Chapter 13

Sleeping in a daze at midnight, Duan Yan suddenly opened his eyes and woke up from the dream. He drank too much wine in the nightclub earlier, his throat was dry and astringent, he got up from the bed in the dark to find water to drink.

Something seemed to have happened outside the room. The dogs that had been resting in the cage were all awake now, barking loudly.

Duan Yan walked out of the room with a water glass. The room was pitch black. There was a sound of moving things from the veterinary room on the second floor. Duan Yan thought it was Xiang Mingqiu at first. Shouted: "Xiang Mingqiu, what are you doing?!"

There was no response, and the barking of the dogs became louder and louder. Only then did Duan Yan realize that something was wrong.

He walked down the stairs with light steps and made no sound. Duan Yan saw two sneaky figures by the afterglow of the moon shining through the window. Judging from their height and physique, Xiang Mingqiu was obviously not among them.

Two strangers ran in in the middle of the night, no doubt a burglary.

Before Duan Yan could figure out what measures to take next to deal with the two thieves, a hand suddenly stretched out from behind and pushed him down violently.

The surrounding environment was dim, Duan Yan suddenly lost his center of gravity, and fell down the stairs.

There were more than two burglars!

A flashlight ray shone towards Duan Yan, and the thieves didn't run away immediately after being exposed, they rushed over and surrounded Duan Yan.

One person attacked from behind, took out a rope and strangled Duan Yan's neck, while the other two held his hands and feet respectively, trying to silence him every minute.

The rope was getting tighter and tighter, Duan Yan was out of breath. He closed his eyes and tried to keep himself calm. When the assailant thought he was going to give up struggling, Duan Yan raised his right leg with all his strength and moved towards it. One person kicked hard at the center of the crotch.

He knocked down one, then reached out and grabbed the other by the collar, roughly pulled him to him, and slammed his forehead on the bridge of the other's nose.

There was still a guy behind him who hadn't been dealt with, Duan Yan raised his arm, and punched that guy's abdomen heavily with an elbow.

The counterattack was completed in one go, but it was not over yet. After groping for the switch on the wall, Duan Yan turned on the light on the second floor, grabbed the folding stool closest to him, and waved it fiercely at the gangsters in front of him. go……

Xiang Mingqiu, who came back from buying supper outside, felt strange. He remembered that all the lights in the room were turned off before going out, but now the headlights were brightly lit. Did that guy Duan Yan wake up?

Just when the front foot stepped over the threshold, he saw the strange scene unfolding in the yard.

There was a pile of clothes lying on the ground, and the three big men were firmly tied to the chairs with hemp ropes, and each of them was stripped down to a pair of underwear.

Even if they were five or six meters away, they could still smell the pungent wind oil essence emanating from those big men.

Two industrial electric fans turned on to the maximum level were placed in front of them, blowing cool wind non-stop. Xiang Mingqiu recognized these two electric fans, and Duan Yan bought them as temporary replacements because the air conditioner in the master bedroom failed.

Turning his gaze to the other side, Duan Yan was sitting on the steps outside the house, beside him were two large red plastic buckets filled with tap water, the guy was fanning himself with a fan in his left hand, Holding a ladle, he slowly scooped a spoonful of cold water into the bucket and poured it on those people.

"Burglary and hurting people on purpose, okay, didn't you have parents to teach you when you were young, right? I will educate you for your parents today!" He sternly shouted, throwing the fan and water ladle in his hand on the ground , directly picked up a whole bucket of cold water, and poured it all over the heads of those people. After pouring one bucket, another bucket came again. Personal one-pass spraying.

It took nearly a minute for Duan Yan to notice Xiang Mingqiu who was standing at the gate: "Where did you go just now?!" His expression and tone seemed a little dissatisfied.

"Going out to buy supper." Xiang Mingqiu led the packed lunch box and walked over, "What are you doing?"

"These guys ran into the house to steal things." Duan Yan said angrily.

Even though he had called the police as soon as he caught the three thieves, he still couldn't relieve the anger in Duan Yan's heart. For this reason, he deliberately came up with this punishment plan that could not only exempt them from responsibility, but also severely teach these guys a lesson.

Xiang Mingqiu lowered his head and glanced at the two oversized axe-branded wind repellent oils lying at Duan Yan's feet. Undressed thieves, these guys were sprinkled with wind-repelling oil from head to toe, I don’t know if it was because of the stimulation of wind oil, or because they were really repenting, all teary, trembling with goose bumps, forced to accept Baptized by strong wind and cold water.

Turning to Mingqiu, he frowned at Duan Yan, and whispered quietly: "You are so perverted."

Twenty minutes later, when the police came to take the three suspects away, they denied Duan Yan's approach and gave a round of criticism and education. It was nearly four o'clock in the morning, and the theft and wounding case came to an end for the time being.

The dogs were all safe and sound, but the house was messed up by those thieves. Duan Yan was not in a good mood, he kicked the things under his feet violently, accidentally, his knee hit the corner of the coffee table next to him, and it hurt so much He frowned tightly, squatting on the ground for a long time unable to stand up.

"Help you?"

Before Duan Yan could reply, Xiang Mingqiu stepped forward to hold his arm, lent him half of his body to lean on, and brought him back to the bedroom.

Duan Yan had a two-centimeter wound on his left leg knee, which was not serious but not light. Injured, bright red blood flowed out from the open wound and cascaded down the calf.

Xiang Mingqiu found a medicine box from the medical room on the second floor, and disinfected him to stop bleeding.

When the alcohol seeped into the wound, Duan Yan was severely stimulated by the severe pain and trembled all over: "It hurts so much! Can't you take it easy?"

