Saturday morning.

7:50 a.m.

Diagonally across from the Seremban precinct, a barbershop is bustling with activity, with many people dressed as cartoon puppets handing out flyers and balloons on the side of the road.

Some are lying directly in the middle of the road.

Passers-by receive small gifts from passers-by, so this store is also very popular.

In the office of the third criminal investigation group, many police officers were lying on the window looking at the barber shop, and they couldn't help but be amazed.

"Isn't this barbershop the 'magic barbershop' that Master Kong said before?

"It seems that what Master Kong said is right, at that level, who would dare to go over there for a haircut, and the customer is not a fool, the last time will definitely not be the second time. ”

"Bobo Hair Studio?New signboard?Did you change the boss?The previous boss doesn't seem to be called Bobo, right?"

"Isn't it called Tony?"

"Is this a trial operation? Isn't it a loss to send so many things?"

"Publicity, there must be some blood, if there are potato chips, I guarantee that Lu Weiwei will definitely go. ”

"Haha, take the risk, who dares to be the first to try?"

"No matter how bad the board is, what can it be? Why don't you get off work?"

Just when everyone was teasing each other, Lu Weiwei walked in with a balloon, smiled and said, "What are you talking about?"

"Lu Weiwei. He Junchao looked at the balloon in Lu Weiwei's hand, and couldn't help but ask her curiously: "Where did you get this thing in your hand?"

"The barber shop on the other side sent it, and the balloons were sent when they received the flyers, and the shop was very arrogant. Lou Weiwei put the flyer aside and put the balloon in her pen holder.

Other police officers immediately gathered around and took leaflets to take a closer look.

"Damn, VIP charge 200 get 200, charge 400 get 400 free?"

"Heroic, this store is so generous?"

"I don't know what the level is, will it be the same as what happened to Master Kong at the beginning?"

"Master Kong, that's a strange thing, it is estimated that a few apprentices in the big store ran out to open it, but they don't look at what place it is, this is a high-end residential area, there is no technical level, and it really can't be opened. ”

"Then this Bobo barber studio, since it is called a studio, presumably the barbers in it should be a bit level. ”

"Then charge 200 and get 200 free, and charge 400 and get 400 free seems to be quite cost-effective. ”

"Do any of you want to get a haircut?"

Everyone was looking for the test sample, but suddenly their eyes stayed on Gu Chen's head.

Several people touched He Junchao's shoulder, He Junchao immediately understood, and then came to Gu Chen's side.

"Gu Chen, I see that your hair is quite long, why don't you try it at noon?"

"Is there one?" Gu Chen touched his head, and then smiled: "It seems that I haven't had a haircut for a long time." ”

"That's just right, you can try it at noon, and the effect is good, let's go there to recharge." He Junchao saw that Gu Chen was willing, and he was relieved.

Everyone is really curious, and the reason is simple, that is, after listening to Master Kong tell about his tragic experience of entering the barber shop in the cafeteria before, everyone has always avoided the barber shop diagonally opposite.

And this time it seems that the owner has changed, and the store has been renovated, so everyone is looking forward to it.

"I'll go at noon, too. Officer Wang put the recent file on the table, yawned and said, "It's time to get a haircut, otherwise you won't look energetic." ”

"Mouse +2. He Junchao muttered silently in his heart.

Lu Weiwei saw that Lao Wang and Gu Chen were going, and she was also curious about the newly opened barber shop, so she also said, "Since you both go, then let's go together at noon?"

"Yes. Gu Chen smiled.

And He Junchao was excited, and silently muttered in his heart: "Mouse +3." ”

......

......

At noon, everyone rushed to their respective police quarters after lunch.

And Gu Chen, Lu Weiwei and Officer Wang made an appointment to go to the barber shop opposite.

To be honest, a lot of gifts and leaflets were distributed in the morning, but there were not many people at noon.

A barber is giving a haircut to an old man.

While the rest of the staff sat around playing with their mobile phones, leisurely and casually.

Seeing Gu Chen, Lu Weiwei and Officer Wang in uniform, come to the store, a shampoo apprentice immediately put down his mobile phone and stepped forward to greet him: "Three haircuts?"

"Why are you here without a haircut?" Gu Chen also looked left and right, still satisfied with the decoration environment of the barbershop, and couldn't help but smile and said: "My senior sister also received a small gift from your barber shop in the morning, so I came to take a look, your shop is newly opened, right?

"What about the shop before?" A barber who was working couldn't help but smile at Gu Chen and said, "The owner of the barber shop before is gone, transfer the shop to our boss, isn't it that it has been renovated before, and it will be open for trial operation today." ”

"The boss's name is Bobo?" Officer Wang also saw that the name of the shop was 'Bobo Barber Studio', so he couldn't help but ask more.

"Yes. A tall, thin man with a ponytail and a beard walked down from the second end.

Seeing that the people who came were three policemen, their attitude was also very polite: "It turned out to be three police comrades." ”

"Are you the boss of Bobo?" Lu Weiwei looked at him, couldn't help but smile and said, "Anyway, let the Tony teacher in your store come to give us a haircut?"

