Chapter 11: The Fog Grows

Lunch will be served at Changsheng Restaurant on Park Road.

Wen Jiulin did what he said, probably because he was used to receiving it, and for the first time, he invited Li Yiting to arrange it in a prosperous restaurant that "dignitaries and nobles" like to patronize, I don't know if he has a good face or other intentions.

Xu Jingyuan had informed them in advance that in addition to Liu Yi, Hou Yuejun (Director Hou), and Wen Jiulin, there were two other people who participated in the lunch dinner, one was Liu Shangrong, deputy director of the 6914 factory, and the other was Zhang Huaizhi, the director of the first workshop, plus Xu Jingyuan and Li Yiting, a total of 8 people.

Waiting for Li Yiting to push the door and walk into this place called "Longwan" The first is because of the richness of the meal, I saw a huge glass table in the room, and a large bouquet of flowers and plants in the center of the table, maybe there are a few sculptures, and there are ten big dishes on the table, two vegetarian dishes, a dessert and a crockpot soup: the main dish is a big lobster weighing at least two catties with teeth and claws, followed by stir-fried Enyou snail, braised cream crab, salt-baked hemp shrimp, steamed grouper, chilled ivory mussel sashimi, dry pot small yellow cattle, white-cut Dongshan goat, pepper and salt pigeon, crispy sauce duck; the only two vegetarian dishes are cucumber flowers and stir-fried carob beans in the soup; a dessert durian crisp; a soup is mountain turtle dragon and phoenix soup。

The second is that when he entered the door, he found that the person sitting next to Liu Yi was actually the beautiful woman who was not a stranger - the beautiful Tang Qing, who went and returned so quickly for some reason.

Li Yiting was slightly surprised, Wan Yongkun was inevitably cramped, but Xu Jingyuan was so happy that his facial features were crowded together, and he was able to eat a large piece of food and be accompanied by a beautiful woman, and it was not in vain to come today.

At this time, there are two empty chairs at the table facing the door of the box, and I don't know what big people are left; Liu Yi sits on the right side of the empty chair, Tang Qing sits on the left side of the empty chair, behind Liu Yi is Director Hou, and there are two empty chairs, followed by Wen Jiulin, behind Tang Qing is Liu Shangrong, Zhang Huaizhi, and there are three young people sitting behind, no need to think that it is the driver of three units, so full of people, it is not a bureau of 8 people at all.

Seeing Li Yiting walk in, the people in the house immediately stood up, Wen Jiulin trotted a few steps enthusiastically, leading him to sit on Liu Yi's left, this time Li Yiting was a little surprised and hurriedly excused himself, to be honest, he rarely coped with the dinner, and he was not mentally prepared for such a big pomp in such a small village.

Liu Yi stretched out his hand to pull him to the chair and sit down, and said with a smile: "Director Li, let's follow the customs, Secretary Tang heard that Director Li is coming, and he will come over to drink two cups with you in person." ”

Li Yiting was stunned and immediately understood, obviously Xu Jingyuan did not help him keep the false identity of the director, and it was very likely that he deliberately exaggerated, and the little good feeling he had just had for him was instantly extinguished.

That's fine, if you come here, you can be safe.

Li Yiting didn't shirk again, he needed to rethink the overall plan of action this time, and he didn't answer for a while, but the others thought that he was acquiescing, so he became polite on the side.

Seeing Li Yiting sit down, everyone also sat down, and the two empty chairs next to Director Hou were naturally reserved for Xu Jingyuan and Wan Yongkun, Xu Jingyuan also actively let Wan Yongkun to the upper seat, which made Wan Yongkun very embarrassed, but fortunately, the master was sitting on the main seat, and he settled down a little.

The waiter quickly poured the wine, and poured a glass of white wine and a glass of red wine into the crystal clear goblet, and suddenly the aroma of the wine overflowed, and the strange emotions in the box seemed to be dispelled by the wine in an instant, which is the charm of the dinner.

Secretary Tang Dongzhou walked into the box at the most appropriate time.

It is definitely a leadership art to not let everyone wait for a long time and must be the last to arrive, and the time is just right.

The only difference was that he didn't say a kind word after entering the door, and when he saw everyone in the room standing up, he just made a gesture for everyone to sit down, which showed his usual majesty.

After Secretary Tang sat down in the main seat, the box was instantly quieter, and finally Liu Yi spoke: "Secretary Tang, do you think we start first?"

