“Qiqi!”
“Huan Huan!”
"Boss... Ping Ping! Huan Huan!"
On West Coast Avenue, Gu Lang and Wang An kept shouting to both sides, asking everyone they met if they had seen a bluish-white husky and a badger wearing a camouflage round hat. However, after searching all the way, they found nothing.
In front of the hotel on the south side, Han Daxia, who had a phone number on a certain street corner, also began to search around the hotel.
He was startled by a badger that took the tracker from his suitcase, and he hurriedly opened the room to check carefully, but found nothing. He began to wonder if he had really dropped a tracker in one of his clothes, and even opened a monitoring software to try to connect.
Old Han was full of regret at this time. He had trusted the badger too much in the past and didn't care where he ran to.
It was not until he received a call from a salted fish that he realized that it was okay for the badger to run around by himself, and he would not suffer any loss. But when he went out, he also brought a "dog" with him, and that dog was not a worry-free owner.
"Boss! Qiqi! Where are you? Come out quickly!"
After searching around the outside of the hotel and asking the waiters who were present at the time, Lao Han followed Wolf Xiaosi's original route and walked towards the residential area northeast of the hotel, shouting as he walked.
Just beside the road leading to the residential area, Wang Ping was standing under a tree, looking at a small puddle of water with a look of resistance on his face. Old Han had just shouted a few times when he passed by, but the badger ignored him.
He won't show up until Wolf Xiaosi is found.
It was a very simple logic. At the moment, it was Lao Han who lost him and the wolf Xiao Si. But if Wang Ping showed up at this moment, it would be him who lost a certain wolf. The order of blame was very clear, so he would not rush to take the blame, because that would confirm his behavior of "losing the dog".
After hesitating for a while, the furry figure wearing a small round hat under the tree hidden by the bushes sighed, slumped his shoulders, and slowly put his nose close to the almost dried water stain.
“Ugh~”
After just one sniff, Wang Ping immediately turned his face away and vomited. At the same time, he determined that a certain wolf came from here and even made "marks" along the way.
Looking up in the direction he came from, Wang Ping scratched his scalp under his hat.
Based on his understanding of Wolf Xiao Si, although this wolf cub was a bit cheerful, he was not the kind of stupid dog that would chase a car for a long distance. If he really left, there must be a reason.
Of course, as a dog (wolf), this reason might be very strange to Wang Ping. Maybe he was hungry, or maybe he saw a pretty little bitch, or maybe he was itchy and wanted to find a tree that he liked to rub against.
"The little bastard is quite smart. He knows how to hide in the bushes..."
Wang Ping followed the wolf's route and shook his head in self-mockery. Every animal has its own way of survival imprinted in its genes. It may be simple, but it must be very practical.
However, when he saw another "water stain" appearing under a tree less than 50 meters away, Wang Ping suddenly felt that Wolf Xiaosi's way of survival might not really come from genes.
"Who did you learn this method of peeing to make a mark from? This little thing even thought of leaving a signpost for me? Is he bragging..."
Wang Ping stood in front of the second puddle of water. He didn't need to smell it deliberately. As soon as he got close, he knew it was left by Wolf Xiaosi again. Regardless of whether this guy left the mark consciously or not, this behavior was too smart in the eyes of a certain badger.
A gust of wind blew by, and the treetops around swayed and made a rustling sound, which was somewhat like the bamboo waves in Shengjiawu. It was just a flash of inspiration for a moment, and the badger suddenly stopped, looking at the neatly trimmed small-leaf shrubs behind him like a long ridge in doubt. Inexplicably, he thought of the tea ridges in Shengjiawu.
Thinking of how Wolf Xiaosi and Dahei would patrol the mountains every day, running in such tea ridges, Wang Ping pulled the corners of his mouth, his furry face seemed to be crying and laughing. He finally understood why Dahei could so accurately distinguish which tea ridges he had walked through and which he had not walked through.
"Damn it! I'm never going to drink that tea again!"
Wang Ping initially thought that Xiao Si might be hungry and ran back to ask Lao Han or Gu Lang for food. However, after passing several "water" stains along the way back, Wang Ping discovered that the guy's route suddenly turned east and bypassed the hotel where Lao Han lived.
After chasing for another 800 meters, we saw the sign of an apartment hotel. Just below the logo on the left side of the hotel door, the water stains on the cement base at the corner were particularly eye-catching.
Wang Ping was really worried about the wolf. He was too bold to go to the door of someone's hotel to urinate.
This place called Sorrento Beach Holiday Inn is relatively quiet, surrounded by gardens, and there are few passing vehicles. It is indeed much more comfortable than where Old Han lives.
Wang Ping avoided the security guard at the door and searched around the hotel. Eventually, he found that the scent left by Wolf Xiaosi came directly from the door. There was even a gray plum blossom footprint left on the doormat outside the lobby.
"Wolf Xiaosi, your uncle!"
Looking at the security guard standing at the door with an electric baton, Wang Ping racked his brains to figure out how this guy got in. Did the security guard suddenly go blind when it approached
Seeing a group of people walking towards this side talking and laughing from the direction of the beach in the distance, a badger sighed, turned around and ran to the side of the hotel, found a position that looked like a stairwell window, and climbed up.
In the restaurant on the first floor of the hotel, Yuan Xiaoxiao found a corner seat and sat outside to block the wolf squatting on the chair inside. She pushed a plate of cut raw beef over. She touched the wolf's ear and pinched a piece of meat with her little hand and handed it to its mouth.
"Eat! If it's not enough, I'll order more!"
Just now in the room, when it hugged her thigh and opened its mouth to call, Yuan Xiaoxiao knew it was hungry. This posture of begging for food was exactly the same as when it was a child.
I originally wanted to take it to the supermarket to buy a bag of dog food, but suddenly I remembered that it was not a dog at all, so I carried it to the restaurant, and after the waiter confirmed again and again, I ordered two plates of "0-degree rare" steaks.
Wolf Xiaosi stuck out his tongue and licked the meat into his mouth, his eyes narrowed with pleasure.
It’s so nice to live without eating dog food!
On West Coast Avenue, there were fewer and fewer people on the beach. They all began to gather in the restaurants along the road. The street lights began to light up, but the two were still nowhere to be found. Gu Lang helped Wang An sit on a bench by the roadside. He sat beside her without saying a word. The atmosphere was a little depressing.
"Don't be too..."
Wang An hesitated for a moment, then held Gu Lang's hand and spoke to comfort him.
She didn't know what her mood was. If it was a pet she had raised before, she would probably print a few missing pet notices, post them, and go home to sleep. But this badger and this "dog" were different to Gu Lang, and even now they were different to her.
Just as he was thinking, his hands were empty. Gu Lang suddenly raised his hand and patted his waist, regretting, "I should have given the boss a mobile phone earlier! It's too inconvenient to contact him now!"
"What?" Wang An opened his mouth wide and looked blankly at a certain expressionless person with a bandaged face.
Could it be that this child has been so traumatized that his brain has gone blank
“My cell phone!”
Gu Lang said as a matter of course: "Register a WeChat account for the boss, and next time I encounter this kind of situation, ask him to send me his location!"
"I...you..." Wang An's mouth opened wider and wider.
At the same time, in the corridor on the third floor of a hotel.
Wang Ping stood outside a room, looking at the wallpaper at the door that was soaked with a pool of indescribable liquid, his mouth wide open.
"This naughty kid! Isn't he afraid of being beaten to death..."
