At night, Faang Cheng laid on his soft bed, but he could not fall asleep! That foreign call during the day was still lingering in his mind!

"Liuyang County..." Valley... "Ancient tomb …"

When he heard about this, his first thought was to report it to the police, but he didn't have any evidence. He didn't even see the person on the phone clearly, could it be that the police would gather the people to wait in the valley for him just because he said he heard that person make a phone call? On the contrary, it was very likely that he would be caught as a lunatic!

This voice was very close to him, as if it was right beside his ears. Faang Cheng's heart suddenly tightened, something in the darkness, it would always make people fear! He slowly stretched out his hand and touched the light switch on the bed.

"Pah!"

When the light went on, Faang Cheng stared at his desk in a daze. On top of his desk stood a small animal, and he felt that this animal was a little familiar.

"Little Hamster? Is it really you, Little Hamster? "

Faang Cheng could tell that the Little Hamster that was standing on his desk at that moment, was the one that he had met before his finger was cut off. Because its head had a cluster of snow-white fur, it was very recognizable!

"Why are you here? How did you get here? Did you hitchhike here? "

Faang Cheng was actually dating a hamster.

The Little Hamster was jumping on the desk non-stop. The table was covered with a glass panel and was very slippery. It kept slipping, climbing up, and then continued to slide as if it was performing acrobatics!

"What are you doing? Does it not hurt to keep falling like this! "

Faang Cheng placed the Little Hamster on top of his hand to let it rest for a while, but it just so happened to crawl back onto the desk, continued to jump, and continued to throw! When it was taken down again, it climbed up again and repeated itself several times. Faang Cheng suddenly felt that something was wrong, every time the Little Hamster climbed back to the same place.

"This is …" What are you trying to tell me again? "

Faang Cheng's first reaction was to survey his surroundings, to determine if there was any danger. Because the last time he was injured, he was following this little thing! He suspiciously looked towards the place where the Little Hamster was jumping at, and sure enough, he found the problem. The location that the Little Hamster was stepping on again and again, was towards the northeastern part of Liuyang County.

"You know this place? You are... You want me to go? "

Faang Cheng asked while looking at the Little Hamster, but the Little Hamster did not have any reaction. It only used its little black eyes to stare at Faang Cheng, who was in front of it!

Faang Cheng could not help but laugh bitterly, he might have gone crazy, to actually be talking to a hamster! But wasn't the timing of the Little Hamster's appearance too coincidental? Could it be that the Little Hamster had the ability to predict? A Godeater Rat?

Thinking about the last time the Little Hamster pulled him to find something that caused him to lose his finger, it couldn't be that it had lost his head this time, right? Faang Cheng stared silently in that direction on the map for a long, long time... As for the Little Hamster, it had been sitting there the entire time, staring at him with its beady little eyes.

"Never mind, just die!" Even though he had lost a finger last time, didn't he also gain this miraculous ability? It was a blessing in disguise! This time … Maybe I can really catch all of these Grave Robber! "

Thus, after pondering for half the night, Faang Cheng decided to take a risk. He wanted to go to Liuyang County, and he made this decision for two reasons! The first was the greater one. He did not want his country's goods to be lost abroad, at least not while he knew it; the second was the more selfish one. He wanted those things! Since he had already decided to make a name for himself in the antique shop, he couldn't do without good stuff. He didn't pick it up every day, and he still had to rely on the real items in his hands to stay in the business for a long time! Therefore, he thought that once he found those people, he would call the police and capture those people. He might not be discovered even if he were to secretly take a few things!

After making his decision, Faang Cheng was finally able to sleep peacefully. But just as he laid down, he realized that while he was in a daze, the Little Hamster had disappeared once again.

On the second day, the moment Faang Cheng went to work, he ran over to the Geological Bureau's tool warehouse. He did not want to take things from the government, he just wanted to ask what was the most reliable and most useful brand of these things. Even though he was born for geological exploration, this was his first time entering a mountain by himself, and he did not want to be caught halfway!

"Captain Lee!"

Faang Cheng threw the cooked food and fruits he bought downstairs onto Lee Daquan's desk!

Because of the incident with Faang Cheng last time, Lee Daquan was evacuated from the frontlines. Although leaving the frontlines had always been Lee Daquan's wish, now that he was transferred to the Equipment Management Office to be a tool storekeeper and a associate student, although it sounded nice, his salary and treatment had dropped. It was clear that he had been demoted.

And the direct cause of the accident was that — Faang Cheng, out of regret towards the Captain Lee, would occasionally come to the tool store to chat, eat, and play chess with him whenever he had nothing to do!

