"Hehe, Auntie Su, okay, please wait a moment!" Tang Tang responded with a smile.
"It's okay, I'm not in a hurry." Auntie Su nodded, and then chatted with a woman who was buying fried dough sticks next to her. The two people obviously knew each other and were familiar with each other. "Oh, Old Xu, isn't your husband a taxi driver? There's a good thing, here's an advertisement list for you. "
"What advertisement list?" The woman named Old Xu took the advertisement list and glanced at it. "Dog search notice? Bonus of one hundred thousand? Is this for real? So much money? "
"A rich woman playing mahjong in the mahjong house next to my hotel lost her dog, and she was so worried. What's one hundred thousand for rich people? In their eyes, dogs are more important than people! " Auntie Su nagged, "This old woman also wrongly said that my guest took away her dog, and she even went to the police. What kind of person is she? Is she great just because she's rich?"
"Oh? What dog, one hundred thousand? " The speaker was unintentional, but the listener was interested. Xiao Chen, who was frying the fried dough sticks, shook his hand slightly, raised his head, and pretended to ask as if nothing had happened.
"I don't know what dog it is. These rich people really don't care about money. How long do you think it will take to earn one hundred thousand by selling breakfast here? These people will be thrown out in the blink of an eye … "Auntie Su said, showing the advertisement list in her hand and shaking it in front of Xiao Chen's eyes.
It turned out that it was an adult Tibetan Mastiff. No wonder the bonus was one hundred thousand. It was impossible to get so much money for an ordinary puppy! Xiao Chen glanced at it and remembered the contact number on it. But after hearing Auntie Su's words, he looked at Tang Tang and smiled bitterly. One hundred thousand was nothing for Xiao Chen and Tang Tang in the past.
However, both of them were people who could take it and let it go. Tang Tang smiled and said, "The money is his own. We can't control how he wants to spend it. Hehe, Auntie Su, here's your fried dough sticks and soy milk."
"That's right, Little Tang, here's the money." Auntie Su took the fried dough sticks and soy milk and quickly left the breakfast stall.
One hundred thousand. An imperceptible excitement flashed through Xiao Chen's eyes. Looking for a dog? If he didn't have the experience of finding a bracelet for Miss Huo, Xiao Chen wouldn't dare to accept this task, but now, Xiao Chen felt that he should give it a try.
In the blink of an eye, it was time to pack up. Xiao Chen and Tang Tang parked the tricycle and went to school. But when they were about to reach the school gate, Xiao Chen suddenly said, "By the way, Tang Tang, I forgot to bring a pencil and eraser. I'll buy them. You go to school first."
"Okay, but at this time, the culture and education store should not be open yet. You have to go to the morning market street to buy …" Tang Tang said.
"Don't worry, isn't the exam starting at ten o 'clock today? There's still time. "Xiao Chen smiled and said," Help me take my bag back first! "
Today was the day of the mock test. The test would be held at ten o 'clock. There would be one subject in the morning and one subject in the afternoon. There was still one more day tomorrow.
"Okay, don't be late. Don't forget that you are going for the scholarship!" Tang Tang reminded him.
"Don't worry, I can't be late for the sake of money." Xiao Chen nodded.
After saying goodbye to Tang Tang, Xiao Chen ran back to the morning market street. He was not going to buy a pencil and eraser. How could he forget such a big thing as the exam? He still counted on the scholarship to buy medicine, although it was a drop in the bucket for him now.
However, Xiao Chen did not directly contact the rich woman who lost the dog. Instead, he went to a small stall in the morning market street, intending to buy a mask. Looking at the dazzling array of masks, Xiao Chen looked at his own attire and casually picked a white fox mask.
Just now, Xiao Chen did not take off his chef's suit, but he did not want to expose his identity as a chef, so he got a white fox mask with the white coat on his body, which was quite cool.
The chef's outfit that Tang Tang got from the Internet was actually not a real chef's outfit, but a cosplay style, which was very tight. With this mask, no one would think of him as a chef.
Xiao Chen did not intend to expose his identity for the time being. He could sell breakfast, but if he helped someone find the dog and found it, what would the Cheng family think? Would they doubt him?
These were the things that Xiao Chen must consider. After buying the mask, Xiao Chen bought a SIM card from a stall that sold network cards. Now there were a lot of these foreign phone cards, such as a 5 yuan package, a few hundred minutes of text messages, a few hundred megabytes of data, and so on. Although he did not know where it came from, this person had been selling it in the morning market for so long, and no one came back to ask for a refund. Instead, there were many repeat customers, which showed that it was not fake.
Xiao Chen spent 200 yuan to buy a card, asked the person to help cut it into the size of an apple, and stuffed it into his iPhone.
Although Xiao Chen was famous in the area where he sold breakfast, the back of the morning market street was selling daily necessities. There was no intersection with those who sold breakfast in the front, so naturally, it was impossible for them to know Xiao Chen.
