Chapter 52: A Few Suspicious People
Jiang Xia was very familiar with the few important criminals wanted by the Executive Bureau not far from Jiang Xia's table, even if they turned to ashes, Jiang Xia could still recognize them, they were gathered around the table in twos and threes, drinking wine, and they looked very at ease.
The leader was a middle-aged man in his forties wearing a black leather jacket and a large black cigar in his mouth, holding a beer bottle with half a glass left in his hand, and his arms on the table, giving people the air of a black boss.
The other people at the table, seeing that this eldest brother was so arrogant, bowed down to the younger brother in their hearts, and said some courteous words in their mouths, all of which were on good terms with this boss.
This middle-aged man wearing a black leather jacket and a big black cigar in his mouth is the local black boss in the Executive Bureau who has been wanted by his superiors for a long time - Xiang Long, who specializes in doing evil in the Baihu District of the city, because of the variety of methods, even the local police are helpless about it.
People on the road like to call him Brother Long, and he also likes this kind of name, and he feels that he is in line with such a reputation.
There are a lot of dishes ordered at that table, because they are quite close, Jiang Xia can see what kind of dishes are ordered, they are nothing more than some high-end dishes, such as what delicacies from the mountains and seas, lobster, abalone and the like, quite a lot.
But even so, it is still difficult to say whether this Brother Long will give money after eating, but if you think that this restaurant is also a famous restaurant, even if Xiang Long has the ability, he will not have the courage.
The people who ate with Xiang Long were all characters who had something to do with the wanted warrant, just take the two young people in their twenties sitting on either side of Xiang Long, their backgrounds were very big, and besides, the two were still brothers.
The one on the left is called Liang Deng, and the one on the right is called Liang Hui, both of whom follow Xiang Long, specializing in doing some "little things" that Xiang Long doesn't do, or forcibly demolishing, or buying off some C City officials who have no bottom line, so as to do things.
Xiang Long is engaged in black business related to real estate, which is well known to everyone in City C, so most of the people who come into contact with him are related to real estate.
Sitting around another table to eat and the national army was in full swing, Jiang Xia didn't know where the barracks were, but the reason why he could see that these people were from the barracks was completely from their every move and physique.
First of all, they are all about 25 to 30 years old, and they are a group of people, as you can imagine, they are a group of social gangsters, or a group of office people who have worked for a long time to come to the party.
But despite this, the behavior of these people is very civilized, educated, and not flustered at all, but they feel very calm, not like office workers, polite, and not like gangsters, revealing the feeling of moving hands and feet in their bones.
But what caught Jiang Xia's attention the most was that the military shirt inside one of them was exposed, it was not very obvious, that person probably noticed the exposed military shirt, and his hands were restless and wanted to stuff the shirt inside.
But the strange thing is that at this time, it is impossible for the people in the barracks to come out, after all, it is not the time of the weekend, although today is the open day of the barracks, but it is not possible for those national troops to come and go at will.
"Hey, what are you looking at? Jiang Xia, what? Do you know them? Hehe, his name is Brother Long, many people have to give him face, he has done a lot of good things in Xuanwu District, and many people don't have time to repay him. ”
Chu Xiao looked at Jiang Xia and looked at the place not far away, then leaned closer, followed his line of sight, patted her on the shoulder, and asked.
And Zhang Xiao, who was on the side, was like a foodie, holding chopsticks and searching for dishes that met his appetite on the table, and he didn't care at all about Chu Xiao's movements around him, what he was doing, and what his movements were.
Being asked by Chu Xiao like this, Jiang Xia came back to her senses, she turned her head to look at the table, only to find that the dishes had already been served, and the hot air permeated the table, exuding a tempting aroma of taste buds, Zhang Xiao was in front of her favorite squirrel fish, and in front of her happened to be the meat she hated the most.
Jiang Xia looked at Chu Xiao, she could hear what Chu Xiao meant by 'repay', not a compliment, but a derogatory, and she could also see from his expression that he was very dissatisfied with Xiang Long, so he smiled back.
"It's not that I know each other, I just looked at them and looked very powerful there, and I thought they were domineering, so I looked at them twice, and by the way, is he really as good as you say? ”
As soon as the words came out, Chu Xiao covered his head and laughed, but the voice was not too loud, he still had some respect, for fear that it would arouse Zhang Xiao's contempt, and he was afraid that it would attract Xiang Long's attention, so he could still speak as quietly as possible.
"You say he's good? I really don't know where you saw it, if he was a good person, there would really be no good people in City C, and there were still a lot of people who liked him, but they were all embarrassed people. ”
The last sentence, he said very delicately, as if he was afraid of being heard by someone, and as if he was afraid of being known by someone, but there was still a little anger on his face.
After hearing this, Jiang Xia pretended to know the same and nodded, in fact, she had known it for a long time, and the reason why she said this was just to pretend that she didn't understand it. But after hearing this, Jiang Xia picked up the chopsticks on the table, picked up a piece of meat casually, and put it in his mouth, pretending to be very curious about Chu Xiao's words on the surface.
