Chapter 1849: The Snapping Turtle in the Pond

February 12th, Monday, consecutive holidays, in the morning, on the way to Central Park.

Haibara yawned, and reluctantly followed the enthusiastic Genta, Mitsuhiko, and Ayumi to see the "legendary prehistoric giant" snapping turtle.

Taking a shortcut through the residential area, I found an acquaintance at work-Officer Takagi.

Genta, Mitsuhiko, and Ayumi stopped to inquire, and learned that a thief broke into the nearby Mr. Fukurokoji's house late last night and stole three million yen in cash.

"The criminal was wearing gloves, so no fingerprints were found, and he was wearing a hat that only exposed his eyes. I can't describe his appearance, but he is a tall and thin man. How about it, have you seen any suspicious people?"

Ayumi said: "I haven't seen it. If there is, we will definitely tell you."

Yuan Tai said: "Let's go quickly, we still have to go to Central Park."

Police officer Takagi said with a smile: "In Central Park, you are going to see the snapping turtle, be careful not to be bitten, it will be very painful."

Mitsuhiko said, "I know, then let's go first."

Huiyuan talked from the beginning to the end, but waved his hand when he left, as a farewell. ...

By the pond in Central Park.

Municipal officials are using loudspeakers to warn the citizens who are watching the excitement not to stand by the pond, lest they be bitten by the snapping turtle.

However, the citizens who watched the excitement did not buy it, and stood by the pond one by one, watching the people from the animal management department, tremblingly catching the snapping turtle in the pond.

Yuan Tai said: "They look very scared."

"Of course," Mitsuhiko said, "The giant snapping turtle is very aggressive, and the strength of its upper and lower jaws is even more amazing. It can easily bite off human fingers."

Ayumi exclaimed: "Wow, so powerful."

At this time, a large snapping turtle appeared, and the citizens pointed out the direction one after another, making the scene tense.

Yuan Tai excitedly said: "It turns out that our country has such a big tortoise."

Huiyuan said lazily: "There was no such turtle species, and its main habitat is from North America to Mexico."

Ayumi asked, "Then why are you here?"

Mitsuhiko said: "Someone must have kept it as a pet, and then secretly threw it away."

Yuan Tai clicked his tongue and said, "How could someone treat it as a pet?"

Mitsuhiko said: "That's not necessarily the case, there are all kinds of people in the world."

"I'm not interested in this kind of reptiles, but I can understand the feelings of those who raise them. Raising a quiet and huge creature like a snapping turtle may fill a gap in my heart. I'm really lonely. Ah." Huihara sighed, "But this kind of lonely people are still increasing. It is said that reptiles are very popular."

Ayumi said seriously: "Although I don't quite understand what you are talking about, Xiao Ai, but I think that since you have raised it, you should take good care of it. It would be too irresponsible to abandon it."

Mitsuhiko said righteously: "That's right, letting go of species that didn't exist before would destroy the original biological chain, which is unforgivable."

Yuan Tai was puzzled, "Wouldn't it be great to have more special products?"

"That's not the case." Mitsuhiko protested, and then said, "In short, we should find out the guy who abandoned such a terrible turtle."

Yuan Tai cheered: "Okay, the young detective team is dispatched!"

Ayumi asked, "But how do we find out?"

"I know," Mitsuhiko said excitedly, "The big snapping turtle eats a lot, and the breeders should often go to buy feed. We just need to go to the nearby pet store to find out."

Yuan Tai objected, "Why the nearby pet store?"

Ayumi agreed: "Yes, maybe it was transported by car from a far away place, so no one would know.

"

"This," Mitsuhiko couldn't refute, "In short, let's find it from nearby, otherwise there are no other clues."

"That's right." Ayumi said.

"Then let's go, the nearest pet store is here." Yuan Tai pointed the way.

Huiyuan pointed to a young woman nearby. She hid behind the crowd and looked around. Her facial expression was obviously different from that of the spectators, and she looked nervous.

"Instead of going to the pet store, it's better to ask that sneaky lady."

The four gathered around, Yuan Tai asked directly, the young woman was startled, and hastily denied that the snapping turtle was hers.

Mitsuhiko accused: "Don't deny it, it's the big sister who abandoned that big snapping turtle."

Ayumi asked, "Why, big sister?"

"Me," the young woman hesitated, "my boyfriend came to my apartment yesterday and was startled by it, he doesn't like reptiles, so..."

