the tip of his nose, and stretched out his big tongue to lick her.
This flattering behavior was stopped by Selina: "As a punishment, you are not allowed to act like a spoiled child this morning."
Meidao tilted his head, stuck out his tongue, and looked at his little master sadly.
The two were delayed for twenty minutes because they were interrupted by the plunge of the US dollar.
After quickly finishing breakfast and packing up their things, the two people and the dog walked at a normal pace towards the direction where the meteorite fell last night.
Today, Selena was in a much better mood, at least she often talked to Meidao beside her.
The US dollar is a loyal listener who only listens and does not refute.
Luke did not interrupt the conversation between the man and the dog. He just took a few steps ahead and walked in front.
However, after they had walked for only half an hour and turned a bend, they saw two men standing in the distance on the mountain road.
Luke looked at the two people's attire, coughed lightly, put his left hand behind his back, and gestured to Selina.
As he coughed lightly, Selina immediately looked at him, saw the gesture he made, and stopped immediately.
Looking at the two men in the distance, Selina whispered, "FBI? Why are they here? They're not chasing some fugitives."
Luke also whispered: "I'll go up and ask, you wait here."
Selina nodded, indicating that she understood.
With Luke's fighting ability, he is certainly not afraid of going alone.
Selena's delay was also a warning to the target, lest some people have the illusion that they could get rid of both of them at once.
Of course, they did not suspect that there was anything wrong with the two men wearing FBI tactical vests; they were just cooperating out of habit.
The FBI over there also noticed Luke and the other man. When they saw him approaching, one of them took a few steps forward and raised his hand to signal them to stop. "We are on a mission. There are dangerous fugitives sneaking into this area. It's not safe. You'd better return immediately and don't stay in the mountains."
Luke stopped and said, "We are from the ranch on the mountain. Can I ask if the fugitive has gone to the ranch?"
The FBI guy didn't seem impatient at all, he just shook his head and said, "No, we are already searching for him, you don't have to worry. But leave the mountain area as soon as possible to avoid danger."
Luke smiled and nodded: "Thanks for the reminder, we'll go back now." Then he turned and left.
After meeting up with Selina, Luke repeated what the FBI agent had said. Selina just listened and nodded, and then the two turned around and walked back the way they came.
After walking several hundred meters, Selina finally signaled Luke with her eyes.
Luke nodded: "What do you want to ask?"
Selina: "Are they here to look for the meteorite?"
Luke nodded: "I think so. As for the fugitives, we can go back and ask Robert."
As a small town with a population of 2,000, Shackelford has a staff of ten ordinary police officers who provide services to dozens of farms and ranches around Shackelford.
If it is an ordinary small town, such as the Prosperity Town in Arizona, there are only two sheriffs, one chief and one deputy, for a population of just over a thousand.
Although the town of Shackelford is small, the dozens of farms and ranches surrounding it are not small, and some of them are very big businesses, so they can afford to hire so many police officers.
Therefore, the ranch area is also under Robert's jurisdiction. If the FBI comes to hunt down suspects, they usually have to communicate with Robert in advance, otherwise they deserve to be in trouble.
The two men and the dog walked for a while and when they got close to the edge of the mountain, Meidao suddenly started to tremble all over and made a whimpering sound.
Luke and Selina looked at the same time and saw that it seemed to be in great pain. It slowly lay on the ground, then suddenly rolled over, and the whimpering sound in its mouth turned into a barking sound.
Selina was shocked: "Mei Dao, what's wrong with you?"
He frowned and pulled her aside: "Let me take a look." Then he squatted down and pressed down the struggling US dollar with his hand.
