Volume 1 Crossing the rivers and lakes and involving temples Chapter 11 Handling Cases by the Supervision Division
The three of them went into the restaurant, found a window and sat down, ordered four dishes and two pots of wine, and began to eat. During the banquet, Qin Xiaoqin and Lin Wu kept pulling Ye Chen to drink, but Ye Chen had never drunk since he was so old, and he kept shirking. Qin Xiaoqin and Lin Wu both looked at him with a smile, and Lin Wu asked, "Brother, you haven't ever drunk a bar?" ”
When Ye Chen was asked like this, his face immediately turned red, and he saw Lin Wu and Qin Xiaoqin laughing. Qin Xiaoqin stood up and shouted, "Little Er, bring us three big bowls." ”
When Lin Wu heard Qin Xiaoqin say this, he couldn't stop laughing, no matter what, he had to get this brother drunk today. At this time, Qin Xiaoqin turned to Lin Wu again and asked, "Lin Wu, I seem to remember that there are rules in your army that you can't drink." ”
Lin Wu thought for a moment and replied: "If you are not on duty in the army, you don't have to abide by this rule." ”
Lin Wu took a sip of wine and recalled: "I think back then, when I was a little soldier, the first big drunk in my life was when General Lin drunk me. At that time, General Lin was only a five-rank lieutenant, and some went home for the holidays, some went out to drink together, and some stayed on duty in the army. But at that time, I didn't have a home, I didn't know where to go, and I didn't know anyone well when I first entered the barracks, so the general called a few other recruits who were about the same as me, and went to a small wine store to have a drink. In fact, the general's wife was still there at that time, but in order to make us feel not lonely, the general endured not going home for the holiday, and accompanied our brothers to get drunk together. ”
As he spoke, Lin Wu's eyes turned red, and he drained the wine in the bowl in one gulp. Ye Chen was also moved, a general who takes his subordinates so seriously, it's not bad.
Lin Wu waved his hand and shouted, "Little Er, continue to drink!" ”
Qin Xiaoqin patted Lin Wu's shoulder and said, "Brother, don't be so sensational, don't say you can't drink this wine." ”
Lin Wu glanced at him, picked up the bowl full of wine, and said to Ye Chen: "Ye Chen, welcome you to join our Dragon Armor Army, in the future, if you have something to do, just words, as long as I Lin Wu can do it, I will do my best." ”
Ye Chen was also moved by Lin Wu's words, growing so big, except for Chen Bing, Ye Chen has not made other sincere friends. Through these few days of getting along, Ye Chen found that Lin Wu had a bold temperament, was informal, easy-going, and definitely worthy of deep friendship. Then he picked up the bowl and touched it with Lin Wu, and drank it all.
Seeing this, Qin Xiaoqin applauded, poured wine for the two of them, stood up and said to the two: "I, Qin Xiaoqin, am not a hypocritical person, both of them are so refreshing, I will do one." ”
Ye Chen didn't know if he was infected by the atmosphere, so he took the initiative to stand up with the bowl and said, "Brother Qin, I'll accompany you." After saying that, he slurred a bowl of wine and went down again.
Lin Wu saw Ye Chen, who was drinking for the first time, and said, "Brother, the first time you drink, you are so bold, I like it." Come, brother, I'll go with you one more. ”
After Ye Chen drank a few bowls of wine, he was surprised to find that the wine he drank didn't seem to be drunk except for a little belly support. On the other hand, Qin Xiaoqin and Lin Wu, who were sitting opposite, were both slightly drunk.
Qin Xiaoqin looked at Ye Chen and said, "Brother, I see that you have a flexible brain, why don't you mix with me, I guarantee that you will be happier than in the barracks." ”
Lin Wu was not happy, what happened to the barracks, that is also the place where the men have lived for seven or eight years, just about to reason with Qin Xiaoqin, he saw Ye Chen put his index finger on his mouth and shushed, signaling the two not to speak. Lin Wu and Qin Xiaoqin didn't drink too much, and immediately nodded and quieted down.
There were three men chatting at a table next to him, and the one in the green robe said, "Have you heard about it lately?" Boss Xu of the Black Snake Gang died, and died in the prison of the government office. The man looked to both sides, and saw that no one noticed them, so he continued: "One of my brothers was on an errand in the government prison, according to him, Boss Xu was strangled to death, and he disguised himself as suicide afterwards. ”
Qin Xiaoqin smiled when he heard this, staring at Ye Chen and Lin Wu with both eyes, and his hand kept poking at his chest, as if to say that buddy is not awesome! Ye Chen and Lin Wu picked up the bowl and touched it, and one of them took a sip, as if they didn't see Qin Xiaoqin. Qin Xiaoqin rolled his eyes at the two of them, and took a sip of wine by himself, causing Ye Chen and Lin Wu to almost laugh.
The green robe said again: "The Black Snake Gang is the biggest gang in our Annan Province, and it must not be easy for someone to move Boss Xu, this time there will be a good show." After saying that, he and the other two toasted a glass of wine.
The man in the gray robe opposite him stretched his head forward and said to the two: "I also heard that it is said that Lin Yanyan, the daughter of General Lin Da, was kidnapped at the entrance of the Dongcheng Caishi that day and was taken into custody of the government office.......
