Chapter 5: The Bartender
At the back of the introduction is a large stack of photos, all of which are taken by some bartenders who go in and out of various venues, some are drugs, some are drunk, and some are talking to people. Until the last one, Lang Zhe stopped, and in the photo, the bartender was blindfolded, lying on a beach with his hands and feet tied, and the bullet holes on his head were very eye-catching.
"Dead?" Lang Zhe asked, his words a little incredulous
"Dead. I just received the news 2 days ago, and he was also dead, so we found out his true information. Shao Hua said.
"Where did you die?"
"In Thailand, it is said that the local fishermen discovered and reported the crime, but the place where the crime occurred was not the first scene. ”
"Have you found the killer?"
"The Thai police closed the case on the grounds of gang fighting, and the background of characters like Chen Feng was somewhat involved with the gangsters, and the police were not willing to investigate the entanglements between the gangsters for this gangster, and besides, the police did not find Chen Feng's family, so the case was hastily closed. Shao Hua glanced at Lang Zhe from the rearview mirror and continued: "The real cause of Chen Feng's death is already continuing to be investigated over there, and I got the exact news this morning, the day before Chen Feng's death, he met with a person named "Fox", and then Chen Feng died. ”
"Fox?"
"It's unclear who this fox really is, it's being investigated. ”
"How long has Chen Feng been in Thailand?"
"It's been more than 3 months. ”
"Hmm. Lang Zhe held the photo in his hand, and for a while, his brain was a little confused, why did this bartender not go to Thailand in the Netherlands, why did he have a relationship with the Thai underworld, and why was he suddenly killed.
Daniel listened inexplicably from the beginning, the story described by the two bosses was like a homicide, Daniel felt a chill down his spine when he heard it, and saw that the atmosphere in the car was extremely solemn, and couldn't help but ask: "Who is Chen Feng?"
"Wine.."
"Daniel, you get off at the metro station in front. Lang Zhe deliberately interrupted Shao Hua's words. Shao Hua sighed in his heart, sooner or later, Daniel would know, why didn't he make it clear now.
Daniel stood at the door of the subway station with a desperate face carrying his suitcase in his hand, looking at the Mercedes-Benz that was leaving, and blamed himself for talking too much, he just pretended to be asleep in the car! Thinking of this, Daniel couldn't wait to cut his mouth.
Lang Zhe in the car closed the information and said, "Who do you guess I saw on campus?"
"Who?"
"Deputy Minister of Commerce. ”
"Luo Hui?"
"Yes. ”
"The VIP members of this campus are all foreign business celebrities. What is an official from China's Ministry of Commerce doing in this Vanity Fair?"
"Campus is secretly a good place for smuggling and money laundering by officials and bigwigs, seeing that he is so familiar with everyone in the circle, is he really here to engage in scientific and technological research exchanges? I'm not, is he?"
"Isn't that so?"
"When he saw me, he knew that I was already a member of their black ship, and understood the rules of their circle, so he naturally didn't need to hide it, he was hiding, and he still needed to cooperate in the future. ”
Shao Hua nodded, and then asked the question in his heart: "The 125 incident.."
"It is not known if it has anything to do with him. Lang Zhe's tone was calm, and after taking a sip of water, he said, "I'm going to Thailand, help me arrange it." ”
"You're going to investigate the bartender's case yourself"
"The bartender is the key person in the 125 incident, but now he is dead, and now this matter is getting more and more confusing, I have to investigate it myself, you don't care about this matter, just help me manage the company." ”
"Do you suspect that Chen Feng's death was killed because of the 125 incident?"
"No matter what the reason, Chen Feng is carrying too many secrets, and if he doesn't investigate why he died, 125 won't be able to carry out the next step of the investigation. ”
"But it's too dangerous for you to go alone, it's not appropriate. Shao Hua firmly objected.
Lang Zhe smiled, "There is no danger or danger, I have experienced life and death." You just need to notify the other side to dock. ”
I wanted to say something more, but Shao Hua was interrupted by Lang Zhe's mobile phone ringtone, the phone rang for a while, Lang Zhe didn't answer, Shao Hua knew that the owner of the call should be Xue Xin.
"Take it, they've been thinking about you for a few days. Shao Hua said with a smile
Helplessly, Lang Zhe finally pressed the call button, "Ah Zhe, you're back, today Shao Hua said to pick you up at the airport, I thought you should have business to discuss, so I didn't come to pick you up." ”
"Nothing. ”
"It's good that I'll go to your house that night, I haven't been to see Uncle Long for a long time, and I even bought a bottle of red wine today, and I plan to drink it with you when you come back. ”
"I have made an appointment with Shao Hua today. ”
"Ahh This.." There was a disappointed voice on the phone, and when Lang Zhe was about to say goodbye, Shao Hua preemptively said: "Xinzi, you come to Asakusa to eat together at night, anyway, the two of us are not interesting." ”
On the other end of the phone, as soon as he heard this, he was happy, and replied, "Okay, I'll pack up now and go to Asakusa to wait for you." Azhe, I'll see you later. ”
Seeing that Lang Zhe had accepted the phone, Shao Hua immediately said: "They are all old friends, and it won't be in the way to get together." ”
"Really?"
"You said that you are old, this person's life events should also be thought about, you don't want to, you also have to think about Uncle Lang, your parents are old, and they still look forward to you getting married as soon as possible. ”
"I'm afraid I don't have this blessing. Lang Zhe smiled bitterly
"You are the best blessed! Who is Xinzi, the pearl of the famous Professor Xue, and I have liked you wholeheartedly for more than ten years, even if you are a stone, you should be pierced by this warm current. ”
"Alright, I'll sleep, call me when it's time. ”
There was some darkness, and when it came, it was all unprepared.
