Chapter 1202: Buy Me A Cactus
Colonel Lin claimed they were opposite each other, but they had to turn a corner before they got to the opposite end. He had not been telling the truth all morning.
“Colonel Lin!” A young criminal police officer suddenly called out to him and said, “Our captain asked me to tell you to go and look for him after you’re done here.”
“Of course.” Colonel Lin nodded and then urged Jiang Yao. “Let’s get started. There’s a police officer at the door of the two rooms in front.”
Jiang Yao nodded and bowed her head to reach into her pocket for her phone. She walked with Colonel Lin as she sent a text message to Big Ke.
The police officer at the entrance noticed the two of them approaching. He saluted Colonel Lin before taking the initiative to unlock the door for them. He locked the door again once they entered the room.

Ah Lu peeked at the message on Big Ke’s phone. There was a message from Jiang Yao.
[Go to the market and buy me a high-quality washing board with waves.]
“Perhaps Director Jiang’s washing board is broken, and she needed to buy a new one,” Ah Lu said.
Big Ke shook his head. “That’s not right. Director Jiang is going back to school in a few days, and Young Master Lu will be transferred to a new unit. Why would she buy a new washing board?”
“In any case, Director Jiang wants you to buy it, so go ahead and do so. What’s with the questions? Director Jiang and Colonel Lin are in the Police Crime Squad, and I am here to keep an eye on them. You may go out and buy it,” Ah Lu said.
“Oh,” Big Ke muttered, scratching his brow. Then he opened the door and was about to exit the vehicle. A new text message arrived on his phone in a matter of seconds. He saw that it was from Jiang Yao, so he opened it immediately. When he saw it, he was dumbfounded; he continued to poke Ah Lu’s arm.
“What do you think Director Jiang is trying to do?” Big Ke’s confused expression became even more apparent.
Ah Lu snatched Big Ke’s phone and examined it.
[I no longer require the washing board. Instead, get me a cactus. I do not want it if it is too small. It should be as big and as long as the washing board.]
Ah Lu was speechless. He handed the phone back to Big Ke silently. “Is it popular to use cactus to wash clothes instead of a washing board? Is it cleaner to wash clothes like that?”
“Are you retarded?” Big Ke looked at Ah Lu with disdain. “Using cactus to wash clothes will damage your clothes!”

“Where can I find a cactus the size of a washing board?” Big Ke shook his head. “How can there be such a large cactus sold in the market?”
“I don’t care about that. Director Jiang asked you to go buy it, not me.” Ah Lu laughed gloatingly.
Jiang Yao put her phone away after she sent the second message as she entered the room. She was dressed in a white down jacket with an evident coffee stain, but she was unaffected by it.
“You have five minutes.” Colonel Lin returned to the door and motioned for Jiang Yao to take a seat.
“Don’t tell me that I have to give them my number so that they can return it later, and then I’d have to identify them while keeping an eye on them?” Jiang Yao asked suspiciously.
“How can that be? If that’s the case, even if I give you two more pairs of eyes, it won’t be enough.” Colonel Lin shook his head. “Don’t worry; there’s no such thing.”
