I became the police station's darling after I could understand what the furry creature was sayi

Chapter 44: A Spider Talking? An Anomaly?
Okay, upstairs, we know you have a cat, stop showing off!

Watching a live stream, I feel like some strange and unusual knowledge has entered my mind again.

Nan Sinian looked at the comments and then at the screen, finding it all rather novel.

He turned his head and met the big, round eyes of the fish egg. It seemed to have heard the commotion earlier and had jumped onto the sofa at some point, tilting its little head to look at him.

Did you hear that too?

Nan Sinian reached out his hand to it, and Yudan meowed obediently, rubbing its head against his palm.

He chuckled softly and turned to look at the screen, curious to see how the young streamer would respond.

Nan Shu tilted her head.

Just as Lanlan was breathing out, a deep, resonant voice appeared in her ear.

Nan Shu was stunned for a moment, but quickly realized that it was Lanlan speaking.

"It's so annoying! I'm already full and I don't want to eat anymore! And that girl is really something. Her room is so dirty, she doesn't even bother to clean it. It's full of little bugs, and I have to climb up and down every day with my old bones."

Nan Shu blinked, trying to understand what Lanlan meant.

"Corn Baby, does Lanlan sometimes try to escape from prison?"

Nan Shu asked.

"Hmm! Xiao Nan, how did you know?" Cornstarch exclaimed in surprise.

This is also what bothers her a lot. Lanlan is the most unrestrained and free-spirited of all the exotic pets. The box can't keep it in place at all. If it's kept in there for too long, it will get restless and start banging against the box.

She had no choice but to let it out more often to get some fresh air. Later, she saw that even after Lanlan escaped, it would obediently return to the box on its own, so she just let it be.

Nan Shu smiled. "I heard it."

"Is there an unused area in your current house that you don't clean often?"

Nan Shu continued to ask.

This is what she deduced based on Lanlan's words.

The room where the baby is kept is clean and tidy, which suggests that Cornstarch is a very clean girl who often cleans up.

And Lanlan mentioned many insects...

Nan Shu observed that the cabinet specifically for storing pet food was custom-made, with tight seams and sealing strips inside. Given Lanlan's size, it was impossible for her to squeeze in.

In other words, it's very likely that there's an area in the cornstarch's house that even she can't enter. If she can't enter, she can't clean, so even if there are bugs, she won't be able to find them.

Cornstarch was stunned, its eyes widening. "Yes, yes, yes! Sister Xiaonan, you're amazing!!!"

The sound of hurried footsteps rang out, the camera shook violently, and finally stopped at the door of a locked room.

"The room I rented was originally a three-bedroom, two-living-room apartment, but the landlord said that there were too many things in the house that couldn't be moved out, and that I needed to keep a room specifically for storing my things. He offered me a 500 yuan discount on the rent."

Cornstarch scratched its head.

At that time, she had just moved out of her home and was short of money, so she naturally went for the cheapest option. The rent was 1,200 yuan in total, but she got a 500 yuan discount, which made it 700 yuan. This price was not just a bargain, it was a steal.

She agreed without hesitation and signed the rental contract with the landlord on the spot.

Since she lived alone, Cornstarch was also cautious. She asked the landlord to open the room, and she carefully checked it to make sure there were no people hiding there or anything strange.

"I've looked at the room. There's a safe, some easels, and a small piano, but nothing else."

Cornstarch asked in confusion, "Sister Xiaonan, what's wrong with this room?"

"Please zoom down a bit, I want to confirm something."

Nan Shu couldn't give an answer yet, and spoke up.

"Oh ok."

The camera is facing downwards.

"Just a little bit lower."

"Okay, stop."

The cornstarch obediently did whatever Nan Shu said. In the footage, it was clearly visible that there was a gap about the width of a finger joint between the door and the floor, enough for Lanlan to squeeze through.

"Corn Baby, do you have a key to this room? Could you open it and take a look inside?"

Nan Shu confirmed her guess and asked.

The cornstarch was taken aback. Although it didn't understand why Nan Shu said that, but...

"Sister Xiaonan, I'll call the landlord and ask."

She believed Nan Shu; there must be a reason for her saying that!
"it is good."

Cornstarch turned off the microphone, waited a little while, and then reappeared, "Sister Xiaonan, I found the key!"

As he spoke, the camera shook, and the sound of a drawer being pulled open rang out.

"Found it!"

Cornstarch, holding the key in one hand and his phone in the other, opened the door to the room.

The room hadn't been ventilated for a long time, and the floor was covered with a thick layer of dust. The smell wasn't pleasant, and the cornstarch was coughing from the dust. I stood at the door and didn't go in.

The room was very dark, with the curtains drawn.

'Snap'—

Turn on the lights.

The entire room was then displayed before Nan Shu and the others.

[It's obvious the landlord is well-off; the Steinway piano is just sitting idle, and there's also the easel and a whole set of oil paints. Art students must be crying in the bathroom!]

"Of course! And that safe too, aren't they afraid thieves will take it all? They call it a storage room, but you call it storage?"

[The rent is 2,000 a month, and the single room with a private bathroom is smaller than other people's storage rooms! I burst into tears!]

The room is about 30 square meters, about the same size as the temperature-controlled room that was previously converted from cornstarch. There is a built-in wardrobe, and where the bed used to be, there is now a piano covered with a dust cloth. There are easels piled in the corner, and a safe is placed near the bay window.

The safe was locked.

"The camera is pointed directly at the safe; zoom in."

Just as the live streamers were joking about how luxurious the room was, Nan Shu's expression turned serious.

Make the cornstarch as instructed.

As the camera zooms in, everyone sees the dark stain in front of the safe, on which lie four or five mutilated cockroach corpses and the dead bodies of flies.

[Holy crap! Xiao Nan, are your eyes rulers? You saw it from this far away in an instant!]

[Me, who was eating: ...]

[Tart and refreshing, perfect with rice! Each bite is crunchy and delicious!]

While shoveling fish poop and watching the live stream, Nan Sinian had just scooped up the poop when he looked up and saw this magnified scene, causing his lips to twitch.

Suddenly I felt like my hands weren't very clean anymore.

He has obsessive-compulsive disorder related to cleanliness, though it's not severe.

'Meow!'

Fishball sat to the side, tilting its head, watching as its new pet owner suddenly stopped what it was doing and urged it on.

"Okay, okay, I'll shovel it for you, sorry for the trouble."

Nan Si Nian continues to scoop poop.

I thought to myself, turtles are definitely better; cats are such a hassle!
Zoom in to the maximum.

If you look closely, you'll find that the cockroach's mutilated corpse is still wrapped with strands of white silk, which are spider silk.

"Is this Lanlan's spider silk?"
