In the room, the dim light flickered a few times, just like someone's eyes.
There are almost no large hydroelectric or thermal power plants in Africa. Most areas rely on wind and solar power for power supply. It is expensive, but also unstable and often blackouts. Therefore, many high-end hotels have their own diesel generators.
But the military camp is better after all. There are not such strict restrictions on electricity usage, so we don’t have to work in the dark.
Gu Laosan would rather walk in the dark than see this scene. There was no joy of reunion, only fear in his heart.
The man and the badger stared at each other for about ten seconds.
He couldn't call for help to kill Wang Ping, but if he did, it was hard to say whether Wang Ping would kill him.
After a fierce struggle between asking someone to capture a badger and send it to the zoo and continuing to serve as someone else's subordinate, Gu Laosan decisively chose the latter.
It was definitely not because he was afraid of death or a coward or anything like that. It was just that they had faced poachers together before, and Gu Laosan felt that he still had feelings for Wang Ping.
So after being stunned for more than ten seconds, someone showed a smile that was uglier than crying, raised his hand and said hello: "Hi! What a coincidence, you are here too!"
"Yo~ You're pretty calm..."
Wang Ping laughed inwardly, yawned, turned over and went back to sleep. As expected, sleeping in bed is more pleasant!
But that night, someone in the lower bunk probably won't be able to sleep.
The next morning, when it was still light and someone was still drooling over his sleep, there was a knock on the door.
After about ten minutes, the room was still quiet.
Now the colonel and several policemen outside the door all have dark lines on their faces.
“Knock knock knock…”
The accompanying soldier curled his lips under the colonel's gaze and continued knocking on the door.
Someone in the lower bunk smacked his lips, turned over and covered his head with a military blanket, leaving only his buttocks facing the door. Wang Ping in the upper bunk moved his ears again and again. When the soldier knocked on the door for the third time, a badger grabbed his unnecessary pillow and threw it fiercely at the door.
"Bang!"
The knocking sound disappeared.
Outside the door, a group of people led by the colonel seemed to feel the leaves swirling overhead, creating a desolate background.
"Forget it! Why don't we check the car first..."
The colonel wanted to find a way out to avoid being embarrassed after breaking into the house.
A group of people and guards came to the location where the SUV was parked. As soon as they approached, a foul odor hit them in the face, which seemed to be stronger than yesterday.
Of course, the sheriffs and colonels were unwilling to get close, so Kumi and Atugo, who came as witnesses, had to put on masks and rubber gloves with sad faces and ran to check the car.
Soon, a pile of messy junk was found.
There was a small piece of thorn broken off near the footrest, an empty can that had grown hair and was thrown under the seat, strips of bandages with blood and dirt on them, golden hair that looked like it belonged to some large animal, various broken bones in the corners, and a small piece of fur that looked like it belonged to a hyena's ear.
As more and more messy things were turned out of the car, everyone's eyelids twitched.
What made everyone present feel most disgusted was a roasted deer leg covered with small insects that was found in the deepest part under the back seat.
The crispy yellow color on the surface of the deer leg was still there, but when he lifted the skin, Atugo spat it out.
His vomiting was like a domino effect. Soon, there were several figures bending over and vomiting beside the SUV.
"This guy is definitely the sloppiest foreigner I have ever seen, no doubt about it!" Sheriff Blake from Karatu complained wildly.
The colonel didn't vomit.
From the beginning, he held his nose and refused to get close. At this moment, looking at the "elites" who were staggering with disgust, the colonel frowned and asked, "Did you find anything unusual?"
It was extremely disgusting, but I found it... several black uncles thought at the same time.
“There are bullet holes!”
At this time, a soldier who came along to join in the fun noticed it and pointed at the seat back of the driver's seat.
After all, they were soldiers who were often thrown into the woods for training. What disgusting things had they not seen? So compared to the police who spent all day on the streets issuing fines, they noticed the difference first.
At this point, the police officers felt ashamed. Atugo and Kumi were glared at by the bosses of their own and other families.
