From the time he woke up in the middle of the night to the time when bright sunlight came through the curtains, Han Daxia could not fall asleep again and kept sitting on the bed smoking.
Until there was no more cigarettes in the cigarette box, he still couldn't remember what he said to Jerry last night, or how he got back to the hotel. He only remembered that he was in a bad mood and wanted to sit in the bar for a while, but he ran into Jerry again. Then Jerry fulfilled his promise to buy him a drink, and he didn't remember what happened next.
Old Han's heart was filled with confusion and fear at this moment.
This is ridiculous! He is an experienced detective, but he still made such a stupid mistake and drank himself into oblivion. Fortunately, that "Jerry" was just a stranger who didn't affect his plan at all, otherwise he would have cried too late.
The room was filled with green smoke mixed with the smell of alcohol from the previous night. Old Han retched for no apparent reason, and hurriedly got up from the bed and walked to the window.
Pulling aside the curtains and opening the windows, fresh air with a hint of moisture rushed into the room, and the white steam dispersed the floating smoke. Han Daxia took a deep breath, and his mind became clear and his heart suddenly relaxed. It was as if after venting, the pressure was much less.
Perhaps it was because the investigation and punishment from the headquarters in the past few months had brought him tremendous pressure, coupled with the fact that the tracking of Yuan Xiaoxiao was not going smoothly, which made him feel shrouded in a haze and always wanted to vent, so he walked into the bar for some unknown reason.
"Tsk~ what kind of crappy wine is so strong..."
Someone shook his head and laughed at himself, then subconsciously reached for his waist. Suddenly, he realized that he was only wearing underwear and that his cigarette was finished, so he turned around to look for his pants and prepared to go out to buy cigarettes.
After walking a few steps with his head down, Old Han suddenly stopped and looked at his "brand new" underwear, his eyes gradually narrowed. If I remember correctly, this pair should have been placed in the suitcase. Inexplicably, Jerry's smoking posture with his fingers pinched in orchids appeared in his mind again.
After being stunned for about 5 seconds, someone suddenly strode into the bathroom and posed in a shameful crab-like posture in front of the mirror, as if checking something.
At the eastern foot of the Belfede Mountains, the rising sun shone through the trees, chasing two figures walking along the river. In front of the two people, a blue-white "Husky" would occasionally run out far away, then run back happily.
The branches and leaves of the bushes at the edge of the woods kept brushing against it, and some of them would hit the face of a furry figure on its back before it could get rid of them. Every time this happened, a whimpering sound would be heard in the woods, as if someone had been beaten again.
"Poor Xiao Si, always gets beaten"
"Forget it, the boss didn't use any strength at all"
"How can I bear to hit my own son?"
"Ze Ming of all schools of thought gave the anchor rocket x5..."
"Why do I feel like Xiao Si has grown into a husky?"
"Are you sure that Gu Laosan picked up a wolf? Did he make a mistake?"
"Little Si is barely one year old, so he is a bit curious."
"Fatty Yuanbao rewarded the anchor with 9 airplanes..."
"She's getting more and more beautiful. The food at Third Brother's house seems to be good."
The tablet on Gu Laosan's chest occasionally gave out tips, but someone was too busy to look at it. There were slippery tree roots and grass underfoot, and one could easily fall if he wasn't careful.
Australia is a country with many snakes, and they have encountered quite a few along the way. He and Wang An kept hitting the bushes with their walking sticks as they walked. They dared not walk too fast, lest they "hurt the snakes and themselves". It was hard to say whether Wolf Xiao Si was beaten because of this.
Someone's face was no longer swollen, which showed that the fall last night was not serious. However, Gu Laosan was still listless when he got up early in the morning, looking haggard and hungover, as if he had slept like a dog last night.
Wang An, on the other hand, looked very energetic and seemed to have had a good rest. Wang Ping was originally surprised at how she did it, but when he saw her carefully putting a pair of noise-isolating earplugs close to her body while packing up, he suddenly realized. Such an important thing should indeed be put away properly.
After walking westward for nearly two hours, when the sun was getting stronger and the dew should have dispersed, the moisture in front of me became thicker. At the same time, I heard the sound of flowing water, as if there was a waterfall in front of me.
In the Grampians Park, there are as many waterfalls as there are cliffs suitable for rock climbing. Waterfalls are inseparable from cliffs and always appear in pairs. Wang An’s first goal was the waterfall rock wall 5 kilometers west of the campsite. This is also one of the few steep rock walls on this side of the eastern slope.
