On the second day, Lu Chuan got up early and drove out to buy supplies prepared for camping.

Going camping and having fun, it’s naturally impossible to just drive an RV and be done with it.

Last night, Lu Chuan checked that the campsite in East Sea is about 100 kilometers from the city.

Driving there takes about an hour and a half one way.

Since it’s camping, they definitely need to stay over there at night, so they’ll have to solve the meal situation themselves.

Luckily, Lu Chuan doesn’t have to purchase these things himself.

The racing circuit that Lu Yao runs has an outdoor auto equipment shop under it.

Mainly dealing with off-road vehicle modifications and equipment sales and such.

Last night, I called Lu Yao to ask what needed to be prepared for camping, and as soon as Lu Yao heard, he patted his chest directly and said he knew the ropes and that I should leave it to him.

Lu Chuan is heading this morning to the place Lu Yao mentioned to load the essentials.

Actually, the RV that Comrade Lu bought has also been specially modified, and its equipment is all complete.

Lu Yao didn’t prepare much, but he was very attentive, such as bug lights, windproof alcohol stoves, and a whole set of outdoor camping equipment.

There were also some ingredients that seemed to be freshly packaged.

The person responsible for loading items for Lu Chuan is a camping professional.

Combining the functions of Lu Chuan’s RV, they equipped everything needed.

Then explained to Lu Chuan one by one what these things are used for and how to use them.

After all, when they get to the camping site, it’s Lu Chuan who will have to deal with these things, and if he doesn’t understand them now, they won’t do any good there.

Fortunately, Lu Chuan had plenty of time, so in two hours, he figured out how to use everything, got in the RV, and went to pick up Forensic Doctor Shen.

Downstairs of the community.

Lu Chuan had just arrived not long ago when he saw Shen Yan appear at the entrance of the unit.

Today, Shen Yan was dressed particularly refreshing.

Stonewashed skinny jeans, outlining her straight and slender legs, light yellow outdoor T-shirt paired with a light gray sun-protection jacket, her curves stunning making Lu Chuan stunned.

"Dummy, what are you looking at?"

"Hehe, looking at how beautiful my wife is!"

Forensic Doctor Shen gave Lu Chuan a sidelong glance, was pulled by the hand into the RV from the side door: "This is the RV?"

Shen Yan has seen RVs occasionally running on the street, but it was the first time she actually entered the interior of an RV.

Inside, there’s a sofa, TV, double bed, it’s practically a small mobile home.

"For camping, it’s a bit more convenient to use this vehicle, I’ve already prepared the supplies in the morning, how about we have hot pot for lunch while camping?"

"Wow! That’s great!"

Shen Yan quite likes eating hot pot, but can’t handle it too spicy.

"Come on, let’s go!"

It takes about a bit over an hour by car from downtown to the East Sea camping site; the two chatted and laughed in the car while listening to cheerful music and soon arrived at the destination.

"Wow, the air here is so fresh!"

The campsite faces the sea with lush vegetation around, which has been carefully trimmed.

There are both free and paid camping sites here.

The free campsites are just parking spaces arranged together, available for anyone to use.

There are public water pickup spots around, and Lu Chuan saw many vehicles parked inside when he arrived. 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞

The paid campsites are closer to the seaside, offering a good view, with the sea in sight when you look up.

The fee varies based on the angle of the sea view.

The cheapest is three hundred yuan a day, while the most expensive can be three thousand.

Lu Chuan chose the most expensive campsite, directly facing the sea with about a hundred square meters, surrounded by shrubs isolating it from other campsites, like an independent world.

Compared to squeezing with most people, Lu Chuan prefers being alone with Forensic Doctor Shen.

For both Lu Chuan and Shen Yan, although their daily work is not particularly busy and they don’t work too much overtime, their work intensity is actually quite high.

Especially on-site investigations and forensic work, they are often the first police to face gruesome scenes.

The mental and psychological stress the job brings them is tremendous.

Moreover, often after a murder occurs, it’s the on-site investigations or forensic work that needs to provide clues based on the scene and the body to crack the case.

Opportunities and time for such a relaxed time together, living the couple’s world, are quite rare for them.

Moreover, given Shen Yan’s appearance, it wouldn’t be particularly convenient in a public camping area.

The RV has a side awning, which Lu Chuan pulled open and propped directly on the ground.

He took out the folding chairs, set up the outdoor table, and made a cup of coffee for Shen Yan.

The greatest meaning and joy of camping is to enjoy things in the wild that you usually can’t, bringing a sense of satisfaction.

Like this cup of coffee.

In the city, you can order from delivery services easily and quickly,

but at the campsite, the joy of doing it yourself makes Lu Chuan feel incredibly peaceful inside.

Forensic Doctor Shen held the coffee, sitting side by side with Lu Chuan on the folding chairs, overlooking the distant sea, and it truly had a unique charm.

At noon, Lu Chuan and Shen Yan made a light broth hotpot together.

After eating and drinking their fill, Forensic Doctor Shen patted her small belly: "I’m stuffed, let’s take a walk."

The scenery around the campsite is wonderful, with a small park, and many people were strolling around like they were in the afternoon.

Many parents brought their children along, enjoying the rare afternoon sunlight after lunch, evoking a sense of prosperous peace.

"Is Wang Feng still on vacation recently?"

Before Wang Feng had trouble, when he was still undercover, he had shared meals with Lu Chuan and met Shen Yan.

"He hasn’t been working recently, the Anti-drug Detachment has given him a long vacation, his parents are taking him around visiting relatives, wearing a police uniform every day."

This, Lu Chuan could understand.

Wang Feng was a model student since childhood and got accepted into the Public Security University, but was expelled for an undercover mission, making him someone to be kept at a distance by relatives and friends overnight.

This time, his parents weren’t going to miss the chance to hold their heads high.

The two chatted and walked from the entrance of the small park to its center gradually.

There is a fountain here, but it’s not spraying water.

Several small boys inside are collecting stones to play, occasionally throwing them at the stone statue in the middle of the fountain.

A few adults nearby were chatting, possibly recognizing each other and coming to camp together.

Lu Chuan and Shen Yan chatted as they continued walking forward.

"Tomorrow, let’s have some Western food..."

Hmm?

Lu Chuan was planning for the next day but didn’t get a response from Shen Yan.

Turning his head, he saw Shen Yan frowning slightly, staring at the stone statue in the fountain.

"What’s wrong? Do you like this statue?"

Lu Chuan knew Shen Yan had studied sculpture during her university leisure time, so he thought she liked the sculpture.

"No..."

Shen Yan’s frown deepened: "Do you hear that sound from those little boys throwing stones at the statue... does it seem kind of hollow?"

Just as Shen Yan finished speaking, a little boy happened to throw a small pebble at the statue.

Thunk!

Lu Chuan listened closely and indeed sensed emptiness, as if the inside were hollow.

"It does seem a bit hollow; could the inside of the statue be empty?"

Shen Yan, however, shook her head gravely: "Statues carved from stone like this are not supposed to be hollow inside."

"Only imitation stone sculptures are hollow inside..."

Shen Yan explained a couple of sentences, then suddenly walked towards the fountain, approached the statue, picked up a small stone, and lightly tapped the statue.

Then leaned in to listen, and a moment later, with a somewhat serious expression, she looked at Lu Chuan: "Lu Chuan, this statue... seems a little off..."