Tang Dongzhou didn't answer him, but turned his head and asked Tang Qing: "Why didn't Xiao Meng come?"

Tang Qing pouted: "It seems that you don't know that he doesn't like to socialize, when has he been here." ”

Tang Dongzhou glared at her angrily, and sighed for a long time.

Only then did he turn his head to Li Yiting and said, "This must be Director Li." ”

Li Yiting smiled: "It's Xiao Ke." ”

Tang Dongzhou smiled slightly: "I have admired it for a long time, and I am very welcome to Director Li to visit our small Boone Village, which really makes us shine." ”

Li Yiting naturally knew that this was a kind word, and he also knew that he could only be neither humble nor arrogant at this time: "Secretary Tang is polite, I am a small director, how dare I let Secretary Tang personally come forward to entertain me, it is really embarrassing." ”

Tang Dongzhou said lightly: "It should be." ”

I don't know why he immediately moved the topic to another place: "The little girl Tang Qing has been pampered since she was a child, and she is about to run for thirty, and so far the marriage has not been settled. ”

Li Yiting secretly wondered, it seems that this Secretary Tang does not know about Meng Biao's disappearance this time, since this is the case, it seems that it is not appropriate to mention it during the meal, and the subsequent investigation may have to be extremely cautious.

Everyone was laughing on the side, but Tang Qing was a little impatient: "Eat and eat, you have to talk about these uninteresting things every time, or I will leave first, and you will eat slowly?"

Wen Jiulin hurriedly said: "I said Miss Tang, this hasn't started yet, how do you want to go, don't be impatient, don't be impatient." ”

Tang Qing suddenly said angrily: "What's your business! Don't mess with me." Wen Jiulin immediately shrank his head and didn't dare to speak.

Tang Dongzhou shouted: "It's really not polite at all. Okay, eat, eat. He finally smiled kindly, and raised the chopsticks first, but first gave Tang Qing a piece of lobster meat, Tang Qing pulled the chopsticks, and it seemed that the boss was not happy.

"Don't be idle, let's move our chopsticks. Liu Yi hurriedly beckoned, thinking it was not strange.

The wine has passed three rounds, and the dishes have passed five flavors.

Tang Dongzhou said slowly: "Listen to our President Liu, Director Li personally came to the door this time for the sake of his son-in-law?" He was obviously referring to Meng Biao, but Tang Qing pouted again, looking disapproving.

Li Yiting also had a few glasses of liquor in his stomach at this time, and his head was a little dizzy, and he didn't know how to answer for a while, did this Secretary Tang know or not?

Before he could speak, Liu Yi spoke first: "What Secretary Tang means is that there is actually nothing wrong with Xiao Meng's side, young man, he loves to toss." ”

Li Yiting was moved, nodded and said: "I think it is probably because this Meng Gongzi didn't greet the institute in advance, so he just said goodbye, this is not a big deal, we just do it routinely." ”

Tang Qing finally couldn't help but say: "It's not once or twice, why are you all so idle?" I really admire you, can you do something serious when you have time." ”

Li Yiting was secretly surprised.

Tang Dongzhou sighed again and said: "Director Li, you don't know, this Xiao Meng is the child of my deceased, he is a very good person, but it's a pity that his personality is stubborn, and sometimes he is inevitably emotional. ”

He continued to talk to himself: "It's okay to teach these young people a lesson, let them know the seriousness, and stop messing around." ”

Tang Qing snorted: "I declare, they don't include me here. ”

Director Hou, who has never spoken, is always so to the point: "You guys can always let us have a meal together with this little family matter, but I don't know what kind of leader will come next time, and what the reception specifications will be, which is very exciting." Secretary Tang, I think this marriage will take its time, lest we have nowhere to eat in the future. "I didn't expect him to make a joke.

Tang Dongzhou shook his head: "Alas, you didn't mess with my food, it's just embarrassing for Xiao Wen, you have to break the bill every time, and you can ask me to personally reimburse some expenses when you go back." Naturally, he said Wen Jiulin.

Wen Jiulin immediately came to his senses: "Where is Secretary Tang, I usually don't invite you, I don't rely on your help for this small business, it's purely voluntary." ”

Everyone laughed, and soon returned to the gonzo at the dinner table.