Asakusa is located in the suburbs of W City a Japanese high-end restaurant, formerly an ancient house, Tengchong Xiaolang first to W City when he traveled, inadvertently fell in love with this quaint house, so he spent a lot of money to buy this ancient house, on the basis of maintaining the original antique architectural tone of the ancient house, the interior of the house was slightly renovated, and now there is a low-key and elegant Asakusa restaurant. And Tengchong Xiaolang named this "Asakusa" not because of the lively street called Asakusa in his hometown, but from the poet Bai Juyi's "Flowers gradually become charming, and Asakusa can have no horseshoe". I hope that everyone who comes can fall in love with this old scenery like Xiaolang
After listening to Shao Hua's introduction, Lang Zhe felt a little turbulent in his heart, this gray and simple house hides the vicissitudes of the times, and exudes the elegance of the years. For myself, whose memories are all black and white, only here can I have a touch of color.
"Ah Zhe, what do you think" Seeing Lang Zhe, who was a little distracted, Xue Xin, who was sitting next to him, called softly
"Oh, nothing"
"Come, let's take a look, what do you want to eat, I'm in for a treat today" Shao Hua smiled and handed the menu to the two in front of him, today's Xue Xin, wearing a black sleeveless dress, stepping on a pair of high-end exquisite high heels, wearing earrings of the same color that echo the high heels, wearing exquisite makeup, Xue Xin, who was originally thin, looked more temperamental after wearing such a simple and generous one. Even Shao Hua couldn't secretly marvel, Xue Xin was indeed a great beauty, but Lang Zhe didn't seem to have any reaction to the beautiful woman in front of him from the moment he entered the door, and Shao Hua couldn't understand why Lang Zhe treated Xue Xin so coldly and indifferently.
"Okay, then Brother Shao Hua, I'll help Ah Zhe order it together, you know that he never understands when he orders. Xue Xin said with a smile, and then ordered a few dishes that Lang Zhe likes to eat, and then said: "Ah Zhe, over the years, there have been a lot of changes, and the shrimp that I didn't eat when I was killed when I was a child now likes it very much." ”
"Yes, I remember once when I was a child, the school cafeteria finally made boiled shrimp for everyone, Ah Zhe threw all these shrimps, beat them to death and didn't eat them, after the head teacher knew, he punished Ah Zhe for standing in the corner and forced him to eat, but he didn't eat it. ”
"Yes, I remember that time, Ah Zhe's face was red, he covered his mouth tightly, and said in his mouth, Lao Xu killed someone, help! When Xue Xin said this, she couldn't help laughing
"Hahahaha, yes, yes, in the end, it was Ji Chen's kid who stood up and snatched the shrimp in Lao Xu's hand and ate it all in one go. ”
"It seems to be, I don't remember" As soon as she heard the name "Ji Chen", Xue Xin restrained her expression and replied coldly.
Lang Zhe didn't care about the two talking about Ji Chen in front of them at first, but Xue Xin's cold sentence didn't remember, but it made Lang Zhe angry all of a sudden, and Shao Hua, who noticed the change in Lang Zhe's face, subconsciously tightened his heart, and hurriedly changed the topic and said: "Ah Zhe, how is Uncle Lang's health in recent days?"
Lang Zhe didn't pay attention to Shao Hua, but turned his head to look at Xue Xin, his expression made Xue Xin afraid, "You have such a beautiful face, why do you have such a dirty heart." ”
Xue Xin was stunned for a moment, she didn't know how to speak for a long time, tears were disturbed in her eyes, "What's the matter, this, a good meal, what are you doing!" Shao Hua's tone was a little serious, and he was a little annoyed in his heart that he forgot that he couldn't mention Ji Chen in front of the two of them.
"Miss Xue, I advise you to be kind, otherwise you may not be able to afford the consequences. ”
Hearing Lang Zhe's inexplicable words and seeing his suppressed anger, Xue Xin suddenly felt that he had been wronged, dressed up seriously, and drove here for more than 1 hour to meet him, he turned out to be such an attitude, so he cried and said: "What's wrong with me!!Did I do something unseemly??Are you wrong for you to treat me like this!!! I love you!!!
Lang Zhe smiled bitterly: "Shao Hua, let's get together next time for today's meal." After speaking, he walked straight out, Xue Xin saw Lang Zhe leaving, and shouted emotionally: "Why are you doing this to me!!! Ji Chen didn't kill me!!!
After hearing this, Lang Zhe silently clenched his fists, stayed for half a second, and then walked away. Xue Xin, who hid her face and cried, and Shao Hua, who looked embarrassed, were left.
Late at night, Lang Zhe returned home, he collapsed weakly on the sofa, and in the dark, he took out a group photo from his wallet, which was Ji Chen and Lang Zhe wearing school uniforms.
At the same time, a woman in a short black skirt dialed a phone call in her house, and on the phone, the woman said coldly: "Did you leak the news about that incident?"
After the man on the other end said a few words, the woman said again: "I don't care what you do, Lang Zhe must not know what we do." Otherwise, you won't get a penny. Then, the woman hung up the phone, and when the woman turned around, she dialed another phone, "Brother Shao Hua, thank you for sending me back today." ”
"Out of the way, Xinzi, Azheta... Forget it, you rest early. ”
"Good Night"