The colonel looked at the soldier who was speaking with approval and walked closer to check.
It's hard to tell if you don't look closely because it's located near the lower left edge of the seat.
However, in such a smelly environment, only soldiers who can eat earthworms raw in the wild can conduct such a detailed inspection.
Following the direction of the bullet's trajectory, they found the bullet that hit the backrest on the back seat, which also confirmed that this was the car that Artugo and Kumi encountered at the time.
"But this position..." The colonel pointed at the soldier who had just spoken, "You sit in it and make an evasive move!"
The soldier did as he was told, and several people gathered around to watch.
As usual, the soldier sat in the driver's seat, holding the steering wheel with one hand, and leaning his body toward the passenger seat to avoid imaginary shooting from the opposite gun.
However, the faces of the people standing outside the car were not very good. It was obvious that the bullet hole was still behind the soldier. If Gu Lang had dodged the bullet like this at that time, his grave would have started to grow grass by now.
"You said last night that you didn't see anyone in the car?" The colonel turned and looked at Artuge.
"Uh, yes, it is," Atugo said nervously.
"Emmm, could it be because the driver was a black man that you didn't see it?" The colonel said casually, but made everyone present feel jumpy.
You bastard, what do you mean by that
At this time, a soldier ran over and whispered something to the colonel.
"I understand!" The colonel waved his hand impatiently, his expression somewhat unhappy, but there seemed to be relief in his eyes.
Wang Ping slept until he woke up naturally. He felt that all the fatigue of the past few days had finally gone away and he was in a rare good mood.
However, when I sat up from the bed and stretched, I saw my furry paws again, and my good mood was gone immediately.
"Damn it, why didn't he fall asleep? If he fell asleep, he might turn back into a human!"
Feeling the eye mucus in the corners of his eyes from sleeping and the smelly sweat from his long hairy body, Wang Ping decided to get up and take a shower first.
Gu Laosan was sleepless for half the night last night. He finally fell asleep in the second half of the night, but he got a stomach upset because of the food cooked by a certain chef. He tossed and turned until the early morning before he fell asleep. But just when he was sleeping soundly, he suddenly felt a bunch of small insects crawling into his nostrils, which made him itch like crazy.
"A-choo!"
Someone stared at a pair of big dark circles under his eyes, woke up with a sneeze, and saw a badger standing beside the bed at a glance.
Wang Ping retracted his tail as if nothing had happened. It's true that this thing is more useful than claws to wake people up.
"Good morning..."
Gu Lang rubbed his eyes and greeted him weakly.
Wang Ping glanced at him, turned around, jumped off the bed, trotted to the bathroom door, pointed inside with his paw, and turned to look at him.
Gu Lang had long felt that this guy had lived in human society before, so he was not surprised. On the contrary, with this foundation, Gu Lao San felt that it was much better than serving those dogs with strange thinking patterns.
After looking for a long time without seeing any slippers, Gu Lang put his feet into the pair of sneakers that exuded a black smell in his underwear and went to the bathroom in a daze.
"What's wrong, boss? Do you want to take a shower or go to the toilet?" Gu Lang asked curiously.
To be honest, he was more curious about how Wang Ping pooped than how he took a bath. Would his expression be cute? Would his tail get in the way? Would it stick up high? If possible, he would like to watch it and even take a video for fun.
Unfortunately, Wang Ping did not give him this opportunity. He raised his hand and pointed at the shower head, and his meaning was very clear: Brother wants to take a shower!
It’s not necessary to trouble Gu Lang, he used it himself yesterday. The switch is not high and can be turned on by just jumping.
The key point is that in this part of Africa, especially in a protected area far from a big city, there is no running water. The row of barracks where Gu Lang lives, if they want to use water, they have to rely on the soldiers to regularly pour the water they fetch into the water tanks outside the houses.
The reason why Gu Laosan was called over was because a certain badger had taken a bath too enthusiastically yesterday, and now the water tank outside the house, um, was out of water.
