Chapter 13: Found, caught red-handed.
Yang Xun's startled stop caused the live stream to become lively again.
"Hey streamer, weren't you looking for fish? Why are you turning back?"
"You used to be able to find the cats and dogs on foot in less than half an hour, but now you've been searching for them on your electric scooter for over an hour. Where's the fish?"
"If they don't cheat, the streamer is completely out of options."
……
After a moment of stunned silence, Yang Xun was overjoyed, but naturally he did not reveal to the live stream that he had located the exact address of the dragonfish.
The exact address of the dragonfish surprised and puzzled him.
The exact address of the dragonfish turned out to be the abandoned construction site where the Labrador Retriever was found last time.
Logically speaking, it's impossible for a thief to take the stolen arowana to an abandoned construction site, unless the thief was trading the arowana there, or the thief was an unemployed vagrant living in the abandoned construction site.
Regardless of which option it was, Yang pondered for a moment, then started his electric car and headed towards the abandoned construction site.
Soon, he arrived at the gate of the abandoned construction site. Instead of rushing in, he thought about it again and then took out his phone to dial a number.
……
At this moment, Huang Jian received the criminal investigation personnel who came to investigate the scene of the theft of the arowana. After they left, he said helplessly to his friend Chu Tai, "Brother Tai, the criminal investigation personnel just told me that due to a lack of evidence, it will probably be difficult for them to help me find the arowana in a short time. There is no hope for Xiao Yang either. I'm afraid I won't be able to find my lucky fish."
Chu Tai understood Huang Jian's feelings and comforted him, "Jian, don't worry. With today's advanced technology, we'll find out where your dragonfish is sooner or later. But I'm also a little curious about who would target your dragonfish and steal it."
Huang Jian frowned and asked in confusion, "Yes, I also can't figure out who's after my arowana. But one thing is for sure, this person must know me and know that I have an arowana that I've raised for decades and that's worth hundreds of thousands."
Many people have come to visit me and seen my arowana, but I just don't know who they are.
"Jian, don't think about that for now. All we can do now is wait for the investigators to find the dragonfish based on the clues. Then we'll know who stole it."
Chu Tai offered another word of comfort, suggesting, "Ah Jian, let's go eat first. You haven't eaten all morning; your health is important."
"Hey, Tai-ge, I can't find the fish, I really don't feel like eating. You go eat, I want to be alone."
Huang Jian waved his hand, still looking heartbroken.
Just then, Xiao Yang called again. Puzzled, he answered the phone, saying weakly, "Xiao Yang, what's wrong?"
"Mr. Huang, I've found the arowana, but there's a gang inside, so I'm afraid to go in. Please call the police and bring people over here immediately."
Upon hearing this, Huang Jian jumped up from his seat and asked excitedly, "Xiao Yang, you're not wrong, are you? You found my dragonfish! Where is it? I'll call the police and bring people over right away."
"Old Huang, it's absolutely true. You should call the police and bring people over immediately. I'm afraid if we're too late, those people will have to go somewhere to trade the dragonfish. If we delay, things might get complicated."
"Okay, Xiao Yang, be careful. I'll call the police and bring people over right now."
An excited Huang Jian hung up the phone after giving a few instructions, then looked at Chu Tai, who was standing next to him with a puzzled expression, and said urgently, "Brother Tai, let's go, Xiao Yang has found the dragonfish. He told me to call the police and take some people there quickly."
"Okay, let's hurry up."
Chu Tai also got excited and quickly went out of the villa.
……
At this moment, at the gate of the abandoned construction site, Yang Xun hung up the phone and started the live broadcast again.
"Hey streamer, isn't this the abandoned construction site where you were looking for your dog last time? What are you doing here? You don't actually suspect that the fish is here, do you? That would be ridiculous."
"How could an arowana worth hundreds of thousands of dollars possibly be here? You're livestreaming your search for fish, the thieves have already escaped."
"Host, you're still not giving up? Hurry up and go back. Stop looking, you won't find it."
……
Yang Xun ignored the comments in the live stream, focusing instead on the activity inside the abandoned construction site.
Fortunately, there was no movement inside and no one came out, otherwise he really wouldn't know what to do.
After waiting for less than half an hour, Huang Jianchu arrived in his car with several police cars.
After getting off the bus, Huang Jian looked at Yang Xun and asked, "Little Yang, where's the fish?"
Chu Tai glanced at the abandoned construction site, frowned, and said seriously, "Xiao Yang, you're not saying the fish are inside the construction site, are you?"
The police officers who got out of the car all had serious faces, but their eyes were also full of doubt.
One of the policewomen looked around a few times, then stepped forward and stared at Yang Xun: "The dragonfish is of considerable value, so it shouldn't be in these places, right?"
"Old Huang, Grandpa, brothers and sisters, the dragonfish is inside the construction site. Please come in with me immediately."
Yang Xun coldly said, and without hesitation, he was the first to rush forward.
Of course, the live stream camera was always pointed at the ground.
"Let's follow."
Seeing that Yang Xun didn't seem to be faking it, the others quickly followed with cold faces.
The live stream chat was buzzing with excitement, and the number of viewers skyrocketed.
"No way, the fish are in that abandoned construction site, how is that possible?"
"The thieves are so stupid. After stealing an arowana worth hundreds of thousands, they would take it to an abandoned construction site. It doesn't make sense. Could the streamer have made a mistake?"
"Even the police were mobilized, so the streamer probably wouldn't dare to make a false police report."
"Little Kitten: Host, are you really sure the arowana is in there? Otherwise, you're in trouble."
……
At that moment, Yang Xun had no time to think about the live broadcast room. He kept rushing forward until he entered an abandoned and unfinished building. His heart was pounding.
It's so quiet, there's not a single person in sight, it's so strange.
However, he had no choice but to grit his teeth and lead the team quickly up to the second floor.
According to the radar, the arowana was on the second floor.
Huang Jian and Chu Tai, who were following behind, were also secretly sweating. What if the dragon fish wasn't here? How would they explain it?
But since we're already here, we can only hope that Yang Xun hasn't gone to the wrong place.
With a few quick, quiet steps, Yang Xun first went up the stairs to the second floor, his eyes rapidly scanning the entire second-floor space.
Instantly, his gaze fixed on a fish tank with oxygen in the corner.
In the corner next to the fish tank, there were three beds with mosquito nets, and three people were lying on the beds.
Upon realizing this, Yang Xun breathed a sigh of relief and immediately pointed ahead to the group of people who had come up, saying, "The dragonfish is in that fish tank. Those three people must be the ones who stole it."
As soon as he finished speaking, a group of police officers rushed forward, while the three people on the bed jumped up.
But they were immediately apprehended and handcuffed.
"So it was those three."
Yang Xun then recognized the three men as the same three who had been preparing to slaughter the Labrador Retriever at the abandoned construction site a few days ago.
Huang Jian quickly followed and looked into the fish tank. The arowana that had been stolen from him was swimming leisurely in the tank, and he excitedly squatted down.
"Little Red, I've finally found you."