"Tony?" As soon as they heard the name, all the barbers instantly blackened their faces, and they didn't know how to answer for a while.

And the boss Bobo smiled bitterly and said, "We don't have Tony in the store, maybe you can call me Bobo the barber." ”

"Okay Mr. Tony. Lu Weiwei couldn't help but joke with him.

Of course, the boss Bobo didn't mind, and asked the other two shampoo apprentices to wash the hair of the three policemen with him.

Subsequently, Gu Chen, Lu Weiwei and Officer Wang were lying on the soft sleeper behind the curtain, leaning their heads on the side of the shampoo pool to clean up.

The two apprentices were quite professional in their hair washing techniques, and after washing their hair, they would also press on the acupuncture points on the head of several people, which made Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei feel relaxed.

After all, I have been to a lot of barber shops, and I have done a lot of fingering on my head.

But only in this new store, the feelings of the two can only be expressed in two words, that is, "professional." ”

The boss, Bobo, personally served Officer Wang, who was comfortable and didn't want it, squinting his eyes from time to time to enjoy everything.

"Female police officer. The boss Bobo pressed Officer Wang while looking at Lu Weiwei, and couldn't help but ask curiously: "Do you have a shadow on Tony?"

"Count...... Yes?" Lu Weiwei couldn't say for sure, and said with a smile: "But don't you all have a barber named Tony in your barbershop?"

"Huh. Boss Bobo couldn't help laughing twice, and said: "Don't say it, I once had an apprentice named Tony, not only named Tony, but also named Kevin, Allen, anyway, they definitely don't want to use these names now." ”

"Is it very easy for Mr. Bobo to engage in this business?" Gu Chen asked.

"It's okay. Bobo nodded and said with a smile: "It's only about fifteen years." ”

"That's a master. Gu Chen said.

Boss Bobo washed his hands and asked the apprentice next to him to wash Officer Wang's hair, while he sat aside and joked: "Actually, why do we hairstylists have to be called Tony? This question is not only incomprehensible to this female police officer, but also myself." ”

"I've been in the hairdressing business for a few years, and I don't know when Tony suddenly became synonymous with our hairstylist. ”

"It's popular on the Internet. Lu Weiwei explained.

"Well, that's right. Boss Bobo nodded and said, "Nowadays on the Internet, when talking about barbers, you may not necessarily think of Tony, but there is a very strange phenomenon, as long as you say Tony, you will definitely think of him as a barber." ”

"Haha, that's true. Officer Wang took the towel and wiped his head, then sat down next to Boss Bobo and chatted with him: "Then have you ever thought about why?"

"Of course I did. Teacher Bobo cocked Erlang's legs and couldn't help complaining: "I'm just thinking, why is this?

"I recalled doing hairdressing for so many years all the way, and after reading the information on the Internet, I found that the hairstylists who took English names back then were all to show that they had status, status, and class. ”

But they never dreamed that as long as they were called Teacher Tony, their status and status would be all gone, but they would still feel very low. ”

"Then, through careful thinking, I made a major discovery, it turned out that most of our hairdressers back then were not highly educated, and Chinese was not completely understood, so I wanted to take an English name. ”

"Of course not, I can only imitate the protagonists of foreign movies. ”

That's why Tony, Kevin, and Allen became the big three of barbershops. ”

"Once upon a time, almost every store had these three people, hehe. ”

Boss Bobo smiled self-deprecatingly, and then said, "Oh yes, there is another one, do you know what is the most infuriating?"

Gu Chen wiped his head and looked at Lu Weiwei curiously, and Lu Weiwei also shook her head and looked at Officer Wang.

Officer Wang smiled bitterly and said, "How do I know this? Is there anything more annoying than three names?"

"Of course there is. Boss Bobo slapped his face, leaned over to Officer Wang's side, and said, "The cat and the mouse know, right? ”

Officer Wang couldn't help but lean back: "So exaggerated?"

"Of course, I won't lie to you. This little mouse became the fourth big man in the barbershop that year, and that was Jerry. ”

"Poof!" Lu Weiwei couldn't help it, and laughed directly: "This is so interesting, I only knew that there were more people named Tony before, but I didn't expect that there would be people who used Little Mouse as their English name? Haha, this is so interesting." ”

Gu Chen also smiled: "What about Tom Cat? Has this Bobo teacher studied it?"

"Tom can't. Boss Bobo also waved his hand and explained: "What about this Tom cat, because his image is too stupid, so he was spared, otherwise he would definitely become the fifth giant." ”

Speaking of this, Mr. Bobo also stomped his feet: "Oh, you say, why bother thinking about it now?"

"Originally, I wanted to give myself an English name to look very foreign, but it turned out to be foreign, do you say angry or not?"

"So this can be regarded as a culture in the barber industry, right?" Gu Chen said.

"Culture is culture. Mr. Bobo did not deny it, and said directly: "What is the result? It's even more panicked now, whether you want to or not, our hairdresser is a Tony in everyone's mind." ”

After a pause, Boss Bobo pointed to himself again and said, "Just like me, every time I introduce to customers, hello everyone, I am Bobo the barber, and finally the customers all ask me, where is Mr. Tony?