"What does it have to do with me that alcohol irritates your wound? You can't stand a little pain? Why are you so delicate?" Xiang Mingqiu patted his calf, "Raise your leg a little higher."

Duan Yan seemed a little reluctant, but he did as he did, stepping on the small bench with his left foot.

Xiang Mingqiu ignored the staring gazes cast by the people in front of him, took out gauze and bandages from the medicine box, and bandaged the wound on Duan Yan's knee, and handled it quite skillfully.

After it was over, he said, "Counting in playing your boyfriend before, now you owe me two favors."

Is this considered human kindness?Duan Yan pursed his lips lightly, and took back the "thank you" that had come to his lips.

Xiang Mingqiu packed the medicine box and asked before turning around and leaving the bedroom: "I bought supper, do you want to eat?"

"Don't eat." With some emotion, Duan Yan kicked off his slippers and lay down on the bed.

When he got down to the first floor, Xiang Mingqiu remembered that his mobile phone had been left in Duan Yan's room, so he had to turn back to the third floor.

tuk tuk -

He stood in front of the bedroom and knocked on the door: "Huo Huo Huo, I forgot my phone."

The people inside did not respond, and after shouting several times, Xiang Mingqiu turned the doorknob and walked into the room. At this time, the person on the bed had closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep.

There was a dim yellow table lamp on the bedside, and the faint light reflected the handsome face with three-dimensional features beside the pillow. This was the first time Xiang Mingqiu saw Duan Yan's sleeping face, without the usual dragging and irritable face. , the hair on his forehead fell down, half covering his eyebrows and eyes, adding a bit of softness.

Xiang Mingqiu walked over with light steps, picked up the mobile phone on the bedside table, turned around again and was about to leave, his eyes fell on the picture album on the desk inadvertently.

He flipped through it casually, and it was full of sketches of wiry fox terriers, all of which were drawn during this month. The earliest one was on the second day after he just took over the kennel. The charm of the eye is drawn vividly, the most brilliant part is the eyes, the bright highlights seem to be injected into the soul.

Xiang Mingqiu flipped through the pages and said to himself with a smile, "The boy is quite a solid painter."

Duan Yan woke up naturally the next day. When he sat up from the bed, he found that there was an extra plate of chocolates on the counter. He had never bought chocolates before, so it must have been placed by Xiang Mingqiu.

When did that guy come into his room?

Xiang Mingqiu and his car were not there, Duan Yan took out his mobile phone and wanted to send him a message. After searching for a long time in the WeChat address book, he remembered that he had deleted the other party's friend not long ago.

Duan Yan found Xiang Mingqiu's profile picture in the group chat, clicked on it, thought for a long time, and finally made up his mind to send him a friend request.

Xiang Mingqiu turned on the friend verification, Duan Yan thought for a while, and entered in the verification field: "You put the chocolate on the bed cabinet?"

The opposite party received the message but did not pass his friend application. Instead, he chose to reply in the original message verification box: "Brother, please treat it as breakfast."

Duan Yan asked again: "It's your turn to be on duty today, where did you go?"

Xiang Mingqiu replied: "Go home and pack some things. I'll go there in the afternoon. The dog has already been fed."

Duan Yan got a little impatient when the two of them chatted and still stayed in the information box verified by their friends.

Duan Yan: "I want to add you as a friend, hurry up and pass it."

Xiang Mingqiu: "Delete if you say delete, pass if you say pass, then I will lose face."

Duan Yan: "Do you like it or not!"

Duan Yan picked up the bar of chocolate on the counter, roughly tore open the outer packaging, put it in his mouth and bit off more than half of it, ran into the bathroom, took a shower, changed his clothes, took a taxi and went out.

Jiang Yunzhi was woken up by the continuous ringing of the doorbell outside. Duan Yan stood outside the house and pressed it for a long time, but no one came out to answer the door, so he took out his mobile phone and made a series of morning calls to the people inside who were still asleep.

The doorbell and the incoming call came at the same time. Jiang Yunzhi couldn't bear it anymore. When the quilt was thrown off, a carp jumped up. He didn't even wear his shoes, and rushed out of the room angrily.

"Duan Yan, are you sick?! You came here early in the morning and rang the doorbells of other people's houses, so you don't let people have a good rest on weekends?!"

Duan Yan didn't explain anything, and handed a cup of hot drink to Jiang Yunzhi: "Do you want caramel milk tea?"

"Drink!" Jiang Yunzhi took the milk tea from him confidently, opened the lid and poured it into his mouth.

"Fresh baked half-baked cheesecake?"

"Eat!" Jiang Yunzhi snatched the cake as well.

Duan Yan nodded, and walked straight into the room carrying a tripod.

"Sanhuo, what are you?" Jiang Yunzhi followed Duan Yan to the balcony while drinking milk tea and eating cake.

Duan Yan walked back and forth on the balcony, found a seat on the right side, and then assembled the tools he brought without saying a word.

Jiang Yunzhi kept staring at him from the sidelines. After 5 minutes, a high-power telescope was assembled. This is the kind of outdoor bird watching special!

Duan Yan moved a single sofa in the living room to the balcony, sat down as if nothing had happened, opened a cup of hot milk tea, sipped a couple of leisurely sips, and then aimed the objective lens at a resident on the 10th floor of Building 6 diagonally opposite.

"Fuck!" Jiang Yunzhi couldn't help shouting, "Sanhuo, you... you you you! You are peeping!"

Duan Yan spread a hand towards Jiang Yunzhi beside him.

"What are you doing?"

"Give me a spare key from your house, so that I can get in and out later."

"You pervert."

Duan Yan ignored it, took out his mobile phone silently, opened a small Weibo account, renamed it "Akita Dog Observation Diary", and wrote the first Weibo account.