The middle-aged man, who had not spoken, spoke: "What do you know! Let me tell you, the Black Snake Gang has done all the evil in our country, and it must be that the imperial court has long been unable to stand it, and it just happened that the Black Snake Gang was destroyed by the kidnapping of Miss Lin. ”
Ye Chen and the others laughed when they heard it, and Lin Wu whispered, "It really sounds like that." ”
Qin Xiaoqin sighed: "The common people are really terrible after this tea and dinner, and if it continues like this, it is estimated that Xu Jing will soon become a secret agent of the enemy country." ”
Ye Chen didn't care, signaled the two of them not to speak, and continued to listen to the three of them chatting.
The man in the green robe said regretfully: "It's a pity that the little jade in the Cuihualou, just a few days after hugging Xu Jing's thigh, Xu Jing died, and it was really enough to carry it." ”
Ye Chen, Qin Xiaoqin, and Lin Wu's eyes lit up when they heard this, and they glanced at each other, Lin Wu turned around with a wine bowl and smiled at the few people at the table next to him: "A few big brothers, isn't this little jade very beautiful?" ”
The man in the green robe looked at him suspiciously and asked, "Who are you?" Who let you eavesdrop on a few of us. ”
Lin Wu saw that a few people didn't buy it, and he wasn't annoyed, after all, he had a request for others, and said with a harmless smile on his face: "Our brothers just said that they would go to Cuihualou after drinking, but they are not familiar with the situation." But I heard that the Oiran Xiaoyu there was taken care of, and I don't know if we can see it when we go. ”
The green robe looked at Lin Wu with a smile and said, "Count yourself lucky, now there is no one to support her, as long as you have silver, you can listen to music and drink anything." ”
Lin Wu looked at Qin Xiaoqin and Ye Chen and said, "Let's go, go and meet this Oiran Xiaoyu." ”
Cuihualou, just now Lin Wu and Ye Chen had already come here to understand the situation, and the old bustard shook his head at that time, insisting that Xu Jing had never come. When the old bustard saw Ye Chen and Lin Wu again, he was obviously stunned for a moment, and then ran to the backyard, but was stopped by Qin Xiaoqin, who was quick-eyed. The old bustard didn't panic, turned his head and said to Qin Xiaoqin: "This guest officer, take a break, I'll call the girls." ”
Qin Xiaoqin said: "Let's look for Xiaoyu, where is she?" ”
The old bustard was embarrassed: "Xiaoyu is not feeling well today, it is inconvenient to meet guests, please understand." We've got other girls here, I'll call them. After speaking, he wanted to leave, Lin Wu stepped forward with an arrow, blocked the old bustard's way, pointed at Qin Xiaoqin and said to her, "Do you know who he is?" ”
The old bustard looked at Qin Xiaoqin and said, "Who?" ”
Qin Xiaoqin glanced at Lin Wu, slowly took out the waist card of the Supervision Division Qianhu and said: "The Supervision Department handles the case, if you don't want to go to the Supervision Department to sit down, just explain honestly." ”
The old bustard was blind, and after a long time, he pointed upstairs in a panic: "The first room on the left-hand side upstairs, Xiaoyu's room." ”
A few people immediately ran upstairs, and at this time, there were already many people watching downstairs, and you and I were talking about it one by one.
In the room, a woman with heavy makeup was sitting at the table, and she was not surprised to see Ye Chen and his party come in, as if she had been waiting for a few of them.
Qin Xiaoqin got straight to the point and said: "Presumably Miss Xiaoyu already knows our intentions, we are from the Supervision Department, responsible for investigating Xu Jing's case." ”
Xiaoyu said unhurriedly: "There are many guests who come to me, all of them come to drink and listen to music, and the Xu Jing you said is just one of them, I have no impression." ”
Ye Chen looked at her and said, "Presumably you already know what he sent, if you don't tell us, the people behind the scenes will come to you, and you won't be so polite to us then." ”
After hearing what he said, the woman named Xiaoyu sighed and said, "He was still with me the day before he was arrested by you, and I didn't expect that in just a few days, he was already separated by heaven and earth. It's ridiculous that I'm stupidly expecting him to help me get out of this big cage. After speaking, he lowered his head and smiled bitterly.
Ye Chen stepped forward and asked, "Miss Xiaoyu, can you tell me if Xu Jing has any abnormal situation with you recently?" ”
Xiao Yu raised his head and looked at him and said, "The people who came are all looking for flowers and asking the willows to come, just to have fun, what can be abnormal." ”
Qin Xiaoqin asked, "Did he mention the eldest lady of the Lin family to you?" ”
Xiaoyu replied with certainty, "No." ”
Ye Chen asked again, "Then has he seen anyone here with you?" Or something you've never heard of? ”
Xiao Yu seemed to remember something after being reminded by him, and replied: "One day in the middle of the night, one of his subordinates came to him in a hurry, and the two of them talked outside for a long time. I was sleeping, and I heard them talk about generals, knives, and the black market, and I didn't care about anything else. It's normal to say this to people like him, licking blood from the knife every day, so I didn't care even if I heard it. ”
Ye Chen stepped forward and said to Qin Xiaoqin: "Lord Qin, since we can find her, the murderer must also want to find it, I suggest that the little jade girl be taken to the Supervision Department for protection, so that she can tell us in time if she remembers anything." ”
Qin Xiaoqin nodded and said, "That's right, Miss Xiaoyu, you follow me back to the Supervision Department to make sure you're okay." Otherwise, the murderer will come to you, and I am afraid that it will be more than lucky. ”
Xiaoyu was frightened, and it took a while to react, and said, "The folk girl listens to the adults, but I'm afraid that my mother won't let me go." ”
Qin Xiaoqin said coldly: "We supervise the department to handle the case, and we can't help her." ”