The rest of the time is nothing more than to continue to push the cup and change the lamp, and everyone is also happy, and the atmosphere is very warm, as if it is not Li Yiting who came to investigate the case, but came here to visit relatives and friends.

This meal made Li Yiting, who had always been calm, a little foggy.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

The meal was eaten until about three o'clock in the afternoon, and after Li Yiting said goodbye to the leaders, he and Wan Yongkun returned to No. 38 Niu Street drunk.

To be honest, Li Yiting really didn't expect that his unplanned "rash moves" would attract so many leaders in important positions, but this is fine, sooner or later, it is better to meet sooner or later, and it is better to see you sooner rather than later, and you can also make yourself aware of the situation, this case is far more complicated than it seems on the surface.

Wan Yongkun is really drunk, this young man is still tender, and when he arrives in the city, others are polite and think that when he is in a mountain village, the neighbors drink wine and eat meat in large bowls, so in the end he always puts himself down first. Although Li Yiting's stomach was a little uncomfortable and his face was slightly red, his mind became more and more sober, which is what makes him special, as a criminal investigation professional, he must stay sober at all times, even if he has drunk.

So after he returned to the hotel, he simply washed his face with cold water, and then took Meng Biao's personal file and looked at it.

In addition to some copies of certificates, there is a detailed personal information form, which is filled in by myself at a glance, and the whole form is strong and concise, roughly as follows:

"Technician Meng Biao's Personal Information Form"

……

……

Li Yiting knew that this should have been filled in two years ago, and at this time he was examining the color photo very carefully, trying to find something.

Although he had not seen Meng Biao himself, he had already heard Xu Jingnan describe this person, who seemed to be a big fat man with a boil on his head.

The person on the file is the big fat man with mysterious whereabouts?

He didn't know if there was a problem with the information or something, so he looked through all the information from beginning to end, and many big red seals told him that it was not only some years old but also not easy to fake.

So he decided to call Xu Jingnan immediately, he vaguely felt that time was precious, and any artificial delay could cause unforeseen consequences.

Especially after this unique drinking game.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Xu Jingnan was also a little surprised when he saw the photo, although the ID photo may be quite different from himself, but the difference is so big but it is rare, the person in the photo not only has a handsome face, clear eyebrows, and his eyes are resolute and bright, and Meng Biao, who has met him in a hurry, is undoubtedly a world of difference.

He didn't dare to make remarks casually, after all, the last meeting was a bit sudden, even a little scary.

Besides, as a forensic science graduate, he also knows that the changes in people's face shape and body are unpredictable after two years, but some facial features should still have traces to follow, so Xu Jingnan put down the thin piece of paper after about ten minutes.

"Although I can't be sure, the person in the photo should be Meng Biao I have seen. He said softly.

Li Yiting really admired the young man in front of him at the moment, this person who claimed to be a student was at least not confused by simple appearances, it was not easy at this age.

Maybe he can become his right-hand man in the future, of course, this is just his flash, after all, people are still public servants who eat public food and have a formal establishment.

"How did you know that?" he asked curiously, knowing that he was still a student about human characteristics.

Xu Jingnan picked up the photo and pointed to the person on it: "Teacher, you see, no matter how a person's face changes, he is fatter or thinner, but the shape and details of his nose should not change much, and the other is the eyes, which will change from time to time, but the contours of the eyes are often difficult to change; He paused, and seemed to say to himself, "If I were to meet him again, it would be clear in about half an hour." ”

Li Yiting nodded, and said after a long time: "What do you think about this matter?"

Of course, Xu Jingnan understood the teacher's question, and it was impossible to just ask about the photo, so he pondered for a long time before saying: "If the person in the photo is Meng Biao, then he must have suffered some major changes in the past two years." ”

The two fell silent.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

In the following days, Li Yiting still asked Xu Jingnan to try his best to pay attention to Meng Biao's every move, and monitor it through Zhou Wengang if necessary.

In addition, he arranged for Wan Yongkun to keep an eye on Tang Qing's movements at all times.

Although he himself was not sure, there was something else to investigate.

However, the feedback from all parties disappointed him, not only Meng Biao lived in a simple place and never left the gate of the research institute, but Tang Qing was also a three-point line, concentrating on his work.

is a dignified "director of criminal investigation" himself, and he doesn't know what to do.

Seven days laterβ€”

Li Yiting finally picked up the phone and dialed Chen Tianyu.

He thought it was time to ask the old lame man what his mother's intentions were!
