Chapter 83 Asking for Help

The next afternoon.

A mobile phone was placed on the stone table. Bai Yanliang lowered his head and stretched out his fingers carefully, looking for the correct key position. The little black cat wrapped like a mummy by him was also lying on the stone table, tilting its head and looking at the phone curiously.

He has been in this position for nearly two hours.

What he is doing now is writing down his discoveries in the Wuji Village and the key to the final breakthrough.

This is actually a very simple thing, but the difficulty lies in Bai Yanliang's typing speed, which is so slow that it is outrageous.

"Meow--"

The little black cat looked for a long time and seemed to be getting bored, so it called out to him.

Bai Yanliang looked up at it and saw that the little guy was obviously in much better spirits.

"Why, are you hungry?"

He touched the little black cat's head and asked.

At this moment, there was a creaking sound, and a young man opened the door, holding a towel and a toothbrush, and came out yawning.

"Morning, Bai."

Gao Fei greeted in a daze.

Bai Yanliang glanced at the time. It was just two o'clock in the afternoon, which was quite early for someone who got home at six in the morning.

"Good afternoon, Brother Gao."

"Meow--"

Gao Fei didn't react when he heard Bai Yanliang's voice, but the sudden sound of a cat's meow made him open his eyes suddenly.

"Ah! Cat!"

The young forensic doctor instantly perked up, excitedly threw away his cleaning supplies and rushed to the stone table.

"Mimi, mimi..." Gao Fei stretched out his fingers and teased the little black cat with interest.

However, the little black cat just looked up at him, then moved towards Bai Yanliang and completely ignored him.

"Bai, why is it ignoring me..." Gao Fei's voice sounded a little aggrieved.

Bai Yanliang smiled and said, "It's not called Mimi, so of course it won't pay attention to you."

"Aren't all cats called Mimi?"

"Who did you listen to..."

Gao Fei looked at the little black cat helplessly, and only then noticed that the cat was injured.

"Did you pick it up?"

"I found it in the alley outside the courtyard." Bai Yanliang responded while struggling with the input on his phone.

Gao Fei nodded, picked up his towel and toothbrush, and temporarily gave up the idea of ​​getting close to the little black cat.

"You should give it a name, then."

Gao Fei muttered as he brushed his teeth.

"got it."

Bai Yanliang said without even raising his head.

"Oh? What's your name?" Gao Fei asked excitedly.

"Edgar Allan Poe." Bai Yanliang blurted out.

"puff……"

Gao Fei sprayed mouthwash all over the floor, pinching his throat and coughing continuously. Bai Yanliang turned his head to look at him. He looked like he was possessed by a ghost.

"Hey, Bai! You made up that name right away! Ai...what...Dongpo? Xiao Hei is better than that!"

"It's Edgar Allan Poe." Bai Yanliang emphasized.

"Are you... sure it's called this name?" Gao Fei looked at the little black cat with a conflicted look on his face, then at Bai Yanliang.

Bai Yanliang immediately proved it to him. He stretched out his hand to the little black cat and called:
"Edgar Allan Poe."

"Meow——" The little black cat tilted its head to look at Bai Yanliang and put its little paw into Bai Yanliang's palm.

"Edgar Allan Poe."

“Meow—” “Edgar Allan Poe.”

"Meow--"

The man and the cat were having a great time playing together, and Gao Fei was stunned.

"Look, it's called Edgar Allan Poe." Bai Yanliang looked at Gao Fei and said seriously.

"Meow——" The little black cat, no...Edgar Allan Poe called again.

"You don't need to bark this time." Bai Yanliang pinched its paw and corrected it.

Gao Fei looked deeply shocked, with toothpaste foam still on his lips, and walked into the house in a daze.

"It's really called Edgar Allan Poe. If you don't believe me, check it out on the Internet..."

Bai Yanliang didn’t know whether Gao Fei checked or not, but he finally finished writing a summary of the situation in Wuji Village and sent it to the group.

However, just as he stretched his wrists and neck, a phone call came in.

This time it was not a strange number without a name. The caller ID clearly said Yang Wanlong.

"Uncle Yang."

"You kid, you just left without even saying goodbye. Did Uncle Yang treat you badly?" Yang Wanlong's voice was loud, but he didn't sound angry.

"No...my brother left me some money. Yi Yi is about to start training and take exams. I have been living in Uncle Yang's house and it has affected her." Bai Yanliang said.

As expected, Yang Wanlong did not continue to talk about this matter. After all, Bai Yanliang was telling the truth.

And...he didn't just look for Bai Yanliang to express his concern.

"Yanliang, please do me a favor."

"Yeah." Bai Yanliang agreed without even asking what the favor was.

Yang Wanlong seemed surprised as well. There was silence on the other end of the phone for a moment before he continued:
"Do you remember the conversation we had in the car that day when I picked you up?"

"I remember." Bai Yanliang recalled. He had a good memory and when he recalled it now, he remembered almost every word.

"To be honest, a murder happened in JB district just now. The victim... is the same as your brother."

Bai Yanliang's heart tightened, and his eyes became more serious. He asked, "Is the deceased the same as your brother?"

"That's not the case. This case is really bizarre and I happened to be in charge of it. Uncle Yang has no choice..."

Yang Wanlong's voice became a little hoarse from the high pitch just now, it seemed that he really had a headache.

"I'll be there right away, Uncle Yang, please tell me the location." Bai Yanliang did not hesitate. Whether it was because he had some connection with Yanren or to repay Yang Wanlong's kindness, he would go.

Yang Wanlong was silent for a moment, and then a hoarse voice came out:

"Good boy..."

Yang Wanlong hung up the phone, and then Bai Yanliang received a text message with the address clearly written on it: Yunhua Road Street Park, JB District.

Bai Yanliang wrote it down and then deleted the information.

He looked at the little black cat Edgar Allen Poe with some embarrassment and said, "I have to go do something. Can you wait for me at home?"

"Meow——" Poe looked up at Bai Yanliang, looking as if he didn't understand.

But Bai Yanliang still carried it into the house. The little guy's injuries were not healed yet, so how could he be taken out?

"Wait for me."

He gave an order and closed the door. At the same time, Gao Fei was just about to go out.

He looked at Bai Yanliang in surprise and asked, "Going out?"

Bai Yanliang nodded: "Yeah."

"Then... together?"

Gao Fei was actually just asking politely, but after Bai Yanliang looked at him, he actually nodded.

"it is good."

"Uh..." Gao Fei was embarrassed now, because he was going to the place where a murder happened...

"Actually... I..." Gao Fei's face turned red and he muttered hesitantly.

"Let's go to Yunhua Road Park." Bai Yanliang looked at him and said with a smile.