Huiyuan understood: "So that's how it is, there is someone who makes you no longer alone."

Mitsuhiko accused: "But no matter what the reason is, this abandonment..."

"I'm sorry, but I really can't keep it anymore." The young woman ran away after finishing speaking.

"Stop." Yuan Tai wanted to chase, when there was a voice, someone was speaking loudly, claiming the big snapping turtle.

"I'm sorry, I live in Nihonmatsu, 3rd Chome. I accidentally let it escape yesterday. I really didn't expect it to come here. Please, please catch it as soon as possible and let me take it back. "

Haibara, Genta, Mitsuhiko, and Ayumi looked at each other, what's going on? A turtle has two owners?

Four people ran over, it was a tall young man.

Ayumi asked, "Big brother, is that turtle really yours?"

Er Bensong smiled and said, "It's true, this kind of turtle is rare."

Yuan Tai questioned: "This is strange, just now a big sister said that she threw it away yesterday."

Nihonmatsu's face changed, "No, isn't it?"

Ayumi yelled, "Ah, you lied!"

"Shh..." Er Bensong hurriedly gestured, using his bandaged fingers.

Haibara asked, "Hey, why do you say it's your turtle?"

"Is this?" Er Bensong scratched his head and said, "It's actually for atonement."

"Atonement?" Yuan Tai confirmed.

Nihonmatsu said sadly: "When I was a child, I bought a little green turtle to keep, but later I found it more and more troublesome to take care of it, so I finally threw it into this pond one day."

"I heard that a large snapping turtle was found in this pond. I thought it must have been thrown away by someone else. The tortoise did not do anything wrong. I thought it was very pitiful, so I wanted to take it back and adopt it. Turtle apologize."

"So that's how it is," Mitsuhiko cried emotionally, "You are such a good person."

Hui Yuan said: "It's just right, the lady who abandoned this tortoise no longer wants this tortoise, so you can take it back and take good care of it."

"Really?" Nihonmatsu was overjoyed.

Mitsuhiko was also very excited, "This is also the happiest ending for this snapping turtle, Mr. Nihonmatsu, you will definitely take good care of it, right?"

"Yeah." Er Bensong nodded vigorously.

At this moment, an accident happened suddenly.

"Ah, another one appeared."

"Two big snapping turtles!"

"No, no, there are also here."

"That's three?"

"Look, it's there too."

"Ah, there are four, there are four big snapping turtles!"

"how so?"

"I didn't know it at all before."

"It's terrible. Doesn't this pool lead to America?"

"How can it be!"

"Just kidding."

The crowd of onlookers made noises one after another, pointing out the location of the four snapping turtles, and Erbensong was dumbfounded.

The person in the animal management department asked dumbfoundedly: "Mr. Nihonmatsu, which one is your tortoise?"

Er Bensong hesitated for a moment, gritted his teeth and said, "Well, forget it, please give me all the big snapping turtles in this pond."

"All, all?" The people in the animal management department were surprised.

Nihonsong said: "Because these tortoises were all abandoned, they are very pitiful."

Mitsuhiko was moved and cried: "Mr. Nihonmatsu, you are really a kind-hearted person."

"It's, it's okay." Nihon Matsu said with a dry smile.

Haibara looked again at the man in front of him who could afford four snapping turtles, and reconfirmed that he was wearing cheap clothes. His whole body probably didn't cost 5,000 yen, which might not even be enough to feed four snapping turtles for a day. Fei, is it a low-key rich man?

At this time, a large snapping turtle was caught, locked in an iron cage, and sent to Erbongsong.

Yuan Tai came up to watch curiously, and the big snapping turtle suddenly bumped into the cage, causing Yuan Tai to fall backward in fright, and Ayumi couldn't help screaming.

Er Bensong supported Yuantai, "Be careful, it just rushes up and bites like this."

"Thank you." Yuan Tai said in shock.

Ayumi patted her chest, "It's really scary."

Nihonmatsu said: "Actually, for those who like it, it is still very cute."

Guangyan praised: "You really understand them. It must be when raising little green turtles that you learned how to raise more turtles."

Er Bensong smiled and said, "Yeah, I really like turtles."

At this time, another large snapping turtle was caught and brought in. People from the animal management department asked Ni Bensong how he planned to bring these large snapping turtles back, and whether they should help deliver them.

Er Bensong refused the help, left his contact information, and left in a hurry.

Huiyuan discovered that he did not drive after leaving the park. ...