After walking nearly a hundred meters, the sound of the water became more and more obvious. Wolf Xiao Si rushed out again, and after only a few seconds, Gu Lang and Wang An heard the "gulp" sound of a heavy object falling into the water. Then a certain wolf howled again, but this time the howl was much more miserable, accompanied by the "pa pa" sound of slapping.
The two of them took a few quick steps and just as they turned around a patch of tall and lush bushes, there was nothing in front of them.
Directly in front of the sight is a relatively wide grassland. A huge rock wall emits dazzling white light in the sun, and white water curtains nearly ten meters wide are scattered on it, like fairy dust hanging from above.
Below the water curtain, a badminton-shaped semicircular pool stretched out to the edge of the forest, connecting to the river they had come from. On a granite slab that extended diagonally downward into the water, Wang Ping, who was soaking wet, was pinning down the equally soaking wolf, Xiao Si, and beating him.
Wang Ping was so angry that he almost died. This idiot who didn't have the face of a wolf, was just having fun everywhere, but he actually "cheated his father". He just ran too far and braked suddenly on this stone slab. Wang Ping saw that the opportunity was not good and jumped down in a hurry. As a result, when he had no place to support himself in the air, a wolf suddenly turned around and bit his clothes.
The result is predictable. The badger didn't even have the chance to struggle before being dragged into the water by the creature.
"What a beast!"
Wang Ping waved his wet claws and slapped a wolf on the face, making loud slapping sounds and splashing water everywhere, as if he was going to "kill his own relatives for the sake of justice."
After exchanging a glance with Gu Laosan, Wang An asked with a look of distrust, "Are you sure you want him to take the photo for you later?"
"Don't worry!" Gu Lang walked around the pond, put his backpack on the grass, looked up at the waterfall in front of him and said, "The boss just has a bad temper, but he is still very reliable!"
On the opposite side, on the hundred-meter-high rock wall, brown shale and slate are piled up in distinct layers, like a thousand-layer cake. The water on both sides of the waterfall flows horizontally through the cracks in the rocks, making the entire rock wall appear moist, and sparse weeds and small-leaf shrubs grow in the cracks.
The two ignored the guy who was "beating the child" and moved closer to the bottom of the waterfall. The sound of water splashing in their ears suddenly became much louder, but it was not accompanied by a huge roar like many large waterfalls, but a "swish" sound like a water gun. After standing there for a while, Gu Lang felt a layer of water mist on his face.
"Follow me now, and pay attention to my movements. Don't rush. This rock wall is full of water, it will be very slippery. Safety first!"
Wang An dragged over the backpack and took out the safety belt, rope, and miscellaneous hanging plates and protectors from it, while instructing Gu Laosan.
A certain salted fish opened his mouth and looked at the almost vertical rock wall, nodding subconsciously.
Although this rock wall looks like it is full of gullies less than one meter high, there are places to gain leverage everywhere. However, it is precisely because of these gullies that the water flow of the waterfall is dispersed over the entire rock wall, and there is a danger of sliding down if you are not careful.
This is just like how there are never example questions on the test paper that can be directly applied with formulas. In comparison, the rock climbing wall in the gym is really an easy-to-scoring question, it is extremely simple.
Behind the two men, Wolf Xiao Si was crouching dejectedly, peeking at a badger standing in front of him twisting his clothes, mumbling in his throat, seemingly unconvinced. Then Wang An grabbed its front legs and dragged it aside, ignoring its struggles and putting a safety belt on it.
Gu Lang had just fastened the buckle on his waist, and when he saw Wang An's action, he said, "I'll carry it..."
"you?"
Wang An glanced at him sideways. Although he only said one word, the mockery contained in his eyes was like a flood that overwhelmed the salted fish and made him unable to say the rest of his words.
"What's wrong with me?" After being stunned for a while, Gu Laosan became agitated like a cat whose tail was stepped on. His face turned red and he angrily said, "Don't look down on me! Although my skills are poor, I have good physical strength!"
“Ha!” Wang An sneered, tugged hard on the belt of a wolf, and said without turning his head: “We can talk about this when you reach the top of the mountain!”
A badger that had just approached, shaking off its wet clothes, was stunned, shook its water-filled ears, and looked puzzled on its furry face.
"Why do I seem to hear a car passing by?"