"Faang Cheng is here!"

Lee Daquan walked out of the warehouse and rubbed his hands on his work clothes.

"Here, this is for you. Your favorite dish, beef mince with soy sauce and dried sausages. You even bought a few apples and bananas. Didn't you say that you were constipated two days ago?"

Faang Cheng handed over the food in his hands to Lee Daquan. Geological work was like fighting on the frontlines of the battle.

"Alright!"

Lee Daquan took it greedily, and just as he was about to put it in his mouth, he suddenly remembered something, and raised his head to ask Faang Cheng.

"I heard that you seem to have gotten rich recently? Even the Land Rover has been driven? "

"No, it's just some old items that were left behind by my grandfather that were worth some money and were sold!" We changed our house and got a car! "

Faang Cheng was unwilling to say more, after all he was still in a public institution, although he did not have a team, it was not good!

"Sure, to be able to buy this car, he must have sold it for a lot of money!"

Lee Daquan's face was filled with envy.

"Not much!" "Oh right, Captain, write me the tags for the tools we use to get into the mountains!"

Faang Cheng gently said as he passed the subject, and then seemingly inadvertently changed the topic.

"Ah?" What's the point of writing that? You can use any tool store you want! Besides, you don't need to go to the front anymore.

Lee Daquan did not care about Faang Cheng's attitude, he had long gotten used to Faang Cheng's personality. As he ate, he asked curiously.

"Oh, I didn't want to use it myself. It was a friend of mine who wanted to explore the mountains and wanted me to ask around!"

Faang Cheng casually made up an excuse.

"Oh, alright then. I'll write one after I finish eating!"

Lee Daquan nodded in agreement. Suddenly, he seemed to have thought of something, as he mysteriously went close to Faang Cheng's ear and whispered into it.

"Oh, right, Faang, did you know that the foster daughter of our Deputy Chief is coming to the Bureau to work?"

"Go ahead, what's the matter?" "What's so special about this? Don't we have a lot of contacts in the department?"

Faang Cheng had long gotten used to it.

"Hey, this goddaughter …" She's not really a goddaughter, do you understand? "

Lee Daquan admired Faang Cheng's ability to understand, it was simply a negative number.

"Not really a goddaughter? That's my daughter? "

Faang Cheng's face was full of confusion, when did Captain Lee's words start to change?

"Sigh, it's San-er …" "Little San'er!"

"Oh …" Then just say it directly to Little San'er! "I really thought she was my goddaughter!"

Faang Cheng did not feel that there was any problem with his EQ, and could only blame Lee Daquan for not understanding. Lee Daquan looked at Faang Cheng gloomily, and knew that he was a fool for this, and did not care about it at all, and continued.

"Think about it, since that Little San is here, he must be a civilian!" But how could there be a vacant seat for the department's civilians!? From the looks of it, it seems like another unlucky fellow with no backers is going to suffer! "

Although Lee Daquan was not of a high level, he had been in the Bureau for a long time.

Hearing this, Faang Cheng's heart could not help but move, this unlucky bastard who had no backer … You're not talking about yourself, are you?

Seeing Faang Cheng's expression change slightly, Lee Daquan seemed to realize that he had said something, and hastily comforted his.

"I …" I'm not talking about you, Faang! They definitely can't touch you. You're someone who has experienced a major accident and hasn't even asked the department for compensation for your work injury. That would have saved them a lot of money! Just because of this, they can't touch you either! "

"Humph!" Why is our department so particular about this? Last year, Big Sis Niu only lost one hundred thousand to her husband who fell down on the exploration team. What was one hundred thousand worth of compensation? It wasn't easy to get Big Sis Niu a job as a logistics cleaner, but when the distant aunt of the Chief of Exploration's wife asked for a job, she found one and left her cousin there. Was that something a human could do? Therefore, with the previous example, I feel that this matter might really end up falling on my head! "

Faang Cheng shook his head helplessly. The atmosphere was like this, what could he do, he had to think of a way to go to Liyang County, it was not a good job anyway, if it really disappeared, he wouldn't feel bad, he was afraid that after his grandmother and mother found out, they would feel that he didn't have a proper job, and their hearts were not at ease!

"Come on, I better get busy with my own things! "I'll be leaving first!"

"Eh? Didn't you ask me to write you a tool sign? "

Lee Daquan knew that this brat was planning something out in his heart, and was regretting that he spoke too fast.

"No problem, just directly send it to my phone!" I'll be leaving first! "

Faang Cheng waved at Lee Daquan, then walked out of the tool store!