"Well, I don't know if you don't say it, it turns out that he's such a person, uh-huh. ”
"Sister Zhihui, there is no class tomorrow, what are you going to do? Or, let's go to the zoo together tomorrow, I heard that a group of grass and mud horses have recently come to the zoo in Xuanwu District, why don't you go and see it together?"
Lan Wei's face turned to Chen Zhihui, and while holding the dish, she asked Chen Zhihui, who was sitting opposite, as if she was talking normally.
Chen Zhihui looked up at Lan Wei, pouted, thought for a moment, chewed beef slices in her mouth, and then replied.
"It's okay to go to the zoo, but I don't like grass and mud horses, I like giant pandas, giant pandas are very cute, by the way, isn't there a physical education class tomorrow?
"It's raining tomorrow, so sports won't go and we can go to the zoo. ”
After hearing this, Chen Zhihui felt strange and incredible, frowned, looked at Lan Wei's confident face, and asked if it was a rainy day, how could she go to the zoo?
"It's going to rain tomorrow? Are you sure you can go to the zoo?"
", it's raining tomorrow, Mom, I didn't take medicine today, I forgot about it, forget it, it's really bad luck, come on, I'll still eat it at home*, hey. ”
As she spoke, Lan Wei held the chopsticks and stuffed the vegetables into her mouth with a depressed face, with a sad face, holding her cheek with one hand, and looking a little decadent.
"Is there any wine, open a bottle of wine, how boring it is without wine?"
Chen Zhihui threw away the chopsticks in her hand, looked at the table, and then looked at the side of the table, and asked anxiously.
"Wine, I know that Sister Zhihui likes wine, so I deliberately ordered a bottle, which is Sister Zhihui's favorite Changyu Jiebaina, hehe. ”
Ming Ming, who was sitting on the side, smiled and took out a bottle of red wine hidden at his feet, looked at Chen Zhihui with an anxious face, and said with a smile.
Changyu Cabernet is a bottle of high-end red wine, although Jiangxia has never drunk, but I heard that this is a high-end brand of Kyushu wine, it uses snake dragon pearl as the main raw material, the aroma is rich, with a typical pepper, blackcurrant fruit aroma, there is a fresh grass smell cut after the rain.
Chen Zhihui took the wine, but she looked proud, this is one of Chen Zhihui's most proud wines, but it is the most favorite red wine, the dark black posture, before the bottle is opened, it exudes a special fragrance.
"Do you want it?" Jiang Xia?"
"Okay, let's have a drink. ”
Saying that, Jiang Xia put the cup in front of Chen Zhihui, and the moment Chen Zhihui pulled the cap of the bottle, a really tempting fragrance emanated from the bottle, tempting people's taste buds.
The cup was as red as blood, Jiang Xia took the cup and looked at it in front of her, she had drunk it once with Chen Zhihui when she met Xu Yi before, but she felt that the wine that time was not as rich as the wine this time, so she wanted to drink it, perhaps, because this was the relationship between Changyu and Baina.
Red wine into the stomach, but there is a feeling that has never been felt, lingering taste lingering in the throat, this fresh grass smell cut after the rain, so that Jiangxia's taste buds are refreshed, into the stomach, I feel that the body is warm and warm, straight to the heart, soothing the pain in the heart......
But suddenly, this feeling of soothing the pain in his heart turned into a piercing pain, as if there was a knife pierced in his heart, the tip of the knife was very sharp, and he couldn't pull it out, and suddenly Jiang Xia hurriedly covered his chest and bent over in pain.
"What's the matter, are you alright? Do you want to go to the hospital?"
"It's okay, I'll just go to the bathroom. ”
Chen Zhihui saw Jiang Xia's strange appearance, so she hurriedly asked, but she also felt worried about this, since she was holding her chest, could it be that she had a heart attack? Only then did she plan to go to the hospital, but for the sake of Jiang Xia's resolute part, Chen Zhihui didn't say anything, so she let her go.
Walking on the crowded path with her chest covered, her face was very yellow and ugly, and her chest hurt so much that Jiang Xia couldn't straighten her waist, so she had to bend like this, it looked very strange, she felt that her body was hot, her hair was also very itchy, her whole body was itching, and even her organs felt that they were hurting.
"Oh, sorry, didn't see it. ”
A middle-aged man wearing a black top hat who looked like a foreigner was greeted by him, and he accidentally bumped into Jiang Xia's shoulder, which instinctively made Jiang Xia say sorry first, but the pain made her not raise her head, still looking down, looking at the foot of the person who hit her.
"Sir, miss, you don't have to say sorry first, I'm the one who should say sorry. ”
Kyushu Chinese, who was fluent but still felt that the accent was wrong, came out of the mouth of this middle-aged man, Jiang Xia was confused at that time, this familiar accent, although he had only heard it once, was already familiar and could not be more familiar, but what is Mr. or Miss? Can't you see it?
