After understanding animal language, the villainous girl is guaranteed to become a heartthrob.

Chapter 383 "What animals did the deceased keep at home?"

"What's wrong?" Jiang Yuan asked, fastening her seatbelt.

Sitting in the passenger seat, Xiao Xu looked back at her. "We received a report from a citizen that the deceased had been bitten by an unknown creature. The family found him when they got home and took him to the hospital, but because they couldn't get him to the hospital in time..."

"The doctor said the deceased was already dead before being taken to the hospital."

"Unidentified creature?" Jiang Yuan frowned slightly.

Xiao Xu nodded: "Yes, Ziqi just sent a picture of the wound to the group."

Jiang Yuan lowered her eyes and opened the WeChat group. The deceased's wound was on his hand, with two deep teeth marks, and his entire arm was swollen.

Why didn't he call for emergency help after being bitten?

“I find it strange too,” He Lewei said, gripping the steering wheel. “Could it be that they didn’t realize they’d been bitten?”

Xiao Xu frowned and said, "I wonder what kind of unknown creature it is, that it's so powerful."

"This is too strange," Jiang Yuan pondered. "What kind of animals did the deceased keep at home?"

Xiao Xu: "We don't keep any animals. The boss and the others are looking for them over there now."

He Lewei: "We investigated the surveillance footage near the deceased's home. No one entered or left his home on the day of the incident, and no suspicious animals were seen."

It is indeed a very strange thing.

Half an hour later, the police car stopped.

Jiang Yuan and the other two walked through the narrow alley and arrived in front of a residential building.

The deceased was named Ye Shengqi, a 37-year-old male who rented a room on the first floor of a residential building.

"Boss," He Lewei called out, "Have you found it?"

Si Heng said calmly, "We're still looking."

Seeing this, Ye Shengqi's wife couldn't help but ask, "Officer, what exactly are you looking for?"

"Let's look for clues," Meng Xiaokai replied.

Ye Shengqi's wife asked in confusion, "What is it?"

"animal."

Are you looking for the unidentified creature that killed my husband?

“No,” Meng Xiaokai explained, “We’re looking for sightings of the animal so we can find out what bit your husband.”

Ye Shengqi's wife fell silent for a moment.

She was doubting her ears.

Animal sighting? That's ridiculous.

She frowned and said, "Officer, since my husband was bitten to death by an unknown creature, we can close the case as an accident and not investigate what kind of unknown creature it was."

Upon hearing this, Chen Ziqi asked directly, "Did Mrs. Ye buy Mr. Ye a huge accidental death insurance policy?"

Ye Shengqi's wife quickly explained, "I didn't buy it; he bought it himself. He almost had an accident while mountain climbing once, and when he came back, he bought accident insurance himself."

She felt that since the person was already dead and had been bitten by an animal, and there was accidental death insurance, it didn't matter whether the truth was found out or not, as long as there was compensation.

But judging from the officer's words, it seemed like he suspected her.

"Never mind, officers, you can take your time looking," Ye Shengqi's wife said. "I'll go to the door, call me if you need anything."

She was afraid that saying another word would only deepen the misunderstanding.

Si Heng turned his head to look at the other person, a scrutinizing glint in his deep black eyes.

"I found a cockroach!" Meng Xiaokai's excited voice suddenly rang out.

Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw him lying on the ground with his buttocks sticking out, one palm bulging out and pressed tightly against the ground.

Jiang Yuan heard a cursing voice coming from his palm.

"Ugh, why is it suddenly so dark? Why did they turn off the lights without saying anything? Were they trying to scare me to death?"

This cockroach is quite timid.

Jiang Yuan squatted down next to Meng Xiaokai and said softly, "I didn't turn off the lights because I wanted to make friends with you."

"Who's talking?" the cockroach asked suspiciously.

"Humanity."

"Humans want to be my friends? I don't believe it. There must be some ulterior motive!"

Jiang Yuan: "...You even know idioms!"

"Of course, I'm the most cultured cockroach in our area." "What's your name?"

"My name is Cultural Mantis."

"I am Jiang Yuan."

"Oh, I didn't ask you what your name is."

Jiang Yuan: "..."

I've encountered a cockroach with a personality.

"Actually, there's something I'd like to ask you," she explained.

Culture Mantis: "How do you know I'm cultured?"

Jiang Yuan: "..."

She sighed softly, "Yes, you radiate the glow of culture."

This compliment clearly pleased Cultural Mantis; "Was it really that obvious?"

"Can you answer a few questions for me?" Jiang Yuan asked.

Cultural Mantis: "It's possible, but could you please turn on the light? It's so dark, I don't feel safe."

Jiang Yuan blinked, thinking to herself, "Don't cockroaches like to crawl in the dark? Why are you afraid of the dark?"
She reminded Meng Xiaokai to let go of her hand, and sure enough, there was a cockroach the size of a fingernail on the floor.

The culture mantis shook its antennae. "Now that it's shiny, I'm not scared anymore. Okay, go ahead and ask me what question you want to ask me?"

Jiang Yuan: "Did you know that a human has died in this house?"

Cultural Mantis: "I know, it's that male named Sheng Qi."

Jiang Yuan raised an eyebrow slightly, sensing an opportunity. "Then do you know why he died?"

The culture mantis shook its antennae again. "I don't know about that. Although I am cultured, I also have blind spots in my knowledge."

Jiang Yuan: "...Did you see any other animals in this house?"

Cultural Mantis: "I didn't see it."

Jiang Yuan frowned slightly and shook her head at everyone, "It doesn't know."

Meng Xiaokai sighed in disappointment, "Ugh, all that effort I put into finding this cockroach!"

Jiang Yuan looked around and saw a small figure standing on the window security bars.

"Wait for me a moment." After she finished speaking, she stepped out of the house.

Seeing this, Xiao Xu quickly followed her, saying, "Yuan Yuan, I'll stay with you."

Jiang Yuan found some crows nearby, bought some grain to feed them, and tried to build a good relationship with them.

"Human, what do you want to know?" the crow asked.

Jiang Yuan: "Do you come here often?"

The crow replied, "Yes, what's wrong?"

Jiang Yuan: "Have you seen any animals come into this house?"

"Animals?" The crow tilted its head and thought for a moment. "Does a snake count?"

Jiang Yuan nodded immediately: "Yes, did you see it enter this house?"

She pointed to Ye Shengqi's house.

The crow followed her finger and nodded: "Yes, that's where I saw it."

"You mean there's a snake in this house, right?" Jiang Yuan asked.

“Yes!” the crow cawed. “That snake is terrifying; you humans are all afraid of it.”

Jiang Yuan asked seriously, "Do you recognize what kind of snake it is?"

Crow: "I heard you humans call it something like 'Eye King,' it's quite a big snake!"

"The King of Eyes?" Jiang Yuan murmured.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Xu immediately exclaimed, "Could it be a cobra?"

Jiang Yuan quickly searched for pictures of cobras on her phone and showed them to the crow, "Can you help me identify it? Does it look like this?"

Several crows gathered in front of the screen and watched intently for a while, then nodded at Jiang Yuan.

"Yes, yes! It's this snake!"

Thank you [Minjin] for the monthly pass! Mwah!