Lu Weiwei couldn't help but laugh and said, "It's like I was joking with you just now?"

"Yes, that's it. Mr. Bobo nodded, and said: "Generally, when encountering such a situation, I will politely reply, hello, I am Bobo, the barber, who knows if the customer will reply at this time, Bobo Toni, what kind of hairstyle do you think I am suitable for?

"Haha. Lu Weiwei, who had washed her long hair, dried her hair and stood up and came to the hall with everyone.

Gu Chen sat by the door and couldn't help asking, "Has Teacher Bobo ever thought about it, or has he thought about it, why is Tony so much?"

It was also because Gu Chen saw that this Bobo boss seemed to be an academic and liked to study why, so he asked him casually.

"Why are there so many hairstylists named Tony?" Boss Bobo scratched his head and said with a wry smile, "Don't say it, I really have researched, the police want to hear it?"

"I want to hear about it. Gu Chen said.

Boss Bobo nodded and said, "There may be two relationships, one is easier to remember, and the other is that there is a hairdressing chain called Tony Gai, so it is easier for us to translate into Chinese." ”

"So, there are a lot of people who call Tony, but not every barber is called Tony, okay? So thank you to the police comrades, I, the barber, Bobo, please call me the barber, don't call me Tony, okay? Thank you. ”

"Got Jerry. Lu Weiwei said.

Gu Chen also smiled: "So Mr. Tony, where else do you have a branch? Another day, I will ask Jerry to go to Kevin together and ask him to introduce us to Alan and give us a Tom cat haircut." ”

"Tony's (thanks to you), make me handsome. Officer Wang also joined in the ridicule.

There was another burst of laughter in the barbershop, and the other barbers were happy.

Boss Bobo gave Gu Chen a haircut first, mainly because Gu Chen's hairstyle was short, easy to take care of, and it was good to save time.

Originally, Gu Chen's face shape was very good, and Boss Bobo didn't even need to pay special attention to trimming his hair according to Gu Chen's face shape.

If you use the barber casually, you can give Gu Chen a good hairstyle.

Looking at the satisfactory work in front of him, Boss Bobo smiled and said, "I said this police officer, can I use you as a poster and stick it on the wall as a hair model?" I feel that your hairstyle is very representative. ”

"No thanks. Gu Chen didn't think about it and directly refused.

"Don't you think about it? I can pay it. "Boss Bobo wants to hold on a little longer.

However, Gu Chen's attitude was still the same, still refusing......

So Boss Bobo gave up, smiled and said, "I just think you have a good image, if only you could give me publicity." ”

"Mr. Bobo. When Gu Chen walked to the shampoo room, he turned his head and smiled at him: "If you have good skills, not to mention anything else, the hundreds of people in our police force are all your customers, and the surrounding areas are high-end residential areas, if you can open up fame in our police force, then you can also open up popularity in this area." ”

"That's right, but I'm still confident in my skills. After Mr. Bobo finished speaking, he stared at Officer Wang again and said, "Now it's the turn of this officer, come on." ”

After Gu Chen washed his head in the bathroom, the shampoo apprentice dried Gu Chen's hair, but at this moment, Gu Chen noticed that there were a few sketch pictures on the cash register of Boss Bobo.

Gu Chen, who was already interested in sketching, walked over directly and picked up a few of them to flip through them.

"The sketch seems to be drawn by the same person, who would it be at such an age?" Gu Chen curiously picked up one and compared it with Boss Bobo.

"No, the woman in the picture doesn't seem to look like Mr. Bobo's mother, don't you say your closest relatives?" Gu Chen was also very curious, so he asked: "Boss Bobo, the sketch characters you drew are your relatives?"

Boss Bobo was also stunned, he was still talking and laughing and teasing the police just now, but now the whole person's expression has changed, and his face is suddenly difficult to look at.

"She is not my relative, but my enemy. Boss Bobo's tone was very serious, as if he had changed into a different person.

"Enemies?"

Officer Wang, who was shaving his head, also seemed to feel the anger above his head, and the atmosphere was completely wrong.

So Officer Wang also hurriedly looked back and found that Gu Chen was holding a sketch of a short-haired woman in his hand.

As can be seen from the figure in the picture, this is a woman about 65 years old, with short hair, a relatively round face, a flat nose bridge, small eyes, and a somewhat southerner face.

Out of curiosity, Officer Wang hurriedly raised his head and asked Boss Bobo: "Why is this woman your enemy?

"yes, Tony, ahhh

"This is a guy who specializes in child trafficking, and there must be at least nine children who have been trafficked in her hands, and our boss's son has been abducted at her hands. ”

The boss of Bobo didn't say anything, but a clerk informed the three of them of the situation.

Gu Chen was also stunned, and quickly looked at the sketch portrait in his hand, only to finally know why Boss Bobo was angry.

Co-authored with the sketch he has been drawing, he is the culprit who abducted and sold his son in the first place!

"Boss Bobo. Gu Chen couldn't help but ask sympathetically, "Do you know what this woman's name is?"

"I don't know. Boss Bobo also shook his head, and said with a somewhat heavy face: "But I know, everyone calls him: 'Aunt Mei'." ”