After that, Xiao Chen found a place where there was no one, put on the white fox mask on his face, and dialed the number of the rich woman.
"Who is calling me so early? I'm so sleepy …" It took a long time for the old woman to answer the phone. Obviously, she had not woken up yet.
"Do you want to find the dog?" Xiao Chen did not talk nonsense with her, and asked directly.
"Ah! Do you know the whereabouts of my Blackie? " The rich woman obviously woke up at once, and asked eagerly, "Don't worry, as long as the clues you provide are valuable, the 100,000 yuan will not be less!"
"I'm a detective. If you want to find the dog, tell me where you are. Let's talk face to face," said Xiao Chen.
"Oh, okay, my house is in the Lead Hua Shuian Villa District, area D, Building 9." The rich woman quickly reported the address of her house, but she did not think that Xiao Chen was here to rob her. Not to mention that there were security patrols in the community during the day, even in his house, there were servants, drivers, and gardeners.
"Lead Hua Shuian Villa District?" Xiao Chen was slightly stunned. Isn't this the community where I live? Xiao Chen also paid attention to the name of this community at that time. Lead Hua Shuian was a real estate developed by a large development company in the province. Almost every city in the province had a flagship villa district. "Okay, wait for me. I'll go now."
"Okay, then I'll wait for you!" said the rich woman quickly. Obviously, her family's puppy was very important to her.
Wearing the mask, Xiao Chen ran all the way back to the villa district. Of course, although Xiao Chen's weird outfit attracted a lot of attention from passersby, there was no one who made a fuss about it.
In this day and age, people were used to seeing cosplay and extras. There was even Sun Wukong buying train tickets. What was Xiao Chen?
When Xiao Chen ran into the community, a red Beetle passed by Xiao Chen.
Jin Beibei pointed at Xiao Chen outside the car and shouted excitedly, "Oh my god. Cousin Mengying, look at the White Fox Spirit!"
Cheng Mengying glanced at him and said disapprovingly, "A minor actor. What's there to see?" Jin Beibei stayed at home the previous day, and they went to school together this morning.
"However, his back is very familiar. I feel like I've seen him somewhere before," Jin Beibei said doubtfully as she watched Xiao Chen run far away.
"Maybe he's from this community. Otherwise, how did he get in without an access card?" Cheng Mengying didn't think too much about it.
"Oh …" Jin Beibei started the car.
Naturally, Xiao Chen also saw the Young Mistress and Jin Beibei's car. However, he didn't dare to stop. If he was recognized, his disguise would be in vain.
When they arrived at the door of the villa in District D, Building 9, Xiao Chen rang the doorbell. Soon, a fashionably dressed rich woman walked out. She looked very young. Xiao Chen felt that it was inappropriate for such a young rich woman to dress like this!
However, when the rich woman saw Xiao Chen at the door, she was shocked and exclaimed, "You! Who are you? "
"Let me introduce myself. My nickname is White Fox. I'm here to help you find your dog." Xiao Chen introduced himself.
"Uh … Mr. White Fox … Why are you dressed like this?" The rich woman felt that Xiao Chen looked a little weird. "Can you take off your mask?"
"Are you looking for the dog or me?" Xiao Chen asked coldly.
"Uh … Of course, I'm looking for the dog." If it were any other time, the rich woman might have chased Xiao Chen out. She must have thought that Xiao Chen was a liar. However, the dog had been missing for a day, and there was still no news. Her husband was the boss of a company. He had many social engagements and had mistresses outside. She didn't have children yet. She only had Blackie to rely on. It could be said that Blackie was like her son. Hence, she wouldn't give up as long as there was a glimmer of hope.
"Okay, but we have to talk about the price first," said Xiao Chen.
"Don't worry. Since I released the advertisement, I won't go back on my word." The rich woman said quickly. She didn't care about the mask anymore.
"As for the price, one hundred thousand is a little low." Xiao Chen shook his head.
"Then … How much does Mr. White Fox want …" The rich woman frowned slightly. She wondered if this person was a liar.
"One hundred and twenty thousand," said Xiao Chen.
"Ah? One hundred and twenty thousand? Sure, no problem … … "The rich woman thought that Xiao Chen would ask for a million or eight hundred thousand. She didn't expect that he would only add twenty thousand on top of the original amount. This was nothing to her, so she immediately agreed.
Xiao Chen looked at the rich woman's straightforward look. He wondered if he was too kind and asked for too little. However, this was his first detective mission. It was okay to ask for less. He was afraid that if he asked for too much, the rich woman would give up.
"Let me see where your dog usually lives," said Xiao Chen.
"Sure." The rich woman nodded and brought Xiao Chen into the mansion. They came to a pet room on the first floor. "It's here."
Xiao Chen pretended to check the puppy's room for a while. In reality, he was just memorizing the puppy's scent and the puppy's photo hanging in the room. "Let's go. Take me to the place where you threw the puppy."
