The screams were so loud that people from the surrounding tents came out to see what was going on.
When camping in the wild, because the soundproofing of tents was poor, people usually wore earplugs. Li Du wore earplugs, which were really good at soundproofing.
Li Du was woken up by someone. He opened his eyes groggily and yawned. "What's wrong? Is it morning already? "
"No, those naughty kids did something to them. There are a few people screaming outside."
Hearing this, Li Du quickly went out. F * ck, it was hard to guard against thieves from home. These thieves had caused trouble for him again!
Some people might be injured, so it was necessary to turn on the lights. Besides, no one was watching the starry sky at this time. Everyone had gone to bed, so it was not a problem to turn on the lights.
When the lights were turned on, the campsite quickly became as bright as day.
Seeing the young people screaming on the ground and the telescope on the ground, Li Du was no longer anxious. He quickly figured out what had happened.
Needless to say, those bastards who had stolen the telescope were beaten up by Ah Meow and the others.
Sophie called out, "Come back, come back!"
Seeing so many people come out, the little guys knew that there was no chance to show off. Fortunately, they were almost done playing, so they hopped back to Sophie's side.
There was only one exception. Ah Meng was still biting down on Grande's leg.
Grande was in pain and scared. He rolled on the ground and shouted, "Ah, what the hell is this? Help me! Come and save me! Help me! "
Some people thought that it was really a beast attacking people, so they picked up baseball bats and other defensive tools to chase Ah Meng away. However, because Grande was struggling, the bats did not hit Ah Meng, but hit Grande a few times.
"This poor guy," a girl said sympathetically. "I hope this animal doesn't have rabies."
"What is this thing? Where did it come from? Didn't we chase away all the beasts in our campsite? "
"It's a honey badger, but it should be in Africa. Why is it here? Whose pet is it? "
Li Du walked up leisurely and stretched out his hand to pull Ah Meng.
Ah Meng did not let go. It had been kicked, and now it wanted revenge. Either I die, or I die. There is no third way!
Sophie came up with a bottle of honey, and when he smelled the sweetness, he opened his mouth. If someone was willing to sacrifice honey, there was a third way.
Someone called the police. Animal attacks were a serious security issue in the United States.
When the police arrived, a young man stood up and wanted to run. Grande endured the pain and shouted, "Why are you running? We are the victims! "
Li Du pointed at the binoculars on the ground and said, "You guys are the victims?"
Brother Wolf took out a video and showed it to the police. He had taken it with an infrared night vision device. The US military's night vision device was very advanced and had many functions, including recording.
The evidence was conclusive, and the young men were timid. They quickly confessed the truth, that they wanted to steal the binoculars, but were attacked by animals.
In order to prevent accidents like this from happening at the party, the town arranged for the town's doctors to be there. The doctors and nurses quickly came to treat their wounds and were then taken to the police station.
Li Du had nothing to do here. He could not be bothered to lower himself to their level. He could just charge them with theft. He had to stay and attend the party.
The party would last for two days, but it would also be delayed by one or two days. Li Du stayed until February 14th, when he returned to Phoenix.
Hans had already sold the portrait of the prince. His idea was very good. The portrait of the prince was sold for a high price of one million dollars.
At that time, the oil painting appraiser Logan Stanley had said that Spoilum's painting could be worth a million dollars. However, that was only at an auction. It was already very impressive to sell it at that price under normal circumstances.
In the remaining half of February, Hans sold three more paintings. These three paintings were sold for a lower price. In total, they were sold for 2.2 million dollars.
Li Du was not selling the binoculars. He planned to keep them for his own use. Observing the stars was really interesting.
February ended and it was March. Spring had arrived, and it was time for them to prepare for their trip to Siberia.
Siberia was a vast area in North Asia. It stretched from the Ural Mountains to the west, to the Chukotka Peninsula to the east, to the Arctic Ocean to the north, to the north-central mountains of Kazakhstan to the southwest, and to Mongolia and the Outer Khingan Mountains to the south.
This time, Li Du was going to accompany Luo Qun to find the murderer of her family. It was destined to be a long journey. It was really difficult to find someone in the vast expanse of Siberia.
Fortunately, Luo Qun had been using the contacts she had accumulated when she was a police officer to investigate. She found out that Jonas Malone was indeed somewhere in Siberia, excavating mammoth ivory.
Mammoths were animals that people knew very well. They were distant relatives of elephants. The taller and stronger mammoths became extinct more than a thousand years before Christ.
This kind of giant beast had lived on Earth for three to four million years. It could have become a kind of ancient giant beast that modern humans could come into contact with. Unfortunately, at the beginning of human civilization, they became extinct.
In ancient times, mammoths lived in a wide area and there were many species. They were named according to where they were found. There were Columbian mammoths, Romanian mammoths, North American pygmy mammoths, Wrangel mammoths, African mammoths, southern mammoths, Sardinian mammoths, and so on.
However, few of these mammoths could be preserved. They were named according to the remains found.
Siberia was an exception. It had been a cold wasteland since prehistoric times. After the death of the mammoths, due to geological activity or some other reason, they were frozen in the frozen soil and preserved better.
As a result, a new profession appeared in Siberia, similar to meteorite hunters. They could also be called ivory hunters. Many people made a fortune by digging for ivory.
Li Du had an ivory treasure map in his hand. He was going to Siberia to be an ivory hunter, so he wanted to learn more about the industry.
In March, Steve was waiting for them in Alaska, where they would meet and fly to Russia's Siberian region.
Siberia was almost entirely in Russia, except for the southwestern tip. According to the terrain, this vast area could be divided into three parts: the West Siberian Plain, the Central Siberian Plateau, and the East Siberian Mountains.
Li Du's destination was the Central Siberian Plateau. It was cold all year round, the environment was harsh, and there were few people. However, there used to be a lot of mammoths living there, and most of the mammoth ivory that appeared on the market was found there.
Of course, there were more mammoths living in the West Siberian Plain, but the environment there was relatively mild, and there were fewer mammoths.
Luo Qun had resigned from the police station not because she had nothing to do. She had been investigating Jonas Malone and had located him somewhere in the Central Siberian Plateau.
